General Mattocks INDICATED,

The case which had q hearing before
Judge Virgin last week, in which it was
sought by ]. Winslow Jones and another to
Dust General Charles P. Mattocks from the
Presidency of the Winslow Packing Com
pany, was one of the most remarkable ever
brought before the courts of this State.
Not that there have been no previous suits
in which the business capacity and integrity
of one of the parties have been attacked !;
but certainly there have been few of this
kind, The circumstances of which made them
so much surprise to the public. General
Mattocks had such reputation in this COM
munity and wherever he was known, that
an accusation of wrong conduct on his part,
struck like a shock, and it is just to say
that very few indeed believed him capable
Of what was charged by those who instlgated
these proceedings. On the other hand, his
accuser was one who had made repeated
failures under circumstances which had
caused him to be distrusted by those with
whom he had had business dealings.
Therefore it is not strange that there was
an intense interest, extending beyond this
city and this State, in the progress of the
hearing, which begun on Tuesday and ter
minated so suddenly and satisfactorily on
Saturday. Had the misconduct alleged been
clearly shown and proved it would have
affected seriously the standing and prospects
of General Mattocks. But day by day, as
the hearing progressed, his prosecutors and
prosecutors not only failed to make out their
case but revealed the real motive of the pro-
ceeding. As soon as the answer of General
Mattocks began to be submitted it was SO
direct, SO clear and SO complete that 1t over
whelmed the rickety structure of
the attack utterly. While the testi-
mony of the witnesses introduced by the
complainant failed to support the complaint,
that introduced by General Mattocks shat
tered 1t. When the respondent had got
through his presentation there was nothing
left of the case of the petitioner. He was
as completely and disasterously overthrown
as any litigant ever was.
So clear was it that the petition had no
evidence to sustain it that the distinguished
counsel acting for Mr.. Jones did not attempt
to make an argument in its support,
and gave the court no opportunity to
pronounce an opinion. As soon as the
evidence was in he made haste to withdraw
the business from the consideration of the
court and apparently thought it due to him
self to apologize for having had part in it,
on the ground that he was not aware of the
trufh nf tho Ynaftar
General Mattocks comes through this
ordeal with honor unimpaired and with
a testimony to his talent, energy and fidelity
in business matters which gives him au add
ed claim to the respect and confidence of the
community. In the food of light poured up
on the transactions of the Winslow Packing
Company, recent and antecedent, the person
whose motives and conduct are exposed to
just condemnation is Mr.. J. Winslow Jones'
To him is plainly applicable the story of
Haman hanged on the gallows he had erect
ed for Mordecai.

could not recover. We tried doctors and medicines
and although better at times she would grow worse
again. She was obliged to use the urinal as many
as fifteen times night, and was growing worse
daily. At this time my attention was called to
Hunts Remedy, and concluded to try it, and after
using one bottle she good deal better, the in
hammation was reduced, and water more natural.
She began to gain in appetite, and felt no pain in
the back and kidneys. She could attend to her
household work without pain, and this had been a
great burden to do, the lghtest kind of work.
After using six bottles she was completely cured.

The Premium Wheat at the State
Far.
The premium wheat at tue state fair Just
helS at 0Watonna was raised by Jacob
Hurley Of Ortonville, in Big Stone county,
Minnesota. 1t was a beautiful specimen of
the hard Scotch Fife, weighing sixty-three
pounds TO the bushel, and produced the
enormous quantity of three bushels from a
single quart. 1t was exhibited in both
grain and straw, and attracted more attsn-
ton than any other one thing on the ground.
The size of the kernels; the bright
stiff straw, the length Of the heads and its
enormous productiveness called forth ex-
pressions of surprise from all who saw it.
Col. John FL. Stevens, the veteran agricul-
turist, was particularly struck with il, and
pronounced it the finest half busheI OF
wheat be had ever seen exhibited at cur
fairs. 1t was the kind called the Sasket.
chewan Fife, a pure variety of the old
Scotch Fife, brought down from the Saskat-
chewan Valley, in Manitoba, six years ago,
and acctimated to our state. The original
seed has been much improved by careful Sc
lection and cultivation, and it is now I'M
questionably the most productive and lest
milling wheat in the world.
The Pioneer Press Company of st. Paul,
anxious to increase their subscription list,
and at the same time dissent ate so valu-
able a variety of seed, have purchased g
large quantity OF it direct from the propa-
gators, and now offer it as a premium on
their weekly. Any n seRding in a new
name at the regular price, accompanied by
the cash, viz. $1.15 for q years subscrip-
hen, will DC entitled to a quart Of the
wheat, which will be sent to any address, put
mp in a strong i've sack, and delivered at
the express Office in Minneapolis express
charges prepaid. As it sold LAST year at q
dollar q quart, this offer is exceedingly lib
eral, and will doubtless lead to q very large
accession to their subscription list.
