The dangers which bcset the "machlne"
politicians, are apparent in the Notifying
spectacle of the vice president of the
United States loafng around the legislative
halls, street corners, and hotel corridors at
Albany, lobbying for the reelection of the
New York "boss." On the other hand
there comes the ex president of the nation,
the ex genera. of the armies, he too comes
to aid in saving the fallen chieftain, and
will prostitute his we'll earned glory, fame
and honor, that the machine may live to
rule and curse the people whe once loved,
respected and honored him. This humili-
ating picture is completed by Conkling;
q man of marked talents and wonderful
abilities, Il statesman and a gifted DICTATOR,
standing before horde of ward politicians,
cringing and craving for vlndication(? p
at their hands, fighting for an endorse

Our politics need reform; when men that
have held and now hold the highest posi-.
tons within the gift of the people, descend
to the low depths of political jobbing, for
no other purpose than that a few promi
nent aad INSCRIPTIONS men, their associa
ties, may continue a systematic traffic in
public appointments. The whole issue re
solves itself into question of patronage,
the sole power heretofore controlled by the
machine" and without which, this foul
element in American politics, is doomed to
a speedy destruction.

Among the prominent names of candi-
dates for guhcrnatorial honors is that of
Gen. l.. F. Hubbard Of Rel Wing, whose

readers, especially those who were formerly
residents of Gootlhuc county. Gen, Hub.
bard has many friends here, who will
gladly do all in their powerto forward his
interests, and should he succeed in win.
ming the nomination, there are large
number boil, democrats and republicans
who would give him an earnest support.
Few of the candidates for the position are
more favorably mentioned than is Gen.
Hubbard, and there are none who possess
more eminent qualifications. His name
has been spoken of with much respect,
and there are none but acknowledge that
lie is thoroughly fitted for the position. 1t
is probable that southern Minnesota will
insist on naming the candidate, and while
there are many good and true men in that
section from whom to chose, there are none
among them who would give more entire
satisfaction to the people of this vicinity
than would Gen. Hubbard.

Much interest has centered in the contest
al Albany, and the result of Tuesdays bat
tie was looked forward to with no little
anxiety. The result of the first ballot was
q surprise, as it showed stalwart weak
ness that marks the end of the political
career of Conkling. In speaking of the
first ballot the Pioneer Press says, editori
ally:
''Of course 20 choice was reached, and
the house will meet in joint convention to-
day to resume the battle. The first ballot
has o good deal that is suggestive in it.
The Conkiing men showed their hand, and
it was pitiful small one. Conkling had
twenty six votes in the house and nine in
the senate. Plat had twenty seven votes
in the house and eight in the senate. Thir.
ty-five votes is all that either of the anti
administration candidates could muster out
of 105 republican members of the legisIa
ture. The democrats seem to have voted
solidly for their caucus candidates, Herman
and Jacobs. In the house there were fifty
three anti Conkling votes upon the Conk-
ling ballot and fifty-nine upon the Piatt
ballot. The vote as a whole defies close
analysis
