Mrs. w. NJ. Todd.

The first intelligence received at
this place of the death of the wife of
w. NJ. Todd, formely of the Reveille
was in Thursdays papers. Mrs.
Todd's death came very suddenly on
Tuesday, and from advices received
here through one of her former cor
respondents, it appears that the fatal
attack came on while Mrs. Todd was
reaching up to arrange a window cur
tain, the supposed cause being cere-
bral hemorrage. Mrs. Todd was a
esident here but little: more than a
year, but won universal respect and
warm friends in the immediate circle
of her acquaintance. The following
particulars of biographical nature
are from the Marshall News essen-
ger:
Mr.. Todd was among our pioneer
residents, and the spring of 1877
married Miss Iona A. Bailey, Of
Winona. The deceased was lady of
most amiable disposition and quickly
won wa m friendship among the peo-
pie of Marshall. She was a graduate
of the Winona normal school, and a
teacher of the schools in Winona and
and Rochester. The family removed
from Marshall to Tracy about 1880,
where they remained few years, re-
moving to Redwood Falls in the fall
of 1885. Two years later Mr.. Todd
was appointed deputy state insurance
commissioner, and made his residence
at Hamlin, where he has since resided.
We believe they have four children. 1t
was Mr.. Todd's first intention to have
his wife buried in the Marshall ceme-
terry, where they have child buried,
but later it was decided to take the
remains to his wife's former home,
Winona, which was done on Thurs
day. Mr.. Todd and his little ones
have the deepest sympathy of his
MANY friends in his bereavement,

charge of large business, 1 have con-
cluded to sell all,,goods on'a cash bas-

ST. PAUL LETTER.
Speci II Correspondents

Speci ii Correspondents
That Gov. Merriam has senatorial
aspirations aspirations to defeat Sen
ator Davis-was clearly proven in the
unseating of Mr. Searles, a pronounced
Davis man last week, and giving the
seat to a democrat, j. S. O'Brien. The
evidence in the case showed the cleo
ion of either to be doubtful, but the
law expressly provides that where such
Is the case the man holding the certifi-
cate should be given the seat. But
this was not done. Gov. Merriam saw
in it, if it had been done, an Their vote
for Davis, and as Mr.. O'Brien was one
of his appointments on the prison
board, he counts on him leading a
break two years hence, in case the Re-
publicans have not enough votes to
elect senator. His promises of a
judgeship to Mr.. Searles if the latter
would step out proves that, and shows
to what a depth of corruption tie is
willing to descend in order to satisfy
his passion. In connection with this,
also, it is we'll to question the motives
of the Ninth district senator, who has
been instructed for Davis, but who
may be looking forward to another
split as in the time of the senatorial
contest at which the late Mr.. Window
was defeated. Mr.. Peterson was a
member of the committee on elections,
signed the report favoring O'Brien and
voted for the seating of that gentle
man-all without ever offering to ex-
plain himself.
Mr.. Turrell informs me that he will
soon present the measure to reimburse
Redwood county for the trials of the
two murderers, Rose and Holden. He
is becoming thoroughly acquainted
with the members, and the county need
have no fear but what his success will
be far superior to any other per-
son she could have placed on the floor.
In his place he is ever watchful of the
interests of the state. He is the arbi-
traitor of the factions and smooths
their differences and difficulties with
the tenderness of one CLASSY wave roll
ing over another under the impulse
of soft, gentle breeze moving under
a June sky. He is listened to with
interest and respect, every word that
falls from his honest lips sinking deep
ly into the hearts of all members with
a feeling that Mr.. Turrell is always in
the right; his Legislative beacon is the
constitution of M nnesota which he
has sworn to support, and in which he
sees glowing the glorious principles
of right, truth and justice to all the
people; his dearest interests are in
Redwood county, and he closely watch
es and trains his course with a careful
hand, reaching out for something to
benefit it's Observation-Disclosures, pro-
fessional and business men alike.
