launching of the steamship Dakota at
New London. Mr.. SarleS is being
groomed for the Republican nomi1la-

while I have been absent from the
state for the past three weeks, my
friends tell me that my prospects for
securing the nomination are excellent.
Gov. Whites principal strength lies i'll

and sentiment at Bismarck exists for
his reelection. This is however, only

out being unduly sanguine, I should
say that my chances for being the
next governor of North Dakota are
excellent" President Joseph Carhart,

on Mr.. Sarles at the Merchants and
told him something Of conditions in
his part of the state. Prof. Carhart

James L. Kinds, the Shakopee law
yer and Democrat, who has been in
the city in attendance upon the A. o.
U. w, of which he was formerly the
head in Minnesota, says that the pres
ent is essentially the time to reunite
all the Democratic elements and to
wage winning fight against the forces
of Republicanisn. 1--WE in our county
are what are known as the conSefVa-
tive element in Democracy" he said
Let the Democrats nominate a man
of the Judge Parker stamp and give
him good, sound platform from which
are eliminated the planks of Popu-
ism, socialism and anarchiSm, and
Carver county will give him an old
time majority. There is thus far no
contest among Democrats for the hon
or of representing the Third district
at the st. Louis convention but | think
1t very probable that conservatism will
prevail in the selection of delegates"
"The Republican leaders of Ramsey
county don't care snap who is nom
mated mayor of this city," said a lead
ing Republican politician last night.
The factions of the party want more
than anything else to control the coun-
ty in the matter Of a declaration for
either Dunn or Collins for governor,
and they don't propose to blow their
energy up against the mayoralty prop
osition when there is nothing to win.
We don't believe that any Republican
can be elected mayor of St Paul this
year, but we are certain Of results in
the gubernatorial game, and we pro-
pose to concentrate our energies in
that fight"
