The P7'OHiDS,

The Minnesota Prohibitionists are the
first in the field with State ticket this
year. Representatives from thirty-sev-
en- counties met in State convention in
st: Paul last Wednesday and placed a
full State ticket in the field. The can.
didates for the several offices were all
nominated by acclamation, and are as
follows: Governor, S. E. Childs. Wa
SEGA; lieutenant governor, j. C. Pink
ham, Hennepin; secretary Of state, C.
A. Pierce, Winona; auditor H. w. al
len, Hennepin; treasurer, P. j. Kniss.
Rock; attorney general, ". NJ. Hatch.
Otter Tail; clerk of the supreme court.
G. a. Fosness, Chippewa Falls. Later
}. w. Cochran Of Minneapolis, C. j..
Shannon Of Duluth, and Joseph Nc
Knight OF Mower county, were placed
in nomination for justices of the su.
preme court. The platform adopted
declares that prohibition of the LIQUOR
traffic has become the greatest issue in
American politics, ana that duty de.
mands separate and independent politi-
cal action BY the friends Of prohibition.
1t also declares for female suffrage.

St. Paul Dispatcn:-I Scandinavia
ans of this State certainly cannot COM
plain of their treatment at the hands Of
the Republicans in the matter of the
congressional nominations They have
secured the two first nominations, Knute
Nelson. a Norwegian in the Fifth dis
trict and John Lind, Swede, in the
Second. These are both able men and
good nominations aside from the cues
ton of their nationality. They will
both, of coure, be elected, as their dis
tricts are the two strongest in the
State.
New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1886-07-14

early day that if Lind entered the field
as a candidate for Congress he would
be nominated and elected. Part of the
prediction has been filed by Lind,s
nomination by reclamation in opposition
to some of the best men of the State.
and the balance of the prediction will
be fulfilled in November, and that too
by not less than ten thousand majority.
Mankato Register Mr.. Lind is a
young man, who has never before en-
tered into politics to any extent, and is
wholly selfmade. He possesses kind
and friendly disposition, is thoroughly
honest, and gives every promise of be-
coming man of brilliancy. He is in
no way implicated in political soul
duggery, and will hold the united sup
port of all true republicans in the dis
trict, which is conceded to be equiva-
lent to an election He is a lawyer Of pro-
minence and has quite thoroug ac-
quaintance in the western part of the
district. His canvass for the honor just
conferred on him has been most per-
sistent one.
Redwood Gazette:-The GAZETTE ex-
pressed its displeasure with Mr.. Lind's
canvass in this county, but recognizes
the fact that there is no resisting his
"get-up-and-git. He will gain what
ever he makes up his mind to have, and
we only hope he will go for right
things when he gets to Congress.
Redwood Reveille:-Though a young
man, Mr.. Lind will represent the dis
trict in a manner that will cast no dis
credit upon himself. On the other
hand, when his abilities and ambition
are considered it will be strange and
surprising if he does not make a record
to which he and his constituency may
point with pride. He will certainly
make a good congressman and every
voter in the district may take pride and
| pleasure in casting a ballot for him.
Winona Republican:-There are peo-
| pie who do not like John Lind, the
nominee of the Second Congressional
district Republicans, and deplore his
nomination as, in their judgement, I'M
fortunate. Others have no objection to
the man, but criticise the platform con-
structed for him to stand upon. There
is no occasion, brethren, for either sor-
row OF alarm. Mr.. Lind is compare

yet to learn, but he is one of the kind
who is capable of acquiring knowledge
and making good use OF it when OBJ
tanned. In this particular he has but
few superiors in his district. AS re-
CARDS the platform it is confessedly a
a little crude in conception and lame
in expression, but it is not double.fac-
ed, and It's merit of obvious sincerity
and directness, so far as it goes, COM
pensates for the absence of a great deal
of unmeaning and deceitful verbiage in
the use of which at least some candi-
dates and conventions have become ex.
perts. Mr.. Lind himself, we feel justi-
fed in saying, is very sound and
promising candidate, and as for The
| platform-his own character outweighs
anything which the convention. even
! with the most consumate skill possible,
might have constructed for him to
stand upon. John Lind is product of
which the Second district Republicans
have excellent reasons to be proud. He
is too honest 3 man to practice deceit
either at home or in the National Con-
Dress

The Tin Peddler's Dream.

It was only twelve or fourteen years
ago that queer thing happened near
Medina, o. A tin peddler who was
driving a wagon for a firm in Cleveland
was taken sick one day in summer, rs he
was driving on the, highway, and he
sought shelter in farm house. He had
run of fever for seven or eight days.
and when able to get out again he said
to the owner of the farm:
81 am satisfied that there is sum Of
money buried on your farm. | have
seen the spot several times in my
dream"
"Oh," replied the farmer. eff you
can find any treasure here you are well
come to it."
"How much will you take to waive
all claims2' persisted the peddler.
GIVE dollars worth of milk pans"
"If you will go to town and get a
LAWYER to draw up the papers IN due
form, will give you $25 in cash."
The farmer tried to laugh the ped
dler out of his notion, but the man was
so earnest in wishing to buy all rights
to what he might find that paper was
drawn up, the $25 paid over, and he
was told to go ahead. He replied that
he was in no hurry, and mounted his
wagon and drove home, but in about q
fortnight he returned with horse and
wagon and a companion. Giving notice
that he had come to claim his own, he
proceeded to dig in a corner OF the front
yard, and before the hole was three feet
deep he had unearthed q small stone
Jug. tightly corked. 1t was broken on
the grass plot, and lying among the
fragments were $4,000 in gold and sill
yer coins. None of the pieces had been
coined within less than fifteen years, and
the owner of the place had occupied it
for niue years, and knew that nobody
could have buried the jug there mean
while.
The peddler said that very tall
dark k-complexioned man, having a scar
on his forehead and limp in his gait,
had repeatedly come to him In his
dreams and pointed out the spot. The
description exactly answered that of a
hard case who had been in the county
Jail for horse stealing, and who had
subsequently died in the penitentiary at
Columbus. However, the peddler had
been so careful to purchase all rights IN
advance, and had walked so directly to
the treasure that the officials of the law
M de up their minds to investigate him.
His find was seized and his record was
looked up, but when nothing could be
shown against him he got possession OF
the treasure and used it to buy an inter
| est in the house he worked for.

FIRED AT 1880 O'CLOCK
The Story Told of n Western Hotel.

They engaged a new porter at the
Lahr House, Lafayette Ind. He was an
active young man, with Hibernian type
of countenance and large horny hands
about the size of hams. Everybody
liked him, he was so cheerful, SO oblig
ing. and so vigorously and scrupulously
exact, in carrying out every order given
him.
On Tuesday, Mr.. J. B. Johnson. the
vice e-president of the Omaha Chilled
Plow Works, put up iststhe i'0tv'. Dir.
johnson is a very dignited and polished
gentleman, and extremely particular
about his room and service. That even
ing a very extraordinary thing occurred.
Some say it was about 8 o'clock; others
place it as late as half-past 10. At any
rate, somewhere near that time, MIR.
johnson was amazed to see the door of
his room open and man step in.
"Who the deuce are you2" asked MIR.
Johnson.
'Oi am the porter" replied the
stranger, deliberately removing his coat
and rolling up his sleeves.
"Well, what is the meaning of this
singular intrusionW inquired Mr.. John
son.
Thomas did not reply. He spit upon
his hands, executed rapid and fantas-
tic jig and leaped suddenly upon the as
tonished guest.
"Help! Murderl" beloved Mr.. John
son. "Crazy man killing mel"
"Shut up, ye dhirty spalpeen" ex-
claimed Thomas, obtaining a firm grip
upon the bust of his trousers and pro-
pelling him rapidly out of the room;
''its none of the loikes of ye that's
wanted in a dacent house"
''But, my good man." gasped Mr..
Johnson, his words coming by excited
jerks, "there is some mistakel Let me
explain"
''Niver word, We hoodluml" replied
Thomas, rushing him toward the stairs.
''We're on to ye! The house has had ye
spottedW
The next instant the guests in the cor
ridor were amazed to see two figures =
one spluttering and kicking, and the
other grim and determined-shoot down
the staircase, plunge through the lobby
and disappear into the outer darkness.
In few moments Thomas returned,
painting and rolling down his sleeves.
"What in the name of heaven were
you doing2" asked Mr.. Weekly the
proprietor, when he recovered sufficient
ly from the shock to speak.
81 was firing that dhirty blackguard,
Johnson" replied Thomas
''Firing him? Hold me somebody
Who put such an internal idea into your
head2"
"Here she is" replied Thomas with
an injured air, holding the slate before
the proprietor's eyes.

This was what it-rss5

Relies Wanted.

When the meeting had been opened
in due form Brother Gardner said he
desired to call the attention of the meet
ing to the following circular recently
issued by the keeper of the museum
To THE PUBLIC The LimeKiln Club
Museum now contains about four thou
sand relics, ranging in interest from the
sword of Bunker Hill to the jack-knife
of John Quincy Adams. We have
room for at least two thousand more,
and are making an earnest effort to
build up something which will live
after us. If you have anything in the
nature of relic which you are willing
to part with we will receive it with
grateful hearts. We sadly need an
other skull of Nero, and can make
room for any old boots belonging to
Plato, spades or shovels used by Diog-
enes, or shotguns with the name of Ce-
sar engraved on the breech. We are
the only museum in this country which
accepts relics as marked and swear by
'em forever after.-Detr0it Free Press.

not be cut off. Mrs. Reynolds gave
birth to her child the day after the as
sault of the Tories. II lived, grew to
womanhood, and is well remembered IN
Sullivan county as the wife OF Dr. Blake
Wales, one of the pioneer physicians Of
this part of the State, d d the progeni-
tor of a large and pr nInent family.
Caleb Reynolds, the child who was
kicked so brutally by one of the Tories,
grew up, and was soldier under Jack
son at the battle of New Orleans, and
was killed in that engagement.
The Wings who set out IN pursuit of
the Tories overlook them in the noun
tains, and only two of them escaped
alive. Benjamin Kelley, the leader OF
the gang. was shot in the mountains by
a man of the name of June. There Were
three or four of the others secreted in
the mountains and the guards were
watching for them, sG,,,,s persons told
playing cards. June sfarfed to find
them, and when he came in sight they
were lying down, but hearing his ap
proach, rose up, and as they did so June
shot Kelley. They escaped, and Kelley
wandered down near certain large sui
I)uuI SpI1HS, NAOlS AS was 1Ouh0 NSoo
by John Henley and his dog, partially
covered up with leaves and brash. Near
him, tied up in a bundle with dark
strings, was the wedding coat of Mr..
Runnels, which Kelley had stolen o
long time before. This was the coat in
which Henry Reynolds had been mar
ried thirteen years before The coat was
returned to Reynolds, but he refused to
touch it after it had been in possession
of Tory, and ordered it to be burned.
Edward Soblin escaped to Canada, and
years afterward sons of his returned to
Orange county to search for booty that
their father and others of the Smith
gang had hidden in the mountains.
In 1888 Henry Reynolds removed to
Sullivan county and settled in what was
known as the Mutton Hill neighbor-
hood, being one of the pioneers of New
ersink. He was the first Supervisor of
the town, in 1898. In 1906 he was
elected to the Assembly, and was, until
the day of his death, one of the leading
men IN Sullivan county. His wife pre-
sen; ed him with six children after leav-
ing Orange county. Phebe Reynolds
married jeremiah Drake soon after the
family came to Sullivan county. Her
descendants are among the most numer-
Gus and respected in this part of the
State. The known descendants of Hen
~ Reynolds, according to one of the
family, to-day number over 1, 500, as
ten of his children reached maturity,
married, and reared large families.-N
