"Thirjrs have already so shaped
themselves that there is no longer any
doubt l>ut that the pre-convention fight
In the Republican party in this county
is going to be the bitterest in the his
tory of the party," said a Republican
politician who knows what he is talk
ing about yesterday. "It is going to
be Kiefer and antl-Kiefer to a finish.
The mayor proposes to have control of
tfcf machine of the party and have his
own men in the county offices so far
c* poeeible. It is the county machine
that counts, and he does not propose
that the offices in the court house shall
be filled by men who will be likely to
oppose his congressional aspirations.
He- Is aware of the fact that he will
have to do hU fighting now and the
campaign is practically framed up.
His dose friends have been gathering
about certain candidates within a
couple of days in such a manner that
there is no doubt of what he intends.
It was Kiefer that settled the deter
mination of Billy Johnson to make the
run for auditor instead of sheriff.
Jotaeon has been framing up the
shrievalty nomination for some time,
but was hauled off at the finish and
given the proper start for the other
nomination by Kiefer's direction.
George Gerlich and Henry Tost and
the Kiefcr people generally were in
the movement to give Johnson the sup
pi rt of the Eighth. Of couFse all know
that the meeting of Monday night re
sulting in the Indorsement of Billy
may mean nothing at all, but It shows
tho front of the campaign. Johnson
and Bill Ames are playing together,
am 1 , the mayor is behind it all. If he
could get Ames into the sheriff's office,
the control of the county would be
practically assured to Kiefer. The alli
ance is a menace to a good many of
the other candidates, and they will not
wait to be forced into a fight. They'll
go looking for it. There is the Fourth
•ward. Do you suppose that Schiff
ir.ann and Donahower and that crowd
v.-ill fcit down and let Kiefer do any
business in that ward? Not in a cen
tury. They'll s>imply drop their ward
row and line up with the proposition
that Kiefer has got to be suppressed

as fate they'll beat Johnson and Ames
if they go along in the present com
bination to the extent of making a j
fight in convention. A deal between
the Fourth ward organization and the
Seventh is easily within reach, and j
they might easily be assured of the
tupport of the Second. Fitzgerald can
depend on the support of his own ward, |
and when the Seventh, Fourth and Sec- i
or.d get into line against the Kiefer
push there will be the finest row this
town hats seen in local politics since |
Willie Eagan's dog choked eating the i
records of Mr. Fortune's club."
• * *
There "s much truth in what the pol- (
ltician said. The fight that has started j
since Johnson took snap judgment in j
the Eighth and Wickwire was taken
up by the Fourth Is getting really
good. The nomination for auditor is
clearly between Fitzgerald and John
son. The other candidates are merely
possibilities, and there Is no doubt
that the Kiefer support is with Johnson
to som-e extent. The anti-Kiefer ele
ment is lining up behind Fitzgerald,
and he was handed the support of the
Fourth without an effort. The two
factions are abusing each other as
fiercely as though the convention was
three days off.
There will be a meeting 1 of Sixth
yard Democrats at Justice Smith's
court room, on South Robert street,
this Thursday evening, Aug. 25. All
Democrats are invited to be present.
GIVEN A WARM WELCOME.
St. Michael's Glad to Have Rev. Fath
er O'Neill Home Again.
Several hundred parishioners of St.
Michael's parish, West St. Paul, as
eernibled in the open air around the
church on Colorado street last night
and welcomed Rev. Patrick O'Neill, who
has just returned from a three months'
trip through Ireland.
The grounds were hung with Vene
tian lanterns and an elevated platform
was situated at the head of the
grounds over which was painted in
large letters "Welcome Home." Father
O'Neill occupied a seat on the plat
form with Father Eilig and William
Kelly, a prominent parishioner, all ef
whom made short talks.
Those present gave practical evidence
of their regard 'in i-ather O'Neill by
coming f« T.ard at the conclusion of
the.e-.ercises and greeting him person
ally. Several hundred were present.
Mr. Kelly welcomed Father O'Neill
back to the parish and complimented
Father Ellig for the earnest manner
in which he had conducted the affairs
of the parish during Father O'Neill's
absence. Father O'Neill made a short
address, saying that his visit to Ire
land had been one of pleasure and in
struction. He had been asked fre
quently about the war, and despite re
ports, the sentiment of the Irish peo
ple to a man favored the success of
the American forces, whether on 'and
or sea, and no little interest had been
shown by the Irish people in the out
come of the conflict.
The crops had been, fine during the
last year, and the proverbial potato
crop was still at the front as the fore
most agricultural production of the Em
erald Isle. "Ireland was," he said "the
most contented and happy little spot
on the face of the earth," and taken
in all, conditions in Ireland were much
improved, and its people were all
happy.
Father Ellig followed with a few re
marks in which he stated that the suc
cess of the parish during the absence
of Father O'Neill had been due largely
to the consecrated efforts of the parish
ioners themselves. He thanked them
for the complimentary mention which
had been made of his work among
them and assured the audience that
he would ever stand ready to assist
Father O'Neill in carrying on the work
of the parish.
The Morgan orchestra furnished
music during the evening, and
Mesdames Loftus and Meyers gave
vocal solos. Among those present were
John Nagle, Thomas, Hoban. John
Clancy, James King, James Slayben,
John McGrath, Thomas Nagle, Mr. and
Mrs. John Griffin, Mr. and Mrs. James
Pendergast.
VISIT FROM GEN. WADE.
Runs Up to St. I'iiul to Spend a Few
Hoars.
Maj. Gen. James F. Wade returned
to St. Paul yesterday. He will soon
go to Havana, where he will assist
Gen. Blanco get rid of Spanish troops
in Cuba,
"I have just come from Washing
ton," said Gen. Wade to a reporter for
The Globe. "I have been in good
health since I left for the front, but
this is the first day I have experienced
cool weather since I reached Cincin
nati on my way to Tampa.
"I cannot account for the great
amount of sickness at Chickamauga.
except on the theory that the men
there have undergone an entire change
of their mode of living, and it has af
fected them. I do not know when th 9
men will be mustered out nor what
regiments will be sent home, but I
think we shall require 50,000 men for
garrison duty in Cuba."
At the same time, Gen. Wade said,
the nation could not use the large army
now in service, and many undoubtedly
would be mustered out He could not
say anything about the fate of the
Twelfth and Fourteenth regiments.
They are not in his brigade, and he
only knew of them from what he
read and heard.
Gen. Wade will return to Washing
ton today to receive instructions as to
the course of action to be pursued in
dealing with the Spaniards when ar
ranging for the evacuation of Havana,
The commission, is to meet there Sept.
12. He will be accompanied by his
son, Lieut. John Wadg, of the Fifth
cavalry. As general Wade is the senior
member of the Cuban commission, he
may be chosen chairman of it.
Gen. Wade said all the members of
his staff are in good health. He has
not been ill a day since he left for the
front, but he is considerably brown'e"s
"by the Southern sun. He expressed
deep regret that Col. Page, of the
Third regiment, was sick with malaria.
Gen. Wade said It was impossible for
him to say whether the Third would be
sent back to Fort Snelling.

Aboat.
Senator Marcus A. Hanna, of Ohio,
arrived in this city last evening on the
Northern Pacific from the Yellowstone
park. He is accompanied by his daugh
ter, Miss Ruth Hanna, and the Misses
Phelps and McCurdy. The party is
stopping at the Aberdeen.
"We have had a most delightful trip,"
said Senator Hanna to a reporter for
The Globe. "We went from Cleve
land to Duluth by boat and then to
the park. Politics? I don't want to
say much about politics."
"What is this government going to
do with the Philippines?"
"That is hard to say," replied the
senator. "The Philippines' future is a
problem we cannot solve in a hurry.
We, of course, must retain a coaling
station there, but I do not think it like
ly we shall want more than Manila and
its harbor. There are docks and yards
there for warships and ample facil
ities for keeping our vessels in repair.
I doubt whether we shall require more
than that in the Philippines. We do
not know whether it is desirable to
have the" Philippines. We know noth
ing about the people there or the
country. Very little is known about
those islands-. I had an interview in
Washington with a gentleman who
came from there recently after spend
ing three years in the archipelago, and
he told me that only the fringe of the
island of Luzon had been explored.
There are native tribes that never have
been subject to Spanish rule, and what
we are going to do with these people
is one of the things to consider before
we talk of annexing them to the Unit
ed States. That mineral wealth is to
be found in the islands is quite cer
tain, but to what extent the islands
may be developed is another matter.
"Porto Rico is ours by the terms of
the protocol, and we shall take posses
sion of the island without delay. It is
an important outpost and belongs to us
naturally.
"Cuba is another problem. I never
was much of a Cuban and am not pre
pared to commit myself as to the pol
icy we should pursue there. We pro
pose to establish a stable government
in that island, but what constitutes a
stable government has not yet been
defined. I think, however, Cuba will
be an evolution, and In about twenty
years it will be so thoroughly Amer
icanized that there will be no question
as to what a stable government there
means.
"I do not think there will be a for
mal alliance with England. Whenever
the commercial interests of the two
nations are identical I believe they
will support each other, morally, if not
physically, but beyond that I do not
believe an alliance will exi&t. The flag
of commerce will prevail more gen
erally than heretofore, and I think the
war will result in a wonderful devel
opment of our merchant marine. That
I think essential to the commercial su
premacy of this country.
"This country is now entering upon
a period of industrial and commercial
prosperity such as it never has known.
The war has put $300,000,000 in circula
tion, and business in every quarter has
been stimulated. There was at first a
depression in trade, but the country is
recovering from that and is forging
to the front. Everywhere the s.tory
is the same. The railroads have more
business in sight than ever before, and
the next five years will be years of
unexcelled prosper tiy.
"It is too early to speak of presiden
tial prospects, but I believe President
McKinley will be the next Republican
nominee. He will not be a candidate
for the office, but the people will call
him and will re-elect him. His course
during this war has been admirable,
and I expect when the time comes even
the St. Paul Globe will support him."
WORST OF IT IS OVER.
Red Cross Workers Feel Much En
couraged as to the Prospect.
A contribution of $5, -which came all
the way from England, was received
at the Red Cross society yesterday. It
was from Mrs. Henry Nlcols, of this
city, who is now traveling in Europe,
and was enclosed in a letter to Mra.
D. A. Monfort. Mrs, Nicols says she
has watched the progress of the Red
Cross work, and is glaa of the good
being done; she is often with the work
ers in thought. While the English pa
pers give a great deal of news con
cerning the war, papers from home are
always welcome.
A letter was also received from the
Red Cross society of California, in
forming the local society that supplies
forwarded by them would be gratefully
received. There is much serious sick
ness among the troops now stationed
at San Francisco; the regimental hos
pitals are overcrowded — and many
patients, on this account, must be dis
charged before they are entirely well.
The Red Cross society, seeking to
remedy this, has built a "convalescentß'
home," where all uniformed patients
will be received and cared for. It is
built on a sheltered spot on the
presidio. The California Red Cross so
ciety has as well a field hospital at
Manila with a corps of trained nurses,
and an equipment of 125 beds. They
are also supplying the government hos
pital ship, sent to Manila, with delica
cies, medicines, etc. With so many
projects on hand, assistance from ev
ery quarter is needed.
The letter was in answer to one writ
ten by Mrs. Park Ritchie, proffering
the assistance of the local society.
In resiponse to this request, a box
will be immediately prepared for ship
ping. To make the necessary articles,
more help is needed in the sewing
rooms, and friends of the boys at Ma
nila are asked to come In and lend
their assistance.
Mrs. Thomas Cochran had charge of
the sewing at the local headquarters
yesterday. She was assisted by Gen.
Si'bley Circle No. 6, G. A. R.
The following ladies were there:
Mesdames Fry, Lewark, E. T. Jones,
Freeman, St. Clalr, Floy, Hinton,
M-athews, Johnson, Smith and Misses
L. Anderson and Pattee. At the
desk Mrs. A. P. Moss received the fol
lowing contributions: One bolt of Beer
sucker from Mrs. Codhran and one bolt
of seersucker from Mrs. Park Ritchie.
This will be made into pajamas. Old
muslin was received from Mrs, George
L. Becker. The society sent to St.
Luke's hospital twelve night shirts,
eight dozen hospital napkins and a
quantity of old muslin and lkien.
The Ladles' Aid society sent $10 to
the German-American Red Cross so
ciety yesterday. Mra. Theo. Koch and
Mrs. Constans were in charge of the
sewing. They were assisted by Dia
mond Lodge No. 116, Degree of Honor.
Mrs. Stamm and Mrs. J. W. Edgerton
visited Betheßda hospital yesterday
and found that nurses sufficient to care
for the soldier patients had been en
gaged, and the sick soldiers were beingr
well cared for.
LIKES HIS ATTRACTIONS.
Secretary Randall Visits lirtva and
Sees the Gaideless Pacer*.
Secretary Randall has just returned
from a trip to lowa, made in the in
terest of the coming fair, and he re
ports prospects of a big attendance
fKan law*. The people ot that «Ut«
have heard about the programme,
thanks to the Twin City dailies— on
which the people rely for the latest
news — and they mean to take advan
tage of the low railroad rates and see
what a real live state fair is.
While in lowa, Mr. Randall had an
opportunity to see the five "Guideless
Pacing Wonders" make a race. These
races are a part of the state fair's
daily amusement programme, filling In
the intervals between heats of the trot
ting contest. The "guideless" pacers
do all that Is claimed for them, and the
races are as exacting as they are won
derful. In the race witnessed by Mr.
Randall, they made the race without
a skip. One of them got a'little ahead
of the two which had the pole side
and crowded them into the fence to
get the pole, In true jockey fashion.
In the meantime another one outside
of her had gotten a little ahead and
she made a great spurt of speed to re
gain lost ground.
But the most wonderful part, as
showing the training of the horses and
their intelligence, was the fact that,
after passing under "the wire, without
any word from the trainer, the.y, ajl
turned and came back to the stand
and grouped themselves about the
trainer, who fed each a lu,mp of sugar
and sent them to their grooms. Before
the horses were half way round, ev
erybody on the grand stand was up
and watching the race with intense in
terest. By the time the half-mile po&t
was reached the crowd went wild, and
from that time until the finish the
air was full of hats and handkerchiefs
— a scene of excitement and enthusi
asm seldom seen at a race.
The trainer is no other than Dr.
Oarver, whose marvelous feats of
horsemanship and rifle shooting from
horseback at a gallop furnished very
pleasant entertainment at the state
fair of 18S6.
The "guideless wonders" will be a
popular feature of every afternoon's
entertainment before the grand stand
during fair week.
NOT ON HOMESTEADS.
River Front Improvements Have to
Pay a Realty Tax.
The publication, of the return of taxes
from Ramsey county and the showing
made under item 28 attracted some at
tention from people who interested
themselves. Item 28 covers the assess
ment of persons who own improve
ments on public lands. The item show
ed an assessed valuation of suoh im
provements at upwards of thirty thou
sand dollars. It was clear that there
were no longer homesteads In this
county having any such amount of im
provements. Assessor Seng yesterday
explained the item.
"We make ttae return in that form
for the assessment of people occupy
ing land under federal control, just as
though they were on homesteads.
There are no homesteads, in that sense,
in the county. The assessed persona
are the occupants of the property held
by the government along the water
front. There is quite a good deal of
this ground that has been made by
the lowering of the river. The Pabst
warehouse, the Diamond Jo freight
oheds and other buildings along the
levy are of this clairs, and on the other
side of the river there are some im
portant enterprises located on these
government lands, the Home and
Danz concern, for instance, and the
Gedney Pickling works. The occupants
pay some sort of nominal rental to the
government and we assess them for
their Improvements.
HEDGEE HEDGED IN AGAIN.
"London Sliotvr" Advance Blan Is
Committed to Jail.
Maurice Hedgee was arraigned in
the police court again yesterday charg
ed with obtaining money under false
pretenses. The case was continued un
til this morning and Hedgee commit
ted to jail.
The gentlemen who have been inter
esting themselves in Hedgee's behalf
have weakened somewhat, and yester
day Joseph T. Schusler, who had be
friended the so-called advance agent
for "Bailey's Big London Show," and
endeavored to secure his release, was
willing to sign a complaint against
Hedgee.
Hedgee belongs to the same secret
order Schusler is connected with, and
since his arrest gave Schusler the grand
hailing sign of distress and made a
borrow of $25 in cash.
The police say that Hedgee recently
served a short sentence in the Minne
apolis workhouse for the same kind of
work which he attempted in St. Paul.
AS SO OFT BEFORE.
"Wife Refuses to Prosecute a Hus
band for Assault.
O. S. Schroeder was arraigned in the
police court yesterday morning charg
ed with assault with a dangerous
weapon. Tuesday evening Dr. Arzt
was called to the Schroeder residence
at Florida and Rutland streets to at
tend Mrs. Schroeder.
The woman informed the doctor that
she had been beaten by her husband,
and Dr. Arzt notified the police that
she was severely injured. Schrcreder
was arrested and on the strength of
the statements made by the physician
he was charged with assault.
Mrs. Schroeder, however, surprised
the physician and also the police by
appearing in court and requesting that
her husband be not punished. Judge
Hine let the fellow go after he had
signed a bond to keep the peace.
