1t is the usual thing for a candidate to
make election promises but 1 don't
believe in this principle. L shall make
no specific pledges to any individual
voter. If am elected 1 shall then en-
deavor to find out What is the will and
desire of the people, and it will be my
aim to represent them with an honest
heart and an honest purpose" cloud
applause and prolonged cheering)
Mr.. Pierce Butler made a capital
speech. 1t was too late in the evening
to discuss the details of the campaign.
He believed that absolute frankness
was to be expected from the leaders of
both parties The Republican candi-
dates were not frank. The recent
speeches Of Mr.. Eustis completely ig-
nored every official duty which he will
be called upon to fulfill if elected. His
address at Market hall did not contain
solitary reference to the correction
of any public abuse, nor did it give
his standing on any public question,
excepting RepublicaniSm and Spain.
0aughter). He had talked of Gettys-
burg and told stories, but never once
declared himself on line issues.
Mr.. Eustis has no monopoly of
patriotism" remarked Mr.. Butler.
Our own candidate has already fought
for his country, and was ready to be a
volunteer when the last war broke
out. 1t is not necessary for John Lind
to tell you that he favored q vigorous
prosecution of the war with Spain.
You are more interested in knowing
that he is in favor of much needed re-
forms and good government" (Ap-
plause.)
"Eustis will soon be making an affi-
davit that he never favored govern
mental expansion. Democracy wants
no alliance with England"
When Mr.. Butler referred to England
in these terms the crowd gave him a
perfect ovation. One of his concluding
distractions was: Il need not take up
your time with Mr.. Bigelow, the candi-
date for county attorney. You know
the old motto: Say nothing but good
Of the dead"
Mr.. John Irvine said that the Re,
pUblfcans were active in throwing mud
at John Lind, Democratic candidate
for governor, but that notwithstand:
ing, Mr.. Lind would be elected by an
overwhelming majority. (Applause.) AS
to F. G. Stevens, candidate for con.
gress, the ST. Paul Dispatch declared
he was not q windy congressman
He was "quiet worker" There waa
no doubt at all about that fact. The
Dispatch said Mr.. Stevens had been
good to the pensioners. 1t was pity
he had been go hard on depositors.
Qaughter)
Mr., F. L. McGhee made a vigorous
appeal to the electors on behalf Of the
Democratic standard-bearers. He spoke
Of President McKlnley's attitude with
regard to the negroes when the lat&
war broke out. The president had
asked permission" to draft 25, 900 color,
ed volunteers to Cuba, calling them
''black immunes."
Are we not American citizens, with
citizens rights and privileges?" asked
the speaker. 1.-THE negro wanted to
fight the Spaniard, as an American, not
as black immune >" (Applause)
Aid. E. L. Murphy was a favorite
with the audience. He asked the cleo
tors to vote the Democratic ticket
straight and to help to eject from pow,
err the kid-gloved men and the silk,
stockings.

ALL IN A TANGLE.
The Law In Regard to Voters Who
Remove Before Election.

Attorney General Childs, or the leg
islature that drew the election law, has
made a merry tangle out of the re-
moval business. Attorney General
Childs has ruled that one who moves
into another precinct within thirty
days previous to the election may not
vote either in his former or latter
home. The constitution says this, or
seems to, although some there are who
raise the point that an election dis
trict, within the purVieW of the con-
stitution, is not a precinct necessarily,
but one of the subdivisions from which
a representative is chosen. Thus, one
ward, where aldermen are voted for,
or one legislative district, are cited-by
these as instances of legislative dis
trictS.
The election law, however, uses the
term election district very plain
ly with application to each pre-
cinct, when it says that no
election district shall comprise,
when it is first defined, more than 400
voters at the last. preceding election.
Besides, the election law says one
may vote who has lived in a precinct
ten days, which is clearly in CONTRA
vention of the constitution, and there
you are. There isn't as much danger
Of trouble over it now as there is at
spring elections, which come soon after
moving time" but it is likely that
legislation will be attempted this win
ter to straighten out the tangled web

MEETING IN THE EIGHTH
Was Well Attended and Good Deal
of Enthusiasm Shown

Was Well Attended and a Good Deal
of Enthusiasm Shown.
eff I staid on the Pop ticket people would
have said that I was being compensated for
it, and that would be a stigma on my honor
that 1 could not afford" said James Cormican
in the midst of an grafton delivered last even
ing at Plebusch's hall. Mr. Cormican was
not an invited guest. He got into the hall
in the middle of the meeting and he volun-
teered a few remarks. He rose to the empy-
rean in his oratorical flights and he invited
cheers and abuse indiscriminately. And in
his zeal for the ticket that he was supporting
he told how glad he was that he was not on
the Populist ticket, and also made some re-
marks about people who had not had a suit
of clothes in several years and spent all their
time hanging about the court house. who had
become men of fashion and independent can
didates at the same time. Mr.: Cormican was
particularly anxious that all his PoDulist
friends should support Mr.. Meade for clerk
Of the courts, and he feared that he had come
very near doing Mr.. Meade an injustice by
taking the POpulist nomination. He was even
thankful that fit Of sickness had prevented
him from taking his place on the official bal
lot.
Prior to the arrival of Cormican the meet
ing had been conducted as business meet
ing of Democrats. There were a number Of
prominent Democrats present and they had
given their advice as to what should be done
in the matter of getting out the voters to
register
Albert Hanft presided and Peter Metzdorf
was secretary. E. ]. Bishop spoke first of
the necessity for complete registration and
pointed to the absolute need for this as O
condition precedent to the election of the
entire Democratic ticket. If that were pro-
vided for success at the polls assured.
He said that it might be in the power of the
upper portion of the Eighth ward to elect
F. H. Ellerbe to the senate, and that was
thing most to be desired
T. D. O'Brien made several suggestions
along the same line and said that it was al
ready evident that the vote had not been
registered. If the precinct committeeman
would get together and provide for getting
the vote on the registration list the rest
would be easy. He spoke from experience,
and instanced several bygone elections. He
had no doubt Of the election of Lind but
the entire ticket should go along with the
governor, and this district should make pro-
vision for the election of Judge Willis to
congress.
Chairman Hanft. J. A. NOVEL;, George I'm
land, the candidate for the house in the dis
trict; William Platte, T. J. McDermott, D. F.
PEBBLES, William Brown and others had
something to say along the same line before
the arrival Of Mr. Cormican stirred things up
John B. Irvine Victor Gilman and Humphrey
Barton made brief speeches
All Of the speakers impressed on those
present the necessity for a full meeting Of
the precinct committeeman of the ward at
BrandPs hall, Friday evening. The meeting
was large and enthusiastic to a degree.

Eustis, Neal & Go. was a partnership and
cotemporaneously with it part of the time ex-
listed the Neal-Carr Lumber company. After
the logs were sold and money received from
the Itasca Lumber company and from Hagey

who did the work, not having filed liens for
their work, efforts IN various forms were
tried to enforce liability against Eustis and
several Of those actions still remain un-
tried in the district court of Itasca county.
In my Judgment the corporation a device
to defraud the workmen and other creditors.
Carr was an employe in Minneapolis of Eus-
tbs, and Neal was an insolvent as well as
Others who were in it. Eustis swore in court
that he never had an interest in the corpo-

not partner. His sole relation seemed to
be to receive all cash receivable. As labor
beaten l regard him as the most accomplished
man in the state. Very respectfully. j.

Do business at the Old Stand Yet
Awhile Ell S. Warmers Eff
forts No Longer of Any Avail
Some Other Lobby.
The efforts of the Republican COM
mittee and candidates to stampede a
few Democrats to George H. Irish is
not meeting with enough encourage
ment to warrant the outlay Of any
more funds in that direction. The fact
of the matter is that the committee is
making its main fight for Irish, or rath-
er for Chapel who put UP for lriShs
nomination and who is also putting UP
for his election. 1t is a notorious fact
that there was more money spent for
Irish's nomination than for the rest Of
the whole ticket. Charley Arrol i'm
AGNES he paid it all because he got
held up and shaken down for the price
of a few precincts In the Fourth ward.
If he could only see the CHASTITY gashes
that were made in ChapeIs bank ac-
count he would not feel so badly.
Notwithstanding the evasive state
mentS Of Irish and the half-hearted
denials Of the Dispatch, coupled with
the information that ''even If Chapel
We're to go in the office with Irish he is
one of the best fellows that ever lived"
the public Will not permit another
period of Chapel-Irish bOssism as thai
with which the city was afflicted for two
Years. Col. kiefer's friends are not
forgetful Of the fact that it was the
ChapeI-Irish combination that buried
the harDOOn deep in the vitals of the
former congressman, who had the Eek
affixed TO his title through their in,
strumentality.
And the Kieferverein never forgives.
Chapel feels that he has a comeback
of $4,000 at the county because of his
bills that were turned down, and it
must not be forgotten that it was his
chief deputy and manager, George H.
Irish, who made out and submitted
these extOrtionate bills against the
county. 1t was also this same astute
and resOurceful manager, this same
George H. Irish, who managed tho
legislative lobby in conjunction with
Eli s. Warner, which made the office
worth $40 600 a year to Chapel instead
OF the $4,000 a year that it was worth
when Chapel was elected to it.
Every reputable attorney in the city,
outside of a few interested Republican
officials and their associates, bear witt
ness that the sheriff's Office has been
better handled since the election Of
John Wagner than it ever was be-
fore, and there will be only a few who
will vote to restore it to the hands Of
the syndicate Of politicians who work
ed" it from 1892 to 1896
Everybody knows, and even Repub-
1icans privately admit that the election
of Irish is simpy a compromise to re-
turn Chapel to his old pIckings The
plan that has been agreed upon is that
Irish shall be the nominal sheriff,
while Chapel will have charge Of the
jail, with the perquisites that relate
thereto. Between them they would grab
off a pretty good thing, only they will
not get a chance.

into the homes and hearts Of the poor
and humble-the grand army Of wage
earners. This was the greatness Of
the Democratic party. Between the
two it was a question of the welI-being
Of the masses versus the well-being
Of the classes. (Applause)
Referring to his opponent, Mr.. Pc
terson said: II don't believe any self
respecting voter wants to vote for a
castoff. AS you know very well, my
opponent secured his nomination after
a desperate effort. an honest man
finds 1t hard to spend a lot of money to
assist in his election.
II know personally where money
went to secure the nomination of Mr..
Sheehan"
Mr.. Peterson touched briefly on the
subject Of constitutional legislation.
which it had been Senator Sheehan's
endeaVor to have placed upon the stat
ute books Of the state Of Minnesota
giving Judges the power to elect repre-
sentatives in the legislative body. thus
overriding the will of the people The
senator had been laboring to deny to
the masses the right to choose. This
Of itself was sufficient to make the
electors elect Mr.. Sheehan to stay at
home. (Applause.)
Mr.. Peterson continued: my apo
nent, you will remember, was appoint
bank, and in this capacity he was sup
posed to be the servant Of the depos-
tiers. After two years of such service
the depositors are still waiting for a
dividend Five thousand dollars have
been paid for the receivers services.
This is a pretty large percentage on
collections - even for lawyer"
Qaughter)
Speaking on the subject of national
ity, Mr.. Peterson declared that he con-
sidered this trait a commendable one
as between man and man. Blood is
thicker than water, and it was only
natural for a SWede to like a. Swede
better than an Irishman, and vice
versa, but nationality, as a prejudice,
had no place in politics.
The candidate spoke Indignantly
against the utterances Of the Dispatch
In recent issue, in which that paper
practically said to the Swedes Of st.
Paul: eff you dare to vote for John
Lind we will see that you pay dearly
for your whistle" Mr.. Peterson said
that this outrageous statement had
turned dozens Of Swedish Republican
voters in favor Of the Democratic can
dida tes.
