Hans Mattson, a secondhand politician
of some renown in this State, being nov CT
no further use, to those who until recently
were glad to secure his services, gets hoist
ed out of the ring in the following uncer-
emonious manner Of course there must
be some truth in the following statements,
as Hans was an sctive partner in the Re-
publican Candidate Manufacturing Co. for
many years. The Pioneer Press says.
Hans Mattsen is q wcll,known Swedish
political commission merchant, who deals
in Scandinavians by Wholesale and retail.
He causes it to be understood that he con-
trolls their political opinions, preferences
and votes, and that lie is ready at any time
to fill large orders for State or ,cengres-
sionsl ticket, or small ones for local trade.
The consideration is exacted in money
down or in time drafts on the national
treasury in the form of promise of the
first fat Office that becomes vacant. He is
not particular as to which party gets the
benefit of his services, as was shown when
he helped to defeat Strait and elected a
Democrat to congress from the second dis
trict. But Notwithstanding this notice to
the Republican politicians that if they want
his aid they must pay proper price for
the service, Hans has not been strikingiy
successful in this line of business. His ue.
cuniary receipts have been grossly dispro
portionate TO bis demands, and his drafts
have not been honored as he expected.
The result is that Hans is mad

The Big Stone County Herald, published
at Ortonville, says
1t Is reported that the grain is graded
lower at Mcrris than here and that farmers
are -of.en compelled to pay from three 10
four dollars for the privilege of unloading
their wheat at the elevator. as the railroad
company do not carry off the grain. and
have allowed the elevator to become full
consequently If any wheat is received it is
done through accommodation, or the farm
er is made TO pay for all trouble or incon
venience that may occur in handling. We
do not vouch for the truth OF the above, but
1t is currently reported TO be true by parties
who have been 10 Morris with their wheat.
But we do know that great trouble does
exist at Morris in taking care of the grain,
and until the new elevator is completed it
is not likely to be any better

Another attempt, the third within year,
has been made upon the life of the Gar
Alexander of Russia. The last attempt was
the explosion of a mine under the railroad
track over which the, train in which he
was travelling had to pass, luckily an extra
baggage train was mistaken for the one
containing his royal highness and suite,
and he thus escaped injury. The extra
train was badly wrecked and the track torn
up and destroyed b.. the force of the ex-
plosion. Numerous arrests hive been
made.

Maj, Reno bids fair to worst his perse-
cutors this time, and it will probably be
the last effort they will make to down him.
Reno is not an angel by any means, but is
the peer of many of those who are hound
ing and doing all in their power to injure
him. If there is place on earth where a
man can be made to feel as though he were
in the internal regions, and during the hot
test season of the year at that, it is in the
circle of affectation, gold lace, jealousy,
airs and iusincerity army life. There is not
much TO admire in Reno, but that he is the
victim of persecution there is not the least
particle of doubt

Donneliy win be the first taken up by the
committee. Mr. Donhelly.is now in Wash
ington looking after his interests in this
case, and although he is seemingly fighting
III the face of, and against heavy odds, yet
we believe he has much stronger case
than many are willing to admit His
charges of fraud and bribery may or may
not DC sustained; but should there be any
grounds for the belief that Washburn or
bis friends, in one Rolitary instance, resort
cd to dishonest means to defeat DonneIly,
we hope the committee will report in favor
of seating tho contestant, DO after wheth-

votes behind In this Instance, neither

Washburn used fraudulent means to secure
his election, he should not only be unseat

A Chicago niaa claims to have invented
a process for making water burn, and to
utilize it for lighting and heating purposes.
Several professors who have. expressed
their views on the subject, declare total
dishelief in the alleged discovery How.
ever, we hope the C. M. has accomplished
what he claims, we long to be rid of this
waste of snow that lies in front of our
doors, and the most sudden way to do it, is
to set fire to it. 1t seems funny to think
OF it-now don't it-just imagine yourself
putting water on u fire to make it burn,
or scratching an icicle on your pants leg to
light your cigar. Well, well, things ia

We have received a copy of a very inter
esting letter which was published in the
Minneapolis Evening News, of August Sth,
1871, describing the City of Morris" The
letter will prove very interesting, and will
show the. great change wrought by few
short years. The Morris of 1871, and of
1880, are two different cities, so different
that no one would recognize in our quiet,
thrifty and well governed village, the hell
hole of nine years ago.
