of a stroke of paralysis on the floor of
the house. The sundry civil appropria.

Mr.. Burns. who sits near him. that now
was the time for him (Mr. Burns) to
offer his amendment, about which he
had formerly consulted Mr.. Butterworth.
The answer retarned not being audible,
Mr.. B~utterworth approached Mr.. Burns
and discovered that he had an impede
ment in his speech and a sluggishness in.
his walk. The two leftthe chamber and
proceeded to the Otter porch, and the
fresh air temporarily benefited him.
He and Mr.. Butterworth then walked to
the appropriation committee room of the
house, where Mr.. Burns became rapidly
worse. He could not speak and soon
lost control Of his left side and became
unconscious. He was attended with
the greatest care and Representatives
Gallinger, Shaw and Atchison, who are
phi ysicians, were summoned from the
floor and everything possible done to re-
yIye him. In the meantime his physi.
clan, DIR. Sewers, was summoned. The
news of Mr.. Burns illness o become
known and the corridors were lined
with senators and congressman anxious
to learn his true condition. About 4
O'Clock Nh. Burns, still unconscious, was
removed to his hotel in an ambulance.

Missouri was born in Indiana Aug. 20,

Gov. Merriam, in fixing his wires for
the senatorial nomination, should re-
member that mems fates are dependent
on circumstances and that circumstan-
ces never depend on men. At present
everything looks favorable for G. K.
Davis. and it is not at all likely that
Bill Merriam will be able to direct the
forces that are working against him.
Therefore, unless great change takes
place in public sentiment within the
coming year, will not get within reach
of smell Of senatorial dignity.

In couple Of weeks all attention
will center on the new congress. AS
both houses will be safely republican,
the democrats Of the country, for few
months at least, will have to consent
to taking little Legislative medicine
of a republican flavor. Perhaps it may
not be the most pleasant to them, but
as this is The first time in several years
that we Lave had everything our own
way, they can hardly expect much, the
recent elections Notwithstanding. It's
republican congress and a republican
administration all around this year,

selves to look for republican legislation.

-
If all revolutions could be like the
Brazilian movement, it would be de-
sireable to have a change in every en-
pire. But it is impossible. In Brazil
alone of all the monarchies could re-
public have been effected in such
quiet and bloodless way. It was posi-
bic there more through circumstance
than anything else, and to their ex-ruler
is due as much credit as to any other
source. At the head of the Brazilian
empire for nearly fifty years, he no
doubt had the power to make his throne
sure if he so desired, but he did not. He
believed in giving his people the liber-
ties of a republic. while he retained the
title Of royalty only as long as his sub
jects were willing to submit. Had he
been sterner ruler, one who held to
power as he would to deity and one who
was prepared to defend his rank at all
risks, the revolution would not have
been the peaceful one that it was. Bra
I'll to-day might not be republic, had
not Dom Pedro, with the real greatness
which has characterized him throughout
all his life as wise governor, yielded to
the unanimous wish of his people. To
him therefore should be given the Gre
dit for the quietness for the change.

What New Ulm needs is few more
hustlers. We've got few, but we
need more, many more. They always
make d valuable acquisition to a place
and town without them IS in the same
boat as political party without
them, really no party at all, They are
a necessary factor and it is impossible
to get along for lack Of them. We donot
mean by that, that we need the busy
body, who creates commotion but ac-
complishes nothing, for such men are
better out of a town than in it, but it is
the man with purpose and the activi-
ty and push to carry out that purpose
that is wanted. Men who can stir
themselves in every public movement
and effect something. Men who are
always willing to work, whether others
do or not, Men who do not hold back
for a trifle. 1t is class like this that q
town is lucky in possessing, and that
every booming city must contain. It
is the class Of which we need more, than
we have got.
A convention Of Afro-American
leagues will be held in Nashville in
January for tile purpose of national or
ganization. This is significant and i'm
portant. It shows that the negroes are
dissatisfied with their present treatment;
that they are being goaded by the in
Justice that has for years been heaped
upon them; and that they are COM
mencing to think that there is a posi-
bility of having the rights, which be-
long to them and are yet denied, if not
through the peacable consent Of the
south, then through cooperative
and decisive action among them
selves. For this last purpose is this
coming meeting called, and it would be
well and wise for the stubborn ex-slave-
holders and their kin to begin to yield.
Public sentiment, that is this highest
is behind the negro, and he will be as
sisted in his fight for constitutional
rights. He is not alone. He will have
plenty Of backing when his time shall
have come.

The jury in the famous Co1lum for
gerry trial failed to agree, standing eight
for acquittal and four for conviction.
This decision will necessitate another
expensive trial and it may DO as fruit
less and perhaps more so than the first.
But under the present jury system that
is all that can be expected. There is no
way of avoiding it. The law provides
for such regulations and it is difficult
to bring about a change. Of course it
is all wrong, but Legislators, or big
share of them, are timid and are afraid
to tackle a law that is upheld by the
customs and beliefs Of former genera
tons. They need a few more such cases
as this to prove to them that a unani-
nous verdict, which at present is nee
essary, is no more positive evidence
than a two-thirds vote; that the latter
is just as good in all cases, and that
erring decisions would be no more FREE
quent under a new rule than under the
present notify practice. In the eastern
states the change is being brought
about and even Dakota is so far
ahead Of US as to adopt the two-thirds
system. We should think our legisla-
tors would see these things, and keep
| abreast of the times,

In Washington and South Dakota
very little trouble was experienced in
the selection of United States Senators.
The best men were hit upon, their quail
ifcations were placed before people in
their true light, and, when the time Of
election came around, the proper men
were chosen without a hitch or jar.
Would that as much could be said of
Minnesota! Here Doodle is rampant
and the honor of the representatives of
the people is subjected to the seyerest
strain. It yields, and the richest in
stead Of the best of our party men are
elected to high positions. It is q de-
plorable state of affairs, but it is only
too probable that Dakota and Washing
ton will go the way of the rest. Min
nesota started well, but corruption in
political leaders has caused her early
to slide from the grooves Of honesty
and purity in politics. What has been
done here can be done under like
circumstances in the new states
The change will present itself and.
unless the people profit BY Minnesota's
lesson, corruption will work itself
in. But it is to be hoped that they
will avoid it Doodle for every state
Of the Union would cause utter de-
SPAR Of political reform, but Doodle out
Of the new states would make the pros
poets seem heap brighter.

The friends of John H. Thomp-

are determined to push him into
the race for County Judge next
time, We take pleasure in saying
that we believe him to lie one of
the most straightforward, honora-
Bile menin the county and that he
would make most acceptable
county judge. In his public SER
vice he has shown himself to pos
sess the ability necessary to a judi
cious discharge Of public duties !;
and that he has the executive abili-
ty and good common sense tine Of
flee demands. The News does not
advocate the cause of any particu-
lar Democrat before the convention
dominates, but it is but justice to a
worthy man to notice his deserving
qualities.
Ii has been reported that Mr..
Thompson's relations were such
that he would not be strictly loyal
to his party in the coming election.
We have the best assurance that
the report is wholly untrue.
