Cotton has been rushed in lively the past
ten days. 1t seems that all who held their
cotton until Mckinlcy'S election expecting
, grand rise in the market, were doomed
To disappointment, and fam the way it has
been marketed the past two weeks it ap-
pears as if the farmers were not banking
on on the promises of ten cents for their
| cotton if Mckinley was elected. That il,
about right. If Il man banks much OH
promises in politics, he will surely get left
at the little side door. We suppose the lit

HONORED GEN. M,ALPIN.
Elaborate Farewell Dinner Ten
dered the New Yorker

A farewell dinner was gwen at the
windsor hotel last night to Gen E. A
McAlpin, of New York, adjutant gen.
eral of that state, and president of the
National League of Republican Clubs.
The menu was most elaborate, the
wines of rare excellence. The apart
ment and the table displayed floral
decorations in the best taste. A strik-
Ing center piece was a great basket
wherein Marechal Mel, La France
American beauty and bride roses min
gled with smilaX and lilies of the val
ley in exquisite compliment to the
guest Of the evening, whose initials
were shown upon a broad white satin
ribbon above the flowers.
The dinner began at D. m, and was
somewhat hurried to permit Gen. Nc
Alpin to leave for Chicago at o'clock.
When his health was drunk in an effer-
Vescent Hbation, the general said that
during his travels throughout the
Union, he had nowhere met such a cor
dial, spontaneous reception as in the
Twin Cities. He especially compliment
ed the debonair geniality of Col. Mon
fort, whom he designated "the ideal
landlord
Gen. McAlpin had been doubly i'm
pressed with the abilities of the Min
neSotianS through the valuable aid rem
dered him in his duties as president
of the Republican league by Secretary
M. J. Bowling. No man in the entire
league had done more or more effective
work for its success than Mr.. Bowling.
1t was owing to Mr.. Dowling's prompt
activity that on the occasion of a recent
assessment Minnesota was the first
state of all to send in it's quota.
George Thompson effectively complimented
Gen. McAlpin upon the signal results OF the
generals administration of league affairs. II
