And with the march of this progress in

our boosted freedom, without which
liberty would be an idle word. In Min

ANTON MIESEN.

To no n man in Ramsey county Is
the Democratic party more indebted for
past successes than to Anton Miesen.
During the many years that he has been
a resident of st. Paul he has constantly
and energetically worked for the tri-
umph of Democratic principles, which
carries with it the assurance of good
government and public veal. As a
matter OF fact. Mr.. Miesen's work IN the
ranks of the Democracy covers a much
longer period than that which he has
lived in this city, tor in Wisconsin he
was for years one of the most prom.
inent figures in the old party. But it is
merely the object OF this sketch to touch
upon his services to the local Democ.
racy. Before Mr.. Miesen made his gallant
fight of two years ago, he had gone
through many local campaigns and
added greatly in the achievement of
many famous victories for his party.
Not a campaign has passed without see
ing him spending his time and money
literally for the cause. whether or not

a thorough-going business man; his
efficiency and integrity could never be
questioned. and that he would make an
excellent sheriff of Ramsey County is
admitted generally. He was sheriff of
Calumet county, Wisconsin. for several
years. and this experience will doubt
less stand him in good stead when he
takes charge Of the Ramsey county
office.

NEW YORK DID NEIL

The New York Democrats have given
the country their best assurance of their
confidence of success in the coming
election by the nomination of Senator
Hill for governor. The acceptance Of
the nomination by the senator is EVIL
dence that, in the judgment of the best
informed man in that state, the Demo-
Gratis will carry it. This is the local as
pect of the case. There is a broader one
in the whole ticket. 1t indicates to the
national Democracy that factions are
united and the party presents a solid
front. The placing of Dan Lock- wood
next to Hill. Cieveland's old law partner
and staunch adherent, Indicates the
union of the two opposing factions, and
the nomination of Judge Gaynor for the
court of appeals is the triumph of that
better sentiment in the party which
stood behind the judge when he made
his attack on McKane which sen the
boss of Gravesend to Sing Sing. The
New York Democrats have done well.

on the German sugar crop has been

or more, in spite of the shutting down
by the trusts in this country under the
pretense that the tariff had made pro-
duction Improbable. The drop of a
fourth of a cent in the last two weeks
was due to the necessity of keeping the
domestic price below the importing
