4 RrRD TIE HIND.

Judge Jonathan Dixon of the Supreme
Court of New Jersey is prudent man, II
not wise one. The Republicans, after
faithful and thorough search could find
no ole willing to accept a nomination, SO
they took up Judge Dixon. The Judge re-
luctantly agreed to occupy the place OF
campaign fgure-head. In his letter of
acceptance, however, the Judge
serves notice upon his party
that he viii not resign his
Judgeship until the result of the election
IS known. This is an announcement II
the most positive form that the Judge has
no idea chat he can he elected Governor.
He has no faith III the success of his party.
He is not patriotic enough to throw away
the bird in his hand and take the chances
of getting the one in the bush. The Judge
is, indeed, a prudent man.
So also is the Hon. Mr.. Robinson, the
Republican candidate for Governor OF
Massachusetts. He is a member of con-
gress, but he, emulating the example OF
Judge Dixon, will not resign his seat, IN
ii! after the election transpires. Mr.. Rob-
inson is as prudent and sagacious as his
fellow sufferer over in New Jersey.
After election, neither gentleman will
resign. There will be no occasion. The
reason why these gentlemen are leading
the forlorn- hopes in their respective states
is the patent one that the men out OF
Office will not spend the time or money
that a candidacy involves. These
positions were rendered to man after
man, but were promptly declined
It is not surprising that Republican gen,
tleman have ne relish fer defeat, and it is
not surprising, either, that they have nc
inclination to serve their party when
there are no loaves and fishes in pros
pect. The cohesion of the spoils has kept
the ''grand old party" in power for long
years after it ceased to have any useful
ness whatever. The eyes of the people are
now opened. They have decreed that The
Republican party must go. Its days Of
false pretenses and humbugging are mum
bered. The extravagant and rapaciou'
tax eaters have at last worn out the pa
tience and tolerance of a long suffering
people.

The Federal Grand Jury.

The grand jury of the fall term of the
United States district court, met at ten
o'clock yesterday morning, their names be-
ing as heretofore given in these columns.
Judge Nelson presided,' and after calling
the roster, he proceeded to deliver his
charge which was quite exhaustive and
able. After delivering the usual statutory
instructions the court called especial at
tention to the important matters to come
before them for investigation. Especial
emphasis was called to the
crime of counterfeiting, which
he said was not only henious crime
against the government, but particular
hardship on the poor man, who usually
proved the sufferer. The court also direct
ed the attention of the jury to the at
tempts to defraud the government by pre-
mpting timber lands, and their attention
was called to the pension fraud cases, all
of which he advised them should be given
the most thorough investigation.

pointed foreman, and the jury retired

already contains his wife and three
children, and here he came when the
cares of his official duties would permit.
By his death large circle of friends in
this region suffer a personal bereavement
and sincere sorrow will follow this an
nouncement. He was an educated, honor
able gentleman, and at the same time
nothing stilted, meeting every one with
the cordiality of apparent equality. His
death will create vacancy IN the Dakota
bench which may delay the decision in the
capital commission case.
