ACCORDING to Washington correspondent
of the New York Herald there has been
some discussion about holding the sessions
of the Potter investigating committee in
secret. There ought to be no discussion
whatever about such q matter. The investi-
cation must be as open as free air. The OBJ
ject of the inquiry is to inform the people
by legal evidence Of the fraud by which
their will was set aside, and to have anything
like secrecy about such matter would be to
turn the whole affair into farce. We guess
much ''horse sense" to venture upon any
thing so absurd as secrecy.

The Doctor has one Decided Opiuton.

Little Falls Transcript.-Rep.
The opinion is frequently expressed that
DR.. Stewart seldom takes decided stand on
any question, but allows his opinions to be
warped by the influences that he happens to
be under. There are several good reasons
for the prevalence of this opinion, but we
do not desire to see the doctor moderated.
and take pleasure in referring to his
recent letter expressing his desire
for denomination, as proof that he does have
decided opinions. This letter furnishes in
disputable evidence that the doctor is
capable of taking positive and uncompro-
missing stand when official honors are at
issue.

THE HEARTY GREETING!
WHICH n EXTENDED TO THE

LIE Sueur Sentinel, Dem.
Washburn appears to have gained the
first victory over DR.. Stewart in the sharp
contest for the Republican nomination for
Congress in the third district. The notori-
Gus L. Fletcher, who runs the St. Peter in
sane asylum, was at the bottom of the sharp
practice, and it shows just his capacity.
Josh aud John Quincy Didn't hare to do
Fergus Falls Journal.-Rep.I
With all due Difference to Mr.. Marshall
and the Pioneer Press, we had thought that
Republican ooters IF the third district are
the Eaen-and the only ones-who are to be
consulted, not only as to when they shall
hold their convention, but also as to whom
they shall nominate. The people look for a
public officer to 80 conduct his official bust
ness as to commend himself for re-nomina-
ton. Like all congressman, DR.. Stewart
has had this in mind from the day of
his election, and we hold that prop
osition to wait for the adjournment of Con-
gress before convention is held is insulting
to the people. When has the theory of our
government changed? Do the people choose
their Congressman? or does the sitting mem
Der manipulate his district? We de not be-
lieve that DR.. Stewart asks the people to
wait for his return that he may manage the
convention. BY no such tricks did John
Quincy Adams. Joshua r. Giddings nor E.
B. Washburn for 80 many years hold their
places as 'sfathers of the house."

The Democrats SisOMtA Curry the Second
District.
[Winona Herald.

Tho closest Congressional district in the
State is the second, and the Republicans
claim two thousand majority in that dis
trict. The Democratic candidate who is
nominated must get several hundred Repub-
ican votes to be elected. This fact be-
hooves the Democratic party in that district
to put forward their strongest man, one
who will poll the most votes. To Demo-
cratic journalist who lives outside the dis
trict and viewing the situation from no per-
sonal standpoint, if the Democratic conven-
ton don't nominate Hon. Ara Barton, from
Rice county, it will be mistake.
When he ran for Governor he carried the
district by three thousand majority. Since
that time, twice has he been elected sheriff
of Rice county by overwhelming majorities.
Last fall for that Office he received over seven
hundred majority, while Pillsbury for Gov
ernor carried the county By the sams major
ity. By all means put Barton in nomina-
ton, it will make q judicious one, and that
district will be redeemed from radical thral-
dom.

Charlie WilsOn Must Not be Busted.
lGlencoe Register.
It was undoubtedly very unfair in Fetch
er to take advantage of the circumstances
and secure the meeting of the convention in
Minneapolis, SO long as he knew that Gov.
Marshall preferred to have it meet in st.
Paul. This was undoubtedly very unkind,
in view of the remarkably unselfsh charac-
ter of ye st. Paul politician! We are rather
surprised at this unwonted display of impu-
dence on the part of the meek and inoffen-
sive Fletcher. 1t would have become him
better to have stood with bowed head in the
presence of such disingenuous and match
less virtue, and allowed the convention to be
carried to DR.. Stewards door.
There is no doubt that the nomination
and election of w. D. Washburn to Con-
gress would be most creditable to tho re-
public ms of the third district, and but for
one consideration we should hope to see
this done. When we remember that the
defeat of Stewart would take from the
hands of Charlie Wilson the distribution of
government patronage in that district we
fear the result might be disastrous. We do
not know Stewart, but we do know Charlie,
and when he says he controls the govern
ment pap, we are inspired with sublime
confidence IN Stewart.

We have no doubt that Washburn is by
far the best and ablest man of the two, but
to choose such man would be doing bust
ness contrary to the principles and estab-
lished rules of this district. Since it has
been tho custom to retain the candidates for
two terms, Stewart cannot be overthrown
without ignoring this precedent, but this is
all the argument we find in his favor, as he
has not, nor will not represent this district
more faithfully than Washburn.

assumption that . delivery upon the line of the
Northern Pacific road of any portion of the
surplus ties, however few in number, was a
controlling fact or circumstance that entitled
him of right to demand and receive the whole
surplus on that line. The denial of the re-
quest was right.
The gist of his ninth request was that the al
legged settlement therein referred to, constitut-
ed no defense to recovery, If the jury found
the facts as therein stated. Instead of giving
the request in this language, the court in sub
stance instructed them that such settlement
was no defense irrespective of such facts, fer
the reason that it in no way affected his own
ership of the ties in question.
He got the whole benefit Of his request in
the instruction as given, and of course was not
prejudiced by the omission to give it ipsissins;s
aer6is
cause of the unqualified implication upon
which it rested, that the necessary facts had
been proved which would render the instruc-
ton proper. Whose duty it was to sepa-
rate the culls from the accepted ties,
depended upon the facts and circumstances
which it was the province of the jury and not
the court to determine. The cause of action
stated in the amended complaint was clearly
one arising ex contractu, and the Instructions
and rulings of the court in respect thereto
were unobj ectionable. y.s
Taking the entire charge together, it gave
