another consideration which is CIV
ing these men some trouble is the doubt
as to the falling off in the vote which
Will be due to the passage of the con-
stltutional amendment requiring voters
to have secured their second papers.
1t was thought that the Republicans
would get the best of this, but an en-
eryetic organization by the Democrats
ana persistent work in getting the men
10 take out their papers, especially in
the more populouS communities, has
given rise to fear that when the
votes are counted it will show, as a
rainy rainy day does in New York, that the
democrats nave been voting. while the
detection has been from the Republic
an side.
Congressman Page Morris, of the
sixth district, was IN ST Paul short
Tune yesterday afternoon. Passing
from the hotel to the depot, he bore a
c&paclous grip or document sack, from
one corner of which slipped out a copy
or that wicked little pamphlet which
mas made its appearance at the places
! Were the judge has gagements, en-
titled, why l Shall Vote for Towne."
! The judge paused in front of the Endi-
cott headquarters, and, casting his eye
| up to the EuStiS mausoleum, sighed
vlsibly. He doubtless thought of the
load the Guaranty Loan candidate was
| proving to his ticket. The Judge said
he had been in Stearns county, where
ne had had one meeting, at which he
spoke, and which he said was salts
factory to him. Candidate Eustis had
not~yet been there. Morris returned
to Duluth.
Maj. Bowler, candidate for lieutenant
governor, returned yesterday from his
engagement at the Pine county fair,
where he and Mr.. ToWne addressed
large meetings day and evening. Both
spoke at the fair grounds, and in the
evening at the court house, which was
filled. The major spoke briefly, pre-
ceding Mr.. TOWne, who then spoke for
an hour and half His address the
major prOnOunceS one of the most
mastery he ever listened to. The large
audience was deeply interested, and
| enthusiastic to a great degree. Maj.
! Bowler says there is every indication
! Of a large vote in that part, and such
| were the reports he received every
where While on the trip. He accom-
panied Chairman ROSing to New Ulm
last evening, on a visit to John Lind,
and Will be in the campaign from this
on, subject to orders of the state COM
mittees.
Chairman Rosing of the state Demo-
cratic committee, went to New Ulm
last evening, for consultation with
Hon. John Lind, respecting the for
NAL opening of the campaign, on the
NfA I'D t. 1Dr.c Il fl,ok
with the furlOughing Of the quarter
masters regiment, he has his military
business so we'll dispatched that he will
be able to conform his engagements
to the commands of Chairman ROsing,
and the latter will probably on his re-
turn, announce Mr.. Lind's opening
speech, expected to be at Minneapolis,
and no doubt in the exposition build
ing.
will the Democrats dare attempt
to fill the exposition building, in view
OF the frosty opening Of the campaign,
W hen Davis and Eustis could not fill
the small Lyceum theater? is asked by
the Republicans The Democratic re-
ply is that the reform forces have no
fear about filing even the vast ex-
position, when John Lind, the great
commoner, is to be heard. The democ-
racy promise the grandest meeting Of
any since Bryan's, when Lind comes
tc Minneapolis.
Speaking Of the Davis campaign, the
growing frequency with which Sena-
tor Davis is being knocked" is Great
ing apprehension. The Little Falls
senatorial convention could not find
time 10 indorse the senator, and it
leaks out from the Endicott headquar-
tiers that the talk there, even among
the managers of the Republican state
campaign, is even slightingly of Davis.
Thus in speaking of Knute Nelson and
Davis, it is reported of Chairman Steele
that he compares the opening speeches
of Nelson and Davis prejudicially to the
latter. He is said to declare that
Davis speech fell flat, while Nelson's
is regarded as so ringing and effective
that 1t is being prepared to be sent
out into the state in all three Ian
guages, English, Norwegian and Ger
man. Regarding the Swedes, it is said
that the Republicans do not intend to
cater to them to the extent of sending
the speech out in their language, as
they say the Swedes are going for
Lind anyhow, and that 1t is not worth
while trying to stop them.
