MARCH 13.-In the case of the People
VS.. David Williams, grand larceny, the
jury, after having been out for twenty
six hours, returned verdict of guilty

The petit Jurors presented to the court
a written request for information as to
whether the court would have the power
to keep them on duty without any re-
Enumeration. They were informed that
such was the power Of the court, but
that they enjoyed the blessings of good
government, its peace and protection,
and should be willing, without money
and without price: to serve their country
in whatever position they might be
placed. Prompt action, however, would
be taken in the matter. Several of the
jurymen expressed themselves satisfied
with His Honor's opinion and advice.
The members Of the bar then present
dwelt upon the subject to some length,
some of whom were in favor of the Jury
men returning to their homes until mat
ters were more satisfactorily arranged. |
The jurymen were assured that they
should not be worked too hard, and that |
The work would be divided up among the
citizens of the First Judicial District.

THE DEMOCRAT FUzE.

The arrival in our city Thursday of
the Democratic hummer candidate for
Governor, caused the local Democrats to
make Il desperate effort to meet him at
the depot in spread-eagle style. Through
hard effort seventeen faithfuls were
secured To march in rear of the band
with ROsebroOk mounted on fiery steed
as marshal. The procession was grand
and magnificent fizzlc i'm point of num-
bers.
In the afternoon Ames was conducted
to the Cement Works To "work" the
vote there, and all kinds of intimations
are made that they will be pulled to his
support There is some question about
this, however.
The speeches mt the Opera House in
the evening We're neither convincing nor
impressive. Flandrcau, Wilkinson and
Amcs in turn denounced the Republic
an party, AMI maligned the milling in
terests of our State, Not one word was
said that convinced anyone why he
should vote the Democratic ticket, while
many things were said Ia show why ne
should not.
The attendance was large, made NJ
about half and half between Democrats
and Republicans, with Il fair sprinkling
of PrOhibltionists.
As whole the meeting made many
votes for Mc,iill

THE q. A. X. ENTERTAINMENT.

The supper and entertainment given
at the Bentley Rink "Wednesday night
was the most enjoyable occasion of the
season. About 500 people participated,
and the net proceeds amount to abou,
Sl25. 1t was the original intention OF
the Post To forward the proceeds To the
Charleston sufferers, hut as ample means
has been sent there through the gcner-
osity of the American people, it was de-
termined tn divide the profits between
the Post and tine Ladies' Relief Society.
The ladies did much toward making the
entertainment the grand success it was,
and they are certainly entitled to di-
VIDE. After supper was oyer n pleasing
number of recitations were recited and
several choice selections of vocal and
instrumental pieces were rendered.
The only questionable feature of the oc-
casion and something that caused con-
siderable severe criticism was the re-
marks Of O'Leary, of Murray county,
who very foolishly took the opportunity
to impose upon those in attendance with
a political plea for Gen. Pope in his can
didacy for the State Senate. He did
this however, upon his own motion, and
he was Justly Missed down.
The young folks enjoyed the latter
part of the evening in dancing, and mt
about II o'clock the party dispersed.

A DANGEROUS PROCEEDING

The methods employed by j. w. Fow.
Ter, Democratic candidate for sheriff, tC
defame the good name and integrity OF
G. II. Piper, the Republican candidate
for the same Office, is IL dangerous and
condemning proceeding. 1t is more
than that. 1t is the act of coward and
perjurer if the reports be true of his
actions, and of this there seems to be lit
tie reason to question.
1t Is asserted that Mr.. Fowler has TAX
Ell affidavit to the assertion that Mr.. Pr
per agreed to sell out for $50; or that
the said Fowler was to be allowed to
succeed in his election and all salary re-
ceived in access of 81 500 was to be
turned over to Piper. Inasmuch as Mr..
Piper has been denied the privilege of
perusing the affidavit it is not known
the exact language used, but the sub
stance is as above given.
To say that Mr.. Piper stopped to such
degradation of his manhood is a false
hood too transparent for any of those
who know him to believe. There is not
Il man in the county who would scorn
with more genuine contempt the enter
tainment of such thoughts as have been
attributed to Mr.. Piper than he himself.
Mr.. Piper has handed us the following
statement for publication which we glad
ly place before our readers:
rNn tbn Nntn., ,c Dl,,n E,,fL ro,,,,<r.
Any aflidavits or statements made by
John w. Fowler, opposition candidate
for sheriff, or other person, to the effect
that OFFERED to sell out the canvass or
pool the office of sheriff at ANY price is a
base and malicious falsehOod. am
fatty refused permission To see the afii-
davit claimed to be made by John w.
Fowler. Perjurers dread the conse-
Quences! G.. III. PIPER.

efforts for our comfort, and to the mem.
bers of this church and congregation and
also to the members of other Churches
and citizens of MankatO 10 whom we are
indebted for a welcome to their homes
and to their bountiful hospitality.
To this our pastor, Mr.. Pollock, re-
sponded, assured them Ofthe pleasure it
gave our people to entertain them and
hoped 1t would not be long until the
synod might see its way clear to make
us another visit. There were in ali about
one hundred delegates present. Ac-
cOrding to tabulated reports, the Pres
byterian church in the United States
contributed during the past year $lO,-
562, 32l, an average of$l6 for each church
member for the support of the gospel at
home and abroad, and of this the synod
of Minnesota contributed SOC, 647, leav-
ing her the third of all the other synods
of this church in the amount per capita
of contributions. Encouraging reports
were also given of Albert Lea and Mac
Allester Colleges, by the Rev. Drs. Alb
bolt and McCurdy, and the synod adj
journed ut quarter before three on
Monday p. m. We wish all the men,
bers God speed i'm their work, and
thank them for the many kind things
which they said of our town, its people
and churches.
