the Legislature four to one Repubi-

The Republican Senatorial com
mittee for this district have got
things badly mixed. Instead of
coming together and agreeing upon
the time and place for holding the
convention, a cart of the committee
called a convention to be held at
Sleepy Eye, and the other members
Of the committee, not knowing of the
first call, have issued call for a
convention to be held at Marshall.
Both are called for next Tuesday,
October 18th. What the result Of
this double call will be we cannot
fcretell as the time is short and the
blunder can not we'll be remedied.
The Redwood and Brown county
delegates will no doubt attend the
Sleepy Eye convention and the 9TH
ers the Marshall convention. The
calls also differ in one or two instan-
ces in the superintendent Of dele.
gates.
P. S.-Sinee writing the above
Hon. G. B. Tyler, one ofthe com.
mittee, who signed the Sleepy Eye
call, has requested us to say that the
convention will be held at Marshall,
Tuesday, Oct. 18th, at 4 p. M, and
not at Sleepy Eye. This action will
harm0nize matters and prevent the
nomination Of two candidates.

evening that the Sioux Indians Of
the Red Cloud and Spotted Tail
agencies had all left their reserva-

toward the Black Hills. The Red
Clouds deserted their agency two
days before, and are probably hun

it signifies ageneral war.
1t IS many years since the Red
Clouds and Spotted Tails have shown

such proportions as to require the
services Of the entire army to deal

Facts About Resumption.

Facts About Resum ption.
Editor Reriew:
Last week we stated some facts
about the greenbacks; and now we will
invite attention to few facts about
resumption.
l. The nation is pledged for it; and
has been for years, ever since, in fact.
1859. At that time ssthe faith Of the
United States was solemnly pledged to
make provisions at the earliest practi-
cable period for the redemption Of the
United States notes in coin Revised
Stat. Of the U. 5. p. 7a5. It was in
view of this that the January act Of
1875 provided for resumption on Janu-
airy lst, 1879.
2. The nation is and has been, work.
ing towards the fulfillment of it's obli-,
cation. It is bound to do this in order
to maintain it's character for honesty
and it's self-respect. Every obstacle
that is put in the way to defeat the.
national pledge bears dishonest mark
3. But before we state any further
fact about resumption let us carefully
note what resumption means. Re-
sumption does not mean ~ contraction
Of the currency, Many seem to think s0s
but it is a great mistake. The contrac-
ton Of the currency is in NO wise in-
volved in the act of resumption. Sup
pose two million dollars in greenback
notes are taken up by the government
and actually destroyed; the two mill
lion dollars in coin necessary for their.
redemption, and not now in circula-
ton, will be added to the volume Of
currency and there will be no dimina-
tion or contraction. But resumption
does not mean ~ the destruction of
the whole volume Of greenbacks. The
government is required by law to MAIN
tain $346, 100000 of greenbacks and
that, too, at par with coin, and to be
kept so after resumption. Resumption
does not mean 81 that greenbacks to
any amount must be exchanged for
coin. This is false and pemicious
view Of the matter.
What then does resumption mean?
Simply this: resumption means that
aulte7s the holder q a greenback desires
to e.rchange 1t for com, he can do so
and receiDe for 1t one square dollar.
But It any man prefers to use note as
money instead Of the coin he may re-
ceive for it, he can do so and no man,
or law will compel him to make an ex-
change. Resumption means that the
greenback shall not be shared. Unless
the total amount Of currency exceeds
the demands of business PROBABLY but
very little will be passed in for redemp-
ton. Resumption means that the
whole volume Of gold and silver coin
shall be added to the currency Of the
country. Gold and silver will not be
bought and sold then chiefly as COM
modify; but will be used as money!.
pure and simple. Resumption then
don't mean 1.-THE day Of doom as q cel..
tain orator would have us believe.

Special Correspondence to St. Paul Dispatch.
HENDERSON, Mimi, Oct, PTS.
Just now, when certain newspa-
pers are lauding the democratic can.
didate in the Second Congressional
district to the skies and putting their
man before the people especially
the Germans-as entirely spotless
and lovely to behold, would it not be
we'll to lift the curtains of the past
and scrutinize some Of the acts of
this modern Solone
Firstly. ''When war waged its
wide desolation, and threatened our
land to deforln,'' your brave Henry
was in bad tribulation and turned
tail and fled from the Storm Have
the people ofhis own county and i'm.
mediate neighborhood forgotten the
memorable first war meetings, where
old Whitlock, in an enthusiastic
speech, fired the hearts Of the boys
up to the enlisting point, and our
Henry among the lot. just to encour-
age the boys, said: II am going;
we're all going Did he go? Echo
answers No! Coward!
Secondly. When the commits.
sioners Of Sibley county tried their
very best, after the war to repudiate
the resolution of the same body in
1862, giving bounty Of 500 to
every man enlisting for three years,
and when the records of that board,
together with everything else, were
accidentally burned where was
the voice Of Henry Pehler! Loud
and boisterous were his protestations
against this bounty act; ''the county
will never be able to pay it, said
he; 1--WE will be taxed to death if we
have to pay this county bounty. We
can't do it. We wiZ not do it!
Thirdly. When the county was
compelled to pay it-thanks to a
just judge-and county orders were
issued to each of these veterans and
heroes yes, and to their widows
amounting to about $11O each. to
what figure didHenryP ehler squeeze
down these county orders, because
there was mo money in the treasury
1t is an Internal outrage on the
county that we have to pay it., and
more of such deprecatory talk?-to
just about SIS or $50!
What did Henry do with the rest
Of this blood money; stolen-virtual-
ly stolen-from the widows and or
phans of some of the same men that
were going in 1852, because they
believed Henry was going tooe
We could prolong this list of in.
torogations ad infinitum, but the
good people in his Immediate vicini.
ty certainly recollect many more Of
Henry's grasping and rasping pro-
pensities, which stamp him in the
eyes of every fair minded voter as a
yeritable money shark; yes, Shylock
of old could with some show Of jus.
tice occupy seat among the right
eous, if Henry was only half as spot.
less as some Of his blatant organs
would have us to believe.

What they Eat i'm Sweden.

The ordinary routine of dining seems
in Sweden to be in wild confusion.
Soup sometimes ends instead Of begin
ming the dinner. Iced soups and cold
fish are dainties to the Scandinavian
palate. Much of the soup is nauseously
sweet, favored with cherries, Easberries
and gooseberries, often with macaroon
cakes and spikes of cinnamon floating
wildly about in it. This is eaten as
sort Of desert, and is cold and often beau
tifully clear. IF Heine bitterly reviled
the English for bringing vegetables on
the table M naiurel there is no such
complaint to be made here. Everything
ia eaten with gauce--sauces red, white,
blue. green, yellow and black--sauc
celestial and internal. Strong comblna-
tions of ice-cream heaped over delicious
anple-tarts, or strange dishes of berry
mice boiled down and mixed with farina,
sugar and almonds, then cooled, nodded
and turned out into basin Of cream, to
he eaten with crushed sugar and wine
anpear at the end OF dinner. The
swedes share with the Danes and Arabs
q passionate fondness for sweet-meats.
Everything is slightly sweet; even green
Deas are sugared, as well as the innum-
,rable tea and coffee cakes, so that long
before the unhappy tourist has finished
,is tour he is hopeless dyspeptic Or
aging Swedophobe.
