DULUTH Ne2ys- Tribune:

DULUTH Neqvs- Tribune: Mr..
Towne is not member of the A.
P. A., and we have never heard it
charged here that he was. He is
not Catholic. We do not know
what his religious belief may be,
and have never taken the trouble
to inquire. He is, however, a Re-
publican, and his candidacy for
congress should have nothing to
do with anything not connected
with the political principles which
divide the people. 1t is time for
this whole talk to stop.

DULUTH Tribune: Adam Bede
must not feel too bad over the dis
affection of certain Duluth Re-
publicans. There is not the dis
affection reported. If he wants
to see real disafection, and real
party desertions, he should come
up here and look at the broken
ranks of his party brethren. The
list of Democrats who have ceased
to be Democrats is too large to adj
NIT of publication.

The recent Populist State con-
vention set one example which the
conventions of the older parties
would do we'll to follow. The
first thing the Populists did was
to construct and adopt a platform;
then when a man was placed in
nomination he was required to de-
clare his fealty to the principles of
the party as enunciated in the
platform before he could be the
nominee.

The Foreston correspondent of the
Milaca Times suggested that Foreston
has some good timber for county
treasurer. Commenting on the sug-
gestion Editor Warner says: $50 has
Milaca, Borgholm, Greenbush and in
fact every town in the county. We
are of the opinion that we now have
one of the best treasurers in the State,
and the best Mile Laos county has ever
had, and we say this with all due re-
spect to former officers. We see or
hear of no great desire for change. y
The UNION heartily endorses every
word of the above. Mr.. Nicely is COM
petent and a strictly honest man. Be-
sides he attends to his own business
and does not concern himself about
other peoples affairs. He has host
of friends and no enemies within the
borders of Mile Laos county. Nobody
ever stops to inquire what his politics
are.

ANOTHER destructive fire in Min.
neapolis last Monday afternoon.
The fire started in the Shevelin-
Carpenter lumber yards. About
30,000,000 feet of lumber, the
Omaha roads round-house and
scores of freight cars loaded with
valuable merchandise were de-
stroyed-in other words property
to the amount of 100000 was
wiped out of existence.

The leading Democratic papers
of the Sixth congressional district
are opposed to fusion with the
Populists. Hon. III. G. Stivers,
of the Brainerd Journal, thinks
that the three parties Republican,
Democratic and Populist-will be
about evenly divided and that the
Democrats have an equal chance
of winning. The St. Cloud Times,
the Long Prairie Leader, the Ait
kin Age and several other Demo
cratic papers take strong grounds
against fusion. If the Populists
develop as much strength as is
claimed for. them in that former
stronghold of Republicanism, St.
Louis county, these Democratic
editors reason that their party's
candidate for congress would poll
more votes than either the Repub-
lican or Populist nominee. But
no matter whether there is fusion
or notin this congressional district,
Mr.. Towne or any other Republi-
can must not take it for granted
that a nomination is equivalent to
an election.

DIR. JAMES PH1LL1Ps, of Pres

WHAT is the matter with the
Duluth Scandal? Early in the

by the entire district the Scandal
Wavers in it's support of him.

LONG PRAIRIE Leader: The
Brainerd Dispatch says that ''Min-

fusion with the Populists." You
are off, Mr.. Dispatch man. It's
the Republican editors that are
doing all the talking in favor of
Dem. Pop. fusion. The Demo
cratic sentiment is radically against
fusion.

Last Saturday evening as the writer
was boarding the caboose of a. freight
train at Elk River he noticed a hungry
but honest looking laboring man walk
ing alongside the track and talking to
a brakeman on top of one of the cars.
A few minutes later, when the train
was in motion, the brakeman rushed
into the caboose snatched up his dinner
pail and emptied the contents into the
hands of the man he had been convers-
ing with, at the same time remarking:
"You are hungrier than 1 am, and I
guess I can get along without any sup
per-" God bless that kind-hearted
brakeman.

George Harris, Coiored, OF mtddietown,
Eecaives u wound That May Cause
Death. --44...4 -,
Special cotresp,nlsncs of Every Evening.
MIDDLETowN,u Doc. ~ 6. - George
Harris, col0rcd man, who makes his
home at "Frogtawn," north Of this place,
will probably remember Christmas Day,
1894, for years to come, providing that
the wound which he received yesterday
does not prove fatal. About O'Clock in
the afternoon Harris and another
colorcd man, named John Glasgow,
became involved in some trouble, and
picking. up an axe lying near the house
Glasgow struck Harris with 1t OH the
head Il few inches aver the forehead.
The injured man fell to the ground, and
after seeing what he had done Glasg,iw
made for tho woods, dragging the axe
with him for . short distance, but after
wards dropping IL in the road. Harris was
assisted into the house by friends WHO
witnessed tho assault. The spot where
he fell and in front Of the house in
which no was taken were several large
pools of blood.
1t is probable that both men had been
drinking, but there was very little said
by either before the trouble occurred,
and those who witnessed it had no idea
Of it ending MS it did. Harris had been
in Middlcnwn during tho afternoon,
aud had gone to the home of Mr.. Burris,
u neighbUring farmer to help feed the
stock for the night. Mr.. Burris says he
MAS not drunk at the time, and after at
tending TO the duties there Harris re-
turned to tho house at Frogtown. II
seems that Glasgow was there when he
returned and that previous dispute
was renewed. But few words hud
passed between the men when Glasgow
seized an axe and made desperate
plunge at Harris head. The blow must
have been parried, for had it haen
delivered with full force the result
could hardly have been anything else
but instant death, as il was the wound
made was probably three inches long
and deep enough To almost reach the
brain.
Whom an EVERY EVENING rcpresen-
tative saw Harris, shortly after the
trouble occurred, he was lying on a
couch in the house where he had been
taken, with q rude bandage aovGr the
wound, through which blood trickled
out and over his clothing. A half dozen
frightened colored people were standing
around and no effort had been made to
secure medical assistance.
Harris talked continually and vowed
dire vengeance upon the head of his as
sailant in most emphatic terms. 1t was
stated that he had tried to use revolver
upon Glasgow before receiving the blow
with the axe, but tine colored people
who witnessed the trouble were too
much frightened to verify the statement.
Glasgow had not been captured this
morning. 1t is thought he is hiding with
friends in the neighborhood

usual hour.

ball NJ Elite Hall ON Christmas eve, and
on his way home he imbibeG too freely
OF whisky and became intoxicated. He
met Jim Cooper and proposed a wrest,
ling match. The wrestlers had attracted

Patrolman Aiken came along and took
Hayes in custody. Hayes asked for
witnesses toajustify his action in the
eyes OF the court, and was held in 300
bail for further hearlng.
Sarah kramar, coiofed, was found by

woman said it was four years since she
was drunk before, and 1t being Christ
mas, she wanted to celebrate the season
of peace on earth good will toward
men. Otherwise she would not have
tasted the eggnog. She pleaded so hard
that Judge Ball gave her another trial
and Sarah trippcd ont of the dock with
the spryness of 4.years-oli.

Every one knows that old Kris
krlnglc gladdened the hearts of hun
drods Of boys end girls in Wilmington
Tuesday, He heaped iheir stockings
with playthings and swectmeats and to-
day they are singing his praises in every
land and cline. s.
This being The case. some of the little
folks are sorry to learn that the kind.
hearted little man with the long, flow
ing locks should meet with an accident
while on his mission of charity through
the city. There was fire at No. 6i0
Orange street Tuesday morning and
the little people seem to think that Old
Kris caused it. Some say that u spark
from the chimney got tangled up in his
whiskers which broke into 4 blaze.
However, very little damage was done,
and as most of tho little boys and girls
in the city found their stockings full to
overlooking, it is safe to say Old Kris was
not badly disabled by the accident.

desires to thank the fire department, tho
police department and all others, who
worked SO hard to extinguish the flames.
