TO-DAY'S ONV NTION".The representatives of Minnesota Democ-

racy willconvene to-day with a full senseof the responsibility resting upon them.

The convention will be a splendid body of

representative Democrats—

an intelligent,

patriotic ,ly, comprising many of the best

citizens of the state, who will be actuated

by the single motive of promoting Detno-

cratic suceesa and the i.romnUation of

principles which every sincerely loyal Dem-

ocrat can subscribe to. There are many

tlihizs of grave importance which will de-

iuand careful consideration by the conven-tion. The nomination of a state ticket

composed of men who are themselves rep-

resentatives of a liberal and progressive

tnocracv is amatter of great consequence.

Actions speak louder than words, and par-ties, like men, are more apt to be

judged by what they do than by

what they say. So that while the

preparation of a sound platform is

not to be neglected, it is of still more

consequence that the character of the cau-didates who are nominated should be an

earnest of tie sincerity of the platform.

Minaeeeta is a progressive state. Itis one

of the young giants of this great Northwest

that has startled the world with the rapid-

ityof its growth and the grandeur of its

proportions. The party that bids for the

control of its state government must be a

party that is abreast with the progress of

the age and is in sympathy with that

spirit of liberalism which is the expandingpower of our marvelous developement.Xarrow opinions and pent-up policies arsnot suited to the expansive conditions of

this progressive country. Bigotry and old

fogyisni are not adapted to Minnesota's de-veloping processes. Live men and the ap-

plication of living principles are the need

of the hour. The representatives of Minne-

nesota Democracy who will assemble in

this city to-day realize all that is required

of them. and will respond to the

demand? of the hour. There will be aticket nominated to-day upon a platformwhich cannot fail to meet public approba- .tion.

NO OFFICEHOLDERS.To-day's convention willbe an anomaly

in one respect. Itwillpresent a spectaclewhich but few people who are livingiv thisday and generation have witnessed

—of

apoliticalconvention being held composed ofthe representatives of the party in controlof the national government and not a singlefederal officeholder in it. So far as Minne-sota is concerned, the president's civil serv-

ice order has been executed to theletter. Democrats who hold officeunder the federal government have re-frained from intermeddling with localpolitical affairs, and the people havebeen left free to regulate their primarieswithout federal interference. This is inpleasant contrast with the way that Repub-lican state conventions were run under suc-cessive Republican administrations, whenthe conventions were composed almost ex-clusively of federal officeholders and those\u25a0who had been helped to obtain seats in theconvention by the aid of the officeholders.That such a thing can come to pass as astate convention being held without thepresence of federal officeholders is a hope-fulsign that the spirit of civil service re-form is really marching on under a Demo-cratic administration.

ACRY OF FRIGHT.

The frantic appeal being made by the Re-puplican organs to the farmers and Kuightsof Labor in this state tokeep out of politicsLs the besi evidence that the independentpolitical stand taken by these organizationsishaving a wholesome effect. The farmersand the laborers have been footballs for theRepublican leaders in.Minnesota for so longthat the idea of these classes cutting loosefrom Republican domination is a harrowingthought tothe bosses. The monopolies ownthe Republican organization, body and soul,

and they are satisfied as long as the labor-ing classes are content to sit stilland submit to everything that is im-posed upon them. But now thatthe toilers manifest a disposition toorganize for political purposes and to asserttheir power independent ofring domination,the Republican organs rush forward witharguments to prove that independent politi-

cal action on the part of the toiling classeswould be disastrous to the cause of labor.The fallacy of such an argument is appar-ent on the face of it. As lo:.g as labor is atall dependent on political conditions for thepromotion of its welfare, then itfollows as jconclusively as day follows night that the jworkingmen of the country ought to havean independent political organization. Itdoesn't necessarily follow that they shall al-ivays occupy a separate and independentattitude in politics, but it is appropriatethat they should always be in conditionto do so whenever the exieencyrequires it. Ifeither of the leading politi-cal parties in Minnesota should nominate aticket on a platform that would be a guar-

antee that the interests of the farmer andthe workingman would be fullyprotectedunder the administration of that party, thenthere would be no occasion forindependentaction, because all their interests would besubserved by supporting that ticket Itisbecause they do not intend to put up sucha ticket that the Republican bosses arokicking against tho pel itical movementamong the farmers and Knights of Labor.

They dread the result ot such Independ-ence, and they are trying to nipit inthe bud. Nearly thirty years ofuninterrupted supremacy in Minnesotahas made the .Republican party arro-frant. It is not disposed to tolerateindependent action on the part of any of itsmembers. Ithas for so long succeeded inwheedling the tolling masses into submis-sion to its domination that it grows restiveunder a threatened bolt. IIii was true,

v averted by the leading Republican organin thw state, that hiking a hand in statepolitics would result in the disintegration ofthe Farmers' alliance, the Republican bosseswould only be too srlad to lend a belpiog

hand to the movement, for there is nothingthey would more earnestly desire than thetotal extinction of all sorts of labor organi-zations.

DOX.NELLY'S (ONSOI.ATIOX.If the sometimes erratic, but always

brilliant, Igxatjus Donnki.i.y lias notbeen able to accomplish wiiii tho presentstate convention all that he started out witha blowing of trumpets and a waving of ban-ners to do, be has yet some consolation in-termingled with the disagreeable conscious-

ness of a possibility of being shut out ofthe gathering of representative Democratswhich honors St. Paul to-day. Ithas beensaid that the distinguished gentleman'sdearest wish is to occupy as large a share ofthe public attention as possible, and no onecan say that during the events of the lastfew weeks his desire has not been gratified.But now, to put the cap sheaf to the struct-ure of his notoriety, a Chicago paper, theTribune, proceeds to extend his fame bypublishing in a four-column article, adornedwitha picture of Mr. Doxxelia''s good-natured physiognomy, a detailed account ofhis manner of life and Ins laiaous expositionof the probable Baconian origin of theplays generally attributed toSHAKKspEAKE.Thus spared the heart burnings and dis-appointment which would inevitably comeof his participation in the oeliberations ofthe convention, the Sage of Nininger willrise superior to "the slings and arrows ofoutrageous fortune" and wrapping himselfin the mantle of hisSiiAKESi'EAKiAXlove,

will remain happy In tho consolatorythought that whether the convention grapesare sweet or sour, he has been heralded tothe sons ofmen by an influential newspaperas "the most noted author nowlivingivAmerica."

THEY ARE SCARED*There i-> very good reason for the inter-

est with which the Republicans are regard-ingto-day's Democratic state convention.Itis an interest born of the anticipationthat to-day willbe named the man whowill give their candidate the closest raceMinnesota has yet seen for the governor-ship and who willvery likely arrive tirst attlje goal. This feeling of the probability ofdefeat has been growing ever since the Re-publicans observed with alarm the indis-position of the people to become enthusiasticover the alleged merits of the various Re-publican candidates. Concerning these, infact, there has been an apathy throughoutthe state in strong contrast to the hearti-ness with which the bright prospects ofDemocratic success have been haile.d. Sovivid has become their concern that byevery means in their power the Republicanshave endeavored to foment discord in theDemocratic forces. That they have failedand that a united and harmonious conven-tion will to-day select the champions of thepeople against the monopolistic ring whichhas ruled for so long iv this state, isnotdiieto auy lack of persistent effort on theirpart. The Republicans can no longer dis-guise the fact that they are scared. Itre-mains for the voters, by a vigorous supportof the nominees that the convention whichmeets to-day willname, to turn their frightinto a stampede.

FAREWELL, BROTHER BL.AIXE.Mr. lii.AiNF.'s prestige is apparently on

the wane. The result of the Maine electionyesterday was not consoling to the woundedambition of the Plumed Knight. If hesaved his bacon it was saved by such a closescratch that it is equivalent to a defeat.Mr. Blame made a big tight, for he hadbig stakes in the political game which wasplayed in Maine. So far as New Englandis concerned, Edmunds is on top now.His complete vindication in the Vermontelection and Mr. Blaixe's failure inMaine gives Mr. Edmuxds all the advan-tage as the Eastern candidate for the Re-publican nomination. It also elevatesLogan and Sherman stock, fora Westernman, even though he could not tilta lancewith the Plumed Kuight, ought to be ab.eto stand up against the Vermont iceberg.It isn't the proper thing to do to preachthe funeral sermon before a man dies, butMr. Blame is so close to the door of hispolitical death that the funeral orator mayas well begin to prepare his brief. Hecan't stand many more such raps as he gotyesterday.

AX IRISH JLAXD WAR.Itis evident that the British cabinet de-

sires to provoke an Irish outbreak. LordChcrcuxli- admits that the rents are toohi{£h, yet the Tory leaders willnot agree tothe passage of Mr. Pakxell's bill, whichwillsuspend evictious on the payment ofthree-fourths of the rental pending the re-vision of the rents by the courts. Ivmostcases the Irish tenants are unable to payfullrents to their English landlords on ac-count of the fallof prices in agriculturalproducts. And yet the English ministrywillsend troops to evict the tenants ontheir failufe to pay the re its. Itwould beexpecting too much of hitman nature, andof Irish nature particularly, if thetenants did not resist forcible evic-tion. Eviction under existing circum-stances would be an exercise of tyrannicalpower that willnot be tolerated iv this civ-ilized ace. The British ministry may thinkthat itwillbe an easy matter to crush a re-bellion in Ireland, but the mistake willbediscovered when it is once attempted. Allthe world, outside of England, willbe insympathy with Ireland, and one-half ofthe English people willoppose the govern-ment inits effort to exercise such crueltyranny.

Chicago is one of the richest cities in thecountry and one of the most ostentatious. Aday or two ago a Chicago woman attemptedto murder her two little children and thencommitted suicide because she could not getbread for her starring little ones. Thereseems tobe » moral somewhere.

Itis not to St. Paul's credit that her con-tribution to aid the Charleston sufferers is sofar towards the bottom of the list, but per-haps she intends to make itup by the warmth i

of the welcome she will extend to theChark-s---tonians who are contemplating locating inthis city. _

IrishAffairs.Dublin, Sept.

—Three moonlight

raids took place last night, all of themclose to the headquarters of Gen. Sir Red-vers Buller. William Outfe, a bailiff, whohad mmle himself very obnoxious by hiscruel treatment of a woman whom he hadrecently evicted, went early to attend massin the Belearra chapel. When the men andwomen of tho congregation who were inthe chapel noticed Ouffe's presence they be-came very indignant, and the men draggedhim from the building. When they hadhim outside they turned him over to thewomen, who were bogging "for a chanceat him.' 1 Among these women weretwelve whom Cutle had evicted. Thesewomen were furious, and they fell uponthe bailitl and

HEAT HIMUNMERCIFULLY.Subsequently the priest, who is also the

president of the local branch of the Na-tional league, admitted the battered bailiffto hear mass, and this mercy for the unfor-tunate man has almost caused a rebellionagainst the priest. Moonlighters brokeinto a house in Tralee, County Kerry, lastnight, and with drawn revolvers searchedthe premises for arms. They found noth-ing but a sword, which had been carried byone ot the family ancestors in the revolu-tion01 17'JS, and which had been carefullypreserved as a family relic. The moon-lighters took the sword away. Most of theteuants of the O'Flalierty' estate nearLongford have accepted the offer of theirlandlord to sell them all their holdings at aprice equal to the sum of sixteen years'rent. As none of the tenants of the O Fla-herty estates have had their rents fixedunder the land act of 1881, the purchaseswillbe based on the old rents.

The Irish Loyal and Patriotic union hasissued a

PAMPHLET ON THE IRISHQUESTIONfor the use of members of the house ofcommons and the pre.ss.

"Tne status of the Irish farmer," sayß thepamphlet "hHS within the past sixteen yearsunilurjfouoa marked aiueliorntiou owin^r tovarious remedial statute. Tnere has cer-

parnell's land bill.London, Sept. 13.

—The Parnell land

bill as re-drafted suspends eviction uponpayment into.court of half the rent due.Many Gladstonians disapprove of theamount of the reduction. The Parnellitesassert that the full values justify a demandof over 50 per cent, reduction. Mr.Par-nell, in a conference with Mr. John Mor-ey. urges a reduction of 75 per cent., buton Mr.Morley's advice he limited this re-duction to 50 per cent. Leaseholders areincluded in the bill. The government's re-sponse willbe that Mr.Parnell's data is in-accurate, that the Dublin executive returnsof market values for 1885-86 show that the'reduction inprices inIreland is less than inEngland and Scotland, ranging from 10 to15 per cent. Sir Michael Hicks-Beach andLordRandolph Churchil, willdeny that thebulk of the Irish tenants willbe unable topay their rents inNovember, or that

A.HOST OP EVICTION'Sare probable. The second reading of theParnell billwill take place on Friday. , Mr.Gladstone has privately announced that hewillreturn to London on Saturday, andthat he hopes to take part in the debate onMonday. Itisunderstaod that he willsup-port the Parnell bill. His promised pres-ence is already rallying the Gladstonians.The Unionist whips have sent an appeal toUnionist members in the country to returnto London and vote against the bill. Thegovernment also insists upon the recall ofabsentees. The Conservatives' attempt tocurtail the debate to one night willbe inrain. The debate will probably extendover four nights.

In1883 Irish holdings numbered 555,254.Evictions during the first six months of1880 numbered only 2,007. a vast majoritybeing for more than one year's arrears.Carefully prepared returns show that therewere only 860 cases of absolute removal,many having been readmitted, indeed,many of the 860 were reinstated as care-takers. An.additional important fact isthat by the county court rules in all cases ofejectment the judge is able to grant such astay ofexecution as under the circumstanceshe considers reasonable, a similar coursebeing frequent in the superior courts. Re-garding the money subscribed for the agi-tation, itis needless to remind the publicthat the Nationalists boast that even thepoorest and neediest people have showntheir sympathy with the agitation by theextent and continuance of contributions.Itis needless here to inquire into the. truthof the matter, or to inquire

HOW MUCH COMPULSIONwas necessary in obtaining money. Allthat is required is that a hard stern factshould be noted carefully. The land leaeuewas started in 1879, its avowed object beingto assist the Irish tenantry. The firstpractical move was to commence drawing

subscriptions. The following rieures aretaken from Parnellite prints: From Octo-ber, 1579, until the government suppressedthe league, in October, ISBI, the landleague received from Great Britain and Ire-land £11,804. During the same periodthere was subscribed for the fair trial fund£1,024, and for the relief of distress £943.The last named fund

RECEIVED FROMALL SOURCES£60.672 Of which £10,000 was. diverted tothe Parnellite political fund and a balanceof £3,658 is entirely unaccounted for. TheParnellite defense fund amounted to £17,---961, the total received being £20,461, andthere is a balance of £8.461 unaccountedfor. There were subscribed to the Kennyand Father Sheehy testimoninials £2.540and to sundry funds for suspects £3,500.The land leaeue was succeeded by the La-dies league, of '\u25a0 which the prisoners' sus-tentation committee received from Irelandand Great Britain a total of .£39,176. Thiscommittee gave place to another whiclimet at ;,Dublin Mansion house, ap-pealing.' for relief for evictedtenants and which received £8,500.Then came the Parnell testimonial, towhich the Irish at home subscribed £33,808of the £40,000. The Mational league, com-menced in 1883. lias up to the present re-ceived £23.650 from Irish branches. Con-:currently with exactions levied by theIleague, subscribers in Ireland supplied the£500 line imposed on Mr. Gray for con-tempt of court, and £8,300 to defray theexpenses of Mr. O'Brien ivconnection withthe public aeaudala in 1884.

A Panic In Church.•Viesjta, Sept. 13.—During the celebra-

InRadna, Transylvania, yesterday morn-'

TKJE CZAR AND EMPEROR.

The Ruler* of Austria and Russiarutting Tneir Aruiie* in GoodShupe. .Vienna, Sept. 18.—Emperor Francis

Joseph yesterday attended a banquet givenby the officers of the army participating inthe maneuvers at the camp at Lubien. Heproposed the health of the czar, which wasresponded to with cheers and which theband re-echoed by playing the Russian an-theni. News of this reached the czar atBrest Livotzk, in Poland, and he at oncetelegraphed his thanks, and the telegramreached the Austrian eniDeror during thenight.

The Neve Freie Presse of Vienna says itisnoteworthy that the Russian militarymaneuvers are taking place at the precisecorner of the Russian dominions whichwould be the principal theater of war inthe event of a Russian conflict with Aus-tria. Emperor Francis Joseph is at thesame time reviewing an equal number ofAustrian troops, the total being over 60.000men, at the point which would naturally bechosen as the Austrian base of operationsin the same event. "Thus, we see," says,the Neve Freie Presse, "two rival campsand two rival courts almost within sight ofeach other."

THE BULGARIANCRISIS.

What the Czar Ha* toSar inReply-to Keceal Proposals-- A Loan Re-filled.London, Sept. 13.—The national assem-

bly met at Sofia to-day. The Russianagent has received the czar's reply to Bul-garia's proposals. The czar says Russiawillrecognize the Bulgarian regency andassist the union of Bulgaria and EasternRoumelia, on condition that ro acts of vio-lence be committed. Russia advises thatpublic opinion in Bulgaria be allowed tocalm down before a new prince be electedto the Bulgarian throne. The Russianagent has not yet communicated the czar'sreply to the Bulgarian government, becausethe relations between the present Bulgarianministers and himself are very strained.During the sitting of the national assemblyto-day several of the deputies proposedthat the Bulgarian government send a tele-gram to the czar, requesting him to com-municate with the Bulgarian governmentdirect instead of through the agent. AGerman banking house has declined a pro-posal from the Bulgarian government forraising a loan for that country.

boats have been arrested by the authoritiesfor infringing the law, which forbids for-eign fishing vessels to enter the Frenchports, except when compelled to by stressof weather or.want of provisions. Itis de-nied that the arrests partake of

testant alliance willmeet to consider LordRandolph Churchill's reply to its protestagainst the appointment of Mr. HenryMatthews to the home secretaryship, whichwas brouerht on the ground that he was aRoman Catholic. Rev. James Paton, di-rector of the alliance, has addressed a let-ter to Lord Churchill, in which he says:

of Minneapolis to the visitingmembers of tbePennsylvania State Millera* association, themembers of the executive committee of theNational Millers' association, and representa-tive millers of the Northwest at theWest hotel last evening 1 was one of the hap-piest events of the kind tbat has even beenheld in the city. Plates were laid for 124,and an elaborate menu was enjoyed, whi'ethe Danz orchestra furnished enlivening

music. At the conclusion of the feast Howof soul followed. John Crosby presided astoastmaster.

His remarks occasioned a greatdeal ofmerriment, and when he concludedwith a few words of advice, to "Cutber loose, Gallagher" the banquethall fairly resounded with cheers.The Eastern millinginrturtrywas responded toby H.S. Klington,of Iluttler, Pa. Tho millsofPennsylvania, he said, had thus far beenunable to supply the consumption of thestate, but their ambition was to competewith the mills of Minneapolis ina friendly way, and they hadcomo geekiny profit in a flnnau-cial as well as a social sense.J. A. Hanley, general freight agent of theManitoba road, was called upon for remarksand promised immunity tothe Pennsylvaniamembers from the encroachments of the en-terprising flour grinders of tne Northwest.This included the formal listof toasts, and tbenumerous addresses of a pleasant and Jovialnature were made by both tbe Minneapolismembers and their guests without discrimin-ation. The occasion was a most enjoyableone, and rarely, ifever, have representativesofany industry spent a more pleasant andprofitable evening in meeting those identifiedwrth the various interests identified withtheir trades. _____

Senator Katillly, of Lake City—lhavepreached Deaei) until lam tired of it. Idon'tbelieve in a boss. Kelly nor Ames oan dic-tate to tbe party. Doran Is a grood man andhas always been a good man, but no two mencan control the Democratic party. The con-vention must decide what to do. There isplenty of bad blood in Wabasha county, andItwill make Itself apparent in the comingelection. Ihate to see the present discoid.We could have won if we had beenunited. Amos is very strong In thecountry. 1willnot stand again as a candi-date for senator. Ihave enough of politics.Ihave beta a Democrat for thirty years, andhave seen the Democratic party in Wabashacounty grow from a mere handful of fiftyvoters until,in 18S4, we gave 350 majority forCleveland. And now two men step in and tryto run the party. I'llstand no more of it.

The composition of the new srute centralcommittee is merely a mutter of surmise.There are any number of names mentioned,

but no slates have been made up. Therewill, of course, be a number of changes.Smith. Buck, McDonald and Campbell, of thepresent committee, will have to be retiredbecause of the fact that they now hold federaloffices. Glenn willbe plated on the commit-tee to represent Ames and the Minneapolisdistrict

M. Doran—

T don't want the governorship.Itlooks as ifAmes was the choice. The com-mittee willconsider the consider the resolu-tions of the Farmers' alliance and the Knightsor Labor if they are presented. ThPre willbeno trouble in the convention. Idon't thinkthe contesting delegation from Ramseycounty will be heard. 1don't even considerit as a contest.

John F. Norrish, Hastings— lf Donnellydoes make a light to get in his delegation itwill do him no good. He will be squelched.We are good hickory timber down our way,and it wont split,either. Donnelly has seenhis day in Dakota county. Why. he couldn'tcarry Nininger ifa fight was made againsthim there.

Col. William Crooks, of St. Paul—Theyought to be clear on the question of honestmoney, and they ought not to overlook itintheir platform. Gold and silver of equalvalue, and paper interchangeable with hoth.Let the government buy its silver at homeand not go to foreign count lies.

Judge Rand and OrvilleReinhart, of Min-neapolis came over from Ames' headquar-ters, called Kelly out of the meeting of thestate central committee and had a long con-sultation with him on a sofa in the parlorcorridor. Itlooke 1 like a love feast.

The executive committee of the YoungMen's Republican club met in secret s essionlust night, and outlined a plan for campaignwork. Tiie club willboom McGill for gov-ernor until the convention.

Tom Bowen, of Sleepy Eye, will lead theanti-Kelly contingent in the convontion. Itis probably not amiss to remind him that hehad better keep his eye open and lookout foran ambush.

Gen. J. H. Baker—

The Democrats could dono better than nominate Judge Severance, ofMankato, for supreme jurtge. The Republi-cans would certainly indorse him.

John F. Measrher, Mankato—

We are not forKellyor Ames, but for thfibest man and har-mony. We have no candidates for places onthe state ticket down our way.

Chairman Doran was inclined to be lenientwhen he heard the news from Winona. Hesaid he didn't think Buck took any part incontest one way or the other.

Ralph Metcalf came up • with the Winonadelegation. He has a great admiration forKelly,although he was backing the delega-tion that Kellymassacred.

The Columbia society willhold a meeting at

TALK I.N MINNEAPOLIS.

Various Rumors Afloat--Tlie Hen-nepln Delegation's Descent on theSaintly City In-Day.

So many delegates found it convenient toapproach St. Paul by way of Minneapolisthat the latter city was full of them yester-day, and Mayor Ames held a perfect leveeall day. By evening, however, they hadall disappeared for St. Paul, as well asmany of the leading local politicians and afew of. the Hennepin delegation Amongthe earlier arrivals were the delegates fromBrown county, headed by T. E. Bowen, ofthe Sleepy Eye Herald, and in companywith J. J. Thornton, of St. James. Itwas supposed they were all cocked andprimed for Henry Poehler, of their county,for lieutenant governor, but inquiry devel-oped the fact that some of them did noteven know he was a candidate, and hadtheir eyes turned upon John Ludwig,ofWinona. They are all warm champions ofAmes and are confident of his nominationby acclamation. -\u25a0 "It would help ourcounty ticket very much," said Mr. Bowen,"if the Kellv-Doran regime should get a ;back-set The people out there are expect-ing it." \u0084/ :.;.','THE ORGAjriZATIOJT OP TITE CONVENTIONwas a fruitful theme with - the delegates,though no nart cular name for chairman

] was suggested. Whether any fight would be

precipitated Inthe temporary organization,ifat all, was discussed iv all its bearings,and the opinion were general that a moreharmonious gathering: would result thanhad been generally anticipated. "We can-not afford to have a row at this time." saida Fergus Falis delegate, and the sentiment;met the popular approval. Delegates whobrought in the idea gathered at home, thata war was on between Mayor Ames andMessrs Kellyand Doran, were quickly un-deceived, and while a few expressed theirregret, the majority was highly pleased atthis apparent easy settlement of what hadseemed a vexedl problem. There seemedvery little sympathy for Donnelly or hi.sideas, and more than one delegate referredto the sage as an apple of discord that hadbest be kept out of the Democratic love-feast. The misfortunes of H. H. Fullerseemed also to excite amusement ratherthan sorrow, and that Fuller, after his gi-gantic claims, was a poor general, seemedthe current opinion. Itwas reportedAN AGRKEMKXT HAD BEEN REACHEDbetween Ames and Kelly and Doran bywhich harmony and accord were secured.Under this, if true, Doran is to retain hisposition as chairman of the state centralcommittee, but the committee is to benamed by Ames. Itis held to be of thehighest importance that the committee beinperfect accord and sympathy with thenominee, and that Kelly and Doran areboth too good Democrats to oppose this. Amistaken impression has crept out in re-gard to Col. Glenn, and the correction of ithas done much to promote harmony. Theidea was that Glenn was seeking to super-sede Doran on the committee, and thatAmes was furthering tins ambition; butGlenn emphatically ends that story by theannouncement that he is looking for nosuch thing, and would not have it if tend-ered to him on a silver salver, but willdohis utmost, in his individual capacity, tosecure the success of the ticket nominated.

ANOTHER STOKYbrought in by some of the western delegatesis to the etfect that Doran and Kelly hadagreed to support Ames for the nominationand slaugter him at the polls. Though en-tirely discredited, it created no little talkand caused several delegates to suggest awholesale capture of the convention. Whileitis the general opinion that the only op-position toAmes will be from the friendsof John Frank, and that while Ames willbe nominated by acclamation, no one seemsto know how much of his strength is alsostrength as against Kelly and Doran. orwhether it would be the part of wisd.mi toattempt to down those powerful leaders ivthe convention. From what could belearned. Mayor Ames expects nothing butfriendship and friendly acts from them andis smilingly serene in his anticipations ofwhac to-day may bring foith. He spentyesterday afternoon and evening in St.Paul and willremain there "until the con-vention chooses."

THE HEN'NEPIX DELEGATION'

has made elaborate preparations for its de-scent on St. Paul to-day. Armed withshining plug hats and loaded with yellowcanes, it willtake the 7:;>0 Manitoba train.A party of two hundred, with unilormhats, is expected to accompany the delega-tion, and a band will escort it from thedepot to the convention hall.

There has been considerable talk of theprobable platform to be presented, and allof it is very wide of the mark. One hasbeen prepared which the convention may ormay not accept. Itdeals in no high plati-tudes or glittering generalities, but is short,sharp and to the point. Andrew Jacksonresolutions are steered clear of, and thedocument is a plain, staightforward argu-ment to the voters of Minnesota, settingforth the principles to which the party ispledged. On matters pertaining to the tar-iff, the fanner and the laborer, it is ad-vanced but radical, and cannot failof beingimpressive, and its arraignment ofKepubli-can inefficiency and insufficiency duringtwenty-six years of power is decisive andconvincing.

VARIOUS JOTTINGS.

Col. Glenn said that the statement purport-ing- to emanate from the brain of a Democratto the effect that he has a knife wellwhettedfor the scalps of Kellyand Doran is purely afabricatiou, the conception of .an ingeniousmember of the opposition. He wishes itdis-tinctlyunderstood that he has never had afight with either Kellyor Doran, but that hehas no particular love forDoran. Yet h•isKelly's friend •

Ed Dankel, of New Ulni,is so wellpleasedwith Minneapolis that he iB resolred to getelected delegate to every state .convention infuture years, so he willhave an opportunityto renew acquaintances and pleJge new vowsof loyalty to Mayor Ames. He is accompa-nied by E. G. Pahl, also of New TJlm, andCuarles Berg, ofSleepy Eye.

Ignatius Donnelly was an early arrival,buthe had little to say, and no particular adviceto offer delegates, further than to urge themto stand by Mayor Am-:-s. He gave it as hisuuorejudiced opinion, however, that MayorAmes will receive the nomination by a two-thirds vote of the entire convention.

L. H. Thompson and John 0 Gorman, ofAda, were delighted with the Exposition.They are first, last and all the time lor Amesfor governor, and predict his nomination byacclamation.

F. A. Noble and John Kennedy, of theNorthfield delegation, came up and shookhand? with Mayor Ames previous to the lat-ter's departure for St. Paul in the afternoon.

D. R.P. Hibbs, of Albert Lea, sees no rea-son for fearing a rupture in tne party. Hehas confidence in tuo power of the frieads ofthe candidate to heal all oid sores.

T. E. Brown, of Sleepy Eye, feels confid entthat Mayor Ames is certaiu of not onlj tbenomination, but of an election inNovember.

J. J. Thornton, of St- James, is pernapsthe most enthusiastic Ames supporter of anyof the delegates from a distance.
