Republicans ard one Democrat are elected

Freeborn county. Enclosed, please find

Candidates in this district. Goodhue and
Freedom counties are official, Dodge give

The Election in Southern Minnesota.

The Election in Southern Minnesota.
We have before US the Owatonna Watch
man, Of the 4th, with news of Steele, Was
eca and Mower counties, the account of
which we extract from that paper. 1t says
tie election passed off quietly on Monday
and in this region without calling out half
of the vote. The entire vote of Steele coun-
ty will not much exceed 3OO-while the
number should have been much larger. Out
OF this vote, however, the Republican major
ity will be over $50 SO that we are COM
pensated for the light vote by its quality,
with which we are wholly satisfied. Border
Ruftian Democracy had better m CRATE to
some more congenial region-say Southern
Illinois, as Minnesota is manifeslly not suited
to its development and growth.
From Waseca county, we learn from a
friend, Democrat himself, that the Repub-
licans have majority of $50 or upwards
The vote in that county was large-about
1OO-being called out by the contest for the
countyseat. If this statement is correct
and we think it is, the Republicans will 60
out of these counties with 600 majority.
The Republicans have undoubtedly elected
their candidates from this Representative
District by GOO or 800 majority, and also
their candidates at large by handsome ma
jority.
The Farbault Herald gives the following
result in Rice county: The returns come
in slowly. The abstract is not yet made
out. We give below list of the maiorities
in each precinct.

The Upper Observation-Disclosures
Prospects.

The Upper MissiSSipph ---LHmbcrfng
Prospects.
Our up river exchanges say that the
Mississippi above the Falls is now in an ex-
cellent stage of water, and has been so all
this season. The June rains having begun
to fall, it will probably continue so until the
numbering season is over. This is of great
Importance to that part of our country in
more than one sense. 1t affords facility for
travelling and settling up that district. But
to the immense numbering interest of the
UPPER Mississippi especially it is of the great
est Importance, and thus to the entire coun-
try, whose prosperity is SO intimately con-
nected with successful numbering season.
A good stage of water affords facilities for
floating to market all the logs which were
cut last winter. The mills can then obtain
full supply. Business will become brisk,
money more plenty, and every settlement
and town receive an impulse ahead. What
the amount Of lumber which will this year
be fioated down from above will be, we have
heard ~ariously estimated But certainly
be it large or small, an important feature in
the case is the fact that it can all be got to
market with but little difficulty. This is
certainly gratifying.

Climate of Minnesota.

The editor of the Sank Rapids Frontier
man takes right view of our country and
its climate. Read this:
If any prefer southern climate with it's
agues, fevers, and other diseases innumera-
BILE, to a cool, bracing air. healthy climate
where there are very few prevailing disc ses;
a soil fertile enough to produce to the Guilt
vator a rich harvest, and where the products
CT farm bring the very highest pr'ce ;
where there is energy, enterprise and thrift
visible on every side; where the mind is as
free and unit amelled as is the body on our
rich pralries; where every man feels that he
is acting for himself; where new sources of
enterprise are daily springing up to awaken
a spirit of energy in the minds of those who
never before thought it possible to I've,
away from their fathers roof; we would sas
to them, do not come to Minnesota. Its
beautiful prairies and Lakes, its fertile soil,
its extensive forests, its valuable pine TIM
Der, its magnificent riyers. its extensive wa
ter powers, its healthy climate and the en-
ergvand enterprise of its inhabitants, will
have no attractoins for you; you had better
stay away.

A Daily Mail to Sank Rapids.

Our friends of the Front,erman COMPLAIN
that although there is daily stage line to
Sank Rapids, they only get semi-weekly
mail, and are thus deprived of getting the St.
Paul dailies for two or three days after they
are published, and then in punches of three
at once. This is wrong. There should be
daily mail running from st. Paul to Anoka,
Monticello, Sank Rapids, &C., and starting
at such time from here as to allow our city
daies to be received all along that route on
the same day. Agtate the subject, cotem
poraries of the St. Paul and up river press
and let US by all means have daily mail to
Sank Rapids and intermediate points.

Our friends at Mankato have at last pa
per published at their enterprising young
city, and from its sprightly and vigorous
appearance, they have every reason to con-
graduate themselves about it, too. 1t is
published by Messrs. Hensley and Cunning,
and is independent on all subjects, and gives
promise of becoming as good journal as
there is in Southern Minnesota. This is
what Mankato has long needed, and they
ought to support it literally.

The Result.

We think the returns are in sufficiently
enough to show that the Convention will be
decidedly Republican. In the following Ia
Bile We have given the Democrats members
from the Sth district on the strength of a
late rumor that Houston county has elected
. Democrats, though this is opposed to all
previously received information. The Off
cial returns may vary it little, but the Re-
publicans are as likely to be beni6tted by it
IS the Democrats.
Ofthose set down in the doubtful column
we think we are as likely to get as many as
the Democrats.
1t is proper to remark that the seats of
four Republicans from the St. Anthony dis
trict and one Democrat from the Oak ia dis
trict will be contested in the Convention.

Ollllsted County.

The Oronoco Courier says: The Republican
ticket in Olmsted County has been elected
by about hundred and twenty-five MAORI
t.y There was not more than wo-thirds OF
the votes Of the county cast. People will
not, and for one we can't blame thcm-leave
their planting and sowing to spend day at
an election. At the next fall election We
shall have, probably, instead of eleven hun
dred votes cast, not less than two thousand.
Then, without doubt, the majority on the
right side will be larger, proportionably,
than that at the recent election.

come to the same conclusion.

A Lie Out!

The Minnesota (St Peter) Free Press in
Speaking of the structures of the Pioneer on
the recent summerset of Ex-Governor Cor
man, says:
If the statements of the Pioneer true, he is GER
tainy one of the greatest scoundres in
if true then he ought IN justice TO hhsei ana his
friends, TO let the community know It,
The Free Press then copies the Pioneers
report of rec mt speech in which German
defined himself as having been opposed to
the removal Of the Capital, and comments
as follows:
We do not believe that Gov. German stated any such
thing 1t well known that he in favor of the
moyal-that he believed and knew the law to be valid
that he obtained the opinion of Reverdy johnson,
fully sustaining the legality of the BILL in all its particu
lars-tha he operated for the bill and with its friends
all through. These things, say, are well known and
therefore say do believe that he has made any
such statements the Pioneer alleges. If he has, he
certainly has proved himself, either then or now,
most consummate hypocrite and scoundrel II, on the
other nd,-and which we suspect is the act,-he did
make the statements charged, then is the Pioneer
that is acting the scoundre. 1t lies between the two,
and we should like to know which it is.
This is question in which Southern Minnesota, and
we in particular, feel interest; we have right
know who friends. and who are enemies, in this
matter. II Governor German, or any other person
who acted with in this affair, is not friend is
playing false in this matter, have right to know
it, and insist upon the proof Come gentlemen, show
us your hands No lodging in this matter,-you must
be e Their :. flesh fish"-for us, against Again,
we call upon Governor German to come out and show
where he stands. Let him either clear himself of
these charges stand before the community misera
be trucking hypocrite One the other he must TO-
We can assure our contemporary that al
though the Pioneer does not always give the
most fair construction of the position of its
adversaries, in this instance,it has not misrep-
resented the Governor in the least. He sta
ted in his speeches and on the streets in the
Learing Of hundreds all that the Pho
neer represents, and not only that, but that
he was also in favor of the Congressional d.
vision of the Territory. He did not know,
he said, why they should think he would be
in favor of St. Peter fer the Capital of the
future State as against St. Paul, for he owned
and paid taxes on ten times the amount of
property in the latter place that he did in
the former We have not the least doubt
;ut that he has heretofore been understood
as the Free Press represents, and which
party he will deceive time only will show
If however it is the people Of St. Paul, they
will have no just cause of complaint, for
knowing his past course they have volunta-
rily taken him into their confidence.
