Sniler is said to think that the people 0i
the Northwest are more interested in
securing the So, 600 600 for the 500 canal.
and it is folly to suppose that congress
will pass more than one bill for the
Twin Cities at one session. The state

The Bachelor. Gfnter assault case &C
cnpied the greater part OF the afternoon
IN the municipal court Tuesday last.

ened Bachelors eyes. but he pleaded as
an excuse that B .tchelor, ~ho is the
janitnr of the Lowell school. had kissed
Mr. Ginter's 10 year old daughter Ada.
Bachelor emphaticallv denied that he
had done anything of the kind. or had
ever taken liberties with the little girls.

eide whether Bachelor had told the
truth or not. as that did not affect the
