! b.
St. Paul. Oct 24.-Patrick H. Kelly,
who for many years was the most pic
turesque character in politics in the
northwest, died suddenly last evening
at his home on St. Anthony Hill. Mr..
Kelly for long time was the leader of
the Democratic party in Minnesota and
up 10 the time of the failure of the
Kelly Mercantile Company had a pros
porous career as a merchant.
He was born politician. and in 1884
This reputation became national. When
he went east he was interviewed as the
owner of Minnesota. He attended the
democratic national convention in Chi
cage that year as a delegate from Min
nesota, and worked like a Trojan for
MIR. Cleveland S nomination.
Michael Dorian MAS associated with
Kelly in that fight. and because of a
previous warm personal friendship they
formed a political combination that
proved invincible for many years. kel-
" was atAthe head of the combination

that decided the appointments. His ems

aware of Kelly's3 work for Cleveland at

listration Kelly had a falling out With

sorre sharp words. which Villas never
forgot nor forgave That ended Mr..

and after he retired Dorian assumed the
