DROPPED DEAD.
That Was the Way jeremiah Nero Departed
Yesterday

That Was the Way jeremiah Nero Departed
Yesterday.
jeremiah Nero, who has resided on lower
Seventh street, just below Olive, dropped in
stantly dead yesterday morning, between
seven and eight o'clock. Mr.. Nero was a
very large man, weighing about 2sO pounds,
and had suffered for some time, especially
since last Christmas, with an oppression in
breathing of an asthmatic character. This
ailment had prevented his sleeping very
soundly at times, but did not prevent his
following his avocation as a saw tiler. an oc-
cupation he had adopted in consequence
OF his immense size and increasing years
so interfering with his activity as to prevent
his following bis trade as carpenter, in
which he was quite skillful. On Saturday
night he was restless, but not more SO than
usual. He got up from bed and sat down on
trunk, while his wife, to whom he was
speaking, kindled the fire. Mr.. Nero was
behind Mrs. Nero at the time. She heard a
loud noise, and turning round beheld her
husband lying fiat upon the floor, with his
face downward. The coroner visit
ed the scene during the day, but
deemed it unnecessary to hold
formal inquest, as the deceased had palpa
bly, died from palpitation of the heart, proba-
bly, aggravated by dropsical tendency.
Mr.. Nero was about IS years of age at the
time of his extremely sudden death. he was
native of Quebec, Dominion of Canada
which place he left when 21 years of age tc
assume a position in the Red River country
under the Hudson Bay company. Sixteen
years ago he came to st. Paul, where he has
since resided. Deceased was we'll and favor
ably known to Hon. N. w. Kittson and othe1
Northwestern traders.

DIR. STEWARDS MAIDEN SPEECH

r.
DIR. Stewart has expressed his views in
Congress on Indian matters. He is opposed
to the transfer of the Indian to the War
department., and considers the secret of In
dian civilization to be citizenship. Several
years ago, we took occasion to urge this
doctrine on the public, and the Doctor
proves himself to have been good scholar.
Added to the many good reasons against the
transfer is the additional one that Sherman,
besides his army duties proper, is SO devoted
to dancing and to letter writing as to leave
him no time for the Indian business
What is needed in the Indian man
agement is an entire change of
men and measures. Honest men are needed,
and bead and whisky trading should be sup
pressed. Establish territorial supervision,
with laws and courts, and make the Indians
submit, and become citizens, and the difficult
ty of Indian management will disappear.
We hope the Doctor, while in Congress, will
try to do some good for the State. Party
has always rested very lightly on his

The Pioneer Press broke ground gently
yesterday on the Congressional question. As
was to have been expected, it pronounces in
favor of Washburn. We had, heretofore,
considered Stewards chances of renomi1a-
ton somewhat impaired, but the support of
Washburn by the Pioneer Press is strong
and substantially decisive card for the
Doctor. It is evident that Mr.. Wheelock has
the positive promise of the post Office from
Washburn, for he not only stabs Stewart but
sneers at Ramsey's candidacy. Ever since
Senator Mcmillan removed Mr.. Wheelock
from the post Office, he has conducted
his newspaper with an eye single
to returning to that position.
We are sorry for Mr.. Washburn, for while
we have no sympathy with him politically,
We could not wish our worst enemy SO Sc
we're an infiction as to be chained to this
would-be postmaster of St. Paul.

OUSCING HAYES.
That Some Of the Prominent Politician
Say about 1t.

What Some Of the Prominent Politicians
Say About 1t.
The following interviews have been OBJ
tanned relative to Montgomery Blair's propo-
sition to re open the Presidential controversy:
Senator Conkling said if the purpose was
to permit Maryland to act before the SUI
preme court on quo warranto, no act of
Congress is necessary. The constitution al
ready provides the way. The Senator had
heard that special tribunal was to be Gre
ated, if Blair and another party interested
with him could secure its organiza-
ton. The tribunal was to consist of
chief Justice and all the members of the
court whose judicial districts could be SO
arranged that all the States in the Union
would be represented in the tribunal. Conk-
ling could not state what the ultimate sue
cess of such movement would be.
Senator Howe said he would not be party
to any such movement.
Senator David Davis and Gen. Morgan,
conversing upon the memorial, concluded
that to carry out its provisions would not in
validate Hayes title. They both agreed that
the United States Supreme Court would hold
that Congress had already exercised its re-
served power under the constitution to settle
the Presidential difficulty when it created the
electoral commission. Gen. Morgan would
take no part in such controversy. He
thought the Democrats could gain more by
keeping the question open.
William E. Chandler said Blair s memorial
amounts to nothing. The Democrats
COULD PUT HAYES OUT TOMORROW
if they wanted to do it. They don't need a
special tribunal. "Do you mean by that,
Mr.. Chandler, that they could impeach him ?''
"No,'' replied Chandler, ''but by simply
passing law for his removal. But they
won't do it. The Democrats are satisfied
with Mr.. Hayes. They are getting all they
want. AS long as the Democrats can get
Office they will never interfere with Mr..
Hayes. Blair's memorial has no support
ers.'
Abram s. Hewitt, Tilden's old manager,
said Mr.. Blair called upon him to ask if he
would support his bill. Mr.. Blair said the
measure was not perfected, and he could not
tell now the character of it. Mr.. Hewitt
stated that he had told Mr.. Blair that if Mr..
Tilden believed he had suffered wrong
of allowing him an opportunity to go before
the supreme court, and would vote for any
measure allowing him to do so. If Mr..
Blair wanted remedial legislation to redress
the wrong, he approved of it, but judicial
legislation for the purpose of creating a
special tribunal, he was averse to. He be-
ieved that the two Houses of Congress when
they declared Mr.. Hayes President, settled
the question, and there was an end to the
Presidential controversy forever.

THE WAY CONGRESS- GIVES MONEY.
Reform is necessary in the matter of Con
gressional appropriations. It is next to I'M
possible to secure any money for national
improvement, without it's being loaded down
with numberless local matters, reducing the
amount, so as to make it Intellectual, and
converting the entire appropriation for
river and harbor improvements into
stupid farce The method seems to be to
determine, first, the amount Congress con-
siders the government able to give, as sum
total, and then to cut it up into thousand
smaller amounts for the benefit of local pol
iticiaps.
The result of this wretched bus
mess is, that from year to year, the
money, SO appropriated, is thrown away
scarcely one contemplated improvement
receiving enough to do any good. Through
the continent flows the Mississippi, the life
pulse of one third of the States of the Union,
flowing from beyond the borders of the
United States down to the gulf, fertilizing
it's great valley into the garden of the earth,
and giving bread and prosperity to the whole
country, and yet ask dollar of Congress
to improve its navigation, and ten thousand
miserable schemes spring up to absorb the
money, all of which should be given for the
improvement of this highway of commerce.
A Senator from Minnesota, Window by
name, for years devoted his whole time and
labor to the improvement of the Fox river,
instead of concentrating all his
energies, if he has any, for the benefit of his
State, and of the West, to secure the perma-
nent improvement of the Mississippi.
Each Congressman has some pet scheme
of his own, some local improvement, and he
will not vote for the bill unless he gets
slice. The system is one of general
divide, and is rotten to the CORE
National movements should not be made
to yield to every petty scheme to elect a
Congressman. The man who engages in
such trickery is as corrupt as if directly he
took bribe. Every measure should stand
on its individual merits, and not until this
doctrine is recognized, and honesty intro
duced into the manner of making Congress
sional appropriations, may we expect our
great river to receive the attention necessary
for its permanent improvement.

If Congress should pass Blair's bill giving
the State of Maryland an opportunity to
contest Hayes title, the Republicans hope to
retain their postoffices by the interposition
of the Presidential veto. That would be an
interesting veto surely, but the man who
would accept the Presidency when not
elected, would resort to any means to retain
the stolen goods.

Il Covert Stab at Ste,u0,.t.
Pioneer Press Of Sunday.]

The third district promises to be all torn
up with the coming contest for the Republi-
can nomination for Congress. General Viii
liam D. Washburn, of Minneapolis, has
again entered the field as candidate, and
has been diligently engaged for months in
organizing his forces to carry the district
against the present incumbent, Hon. Jacob
II. Stewart. The friends of the latter claim
that as DR.. Stewart has served only for one
term, he is entitled by courtesy and party
usage to a second term. Against this theory,
however, it is urged by the friends of Wash
burn that Stewart was only elected to fill the
second term which belonged to William S.
King, and that Minneapolis was entitleds
by virtue of Kings claim to second term.
to the nomination which was conferred two
years ago on a St. Paul man. In the
counties west of Hennepin and Ramsey
there is, however, some disposition to
dispute the right of St. Paul and Min
neapol1s to monopolize the congressional
representation of the district. It
is urged that since Minnesota became a
State one or the other of these two cities
has always furnished the congressman, ex-
cept in the three terms when Donnelly rep
resented the district, then embracing Da-
kota county. There was, first, Col. Cyrus
Aldrich, of Minneapolis, who served two
terms; then Donnelly, who served for three;
then Eugene Wilson, of Minneapolis, one
term; then Gen. j.. T. Averill, who had the
rare fortune to be closely identified with
both cities, though resident of st. Paul, for
three terms; and then DR.. Stewart for one
term. There are some indications of a pur-
pose to appeal to these facts as II reason why
the next representative should be chosen
from the Western part of the district, and in
this connection the name of Hon. G. A. Gil.
man, of St. Cloud, late speaker of the house.

Nelson, of Alexandria, while there are whis-
pers that in the event of such movement

Wright County Times.
Congressman Stewart believed he was
right when he voted against the silver bill,
although he acknowledges that in SO doing
he did not express the sentiment of his con-
stituents. The honesty Of his motives is al
legged by his friends as reason why he
shonld be renominated. But this may not
be considered entirely sufficient by the nomi-
mating convention. Gen. Averill was also
believed to be, and no doubt was, honest in
supporting the salary grab, but the fact did
not avail him when the question of renomi-
mating him came up for consideration. It
will be for the nominating convention to de-
termine how much importance is to be at
tached to Mr.. Stewards position on the sill
yer question and to what extent his vote
may have affected his availability as candi-
date. If it shall appear that his chances of
reelection have been seriously impaired by
his record on this question it will obviously
be the duty of the convention to select new
standard bearer.

The St. Paul and Minneapolis dailies are
beginning to agitate the Congressional ques-
ton, and as consequence various names
are suggested. Among them we notice
Ramsey, Averill and Stewart of St. Paul, and
w. D. Washburn, of Minneapolis. Not a
name thought of or suggested outside of
those cities, though there are many in the
district, who, to say the least, are as COM
petent to fill the position as any of the
above named gentlemen. In fact, it is
amusing to read the comments of the
dailies of those two cities. They appear
to look upon the balance of the district as a
mere necessary appendage, fit only to fur
nish the votes when called upon, with no
rights whatever in the selection of candi-
dates, except perchance, to have choice in
the candidates proposed by those cities. The
time is not far distant when the balance of
the district will refuse to furnish votes, un-
less their right to share of the honors is
recognized.
