HANNA IN MANKATO
There is Nothing the Matter
With Chairman Mark.
He Will Visit MankatO With Senator
Frye and Make Short
Speech.


Senator Frye were likely to stop in
Mankato on their itinerary which
takes them through South Dakota, the
Free Press put itself in communica-
ton with the Republican state COM
mittee at ST. Paul this morning and
learned that the special train contain
ing Chairman Hanna and Senator Frye
would undoubtedly pass over the c.
& N. W. road and that a short stop
will be arranged for this city when the
two distinguished gentlemen will
make short speeches of a few minutes
each. The date and hour of the day
have not yet been arranged, but will
be announced as soon as known.
Congressman McCleary returned
Monday from Illinois, Ohio and In
diana, where he gave several adj
dresses last week. He spoke in Chicago
last Monday night in, Ohio the next
three nights and in Indiana the
last two nights. He states that
the Republicans will carry all of those
states. Wherever the Democrats have
held meeting and the Republicans
have had meetings afterwards the Re-
publican meetings have been overflow
ing.
The Democrats of Mcpherson held
a rally at st. Clair Saturday night
and listened to an interesting address
by G. N. Andrews, of this city. About
200 people were present, half filling
the town hall. Several Democratic
candidates were present and all of
them were called on for remarks.
A Bryan and Lind club was organ
lied with Chas. O'Connor president,
D. F. Rasdall vice president, Hubert
Bruels secretary and John Bestman
treasurer.
James G. Mohr spoke to an audience
of $50 at the Republican headquarters
Friday night and presented theissues of
the hour in both the English and Ger
man languages. He is fluent talker,
we'll grounded in his subject, and held
the closest attention of all.
Editor John A johnson, of St. Peter,
will give several speeches in this
county in the interest of the Demo
cratic ticket.
The Populist county committee Sc
lected Frank Morse for judge of cleo
tion in the Third ward and sent his
name with the others to the council
Friday night for endorsement When
Mayor Currier saw the list. he struck
off Mr.. Morse's name and wrote in its
place the name of Henry Klugertz.
The list as amended was adopted by
the council. The mayors action
has raised "hob'' in the Populist
party. A NJ Morrison a member of
the county committee, called at the city
hall this morning to ascertain who
was responsible for altering the COM
mittee's report. 1t appears that
Messrs Morrison and Morse were the
only representatives among the judges
of their particular branch of the Pop
ulist party, and when Morse was replac-
ed by one from another wing it upset
the nicely balanced calculation of the
committee.
