but little controversy at the polls. Our

never be any reason for an opponent to

There is no city in the interior of the
State which enjoys so great a distinction
on account of the excellence and extent
of its hotel accommodations as Austin
docs. The newspapers are full of tlatter-
tering notices of our different hotels. The
following from the St. Paul Pioncer-Prcss
is Il very just tribute:
A large number Of people in ST. Paul have
reason to remember with pleasure Colonel J.
II. Mansfield, proprietor OF the Davidson
House, the leading hotel ut Austin, Minneso-
ia, whose motto is, clean beds, square meals,
and n" brown sugar. That the popularity Of
Colonel Mansfield in Minnesota is we'll de-
served, may be seen from the following para
graph in the GAINESVILLE (Wis.) Recorder {:
"Coloncl J. II. Mansfield, proprietor Of the
Davidson House, Aus tin, MIMI, made So
cial call ut our sanctum ON Wednesday. Tho
colonel is one CT the most popular landlords
in the northwest, and has been spending some
the beds and other equipments in the best
hotels with q view to supplying his own house
| in Austin with material just as good. His
cstablishme mt is furnished with woven wire
mattresses, the same kind that are used in
the Palular House Of Chicago. We have heard
| it stated by numerous travelling men that the
Colonel sets tho best table Of any hotel in
Minnesota. He was formerly citizen OF
Rock county, having settled ut Delevan thirty
five years ago. At one time Colonel NJ. was
American Consul at Bogota, New Granada
and later was Consu! ut Tohasco, Mexico. Ill
was at the latter place during the Maximilar
war, and was made prisoner by that would
