Destroying the Elegant Residence of j.
b. Power-Loss $4,000 and Insurance
$4,000.
About II o'clock 1st night fire occurred,
which destroyed completely one of the pleas
ATTEST residences in st. Paul. Three or four
years ago Mr.. j. B. Power, land commissioner
of the st. Paul & Manitoba road, selected for
q residence beautiful location, on the pro-
jecting bluff, at the junction of Pleasant
and Oakland avenues, in the south
western part of the city. The grounds
are SO located that very extended and pic
turesque view is furnished of many miles up
and down the Mississippi river. 1t is very
doubtful if in the whole city OF ST. Paul
another location can be named that is, in all
respects equal to it. Upon this lovely spot
Mr.. Power erected very elegant residence,
with convenient out houses, and furnished it
with all that was desirable to render it de-
sirable home, At II O'Clock it took fire,
no one knows how, and in one hOur the
| residence was mass of smouldering ruins,
with three tall chimneys only standing as q
part Of the structure. The location of the
residence is SO far from the water supply that
the fire department could do nothing what
ever to save 1t from total and complete de-
struction. Mr.. Power says that when the fire
| occurred the members of his family had retired
| to bed and were sound asleep He saw slight
reflection of light as he lay in bed, aud think.
| ing 1t unusual got I'D and looked
out of the window, when he saw from the
| light on the barn thst it must be that his
house was on fire. He aroused his family as
soon as possible, and succeeded in getting
them all out and to place Of safety. The
house speedily filled with smoke, and the
| flames SO completely enveloped it that none OF
| the contents were saved except a little OF the
furniture of one of the parlors. Ali the rest
was DESTROYED and swept out of existence.
The house was valued at $4,000, and the
| furniture at $1,000. Mr.. Power could not
state last evening what the insurance is, but
he thought it was about 49, 900, some portion
| of which was in the Fire & Marine Insurance
company of st. Paul. 1t was just two years
ago last Thanksgiving day that he moved
into the house. 1t was dismal scene when
he and his family were turned out at mid
night, last night, in the snow, with the ruins
of their beautiful home added to the distress
ing scene.

Afternoon Session.


After waiting until quarter past O'Clock
to secure quorum.
Counselor Arctander opened the case in de-
fence of the respondent, by referring to the
fact now apparent, of the lack of interest as
shown by the nom at tendance of senator's.
some of them having been in attendance but
a few days; Others more, and none in con-
slant attendance, and several not at all. Or
the character of the witnesses called for de-
leuce, viz, % lawyers, 10 saloon keepers,
cattle dealers, and the balance farmers (as
stated by Counselor Collins), they would cef-
tainly compare favorably with those called for
by the prosecution. Counsel said there were
70 lawyers, 81 of whom resided in Judge Cox 8
district, and strange to say, the majority of
tue bar were friends of his honor, an evidence
Of Cox's fitness for the position being in their
judgment, sober and incorruptlble. The
tabular statement for the defense shows the
following trades and professions, viz. % law
yers, s sheriffS and deputy sheriffs, clerks OF
courts, 6 saloon keepers, IA merchants, IL
farmers, 9 county officers, other than sheriffs,
5 hotel keepers and clerks, Q priests, doctor,
cattle dealers, 4 mechanics, 2 ministers, in
surance agent, 2 butchers, banker, 1barber,
livery stable keeper and the remainder un-
classified in all, 113.
The speaker sarcastically alluded to the over
anxiety of the three lawyers, viz: Wdllin,
Ladd and Weber to bIacken the
character of the respondent, in their desire to
succeed to the judgeship in case of Cox's re-
moval, whose testimony if eliminated from
most of the cases, and there will not be peg
left to hang an argument on. An assertion,
that witnesses on part of respondent are or
have been brlbed, is simply ridiculous, when
it is notorious fact that respondent is as poor
as Job, not having dollar in the world.
Even counsel have volunteered their services
without hope of money consideration, while
on the other side, leading men of the state and
politicians appear to have SEINE Interior OBJ
ject in this unholy prosecution. The fact that
respondent has decided cases against witnesses
or stopped at one hotel and driven to another,
or had reproved parties In open court or ad-
vised prosecution, ETC. ETC., may have had its
effect.
Taking up the Waseca term of court, great
weight must be attached to the eyi.

III aNCOCK IND TIE CAMPAIGN OF
1880
The Sandusky Register has this to say
Of General Hancock:

Ht OdHuusky neytSteT HAS tHlS 10 Say
Of General Hancock:
General Hancock is in active training for
the Democratic nomination IN 1884. If we
are to have Democratic President why not
Hancock as well as any other man. He was
a brave soldier, and that is to his credit even
if he is q Democrat.
The fact that the Register is Stalwart
Republican organ makes It's utterances
significant as indicating the drift of pub
lie sentiment in regard to the treatment
Gen. Hancock received in the presiden-
tial campaign of 1880. The malic-
ious Misrepresentation of his military
career and his we'll known
views on questions of State economy,
are beginning to react on the men who
made them and the party that encour-
aged and proited by the infamv No
man stands higher in the confidence and
respect of the American people to-day,
than the great soldier who led the con-
servative political forces of the country
in the campaign of 1880.
Were the presidential election to take
place Tomorrow, Gen. Hancock would
sweep the country against any man that
could be placed in the field against him.
The campaign ISLANDERS uttered by the
disreputable Galena minister in 1880,
have spent their force; and the qualified
and doubtless preconcerted-denial
given his lying statements by
General Grant, have produced
results least expected by the political
conspirators. The sentiment voiced by
the Register exists in every hamlet IN the
land, and the results of the coming fall
elections will demonstrate that the people
OF the country, when thoroughly aroused
to the importance of the vital issues in
volved, will prove themselves superior to
the political machine that has domin.
ated the local and national politics of the
country for the last twenty years.
The position taken by the Register,
however, is doubly significant when
taken in connection with the tone of the
Republican press of that State on the
nomination of ex-senator Conkling for
Associate Justice of the Supreme Court.
The Registers implied condemnation of
the disreputable methods resorted to in
the campaign of 1880, is mild when
compared with the criticisms on Presi-
dent Arthur's scheme to galvanize
Conkling into political life and respect
ability, by securing for him the endorse
ment of the Senate for position it was
well known before hand he would not
accept. The Cleveland Herald, one of
