CHIT CHAT CORNER.


States senatorial bee, in hopes of being
ultimately Stung to his ambitious con-
tent. is now known beyond peradvent-
ure: and that he would take feudiSh
pleasure in performing war dance
upon the political corpse of the senior
senator from Minnesota is equally GER
tain In fact, were it not for the fact
that incidental business cOmpli cations
in connection with the then uncom-
pleted 500 read rendered such a step
impossible, the former congressman
would have announced himself two
years ago, but with view of biding
lis time, he opposed no faction,
nor did he ally himself with one, but,
shutting himself up in his office, sawed
political wood. As result of his polit-
teal sagacity at that time he now hopes
to reap a substantial reward. As he did
not antagonize she Davis faction, they
iu turn will perform like Office for
aim, and inaSmuch as the last senator
halls from Ramsey county the choice
would be reasonably sure to fall to a
Hennepiu county man were Senator
Sabin out of the way.

Inasmuch as the Saltwater statesman
has hitherto antagonized VI. Fl. Dunnell,
the Republican candidate for con-
gress in the First district will
reciprocate with a vengeance when
the proper time comes, and as
a result will lay Senator Sabin on the
cooling board Both Senators Clough
and Swenson, of Hennepin, are known
to look with favor upon Mr.. WaShburn
as a senatorial candidate, and Will see
that his name is presented in caucus.
His record as president of the 500 road
will operate in his favor with the cOun-
try delegates, as he has succeeded
wherever his read has been thrown into
competition with the Manitoba in fore
ing down the prices. With such sub
Stantial credentials is the gentleman
from Hennepin now quietly shelling
the woods. with a view of finding out
the political pulse. and has already
taken the initiatory steps towards
sounding the state senators, irrespective
OF politics, as to whether or not they
will vote for him when his name is pre-
scented i'll caucus.

Judge Wilkin possesses the happieSt
of temperamentS and it is almost i'm
possible to ruffie the serenity of his dis
position. No one ever heard him kick,
and he gets along just as well as those
who are grumbling and fault-inding all
the while. The weather was cold and
disagreeable yesterday for a day in Sep
TENDER, and the temperature of the old
district court room was barn-like, to
say the least. There was no fire either
in the stove or the CRATE. Did the judge
rise up in his dignity and demand that
a fire be lighted? Oh, no. He just
same down from the bench a moment 10
ssat on his overcOat and when that was
2ne he took his seat again and told the
SSlorney to proceed with his argument.
Sheriff Richter had a smile that was
childlike and bland on his face yeSter-
day, for victory had perched upon his
banner in legal tilt with the city. For
some time past he has been harbOrng
at his official domicile Offenders against
the law, and it frequently became nee
honor at the municipal court. When
the sheriff takes a stroll with pris-
oner he isn't out for his health. The
law allows him so much per stroll and SO
much for the furnishing of daintieS to
t'dicky BIRDS" According to the sheriff's
figures S76.50 was about what was coming
to him for his services. The city
thought that SLID was lawful COM
pensatiOn and lawsuit was the result.
Judge SimOnS sustained the sheriff, Civ
ing it as his opinion that the act OF Feb.
%, 1897. was the law prescribing the
compensation the plaintiff was entitled
to for the services performed by him.

1.-The Labor ticket has come to STAY"
said j. A. Johnson. a member of the
state central committee of the Labor
party. 81 know it is said that the
movement will evaporate before No
vember is upon us, but | deny this, and
state that the Labor party who support
this ticket will fight to the end. If
Donnelly, or any of our candidates
withdraw, we will bring forward other
candidates. We expect our ticket will
get 10000 votes. There is dissatisfied
element in both the great parties. Some
are unsatisfied with Merriam, because
of his ''boOdle" propenSities, and others
dislike Wilson because he is really the
nominee of Pat Kelly and Michael
Doran. These voters will be drawn by
Donnelly to himself, and aided by the
pure farm and labor vote we are certain
Of 10000 votes throughout the state.'

A. G. POstlethwaite-I don't know
exactly what is TO be done with our
schools. Some of them are very much
crowded. We will soon have to build
more school houses in the center of the
city. West Seventh street needs a new
one, and just as soon as the Seventh
street cable line is built school build
Ing will have to be erected. The Cleve-
tand school is OyercrOwded. Several
rooms out on Arlington Hills will have
to be hired for temporary purposes till
new building can be erected. This
shows how the town is filling up with
people. Five years ago there was no
school house in Arlington Hills. don't
see exactly what we shall do, unless we
order the clerk of the district court not
to issue any more marriage licenses.

mission company was incorporated

citation is to be the handling of grain
and other farm products on commits
sion, or otherwise; also the owning and
operating of grain elevators or ware
houses. Minneapolis will be the bust
