THE ELECTIONS.

In the recent state elections. the
Republicans have been generally sue.
cessful. In New York they elected
their candidates for State officers,
with probably ono exception, al
though the Democrats carried the
legislature. In Wisconsin, likewise.
they elected all but the candidate for
treasurer. and he may possibly pull
through, although it is probable the
Democratic candidate is elected.
In Virginia the Reajustive and Re-
publican coalition was successful.
electing all the State officers and Il
majority of the legislature, which
ensures the election Of 4 Reajnstive-
Republican to tho U. S. Senate, in
place of Mr.. johnson, (1emocrat)
whose term expires March 3d, 1888.
In our own State, the Republican
ticket is elected by the usual large
majority, Charlie Gilman running
somewhat ahead of his ticket. In
the county the voters paid the just
compliment due to faithful and ef-
ticient service, by re-el:cting F. c.
Field, Auditor; Z. Henderson. Treas
urer; E, S. Case, Register, and c. A.
Couillard, Attorney, without oppo-
sition. For the office Of Clerk Of the
District Court, there were two candi-
dates, C. E. Bullard and Asher Muir
ray. Mr.. Bullard was elected by 2S
majority. We have no doubt but
that Mr.. Bu]lard will perform the
duties of the Office to the satisfaction
of the public. We presume the du'

For the Office of Sheriff there were

SAD SHOOTING AFFAIR.

A sad accident occurred last Tues
day, the memory Of which will sadden
the hearts of two families as long as
they permitted to remain on earth.
The particulars of the case are as fol-
lows: John X, Miller, ono of our
most prominent business men, in COM
pany with Wm. Moore, Of the hard
ware firm of Tunstead & Moore. Min
neapolis, went out to Leaf River on
hunt, ana at which place they were
joined by L. J. Williams. About 4
o'clock in the afternoon Mr.. Williams
proposed that :hey kill a deer before
they return home and accordingly
they set about to that end. Miller
WAS to drive the thicket :nd Williams
aud Moore stationed themselves at a
point where they thought the deer
| would come out. Miller continued on
his drive and soon heard Il shot from
the direction in which he had left his
party. AS there were no other par
ties hunting near them, he thought it
me from the rifles of his friends.
Immediately after the shot he SAW
what he supposed to be q deer and
quickly raised his rifle and fred, but
instead Of being u deer the object, un-
fortunately, proved to be Mr.. Will
Jams. Mr.. Moore, thinking that John
might fire again. called to him to
come which he did, only find that his
shot had struck Mr.. williams and he
was bleeding to death. They took the
unfortunate man up and carried him
some distance when they thought best
to get the team. Moore remained and
built Il fire while Miller proceeded to
the house for the team. After they
had taken him to his home John start
to town for the doctor and drove the
twelve miles in an hour and aquarter.
About Is minute: arter Miller left for
town, Mr.. Williams breathed his last,
but before he died he said, in the
presence of Moore, that he laid no
blame to Miller, that it was an acci-
dent; he, Williams. had left his sta.
ton and as he wore buckskin jacket
one would very naturally be mistaken.
Miller WAS about 40 rods from him
when he shot.
The accident is deeply regretted as
both gentlemen are we'll known and
highly respected. MIR. Miller will re-
reiye the heartfelt sympathy of the
entire community, us will also Mr..
Williams family. The affair is too
sad to criticise, but it will be warn
ing to others in the future that they
cannot be too careful while hunting.
and especially in thick brush.
DR.. Cromett. who went out and ex-
amined the wound, says: The ball
entered on the back part of the thigh
in the upper third, passed forward,
inward and Il little upward, coming
out on the front part Of the thigh Il
little in the inner half Of the centre.
