GOOD WORD FOR A Fl
POLITICIAN.
from the New Ulm Herald.]

General Rdgerton is very unpopular with
the railroad companies, white his successor, J.
J. Randall, Is great favorite with them, es-
pecially with the Winona & St. Peter. We
want no better evidence Of Gen. kdgerton hay
ing performed his duty fearlessly.
We do not propose to say an unk'nd
word against Mr.. Randall; he is very
pleasant gentleman; the Legislature has
given him a fat Office, with nothing to do,
and he will do it conscientiously and fear.
lessly.
Gen. Edgerton, and the ideas he repre-
scented, are temporarily under . cloud;--
the Rings have set down on and sqnelched
them but they will be heard from IN
due time. To every day there is
morrow.
