Cardinal Satolli's Visit.

Cardinal Satolli will be in Mime
apolis next week, and committee
was appointed by the knights of Col
umbus at meeting Wednesday even
ing to confer with the St. Paul knights
to make arrangements for his visit.
The members of the committee are
Daniel Woolsey, T. Hull and George
D. Flynn. According to his latest
plans, the cardinal will arrive in the
state capital Monday and will remain
in the Twin Cities until Thursday or
Friday. While he will probably spend
the greater part of his time in st.
Paul, the local Catholics hope to enter
tain him in this city should he visit
here. The cardinal will be the guest
Wednesday evening at reception to
be given in st. Paul by the knights
of Columbus and the Commercial
club. The affair will be held at the
Ryan hotel. If satisfactory arrange
ments cannot be made for joint re-
ception, several smaller affairs will
be rendered the distinguished prelate
during his stay in Minneapolis. His
coming was the principal topic taken
up at the meeting Of the Knights Of
Columbus Wednesday evening.

PAST DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS.

Up to and including 1928 the Demo-
cratic party nominated it's candidates
for the presidency by caucus of it's
members in congress. BY that meth
Cd state not having any Democratic
representation in congress had no
voice in naming the candidate, and of
those states which had Democratic
representation all were equal, for each
state cast but one vote, no matter
how many Democratic members it
had. Thus it happened that state
which could not give it's electoral vote
for candidate had no voice in the
selection Of u candidate, and of those
states which could be expected to cast
it's vote for the candidate, all had an
equal vote, no matter what the num-
Der Of members of congress. The first
Democratic national convention was
held in 1889 and there was great
effort made at that time to hold to the
old rule of allowing each state sim
gle vote. On the other hand, there
was an insistent demand that the
large states should have Il greater
voice in the nomination of candidate
than the small states. These two
contentious led to a compromise
which has ever since been the rule
in Democratic conventions. First in
order to satisfy the demand that each
state should have single vote the
unit rule" was adopted, which makes
it possible for each state through Il
majority of it's delegation to cast it's
entire vote as Il unit on any PROPOSE
ton; second, in order to properly APP
portion the voting strength among the
states it was decided to base the num-
Der of delegates upon the electoral
vote of the state. Thus. it became
the law Of Democratic conventions
that the representation from the diff
ferent states should be proportionate
to it's electoral vote and each state
through majority vote of its dele
| CATION could vote the entire strength
of the state as unit But it at once
became apparent that through this

has heard of Martin Maginnis? Not
the present generation, though back
in the seventies and eighties Major
Maginnis was frequently called upon
to address gatherings in Washington
side by side with Depew and Inger-
soil and Beecher. Senator Thomas H.
Carter, of Montana, formerly chair
man of the Republican national COM
mittee, once told me that if Martin
Maginnis had been Republican in
stead Of Democrat, he would have
been one of the renowned figures of
the nation. But always with the
minority in congress. during recon-
struction days, and then only dele
gate from Il far-off territory, with
voice but no vote in congress, he had
simply served his six terms, and left
Washington with reputation as ora
tor, after-dinner speaker and wit
rarely equalled. Major Maginnis

Of Washington than any public man

possible exception of Senator Teller,
of Colorado. Nor is his acquaintance
confined to statesmen. A Union hero
of Gettysburg. he is we'll known to
all the habitues of the Army and
Navy club ut Washington, while his
rare wit extended his acquaintance
among the actors. Bohemians and
men of leisure who made life in
Washington in the olden days. An

WAR IN THE EAST.

The war in the East will in all like
lihood lag for some time to come, at
least so far as land operations are
concerned. The rainy season has
started in Mancluria which makes it
impossible in that land of roads bad
ut the best, mountain passes and
swamps, to move large bodies of
troops and artillery. For three months
little can he done other than Skin
mishes by. outposts or dashes by cav
airy. In fact, little else has been done
up to the present time. 1t is now
five months since the war began and
there has not been an engagement
which can rightly be designated as
battle between the opposing armies.
There has been a good deal of man
euvering by the armies and resultant
fights by outposts, but nothing else.

Tammany plays the comedians part
telling delegates that Parker cannot
carry New York. Twelve years ago
Tamnuny was ut Chicago telling the
delegates that Cleveland could not win
they were then shouting for David r..
Hill. They have been at st. Louis this
week shouting against Hill. In 1892
Tamnany issued the following official
notice which was distributed among
the delegates: "In reply to inquiries
addressed to us by delegates from
states instructed to vote for Grover
Cleveland. of New York, the delegates

responsibility to the Democracy of the
United states. are constrained to make
answer that. in our best Judgment. Mr..
Clevcand'S nomination would impcril
the success of the party, and would
expose it to the loss of the electoral

paid no attention to the appeal and
nominated Cleveland. He carried New
York by $4,000 and was elected prcSi-
dent by Il majority of no in the cleo
tornl college over both Harrison and
WMvcr. He received plurality of
40O.Mm of the popular vote. Is it any
wonder that the convention at st.
Louis paid no attention to rammany ?
