Speaking Of the case Of the Chicago

1
Speaking of the case Of the Chicago
anarchists L. G. Spooner said: 1T Is
one Of the most. damnable outrages
ever committed upon American soil;
and the people Of Chicago are thor.
onghly awakened to this fact. Attic
time Of the trial nine-tenths of the
people of that city were in favor OF
their execution. but If those men
were alive today and a popular vote
were taken, it is safe to say that seven
ont of every eight would favor COM
mutation of the sentence" And Mr..
Spooncr is not the man to jump at
conclusions As lawyer he has
taken a natural interest in the case,
has followed closely all Of the pro.
cecdings and understands the case in
all its details as well as any outside
Of the attorneys directly interested.
While he deprecates the throwing of
the bomb, divorcing himself from all
sympathetic feelings he is forced to
the above conclusion from a full
knowledge OF the case as to its merits.
In this endorsement by an able law.

most of readers as a coolheaded man

THE TARIFF ISSUE.

A Washington correspondent to
the Chicago Herald says:
in the Minnesota delegation is Al
handsome, stout, middie-aged gentle
man-Judge Macdonald. lie is a
Scotchman, and the finger marks of
old Scotia are still to be noticed in
his manner and words. lie has the
broad Scotch dialect and the rugged,
forcible speech of his race. lie re-
presents a district that has been Re.
publican for many years, and would
still have Republican representa-
tive, doubtless, had it not been for
the ambition of Ignatius Donnelly to
get back to congress. Mr.. Donnelly
is famous in the Northwest rs 4 vote
getter. and three years ago made a
desperate canvass against Major
Strait, the old Republican member.
reducing his majority from $4,000
down to 800. At the last congress
sional election Judge Macdonald had
a foregone victory from the start.
81 am very anxious said the new
member, THAT this congress should
do something with the tariff. My
people are for tariff reform, aud ON
that issue the whole state is aroused.
There are many Scandinayians in my
district, and throughout the state
some 10000, ] believe, and it is their
custom to vote solidly for what they
want. In the old country they en-.
joy free trade. While they have
affiliated in our state for twenty-five
years with the Republican party,
they are becoming weary. and fee
the party doctrine of protection some
what irksome. When 1 was on the
stump year ago great tall, stalwart

what it is and why we do not get it.

Matrimonial.

If these are dull times then the
marriage record of Stevens county
furnishes no corrborative testimony
to prove il; for it is the pleasure.of
THE Sun this week to note an un-
usual large number of matrimonial
events of late occurrence; in each of
which either ,.one of the county's
sturdy sons or fair daughters, or of
both, are the interested parties. The
mountains of snow, the savage biz
zard and the impossible roads is no
deterrent to the plans of those who
have determined to step from the i'll.
dependent state of single blessedness
and enter in that of the holy bonds
wedlock. Nothing is hard or i'm
possible to them.
