the hall where the Senatorial commit
tee called the convention to order, but
remained on the outside, bolted the
legal convention, and went into a
boilers convention that manufactured
20 delegates out Of a single man from
this county, and nominated Sam. Pet
erson.
Maj. Smith is in open revolt against
the Republican party of this district.
He is opposing the Republican nomi-
nee. He will have charge of the funds
for this district, and will use them for
Sam. Peterson. As recognized Re-
publican he will assist in the election
of a Democrat or the success of the
dirtiest horde of political smellers
that ever dragged a campaign through
the mire-Peterson, Hays Smith ct al.
The GAZETTE is satisfied that Bill
Merriam is backing Peterson. Gov.
Nelson is certainly aware of existing
Peterson has been used
before-can be used again, if there is
Doodle around, and Bill Merriam al
ways has plenty of that. If these two
men, who evidently have the Repub-
lican machine of the State in their
hands, countenance this disloyality,
which they are doing every moment
that Smith is allowed to remain on
the committee, it is time for open re-
volt-it is time that the Republican
party casts aside these rotten rags
and assumes new gown. It is time,
if Smith is allowed to remain on the
committee, that these men are repud-
lated, even at this late day, and men
OF political honor put in their places.
Let action be taken at once.

It is absurd to see Hays and Hess
sleeping together. Hays was the
fellow that wrote the roast on Hess
which appeared in this paper over a
year ago-a roast intended to secure
Hess dismissal from the Sleepy Eye
schools. A copy of the paper con-
tanning the article was sent to all Of
the school inspectors of that town, at
Hays request. Hess must have since
bowed to the demon.

choice in the selection of Maj. M. E.

Maj. Powell is we'll acquainted with

years past, makes the selection all the
better.

Jacob Klossner. Jr., chairman of
the Brown county Senatorial delega-

davit to the effect that Secretary Hess,
of the convention, stated that he had
turned the credentials over to Hays,
one of the delegates, and refused to
give Klossner another set. The affi-
davit further states that he asked
Hays for the credentials, but Hays
has refused to turn them over.

The non-partisan judicial conven-

Peterson's. Judge Webber always
does what he believes is right. Sam.
Peterson foresaw the present Sena-

able purpose of intimidating the
court. But the court would not have
been intimidated even had the con-
vention been a success.

forms danced with the loyalist ladies in the
halls where the voices of Franklin and Adam,
had echoed in the cause of freedom: men clad
in tatters left bloody tracks with their bare
feet as they moved from one hut to another

No man rejoiced more that the winter was
severe and that the godike heroes at Valley
Forge were shoeless and starving than the
rich Tory merchant, John McFarlane. He
smiled the sentiment, 1T pays to be loyal to

THE MAGPIE.

] love the sweet linnet the lark and the thrush
And the gold throated blackbird with n song In
each bush;
The finch and the robin, love every one,
But not the pied magpe that's walking alone.
For whether you're going your sweetheart to
meet, ! yGI
On business or pleasure, IN market or street,
To church or to chapel a bad sign II is
If you meet that one magpie ataking his ease.
But If 1t should chance you to see that Ill sight,
First look well around you to left and to right,
For If he's companioned the two are for mirth,
And three for wedding, and four for a birth.
Yet If he's alone show not wrath to the bird
A little politeness, I've heard it averred,
VIII please men and magpies. SO throw not n
stone,
But lift your hat kindly and bow and pass on.
Bow once, twice and thrice, and the bird, I've
heard say,
VIII return you a courtesy, both merry and gay.
And this is n charm, sirs, that well understood,
Will take away bad luck and bring You the good.
Now, all We sweet lovers, told we my charm,
The magpie's bad luck to evade and dsarm
And wish you in due time two magpies for
mirth,
And three for wedding and four for a birth.

HOW TO USE GRAPES.
Recipes That Can BE Followed With Con-
fidence For Table Delicacies.

fidcnce For Table Delicacies.
Delicious, healthful, inexpensive and
abundant In every portion of the country,
the grape deservedly holds high place
among our domestic fruits and each year
Is becoming more and moro q part Of the
food of the people 1t can be grown any
where, everywhere, and If it is a necessity
to purchase the fruit it is to be had In sea
son at every market and grocery, of excel
lent quality and at SO low cost that none
may be debarred it's use. Besides the gen.
erous use of the fruit in the natural state
there are many ways in which grapes may
be used in the preparation of culinary deli
cacies which a writer in Good Housekeep-
ing thinks may well be described, and &C.
cordingly she gives tho following tested
and approved recipes:
Grape Shortcake-Make and bake the
pastry as for any other fruit shortcake.
Divide the layers when cool. Then re-
move the seeds from sufficient quantity
of Malaga grapes and arrange the pulps
upon the cake Over the first layer of
grapes put a layer Of jelly and over the
upper layer of grapes coating of whipped
cream.
Grape Pie-Beat together an egg and a
VI sugar, dutl u
full of grapes, tablespoonful of flour and
little butter. Bake with two crusts.
Grape Jam-Slip off the skins Of the
fruit and lay them in an earthen dish,
boiling the pulp in porcelain kettle till
the seeds are separated. Most of these can
be skinned from the surface, whilo the
rest will settle to the bottom when the ket-
tie is removed from the fire. Add the ski s
and stir the whole together, boiling for a
half hour. Then add from half to three
fourths tho weight of sugar, according to
taste, bring once more to boil and seal
in cans.
Spiced Grapes-Wild grapes are best for
this use. They should be stemmed, washed,
boiled till soft and then pressed through
q coarse sieve. To each 10 pounds of the
pulp thus prepared add half the weight of
sugar, an even tablespoonful Of CHINA
mon, a hcaping teaspoonful each of cloves,
spice and pepper, grated nutmeg and
quarts of vinegar. Boil till it is as thick
as catchup, then bottle.

A United States senator declares it to be
the most amazing of anomalies to him how
David B. Hill can be dictator of New
York and cipher in the Senate. Equally
amazing, he thinks, is the fact that man
who has been read out of the party by near
ly all of its leading newspapers, repudiated
by the administration and even denied ad-
mission to the caucus Of the party in the
Senate, should be the one man upon whom
the Democracy of New York can unite
as candidate for governor. 1t is
not so strange, however, as it might
seem. In fact it serves chiefly to
illustrate the powerful grip which Tammany
has upon the politics of New York state.
The indications are, that the friends of Mr.
Cleveland will not lose the opportunity now
afforded for giving Mr.. Hill his political
quietus.
