FOR Sheriff..

But a few weeks at most will elapse
between this and the time for placing in
nomination candidates for county offices
to supply the places of those whose
terms will expire with the present year.
While it is pretty early and entirely too
warm warm to forecast the probable
winners in the Republican convention,
it is not too soon to begin casting about
for available and desirable timber.
The present occupant of the Office of
sheriff, Mr.. c. HI. Piper, who has made
a model official and whose renomina-
ton and election would be mere mat
ter of form did he consent to accept a
second term, gives it out to his friends
that he will retire from public service at
the expiration of his term now drawing
TO a close, and this announcement being
made in earnest gives other aspirants an
opportunity to seek favors which they
would otherwise refuse to even enter
taiu,, let alone ask for.
The only prominently mentioned
name for this office so far before the
Republicans of the county is that of
Marshall Fall. of Rapidan. Mr.. Fall
needs no introduction to our people for
his residence in Blue Earth county for
thirty-two years, with the exception OF

bellion, has won for him the highest es-
TEEN of all citizens. His life has been
devoted to agricultural pursuits, and he
is counted to-day among the best farm
ers in this section. For seven years he
has managed the Nelson farm most sue
cessfully, and his judgment on agricul-
ture is frequently sought by many of our
most prosperous farmers ALWAYS a
consistent Republican, ready to do a
friend favor when called upon, he has
never asked nor caught an Office at the
hands of bis party. And he would not
now had he not been so persistently
urged by many of his warmest friends
to enter the canvass for sheridan office
that he is admirably fitted to successfully
and satisfactorily administer.
When the proper time shall arrive

will do well to consider Mr.. Falls rela.
tons to his party, and the claims that
will be set forth for his nomination

Shocking Accident.

So read the headlines of newspaper
column, and we peruse with FACILITATING
interest the details of the catastrophe,
and are deeply impressed by the sacri-
flee of human lives involved. Yet thou
sands of men and women are falling VIC
Tins every year to that terrible disease,
consumption (scrofula of the lungs, and
they and their friends are satisfied to
believe the malady incurable. Now,
there could be no greater mistake. No
earthly power, of course, can restore a
lung that is entirely wasted, but DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will
rapidly and surely arrest the ravages of
consumption, if taken in time. Do not,
therefore, despair, until You have tried
this wonderful remedy.

less more, no doubt and therefore he
favors putting the pumping station at
the river so that when the well gets
ehoked up that the river with its accum-
ulation of filth may be resorted to. II
is queer that with the recent express
sions of public sentiment on the ques-
ton that anybody should propose taking
water from the Minnesota riyer-in
small or large quantities-filtered
through wells or otherwise. The peo-
Pile will not have it, and just as certain
as the mistake is made of making the
river, directly or indirectly, the source
of supply, or the reliance in case of
emergency, just so sure will the city
have a water works plant on its hands
which will not receive public support.

THE First District Republicans, through
factional differences and internal strife
lost their Congressman two years age, and
the situation at this time is anything but
encouraging II Dunnell is nominated
the fight will be renewed with all vigor
and the result win be that Wilson will
be returned to congress. There are
plenty of able men in the district who
can unite the party and 1t seems the

third, the word as preached as means
of grace; fourth, the justification by
faith. 1t was very brilliant address.
