The Battle Ended.

The hottest political battle ever
fought in Minnesota, and especially in
the First Congressional District, is
ended. The forces are ut rest, and
the contest decided. Every inch of
the vast territory extending from the
Mississippi river to the western
boundary of the State, has been fought
over inch by inch with desperation
wholly unprecedented, and which we
hope may never occur again. Every
species of warfare has been INDUCED
in that the ingenuity of man could
devise. 1t has been an extremely
personal and vituperative campaign
and should, for the good of all, sink
into past forgetfulness as speedily as
possible.

What the Minneapolis Tribune
says:
1t is flood! The eagles of vic.

James A. Garfield is president elect,
the United States senate is redeemed
from bourbon control, and ut the
present writing the returns indicate
the forty.seventh congress will be re.
publican by a satisfactory majority
ONO, the home of the republican
candidate, gives him the endorsement
of swinging majority of 10000

democratic leader, and New York

defeat which approaches, If it does
not reach humiliation. The victory
OF the loyal masses is so sweeping

stands to-day just in her convictions,

her strength. Slow to anger, not
easily reused, she saw the danger to
republican institutions, the disregard

rising as she rose in 81, she laid her
mailed hand upon myriad of evils,

Too Much Legislation.


The members of our next State
legislature are selected, and during
the interval that will elapse ere they
meet rs body, let them reflect upon
the above caption, and see IL it does
not contain a great deal Of food for
thought. There is too much legisla-
ton and too many legislators. One
half the number that are annually
elected could accomplish infinitely
more good, wise and practical work
than there is done ut present, besides
saving to the State in general, and
the tax payers in particular, large
amount of money. Look upon our
statute books to-day and mark the
innumerable number Of laws that
stand as dead letters. If we mistake
not the feeling of the people upon
this subject the legislator who will
first bring this matter to IN issue will
receive their thanks.

full termination the side you advocate.
This fact has been apparent to the
faction that opposed Dunnell since
they first inaugerated the warfare,
but the job they undertook proved so
much larger than they anticipated
that they fought harder at the close
to save their own reputation than for
anything else. We haven't any idea
that nine-tenths of the Ward men ever
conceived it possible to beat Dunnell,
but they were drawn into the fight
by degrees to such an extent that
they felt constrained to continue il
in order to appear sincere advocates
Of Ward. But they are beaten.
Dunnell has gained the victory, and
against the greatest odds that any
man ever had. The combined op,
position of the Democrats and antes
failed to accomplish their object,
and the old reliable First District,
will again be represented by a ster.
ling, stalwart Republican.

FIRST DISTRICT.


ldness and good feeling among
Dunnell men, and CONSERVATION
litter disappointment among the
d men, prevailed Wednesday
ming when the returns began to
in from various parts of the
trict. Every city, town, precinct.
DOL district and cross road in the
strict, sent in with ringing tones
majority for Dunnell. Blue Earth
county, the supposed headquarters of
the antics, gave the stalwart congress.
man Il handsome majority. Every
ward in MankatO gave Dunnell two
votes TO Wards one, and reversed
the usual order of things by giving
Garfield 81 majority, Il Republican
gain of about 1873 over any previous
year. Every county west of Blue
Earth, that was so overwhelmingly
Wardish, gave Dunnell an increased
majority of two years ago. Winnie.
bago City. the home of the chairman
OF the Ward campaign, gave Dunnell
a majority. Blue Earth City, with
all the hatred that its prominent citi-
zens have maintained against Dunnell
for years, gave Ward only % more
votes than Dunnell. Faribault
county in general, gave Dunnell a
good majority, after the Ward men
had interviewed every school direc-
tor and voter within it's precincts and
rs all supposed had fixed the county so
that Ward would surely have 1000
majority. FreebOrn county, the
home Of .'Bub" the wonderful, who
told more damable lies during the
campaign than he can Obliterate in
seven centuries. gave Dunnell q glor-
ions majority. Jackson county, the
breeding habitatiOn of Chamberlin,
the little buttercup of Western Min.
nesota, the originator of that terrible
Mass Convention of I persons, gives
Dunnell two votes to Wards one.
So all through the list, Waseca county
the home of Ward lets him down
safely with l26 majority. Dunnells
majority in the district will probably
amount to 5000 or 5000. Wherever
vituperation was depended upon for
influencing voters the result was ex.
actly opposite to the way intended.
1t is glorious victory worthy of the
noble yeomanry of the old reliable
First district.
