1t IS regarded as peculiarly fortunate
that tie late convention made choice of
two such sterling and able men to repre-
sent them rs $. j Sanlnrn and II. A.
Brown. Both Of them are well informed,
earnest, active and energetic. They arr:
familiar with the history and the wants
Of the State, and each ;!as the ability I"
crystalline his Opinions into forcible ex-
preston, and make himself trlt, not only
in open debate, but in cnlluqual discus
sirn. They are men who will know what
is in progress, and whether the proposed
measures are good or bad. In o,hc:
words, if admitted to seats there, their
action will he such as to compel the re-
spcct of their fellow members. Another
thing, they are unaltcrably republican,
and will give their votes IN favor Of CAN
didatc for U. s. Senator, who is not only
capable. but loyal rs we'll. Voters should
bear in mind that the democrats are striv-
ing with all their power 10 choose 4 leg
isla,ure that shall b. democratic, mainly
with a view to the election of one of their
own party to the Senate at Washington.
For these reasons our candidates sll3uld
get every republican vote in the county.

..PAr." CHILD ". MR.. nrxNE,.1,


Some time "g" JAS. E. Child, editor Of
the Waseca Radical, alleged that Mr..
nrOwn, Receiver If the New Ulm Land
Office, Il al been guilty Of gross official
misconduct, stating the case, but stating
it wrongly-.we think wi!tully so. From
his own standpoint he male very severe
comments upon the action IF Brown, and
charged Mr.. Dunnell with completely
with him in deriving a pccun,ary advan.
tagc from the TRANSACTION. So far "a he
has been able, Child has made out of the
r'or bach, capital tor the democratic party.
The facts are: these, viz: 4 Mr.. Gu>,nison
held II homestead claim upon which he
had made improvements. These, together
with his right, he sold to one Wass B..
fore the purchaser could apply for the
land the prior claim must have been re-.
linquishcd. Brown, the receiver, knowing
that Tic land was to he open to re.cnry,
and that Wass wanted to cn1cr the same,
Inform ii some other person Of the va
cancy, and that person ill. d a claim, thus
getting possession "f that which really
belonged to Wass. Upon hearing If the
circumstances, Mr.. Dunncll immedialvl,
eh 5ot!ied them in (. communication to-
the department at Washington, and sub
mil'ed the question to the authorities
whether Mr.. Brown ought no, to b. re-
\ - y
cidcdhy the Commissioner Of The Land
Office that thu ;7asc presented did not
show that Brown III his .a;cial capacity
had done my wrong, and that it Was l..,,
pr 'pcr for the department to .x:eNd lis
Inquiries in!o the Character OF the private
transactions Of its agents. Not sa,isti><
with this, and feeling tina; Brown had
made an improper Use OF knowledge
which came to him through his official po.
sition, Mr.. Dunnyll re.statcd the CASE. and
asked ITS further consideration To this the
department replied that, admitting every.
thing c':a;y~d against Brown to be true,
II would be Insufficient to justify his re.
moval "tor cause" Sill feeling that Mr.
Brown had doue what he could atone
for only by vacatny his Office, upoa his
own responsibility he asked the depart
mcni To rcNovc him, and the request was
granted. Impartial men acquainted with
the facts, commend Mr.. Dunucll for his
action. II Was crcditable 10 him and
JUST" his constituents. 1t is only ncccs
sary to say further that NJ. Child is II
maicon'ent. and thar he is in Ill. habit Of
expressing his own feelings and giving
them currency as substitutes for truth and
tairnrSs. 1t should also be said that
H"1cEkiSs accepts the statements OF Child
as facts. aud, condemns Mr.. Dunncll ac-
cording|y. This is the way llo:chkiss
has undertaken T., advance the interests
ut HE democracy, and to support, or rather
ride Judge Stacy. When llu,rhkis> OPP
poses u man as a rule, j, is Safe to support
that nan, hence Mr.. Duaocll should have
the iul! republican. vote.

has been said by the democrats about

terly impossible for them 10 show
that he is honest or loyal. 1t IS their plan

-Four times successfully the Repuhli-

fact there is a deep Significance. 1t

THE GREENBAcK TICKET.

There are to be found in nearly every
community few men claiming to he re.
publicans, who for personal reasons main-
]y, are unwilling to work in harmony
with the party. They pretend /" desire
some great acknowledgements not
included in the present regular order Of
effort, and upon this thin pretext, they
begin the work OF disorg"nization. They
have begun it here. Less than Il dozen
persons, none Of them Ii; wing either ex-
prrirnce. nor any other special aualitica
ton fl" the beginning and carr, ing for
ward Of any reform, have terminated g.
county ticket, and the candidates are ask.

favor the greenback financial policy. Sup.
p"se they do? VIVA, can D. S. Is. Molli
son or W. u. Peck do towards shaping
the money policy If the country? 1t is
no injustice to them to say that ,hos. &c.
quaiEtcd with them, have no confidence
whatever in the judgment If either upon
any question Of finance. Men who have
reachcd the age of fifty years, wl;hon,
having had any experience in public life,
and without having achieved any SUCCESS
in personal enterprises, are ~, sl:|. as
the people want IL trust with the W :rk OF
inauyurat'ng a new policy. The fact is,

fact is, those men care for nothing. and
they seek nothing bu, the possession OF

I, should be remembered that X. B.
Hayes Went into the war for tic Union ut
the first callnf the President. and staid
in until pence was restored. Tillen did
not ~ into the army ut all. neither did lie
let anyb''dy else 90 in whom he could
persuade to keep out. The difference bc-
tween Hayes and Tildcn, is tho difference
between LOYALTY and DlsLoyALTY, and
that alsn is tue difference between rcpub.
