SLATE OF THE GAR.
DR.. l. Z. Mahan Has a Strong Lead
for the Office Of Department
Commander.
There Are Three Candidates Men
toned for the Position Of
Senior Vice.

There has been story current in the
twin cities, presumably in the interest of
some dark horse candidate for department
commander, to the effect that DR.. l. L..
Mahan Of st. Paul. the present senior vice
commander of the Grand Army Of the
Republic Of the state, is an official of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition and that
his business In st. Louis last winter was
connected with that enterprise. The facts
In the matter are that DR.. Mahan is libra
rian Of the United States court Of appeals
and that his duties call him to St. Louis
every winter. He goes there about the
1st Of December and remains about five
weeks his duties there commencing on
the first Monday of that month
There was a meeting of the representa-
tiVes of the various posts in st. Paul at
the Metropolitan Hotel last Tuesday night,
and the candidacy of DR.. Mahan for the
office of department commander was en-
Enthusiastically indorsed. That he will be
elected is a Yoregone conclusion. He will
have the hearty support of all the Min
neapolis posts.
There was also a report that Comrade
r.. S. Fisher of st. Paul was a candidate
for a department. office, but this doubtless
arose from a misunderstanding. His wife
is to be presented to the st. Paul corps as
| a candidate for department president OF
the w. r. c., but the comrade is seeking
no new honors.
For the second office in the gift of the
veterans, senior vice department COM
| mander, there appear to be three can
didates, the present Junior vice com
mander, Colonel Harrison White, Of
| Marshall; M. w. Bates of Duluth, and
Judge l.. w. Collins of st. Cloud. AL
! three are strong candidates with geogra-
| phical advantages rather in favor of Col
| onel White. Judge Collins is unquestion
ably the better known of the trio an(
this can be conceded without any dis
paragement to his opponents, and as there
is a feeling on the part of many that thu
! Zine Of promotion scheme has beer
| overworked, his chances are good for cleo
tion. u
AS for junior vice commander. the onl.
known candidate at this time is Charles
H. Taylor, a member Of William Downs
post who resides at Long Prairie in Tod'
county. 1t will probably be urged tha
this is Minneapolis nomination, but
is only technically such, as Mr.. Taylor
family has what is supposed to be a per
manent residence in Long Prairie an
there is no probability that they will eve
make their home in Minneapolis again
Long Prairie is not far from st. Clou
and it may be urged in case of Judg
Collins election senior vice, that tn
junior office should go to the souther
part of the state and there will be a can
didate from that section Forthcoming fas
enough. Should Colonel White meet wit
a not undeserved promotion, however
Comrade Taylor may have the field t
himself for the minor office.

COULDN' Be PROVED
Council Investigation Fails to Re
veal Corroborative Evidence for
Powers Bribery Charges.
Aldermen Decide to Put the Case
Up to the County Au-
..s 4 thorities.

The Powers bribery charges were finally
disposed Of at the council meeting last
evening by the adoption of the report
of the Investigating committee, recon-
mending that the transcript Of evidence be
referred to thescounty attorney and the
judge of the criminal court for such "con
sideration as its weight and Importance
may warrant
mo Charge the report read, has been
made in evidence given, questioning the
honor of the city council or any committee
or member thereof, except the uncor-
roborated statement of Alderman Powers
that he was offered a bribe by a repre-
senta tive Of a hose company
In concluding the report the committee
expressed regret that so serious charge
had been made Gin view of the fact that
on the unsupported testimony of one
misunderstanding it to be true-no Grim
inal proceeding would be warranted nor
could a prediction be predicated thereon"
In explaining his position, Alderman
Powers said it had not been his intention
to entangle any particular member OF
the council. He wished it understood at
the same time that he would not tolerate
| any semblance of bribery in the council il
| his action in exposing any such attempts
| could prevent it, He had told the inves-
| tigating committee the plain, unvarnishe6
truth. 1t was his duty as g. public officia
| to sit down on all forms of corruption
that might creep into the council or toucl
other public officials. ..- ..'
| Since the investigation commenced III
| had been convinced that 1t was next tt
| impossible, under the ruling Of the court
| to prove the offering Of a bribe. He hat
been informed by the county attorne!
that six aldermen had told Of being Of
| fered bribes. The court had ruled tina
| each case was separate and had no bear
! ing on the other. 1t was ridiculous TO
the committee to regret that the charge
had ever been brought up. ..- g."
Speaking for the, committee, Alderman
G. A. Westphar, chairman, said he wa
sorry the committee had been called OF
to investigate charges which necessarily
| brought disrepute upon the council. u
his motion, the proceedings were -entere
on the minutes of the council, and

office. ,H.-.. . =. :.

K0CIAN WILL PLAY HERE
Famous Young Bohemian violinist
to Give Recital This Month
in Minneapolis.

The present musical season in Mime
apolis, which at first did not seem very
promising as to the number OF artists to
be heard in recital here, is now developing
into quite a brilliant season. The inter-
esting announcement is made to-day that
Kocian, the young Bohemian violinist and
classmate, Of Kubelik, is coming
Negotiations for Kocian's appearance
here have been pending for months. but so
great was the demand to hear this 'Wiz-
ard of. the bow that 1t was only after pa
tient and protracted effort that they We're
brought to a successful issue, and ar
rangements finally made for recital here.
At one time the negotiations had been al
most completed for a date here in January,
but they fell through. So insurmountable
seemed the difficulties that it was doubted
whether Minneapolis would have the op-
portunity of hearing young Kocian during
his present tour. At last, however it was
found that a, date could be made for him
while enroute from the: Pacific coast,
where he has met with tremendous sue
cess. That date is March "a, and he will
at that time be heard at Plymouth church.
The bare announcement will doubtless be
sufficient to set the entire musical world
of Minneapolis agog. ~:
