This will be an eventful day for the Repub licans of Hennepiu county. The result of the convention will demonstrate whether or not the young won are to be given a voice in the selection of candidates. Bill Wash burn threatens to spring a measure which will knock out tbe young men, but consider- Ing the ignominious defeat be Buffered in his home precinct on Saturday night, Bill's threats have no element of terror to the youngsters. The latter have found out at last that the kid gloved aristocrat is a very ordinary man, aside from bis wealth. The Globe has already given its readers a list of the ambitious aspirants who will come into the convention to make a straggle for nominations. For the offices of auditor, register of deeds, clerk of the courts, surveyor and court commissioner there is no contest. It is pretty well under stood that the present incumbents, Frank -. McDonald, George Huhu, Ed. J. Daven port, Frank Plummer and Robert Jamison will have no opposition. But the scramble for the other positions will develop into a desperate struggle. The factional strife will be bitter, and the factions of any importance have narrowed down to the Gilflllan and the anti-Gilullan. Some of the candidates for nomination are expecting to ride in on the one, while others anticipate securing a ma jority of the convention on the other side of the congressional fence. A care ful observer must conclude, too, that the young men now have the longer end of the rope. They have behind them the patent in lluence of older heads, and of shrewd politi cians and successful wirepullers, so that while the Gilfillanites, as summed up by some of the Republicans, would seem to be in the majority. When the final test comes they will be "whipped out of their boots." The number who are seeking legislative nominations are In excess of the usual, and is partiaUv owing: to this fact that & (}. Hicks ! was laid low .in his primary — the vote being 570 to 189. The doughty colonel who flaunts the "bloody shirt" on every occasion possible, and shouts himself hoarse for the g. o. p. because of its war record, is now In too fee ble political condition to think of having his name presented for nomination in the Twenty-ninth senatorial district. Yet, it is claimed he is liable to revive sufficiently to make one rally. Win:\ the vote hod been counted in Bill Wnshuurn's precinct Saturday night, that great statesman cried out "This is the great est outrage ever perpetrated in this ward. I want to give it my stamp of indignant dis approval." 1!. L. Gordon pertinently rejoined, "Mr. Washbura, you have bull dozed this ward for ten years. It is now lime for you to take a back seat," and BUI "slunk" away. Am>. Si.y is the man who is to present in the convention to-day the resolution in. lur ing Giltlllan's candidacy.

SOME OF THE SPEECHES. I President Davenport, upon takloc v»r»t. THE FAUL DAILY C-rLOBE, TUESDAY MOKNIMU, SEPTEMBER 23, 1884/ made a brief but pointed address, in which , he urged the necessity, of organization and • the importance of the present campaign. '*'.. Aid. Walsh said,- as a Democrat and resi dent of the Sixth ward, that he felt proud of the meeting, both us to members and the character of the men present. The Demo crats, he said, should not desert their cause at the eve of apparent victory. : Concerning Gov. Cleveland, he said the Democrats might well be proud of their candidate, as a man who had been tried and not found wanting; as a man against whose political and official record his enemies could find nothing to say, and are compelled to confine themselves to attacks upon ' his private character, methods which will avail nothing, but illus trates the extremity to which they are forced. Instead of being an enemy to the working men investigation shows that.be has vetoed measures which were . really detrimental to the Interest of the workingmen. John Lolly said he had lived in Minne apolis twenty-seven years and did not know of twenty T seven Democrats who' would de sert the Democratic cause. This talk about the Irish deserting the Democratic cause in the moment of victory is all bosh. Irishmen are made of different stuff. He had never failed to vote the Democratic ticket but twice and on both occasions had got "left." so badly that lie never wanted do so again. Show speeches were also made by Aid. Holscber, Louis Froderickson, A. B. Mitchell and others. * A. resolution of thanks was also "passed thanking Mr. Martin for tendering the free ; use of bis hall '"for the good of the cause" during the campaign. THE FIRST WARD SPEAKS. The Democrats Elect Their. Alder man by an Overwhelming 1 ; Majority. It was a ' Question Whether People Should Enjoy Personal Liberty or Not. Citizens on the west side scarcely knew that a hot election was being held in the First ward yesterday. It was special election ■ to place in the council chamber a successor to Alderman Glenn. The Democratic nom inee was Titus Marcck, and the Republican Dr. C. E. Rodgers. The former had a walk over. In fact the jovial doctor says that he. scarcely knew thai he was before the people for an office at all, so one-sided was the. affair. The Germans were aroused. Their mass meetings developed their latent strength, and they were determined to show the narrow guage administration that they were determined to secure the right to exer cise their personal liberty, and how well they succeeded the following tabulated state ment of the vote will fully illustrate: Hareck, llojger*.

A Bird With Peculiar Methods— • . Something 1 ot the ; Modus Operandi. The Inadvertent £xpressman— How the Voaplc Caught On and Note Wear New Clothes. The new method of closing out a large clothing business, as adopted by the Ameri can Eagle house, was a theme of popular talk on the streets yesterday. The affair was con ducted with a rush, and consequently, In a measure, it lacked system. It was decid edly promiscuous affair. All the delivery wagons of the American Express company were brought Into requisition, and every man who made his appearance at the store was set to work in handling goods. The motto was. "Everything goes that is not nailsd down,'' and everybody took full advantage of it, and thousand* of dollars worth :of goods went out of the store which will never reach the houses of the few Chicago creditors who concocted and executed the scheme to capture the stock. People deliberately walked into the store and donned overcoats, hats, etc., and then stuffed their pockets with silk hauder chiefs. kid gloves and fine furnishing goods. J In going to his home a gentleman discov ered one of the express wagons unloading a load of clothing behind a wood pile in the suburbs, and a story is rife that another was run Into a dark alley ami the load dropped where . . friends . could care for it. . Annfull6 — wore taken directly from the 6tore to : adjoining buildings and stored by individpal speculators. The writer Is told that one of the express drivers forgot where the cars, were into which the stuff was being thrown, and in a peculiar fit of inadvertency drove the load to his home. The hackdrivers did not get left. A gentleman who felt interested in behalf of some of the unlucky creditors, jumped upon one of the wagons as it started for the train in his endeavor to ascertain if possible where the goods were being shipped to, and at frequent intervals on the road he heard the dull sound of a pile of cloth ing or a box of furnishing good* as they were thrown to the ground by the eager helpers. . As a, matter of course, these parcols were. picked up and cared for by friends of the "beloer." It is only justice to the parties who "helped themselves" to say that the goods were taken with the knowledge of Newman, the Chicago attorney. Hoppenbeim, one of the creditors who made the peculiar seizure, M. Goldberg, the recent manager. of the American Eagla, and others connected. . Mr. Rogers, the St. Paul attorney, also- wore an elegant new overcoat, which was handed him by the ac commodating- Hebrews. A Mr. McMecbaels was on the scene yes terday morning, and represented that he was the agent of a New York firm who held an $3,000 claim against the firm. He is not backward in saying that the whole was a sharp game to beat creditors other than those in the scheme. Others will soon be heard from. ' An attorney stated to the reporter that the police could have stopped the work by ar resting all engaged in moving goods ' under the statute forbidding Sunday work, but no one thought of that. - ■ i Resignation of Commissioner Dudley*.

Ensign Capehart, f of Fargo, who wns at tacked with yellow V er at Key West, has so far recovered as to visit his friends here, and is expected this w ;ek. The Democra c convention in Foster county elected C *,1. a. G. Covell to the Sioux Falls conventic ,o, an a adopted the Carring ton Sem as it i organ. There was an exciting fox chase in Dickey county rece tly and five silver greys were killed and & tt fortunate captors claim that the skins (rill bring $300. It is n' >vr discovered that the treasurer of Barnes < ,»unty, who defaulted for $24,000, also po- Acted $1,885.20 of railroad taxes and forgot to make any entry of it. It i stated that S2S, 000 were paid out to harv est hands in Casselton the past week. 1° ' jome cases farmers borrowed money to P a / them rather than sell wheat. The delegates from Fargo to Pierre made a 1 fmg week of it, leaving Sunday night and returning Sunday morning, just in time to fill their wonted places in the synagogues. In Edmunds county it is reported very difficult to find a man who is not a candidate for some office. Unfortunately for them there are not enough positions to go around. The F»arri6burg Sentinel in Nelson, one of 'the newest counties of the extreme north, says th it a half dozen farmers of that vi cinity aave threshed over 50,000 bushels of .wheat. . The business men and bankers at Grand Forks propose to carry the farmers over the low wlieat point. The Herald says : It is be lieved that the present low prices cannot be maintained long by the Minnepolis ring. Some sparks from a Fargo Southern en , gine at Wuhpeton burned a basket of clothes, comprising all that Fred Stauff did not have on. The company at once sent him $44, and be now has the name Fargo Southern lettered oj i Lit collars and all white apparel. Jocob Bemfeind, in La Moure county, started out for a few hours' hunt on Sunday, "but as he did not return his neighbors five days after found his body. He bad held the wrong end of the gun toward him and made his wife a widow with three children. W. H. Pierce, a dashing and champion bicycle rider at Wahpeton, was recklessly run into by a lamp post and had an arm broken. Some of bis friends were disap pointed that their predictions that he would break his neck did not receive sad confirma tion. The Port Emma Times, in Dickey county, •say*: The planting and cultivation of sun flowers is destined to become an extensive feature of Dakota farming and a most val uable one. The seed is splendid food for bones, while the stalk, which rows to .an enormous size, is excellent fuel. I*. S. Oampine, the stately and genial cashier In the land office, has recently mar ried. Miss Emogene Dcinerest, at Chester, New York, a former visitor in the city, whose ban«l was sought by a number of the most desirable young men. She will be a valuable accession to the social life of Fargo. G co. Hawks, the western passenger agent at Wapheton, with Conductor Fox and an as- ant, spent one day with guns in Sargent county, and slaughtered nearly a car load of game." They brought in 103 ducks and a I* lican that measured eight feet in width. TJjey are the champions of tills section. J The Grafton Times says of the yield in Walsh county: The average yield is likely to be over twenty bushels. Some pieces have turned out thirty-five and forty bushels, but poor cultivation will reduce the average, poor fall plowing being the chief evil. The price is very lw. and but a small quantity has been marketed. J. W. Bu3h, the mail carrier in Sargeant county, mentions that one farmer on his route has recently bad to shoot thirteen horse teams, some of them fine animals, as they were afflicted with glanders. He bought nine new teams and now expect* to have to shoot them. He is wealthy but would like to know where th* thing is to end. Parties Tecently visited Walsh county from Manitoba-, and excited interest and dissatis faction by the statement that wheat buyers at Bra*don and other points were paying 8-Vf»ir-fiT»_- to eighty cents for wheat, while it was bekrjr sixty in Dakota. No satisfac tory explar ation is riven of the difference, although the Canadian Pacific is said to be ■tare liberal in rates than the Dakota roads. Tee Elgin Sun gives this a* a sample of the Dakota calico: A young lady drove from Forest River to the Little Pembin* on horseback, carrying twine enough to bind a small harvest at the latter place. The first tiay she rode fifly miles, reaching Elgin about dark. She remained over night 'and pro ceeded on the remaining twenty miles with renewed vlu"..-r. This is another example of the pluck an i energy of oar Dakota girls. A meeting was called in one of, the even ing papers for Saturday night to ratify the nomination at Pierre. It was not generally known and the attendance was very small. No speeches were* made, and a resolution of endorsement wo.* informally passed. It was regarded a* premature here at Raymond's : house where the sorenes3 was fresh and raw. ; The Republican, if said to have refused to pub 1 lisb the call and Is positively miserable in mind. It Intimates that it win bolt if any body will go with it. Still it will fall in. Postmaster Truer is already throwing up bis ! hat for GiCorti. ' There is ranch dissatisfaction at James town over the frict that the Northern Pacific on its branch at La Moure, which comes in ■ competition with Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, at EUenrtale, gives rates on wheat that enable buyers to pay five cent* more than - at Jamestown. The Capital «ays : The matter j Is working to the detriment of Jamestown in more ways than one. Not only is this city deprived of all the additional wealth that •would be brought here by an extra five or six j cents per bnsbeL,, bat the better prices paid In La Moore is materially influencing our j trade. Farmers living in the southern ' part of Stutsman county are hauling their; grain to La Moure for the better price paid there. They will of course buy goods where they sell their produce, and this city will lose their trade. :..; The La Moure Progress gathers this . from M. S. French, a farmer in that section: Mr. F. said he had some Holstein cattle that were brought from' lllinois, and that in the James Valley they actually gave more milk than when they were in Illinois, and that the milk Is rich in butter producing qualities. Mr. French is thoroughly convinced, after three years practical experience that Dakota is a superior stock country, and that as a dairy country it cannot be excelled. Items like this in the Campbell Courier are not uncommon in Dakota at present: Mr. Shcpard, the cattle man, who lives about twelve miles southeast of La Grace, had about one hundred tons of hay, besides his stables and three seta of harness, destroyed by a prairie fire last Thursday. The fire is said to have been started by sparks from the fire of a party of land seekers who were camped near his place, and, as the wind was blowing a gale, it was impossible to get it under control. A few days ago Aid. Kissner, one of the old pioneers and a famous shot, killed a peli can of enormous size, the largest of which there is record here, and will have it mounted and presented to Gov. Cleveland. Mr. K. is an ardent Democrat, but holds two or three offices to which he was elected by the Republicans. He is not a bit proud and al ways willing for the Republicans to elect him. He has no doubt of the election of Cleveland, and will not reluse to act as mar shal for Dakota. , > A " large excursion party from Helena, comprising representatives of all the news papers and scientists, have gone on a voy age down the Missouri river to Fort Beuton. It is said the scenery is the grandest on any river in . the world. E. A. Smally, of the Northwest, and several artists were of the company. They went prepared for a rough time, and expect to be about- five days in reaching Fort Benton, the head of naviga tion. Their adventures and heroic exploits will be written up and illustrated in thrilling style. The Grafton Herald says: J. J. Hill and A. Man accompanied by a party of friends were on a chicken hunt last week between Grafton and Park River. They expressed themselves as highly pleased with the aspect of the country, the amount of laud under cultivation, the yield and the outlook gener ally. Let them help this section to be what she should be and they will learn this is the goose that lays the golden egg for the Mani toba road. Our people have energy, pluck and courage; all we want is a fair shake at the dice box of life. ? The editor of the Jamestown Capital is the envy of all north Dakota editors on account of physical and mental pulchritude, and to his attainments adds a remarkable zest as a naturalist. In a recent article upon birds he gives this interesting and romantic fea ture of the social life of the prairie chicken, which probably only applies to the Dakota species:' At the time of mating or love making they select a quiet spot in the prairie, which the hunter calls the "chickens' stamping ground." They tramp the grass down with their wings and feet for a space of about twenty feet, and then morning and evening assemble and have a genuine old fashioned minuet. They advance by twos and fours, forward four, aud rustling their feathers, sail around each other on one foot, and cluck as if in the greatest joy. Social circles at Huron are greatly exer cised over what is supposed to be a remark able phenominon in magnetism, psychology or something of the sort. The modus oper and! is this. A company of ladies and gentlemen form a circle and join hands. One' of the party is sent entirely away from the room or even house. On his absence each member of the company is given some word or sentence and the mind is fixed upon it. The guesser then comes in and joins hands in the circle. In a moment the word or sentence will come to his mind. It is said that very unusual words or sentences have been given, and in no instance has there been a failure to give the assigned word or phrase correctly. It makes a very novel and interesting amusement for social gatherings as well as study for the philoso pher. Washington Items. Washington, Sept. 23. The department of state has received from the United States consul at Naples the following telegram rela tive to the cholera at that place: Sept. 22. — The condition of affairs is more encouraging; there are fewer cases and deaths. Cases thirty, deaths ninety, in the past twenty-four hours. The commission appointed for examina tion of the San Francisco postoflice recom mend a number of changes in grading the employes and internal arrangements of the office, the adoption of which will involve an Increase of $8,400 in the annual allowance for that office. The report is complimentary to the postmaster and commends his man agement of the office. Superintendent Thomson, of the railway mail bureau, has returned after a visit of in spection to the railway mail routes west of Omaha. He traveled over the Union, Cen tral and Northern Pacific railroads, and made many suggestions looking to the improve ment of the mail service, which wire as a rule immediately put in practice by the of ficials. The term of C. E. Coon, as acting secre tary of the treasury, under special designa tion of the president, will expire Wednesday. No warrants for payment of money from the treasury can be issued after that day unless the existing vacancy in the office of secretary shall have been filled before that date. It is expected, however, an appointment will be made to-morrow or next. day. The friends of Mr. Coon are still sanguine he will receive the appointment. The acting secretary of the treasury di retted the collector of customs at New York to admit free of duty the Ascot cup, won by Keene's Foxhall, which has been in custody of the collector for nearly two years. The issue of standard silver dollar* for the week ended September 20, was 8442,995; corresponding period last year, §558,499. ZWIt is a Well Known- Fact!

Wells, Richard son A; Co., Burlington, Vt. Positively Refused. New Orleans, Sept. 22. —To-day United \ States chief supervisor of elections, Geo. L. Norton made a demand upon the state regis trar of vote* for a scrutiny of the registra tion thus far made. He was peremptorily refused. Legal steps will be taken by Norton to enforce his alleged right to scrutinize the ration when members of congress are to be ballot* d for. The supervisors acting under orders of the chief of supervisors, made a request for an entry into the state registrar's office to make lists of the registra] tion. The request was positively denied.
