RICHNESS !!

| The muttered threateniugs Of the
| Minneapolis Tribune against the Saint
| Paul Press broke forth on Thursday in
fearful revelation of corruption, bril-
berry, and the like. 1t charged that on
the formation Of a company to build
the Northern Pacific Railroad, Mcssrs.
! Driscou and Wheelock, the proprietors
Of the Press, with Chas. Nichols, who
was torepresent the joint stock, demand
ed an interest in the proposed COM
pany; that this was yielded BY Bill
King, who gave them his interest, On
the condition that they should render
certain political services, including the
support 10 good faith Of Mr.. Window
for tho Senate; that when the Con.
struo]ion Company was formed, on a
much larger scale than had been origi.
nally contemplated, Mr.; King allowed
this trio to have the profits on the Goa
ditioa that he should represent his own
interest in the Board Of Directors that
this condition was violated and Mr..
Nichols elected, but that he (N.) was
compelled to resign on Mr.. Kings re.
turn from Washington that the Press
offered to Col. Clark w. Thompson to
support him for The Senate, in opposi-
ton to Mr.. Window, for a considera-
ton, but that the Colonel did not care
to invest; aud finally, that Mr.. King
bought back the interet which he had
given to the Press, paying them there.
for $4,000, on condition that the pa
per should give Mr.. Window its sup
port.
On Friday the 81; Press replied in four
column leader. IN this, the editors
say that Mr.. Driscoll, while in Wash
ington, spoke to Mr.. King concerning
an unassigned share in the proposed
company; that Mr.. King rendered them
his interest, which M. Driscoll "thank.
fully accepted" that after the new Con-
struction Company had been formed,
Mr.. King demanded to represent his
own interest, but declared that Vice.
lock, Driscoll and Nichols should have
the profits; that after Mr.. Nichols had
been elected and forced to resign, be
and his friends were indignant; Mr..
King continued firm. in his determine
ton to represent his own interest,
though he asked no share Of the profits;
the Press men appealed to Mr.. Window
to compel King to yield, but Mr.. W.
declined to interfere; the trio were Gin
a quandary for little while," but fear
ing lest further hostilities might endan-
ger the election of Mr.. Window, sold
the interest back to Col. King s'for
less than one-third of its estimated
value"
This is the whole matter in brief
As an outside party, occupying posi-
ton quite as disiuterestcd as that Of the
woman in the fight between the bear
aud her husband, we must say that we

Editor JonRNAL MI. p. B.. Nc
Cord, our verysef6 oient County Super.
intendent Of Schools, has visited our
schools the past week, and giveait as
bis opinion that tho one in charge Of
Mr.. Bickford is superior to any in
the County save one, viz the "Chase"
school at Montjeello. On Saturday, by
Mr.. sMcCord's invitation, the teachers
Of this vicinity and some Of the had
ing citizens, met at the school house
and organized "The Clearwater Teach
ers' Association, "-E. B. McCord Pres
ident, and Il. A. Bickford Secretary :;
meetings to be semi-monthly. Mr..
Bickford was appointed to give instruct
ion at the next meeting lii arithmetic
Mr.. Philips In geography, Mr.. CUT
ting in history, M. Fish in spelling,
and Miss Lawton in reading. The OBJ
ject is, of course, to instruct in the
best method Of imparting instruction
Mr.. McCord's term expires in May, in
consequence of an act of our last Leg
islature oblising County Commissioners
to appoint County Superintendent at
the fist meeting in January, although
he was appointed in January 1870 for
two years. He would probably have
been willing to serve another term, at
the same salary he IS now getting, $500
per year, and as he is an old resident
of the county and has the interests of
education at heart, it seems very singu-
lar that he was not re-appointed. But
the Commissioners in their wisdom
thought proper to throw him over, and
appoint a Mr.. Allen in his stead, at a
salary Of $500 year. MIR. Allen is
quite young, and Is not a resident Of
the county, and cares for her oduca.
tional interests in exact proportion to
the length of his residence nothing.
But what he lacks in efficiency be
makes up in brass, and besides, he pro.
poses to start first.class newspaper at
Delano, in connection with the Super.
intendency; not that he intends tc
neglect the last named business, but
will devote just enough time to the pa
per "to give it Tone" From all &C
counts, it will be zow tone-base ir
general. 1t might be we'll for him tt
cultivate his voice little, and in tim
he might get up to baritone. 1t is ev
dent that somebody has an "ax to grind
with the extra $500 of the county
money. I am happy to say that M,
S. Whiting, Jr., Commissioner frou
this District, had no hand in this one
sided business, as it was finished befor
his arrival at Buffalo. It is also pleas
ant to record the fact, that the Boar'
redl stricted the county, so that we vii
have a chance to get Jive men Cat tn
next election to attend to our count
matters, and it is to be hoped tia
they will profit by the experience q
their predecessors. $50 mote it be.
