JUDGE SAMUEL LORD died on Thurs
day night Of last week, at his home in
Mantorville, IF consumption. This news
did not take us by surprise. We had
been expecting the death summons for
some time. On the afternoon of the day
of his death, the Judge remarked to his
friends: II have but few hours more
to live. I believe III God and future
existence, and would willingly go but for
my family. I have always tried 10 do
right and believe all is WE'LL" Yes, Gam.
Lord was good man, and we believe
Railways tried to do right" Our personal
knowledge of the man leads US to believe
this. He leaves family Of six children
without father or mother, his wife having
been buried about year ago. Judge
Lord was State Senator from Mower and
Dodge counties in 1866, 1867, 1870 and
1871, serving as chairman OF the judiciary
committee Of that body during three OF
those sessions. In 1871, he was elected
judge OF the 9th Judicial district for seven
years, and was reelected in November,
1873. He was a good lawyer, and his
public and private life above reproach.

JOHN c. ROBINSON, known as the light
ming proof-Ieader, was found dead in his
bed, in New York, the 18th inst. He was
q marvel in his way. Besides being a
lightning proofreader, he was wonderful
in declpherlng wretched manuscript.
He could read Gerrilt Smiths, Count
Pulaski's and Horace Qreeley's manu-
script almost at glance. He could rea /
Horace Greeley's manuscript, which was
VIGOROUSLY bad, better than Mr.. Greelev
himself. 1t often happened that Mr..
Greeley was unable to make out one of
his own sentences. After puzzllng over
it for short time he would say: "Ask
Robinson. He can tell you what it is"
During the canvass Of 1866, while MIR.
Greeley was away, an editorial was sent
to the night editor, purporting to come
from Mr.. Greeley. It was the night be-
tore election, and the article strongly
favored Republican, who was running
on an independent ticket. The article
was putin type, and in the proof reading
the manuscript fell under the old experts
(Robinson'S eye. "Thst's not the old
mans writing" said he. The other 7ri.
6une employees insisted that it was; Rob
inson insisted that it was not. Finally
Robinson was so in earnest about it, the
article was omitted from the paper
When Mr.. Greeley came home the manu-.
script was submitted to him. He thought
it was his work until he read the article,
and then disclaimed it on account OF the
sentiment, and not on account of the
handwriting. Robinson knew the G"old
mans" work better than he did himself
Greeley and Robinson were great friends

A Conspiracy OF Robbers.

The paper.makers Of this country have
taken advantage Of the late general
boom in prices, which for the most part
has been without sense or reason, topush
up the price on plain print paper at leas,
GO per cent. Other kinds have not gone
up quite as much. 1t is an arbitrary
raise, having but the slightest excuse in
necessity. 1t is simply conspiracy
among the paper men 10 rob those who
must use paper, and every man uses paper
who reads. 1t is clean cut, selfish robbery
The cost of making paper is but trifle
higher than it was six months ago.
Thore is a strong probability tha the
paper robbers will come to grief. A bill
has been introduced into congress 10
abolish the tariff on the chemicals that
are used IN paper making; and another
to put imported paper, which is now sub.
ject to heavy duty, on the free list If
Doth bills pass, our scoundrelly home
robbers will be put in competition with
the world, and that is all the people of
this country will ask.
In Canada there has been little or no
rise in paper during the last six months.
And there is no more cause tor rise here
than there. Paper which sells in Canada
for six cents, sells just this side the line
for ten. This is an actual tact, and shows
exactly how completely we are being rob-
bed here.
This time the extortioners have over
reached themselves. They have woke up
a crowd Of passengers that are able to
defend themselves, and have channels
through which to speak. The result will
be that instead Of being allowed to rob
at will, they will he put III competition
with the paper makers Of the world-as
they should be. This will put speedy
end to their villainous conspiracy.
The Minnesota press should speak out
on this question at once, and in clear
terms, and see to it that our representa-.
tives in both houses Of congress are made
to know the voice of the people on this
question.
