It is the old fight over again in Min

There are always some unfortunate
beings who get good positions under
every administration, only to prove an
incubus and dead weight. Grant had
several; SO did Hayes; Garfield and Ar.
thur had their share, and now they be.
gin to develop under Cleveland.
1ncompetency seems to be the worst
element thus far developed, and in the
persons of Sparks, Commissioner of the
General Land Office, and Black, Com
missioner of Pensions. Sparks has
made a terrible .botch of the admins.
tration of the land office, and nearly
every one of his decisions is being re.
vised or revoked by Secretary Lamar,
and it is said that any quantity of cuss
words are laying around the Interior
Department in very loose condition.
Black is chock full of self-conceit. He
has the big head bad, sits in his office
like royal tycoon, and keeps members
waiting. for an hour in the ante.room
and then admits them to his presence
with great show of condescension. They
don't like this. He is openly charged
with removing Union soldiers and fill
ing their places with rebel soldiers.
This is bringing the G. A. R. down on
him like an avalanche. He knows so
little about the administration of his Of
ice that he gives outlandish statements
OF figures that turn his predictions and
estimates into uproars Of laughter and
rldlcule in Congress. Two unfortunate
appointments. and both from Illinois.

! good material to select from.

Lake Benton Ncws:-We hear that
o. B. Turrell, of Redwood Falls, is an
aspirant for congress from this district.
Two terms in the legislature with him
has given us high regard for 0. B. Tur-

grasp questions before legislative
bodies, and invariably found on the
right side. We fear that the eastern
part of the district will not let the

aTalk about luck, says Colonel a.

talk about luck, . says Colonel A..
r. McGill, state insurance commission
er of Minnesota, and then he proceeds to
tell this story, on the truth of which he
is willing to stake his chances for the
next gubernatorial nomination. When,
in the spring of 1862, the army of the
Potomac moved into the Notifications
at Manassas and Centeryile, which had
been vacated by the rebels, the boys
spent much of their time gathering
relics from the battlefield of Bull Run
to send home to their friends. One day
gawky member of the Fourth New
York brought in an unexploded per-
cussion bomb and proceeded to draw
the load before sending it away. He
might, if he had brains enough to last
him over the doorsill, have taken it to
an artilleryman and had it safely un-
loaded, but instead of this he took it to
blacksmith shop, where with hammer
and cold-chisel, he sat down in the
middle of the floor, took the bomb be-.
tween his legs, placed the chisel on the
brass screw at the point, and gave it a
smart lick with the hammer. The
next instant the atmosphere was dense
with disintegrated blacksmith shop. A
section of the batting roof had business
over in another county, and chunk of
the side wall went down to visit a
neighboring camp. Pieces of iron and
steel that were once tools took an i'm
mediate vacation and fled to parts un-
known. In short, the shop was demol-
ished.
..But what of the man?'' we asked
of Colonel McGill.
''He's the chap / was coming to.
When the boys rushed over to see what
was the matter, there he sat, bolt up
right in the midst of the debris, with
his legs straddled out, hammer in one
hand and cold-chisel in the other, and
trying to spit hair off the end of his
tongue. = BY gosh,' he said, as he
slowly crawled to his feet, 4 guess the
folks at home'll have to git along
'thout that shell.
''The only injury that had been done
to him was the singeing of his hair and
whiskers. He wasn't even much fright
ened till the next day. Chicago
