Mr.. D. D. Merrill has repented Of his sign
ing the stringently binding receipt he gave the
ther day for the $5,8S5.55 in warrants for
books heretofore purchased by counties, which
have not, however, RENTED for the same.
The receipt was of such nature that Mr..
Merrill bound himself not to present the war
rants for payment until the various amounts
due had been forwarded by the respective
counties the warrants represented.
Yesterday Mr.. Merrill endeavored to persuade
State Auditor Whitcomb to exchange the war
rants already given for Others upon the re
volving fund" To this request Mr.. Whitcomb
positively refused to accede. 1t is said that
Mr., Merrill will now set the machinery Of the
law in motion in the form of a mandamus upon
the State auditor to compel the latter to open
the revolving fund" (Which has no money in
it) for Mr.. Merrill's benefit.

We publish elsewhere an article from the
st. Paul GLOBE, in regard to the case of
Richard B. Coney, now confined in the
prison for life on the charge of murder
The idea sought to be established in that ar
ticle, that there is any reason to doubt the
guilt of this murderer is entirely erroneous
His crime was cold-blooded, premeditated
murder. There can be no doubt on this
point, because the testimony of an eye wit
ness, who was shot by Coney at the time he
committed the murder, is conclusive, not
only as to his intention to murder the man
whom he killed, but also to take the life of
this witness, whom he manned and disfie-
ured for life. The murderer plead guilty
upon his trial, and never entered word Of
protest against his sentence. His conduct
in the prison has been most reprehensible,
and fully establishes the conviction that he
is an exceedingly dangerous man. If he
had had justice done him he would have
been food for worms long since.

Shortly before IL o'clock last night Officer
Cook fonnd q swede neas,the corner of Jackson
and Seventh streets in a beastly state of intox-
ication, whom the policeman marched off to
the station with some difficulty, yet single
handed. Arriving there, the swede who was
too drunk or unwilling to give his name, re-
fused to submit to the usual search, and fought
like demon with the officer and jailor against
the operation. The cause of it all was readily
apparent when there was produced from his
outer right hand coat pocket villainous weap-
on. This consisted of leaden ball, some four
ounces in weight attached to the end of a
stout cord, thus forming the worst kind of a
is State prison offense Mr.. swede will find
himself. in an ugly prsdicament this morning,

We would respectfully suggest to the ST.

tons as to the next President. The silver

Thos. A. Hendricks as the probable Demo-
cratic and therefore successful candidate in
1880; but Allen G. Thurman is infinitely the
better man. Besides, while Halls predic-

he forfeited, having gone to Canada,
where he still is. The amount of the
