Is hardly any doubt that the pre-

The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1898-09-22
h. M. ANDERSON.

The legislative convention at
New Paynesville on Tuesday
placed in nomination gentleman
who will make worthy represent
tative of this district, in the person
of B. M. Anderson. He is an &C
tive business man and farmer,
manager of the the business of the
Sawyer-Arnold lumber Company at
that place, in whose employ he has
been for a number of years, and
his employers give him most flat
tering testimonials for ability and
integrity. He is Norwegian by
birth, but has been resident of
this country from boyhood, and is
as thoroughly and periodically
American as any citizen "to the
manner born" He has a wide and
intimate acquaintance throughout
the western and southwestern por-
ton of the district, where he has
resided for many years, and is
highly esteemed and respected by
all. The republicans of the district
have a worthy candidate who is
every way entitled to their conf
dence and support, and he will re.
ceive it in full measure.

Snarl7ug and NEsrepres entiug.

The SkLouis Globe de-
nounces the effort OF the democratic
party to magnify the sickness at the
various army camps, and besmirch
the administration in it's management
of the war. The party is true to it's
record in this regard. The Democr At
says:
There is not a single defeat to snarl
ABOUT. The only recourse is to take
the victory to pieces and claim that
the preparations were so utterly bad
that the administration deserves a
vote of censure. There was some stuff
ering in the hospitals, short supplies
in camp, a number of uncleanly ships
several inefficient doctors, commissar-
les and quartermasters, and so the
war, from a democratic point point OF
view, is declared to be failure. A
general reprimand for the admintstra-
tion is about the democratic idea, and
also a dismissal of republican major
tiles from congress on account of the
war. -r
Presently the statistics Of the army
will be made up, and it will be found
that the losses from disease have not
been excessive, while those from bat
tie, taking the whole field, have been
remarkably light. The movement of
men from the north to the south in
summer was bound to re suit in serious
sickness. When the British attacked
Havana in midsummer with $4,000
men the loss from disease in four
months was over 1000 men. The city
was taken, and the campaign has al
ways been regarded as victorious.
Our losses in Cuba have been small
in comparison. The British army
went through the fever period with no
hope of removal Our army has been
Transported to the northern seashore
for the restoration of its health. 1t
might be supposed from the comment
of the democ. attic press that the BUSH
ness of the administration throughout
the war was to organize neglect and
put none but the incompetent on duty.
The copperhead virus is the same as
of old, and its contemplate political
tricks unchanged.

succeed Capt. McKelvey, who is IN

people. He has a petition in circu-
lation now. 1- ~
The party might have done a
little better in one or two instances,
but it has done so much better
than was ever expected of it that
the HERALD at this time forbears
criticism.
Prof. Vath of this city was rec
ognized to the extent of a court
commissionership-an unremuner-
alive and unimportant office. Why
in the world did it not nominate
him for superintendent of schools
an office for which he is eminent
ly qualified?
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1898-09-22

Val Batz, of Holdingford, is the
probable candidate for state sena-
tor against Henry Keller. DR.. Du
Bots has been very widely and
favorablv mentioned, and the nom
ination would doubtless be accord
ed him by the fusionistS if he ex-
pressed desire for it. The HERALD
has the doctor for its authority in
stating that he is not a candidate,
except under some remote Contin-
oency or unforeseen complication.
He is friendly to Mr.. Batz and will
assist in bringing about his nomin-
alton.

Legislative Convention,

Pursuant to call the Legislative con-
vention for this district assembled at
New Paynesville on Tuesday last, and
was called to order by the chairman OF
the committee, H. G. Magureni of Mel
rose. Frank Tolman, of New Paynes-
vile, was elected temporary chairman
and Albert Kluge, of Sank Centre,
secretary. A committee on credentials
of which George Fish was chairman,
reported large representation IN. at
tendance. A committee of five on
resolutions was appointed, as follows
Chas. F. Hendryx, G. w. Henke, B. F.
Gray, N. w. Ellison, H. C. Maguren.
The following report was read, amid
great enthusiasm and repeated ap-
plause and was unanimously adopted:
The republicans of the 54th Legisla-
tive district of Minnesota congratu-
lates the country at large, and this
district in particular, upon the in
creased and increasing prosperity,
evidences of which everywhere abound,
shared alike by all classes of our
people.
This gratifying condition is attri-
butable to the distinctiveiy republican
policy of wise protection of American
labor and American industry, as en-
bodied in the Dingley tariff bill.
This convention desires to put on
record its cordial appreciation of the
honor conferred upon the nation and
state by the eminent services of Sena-
tor Cushman K. Davis and believes
that his retirement from public life at
this time would be national calamity.
We heartily endorse the admirable
record of our junior senator, Knute
Nelson. and commend him to the
favorable consideration of the legisla-
ture when his term shall expire.
To our entire delegation in congress
we send cordial greetings or approval
and expressions of our pride and sat-
isfaction for the conspicuous services
they have rendered the state and IA
tion, and we specially commend the
course of our own representative, Hon.
Page Morris, who has been and is an
interchangeable worker for his district
and it's every interest.
The state administration during the
past thirty-five years and more of re-
publican rule mas Doeu GfuS W every
obligation, and we pledge our hearty
support to every candidate on the
ticket, fully convinced that the splendid
work already accomplished will be ad-
vanced and carried further forward by
them, to the honor of the state and the
welfare and happiness of every citi-
zen. ..-.- .-t .....a ...s
Chas. F. aendryx presented the

to the convention for the nomination
for member of the legislature, and
Carl Reiter that of B. NJ. Anderso on.
Mr.. Anderson received a majority OF
the votes cast, and on motion of Mr..
Hendryx his nomination was made
unanimous. After number of lively
speeches, among them ringer by
Hon. Alvah Eastman, of ST. Cloud,
the convention adjourned sine die. The

Hon. Page Morris opened his
campaign for congress at New
PaynesviIle on Tuesday evening,
and he was accorded a warm and
cordial reception. Alarge hall was
packed to its fullest capacity, and
scores were unable to gain admis-
sion. For two hours-he held their
closest attention, delivering an adj
mirable speech, bristling with per
tinent points, full of cogent argu-
ment, burning with patriotic fire,
IA speech effective by reason of
its unansWerable logic, and long to
be remembered for its fine diction
and splendid delivery.
