Judge CAVITY Who was over from Min
reapolls Yesterday stated that he doubt
ed the effectiveness of the new urinary
election law in Hennepin county. lie he
lieved that on account ofGfhe nJlrerous
Offices to be filed in, Henneoin the law

other county Judge Caaty expressed the
same objection to tie law that has been
heard from otner quarters seyera! times
of late, namely that Under its operation
the candidate whom the people least
wanted might receive the domination.
Sheriff P. N. Mausten, the Republican
sheriff of Aitkin county, was in The city
Yesterday and expressed fhe belief that
his county would s. Republican this fall
Deputy Examiner H +. Kcerners
chances for the nomination for state
treasurer seem to be increasing. There
are many good Democrats who are ready
to say that Mr.. Koerner will be the man
named by the state convention for that
place.
Henry Truelson's letter repudiatlng the
statements which he attributes to the
Baldwin men to the effect that he has de-
olined to be candidate for the nominal
ton of congressman in the Sixth dis +.
tIict, is being published throus hort nus
district. Mr.. Truelson states that he is
not candidate for any other position
than representative and he is in the fight
to stay.
The St Cloud Journal-Press predicts
that the Stearns county Populist conTen-
ton will be for Henry Truelson for con
gress. 1t states that this convention,
which meets at ST. Cloud, Sept. 5, has al
ready been pledged to that candidate.
That paper also states that Stearns coun-
ty Democrats will also be solidly for the
ex-mayor of Duluth and viii send an in
structed delegation to the congressional
convention for Truelson.
For the first time in it's history FIJI
more county will this fall poll a Demo
cratic majority. writes J. Anstett, who is
a prominent resident Of that Republican
stronghold. He assures Secretary IN
field of this fact. There is trouble ia
Fillmore caused by a decided rupture
among the erstwhile political lords OF
that domain.
At the recent county convention the
best Republicans We're snub5ed and the
name Of N. o. Henderson, member OF
the last legislature, Rer a county crib,
was turned down This vns due TO the
fact that Mr.. Henderson has been in
bad party repute for some time. The
Republicans turned the CLASSY eye upon
him because Of an Independent attitude
he displayed during his recent term Of
Office in the lower house. 1t is cl3imed
by Republicans In Fillmore county hat
Henderson actually refused to fall into
line at the crack of the party lash or be
used as plant -ool1 in the furtherance
Of Republican schemes, which would
have worked eminent success to the par
ty. Such an air of independence grossly
displeased his partys bcsseS, and when
the county convention came round the
party ak fell upon LIE head of Mr.. Hen
derSon. 12 r.
Another prominent If Republican who
fell beneath the blow of this pugnacious
convention. is Samuel A. Langum, whose
ambition led him to seek the support Of
his party for the nominate for secre-
tary Of state.
The result of his decapitatlng process
will probably be the nomination Of an
independent ticket on which will appear
the names of N. o. Henderson and those
who shared his fate in the convention.
Such move would result in the election
of the Democrats.
State representative Sid B. Barteau
was guest of the city yesterday He
came from his home at Zumbrota and
talked over state politics with party as
sociates. ,r@
1t is announced among political men In
this city that State Senator Charles Hal
version, Of Dawson, has 7repudiated his
party, and will not be among the G. o.
P. men in the. coming campaign. He Is
said to be figuring on a nomination for
railroad commissioner on the Democratic
ticket
1t seems that the Democrats in Stearns
county are getting together for the state
and county elections Some Of the prom
inent members of the party who did not
support the party, four years ago, in
any elections, are to be found as delegates
to the county convention this fall. Judge
Theodore Bruener is the most prominent
Of this class.
Chairman Rosing and Secretary Can
field, of the Democratic state committee,
have been notified of a meeting of the state
chairmen and secretaries of the various
states in the Union, to be held at Chicago
