present: Judges VIM. NJ. McCluer, G. P.
Gregory, j. c. Netheway, E. G. Butts, j. N

Messrs. Thos. Licky, A. E Mccartney, E. d.
Burlington, Fayette Marsh, L. L. Manwaring,
N. H. Clapp, Ira w. Castle, G. R. Middleton
and Chas. McCuer.
The chair stated that the meeting was
called for the purpose of considering the
wishes of the bar in regard to the vacancy
which will occasioned by the expiration of
the term of the Hon. F. NJ. Crosby as district
judge. After full discussion of the sub
ject an informal ballot was taken for the
choice OF successor, and resulted as fol-
lows: f. M. Crosby, IA; scattering, Q; not
voting, g. After some further discussion
the following resolution was unanimously
adopted:
;. ResoEoed, That in the judgment of this asso-
citation 1t is ineXpedient at this time, and is
never desirable that the choice of a judicial
officer should be left to the determination OF
political canvas, That such officer should
be entirely disassociated from partisan poll
tics. Fitness and qualification for the posi-
ton should in all cases obtain without ref
erence to the opinion of the candidate.
Resotoed, That while we do not in anyway
desire to dictate to political organizations, or
the people of the district, yet from many of
us having practiced in this court during his
fourteen years of service upon the bench,
and since we have had ample opportunity to
judge of his qualifications. we deem it but
just and proper to give expression to our own
opinions upon the subject, and we cordially
and respectfully recommend the Hon. F. NJ
Crosby for another term.
Resol0ed, That copy of the proceedings of
this association be forwarded to the other
Bar associations of this district.
On motion the association adjourned.

Yeloped. This is owing to the want of capt.

WINONA.

Especial Correspondence of the Globe.i
WINoNA, Aug. IL The weather here for
week past has been beautiful. Cool, clear,
breezy and with q smoky haze hanging over
the bluffs far up the river, one would suppose
the summer of the Indians was upon US.
Yet glance at the calendar will show that
DOG Days. have only begun.
The seed that was sown in the spring has
grown, developed and ripened
The returns of nature are being secured.
and the yellow fields that surround the city
are fast becoming dotted with the shocks and
stacks of grain.
In two weeks the hum of the thresher and
the smoke of the burning straw will fill the
land.
Winona is, as usual, lovely. With our
straight, wide, level streets, that are edged
with grass plats, anc shaded by maple and
elm, we claim, and justly, too, that man has
not built prettier city on the face of this
globe. Nor is our pride confined simply 10
our good looks We are a manufacturing
center and, to some extent, a commercial
one also. Our saw mills and planning mills
are numerous and prosperous. The wagons
manufactured by the Winona Wagon Co. are
famed and priced in every state in the Union
where wagons are used .f -.
The pows, made by the Winona Plow
company, are doing their share toward turn
ing over the earth that feeds the million.
The harvesters, turned out by the Winona
Harvester works, are on top of the heap, and
the institution is a success.
Last week new manufacturing company
was incorporated viz The Winona Auto.
matte Windmill company. The mill which
they propose to make is said to be the cheap
est, simplest, and most powerful mill in ex-
istence. The incorporators are men of
means in this city, and undoubtedly will
make the concern a success.
Several deaths have occurred in the city
from cholera morbus, and the recommends
ton to be little careful is being followed by
all people.
Building is going on quite rapidly, num-
Der of fine residences being under way and
a number more in contemplation.
The improvement TO the Republican"
block is nearly done, and $. Friend q Co.
will have an attractive store.
The Odd Fellows three story block is the
prettiest in the city, and will soon be full Of
tenants.

THE COURTS.
Supreme Court.

In the matter of the settlement of the final ac-
counts of Louisa I. Besondy, deceased, as
guardian of John ". Perry, Fred POSTER as
administrator of the estate of said Besondy,
deceased, respondent VS.. Fred POSTER, admin
istrator of said Besondy, and Jacob Grassel,
surety of said guardian, appellant:
Syltabus-A widow upon her re-marriage is
not liable for the support of her minor child by
former husband, but is entitled to have this in
come applied thereto. And father is not
bound to maintain the children of his wife by a
former marriage unless he voluntarily assumes
the relation of parent, and receives them into
his family under circumstances such as to raise a
presumption that he has undertaken to support
them gratuitously.
A guardian may be allowed for necessary ex-
penses incurred in the support and maintenance
of mis- minor ward though no pre- vious order has
been made therefore by the court, So an allow
ance for the past maintenance of an infant may
be made in favor of parent, or other person
not bound for the support of such infant for ex-
pendtures necessarily incurred therefore pre-
vious to the appointment of a guardian.
Points cannot be made upon the argument
which are not contained in the copy served
upon the opposite party under rule II of this
court.
Judgment reversed and a new trial ordered

!ShiDDin1 Cattle.

The matter of transporting cattle by rail is
getting to be a business of very large pro-
portions indeed and is regarded as one of
the chief sources of revenue to some Of the
roads, especially those leading into and out
of New Mexico Wyoming, Colorado, and the
northwest generally. Between 300,0 and
500 900 head of young cattle leave Texas
yearly, for Colorado Wyoming and the
great northwest. Only about one-tenth of
of this years crop was transported by rail,
the rest of it coming up overland by the
trail, in the old way. Those that come this
way will not reach their destination before the
last OF September, and as the grass has been
unusually good this year 1t is expected that
the animals will be in better condition than
they usually have been at the approach of
winter. considerable number of cattle
men this year tried the experiment of ship
ping their young cattle by rail- The result
is that they arrived in Wyoming and Colo
RADIO, and along through the cattle region,
before the first of June. These were i'm
mediately turned out upon the grazing
grounds, and the consequence will be when
the cold weather commences they will be in
excellent condition. All considerations
show that the most profitable way is to ship
these young cattle by rail to
the grazing grounds. In this way
they are got upon the grass early
in the spring, and as before remarked will
be in good condition to stand the winter.
1t is estimated that not less than eighty per
cent of the young cows that reach the north
by rail will drop their calves by spring, while
not one in five hundred of those that come
overland will do so. In addition it is esti-
mated that the death rate among the cattle
that are driven the first winter will be five
times what it will be with those that come by
rail. The shipment by rail is rapidly grow
ing into favor. Of course it will require
sometime to overcome the prejudice in favor
of following the old plan, besides tie expense
is no small consideration. This really is tue
greatest obstacle to overcome, but everybody,
sooner or later, will find out that it is most
advantageous and profitable to ship by rail.
