was therefore legally entitled to his seat.
Mr.. McCracken entered a protest against Mr..
Ludden taking his seat but as Messrs. Ludden

few days ago, that some Of the "Weston boys had
killed man near Lawrence" This Is certainly
something to boast of the numbering of an inof-

rise young man. Why did he not ennmerate all
the honorable actions of his friends in different
parts OF the Territory He certainly should have
stated that one gentleman, while on his way home,
was met by company Of CLAW and order'' mes,
who arrested him, borrosoing his pistol and pure
containing few dollars, which they forgot to re.
turn when the prisoner was released. Also, that

We consider good roads in Minnesota para
mount to every thing else. Our Territory is
young and growing, and new sections are be-
ing continually settled upon and cultivated
Many Of the settlements are remote from mar
ket, and it is highly necessary that roads should
be laid out in order that the hardy pioneers
can procure the necessariesof life. A journey
through the. Big Woods during the election
campaign, fully convinced US that roads laid
out in proper sections will do more towards set
Ting our territory than any and every thing
else combined. We, in St. Paul, know but lit
tie of the hardships experienced by our neigh
bors, for the want Of good roads. Our Legis-
lature should be extremely liberal on this point,
and aid our Delegate to the utmost Of their
power in urging upon Congress the necessity
Of granting appropriations for these important
thoroughfares. And then, if these roads are
laid out, mails can be transported to various
sections and intelligence disseminated. Were
we in the Legislature and called upon to vote
either for railroad running through our Ter
ritory, roads pointing in various directions, we
should give our preference to the latter, believ-
ing that they would be Of far more utility than
the former. Political differences of opinion
should have no influence in this matter, but ev-
cry Minnesotian should be governed by the
maxim-sThe greatest good to the greatest
number"
