Who IL to be Senator.

The Senatorial question is attract.
ing some attention, more perhaps in
st. Paul and the northern part of the
State than elsewhere. 1t has been
generally supposed there would be
little If any opposition to a re.elec.
ton Of Senator Mcmillan, who, IL
not brilliant man, or one skilled in
all the most effectual methods of
securing local advantages. has de.
veloped an honest and earnest re-
gard for the best interests of his
country and unswearving devotion to
to the principles of the Republican
party, and certainly there is no can.
didate named by the Press OF Friday
last, that would be any more credit.
able to the party and State than re.
election Of Senator Mcmillan. 1t Is
possible that Sanborn stumped the
First district with q view of looking
after his own chances for McAIillan's
boots. but il so it will do him little
good. There are too many men in
Southern Minnesota who remember
the abortive methods resorted to, TO
secure his election rs Senator in 1859,
when a prominent Democrat now,
but protested Republican then, was
his lieutenant in the scheme, and
there are those still living who re.
member the subsequent settlement
~ith the half breed Winnebago's in
Blue Earth county, in which he was
charged with having u finger, and we
apprehend that if the st. Paulites get
into muddle over the Senatorship,
Mr.. Sanborn will not be the choice of
Southern Minnesota. II Senator
Mcmillan is thrown out, no st. Paul
man should have the place unless
even-handed justice should return
Ex-senator Ramsey to the place he
once honored, and from which thous.
ands of good Republicans believe he
was unfairly excluded. If the citi-
zens OF the sanity Capitol wish to
fight they can do so, and possibly
some Southern Minnesota sinner may
take the persimmons.

bureau. 10 report upon grain, fruit and
meat products for benefit of produ.
GERS. Mr. Page urged that the board
should assist in the undertaking and
should appoint delegate to attend a
consultation to be held at Springfield
this winter. He asserted that grain
dealers are accurately informed Of
the quality and quantity of grain
crops before they come to market,
and argued that equal knowledge
would be OF great benefit to farmers.
One Of the members suggested that
farmers should be educated to tell the
truth about their crops. Others
spoke of the newspapers universally
overestimating the crops, and it was
claimed that every wheat crop in this
state for five years has been largely
overestimated. The subject was
finally referred to the committee on
agriculture.
On suggestion Of Mr.. Giles ID was
agreed to appoint committee to pre-
pare for the legislature report on
the labors Of the board since its or.
ganization, with recommendation of
legislation needed, and also to en-.
body in the report a review Of the
various committee reports made to
the board. from time to time. and
