UNTIL LIND ARRIVES
DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN COMMIT.
TEE WILL NOT HURRY THE
FIGHT
WAS SO DECIDED YESTERDAY

In HIS Latr-"HandsO Man
I'm the House" May Fall With
out the BreastwOrks I'm His Eff
forts to Be Reelected.
The executive committee Of the DEM
ocratdc state central committee had a
session yesterday. The session was
long, and the plan of campaign was
gone into exhaustively. 1t was prac-
tically decided upon, but Chairman Ro-
sing gave it out last night that it would
not be finally settled until Lieut.. Lind
arrived home. He will be here within
couple of weeks, and it was thought
best to wait until he was on the ground
before determining what should be
done. None of the candidates were
present at the meeting, with the excep-
ton of Mr.. Kinnon, who happened to
be in town.
Charles G. Kinds, who Is going to
dispute with Joel Heatwole, that
handSomest man in the house, for the
place of congressman from the Third
district, was at the Merchants last
night.
Mr.. Kinds will maintain the reputa-
ton of the Third for beauty in con-
greSS, for he is a much better looking
man than Joel. He believes that he
Will be elected and is out to beat Joel
His election will result in the sending
OF man who, at least, will represent
the state. Mr.. Kinds is a lawyer He
lives at Shakopee, and is the most pop
ular man in the county. He is a young
man, but has been twice elected county
attorney Of Scott county, and Is known
all over the district as a lawyer of re-
pute and an eloquent and Well-infOrm-
ed man. He said in the course of an
Interview that he thought he would be
elected.
The campaign will be warm one"
said Mr.. Kinds, but I have no doubt
Of the result. The party is united in
the district, and that means a great
deal. There Is great deal of dissat-
lsfactlon with the present representa-
tive In congress, and I expect to be
elected"
The G o b Is in receipt of a letter
from 5. A. Kirkham, the former mem
Der Of the Minneapolis force. whose
activity against William Henry Eustis
is causing the Minneapolis papers SO
much worry. A portion Of the letter
which William Henry, himself and Joe
ManniX and some other Minneapolis
people, not necessarily OF the male per-
suasion, might be interested in reading
is suppressed. The balance of it is a
follows:
Editor The Glob e-Dear Sir: see by the
Minneapolis Times that they feel very badly
because l am supporting John Lind and they
are telling all kinds Of lies about me, ard
they say l have no influence. If they think
so, why do they devote much time and
space in their valuable CD sheet roasting me?
If they think have no influence, 1t is moi
worth their trouble to tell so many lies about
me. | shall give my whole attention to de-
feat William Henry Eustis until election day
and then shall turn my attention to the
Times. | shall prosecute them for libel for
stating that assaulted respectable married
lady. The woman that had the trouble with
ala not say that I assaulted her, but that
abused her boys and frightened them into
commissions, which was untrue
I notice that the Times is very anxious to
know who pays my expenses. They are all

Rochester, Mimi. Sept. 6.
A story which has percolated through
the surroundings Of Judge Steele's com
mittee, in the EndicOtt building, COM
ing entirely from Republican sources,
indicates that political geography is
needed to be added to the curriculum
Of the Eustis educational bureau at
headquarters.
According to report the we'll known
Andy Stevens, Of CroOkston, broke over
the trocha, and was greeted by Chair
man Steele, who asked him where he
was from. "Crookston," said Mr.. Stew
ems, staggered a bit that he was not
known by name, "Crokston," said the
judge, under his spectacles Tets see
What congressional district is that in.
When Andy got loose he made some
pointed remark to the first Republican
he met, about what kind of a chairman
had succeeded Bixby, anyhow, which
couldn't be put in print without dashes.
The case is respectfully referred to
Il
see the propriety of enclosing some
political charts in the next shipment Of
rutabaga seeds, hoping that one will fall
under Chairman's Steele's observation
and study.

An indication of the spirit of the
Democratic campaign was yesterday
reported from Chaska, Of County Com
mitteeman George Faber, and the de-
mand for Lind emblems in the cam
paign. Mr.. Faiber. at his own expense,
has supplied 500 Lind buttons to peo-
pie wishing them, and has demands for
more and has 1000 coming, and says
there are plenty Of takers. The Eustis
buttons were scattered in that region
by small boys and in shipments from
Minneapolis, through the post office in
Chaska They were Of the brand Eus-
tbs purchased Of the Eastern manufac-
turers. turning down the st. Paul and
Minneapolis concerns, that would have
made them cheaper.
Mr.. Faber's button is Of his own de-
sign. the American flag with John
Lind's name below.
The campaign will open at North St. Paul
on the evening Of Sept. %, when Hon. John
L. Townley will deliver address on the
candidates for the supreme court bench.
Mr.. Townley will enlghten the voters of that
village on the work of Justices Mitchell,
Canty and Buck, and tell how the Republi-
cans turned down Judges Mitchell and Col
Inns because of certain decisions which were
obnoxious to the leaders of the Republican
party.
