The question now mainly agltatlng the
people Of the state, is the election of U. S.
senator by the legislature The legisla.
ture IS in session, but little business will
be attended to until that question is set,
tied The first ballot will be taken next
Tuesday. At the seat of war, the Mer-
chants, Washburn seems to be in the
lead, with sabin closely following and
Donnelly holding the balance of power
with % or 80 woes. OF the two, we
favor Washburn, and should like to see
the senatorial mantle fall upon his
shoulders. AS far as we haye been
able to make investigation in this
county the sentiments are very much
divided between the three leaders
While VIM. Window, Judge Start
and John p. Rea are fayoably
mentioned. We are sure that the choice
of our legislature will be good man and
one that will do credit to our flourishing
state. We hope that the senator may be
elected soon so that other important
matters may not be neglected.

There is certainly something wrong with

this town should not be troubled every
year with diphtheria epidemic.
