VICTOR C. GILMAN.
Among the men on the Democratic
ticket who are destined to surprise the
experienced politician, Victor C. Gilman,
the candidate for register of deeds, is
easily the foremost. His campaign is
feature of the campaign. His acceptance
of the nomination was in some sense an
expression of his party fealty; hut such
unexpected strength has he developed
among the masses that the wisest of the
political prophets are predicting his Sic
cess, and declare that he will be among
the foremost in the polling on either
ticket. Mr.. Gilman is Il dyCl-in- the
wool Democrat. His Democracy has
been with him mere private considera-
ton. His party fealty has been known
only to his friends and associates. He
has never had to do with politics, and
knows nothing about the arts Of the
politician. But so far as present indica-
lions offer any safe guide for Judgment,
his very ignorance of the ways of poll
tics is going to operate to the undoing of
his opponent. Mr.. Gilman has all the
elements that go towards making pop
uar man and good citizen. He is we'll
known, reliable and painstaking, and
is thoroughly capable of filling the posi-
ton to which he aspires. The voters of
Ramsey county will make no mistake in
selecting Mr.. Gilman as next register Of
deeds.
