FOR JUDGE.

OF views as 20 the Ippol'VtneHV W q
Judge for the new 18th district. 1t
will be seen that nearly every county
has Il candidate. Naturally enough,
Mobiles county, the leading county OF
the district, has 4 candidate to present
also in the person of Judge Geo. W.
Wilson. Judge Wilson has already
served as Municipal Judge, in Kansas,
has held the office of County Attorney
for two terms since coming to this
county, is now Mayor of Worthi"gton,
and in all these positions he has acquit.
ted himself with credit.
But the Judge needs no introduction
to the people of the district. lie has
built up an extensive practice in the
surrounding counties, and is we'll
known to the bar and the people. IT
appointed. we feel sure he will make
IN able and an impartial Judge. We
know of no lawyer in the district who
has greater breadth of view or who is
less likely to 1e influenced by preju-
dice, than Judge Wilson.
COUNTY SEA BILL PASSED.
The Legislature passed the county
seat bill before it adjourned. The bill,
we understand, is substantially rs pub
lished in the ADVANCE few weeks
ago, only it makes clear the fact that
wherever county-seat has been locat-
ed by II vote of the people, as is the case
with Worthington, i tl,ree-fifths mia
jority shall be necessary to effect a
change. n maj 'rity of the free holder
voters voting at the previous general
election must petition the county com
missio'ecs before they can call an cleo
ton on the question CT change.
1t is now in order for Adrian, Rush
more, Ellsworth. Bigelow. Jersey, In
dian Lake, Deforest or Dundee to bring
IN vote on the question OF a change.
We are inclined to favor Ellsworth.
Just because it is so much nearer the
cenaer of the county than Adrian.
RCSSIi AND ENGLAND
The dispatches for week past indi
cate \ rupture between Russia and
Envianl. Russia is gradually moving
troops nearer and nearer to the British
line on the north Of her Indian posses
sions, ant: England, it seems, has pro
tested and warned Russia off.
Is the long expected conflict at hand
or not? For years this cloud of wa
HIS been floating III the minds of tn
world, and intelligent observers Of ia
tions and events have said shat tn
great conflict was only u question c
time. Interpreters Of Scriptural pro
p,ecy have also outlined the conflict
claiming that Russia was to conque
England and then all Europe, and
having done so, compel the European
nations to join her in an attack upO1
the United States to crush out Repub
lican government. If we mistake no
Dsldwin's Armageddon, Monroe's LII
terpreter and Translator and Connolly
Four Beasts, all agree rs to this.
Furthermore, us showing Russian
policy, a document was published som
years ago, left by the founder of Rus
ola. outlining the course which his sue
cessors were to pursue. In this pape
he said that it had always been tn
destiny of the Northern races to over
run and conquer the Southern races
and that this was the destiny of Ru:
sis.
Should the war come, it may soon dc
velop into the most gigantic conflict
tho history of the world, or, the nation
may join England again, and end
somewhat like the Crimean war, tina
10, without materially changing til
map Of the old world.
