ago declined to nominate Democrats
and nominated Judges Berry and Van
derburgh for the places they each so ac-
ceptably filed.
This action was potentially induced
by Hon. E. NJ. Wilson, our candidate for
governor, and Hon. Seagrave Smith,
our candidate for chief justice. know
whereof L here speak, because. being a
member of that convention, was per-
sonally solicited on the subject by each
OF the gentlemen referred to, who were
then, as now, among the leaders of the
bar of this state.
A new man came to the gubernatorial
office, and new policies prevailed. The
bar of Hennepin county, with almost
complete unanimity, recommended
Hon. Seagrave Smith for district Judge
of that district. The recommendation
was disregsrded, and Mr.. Hicks, par
tlsan OF the governor, received the ap-
pelntment. Again, Mr.. Rea was ap-
pointed under similar conditions. Judge
Collins, in line with the same theory of
conduct, was transferred to the vacant
seat OF Judge Berry, and Mr.. Searle
was placed in the seat so emptied.
In this district the bar association,
Influenced largely by Democrats, recon-
mended III. F. Stevens, Republican.
for the newly created judgeship. His
EXcellency Gov. McGill ignored this
recommendation and appointed William
Louis Kelly.
l do not charge unftness upon either
OF the above-named appointees, but
merely criticise the fairness and de-
cency of the article referred to, which,
While impugning the Democratic con-
yention for partisanship, is guilty of the
same offense in the same respect, and
for transparent objects. Respectfully,

LUMBERMEN SUSPECTED
OF Forming a Pine Land Trust in
the Northwest

CHICAGO, Aug 19.-The Times this
morning prints the following: "a num-
Der of lumbermen held a private meet
ing at the Grand Pacific last evening in
conference upon the proposition to COM
bine all the pine interests of North
ern Wisconsin and Minnesota. Among
those present was f. Weyerhauser, of
Rock Island, who is at the head of the
syndicate, which controls 9,000,000,000
feet of stumpage. Senator Sabin, F. U.
Prince, j. G. O'Gorman and j. N.Searles,
of Saltwater, Man., took part in the
conference. The combination has been
acquiring new interests during the
year. and there is plenty of capital be-
hind it. Those present declined to be
interviewed as to the objects of the con-
ference or as to what had been done''
III. E. Norton, of Winona, Mimi,
when asked yesterday at the Grand
Pacific if he, Fred Weyerhauser and
other Northwestern lumbermen were
not organizing to control the lumber
production, said: 81 know very well
that l am not helping to organize
any such combinatian, and l do not
think any one else is. Mr.. Wey-
erhauser is very active man. and hay
ing such large interests he is watched
uted to him which he never does. Of
course, whenever he sees good bar
gain in pine lands he buys them, and l
have no doubt he has been buying re-
Gently, but not in connection with any
other men, and has no idea of forming
trust. At the time some sensational
dispatches regarding the organization
were sent out from Minneapolis Mr..
Weyerhauser and myself were far up
in the woods rusticating, without any
thoughts of business. 1t is probable
that these stories originated with per-
sons who are interested in Great
ing an impression that pine lands
were scarce and were ali being brought
up as rapidly as possible by a syndi-
cate which wanted to corner them. 1t
was hoped, no Doubt that such fables
would boom prices. l believe, how
ever, that there was little meeting of
lumbermen here yesterday, but l was
not present" ''Yes, there was a
little meeting of lumbermen here,''
said j. G. O'Gorman. of Saltwater,
Minn;" but it was merely for the pur-
| pose of completing small private deal.
Some of us gentlemen came down to

l had very little to do with it, but when ]
saw the newspapers this morning we
all laughed at the idea of our meeting to

all over Minnesota there are
mills that are turning out twenty
thousand feet day, and you cannot
bring SO many men together. There
has been boom company organized at
Minneapolis AMONG the large logging

THE ENsANGUINED GARMENT
To be Waved by Two Republican
Senators Soon,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-I is proba-
BILE that the fisheries debate in the sen
ate will be suspended on Monday for
the presentation of the conference re-
port on the navy appropriation bill: but
it is not expected that this will give rise
to extended debate. The treaty is to be
disposed of on Tuesday and is. to be
followed, according to present under
standing. by the Washington territory
bill, which has long been the unfinished
business on the legislative calendar of
the senate. The bills to admit North
Dakota and Montana are neyt on the
Republican caucus programme, and if
the week (Which is not likely the SEN
ate bill to repeal the pre-emption and
timber-culture laws and amend the
homestead law may be taken
up. During the week Senator
Wilson, of Iowa, will seek an
opportunity to speak on the Jackson,
Miss, election riots, and Senator Chan
dler will make speech on Louisville
elections. The attendance of members
in the house has fallen Off to point
where quorum can be obtained only
with difficulty, and single objection is
usually sufficient to defeat legislation.
For this reason it is probable that little
can be done this week beyond disposing
of the appropriation bills. The effort
to pass the general deficiency appropri-
alton bill will be renewed tomorrow or
Tuesday. Conference reports on the
army and navy appropriation bills are
also ready for action, and they will be
foil owed later in the week by the'con-
ference report on the Sundry civil ap-
preparation bill.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-The weather
crop bulletin for the week ending Sat
urday, Aug. Is, states that the weather
during the week has been favorable for
growing crops in the wheat and corn re-
gions of the Northwest, where reports
indicate the same crop prospects have
been improved. In Arkansas, Ten
nessee, Mississippi, Alabama and South
Carolina the weather during the week
was favorable, and the growing crops,
which were suffering from drought in
the early part of the week, were much
benefited by recent rains. Rain has
proved beneficial to the tobacco crop in
Kentucky, although the plant in some
sections has been prematurely ripened
by previous dry weather. In New
England and the middle Atlantic states
the weather during the week was gen
orally favorable for all growing crops.

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, OAK, Aug. 49,.
-Four Or five days ago band of Sioux

Tongue river. Surmising that thew

along the Tongue and Powder rivers, the
agent, refused to allow the reds to leave
the reservation. This morning it was
discovered that a large band of the
Sioux Indians had started for the home
of the CheyenneS, in defiance of the OBJ
jections interposed, leaving word that
they had got through obeying the orders
of the officers at Pine Ridge, and
that in future they intended to go
when they pleased and stay as long
as they pleased. This state of
affairs was telegraphed to Gen. Ruger.

out troops to intercept the reds. Yes

HIGH WINES TOO HIGH.
An Organization Which Would
Down the Whisky Trust.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 19.-Twenty-four
wholesale liquor dealers of st. Louis
have formed a combination to build a
gigantic distillery in this city. The
purpose of the organization is to di-
rectly oppose the whisky trust, which
has put the price of high wines at a
altogether too high in comparison with
distilled goods, notably the Kentucky
brands. The corporation is capitalized
at 100000 and it is proposed to put up
distillery with capacity of 200 barrels
per day. Nearly all of the stock has
been taken and there will be violent op-
position to the whisky trust from now ON.

He has been so conspicuous in fur

rectory, we find this:

Some innocent one at the Red Wing
convention which nominated Mr.. Hall
said:

He will realize his serious mistake
when he reads the above transcript
from the directory of st. Paul and learns
that the bulk of the fortune and inter-
ests of Mr.. Hall are in the real estate,
manufactures and livery stables of st.
Paul. and that for all practical purposes
his actual residence is here.
His time is spent here, his money is
here, he is regularly enrolled citizen
