every calling and all shades of politics.
1t was not to be expected that such a
large assemblage, made up of gentle
men who for years differed in their
political views. should be any more
harmonious than was this convention.
There was freedom of expression, a
candor about inquiries. singleness
of purpose which indicated that the
first and only object was to aim so
high that there could be no possibility
of error. A quiet. well-regulated and
rapid convention is generally packed

in the platform are good. and they are

An Omission.

In our enumeration of the possible
candidates in the First District, in our
first issue, we omitted the name of Hon.
NJ. j. Severance Of Mankato, one OF the
ablest and clearest headed men IN the
State. We did so because he had been
more often spoken Of for Chief Justice
than for Congress.
Since the publication of our first
number the name of Judge Waite of
Mankato has also been spoken of as a
candidate for Congress. The Judge
has s'won golden opinions from all sorts
Of men, since he came into Office and
has hosts of friends.
Our programme would be for all the
counties in the several Congressional
districts to select their very best, ablest
and most reliable men as delegates; and
then when the conventions meet have a
thorough discussion, in a kindly and
friendly manner, without heat or pas
sion or partisanship, of all the gentle
men named, and select the perry best
man. This done success is certain :
and, with success, there will be chance
for the friends of all the candidates.
sooner or later. to see their wishes real

To the Editor of the Anti Monopolist
For millions of years fire and water
have ragged eternal warfare upon the
globe for the mastery. Water has
gained the victory. Liberty and
slavery have ever been at war all over
the world and ever will be until liberty
shall conquer. And now justice and
injustice are to try their strength in
this country. The people, long-suffer-
ing, believe that the limit Of indirect
taxation has been reached and now de-
mand that wealth shall share its pro-
portion of the burdens of the Govern
ment. When taxation is based upon
wealth internal taxation can be abol-
ished and all restrictions upon COM
MERGE be removed except sufficient to
protect labor. The Government could
then free itself from the most fatal
errors that any people ever committed,
of taxing the vices Of its people to OBJ.
tain revenue. The rich as well as the
Door would then be interested in econ.
omy and honesty; the States could then
control the temperance question and
prosperity would take the place Of
wretched poverty. Such would be the
blessings which would flow from justice
in the taxation Of free people.

Supreme Court Decision.

April term, lS74EKneelon B. Braley
appellant, VS.. Patrick Byrnes, respond
ent.
Syllabus-Tn replevin by mortgage
of personal property against sheriff,
attaching it as the property of the
mortgager, where the defense is that
the mortgage was fraudulent as against
the mortgager's creditors, the sheriff
must prove the existence of the debt
on which the attachment issued.
This proof may be made by any evil
dence that would establish the debt in
an action against the mortgager; but
the summons and complaint in the at
tachment suit, the writ of attachment,
and the affidavit, &C., on which the writ
issued, are not competent evidence for
this purpose.
A mortgage may be fraudulent as
against creditors, although found on a
valuable consideration.

How Dunneu was Nominated.

The St. Paul Press shortly before the
convention met which nominated Dun
nell, published the following dispatches ::
FILLMORE COUNTY.
Editor St Paul Press:
PRESTON, July 1.-THE convention held
here to-day elected six Dunnell delegates
and two independent. Less than halt the
county ,cas represented.
HOUSTON COUNTY.
Editor St. Paul Press
CALEDONIA, July 9.--The convention which
met here to-day elected seven delegates,
three of which are for Dunnell and the re-
manning four are not disposed to favor him.
The convention was a farce. Less than
half the to,Dns 1rere represented, and some OF
these picked up on the street by the convention
and invited to seats. No interest is felt, so
far as the nomination is concerned. People
10iH vote as they please.
The Press is notorious liar, but in a
court of justice the admissions even OF
a rogue himself, are held to be good
evidence. 1t is evident that Dunnell
was nominated not by the Republican
party but by ring Of otficeholders.

Thanks.

We have not quoted, as is usual, the
many handsome and kindly notices we
have received from our brethren of the
press. We are obliged to say so much
in self-defense that our modesty forbids
that we should quote the compliments.
But we cannot refrain from thanking
Mr.. Wise, of the Mankato Reuieao, for
a very generous and valuable notice
1t is appreciated. Many thanks also to
our old friend Senator Benedict, of the
Sank Rapids Sentinel, for his kind and
complimentary words. We shall hope
to deserve them. We regret that We
possess so much modesty, for we woule
be glad to quote them.

LAMBERTON, REDWOOD Co., MIMI,
July 18th, 1874. :
It is with good deal Of satisfaction
that we welcome "THE ANTI oSoPo-
LIST" The bold defiance of public
sentiment, and disregard Of the COM
mon good presented by the Republi-
can press, and by men in official place,
calls for such representative Of the
people. If it be sweet to them, let
them continue to indulge in the delu-
sion, that by pointing back and hurrah-
ing over issues settled ten years ago,
they think they can still come off VIC
torious.
While in memory we can behold
some bright pages in the history of the
Republican party, the past few years
have left many large black spots, and
to-day its doom is sealed. The people
from one end of the land to the other
are speaking in thunder-tones for the
milestone to be taken from off their
necks, that unwise and corrupt legisla.
ton has hung there. ''Onward" is
their watch-word from the issues for
ever dead to grander lights future.
'Give us legislation that will make all
classes of corporations, as they should
be, our servants. That will not in.
fringe upon the rights of the manufac
turer and inventor, but yet will protect
our rights and interest" But this
county, as in all others Of the State
we have few small merchants and ma
chine agents who cry ''hold on! Yo,
will injure yourselves. You are travel
ing the wrong road. You are cutting
your own threats. Stick to the ole
Iship if the bottom has fallen out. 70,
are only safe on our road.
Differ with us and you're not our brother;
We have the truth as the Oracles tell
Go with us or you'll go to hell I"
But the reply comes back from tn
ever advancing column, ''That talk i
ausgespielt.
We think the time is now at hant
that the granting of special privileges
bounties, subsidies and protection t.

It is about time that men in publ

INDIAN SCARE IN LINCOLN COUNTY.
The People of Lake Benton Fright
ened by a Report that the Sioux
Were Coming.

Since Sheridan has started a war
with the Sioux, and Custer has march
ed away with the soldiers to whom the
border settlers have heretofore looked
for protection, the settlers are natural
ly enough impressed with feeling of
insecurity, as is evidenced by scare
which occurred in the Lake Benton set
Element of this State. 1t originated,
the Prairie Schooner, of Marshall,
says, with two or three fam
lilies of very credulous Norwegians, who
had, without doubt, been made the VIC
Tins of practical joke. They came
from near Medary, last Saturday, to
Lake Benton with the news that Fort
Wadsworth (sixty miles from Lake
Kampeska) had been captured by the
Indians who had massacred two hum
dred whites; that the red skins were
on their way to Lake Benton, where
they we're expected to arrive the next
night; that the people of Medary,
Flandreau, and elsewhere along the
Sioux river had all left or were leaving,
and that Flandreau was in flames. The
reader can imagine what effect this re-
port would produce among people some
what isolated as are the settlers about
Lake Benton, and particularly among
some who believe all things possible to
the Indian. The news few from house
to house, and straightway there was
some little commotion. Six families,
without further ado hastily packed
a few things and started for Lynd.
Others took little more time to pack
up, and after assembling at Narshfeld,
spending the night awaiting further
news, and holding kind Of council Of
war, dispersed to their several homes
and went to work. Others, still, paid
little attention to the report, farther
than to inquire into the matter, and
made no preparations to leave. But
the report came SO direct, and from
such reliable source, that it was
enough to agitate the minds Of all
John Snyder and Mr.. Taylor took =
rather practical view Of the situation,
and decided to ride out and meet the
invading foe and ask them what they
meant by such behavior. At any rate
they could ride over to Flandreau,
twenty-five miles distant, and view the
smoking ruins Of the town, and perhaps
lend hand toward burying some luck
less resident who had lost his scalp.
Arrived at Flandreau they found all
quiet on the Sioux, every one in peace
able possession of his hair, and rejoic-
ing because, thus far, the pesky grass
hoppens had given them wide berth.
