Now that the famous Thirteenth reg
tment has returned to their homes, and
President Mckinley has come and gone,
the politicians have resumed operations
with a will. Republicans feel that in
the presidents visit much good has been
accomplished, while Democrats seem
more than satisfied over the reception
accorded their representatives. Ever
since the Thirteenth regiment boys land
ed at San Francisco the political wire
| pullers of both parties have forgotten
all about local affairs, only so far as the
winding up of the festivities of the past
week had any particular bearing on
their respective hobbies And now that
everything in connection with the great
celebration passed off so we'll the lead
ers of both parties figure that much good
was accomplished. From now on the
work so we'll undertaken will be prose-
cuted with a will.
Notwithstanding the sentiment that
seemed to pervade the ranks of the Hen,
nepin Democracy for the past two months
favoring Mayor Gray's denomination,
there is today a strong breeze blowing
that may land him In the saddle in the
steeple chase against Congressman
Fletcher. 1t is a we'll known fact that
! the mayor Is not averse to accepting
congressional nomination, and to all ap-
pearances now it would appear that the
wood is drifting that way. The mayor.
however, has not said that he would
make the race, but those close to the
throne say that if he gets the nomination
he will accept it. It is difficult to say
at this time whether such a change in
the programme would benefit the party,
for it must be admitted that Mr.. Fletcher
has a strong grip on the people of Min
neapolis. The old soldiers are very
friendly to the present congressman, and
while some politicians at times look
lightly on this element In local politics.
it is a fact, nevertheless, that they are
a power. 1t is only necessary to look
| back to the last state campaign to sat,
| isfy the most skeptical of their influence
in local politics. They went after w. H.
Eustis with a determination to defeat
him, and the student of Hennepin poll
itfcs knows we'll what havoc they created
in the county How they would feel to-
wards Mayor Gray as a congressional
candidate cannot be prognosticated at
| this time.
| The feeling among Hennepin Repub-
| licans on the yubernatorial question
seems to be in favor of the nomination
| Of r. G. Evans. Hennepin Republicans
seem to think that both Collins and Van
| SAINT are back numbers, and that the
| party cannot afford to take up either of
them. They claim that these two can
didates were turned down last year and
! that 1t would be evidence of weakness
! to nominate either of them next time
| They say the party, to be successful,
must nominate new man; man who Is
a power with his party and stranger to
| defeat. This kind of man they say Mr.
/ Evans is, and for that reason they are
! determined to champion his nomination
Mr.. Evans has not yet said that he
would be candidate, but there is no
