Mr.. DoNNELLY has unbosomed himself
on the matter Of his Senatorial candida-
cy. He says he lie candidate for sena-
tor in good faith, and hopes to win. de
believes he will have more votes on the
first ballot than either Mr.. Sabin or Mr..
Washburn; and he Is the second choice
of a majority ofthe friends of both Wash.
burn and Sabin. He has no promise Of
any Office from Mr.. Sabin or any one
else. President Harrison has no office
outside of the cabinet land that he
knows he couldn't get), which he would
accept. He can make more money by
bookmaking than any federal Office
would yield him. II he was elected to
the senate he would % there, not to per
petuate old feuds or seek new revenge
but to do good to the state and its peo
Pile. Ifhe was not elected he would
pursue the even tenor of his way. He
has grown 80 used to disappointment
and defeat that he regards it as part o
his regular, steady diet, and he nigh
suffer sort of mental indigestion If he
didn't get his usual quantity. The sage

Mr.. ORvILLE BROWN of this city sent 6
communication to the Winona Repubi
can day or two since IN which he takes
occasion to discuss personalities anen'
Senator Sabin, and his opposition to the
reelection of that gentleman is based
chiefly upon an imaginary conspiracy
entered into by the Senator to defeat
Mr.. Window six years ago. To this let
ter of hostility Mr.. Sinclair, editor of the
Republican, and one of the staunchest OF
ex Senator WINDOWS friends and one o.
the fairest editors in the state replies:
"At that time it believed Mr.. Sabin who
proved to be the beneficiary of Mr.
WINDOWS defeat, and who had through.
out the contest professed to be that gen.
tleman's warm supporter-it believed
Mr.. Sabin to have been an active though
secret agent in bringing about the condi-
ton of things resulting in his own eleva-
ton at the expense of his friend. Since
then, however, facts have been devel-
oped leading to a modification of this
Judgment, and because of this the Repub-
Ecdn has felt impelled: in that interest
alike of justice to Mr.. Sabin and of its
own selt-respect, to give him the benefit
Of every reasonable doubt-at least so
far as to refrain from crIticising his Sen
atoriai career in spirit of rancor or hos
tiity inspired by past suspicion of his fl
delIty to Mr.. Window in the election OF
six years ago. In pursuance of this inn
pulse, it has resolved to judge Mr.. Sabin
in the present contest on the basis OF
such standing as he has acquired during
his incumbency of the Office he now has.
While by no means supporting that gen.
tleman's candidacy for reelection, it be-
lieves that in this year of general Repub-
lican forgivness and of resulting jubilee
it would be unwise, from party stand
point, to indulge in denominations and
personal resentments. Furthermore,
it objects-positIvely objects-to being
forced to take Mr.. Sabin's past guilt, real
or imaginary, for the purpose of using it
asa lever wherewith to foist Mr.. Wash
burn into the Senate"
Coming as this does from the pen of
one who for years welded wide influ-
ence in the support of Mr.. Window, and
emanating fromthe innermost conscience
of journalist whose reputation for fair
ness and honesty is more than state wide,
it would seem that the public should not
hesitate in their choice for Senator. If
those who are SO loud in their denunci-
ton of Senator SabIn would take the
pains to investigate his connection with
Mr.. WINDOWS overthrow six years ago
they will find that their whole grievance
is imaginary. He had no hand whatev-
er in that transaction and was candi-
date only after Mr.. WINDOWS defeat
was dead moral certainty.
Mr.. Dunnell and Capt. Castle are re-
sponslble for WINDOWS defeat, and no
one knows this better than the men who
are trying throw the odium upon Mr..
Sabin.

Following is the report of the grand

THE report comes from New York City
that James G. Blame will soon assume
the managing editorship of one of the
country's magazines, The gossips are
always finding something for Mr.. Blaine
to do. This man would have him in
General Harrison's cabinet, that one
would send him to the United States
Senate, another would again place him
in the authors chair, and others haye
picked out for him a foreign mission. or
some other place. Probably the posi-
ton Mr.. Blaine most covets is that of a
private citizen, with the right to attend
to his personal affairs without the inter
vention of gossips or the publicity SO dis
tasteful to other citizens, But this is
manifestly just what the busy-bodies are
not willing he should not be allowed.

day. He says he is paired for a short
time with Senator Kenna, of West vir-

city and full Of very agreeable Office
seekers and cabinet advisers. He dis.
claims having gone there on such mis-
slons himself. AS to the senatorial fight
Mr.. Sabin seemed disposed to think he
knows more than he cares to tell al
