The Wan that Dr. vi ,ssey turns out of
the Fore.t City Land Ohice--lngrati-
rute OF Sihley ana. Goodrich To Me-
Diary!
q no, We begin TO understand it
The Il egister of the Land office at Forest
City. whom Dr. MASSEY, Medarys no-horse
son-in-law. di>placcs is no other than Col.
SMITH. the former Editor of the Free Press
which at enc time hourished-no we can't
say tiourished, but eXisted-here as the pc
culiar organ OF the Democratic or Gormdn
party"
No wonder HENRY NJ. RICE helped him
out and Massey in There was an old
crudg, 70 revenge and though the Ship Of
State Senator has not vet reached that sour
old age which the Pioaeer a>crbes to Be-
CHANAN, he is not tie iess selfish" and - re
yengetul - Besides this, Col SMITH did not
belong TO tie Moccasin crowd. He was not
free of that guild He had never taken the
solemn obligation to aid each other in mutual
Publ Plumber. He was an outsider. whose
record was rather one of warfare against
public bhery, State and National, and
therefore no fit person to hold an Office under
either State or Nation. in the present age OF
Minnesota!
1t the more surprises U.S. therefore, that
the Pioneer should say word adversely to
his removal. He-a man guilty of public
honesiy.-how could he expect or be expect
ed TO remain in public office in these pats!
Our cotemporary, we suspect, had forgotten,
as We had. who the incumbent of the Regis
tershp was when it wrote its article demur-
ring to MAs>EY's appointment; or at any rate
he objected to it, most probably, more on
account of MEDARY apparently controlling
the dSposali' of the federal offices here in
stead IF Roc, CAvENAUGH and PHELPS,
those good Douglas men and friends Of the
Pinetr, who voted for Lecompton and the
English Bill Swindle in Congress- and with
whom nevertheless, the P,oneer, with ali its
seeming ID uglaSsm and their seeming Lee
coAptoni-m has such perfectly friendly I'M
derstanding all the while!
But why should that paper object to Me-
DAIRY eathering his nest, as much as he
wants To!
Why should Goodrich dcnounce MEDARY
through whose moral turpitude his friend
SIrLEY sits in the executive chamber Of the
State?
Cannot the editor of the Pioneer ever keep
faith?
Has lie 10 gratitude?
Was it not In tie Jargdin well understood
by both the Editor and SIBLEY, when the

was it not in the bargain to which they con
sented that SAM. MEDAaY for his dishonor
was to have the full run of the federal kitchen
as his r. ward, and shout not be opposed in
securing any spoils here or elsewhere he de-

See what MEpARY did for the latter in or.
der to declare him elected by 30 majority
At St. VINCENT, Pembjna County, which

there is not a house nor an inhabItant, the

establishment il Dakotah Territory inmedi-
ately across the river canoed over into Min

pollod . votes for SIBLEY, all told.
Yet MEDARY know ngly counted in a forged
return of 20j votes for Mr.. SIBLEY.
AT HOLMES Cry, in the same county

votes as having been polled for him there
and none Tor RAMSEY.
The whole tting-poll books, names of yo-
tiers, names of judges and clerks, and returns
of votes, are q forgay, and MEDARY and
SGBi.EY AMI GooDRlCH knew it !
From precinct called INDEPENDENCE, pur-
porting to be in Cass county, MEDARY count
ed - votes for SIBLEY, when there is no such
place or precinct in the county, and the old
sounded knew, and SIBLEY knows, there is
no such ptace, nor precinct, nor uoters, nor
Jtages, nor cterks, in Cass county nor any
where else in Minnesota
1t simply was one of those breeches pocket
precincts which MEDARy as Governor had
previously secretly created, and for which
the Pioneer Office had furnished the poll
books-all with the deliberate pre-conceiyed
intention OF fraud

DAIRY unled in for our honorable acting
Governor, declaring as he did 80 that he was

And with the afhdavits Of the judges and
clerks Of the election at CEDAR CITY. in

return forgery, he likewise counted in 4s
majority there for SIBLEY, where in fact
RAMSEY absolutely had majority of thir-
