At 1920 Wednesday afternoon the
fire department was called to the rear
of E. w. Breece's residence, East
Hamtramck street, where small
building used as smoke house by
the firm of Ralph Brock & Co., was on
fire. The structure was almost de-
stroyed. The department used the
chemicals in keeping the blaze from
extending to the adjacent buildings.
The fire caught from an over-heated
stove in the building. There was con-
siderable meat destroyed during the
progress of the fire. There was no in

DEMOCRATS
OF Minnesota In A Lively
Session

Mlnneapons, MIMI, July IA live
ly and interesting session is predicted
for the Democratic State convention
which will meet in the auditorium
here tomorrow to nominate candidates
for governor, lieutenant governor, sec.
retary of state, treasurer and other
state officers to be voted for next No.
vember. The convention will be COM
posed of over 1000 delegates, and
majority of them are already here.
Although the outlook for Democratic
success in Minnesota this year is not
regarded so bright as 1t might be, still
the party leaders generally entertain
feeling of confidence and believe
that with the right candidate for gov
ernor they will stand an even chance.
Since the death of Governor Johnson
the Democrats have lost control of the
State House machine, as all the other
state officers are Republican, and the
the state is normally Republican by
$4,000.
ht llNtlltSI ulSCuSSlOll III
rows convention is likely to be over
the county option issue. Many of the
party leaders believe the Democrats
this year should seek to secure con
troll of the legislature on county op
ton issue, which the Republicans have
rejected. On the other hand, there
| i,A.tnnfia1 &c r,hn
are opposed to declaration in favor
of county option, chiefly because they
believe that it would cost the party
the large German vote and arouse bit
ter opposition on the part of the brew
cry and liquor interests. The intro
duction of the subject in the conven-
tion is certain to precipitate spirit
ual debate, but the county optionists
express confidence in their ultimate
victory.
The situation in regard to the CUB
ernatorial nomination remains un-
changed. The prospects are that the
convention will nominate John Lind as
the candidate for governor, in spite of
the former governors refusal to be the
party standard bearer. Mr.. Lind has
fatty declared that he will not accept
the nomination and has fled to the
Pacific coast in an effort to escape the
opportunities of his friends. But not
withstanding his refusal the prevail
ing opinion seems to be that the form
er governor will be named and that he
will be persuaded to accept the nomi'
nation, providing that county option
is made the chief issue of the cam
paign. Mr.. Lind is pronounced in fav-
or of county option, and his friends
believe there is no chance of his ac-
cepting the nomination unless there
be county option plank in the plat
form.
Congressman w. S. Hammond is re-
garded as strong reserve candidate
for the head of the ticket. He is max.
ing no effort to secure the nomination
but would doubtless accept it at the
hands of the convention. He is well
thought of by all of the anti-Lind fore
es and the opponents of county option
generally.
