Grant!

III the questions growing out of the
war had actually been settled by the
results of the war, then Grant would
be presidential impossibility. 1t is
because they want these things set.
tied, that the people instinctively
turn To Grant. The last Democratic
Congress and the rebel Brigadiers,
made Grants candidacy probable.
The last Congress was a kind of a
Grant Convention. If the South
would behave, Grant would be i'm.
possible. The conduct of the South.
ern Brigadiers, summoned the whole
army of stalwarts TO the field. The
woods are alive with them, and the
stalwarts are mostly for Grant. We
should like to see the presidential
cake cut for somebody else; but the
insanity of the South may compel the
and election of Grant,
Much will depend upon the action OF
the present congress.

The Lieutenant Governorship.

We read some Tins since in the
Minneapolis Tribune, that Mr.. Barn
UNI, late Democratic candidate for
Lieutenant Governor, was in that
city, consulting with eminent counsel
in reference to his chances for GUST
ing Charles Gilman. We have heard
nothing of the result of his legal con-
situations. But doubtless Mr.. Loeb
rem informed Mr.. Barnum, that even
if Gilman was not eligible, Barnum
was not, for the courts have invari-
ably held that in cases of the kind
the minority candidate is not elected,
even, though the majority candidate
is proven ineligible for any cause.
And then the principles set forth in
Mr.. Coles decision when Attorney
General would prevail to enstop Mr..
Barnum. Doubtless, therefore, Mr..
Barnum has returned to Sank Centre
a wiser man, and Gilman will be duly
inaugurated as Lieutenant Governor,
us he ought to be.

A Sugar Refinery.
j. II. BAKER,
Secretary

Why can't we have a sugar refinery
established in Mankato! The amount
of amber cane raised in this county
is simply enormous. The crude syrup
is worked up at the refinery makingfine
syrup and sugar. Capitalists need not
be afraid to take hold of the enterprise.
1t has paid large profits in Faribault.
There it has paid all the running ex-
penses, and ten per cent Oh the invest
ment, and that on an enterprise hard
ly begun. \ refinery would also buy
the cane by the ton, being able to pay
$3.50 to 50 per ton. This will be
better than wheat, as twelve tons per
acre can be raised. There is no bet.
