THE SENATE.

Senator Crosby would not decline a
denomination AS state senator, and in
fact, the woods are full OF men who
would not decline Il nomination for the
same position. Supt. J. T.. Helm, of
Iuvevne, is in the field; Colonel Fred.
Bloom and W. b. Brown, of Pipe
stone, are probably willing to serve.
In fact, all the counties except our
own have one or more candidates for
the position. But Murrcy county will
come up smiling ut the proper time, if
our people but unite on the best man.
We are us much entitled to have the
next senator rs any Of the other three
counties, and if Mobiles county is wise,
she will assist Murray in this matter,
tor, rs we have before stated, this year
we do not propose to ''let the tail wag
the dog. ."-Slayton Gazette.
We hear that Murray is claiming the
representative also which she has had
for the last two years. If Murray is
wise she will assist Mobiles THIS time
by uniting on Mobiles county man
for representative.
Luverne Herald: The Herald is au-
thOriZed by Senator A. NJ. Crosby to
announce that he will not be a candi-
date for senator from this district be-
fore the next republican senatorial
convention. This announcement
seems proper. thus early. in view of
the fact that Mr.. Crosby's name has
been mentioned as candidate.
Since the above was typed, the AID.
VANCE is authorized by Senator Cros-
by to say that the announcement is
false in every particular. He did not
authorize the Herald to make the an.
nouncement and is still candidate
We are informed that it was manufac-
tured out of whole cloth in the hope OF
forestalling Mr.. Crosby's candidacy.

THE ST. p. AND s. c. WINS.

THE ST. p. AND S. c. WINS.
The ADVANCE a few weeks ago
gave full account of the efforts of
the Attorney General to have the rail
road lands taxed. The Southern Min
nesota companies decided their lands
to the Milwaukee company and the
suits were then withdrawn. The St.
Paul and Sioux City argued the case
before the court, and on Wednesday
of last week the court decided in its
favor. The charter Of the company
therefore stands and the lands remain
exempt from taxation.
Following is the St. Paul Globes re-
port of the decision:
The State of Minnesota ex rel w. ].
Hahn, attorney. general, relator VS.
The St. Paul 4 Sioux City Railway
Company, respondent.
Syllabus-This court has jurisdic-
tiOn by quo warranto to enforce the
forfeiture of the charter of /, corpora
tion. The respondent formerly the
Minnesota Valley Railway company
did not forfeit its corporate franchise,
nor any of it's franchises except such
rs pertained to that particular line or
branch by failure to construct that
part Of its line "from st. Anthony via
Minneapolis to point Of juncture at
Sh2kopee." 1t did not forfeit it's cor
porate franchise by discontinuance of
its business rs railroad company in
consequence of having consigned its
railroad to the Chicago, St. Paul, Min
neapolis & Omaha Railway company,
pursuant to chapter 22S. special laws
1881. Judgment ordered for respond
ent. GILFILLAN. G.. J.
The railroad company set up the
claim that the road was sold under a
special law passed by the legislature in
1881, and that under this law the com
pany retained its franchises and cor.
porate rights. They were sharp enough
to anticipate the whole question by
getting special act passed allowing
them to sell the road and retain tleir
lands and their franchises, ETC., as a
railroad company.
We give the above as Il matter Of
news AS stated in the several ex.
tended articles recently published in
the ADVANCE, our own county will
not he mnci, longer affected by the
question Of taxing the lands. The
great bulk Of them have been sold and
we hope to see the rest sold this sea.

LITERARY NOTICES.

Demorest's Magazine for June is
filled with an unusual array of inter-
esting articles. Jenny June contrib
utes The American Drama, and its
Typical Stars, w. Jennings DemOr-
est, The Signs of the Times, and Kath.
arine Armstrong. Art Work in Metal.
Other good articles are Emanuel Gel.
bel. Rose Hartwick Thorpe, and Chi
ma Painting at Home. That Other
Person is continued and the shorter
stories are of interest. The depart.
ments, including that devoted to the
cause of Prohibition, are quite full.
The frontispiece is a steel engraving,
The Love Story.
Godey's Lady's Book for June pre-
seuts many attractive features. The
first is Il beautiful frontispiece illustra-
tiou called Loves Confession. a copy
of a celebrated French picture. This
is made more attractive as illustrating
cleverly written story by Augusta
De Bubna, called the Romance of a
Rose. The fashion plate is more than
i beautiful illustration of handsome
summer costumes, it is a real picture.
A variety of fashions for summer
styles are given in black, and all at
tractive double colored work page.
The continued stories and other liter
ary attractions make up a very enter
tanning number. Cooley grows better
each month as the year progresses.
This number completes the one hun
dred and twelfth volume. The SUBJ
scription price is s. per year.

small sum of twenty-five cents will do

saving life. That is the precise cost of

The sentiment of the Catholic church
toward the G.. A. r. and the decoration

Press we notice this item:

cathedral on Decoration day at 10 u.
m., at which time there will he Il re-.
QUEEN high mass for the dead soldiers.
All G. A. II. members, veterans and
their families are invited to be
present.
We understand that Arch bishop
Ryan, of Philadelphia, has issued a
letter saying that he sees no reason
why members of the Catholic church
should not join in memorial services
and the decoration of graves.

1t is said that Gen. Wnolsey, who
conducted the Soudan campaign, and
was pretty badly whipped at all points,
considers Gladstone traitor, and will
not sit at the same table with him.
Gladstone must feel "crusEed." This
reminds us of Gen. Sherman 5 refusal
to shake hands with Secretary STAN
ton the day of the grand parade at
Washington, thus giving Stanton u
public snub. It is said that Stanton
was very much mortified.
This lofty assumption of the superb
ority Of the soldier over the statesman
and civilian belongs to savages like
the Indians and barbarians like the
Goths and Vandals. It won't do in
this age. Gladstone is doing and has
done more for his country than a
whole brigade of Woolseys and stan
ton did more for his country than any
two Shermans in the army. Stanton
was our first war minister and SEer-
man Was our second or third soldier

A MOST REMARKABLE CASE.


A MOST REMARKABLE CASE.
During the summer of 1854, suffering
from blood poisoning, the result of I,
gun shot wound received during the
late unpleasantness, my attention
was called to the remedy of $. s. $.
through the public press, and wrote
to the proprietors of that medicine, de-
scribing my case, which l repeat for
the benefit of other sufferers. The
ball struck the elbow joint and went
through. 1t completely crushed all the
articulative surface of the humeral so
that both condyles and say four inches
of the shaft of the bone were removed
by the surgeon. 1t also severed the
ulnar The operation left the arm much
shorter and Timber, but it was very use
full. Some time in the fall of 1879 it
commenced to swell and intlame below
the elbow, and soon after it suppurat-
ed and discharged horribly offensive
matter. The bone spread until he
entire fore arm was putrid mass, en-
croaching both on the palm and back
OF the hand. l was warned by the
surgeons that this might happen in af
ter life from nerve and blood poverty
below the elbow. My condition may
be imagined at that time. The wound
was so offensive that [ could hardly re-
main in Il close room. l tried many
remedies, external and internal, but to
no avail. LII June, 1854, saw the I'D
vertisement of Swift:s Specific in the
city papers, and wrote Immediately
to the house in Atlanta, receiving the
following in reply: I'VE fear our $. 5.
