The Davis and Fisher poisoning

The Davis and Fisher poisoning
case was before Judge Dickinson at
the recent term at st. James. Two
points were made on motion by de-
PENDANT. First: That among the
grand jury, two names were enrolled
without the proper initials. 1t was
claimed that this Initiated the indict-
ment. The motion was denied. 1t
was then alleged that Davis himself
had been called before the grand jury
70 give evidence in his own case. II
this were true, it would vitiate the
indictment. Evidence was submit.
ted, and the court holds the matter
under advisement. Pending this, the
case was adjourned to the 10th OF
February next.

The Returns In our State Elec'
tons.

There are some noticeable eccen-
tricities in the vote of this State, and
the margin of Republican strength
is large enough to admit of a little
caprice.
Pillsbury's majority is 1877; Gil.
mans 81, 554; Won Baumbach's %, 4S7
Kittleson's 2l,694; Starts 22,2l4.
Pillsbury is just 2.ll2 behind Gilman,
and 5000 behind the rest of the ticket.
Gilman is over 1000 behind the rest
of the State ticket. In fifty-one coun-
ties out of sixty-nine, Gilman runs
behind his ticket; and in ten counties
he runs ahead, and in eight others, Is
even. Rice runs 1000 ahead of his
brethren on the Democratic ticket.
Kttleson received 500 majority In
Olmstead county, the home of his
Democratic opponent, Mr.. Cowdrey,
and Mr.. Cowdrey received only 1877 all
told, in Freedom county, the home
of Mr.. Kittleson. The whole forms a
curious study of the whims of voters
of both parties. Satterlee, prohibition
candidate for Governor, received 1851
votes, and Meighen, Greenbacker, re-
ceived 1850 votes. The total vote Of
the State was nearly l20,O 900.

Judge Cox at New Ulm.

Judge Cox gave the Grand Jury at
New Ulm, at the opening of the court
on Tuesday last, 4 ringing charge on
morals generally. He charged them,
In strong terms, to look into the whole
matter Of selling liquor to minors.
That he himself had seen two youths
drunk upon the streets and in a shame
ful condition. He charged the grand
jury TO inquire into all such cases
with rigid fidelity, and if the jury
would do its duty, here was a court
ready and willing to try the cases.
The Judge was particularly vigorous
in his denunciatiOn of the preambu.
lating swindlers, who seduce farmers
into signing notes which are simply
frauds. He wants these rascals
brought to the bar of justice. Judge
Cox honors himself and the bench by
his trenchant charge to the jury, and
shows himself to be a faithful Gus.
todian of great public interests.

st. Paul's Business Boom-The
Rival Cities.

II was but yesterday that II seemed

struggle, that in the matter of down

Minneapolis was steadily and surely
getting away with st. Paul. But the
past season, favored by the good crops
and united effort among her bust.
ness men, st. Paul has created for
herself u positive new era of activity
and progress, and now bids fair to re-
gain her ancient ascendency. St.
Paul has quietly grasped for and
secured the great railroads, which, in
this age, are the chief factors in the
power Of u city. The summer closes
with several remarkable triumphs for
st. Paul. She has secured for her.

Pacific; her citizens have extended

it has become powerful trunk line;
she has established 4 great Lumber

she has stimulated her manufacturing
power, learning that steam is the Ger.
tain rival Of water rs IN economic
force; and she has greatly enlarged
her wholesale interests, which now
embrace the ample field of the whole
Northwest. She has too, the advan.
tage of powerful journals, which pre-
sent her daily image to every trading
centre in the great Northwestern
empire. What we had given up as
defeat, seems to turn, like Sheri'
dams battle of Winchester, into q
victory. In this contest for CONNER.
cial supremacy, we have no choice.
Both are noble cities, and both are
filled with men of courage, of broad
Western mould, who will make the
earth shake in the competing joust
But let this rivalry be maintained by
methods which are strictly honorable,
and the whole State will applaud the
noble emulation. Let neither possess
the spirit of Rome to an unhappy

Owatonna Rebels Against Rail-
roads.

The last Owatonna Journal con-
taines spirited account of a meeting
of the business men Of that city, who
have resolved to unite in a solid effort
to protect themselves against a rail-
road combination, which, it is alleg-
ed, has grown to such an extent as to
endanger the prosperity of that city.
\ large and enthusiastic meeting of
citizens was held, on Wednesday last,
committees were appointed, and steps
taken to organize Board of Trade.
Sixty of the business men have al.
ready signed pledge to ship only
over one road, until both will agree
to give fair rates. The Journal says:
For long time the business men
of 0watonna have submitted to a dis
elimination against them in freight
tariffs. The evil has become so great
as to threaten the ruin of the pros.
perity of the city, and the business
men have been absolutely goaded in.
to q determination to submit to it no
longer. 1t is not the tariff rates that
are complained of so much as the dis.
elimination against 0watonna. For
a series Of years both the Chicago,
Milwaukee and st. Paul, and the
Northwestern railroads have carried
wheat from their stations to the vi.
entity of 0watonna at 4 less rate than
from Owatonna. This has enabled
buyers of grain, at the stations near
us, to pay a higher price for wheat
and thus to draw from this city its
legitimate trade.

A Democratic Fraud Threaten

Though the Republicans carried
both branches of the Maine, by large
majorities, yet the Democrats having
control of the machinery of the State
government, propose to "bulldoze"
the election through, by throwing
out q certain number of Republican
Senators and giving the certificates,
on fiimsy pretexts, to enough Demo
Gratis to elect governor, who is to be
elected by the legislature on joint
ballot. If this partisan fraud should
be executed, it will arouse a feeling
Of indignation throughout the North
which will swell the Republican

Lake City Scorched,

Lake City, in this State, has been
badly scorched by a destructive fire
on last Monday. The fire originated
in the First National Bank block,
which it consumed, together with
seven other buildings. The total loss
is estimated at $4,000, and the in.
surance at $4,000. Among other
buildings, the Sentinel newspaper
was burned, but with commendable
spirit, the proprietor, II. d. Brown,
engaged another room before his office
had finished burning. The Red Wing
fire department were telegraphed for,
and went promptly to the assistance
of her neighbor. Mankato has the

Grant in Chicago-His Modesty

marvellous ovations since his return
from his tour of the world, took place
in Chicago. 1t was an bipartisan
demonstration for the greatest living
American soldier. Perhaps no man

with more modesty than this silent
man. Adulation, full of fulsome fiat.
terry, has been showered upon him;
but his saving common sense has pre-

His is the modesty of true greatness.
He made speech to his comrades of
the Army of the Tennessee, and the
sentiment of that speech was Ameri.
can Nationally; that was the golden
thread which permeated every
thought. Grant has the gift of com.
mon sense till 1t rises to genious. This
is the secret of his magnetizing pow.
