Last week we mentioned in this COL
umn that the indications pointed to a
lively interest arising in the contest at
st. Paul. The result of the balloting
this week leaves no room to doubt that
the Capitol City Hibernians intend to be
in at the finish with the rest Of them,
their candidate from Division No. 1, Jas:
J. Kennedy, having received total OF
nearly three thousand votes for the week
ending Thursday evening, advancing him
from ninth to fifth place. James Burke,
the candidate of Div. No. Z, Iennepin,
Is going up rapidly, his vote this week
being nearly two thousand, which gives
him firm grip on sixth place. Murphy,
of Brainerd, keeps up the same persistent
advance and adds largely to his vote
every week, his total for the past week
being nearly $500. Many of the other
candidates received several hundred
votes each, but the standing of all below
seventh place remains practically I'M
