lion. JOHN J.. GIBBS, of Freedom
county, has recently sent to the Governor
his resignation as speaker and member
of the Legislature, to avoid any question
rs to his eligibility for the office of
Governor. MIR. Gibbs is a friend and
neighbor of many years standing, and
rs Mower county has no asplrant for
Gubernatorial honors, we can cheerfully
support Mr.. Gibbs. He is a farmer, a
gentleman in every sense, an excellent
presiding officer, sensible, intellectual,
honest aid incorruptible. What further
qualifications does candidate for
Governor Of Minnesota need? We hope
he may be successful.

Bill Nye's Cow Experience.

When l was young and used to roam about over the country, gath. ering watermellons in the dark of the moon, 1 used to think l could milk anybody's COW. but l do not think so now. l do not milk a COW now unless the sign is right, and it hasn't been right for a good many years.
 The last COW l tried to milk was a common cow born in obSeurity; kind of a sclf-made COW. 1 re- member her brow was low, but she wore her tail high, and she was haughty-oh, so naughty.
 l made a common place remark 10 her, one that is used in the very best of society, one that need not have given oil'ense anywhere. l said ''So," and she "soed." Then l told her to 'histe,' v and she "hioted." But l thought she overtjd it. She pat too much ex- pression in it.
 Just then I heard something crash through the window of the barn and fall with a dull sickeuing thud on the outside. The neigh. bors came to see what it was that caused the noise. They found that I done it in getting through the window.
 asked the neighbors the barn was still standing. They said 1t was, Then l asked if the COW was injured much. They said she seemed 10 be quite robust, Then l requested them to go in and calm the COW little and see if they could get my plug hat of her horus.
 am bayiug all my milk now of a mjlkman, select gentle milk man who will not kick, and I feel as though could trust him Then if he feels as tho1gh he could trust Ine il is all right.

ArkanSas at New Orleans.

The reputation of this perfect showing of the wealth and of the productions of Arkansas has al- ready penetrated far beyond the limits of the Southern states. Gen McRae, the Commissioner, who is also president of the Board of State Commissioners. has been splendidly supported by Dr, Guy Lewis, whose great experience in exhibitions proved ot incalculable value. It is difficult, indeed, to see how as representative display this one can be surpassed, if equaled anywhere. Samples of the con- mercial minerals, in which the State is so rich, are conveniently arranged on tables. and the Gen. eral greatly interested his visitors as in his pleasant genial manner he pointed to each in turn. Man ganese of the best quality found i'll America, and indispensable in the Bessemer steel process; iron ores from maryelously extensive beds as yet unworked, pending the com 1 pletion of new railroads, zinc, bet ter in quality and greater in varie- ty than any in the Union; novacu. lite or hone stone, superior to Le. want or Turkish stone, aud repre- senting an export industry of S250- GOO annually, were examined among others. The exhibit con- tains an immense variety of min- erals, and they range from the low to the high grades, such as brittle silver containing 85 per cent. oi the pure metal. There is also a display of tue mineral paints. Then there is a large stand oi smokeless coal, proved by analysis equal in quality to that found in the Lyken Valley of Pennsylvania, which stamps it as of the iirst-class for steam and manufacturing pur- poses. Attention was called to a display of fertilizers, gysum, phos. phate and gray nal,
