Homors are Easy.
TSt. Cloud Journal


Judging from outside expressions the
preference would appear to lie between
Gen. L. T. Hubbard, Of Red Wing, and
Col A. r. McGlll, the present State in
surance commissioner. Both have warm
personal friends here Gen. Hubbard has
been longest known, and is highly es-
teemed for his army record and his genial
personal qualities Col McGill has made
an admirable department officer, his
ability in his present line of duties having
received recognition even beyond the
limits of the State. AS between these
two, who are undoubtedly the most
prominent candidates actually engaged
in the canvass, it would be difficult, in
deed impossible, to tell on which side the
counties hereabouts might array them
selves. Any expression would be merely
to hazard a guess.

ONE of those sublime idiots whom
God, in his inscrutable wisdom permits
to edit the majority of the Republican
papers, expresses surprise that even the
Democratic papers of the country de.
nounce the assault upon the life of the
President in unmeasured terms. When
was it that the Democratic papers failed
to 0enounce crime in every form1 Are
they any less prompt in pointing out and
condemning wrong-doing than the Re-
publican papersl 1t almost surpasses be-
lief that any one should be so idiotic as to
imply that simple difference of political
opinion should cause any one to be

The Pi!lsJ,sry Game.
[Red Wing Republican. ]

The movement for fourth term for
Governor Pillsbury is as certain but not
as open as that of two years ago. In
fact, he is not to be entered or acknowl-
edged publicly as a candidate at all. The
word is, to quietly secure in all the coun-
ties as many lukewarm or complimentary
delegates as possible for the other can
didates, who will be ready to support
Pillsbury after short time In order to
prevent a choice before the time comes to
play the spontaneous game for fourth
term, the number of candidates is to be
increased at the start.

The Pioneer Press is trying to represent
that settlement of differences between
the State and the State prison contrac-
tors, made in 1878 by board of arbitra-
tors, of whom Ex-Governor Sibley was
the States representative, and General
Hubbard was the third man, and which
settlement drawn up by General Sibley
was signed by all, was mistake into
which Sibley and Hubbard were misled.
The same paper made similar charges in
1879, and on proof to the contrary took
them back, and SAID they were only idle
rumors which the Pioneer Press had pub
lshed only to secure their reputation, and
demanded thanks from the slandered
men for giving the chance to repute the
SANDERS. The reason it now Tevamps
The stories is that it cannot find anything
else against General Hubbard.

Notes of the River.

The Josie, of the Diamond 10 line, with
the experienced and popular Capt John
B. Davis on the roof, made the levee at
1870 yesterday forenoon, bringing in
good cabin passage and fair freight, and
left on her return at P. NJ, also well
patroniZed.
Upper Mississippi river captains should
commence disciplining themselves for
their season of trial and trlbulation, for
their old enemy, the sand bar, is near at
hand, the decline now amounting to five
inches daily, and the mark last evening
showed but seven feet in the channel
above low water mark.
The great Gem City, of the ST. Louis
& St. Paul line, got away about IL O'Clock
last night with some eighty passengers
and considerable freight for down river
points. She came in early in the evening
and landed 279 cabin and 3s deck passen-
gers, having for the trip from ST. Louis
to St. Paul registered 1877 cabin and l79
deck passengers and handled 2,213 pack
ages of freight. Prescott Bros band, of
st. Louis, were with the boat this trip,
and played admirably. The passengers
were highly delighted with the boat, and
at all 'long-shore landings the people
again came down to give Commo-
dore Davidson's new departure and great
success, the queen of northern waters,
hearty welcome. The boat came in this
time about six hours late, having lost
three hours in waiting for connections at
St. Louis and about the same time in
waiting at Rock Island for rapids pilot.
Commodore Dayidson's happiness over
the fine performance of his new boat
was manifest fact Col. Allen of the
Merchants visited the Commodore on his
boat and told him that he had had nice
ly framed and hungsa splendid picture of
the Gem City. He had placed it ON ex-
hibitlon in the Merchants corridor, along
side of Col. Aliens favorite picture of
the new court house. The Com
modore assured him he could never
have a picture of handsomer
boat, TO mate with his market house,
until he, the commodore, built and
brought out his next new boat, the mate
to the Gem City which will probably be
built during the coming winter.

Meteors and Aer0Iites,

A comparison of all the facts which
are known respecting shooting-stars, Diet
onating meteors and aerolites leads TO
the conclusion that they are all minute
bodies revolving like the comets in orbits
about the sun, and are encountered by
the earth in its orbital motion. The
visible path of aerolites is somewhat
nearer to the earth's surface than that
Of ordinary shoeting-stars, a result
which may be ascribed to their greater
density, which causes, therefore, greater
resistance.
These three classes of bodies exhibit
alternate periods of maximum and mini
mum abundance, and the times Of maxi
mum for the several classes correspond
somewhat with each other, indicating
that these bodies are collected in groups,
and the three classes of bodies are
grouped IN somewhat similar manner
The August meteors move in orbits
which require more than century &c
complete, and comprehend bodies differ
ing greatly in size and probably also in
density. Their magnitudes range from
comets whose diameter is perhaps 10O.-
QUO miles to minute atoms, which, in q
single second, are dissipated by the heat
resulting from their collision with our
atmosphere. Their density ranges from
that OF metallic iron to earthly bodies
having but feeble cohesion, which are
dissipated into fine dust by the heat of
collision with our atmosphere and it is
possible that the rarest of them NAV
consist of solid or liquid matter IN state
OF minute subdivision, like a cloud Of
dust or smoke.
The periodic meteors of November
probably comprehend bodies having an
equal range Of magnitude, and perhaps
also of densitf. PROF. Loonais.

Stage Coach Amnsemenis.

A lively writer in one of the Paris
journals describes the playful tricks with
which the occupants of omnibnsses while
away the tediousness Of long drive.
One will set the others all yawiling by
means of a series of yawns on his part.
Another viii secretly bring into the We
hicle small bag full Of vivacious snails,
which are furtively allowed tomahe their
way to the garments of the unsuspect-
ing passengers. The third joke is taking
the silver piece which is passed by lady
to be handed to the conductor, and in a
pretended fit of abstraction to carefully
insert it into the operators purse, from
which ii is released after some discussion
with an air Of incredulity that the claim
made by the owner is unfounded. Or
when a passenger of anything like sus-
picious aspect enters the omnibus one
will begin by staring very hard at him,
and then, when he is not looking, pull
out o notebook and pencil and take notes
of him with great nssiduity. The other
passengers straightway suppose That tho
note taker is detective, md that the
other individual is criminal of some
sort, the consequences being that he is
regarded with suspicion and repugnance
not only during the rest Of the journey,
but on any other occasion when he may
happen again to be ecountcred.
