died here a few days ago, has been ad-
mitted to probate In the Baltimore

to be worth several millions dollars Ia
his large family about equally, he
places the sum of 100000 in the
hands of his executors to defend the
will in case of litigation. In this con
nection he says:

a Good Word for senator Nc MILAN

Editor Mouer County Transcript.
We are watching, in q quiet way, the sena'
torial contest as thus far developed. The
preferences of our citizens are somewhat va.
ried, yet I think the majority of them are
favorably inclined to the return of Mr.
Mcmillan. And why not? Arc there salient
| reasons why Mcmillan should not be his own
successor? We have failed to discover any of
| material weight in this cry for change. We
see that the Pioneer Press is waxing hot in the
! interest of Secretary Ramsey. claiming to re-
! feet the desire of the Republican party of the
state. In general, the Press is able and sound,
but at times. its stupidity or falsity in polti'
cal matters which are of interest to the party
| is most remarkable. Mainly through the In
huence of the Press, Minnesota was led to that
climax of folly-the support Of Window at
the Chicago Convention. No one who is at all
conversant with the facts of case can success
fully maintain that such support was in &C.
cordance with the wishes of the great bulk of
the party of the state. May not the Pioneer
Press mislead on the senatorial question at the
present time, and still claim to represent the
people as it did last June? Senator Mcmillan
has served the state and nation well and faith
fully, aud he occupies an influential position
in the U. S. Senate. To remove SENATOR at
the expiration Of the first term, unless there
be potent reas ons, Is the height of folly, for it
tends to rob his constituency of the benefit OF
| that experience which the first term gives,
and which always constitutes one Of the chief
qualifications of an influential senator.
Granted that Secretary Ramsey has the ex-
perence. He has had his share of public hon
ors, and, if he is reported correctly, is tired
and needs rest. Mcmillan is in his prime,
active, able, and ready to grasp with the ques-
tons of the day with vigor. We consider
that our legislators will best subserve the in
terest of the state by q reelection Of Senator
NJ, and we earnestly hope that such will be
the result. 5.
