OUR NEXT SENATOR.

I.P. Durfee is his name and his home
is at Worthington, Mobiles County, a
town on the st. Paul and Sioux City
Railroad. He is a gentleman hereto
fore unknown to fame, but IS spoken of
as all honorable, upright man, and we
doubt not will make an efficient Sena-
tor. He pledges himself to faithfully
guard the interests of the district with
out regard to locality, and if he fulflls
his promise in this respect-and we
have no reason to think that he will
not-the people in this section will be
satisfied. The Republicans of Martin
County, although they had hoped that
their claims would be recognized by the
convention, and the Senatorship award
ed them, gracefully accepted the situa-
ton and will give Mr.. Durfee their
unanimous support. Martin County

GEN. BAKERS SPEEt.H:

GEN. BAKERS SPEECH
General J. II. Baker delivered a tell
ing Republican speech at Miller Hall
on Wednesday evening. He is a grace
full and fiery orator, and marsl'als his
points like General marsl,alling his
battalions. He SLOWED that Minnesota
had been made by Republican admins
trations, and that the only legacy left
by the Democracy during their, brief
term of power in this State was the FIVE
million loan swindle which has given
Minnesota the name of 4 repudiating
State. His logic showing that the De-
mocracy could not be trusted upon
reconstruction, finance, the public
school question, nor upon any of the
great issues, was irresistible. He also
made a good point when he showed
that the Democratic party WAS the only
party that ever took up a professional
gambler and pugilist, like Morrissey,
and sent him to Congress, or that ever
elected a peniten.iary convict, like
Tweed, to the State Senate.
OPENING OF THE SEMINARY.
The Worthington Seminary opened
on Monday last under charge of Prof.
E. c. Hill. Prof. Hnmlston will teach
class in Philosophy. Tie attendance
so far is not large, but sufficient sup
port is already pledged to secure the
continuance of the institution during
the two terms of twelve weeks each
which, have been advertised. There are
three scholars III attendance from Rock
County and eight or ten from Osceola
County, Iowa, will arrive in Il few days.
The best wishes of every friend of edu-
cation and of the community will 60
with the Seminary. The interest man.
Tested III the surrounding counties
shows the need Of such an institution
at Worthington and is All earnest of
success in the future, when the grass
hopper shall have ceased to be a "bur-
den.''

THE SCHOOLS.

We are frequently asked upon what
terms nonresident pupils will he ad-
mi:ted to the Wortlington schools.
The charge is $1.50 i month for each
pupil. Moving to town during the
winter for the purpose of sending chill
dren to the schools, will not exempt
parties from the payment of this fee.
