THERE is liable to be a sharp contest in
Iowa over the United States senatorship.
There is a strong element within the re-
publican party opposed to the reelection
of senator Wilson. Col. Hepburn is his
strongest opponent.

SENATOR SHERMAN favors the issue Of
bills to national banks to the full par
value of the bonds deposited by them to
secure the bills. At present but ninety
per cent. of the par value of the bonds is
issued in notes to a national bank. The
effect of this amended law would be to
put several millions of dollars of ad.
ditional currency into the channels Of
business.

THE st. Cloud Journal Press treated it's
readers to mammoth double number
last week, and it is a very creditable piece
OF Journalistic enterprise, besides setting
forth volume of statistical information
of interest and value. That it's figures are
trifie exaggerated does not detract from
the fact that St. Cloud is not only pros
pering at present, but is destined to be a
city of no mean Importance and proper
lions. After due allowance for ambition
and pride, there is plenty left to indicate
that ambition and pride are thoroughly
justified by substance and promise.

SWAPPING TAFFY.

The secretary of the interior, Mr.
Lamar, having been nominated to a seat
on the supreme bench, which he may OF
may not secure, as there is almost uni,
versal determination on the part of the
republican senator's to vote against his
confirmation on the ground that he is
not fitted for the position, sent letter
of resignation to the president, which
elected a reply which indicates that the
eiri~f and l,is subordinate are both rare
dispensers of taffy of the most unadulter-
ated type. The following is the COT
respondence:
To THE PRESIDENT: When, some
months ago, you invited me to accept
the vacant judgeship in the supreme
court, you expressed the wish that as the
court was not in session, should post
pone the resignation of my present Office
until the meeting of congress allowed
you to send my nomination to the senate,
and there were certain matters before the
department inaugurated by me, which it
was therefore, desirable that ! should
close before leaving. As l would have
been very reluctant to take the place up
on the bench until your nomination had
been confirmed by the senate, I cheerfully
consented to your request. My nomina-
ton has now been submitted to the SEN
ate and, recognizing both their right and
duty to subject it's fitness to the most
critical examination, would still wait
in my present position their decision.
But think am warranted in supposing
that the final decision may be delayed
some time. AS you have at the same
time nominated my successor in this de-
partment and his successor in the post
office department, this delay may to
some extent at least embarrasS the admin
istration of the public business in the
departments mentioned. To avoid such
embarrassment, which is my duty to you
and to the country, and to leave before
the senate in its final judgment upon my
nomination the sole question of my fit
ness for the position, disassociated from
any other nomination and unaffected by
any other considerations, now respect
fully ask you to accept my resignation
as secretary of the interior, which I
tons to you as a member of your official
laInlly, ueSlle TO express my grateful
sense of the obligation l am under to you
personally for the consideration and kind
ness which have always characterized
your treatment of me, and for the gener-
GUS confidence and support which you
have steadily given me in the trying and
tduous administration of this depart
mt. shall always be proud to have
associated with the honorable
I'd which you will leave upon the
of your country's history. Sincere
respectfully yours,
L. Q. c. LAMAR, Secretary.

CONGRESSMAN MACDONALD of Mime
sofa, has introduced pension bill which
does away with much of the red-tape
proceedings now required to secure a
pension, with the additional advantage
OF making it possible for many deserving
old soldiers to procure pensions who are
now debarred On pure technicalities. The
penalties for abuse of the modified law
are exceedingly severe, as they ought to
be. The law may be open to serious
objection, but they do not appear upon
the surface, and Mr.. Macdonald is en-
titled to the gratitude of thousands of
deserving old soldiers whose claims have
been impeded by the rigid exactions of
the pension department.

FOR OONGRESS-A. BART0.

The announcement at the head of this
article is made advisedly, and with the
fullest determination on the part of his
friends to stand by it, with all that the
>--..as imply, --...;I the result of the de-
liberation of the congressional conven-
ton is announced, and he and his friends
at this time pledge their hearty support
to the nominee of that convention. In
bringing forward Gov. Barto as a con-
gressional candidate due reference is had
to the claims of other aspirants, and
the HERALD desires briefly to urge those
of its candidate, confident that all that
it may say now and in the future will be
readily assented to throughout the fifth
district. To him in pre-eminent degree
do the republicans of central and northern
Minnesota owe debt of gratitude for
devoted and effective services in their be-
half. Not a canvass of any Importance
for the past twenty years, during his
entire residence in Minnesota, but he has
given the ticket his active support both
in conventions and on the stump. His
voice has been raised in no feeble way,
year after year, not only throughout this
district, but in every corner of the state.
His political record is one of thorough
consistency, advocating in season and
out of season the principles of the party
and the claims of its candidates. In
state, district and county conventions he
has been active, and while he may have
fought losing fight there, he has never
refused nor neglected to give his most
cordial support to the nominees. While
his preferences have been strong, yet he
has ever held the claims of his party as
paramount to those of any individual
within the party; and so he will in the
matter of his own candidacy.
Since the organization of the fifth dis
trict he has been foremost in every cam
paign in behalf of the nominee, as well as
of all state and local candidates of the
party.
AS to his fitness for the place, it is 81
universally recognized that it
needs reiteration. While
man he cast his lot y
sofa, and has mr.
the de~ =, ~
