Iy on the national PLATFORM. ne says
elm 1896 1 was very active in my oppo-
sition to Bryan because of the silver and
anarchistic planks In the platform. I
was then an advocate Of sound money.
This year l have not declared myself In
favor of or against Mr.. Bryan.
ST regard the tenets of the Republican
party as dangerous in the extreme, since
they are leading US away from the teach
ings of the constitution.
Mr. Bryans speech of acceptance at
Indianapolis I regard as the model OF
what is right in national politics. The
main fight will be made on the anti-im-
perialsm plank.
although free silver is still in the
platform I do not regard 1t as so danger
Gus as it was four years ago."
The st. Cloud Times says: There ap-
pears tc be a strong sentiment in favor
of the nomination of L. L. Brown, OF
Winona, to make the race against Con-
gresham James A. Tawney, but 1t Is
regarded as doubtful If he would accept.
He is considered as strong a candidate
as the Democrats could name.
A. Lofgren. of Duluth, returned recent
ly from trip over the state, and, in
speaking of the coming election said,
concerning Henry Truelsen and his run
found him strong was out In Stearns
county. They think pretty well of the
ex-mayor cut there, and Heinrich will
poll q big vote. The Democrats in that
county have heard of Truelsen and seem
to think he is about the thing for the
ticket. He will get twice as many votes
out there as Towne did and it will help
him great deal in getting to the front"
No. [ know he won't be elected, but l

Mr.. Truelsen says: ST am not a candi-
date for the state treasurership, nor
would I accept the nomination were it
rendered to me. But 1 am a candidate
for the nomination for congress in this
district, and if ! should be so fortunate
as to receive it I shall leave no stone
unturned to be elected, think the
chances for my election are good. If 1
did not 1 would not care, of course, to
receive the nomination for congress-"
The LIE Sueur Democrat says: lie
Sueur county will have a strong candi-
date for congressional honors in the Fari-
bault convention in the person of Charles
c. Kolars. Mr.. Kolars is. recognized as
one thoroughly qualified and would draw
an immense vote throughout the district
His past political record has been perfect
and If nominated he will win
