The NEW YORK CONTEST.


There is little dependence to be placed
upon the reports and speculations that come
to the press relative to the campaign in New
York. There is but one thing certain, and
that is nobody knows the strength of either
of the parties to the present contest. There
are two unknown quantities in the campaign,
which will continue to be unknown up to the
day of election-the strength of the Kelly
faction of the Democratic party and the e1-
tent of the Independent Republican bolt.
The supporters of Kelly speak very conf
IDENTIFY of his prospects. While they started
in with the claim of only sixty thousand
votes for their candidate, they now express
the belief that he will receive not less than
three times that number. Their calcula.
tions, however. seem to be based on wholly
insufficient data. It is true he has
had some large and enthusiastic
meetings throughout the State, but
the attendants were composed mainly of
those who went from curiosity, and of Re-
publicans who chose to create the impress
sion that he was formidable rival of Rob-
inson. These latter people applauded the
Tammany chief loudly, but when election
day comes they will vote the straight Re.
publican ticket with their accustomed regu-
larity. The New York meetings in the Kel-
ly interest were of course large and noisy.
There is no doubt but he will poll large
vote in that city and Brooklyn.
The strength of the independent Repub-
Leans cannot be ascertained. For the most
part they are working quietly, but appear to
be working effectively. They are equally
opposed to Cornell and Kelly, and will vote
for Robinson without much ostentation. A
few of the independent papers claim that
tfis detection from the Republican ranks
will more than counterbalance the effect of
the Kelly split in the Democratic party.
How near right they are we will not under
take to say.
Robinson's forces appear to be working
we'll and are confident of victory. But little
public speaking 10 being done, but a
thorough organization has been effected in
every town in the State. The newspaper
organs of the party are doing splendid SER
vice, and are ably seconded by the indie
pendent press who advocate the scratching
process. But five working days remain be-
fore the day which will decide the fate of the
parties, and we may expect to see much
activity throughout that State-the theater
of the conflict which will probably decide
which party shall rule the country for the
next four years. We can only hope for the
best. The signs are pIopitious, but not
sufficiently good to base entire confidence
upon. We trust that nothing will be lei t
undone which will contribute to the success 8
IF the party of good government.

THE BRAINERD POSTM dSTER.
Sherwo ID Is Sentenced to a Fine of $181
and Imprisonment in Jail for Six


Sherwo ID is Sentenced to a Fine of $751;
and Imprisonment in Jail for Six
Months.
Yesterday morning Judge Nelson rendered his de-
cison in R. v. 8. Sherwood's the motion for
arrest of judgment. As is known the motion was
argued week ago, G. D. O'Brien for defendant and
W. W. Billson for the prosecution. On the opening
Of court only few we're III attendance. Sherwood
and counsel present, we'll as District Attor-
ney Billson -.......
The court briefly reviewed the argument Of coun-
Sc! III the case. In coming to . decision Judge
N eleon held that finding on one count of All in
dictment only carried " tn it an acquittal of the
on one count of an indictment only charging y
crime of which the other counts alleged in greater
or less degree, was not inconsistent verdict. As
in this case the accused was found on the fourth
$l8l, while the first csunt charg ID
him with an embezzlement of 81 600, of which
$l8l was . part. In other words, the accused was
convicted Of embezzling $l8l and not $4,000. Hold
ing TO this view Sherwood was arraigued for SEN
tenca, which was imposed 10 the extent of fine Of
$i8l, the law requires that fine to the amount of
the funds embezzled, and impriso ment for six
months in the Ramsey county Jail. The imposition
of the sentence of course, disposed of the mo ion
for arrest OF judgment, and well of the motion
for Lew trial tits understood, in fact notice of
the fact gi en-, that the Will be taken up on
a writ of error. However, this will consume several
months as the bill of exceptions will have to be
signed Ivy Judge Nelson, and as there il circuit
Associate Justice Miller. More than likely this
course of procedure will be abandoned, and Sher-
woods pardon will be sought. The light degree of
punishment imposed. together WI h the belief that
some other than Sherwood II guilty, . person near
to him for whom Sherwood has sacrificed, may So
cure executive clernency.

IT is probable that both of the national
conventions will be held in Chicago next
year. Prominent Democrats of that city
have agreed to furnish a hall of sufficient
capacity for the Democratic convention, and
raise fund of twenty thousand dollars for
the incidental expenses of the pow-wow.
The Republicans offer equally liberal induce
ments to the convention of that party, and
1t is reported that the members of both
committees are inclined to accept the offers.
No city in the country has better facilities
for the accommodation of the large crowds
that will flock to these gatherings. The
hotels of Chicago are commodious, centrally
located, and in every way first class, while
the city is easy of access fir I'M every section.
We trust that both assemblies will be held
there. There will certainly be no question
about the location if the convenience of the
public is taken into consideration.

ONE WEEK.

One week from to-day the people of Min
nesota will be called upon to determine
whether they wish to continue the ring rule
for the third term. Gov. Pillsbury has
forced himself upon his party for the third
term, and it remains to be seen whether
they will tamely submit. His own political
frienls declare that he was foisted upon the
party by the most corrupt and disgracefu]
means ever resorted to in a State which is
noted for its rascally politicians. His election
will endorse the nefarious practices by which
his nomination was secured and will breathe
new life into the ring, which rules the party
to the exclusion of every one not subserv-
lent to the knights of the charmed circle.
There never has been such an opportunit,
presented to the Independent Republicans tc
break the chains which bind them. Moth.
ing of national politics is at stake, and they
can if they will, rebuke the "third term
movement without damage to their party
In fact the defeat of Pillsbury would make
the Republican party in Minnesota stronge,
than before, for it would relieve it of ring
which is riding it to it's death.
All of the better elements of the Repub
lican party revolt against the little caba
which assumes to own and control all of the
positions in the gift of the people. A gan@
who only deem it necessary to buy nomi
nation and rely upon party loyalty to ratify
the purchase. The Republicans can enc
this rule by defeating its third term repre-.
sentative-John S. Pillsbury.
Every one knows that whatever the result
this year, the electoral vote of Minnesota
will 60 to the Republican nominee il
1880. 1t will simply be a question
of majority, consequently the op.
portunity is now offered to repudiate the
third term and all that it implies, without
impairing the real strength of the party.

GARFIELD seems to be ahead thus far in
the race. for the Senatorship from Ohio
Messrs. Taft, Dennison, and Matthews
are each striving for it, and each relies on
the fact that Garfield is too notable man in
the House to be spared. He ought to con-
slider the fact that it is better to be whale
among little fishes than little fish among
whales. Dawes was prominent figure in
the House, but since his elevation to the
Senate has almost disappeared from view.
This may be Garfeld's fate. At any rate he
shonld consider the matter we'll before TAX

The King of TraInps I.

The GLOBE few days ago mentioned that q
man named Robert Nolan was found on the
streets in commissions and taken to The city
hospital. Unawares, the city authorities pro-
vided for the king of tramps. Nolan was put
to bed, but before disrobed and hi. royal
garments searched. Among his effects was
u diary, in which was written in a copy plat.
Spencerian hand, an account of routes to
travel, people to visit etc. St. Paul was
blocked or plated off in districts, and the
"Godly people, were given by the number of
their residences. Fort street was numbered
from one end to the other, aud so was
Exchange street. The House of the
G.od Shepherd was scored with a r. mark,
as an asylum where charity in cold victuals was
bountiful. Besides this survey of st. Paul,
Nolan was provided with a map of the State
His diary was made out in the form of direc-
tions. and is evidently to be given out as a
guide-book, carrying with it the import of
command. Nolan will hardly have an oppor-
tunity again to indulge his away. He is q
very sick man; he has recovered conscious
ness, but seems to have lost the faculty of
speech. Whisky is the cause of his illness.

IT is just as we'll to apply little reason to
the lamentab'e death of Henry Schaber. He
was crossing the railroad tracks and saw a
train coming. To avoid that he stepped
upon another track and was killed bv an
other engine. A fagman would not have
prevented his walking across the tracks.
Flagmen never do more than warn persons
on foot. They do not forcibly halt Them
Schaber had warning by seeing one train,
which was tstter than any warning which
could have been given him at second
band. He made his fatal mistake in not no.
ticing his second peril. It is not likely that
he would have halted for fagman, when
the sight of train did not stop him. In
stead of abusing the railroad company the
proper way is to profit by experience and
have the track bridged, both at the point

as has Mr.. Childs in the columns of the
