The Sank Centre HERALD wants to
know if the St. Cloud Times will show
consistency by demanding that its own
party make NJ nomination against
Judge Searle this fall? This is what the
Times ought to do.-Princeton Union.
And that is just what the Times will
do. We are opposed to drawing the Sc
lection o fjudges into the dirty mire of
political struggles" and when any one
of our supreme or district court Judges
is worthy and competent, we shall favor
his retention regardless of politics. 1t
was this feeling which prompted us to
support Judge Baxter to the utmost of
our ability, and it is this feeling which
moves us nov to insist that the demo-
Gratis shall not only make no nomination
against Judge Searle, but that the same
course shall be pursued as to Judge Col
Inns, of the supreme court. There will be
no democratic nomination against Judge
Searle. If his own party will nominate
him, there will be acquiescence on the
part of the democracy, as to Judge Col
Inns, so far as we know or can influence
the result i'll our humble way.-Tin1es.
That is the correct doctrine, and it
gives the HERALD pleasure to commend
the Times for thus rising above mere par
ti~sanship.
JUDGE SEARLE has been requested by
every member of the bar in the Seventh
Judicial district, to be a candidate for re-
election, andhe will accept this as a nonm-
i~nation, without the intervention of any

advocates him; and the principal of a
non-partisian-bench. But of this, more
later. The announcement reaches the
HERALD as it goes to press.

MINNESOTA NEWS.
GOV. mcclLL ON HIGH LICENSE.

He Explains the Provisions and
Probable Effect of the High Ii
cense Law in letter to New
York Paper.
The following letter, was written by Gov.
McGill in reply to a letter from A. =. Mil
Ter, Of the New York Mail and Express,
asking for informatio regarding the effects
OF the high license law in Minnesota:
ST. Paul, Jan. 6, 1SS8.-OWing to the
time at which licenses were issued the law
did not 60 into effect in this city until an
1, and in consequence OF the delay in pre-.
pairing for the law here, saloonkeepers were
granted until about Feb. l, prox., in
which to comply with it's requirements, SO
that it will be impossible at this time to
state any concise facts regarding results
tions the law throughout the state
is in force, and, generally stated,
there has been a reduction in
the number of saloons OF over 1,6OO.
While the effects of the law with regard to
the dimunition OF drunkenness must ma
turally be OF a more or less speculative de-
nomination, still there are many facts
which fairly warrant an inference that
there is much less than before the law
went into operation. AS evidence OF this
Iquote you the opinion OF Bishop Ireland,
together with some OF his personal obser-
vations in the southern half OF the state,
known as the parish OF ST. Paul:
I'm Winona," said the bishop, ''there is
q very large Polish population, perhaps
eight hundred families, mainly composed
OF mill hands, and formerly there was a
good deal OF intemperance among them.
There is now but one saloon in Winona in
stead OF ten, and the bank deposits of
The Polish people are unusually large. Cal
edonia, Houston county, was formerly
composed OF a large drinking population.
Now there, are but four saloons where
there were formerly fifteen. In many
Of the smaller places drunkenness
has disappeared altogether. Kill
kenny, formerly a constant source OF dis
order, is now one OF the quietest villages
In the state. All classes OF people are
pleased-Germans, Polanders and French
all through the country. Ii there was
popular vote to-day rs to high license in
Minnesota the majority would be over
whelmingly in its favor. It is the solution
OF the temperance question; it's benefits
are already appreciated by the people,
and it would be impossible to change the
high license law of Minnesota to-day. The
financial feature OF the Minnesota law is
one of it's many admirable features
1t is doubtful if any one in the state is
better able to judge of the general effect of
this law with respect to drunkenness than
Bishop Ireland, and have therefore quot
ed him at some length. What the opera
tion of this law may be in St. Paul, it is,
OF course, difficult to say; but the number
ofapplications already made is misleading
rs to the number OF licenses that will be
taken out, from the fact that time yet re-
mairs fnr the saloonkeepers to determine
whetl'rr or not they will continue to sell
under ina new law. 1t is not probable
that there will be more than $50 licenses
taken out in this city, where hereto
lore there have been $50 saloons. Very
truly, yours. A. R. MCG1LL.

the crowd as high as $1,000, but the

weather was perfect, Many people
were unable to reach the battle

noon owing to the crowded condition of
the cars. About thousand people
passed the previous night on the grounds
and by noon the lnrgc grove was simply
swarming with visitors. The tabernacle,

CHICAGO, Oct. IA special dispatch
from Minneapolis says: NJ. j. Herp-
mann, OF this city, who has been inves-
tigating the condition of the farmers in
Ramsey county, Dakota, who were re-
ported to be estarying to death, returned
last night. He says there are seventy
families who are absolutely destitute of
food and fuel, and something must be
done, and Immediately. The real con-
'dition OF the people is beyond descrip-
ton. Men, women and children arc in
rags, and they have not cent OF money
in the world. Their crops were totally
destroyed and their land, stock and farm
implements are mortgaged. Absolute
distress prevailed everywhere. A min
lister was living in one room with his
wife and two small children. One OF
the latter was wrapped up in a crib in
order TO keep it warm, and the other was
blue and shivering with cold, and ema-
ciated with hunger. There was no fuel,
with the exception OF little dry ma
nuro, which is all that any of the fami-
lies have TO burn, and the only thing
they had to eat was dry crust OF bread.
Mr.. Herpmann says the frost, which
came in August, destroyed all the wheat
there was rs well rs the vegetables, even
those which are rs hardy as turnips.
