The jury in the Lewis Hite and

deliberated long time and brought
in verdict of guilty, with a recon-
mendation for mercy. Poor Lewis.
There is nothing bad about him.
Works like horse when he had
work, generally odd jobs for every.
body and very little pay,-incompe-
tent in fact to do business for himself
do all the hard work at a days butch
ing, and when asked what he charg-
ed, said, ooh, 1 guess about Is cents

mental capacity. The penny-dog for
everybody and seldom a beggar's
pay. Hungry and homeless, he
would have starved long ago but for
welcome place at Mrs. Britner's and
Mrs. Anderson's tables. The sentence
is one year in the penitentiary. His
prosecutors should be satisfied, and
we hope it may be the best for him
in the end.

An excursion has been planned for
the first of May, for the purpose OF
giving our Canadian noighbors an
opportunity of visiting many Of the
principal cities of the United States
and showing them what wonderful
farm is Uncle SANS. All of the mems
bers of the Canadian parliament and
many other prominent Canadians Will
be invited. Three solid Pullman
trains will leave Suspension bridge
about May LIST, for Buffalo. where the
tour OF Inspection will commence.
From there the excursionists will GO
to Cleveland. Pittsburgh, Chicago and
then to other large cities of the west
and south. A number ofsenators and
members of congress will accompany
the excursion as guides for the visitors.
This excursion is undoubtedly gotten
up for the purpose ofcreating a strong
er feeling among the Canadians In
favor of annexation to the United
States. Later i'm the season it Is pro-
posed to have the Interstate COM
merce commissioners visit Canada,
calling at every point where railroad
communication between the two
countries exists, and the result of their
Investigation is expected to do a great
deal To ward smoothing matters be-
tween the two countries. Senator

The TRIBUNE asserted few weeks
since that an old soldier stood nc
chance OF obtaining a position from
the hands of our legislators who haG
the power OF securing one for him
Tiiatlnstead of livingup to the law In
relation to giving old soldiers the
preference, favors were bestowed upon
those fellows who cl:,ilned to have
done a certain amount of dirty politi.
cal work during the campaign. IL
other words, the cler!ssilips and othei
positions were dealt out To pay politi
cal debts.
We have seen no reason to change
our opinion in relation 10 this matter
And further, we believe with the Min.
neapolis Star, that tie efforts of Rep,
resentative Benson and others tc
reform the gross abuse that has crepl
into the legislature under the guise OF
committee clerksliips ought to enlist
the sympathy and aid ofall who are
interested fin M economical admins
tration of the government. That
these clerkshIps are in the main par
celled out by members to henchmen
and in the payment of political debts,
is fact that no candid, truthful man
will deny. The committees which
really require the services of clerks
are few in number, and any unneces-
sary additions are simply in the ma
ture of steals. The condition of the
finances of the state is such as to
render the strietest economy upon all
who are entrusted with the admins
tration of its affairs q matter of prime
necessity. The reputation which the
present legislature has made for itseli
is not of the best now, and unless IL
calls halt and takes the back track
in some of it's methods it will 60 down
in history with record that will
make it a by-word aud a shame.

During tho debate in the q. s..
senate over the naval bill, few days
since, Senator Hale paid Secretary of
the Navy Whitney a well deserved
compliment for the manner In which
he has managed the affairs of.his de-
partment. Tie senator said that III
i've years the United States would
have the best navy in the world.
Much of the success which had char
acterized the present Administrations
of the navy department Ito which he
was glad to bear testimony had been
owing to the hearty holding up Of the
secretary's hands by majority OF the
senate opposed to- him in politics.
The secretary had been careful in his
methods; lie had encouraged Ameri-
can inventors. American enterprise
and American skill; and now the.
United States has some of the best
ships that are to be found today on
the waters of tie globe. Tile present
secretary of the navy had been only
able to launch six or seven new ships;
but his successor would be able during
the next four years to launch 10 or 70,
or 25 or 80 of the finest armed. and
equipped ships on the waters Of the
globe. Then the United States would
have the very best navy in tie world.

The TRIBUNE heartily endorses the
following from the st. Cloud Journal
Press: A bill has been introduced by
Senator Nachbor providing that legal
notices may be published in a news
paper after it has been printed six
months, instead ola year as at present.
This bill should be Indefinitely post
poned. Its only purpose would be to
encourage the stsrtlng of new papers
where there was no legitimate demand
for them, to the detriment of those
already established. A paper which
cannot live without this sort of pat
ronage had better go out OF business,
and paper which has shown its
ability to make its way oil, its merits
ought to be strengthened, instead of
being weakened through the starting
of rival paper.
