Favorable Reports From
All Quarters.

Judge Wilson's Vote Will Be

Line,
VETERANS HARD AT WORK
AND IT IS ENOUGH TO ELECT.
Maj. BaldWin'S Gallant Rec
Opd--GoS sip From the
State.

Six days ago the Democratic mana
Gers said that Gen. Becker would be
elected governor if the Democrats gave
him their votes.
Yesterday the same gentlemen, after
receiving reports from all parts of the
state. said the d emocrats of Minnesota
are going to vote for Gen. Becker and
he will be elected.
The difference in these expressions
shows better than anything else can the
improvement in the condition OF the
fighting and working Democracy of the
state. The only thing the Democrats
of Minnesota wanted to know was
whether or not there was any use of
voting for Gen. Becker. The GLOBE
showed them conclusively that the
Democrats of Minnesota. if they stand
Loyalty by Gen. Becker, can and will
win. This was enough, and where there
was faltering week ago there is the
firmest feeling now, and the Democracy
of Minnesota that went through thirty
years of successive defeats without fall
tering Is now moving forward as united
as ever and confident of victory.
Democrats Are Working.
Yesterday Chairman McDermott re-
ceived about fifty letters from different
counties outside the Twin Cities, and in
every one was the news that the DEM
ocrats are shaking off their letharg Y
and getting IN harness for Gen. Bee ker.
Crow Wing county said: 1--WE shall
hold the Lawler vote of two years ago
for Gen. Becker and hope to increase it
some."
From Little Falls came the good news
that Morrison county will give both
Becker and Baldwin pluralities of at
least 600. "The Democrats of old Nor
rison are in line, and if as good results
are shown in other counties Gen. Beck.
er's election is assured; $780,
Mobiles county sends the most favor
able report of all, for there the Dem-
ocrats have perfected the best organiza-
ton the county has ever known, and
the David B. Hill Campaign club prom
ises to increase the vote cast for Lawler
two years ago. This club has members
in every town and village in the county
and is doing magnificent work.
In Rock, Murray, Pipestone, Red
wood, Lyon, Brown, Nicollet, Chippewa
and FarIbault the leaders are all report
ing that there is now every reason to
expect the full vote of two years ago.
while the Republicans are losing large
ly to Owen. In Blue Earth Owen will
get considerable vote, but Gen. Becker
| will hold his own with Nelson, and the
| latter will not have more than the nor
NAL plurality, if he secures that.
I'm the Valley.
Scott, Carver, Mcleod, Stearns, Wa
basha and WinOna report very much
| improved condition in the Democratic
| ranks, old Scott promising not less than
| 1,400 plurality for both Gen. Becker and
| Congressman Hall.
"While We are divide on the county
fight" says the Scott county corre-
| spondent. 1--WE are all for the state
ticket and our popular and able member
of congress, o. NJ. Hall. and all factions
are working harder than ever for the

In Carver the Democrats have splen-
| did county ticket, and are moving OH to
| victory in better condition and with
| fairer prospects than ever. The regular
| plurality of from 600 to 500 is promised
| for both Becker and Hall. Mcleod
county is another of the districts where
| the Democrats are doing their full duty.
Besides sending glorious old Sam
Brown back to the senate, they are
going to increase their plurallties for
both Gen. Becker and Congressman
Hall.
"Hall will receive at least 200 RepuD-
/ lican votes in Mcleod this year." says
the correspondent. ''He has many
friends and admirers among the Repub-
licans, while his opponent has a great
many Republican enemies, as well as
many who, while they cannot be called
enemies, are opposed to his methods"
The First District.
In the First district counties the
Democrats are holding the vote Of two
years ago, and since the people have
made up their minds that the election Of
Gen. Becker is possible they are work.

coming from Fillmore, Houston, Mower
and Steele. while Senator Craig is stir.
ring things up around Waseca.
From the Seventh district come re-
ports showing that the vote of Gen.
Becker is far ahead of the vote given
Judge Wilson four years ago. In Polk.
for example, the Becker vote is esti-
mated at 1000. In 1890 Judge Wilson
received S54 votes in this county, while
Merriam had but 6S3. Two years ago the
vote stood: Lawler, $50; Nelson. 1.267 !;
Donnelly. 3, 1873. This year the Demo-
Gratis freely concede 800 of the Lawler
votes TO Owen, but claim that at least
400 of the Nelson vote will go to Owen
this year, increasing the vote of the lat
ter to nearly the figure of 1890, when Mr..
Owen had 1924.

In 1890 the vote of Klttson county
