A LETTER WRITER.

IL ID q AdUu1 dl Y UGLY dA11OAS OIC
Legislators in St. Paul as to just why
Representative McCleary of this
district addressed all of them per-
sonal letters Immediately after the
last campaign was over, congratulate
ing them in one way or another on
their success in having been elected
to the legislature. These letters
all appeared to have been written on
the stationery of the Windsor Hotel
Co., and dated St. Paul, and each
and every one of them, SO far as
exhibited by different members,
was in the handwriting of the Sec
ond district representative.
The very worst feature of the
whole job of letter writing was that
Mr.. McCleary addressed some SEN
ators and representatives with whom
he did not have the slightest &C
quaintance, and these letters were
addressed in remarkably familiar
tones. Two or three representatives
up in the northern part Of the State,
who did not have the honor of Mr..
McCleary's acquaintance, were par
ticularly eager to know who Mr..
McCleary was, and why he adj
dressed such letters to them, couch
ed in such familiar tones
In some cases Mr.. McCleary ad-
dressed senators and representa-
tives whom he desired and did all
in his power to ''turn down" before
the conventions which nominated
them, met. These letters were ex-
ceptionally familiar, and where
there was no opposition he pointed
to the fact as it being evidence of
their great personal popularity.
There werea number of expressions
of disgust on the part of the recipients
of these documents.
Several weeks before the election
this paper pointed to the fact that
Mr.. McCleary was trimming his
sails for senator to succeed G. K.
Davis, and was willing to have the
lightning strike him at any time.
When he made this statement the
postofice papers of this district and
one or two political writer's in ST..
Paul and Minneapolis took THE
GAZETTE to task severely for making
the statement. In view of this ex-
tensive letter writing system which
Mr.. McCleary so quietly conducted
Immediately after election, will not
our.excellent friends throw off the
official influence just long enough to
admit that there might be something
in the proposition?
It is barely possible that if the
real light is turned on the Second
district representative the people
will see.him.in an entirely different
light from that in which he has been
held up to the public gaze during
the past few years.

SENATORIAL ABILITY.


tive department of the Minneapolis
Journal very naturally assumes
that the Fifth Congressional dis
trict, composed entirely of Henne-
pin county, has the best delegation
in the upper house of the legisla-
ture. While admitting that the
Hennepin Senatorial delegation is a
good one, we beg to widely differ
with the Journal political writer.
The entire Senate has an excellent
composition, but if any one district
is to be singled out, we prefer to
take off our hat to the First congress
sional district crowd, and particu-
iarly to the Republican members of
that delegation, with each of whom
we have personal acquaintance
Just take the line. There is Sen
ator Roverud, Senator Underleak,
Senator Thompson, Senator Sven
ningsen, Senator Lord, Senator
Knatvold, any one of whom are
equal to the Hennepin delegation,
and for genuine geniality they
have no equal. For real political
cunningness Senator Greer is equal
to any of them.
Take the Second district next.
We think it was clearly demonstrate
ed in the organization of the Senate
that Geo. w. Somerville of this dis
trict was an equal to any of the Hen
enpin Senators, and in the kindest
of feeling towards that delegation
we cannot help but think that Mr..
Somerville outgeneraled them.
Then, there is Senator Miller of
Rock. who will match anyone of the
Hennepin crowd, while Schellbach,
Benedict and Macarthur have a
right to comparison. The Demo
cratic John A. johnson of Nicollet
county will otherwise prove him
self a worthy Senator before the
the session ends. The Sixth and
Seventh districts can pick out
equals to the Hennepin crowd, and
no smoother senator will be found
than Buchanan of Morrison county,
while Brewer of Stearns and Young
of Swift will always be found with
cards properly placed.
All in all we don t think that any
one district has much better stock
than another, but every district
has Senators who are bound to
forge to the front as political events
| pass by.

The local police have two mysteries
on their hands The case is the double
disappearance Of Jacob Stahl, aged K
years, and Henry Chamberlain AID
there is fear in the minds OF maGy thAt
they have ended their eXis .ence, as both
We're mentally unbalance'.
Stahl escaped for the third time from
the Webster poor farm, and Chamber
lain made his escape from the Sutton
almshouse, and it Is also his third ess
cape. Twice before each has beer cap
tured in Webster, but this time neither
can be found.
OF the two Stahl is the best known
in town. He has lived here many years,
but a few months ago he was compelled
to go to the town farm. He evidently
did not like the place, and with his dis
eased brain, tried to fire it, but was
caught Just in time. The story is go
ing the rounds that both have drowned
themselves, but no verifcation can be
found of the report.
Maanexit Lodge, I. o. o, F., has
elected these officers: n G., George
Stevens; v. g. William H. Anderson;

CLIN TON

Til story some months ago printed
by The Spy that I. D. Dexter would in
all probability tear down the rink and
erect substantial block there was de-
MED by Mr.. Dexter at the time. Now
he admits that he is contemplating
such a course, and promises that he
will put up a building that will be a
credit to the town. His plan makes a
bad outlook for polo. With the rink
gone, there is no place where the game
can be played. Mr.. Dexter built the
rink in &C days. He thinks he can tear
it down III half that time.
The fire which wiped out the Theatre
block and several Sother buildings will
not be an unmixed evil. Building will
be begun on most of the vacant sites
early in the spring. O'Toole Bros. We're
first to announce their purpose to put
up a. substantial brick structure in
place of their frame building that was
destroyed.
Harold Parker is talking Of putting
brick structure on his property at
High and Water streets. The Cannon
property is also certain to be utilized
1t is too valuable to remain out of use.
The remains of Mrs Warren B.
Townsend of Worcester will be brought
to Lancaster for nterment tomorrow
She was the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs
James Wright, recently deceased, and
is survived by her brothe., Allison S.
Wright. who lives here.
Quite the prettiest social event of
the month was the reception in Con-
gregatonal church this evening of Rev.
and Mrs Thomas Dawson. Rev. Mr..
Dawson has been recently ordained to
the pulpit. He is the first laborer in
the vineyard the church has sent out
in many years. His fellow church
members gave him therefore hearty
exhibitions of their good will. He will
fill the pulpit of church near West
field.
