ing, passed to the discussion Of the,

cured, JET the act OF felony was complete
when the murderer had finished with big

corning the handling of the present
crop, and to come to some agreement
relative to prices at competing points.
It is stated that the prices agreed up.
on were as follows: Wheat is to be
purchased at Milwaukee prices, less
the freight. Barley was as follows:
No. 3, so cents; No. 4, As cents;l Nos,
IS cents. No price was agreed upon
for No. 2 barley. Independent buyers
are practically excluded from the mar

him. The laws should be so amended
that the State could take a hand in

We do not believe that the above was

as one of Mr.. Dunnell's self.constitut.

it is not a very difficult task to place
its authorship. Mr.. Dunnell has

come.
There are five candidates in the
field, viz: B. F. Webber, of New Ulm;
H. D. Baldwin, of Redwood Falls;
Sumner Ladd, NJ. G. Hanscome and G.
S. Ives, of St. Peter. Mr.. Baldwin now
holds the position by appointment,
which, however, was brought about
by Influences from outside of the dis
drict, and against the circumstances
of nine-tenths of the Republicans
within the district, and his position
will therefor avail him but little in
furthering his nomination.
The district is composed of the coun.
ties of Brown, Nicollet, Lyon, Lincoln
Renville and Redwood. The first two
and the la st have already elected their
delegates, as follows:
BRowN-A. Blanchard S. D. Peter.

son, G. L. Byram, John Whittel,
Thos. Sloan and L. S. Crandall. The
latter are uninstructed, but supposed
to be friendly to 'Webber.
Renville county, with 9 votes, elects
delegates tomorrow. Lyon, with 6
votes, and. Lincoln, with S, elect next
Saturday.
In Lyon county, Weber has carried
the primaries in Marshall by a vote of.
40 to 10, and he will carry Tracy and the
country towns in the same proportion.
He has also carried Lake Benton, and
we have assurances that Lincoln coun.
ty will send solid Webber delega-
ton. which, with the 10 votes Of.
Brown (conceding Redwood to Bald.
why, will give him 81 votes, being only
three votes less than a majority. Rem.
vile county is conceded to no man.
Mr.. Weber has carried the primaries
in Bird Island and several other towns,
and he has good prospects Of carrying
the county. We make the prediction,
that Mr.. Webber will receive more
than enough votes from Renville
county to give him the nomination on
the first formal ballot.
