- Prof Wickersheimer the celebrated tax
idermist attached to the Anatomical Muse
um of Berlin, has just discovered liquid,
which injected into the veins of dead meat,
not only preserves it for several weeks from
decay, but keeps it perfectly fresh and in
possession of its natural flavor. Having
treated slaughtered calf with his new prepa
ration, and subsequently, caused it to be ex-
posed for fortnight to the air and weather
changes. hanging in the open front of a
butchers shop, he invited a select party of
scientific celebrities to partake of the meat
thus tested, providing for them, however,
other viands in case the prepared veal should
fail to suit their palates. The professors
guests, however, found his piece de resistance
so toothsome and delicate that they confined
their attentions to it exclusively, neglecting
all the other solid items in his menu.

AN INTERESTING LETTEB.-A spirit of
gratitude prompts me to address brief note
of thanks. Three months ago I returned
from Mobile, Ala, and was Immediately at
tackled with what is known as Sciatic Rheu-
matism. employed three physicians in
succession, giving each one ample time to
afford relief if it had been in his power. 1
was not materially benefited by their SER
vices and was beginning to despair, when
friend who had experienced the effects of st.
Jacobs Oil advised me to give it a trial. I
refused, because / did not think Rheuma-
tism could be cured by outward application.
Insisting upon a trial of it he sent me two
bottles. Unable to meet his kindness by fur
Their refusal had the remedy applied to the
parts affected. My case was 30 severe that
after few applications I scarcely seemed
to be benefited, but before the first bottle had
been used up / began to be relieved of the
painful lsmeness in my hip and knee, and
when the second bottle was out could dress
myself and walk about. l continued to use
it, and am now able to 60 down to my Office
and attend to business. Should persons af
ficted as I was desire stronger testimonial,
l shall tell them if they call upon me, to
give st. Jacobs Oil fair trial; and I now
feel as though could assure them the same
grateful and speedy relief that have exper-
fenced. WESLEY S1ssoN, Atty at Law,

THE MINE ELECTION.

The annual election for State officers takes
place in Maine to-day. The canvass has
been one of the most animated in the history
of the State, and fer more than the usual
amount of acrimony has been manifested on
both sides. The Democrats and Greenback-
ers united in the nomination of State officers
and Congressman, Gen. Harry NJ. Plaisted,
a former Republican and brave soldier dur.
ing the war, having been placed in the field
as candidate for governor. He is opposed
by the present incumbent of the Office, Dan
lei F. Davis. In the early stages of the can
vass the prospects were exceedingly favor
able for the fusion candidates To-day there
is not as good showing. Alarmed by the
progress of Democratic ideas the Republi-
cans have been sending men and money in
TO the State for month past, and have, it
must be acknowledged, accomplished effect
i've work.
There is little, in reality, at stake in the
Maine election. The State is and has been
Republican ever SINGS that party was formed.
Two years ago, by sheer accident, Demo-
crat was elected governor and two Green
hackers were chosen to Congress. The con-
test of year since over the legislature has
played but small part in the pending strug-
gle. Both parties claim to have been right
in that emergency, but both are willing to
pass the controversy over without dispute at
the present time, as the questions involved
would create new issues in the national cam
paign.

THE DUNNELL LIES.

What is Claimed for Hts Meetings and
That They Really Are.
To the Editor of the Globe.
As some of the papers of this district are
publishing lying reports of the size and en-
thusiasm of the meetings in this section,
which have been addressed by Mr.. Dunnell
recently, wish to say that the writer was
present at this place when Mr.. Dunnell
spoke here. There were present here pre-
cisely 1876 persons, including the speaker and
children in their mothers arms. The voters
present consisted of about one-third Dunnell
and two thirds anti unnell. And to swell
the Dunnell ranks, they were compelled to
import several postmasters and census
enumerators from the adjoining towns.
At DunnelIs meeting at Pipestone City,
but six Dunnen men we're present in whole
number of seventy five, the balance were
thirty five Democrats and thitty-four Ward
men.
AtLake Crystal there was reported to be
great turnout of the people and extra trains
on the railroads. As matter of fact, 1t is
easily demonstrated that the extra trains
consisted OF hand car containing six men,
and no more, and five of those were Demo
Gratis. To such lengths are the lying Dun
nell papers brought. "ELBA."

TOte For the Best Nan.

Minneapolis Herald-Ind
Gen. Sibley, the Democratic nominee for
Congress for the Third district of Minnesota
is a gentleman of whom it can truly be
said as of the Chevalier Bayard, "Sans peur
ct sans reproche." Having been one of the
earliest settlers in this part of the country
when what is now known as Minnesota,
was almost unknown to the white man
his record has been before all who have
made this State their home, for nearly half
century. No man can say aught against the
fidelity, honor or integrity of Gen. Sibley.
He is true as steel and the very soul of honor.
If the people of this district, irrespective of
party, do not elect this we'll deserving gen.
tleman to represent them in Congress it will
be that they dare not place the man above
the party. 1t is time to vote for men, ire
spective of politics or religion. We want
good men to fill our Offices, private or pub.
lie. Whenever an election occurs in which
the people can have the power to say by
their vote whether they will have an able,
spotless man to represent them, or man
whose reputation is in the least doubtful,
there should be no hesitation in the matter.
We trust and hope that our people will for
get local pride and sectional jealousies and
vote for the best man, first, last and all the
time they are allowed to do 80.

Winona Democrat.

"
Mr.. Wells has been a resident of Southern
Minnesota for nearly quarter of a century.
He is an honest gentleman, and 8 lawyer of
marked ability who has acquired a large
practice in Fillmore, Houston and Mower
counties. He is candidate the people of
this district may well feel proud to support
for Congressional honors, and who if elected
will represent them impartially. The peo-
pie of this district have long felt that their
member of Congress was pretectionist
whose every vote in Congress upon free trade
was inimical to the interests of his constit-
uents. They realize that he has been the adj
vocate of great corporations and monopo-
lists. They understand that large sums of
money are to be used to secure his re-elec-
ton, that he may continue in Congress as
the apologist and defender of the protected
interests of Eastern corporations. The peo
pie of this district will never have a better
opportunity than at the coming election to
repudiate Mr.. Dunneu, who is no longer en-
titled to your sutfrages, and vote for Henry
Il. Wells, gentleman who will honestly and
faithfully represent your interests in Con-
gresS.

Did Themselves Proud.

Lof1onOPoC OO1Itoi HUT
The Third district Democratic Congress-
ional convention which met in Minneapolis
Tuesday, did themselves proud when they
placed in nomination as their candidate for
Congress, Gen. d. 81. Sibley. And that the
result will be a thorough unity of the party
in that district, which has not always been
the case, may be set down as a certainty. For
of all men in the State who is calculated to
give tone to canvass as candidate at the
head of the ticket, Gen. Sibley stands
pre- eminert. He has always been one of
our most upright and honorable citizens, and
one that would do the people of our State
great benefit to honor as representative in
Congress.

There seems every probability that Mime

to Congress three Democratic Senators. Let
this noble Third district spew out Wash
burn, the briber and legislative fraud, and

been partisan solely. He was not the peo-
ple's choice two years ago. Vote for Sibley.

MANKATO.

The Hancock and English club of this city
met Friday night at its headquarters Con-
siderable business of Importance was tran.
sacted, after which the club was addressed by
p. A. Foster Esq, an attorney of this city.
Mr.. Foster, although ayoung man, is one
who has always taken great interest in po-
litical matters. He spoke from the stand
point of one who, previous to the year 1872
enlisted his sympathies with the Republican
party, bu. left it at that time with the mil
lion others who got out of the Republican
party because they could no longer respect
themselves and remain in it, and because
that party refused to punish the fragrant
wrongs committed in its name and by its
adherents.
Mr.. T. b. Hitchcock, who had also been
invited to speak, addressed letter to the
president of the club, stating his inability to
speak, but endorsing in the most positive
terms the Democratic nominees. MIR.
Hitchcock has been man of prominence in
the Republican party. For years he was the
editor of the leading Republican paper in
st. Lawrence county. N. Y.
Mr.. L. ID. Francis, of Vernon Centre, be-
ing in the room, was called out and in few
brief remarks planted himself squarely upon
the Hancock and English platform. Mr..
Francis was great admirer of Horace Gree
ley and remembers him with great deal of
reverence, and the manner in which the Re-
publican party treated Mr.. Greeley, Charles
Sumner and other men of like sentiments, is
to him enough to cut off all respect for that
party.
The BOARD of county commissioners were
in session at this city several days this week,
the principal business being to amend con-
tracts for certain road improvements Ia va
rious parts of the county. The grading to
the approachs to bridge in Butternut val
ley was awarded to r. H. and Byron Hughes,
at 1920, the bids ranging from that sum to
$3.50. For stone culvert in the same town,
to Gabriel Lloyd, at $9S9-the highest bid
being 1926; and for building piers for a
new iron bridge at Jones' ford, to Williams,
Mccall & Co., at $2,172-$4 500 being the
highest bid. Blue Earth has expended over
100000 in wooden and iron bridges, and is
probably better supplied than most of the
older counties in the State.
Mark 81. Dunnsll is to deliver the address
before the Agricultural society Of this coun-
ty next week, when 1t is expected that he
will enlighten the public upon that branch
of agriculture to the study and practice of
which he has devoted the past ten years
the farming out of federal offices of this
district.
