Messrs. Williams 81 Davidson, attorneys,
yesterday filed the papers in the district court
ina suit commenced by Henry S. Farchild,
the well known auctioneer, against John B.

city omnibus line. In his complaint Mr.
Fairchild alleges that on the 2Sth OF October,
1881, Dir. Cook engage ed him 10
sell that certain tract OF land
and the appurtenances thereon, situated on
Fourth street between Jackson and Sbley
streets, and occupied by the defendant, Cook,
as livery and omnibus stable, agreeing to pay
him for such service q commission of pa per
cent. upon the amount of the sale provided he
sold it for not less than $4,000, or found
purchaser who should buy it for at least that
sum.
Mr.. Fairchild in mis- complaint further al
leges that upon This argument he listed the
property in question in his real estate agency,
and used his best endeavor to find a pur-
chaser, aud that he did, on the LIST of Decem-
b+r, 1881, lind purchaser for the properly at
$4,000, but that defendant, Cook, refused to
make the sale at that amount.
Continuing, Mr.. Falrehiid further alleges
that on December 5, 1881, Mr. Cook again
authorized hin 10 sell the property for $2S.-
600, upon he same terms as to commission,
and that acting upon this authoTiz ,tion he
did, on the 25jh Of March following, find a
purchaser for the property at s27, C00-which
sum was accepted by Mr.. Cook thus emitting
Cook has refused and continues to refuse to

of that ward of all grades, ought to know by
this time that Mr.. Ringwald is per-
fectly powerless TO assist them,
His career of usefulness mas
passed, if it ever existed. A vote for him is a
vote to place cipher in the Council. Mr..
Smith will NOT use his public position for
private gain or to advance his private
interests. He will not seek committee
positions for the purpose Of obtain
ing "whack-up" commissions for pur-
chases of city supplies. His vote will not he
for sale to fire engine manufacturers or hose
cart vendors. In short, he will honestly icp-
resent the best interests OF his ward and The
whole city. The fact that SO good man con.
sents to serve the public in the council is a
subject of congratulation and his majority
should be five hundred at least.

Yesterday afternoon the Breckenridge divi-
sion and the Fergus Falls division were both
four or five hours late. Nearly all the emigrants

the Union depot for several days were shipped

ten cars heavily loaded, and the Others left IL
cars added to the two regular trains which left
at GAO and at s O'Clock. This cleared the depot
again, and Mr.. Bronson, the vlgilast secretary,
OF the new depot company VINO has charge
of the depot went to work and cleaned the
establishment from cellar TO garnet. The rail-
road company is suffering continued inconve-
nience from the water in the vicinity of st.

while travelling. A sleeping car with
twelve paper wheels, finely fin
ished, with twelve sections, upper and

ness and is prepared to take tie best OF care of
all who travel it. At st. James arrange

with breakfast, at the new dining hall, equal
TO anything that can be obtained at any hotel

people come over this road to the state for
the summer months and Mr. Teasedsle has
done good thing in explaining matters to
