Gen. Becker and they are going to do it.
Some of them threw away their votes
on Mr.. Owen four years ago, thinking
that he could be elected. They will not
do so again. Two years ago a few good
Democrats did the same thing, out of
| regard for the brilliant Sage Of Ninin-
| ger.
But 1t Is time to stop throwing Demo-
| cratic votes away.
Ii the Republicans want to defeat
| Owen let them vote for Gen. Becker.
Ii the PopullsiS want to oust the state
| house let them vote for Gen. Becker.
1t is idle, aud absurd as well, for
10000 Populists 10 expect 100000 Demo
! Gratis TO give way to them. They will
not do 1t.
The GLOBE believes that Gen. Becker
| will be elected. The Democratic state
central committee believes the same
| thing. Both base their belief on the
same thing, reports from ali parts of
| the state showing that in many
| places Gen. Becker is holding the full
LaWler vote, while In no county is he
| falling behind the Wilson vote of
1890. This will give him about $4,000
votes, 1900 less than were cast for
| Mr.. Lawler and 1000 more than Judge
| Wilson received. 1t will be enough to
elect him by at least 5000, without con-
| sidering the large number OF Republic
cans in st. Paul and throughout the
state who will vote for him because of
| long acquaintance, the confidence they
| repose in him, and friendship. A few
| of these reports, as made to the state
| committe, follows:
County Reports.
LIE Sueur-The prospects for a large
| Democratic vote in LIE SueuS are grow
| ing brighter every day, and we now eX-
| pect to give Gen. Becker more than the
| full Lawler plurality.
Mower-The prospects for a good
vote for Gen. Becker and the state tick
| ct have improved greatly during the
| vast few days, and the Democrats are
| getting into line. This has been brought
about largely by the feeling that Gen.
Becker can be elected by the Demo>
| cratic vote. Owen will draw as heavily
! from the Republicans here as from the
| Democrats.
| Lac Qul Parle-In one town of this
county about fifty Democrats. along
with lot o. Republicans, had an
nounced their intention of voting for
| Owen. | called Oh all of them 1 could
reach. and forty are now in line for
! Gen. Becker. We have not many Dem
Ocrats in this county, but those we have
are going to vote for Gen. Becker.

| Rock-1 am doing all l can to secure
| the full Democratic vote in this county
| for the state ticket, including Hon. a
| Biermann, whom have known too long
| to take any stock IN the opposition to
him. He is a tit and worthy associate
on the ticket with that true friend OF
the people and sterling Democrat, Gen.
| George l.. Becket.
Stevens-I am glad the prospects are
so bright. The Populists are very strong
| here, but we shall hold our own on the
vote Of 1890. The Democrats here are
doing all III their power for the state
| ticket.
Morrison-I am glad to report that
our grand old Democratic county is ours
| this year by more than the usual maj jor-
| ity. Our Democrats are hard at work
and are determined TO get every Demo-
crat to the polls next Tuesday. am
| confident that Gen. Becker and the
| Whole state ticket will have at least 600
| plurality. Democrats are coming back
from the Populsts, while the Republic
| ans are remaining.

looks as though We shall get an in
creased vote for our state ticket in
| Mile Lacs this year. There are no
| Democrats who not in liue for Gen.

stronghold; nevertheless, Gen. Becker

Gen. Becker and will vote for him.
st. LOuis-Tower-Gen. Becker will
receive the regular Democratic vote on
| the range.
Duluth-We have taken pains to reg
| lSter all Democrats, and they are for

where largely made up, were strongly
Inclined toward Owen, but they are re-
turning to the party, and will vote for
| Gen. Becker on election day.
Grant-Gen. Becker will receive the
Wilson vote OF 1890. at least, here. We
hope to do better.

and will give Gen. Becker more than
the usual number of votes.

since 1890, and the Democrats will gain
over the vote of that year. Gen. Becker
Will get good vote, including some
Republicans and many Democrats who
voted for Owen four years ago.
Carlton-We are leaving nothing un-
done for the success of the Democratic
party, aud We expect to poll larger
Democratic vote in Carlton county this

Gen. Becker receiving more than the
Lawler vote, while Maj. Baldwin will
carry this heretofore solIdly Republican
county.
Murray-Ihere is no Waverlng among
the Democrats in this county, and Gen.
Becker will get the Lawler vote. The
