Candidates for appointments at the hands
of the new council are numerous. It is not
likely that any extended changes will be
made.
This is a good season for boys in Red
Wing. The latest arrival was at B. B. Her.

The inspectors for the railroad election,
which takes place next Monday, will meet
in the several wards tomorrow to correct
poll lists.
The police captured ten tramps Sunday
night. Acity rock pile is needed upon which

pay the expense of entertaining them.
Copious showers fell on the Sd and 4th
inst, extending generally throughout the
county, thus insuring good send off for the
crops. Present appearances are excellent
for good harvest.
Louis Wagner, of Cannon Falls, came to
town last Friday, borrowed 1886, paid taxes
to the amount of $1O.26, and then struck
out for fun. He gave the balance of his
money to the proprietor of the Hickman
house, who kept it over night for him, and on
demand delivered it up Saturday morning.
Shortly afterwards the police gathered hin,
in, and gave him lodging in the calaboose
but alas! his money was all gone except $6
and the impression is deep on his mind that
he fell among thieves.
| A special meeting of the city council was
held Saturday morning, and after canvassing
the votes of the recent election, proceeded

A Dramatic Trial.

After a trial lasting more than week
Buchholz has been found guilty of murder
in the first degree for the killing of the old
German miser, Schultz, near South Nor
walk last December. The conviction was
undoubtedly obtained through the evil
dence Of the skilful detective, Stark, who
having himself imprisoned as criminal
in the jnil with Buchholz wormed himself
into his confidence, and although not OBJ
tanning any direct evidence of the prisoners s
commission of the murder, yet got from
him the hiding place OF large sum of
money taken from the old mans person.
This startling and dramatic testimony, with
other conirmatory facts laid before the
jury, convinced them that Buchholz had
money recovered. It is extremely difficult
to draw the line where detective ingenuity
should be stayed in hunting down such a
crime as this, but it seems to us that the
revolving work done by Stark is very
close to that line. How information thus
much more practical question to answer,
and In this trial 1t seems pretty clear that
it required efficient support before being
acceptable to the jury. AS to the morality
Of the matter, if the end justifies the means
all is said that can be said. There
must have been something like false
swearing necessary to procure a COM
mitment of Stark on the charge of
attempted robbery, or else playing with
legal forms in which some judicial officers
acted farcical part. The whole procedure
has a disagreeable aspect and savors of the
uncleanly methods of governments which
we call despotic. Buchhoz is without
doubt despicable character, Lawyer Olm-
stead determined prosecutor and Stark q
clever simulator; but those who concur in
the verdict may still regret that justice had
to stoop SO low to secure conviction.

his native land, and it is not surprising
that his own admiring countrymen emulate
the honors which have been paid to
him in foreign lands. The spontaneous
demonstrations of respect in the city
of San Francisco should be all
the more gratifying to General Grant by
the fact that they are not intended to have
any political significance. They are the
free Offering of independent citizens, and
not a Fictitious demonstration gotten up for
party effect. The proposed Grant ''boom"
which was projected by silly politicians and
time-servers several months ago fell
through long before his arrival, and
the present local demonstration at San
Francisco is one which he'can accept with
out any loss of self-respect. 1t is paid to
him in his character as an illustrious Amer
ican citizen and not as a Presidential can
didate. We believe that there is no por-
ton of his countrymen who are not ready to
join cordially in marks of respect to the
great soldier and illustrious citizen, hon
ored by SO many peoples and SO many gov
ernments in all the great seats of civiliza-
tion, provided they are at liberty to honor
the man without committing themselves to
any scheme for degrading him from his
great national reputation into the vulgar
arena Of party politics

The Big Walk.

At one o'clock tomorrow morning begins
the fifth contest for the Ashley belt, which
will give the sport lovers of the metropolis
an opportunity to talk pedestrianism of
the 'go-as-you- please" variety for a whole
week. 1t will be the third contest for the
belt which has taken place in this city, and
will probably eclipse il interest all races
of the kind hitherto contested here. The
thirteen entries include Weston. the pres
ent champion. and Rowell, the ex-cham-
pion; the former with his clear record of
five hundred and fifty miles and more
work in him; the latter with five hundred
miles and no signs of wearing out.
Next to these stand in favor Hazael and
Guyon, but Ennis will be greeted appre-
ciatively, and others of the thirteen, now
unknown to metropolitan fame, will prob
ably be on every ones tongue before the
week is out 1t needs no recourse 10 super
stition to foresee that one or more of the
unlucky number will drop by the wayside
before next Saturday, leaving more room
for faster and better-staying competi-
tors. No doctor can find the weak spots in
a man as can a long-distance walk Ennis,
who generally upsets his stomach during
his first days performance. knows this, and
is trying to dodge that weakness by the
novel plan Of getting himself internally
upset and reset before the race begins.
The opinion among sporting men prevails
that the same amount of ground cam
not be covered in walking matches
here as in England, on account
of the climate. This is curious, if
true TO test it they are having dirt and
tan bark track laid exactly on the English
plan. Beside this belief it is curious to put
another-namely, that better scores can be
made in rifle shooting here than in England
because of the greater clearness and dry
ness Of our atmosphere, the foreign rifemen
shooting better here than at home. These
and similar questions we may expect to find
well aired during the next few days
Whether the managers have done wisely in
making the admission one dollar is their
business. They naturally desire to grab
all they can, for gate money and glory have
equal claims on the contestants, and if the
charge keeps too many away we may expect
to see it lowered There is good feeling oil
round among the men, and we have only
to wish that the best may win.

Closer and Closer in Asia.

If Russia has had no hand in the out
break ut Herat and did not instigate the
trouble at Cabul, things are working as
wonderfully to her advantage as though
she was responsible for all that has hap
pened to disturb Afghanistan. France,
which early in the century was believed
in England to have filled ''the butchers
shops with big blue flies" as we'll as doing
everything else disagreeable, has quite
First the Ameer was under Russian in
duence; now it is the Ameer's brother who
is suspected, because, like Yakoob, he es-
capped slaughter during the revolts. 1t is
hard to have such difficult masters that
they will only believe in servants
fidelity when he has bullet put through
his skull. However the question of
loyalty may stand, England must now
make not one but three expeditions if she
would reduce the Afghans to submission.
The ''dash to Cabul" via the Shutar Gar
dan Pass is o small matter beside the work
ahead in retaking and holding the road
from the Khyber via the Cabul River to
the Afghan capital. Still more inn
portant must be the movement on
Herat, and made in vastly superior force.
The worst Of it is that it will be extremely
difficult to equip force tor this purpose
before the snow falls, and the lam mentable
state of affairs at Herat may meanwhile
make it necessity. sin the name of human
ity," for the Russians to get there
ahead of the English. This would
be extremely awkward. The Persians
who are said from their airy polite
ness to be the French of Asia,
would scarcely like to see war on their
frontier between two such civilized Powers,
and would ask some status in the difficulty.
Is 1t thus that the two giants are to come
face to face to battle or make treaties that
will defer the battle for the Hindoo Kush as
the Muscovite frontier?

winds are increasing Oh its northern and eastern
margins and heavy rain is falling. The barom.
cter continues high in all the central and north
rrn sections of the country. In the West il ia
also high, but a fall has set in, owing to the
advance of depression from the North Pacific
coast districts. Rain fell in the Middle Atlantic
and New England States and in the districts
affected by the southern disturbance above

The temperature has varied but little in the
Gulf and South Atlantic States and has fallen
in the other districts The winds are fresh to
brisk in the lake regions, brisk TO high on the
Gulf coast and light elsewhere. The disturb
ance will prove very severe along the Atlantic
coast during the next few days, particularly
north of Cape ilattcras. The weather over the
British Islands is becoming unsettled, and there
are indications OF the movement of disturbance
Ia the North. The weather in New York and
it's vicinity to-day will be cold and fair, followed

Good Men for Local Offices.

We are likely to have three full sets Of
candidates Tor the local, Legislative and
municipal Offices to choose from at the
coming election. Tammany, anti-Tam-
many and the republicans will, undoubt-
edly, each nominate q full ticket, and there
is even remote possibility Of q fourth.
In the mixed condition of State politics,
with Tammany malcontents on one side
and republican malcontents on the other,
party lines will be materially loosened and
an unprecedented amount OF scratching
will take place. In the minor, but to New
Workers highly important, Offices the citi-
zens will select freely from the rival tickets.
The party nominations cannot be relied on
to carry any Tom, Dick and Harry through
who may squeeze himself into tho graces of
the leaders. 1t therefore behooves the
party managers to see that none but good
candidates are named. Seven State sena-
tors and twenty-four members of Assembly
are to be sent to Albany, and for the latter
office especially there will probably be half
dozen sets of candidates in the field.
There are besides sheriff, county clerk,
Common Pleas judge, two Marine Court
Judges two civil justices. three coroners
and twenty-five aldermen. Let each party
give US a candidate for sheriff who
will have some comprehension of his
duties and be able to exercise some con-
troll over his voracious subordinates be-
side exacting his share of the fees. Men
of intelligence and uprightness, of some
degree Of education, should be obtainable
for this important and lucrative position.
Let them also give US candidates for county
clerk who can be content with the legal
charges. For the judicial positions we
trust it is not necessary to impress on the
leaders that only sound lawyers should be
nominated. Why, we may ask, has it been
customary to throw the important nominal
tons for civil justices to men without the
first qualification AS such have been
not only nominated, but elected, to
the hideous detriment of the judicial
machinery, making certain courts re-
proach to honesty the law and to decent
manners, it is to be hoped that proper can
didates will be offered, as they can without
difficulty be found. AS to the coronerships,
it is disgraceful that they have been so
often thrown by the leaders to shouting
ignoramuses like bones to hungry dogs.
Resulting frequently as this practice
has in humiIiating displays of igno-
rance, in cases calling for the incest con-
sideration and intelligent handling, it
should no longer be so. In city like New
York coroner should be, rs in London
and other great cities, q skilled surgeon, well
grounded beside in the jurspruden CO of
his profession. Surely tho three parties
can find nine physicians of standing who
would do credit to this delicate office. For
good aldermanic candidates we humbly,
but not too hopefully, pray. The taxpay-
ers have right to something better than a
bear garden at the City Hall. We warn the
party leaders again that this will be good
year for scratching.
