Donnelly versus the Pioneer Press.

Hon. Ignatius Donnelly, candidate for
congress in the Third district of Minnesota.
yesterday filed suit for libel in the district
court against the Pioneer Press company,
claiming damages in the sum of SO, 900.
The complaint is as follows:
Plaintiff alleges that on the Goth Gay of
September, 1882, the defendant maliciously
composed aud published concerning the
plaintiff in its said newspaper st st. Paul,
the false and defamatory matter following,
to-wit: eff it was curious to see how CON-
pletely the tripartite reformer had forgotten
his autograph note OF hand for years, until q
political exigency suggested the idea of using
it to advance his political interests, it is
still more curious to see how promptly he
denied and repudiated On oath the instru-
ment he had just acknowledged when il be-
came too sadly evident that he couldn't use
ii In tiIat way.n
Plaintiff alleges that he was at the time of
the above publication a candidate before the
people of the Third congressional district of
Minnesota for congress. and the defendant
did thus charge the plaintiff with the crime
of perjury, with the special design OF affect
ing injuriously his election IS such candi-
date, and that by means OF such publication
the plaintiff believes he has been injured in
his prospects Of election, and that he wss in
fact injured in his reputation to his damage
in S10, 600. for which sum with the costs aud
disbursements of such action he prays judg-

d st. Paul Railway company deny the report
that Arbitrator Bogue's decision requiring
the company to turn into the pool the ire
venue derived from transporting wheat from
Minneapolis at "milling and transit rates to
Chicago or Milwaukee would have tendency
to break up the Northwestern Traffic associ-
alton. One of these officials says
''In all my experience with freight matters
l never saw so harmonious state Of affairs
as at present exists. This is not only true
in the Northwestern Traffic association, but
applies to every section of the country
touched by the Milwaukee & st. Paul system.
We are not doing a particle of rate-eutting in
Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota or Da-
kota, aud we are confident that our compe-
titors are not. We have every assurance
that they are strictly maintaining rates,
and were they not we should certainly
not be long in learning of il,
But everything is running smoothly.
and there is every indication that this will
continue for some time to come. No, there
is not going to be any break in the North
western Traffic association, and if there ever
was time when the freight-carrying roads
of the northwest had reason for rejoicing it
is at the present time, for in addition to the
harmony which exists among them they are
having tremendously heavy traffic Our cars
are kept constantly in motion day after day,
and it is all we can do to meet the demands
made on us and dispose of them as they
should be.'' es''

DID He Fool 4,cou the vino?

BY means of drummer, who resembles
Gov. Pierce, the wag at Medora the other day
played quite joke on John Warn, an am
bilious citizen who wants to be county
commissioner. He was introduced to the
drummer as Gov. Pierce, and after sundry
smiles and smokes, elected promise of the
appointment. The Mandan Pioneer says:
This so delighted the ''leading citizen" that
he ordered five dollar bottle of champagne
and called in a few of the boys, who all
joined the governor in drinking to the health
OF Stark county's new commissioner. An
other bottle of the exhiliarating fluid was
called for by the prospective commissioner,
and other items OF ''all be joyful were added
until the new commissioners bar bill reached
IN the neighborhOod of twenty hard dollars,
when the party adjourned to give the gov
ernor time to write out the com mission. A
commission was formally written and pre-
scented. This was too good. and the other
boys all felt so happy that they also each pre-
pared and presented commission to the
Heading citizen.'' He soon found his
pockets Overlooking with bona fide commits
sions, and began about that time to ''smell
mice" He saw the joke was on him and
good humoredly joined in the laugh, and
''set 'em up'' for the boys.

The Devils Lake Inter Ocean SAYS: w. D.
Lipe has laid upon our desk an ear of yellow
Dent corn grown upon his place, ten miles
northeast of this city. The ear is over seven
inches in length and is well filed and was
thoroughly matured long before our first
frost. Mr.. Lipe will plant sixteen acres next
season. He says he never raised as good
corn in southern Minnesota as he did here
this year.
1t is one of the questions of special interest
as to how far north corn can be ripened in
Dakota and what varieties are the safest.

The Grafton Times says that farmers in

the price of wheat that they are not prepar-

This is evidently great mistake, as the acre
age of the country at large is likely to be so
reduced as to insure good prices.

Tie Politicians Corner.

The Democratic legislative committee for
the Fargo district held Saturday, put in nom
iuation strong men, several of them Demo-
Gratis. DR.. Bert Robertson, for the house, is
popular physician and strong stump
speaker, and averages largely on the Demo-
cratic side. J. A. johnson for the council,
is also the choice Of the Independents, is
capable and fine vote gatherer. He will
poll a big majority in Cass and with proper
attention to the other counties. should be
elected. He has but little general politics,
Pyatt, of Richland, for the council, is one of
the leading citizens of Wahpeton, and an
able and popular man, Henry Oliver, of
Ransom; t. NJ. Pugh, of Dickey, and r. D.
Button, of La Moure. are excellent men,
of strictly Dakota politics and would make
fine representatives. They will pick up a
lively vote in their own counties.
Since the Ohio election Gov. Pierce has
come out for the Republican ticket just
as if his Chicago paper was not bitterly hos
tile to Mr. Blaine. The governor visited
Fargo last week to confer with Delegate Ray
mond somewhat incognito, at least the wide
awake local papers failed to get an eye on
him. For some reason he did not want to
have it known that he was here. He is to
come again sOon to make longer stay.
The Huron TINES is staunch Republican
paper, but It bolts the legislative ticket just
nominated by its party in that district and
says: ''Beadle county viii give majority Of
nearly 1000 against the Ailler-Westover
ticket, and the stern voice of the people will
thus teach those VINO would rob the county Of
its political rights that infamy and fraud
cannot flourish in Dakota free air.

A DISMAL DAY.
Such was the Outlook at the Municipal
Court Room,
Where the Sinners were Gathered to Receive
Their Various Sentences.

The cold rain battered dismally against
the long windows of the police court yester-
day and not single struggling ray of sun
shine found its way in to relieve the gloom.
The bull pen was about filed with sinners
and buns who huddled together as if in
quest of warmth and sympathy and the
spectacle was enough to give one the cold
shivers. The spirit of the ice king was
abroad and the pale, cold arms of the mist
encompassed, depressed and enveloped
everything in their freezing embrace.
We have said that the pen was full of sim
ners, most of whom were dirty, hardened
and careless as to their fate. But the gloomy
precincts of the pen were relieved bv one
bright and pretty face which bore now the
impress of fear and sadness. 1t was the
kindly handsome face of a woman, whose
stylish attire and neat form were clearly out
of place in the motley crowd, She was
charged with disorderly conduct, and the
officer testified that he had arrested her in
company with her presumed parmour.
She testified that she had been making her
toilet, when a man named Charles Sherman
forced his way into her room. She ordered
him to leave, when he refused, and after this
the officer came in and put them both under
arrest. The man didn't appear and his bail
OF $25 was forfeited, while she was very
properly discharged.
The case of c. NJ. Baker, who was so bru-
tally dubbed by a special officer named Ryan,
was called, when DIR. Ancker stated that
the young man was not able to leave his
room. The hearing was continued until to-
day.
John O'Ncil was arcaigned on the charge
Of obtaining money by false pretenses. He
secured $50 from j. Mackay, a loan agent,
by representing that he owned team of
horses and a wagon; he mortgaged the.pro-
perry and gave his note, and the fraud was
not discovered until after ne had secured the
money. He pleaded guilty yesterday and
was committed in default Of 81, 800 bail.
Peter Anderson and three other buns, one
Of whom claims to haYe been robbed of $40,
were up on the charge of drunk aud disord-
erly. The police wanted to investigate the
charge of robbery and the hearing was con-
tinued until to-day. They were all COM
mitted.
John Mcmahon went for buggy ride on
Sunday, and, while full of the old stuff, he
ran into another buggy and knocked it silly.
He was up on the charge Of reckless driving
and it cost him double eagles worth of the
yellow dust to get out of the scrape.
Frank Remer was up on the serious charge
Of drawing gun on one of his neighbOrs,
but an investigation showed that it was
simply a neighborhood row and he was fined
only ten dollars.

Il Hre,s Consent Unneoessnyu.

The land officers decide that if q mans
wife refuses to go upon the claim, the man
can by himself establish residence suffi-
Gent to satisfy the law. This case of that
sort is reported by the Mitchell Republican:
Col. Milligan proved up yesterday on fine
quarter section of land in Sanborn county.
He raised an excellent crop this season and
complied with the law as well as any man in
Dakota could do under the circumstances.
His wife refusing to move upon the land he
had to go it alone and succeeded in making
improvements and raising a crop that ex-
cited the envy of some hard hearted rascals
that put their heads together to beat him out
of the land. But right will prevail, and the
colonel, through his attorneys, Capt. Fegan
and Judge Warren, has pushed his case
through the land Office and secured title to
his farm. Col. Milligan is pluck to the back
bone and don't propose to let any of the
boys get sway with him.

Especial Correspondence of the Globe.

CIODe.
HURON, D. T., Oct. 1S.-The Huron pre-
cinct caucus was held at the Court house this
evening to select delegates to the county
convention, which nominates the Republican
candidates for the several county Offices
Fourteen delegates were elected and were in
structed to vote as a unit for ticket which
was at the time selected. This ticket was to
fill ten different offices and they manifested
the usual Huron Republican 'hoggishnessn
by putting seven Huron men on the ticket
and two out OF the remaining can almost be
called Huron men, as they reside here the
greater part of the time. Beadle county con-
sists of thirty-ive townships and it would
not be at all surprising IF the outside dis
tricts rebelled against the dictates of Huron.

Some OF Theodore,s Whoppers.

The Livingston Enterprise says of the New
York reformer and Dakota cattle rancher:
Theodore Roosevelt is telling marvellous
stories in the east regarding his prowess in
killing great numbers of grizzly bears in the
Big Horn mountains. 1t would doubtless
surprise him greatly if told that he had never
killed grizzly, that there is no such variety
OF bear in the Rocky mountain range or its
spurs, in this latitude. Yet such is what
old hunters say and they are doubtless cor
rect. There are cinnamons and silver-tips
here, but though they may be mistaken for
grizzlies they are vastly different bear.

character, named Ben Yatle, got into a
wrangle with Albert Kahlcs, and finally the
two came to blows, when Vatle struck Kahles
with beer bottle several times about the
head and cut him so severely that DR.. Beals
was called in to dress the injuries inflicted
upon him. The latter was so badly hurt
that he could not be taken to the city hall,
but was taken home. This Vatle is the same
man that had fight about two years ago
with John Burch and beat him very severely.
He is very dangerous and hard character

The festive burglar plyed his vocation Sat.
urday evening and made State street the
scene of his visit. The residence of Mr..
John DoughertY was one of the places he
visited. At his residence the front door was
found unlocked, and the night
prowler walked in and searched Mr..
Doughertys clothing and was rewarded
to the extent Of s75 in cash, wheat check
and several notes, the latter of which will be
Of no value to any one except Mr.. Dougherty
1t was not known until morning that the
burglar had been around.
At the residence OF 8. F. Barney window
was forced open but nothing was taken. Mr.
Barney was up at a. III. and then found
that the window was open, and it is alto
gether probable that the burglar was in the
house when Mr.. Barney awoke.
