MINNEAPOLIS.
NOTE AND COMMENT.

There is great rejoicing among the
sensible and conservative Populist ele-
ment over the isnominious defeat in the
district court OF the So-called middie-of-
the-road men. The latter attempted to
have the names OF the Democratic jul
dicial nominees taken off the POpulist
ticket and failed. 1t is but fair to the
men who believe in Populistic doctrines
and intend to support the ticket to in
form them that the whole scheme was
Republican from the very start. 1t was
worked in behalf of the Republican
judicial nominees and Republican mon
ey paid the expenses. The whole deal
will now rebound to the disadvantage
of these Republican schelnerS. They
have not only lost their money but
created a sentiment in favor of every
Democrat on the pupulist ticket.
Mayor EuStis, it Is said, will remain
in the city for few dayS.and then start
out again on his stamping tour for Gov.
Nelson. In the meantime it is very
evident that the city is running sans
mayor, sans secretary, sans policy
For this it might be said, God be
praised" were it not for the fact that
great many taxpayers are wondering
Why a man who Is paid to ofliciate as
chief executive does not remain at
home and attend to the city'S fairs.
IT is certain he is not paid for stumping
the state in behalf of nominee for gov
ernor.
The Democrats of the Ninth ward are
huStlerS. This is evinced every day,
and especially when meetings are held.
Tomorrow night the Young Mems
Democratic club will hold meeting,
and cordial invitation is extended to
the voters in general.
The Fifth Ward Democratic club will
meet tonight at the rooms OF the con-
gressional committee, Harmonic build
ing. Business of Importance is to be
transacted.
The stonecutters of the city. it is I'M

Democratic ticket and vote for Mr..
THAN. a meeIing of the local union
will be held Friday night nj which some
action regarding Endorsements of candi-
dates will be taken. George Meyer, of
the Democratic city committee.is presi-
dent of the union.
The Republicans are making great
preparations for the rally to be held to.

Tom Reed. of Maine, is to speak. Mr..

ton will be held in the afternoon in the

tertainment can be secured at the Ly-

Henry Aurbach, Jew, comes out
with statement that there were $50
Jews present at the Republican rally
held III the Sixth ward last Saturday

endeavoring to make capital by lying
about the Hebrews. Aurbach is queer
character. At one time he sold sus-
penders On Hennepin avenue, and for
the supposed work he did among the
Hebrews was appointed to the police
force by Mayor Winston. He was dis
charged from this position and became
a deputy marshal during the strike.
Now he is a Republican for hire, being
in the employ of the Republican city
committee.
Aid. Snyder. of the Second ward. is a
capable and clever gentleman. He is
staunch Republican, but for all that
he cannot swallow the dose certain of
the people in the Seventh ward are en-
deavorng to force ON the ecouncil
the reelection of AID Wood
ward. Monday night Aid Snyder made
speech in the Seventh ward in which
he raked Woodward's record fore and
aft. Among other things he said, re-
ferring to Woodward:
You have had an incubus hanging
about your neck for some years now.
He has Brought disgrace and shame
upon the good people of this ward. He
has made it the butt and ridicule
through the city. He has hoodwinked
and bulldoZed you and betrayed you.''
1t will probably be excellent news for
the Republicans of this city to learn
that they are to be traded off like so
many sheep. Robert Pratt, the candi-
date for mayor on the forlorn hope, will
no doubt feel highly gratified when he
S made aware of the fact that his own
committeeman are planning to turn him
down. The Republican state CEN
trail committee has made some
kind of deal with the local
campaign committee. whereby Pratt is
to be traded off for Nelson. This is
