SOME COUNTY POLITICS.

w. A Washburne is candidate for the
Republican nomination for abstract clerk.
To the Editor of the Globe: The sug-
gestion Of the name Of N. F. Segers as
Fourth ward Democratic candidate for
sheriff has met with a most enthusiastic
response from his many political friends.
The Fourth ward has no other candidate
for the office IS united in his support and
proposes to push his candidacy until the
close Of the county convention.
It should not be forgotten that at the
last city election the Fourth ward polled
the largest vote for the head of the
Democratic ticket, In proportion 70 its
registration, Of any ward in st. Paul.
The most sanguine Democrat looked for
400 votes at the best. When the ballots
were counted it was found that Robert A.
Smith had polled 623 votes
There was no more interchangeable worker
in producing this result than n. F. Sc
gers. He is well known and popular in
three wards and can go into the conven-
ton with as much strength as any other
candidate. Fourth ward Democrats are
proud to present his name as candidate
for the office of sheriff of Ramsey county
and are loyal in their support of man
In every way capable Of filling the Office.
Fourth Ward Democrat.
Harry Hardick is making a fight to get
the Republican nomination for sheriff and
feels confident that he will land it.
But then there is Paul QuehI Of the
Sixth ward, who also thinks he will land
the nomination and is not leaving any
stones unturned where they will benefit
him in his fight for the nomination.
Philip G. Justus is also an active can
didate for the Republican nomination for
sheriff, as are also number Of others,
and the fight for this nomination Is like
ly to develop some lively times In the Re
publican county convention.
Herchmer Johnston has not forgotten
that he is candidate for the Republican
nomination for county attorney and is
slowly but surely making his wy to-
wards corralling the nomination.
The nearer it gets toward the time of
holding the Democratic county conven-
ton, the surer become the chances of
Thomas r. Kane for the nomination for
county attorney. One thing is certain and
that Is that, If nominated Thomas r.
Kane will leave the Republican candi-
date so far behind that he won't know
he is running.

HARRISON WAS CHOSEN.

HIS Former Comrades Protested

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, July 2o-At the
annual reunion of the Seventeen Indiana
regiment at Bethany park today, some
opposition developed when the nominat-
ing committee recommended that ex-
Presirent Harrison be reelected presi-
dent of the association. It was stated
that he had not attended q reunion of
the regiment for years, and for that
reason seemed to have lost interest in its
affairs.
A vote was taken. which resulted in
Gen. Harrison's election. Those opposing
him favored Col. Samuel Merrill, of
California, who was present and declined
the honor in favor of Gen. Harrison.

Every railroad man is interested in
the facts and figures which are com
piled by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. Those relating to the
equipment Of roads in the United
States are particularly interesting.
Over thirty six thousand locomotives
are in use. Ten thousand of them are
classed as passenger engines; twenty
thousand are employed in the freight
service. while the remainder are used
for switching and miscellaneous pur-
poses.
A million three hundred and seven
~ thousand cars are in operation on
the roads of the country, but of the
number less than thirty five thousand
are passenger coaches. One million
two hundred an,; ninety five thousand
cars are said to be used in the hauling
Of the freight of the country, and
something over forty five thousand
cars are devoted to the service of the
roads alone.
To each hundred miles of line there
is yearly average of twenty locomo
tives, and 734 cars, carrying 81 ,S7S
passengers and 1,474,765 passenger
miles were accomplished.
Each freight locomotive is said to
have averaged to carry AZ, 1903 tons of
freight, accomplishing 1886, 900 miles.
