NOTES AND COMMENTS

Military rule recently threatened the
largest city in Colorado, if press dis
patches are to be believed. At the city
election in Denver the militia was held
in readiness for an instant call to duty,
but the governor became convinced
that steps had been taken by the citi-
zens to forcibly resent this attack upon
their liberties, and wisely refrained
from using the military power to in
timidate the voters. The election Of
the democratic candidate for mayor by
a large plurality over his republican
competitor is looked upon as direct
reputation of the republican state adj
ministration and Governor Peabody.
Adjutant General Bell, who has be-
come conspicuous through his heart
less conduct in the mining districts of
Colorado, as we'll as by his brutality
to the union miners arrested and kept
in prison of the Command for the second
in prison at his command, and in de-
fiance Of orders of the courts for their
release, has risigned, intending to go
to Mexico to engage in the mining in
dustry. The governor and his military
ally refuse to discuss the resignation,
but it is believed that the friendly rela-
tions between the pair have been rup-
tured as result Of recent occurrences.
No tears will be shed by the working
people or their sympathizers over the
departure Of Bell from the Centennial
State.

CONVENTION AFTERMATH

With two ideas. SO widely at vari-
delegates, it is only natural that the
Democratic state convention, which
lust closed here, should not have been
\cll peace and harmony. Political Diff
Ifcrences are ever productive Of strife
,cnG party leadership can only be OBJ
'tained after Il struggle. Yet in few
ii1:tances has the differences been
tridged SO quickly as in the gathering
which ended in a blaze of glory on
Tuesday night
When the Democrats assembled here
lit was we'll understood that there were
two factions in the party, each strug-
lgllng for the mastery. One believed
that the candidacy of Hearst for the
presidency would best subserve the in
terests Of the party, and they were
determined that the support Of the
Minnesota Democracy should be pledg-
led to him at all times. The other
element, while not openly avowing the
candidacy of Judge Parker, was I'M

and was equally bent upon gaining it's
Point.
These were the two elements which
dominated the convention and which
fought one of the most gallant and de-
terlnined battles ever seen on the floor
of state convection. 1t was sharp and
decisive yet was supported by every
weapon which could be brought to
bear, in an effort to gain a victory.
And who won?
Was 1t the element which was un-
der the leadership Of John Lind, c. D
'O'Brien and L. A. Rosing, or was 1t
the men who rallied to the standard
of Frank D. Larrabee?
Safely may it be said that it was
a victory In which the spoils were dl
vlded equally. Each side has felt
some Of the anguish Of defeat and each
faction obtained some Of the sweets Of
victory. The Hearst supporters gain
ed their point in that they had thu
permanent organization of the conven-
1ion at their disposal. The anti
Hearst element had the satisfaction OF
securing the majority of the delegates

!DULUTH AS A CONVENTION CITY.


F.: During the past ten days, this city
thas entertained five conventions, all of
jthem state bodies. Delegates from
every corner of Minnesota have jour-
neyed to this city to participate in
the deliberations and their friends at
home have watched with interest for
the accounts Of their doings. Churches
lodges and political parties have Sc
lected this city as their meeting place
and have been made welcome here.
That the choice which fell on Du-
luth was happy one, every dele
gate who attended a convention here
is willing TO testify. Universal praise
for the Zenith city was spoken on
every side. People who made their
first trips to the head of the lakes
were astonished at the size of this
city, it's evidences of prosperity and its
manifest commercial importance. Its
shipping interests and it's scenery came
in for equal admiration and the
wealth of It's tributary territory could
only be conjectured.
Unlimited possibilities have been
|cpened up through this first attempt
IF Duluth to become a convention
city. Formerly st. Paul and Minne-
iapolis, by reason Of their central To-
cation, were accorded this honor, and
they reaped the profits. Delegates
have poured into these two cities and
have sweltered through session, sew
eral days in length and have gone
,;.Way dissatisfied. Duluth has
chance to divert the tide of delegates
ito this city and reap the profits there
from. The advertising the city obtains
Will alone repay the effort. But
aside from that there is a pecuniary
benefit in the money which is spent
here.
The greatness Of Duluth is one Of
the attainments which is desired by
organized labor as much as by any
other interest in the city. It would
be one Of the first to reap the benefits
ard it is now one of the first to put it's
shoulder to the wheel to accomplish
this end.
