The death of Mr.. Fish was briefly an
nounced last week. On Thursday even-
ing his remains were taken to Redwood
Falls for burial, accompanied by his sons
and daughter.
MMr. Fish was born in Cornwall, Eng,
and came to this country in 1855. set
Ting in Illinois. He removed to Red
wood Falls, in this state, in 1868, where
he resided until a year ago, when he re-
moved to this city in order to be with
his three sons who were here. and his
only daughter, who kept house for him.
He has been1ll for several months, and
gradually faded away until the end came.
Since the death of his wife, little more
than year ago. he has been broken in
health, and although always cheerful,
yet he welcomed the close of life OF
peace and usefulness. He was singularly
affable and pleasant, an upright christian
gentleman who won hosts of friends. To
know him was to respect him. He leaves
seven children, four of whom reside here,
and three sons at Redwood Falls.
The funeral at Redwood Falls was
held at the Methodist church on Friday
afternoon, Rev. Mr., Williams officiating
About thirty-6ve of the older citizens
met the body at the train, acting as pail
bearers and escort. His remains were
laid at rest in the family lot, beside his
wife, who had preceded him a little more
than a year.

Mr.. DoNNELLY.

A jury composed of Hennepin County
citizens has set cash valuation upon
the political reputation and legislative
character of Ignatius Donnclly by render
ing verdict for him in the now famous
libel suit OF Donnrlly VS.. the Pioneer
Press in which damages Of 500, 900
were demanded for defamation. The
case was tried upon its merits--that is
the paper sought to justify its utterances
by proving them truthful-and the
charges were such as would naturally
disqualfv any one from even asking for
support for any Office of trust within
the gift of the people. It was nothing
less than corruption-selling vote and
influence while in congress for money;
and bribery-offefin and paying money
to members of the legislature for votes
for himself for the United States senate.
These charges were made by Col. VS..
King ina letter addressed to Mr.. Dom
nelly in 1880, then published. and re-
printed last winter by the3Pioneer-Press,
anu THAT WAS luC pioNoSaeioho Va wis
suit.
Mr.. Dounelly brought this suit in Hen
nepin county because he thought there
was feeling in Minneapolis against the
Pioneer-Press which would be Of advan-
tage to HIM. He invoked to his aid the
recent census war which was waged so
vigorously and yiciously between the
cities of Minneapolis and st. Paul.
Mr.. Donnelly secured a verdict which
measured the damages the jury believed
he had sustained-a verdict for one dol
lar.
There is melancholy side to the event
of this suit-that man who might have
been so great, can be scaled so small by
his fellow citizens. But yet the yerdictis
merely ironic. He who has charged
corruption upon everybody who differed
from him IN opinion, when openly charged
with corruption is unable to make de-
tense which will save his reputation or
character from contempt. His chickens
are roosting at home. He sowed whirl-
winds and reaped cyclone.

GOOD REASONS.

Under the head of Few Becauses-
the Prince Union tells why it supports
Hon. Knute Nelson for Governori 1892.
1t covers the ground so thoroughly and
cogently that the HERALD gives the
article:
1t might do us good if Bob DUN of the
Princeton Union, would give us some
calm, cold truth. We hear that he is
out in his brisk way for Knute Nelson
for governor. Say, Bob. are you for
Knute because he voted for the Mills
bill, because he is Jim Hills lawyer, or
because he is Norwegian. Honest,
now, because which?-[ Albert Lea
Standard. A short horse is easily cur
ried and the mugwump editor OF the
Standard is easily answered. Fist and
foremost we arefor knute Nelson because
he is typical American citizen-he Is an
American every inch OF him from the
ground up, although he can not: trace
his ancestry back to the witch-bnrning
Puritans of Massachusetts,. We are for
Knute Nelson because he has the courage
of his convictions and darcs to do what
he believes to be right and wilt not sub
NIT to dictation from party "bosses' Or
am nOIcr Suf-
tors. We are for KRute Nelson because
we believe him to he thoroughly honest
and incorruptlble man. We are for
Knute Nelson because if he is elected
governor Of Minnesota we believe he
will act for the lest interests Of the
people of the entire State. We are for
Knute Nelson because we believe he can
he elected. Fhese are q few OF the
reasons why we urge the claims of knute
Nelson for governor. Mr.. Nelson voted
for the Mills bill; the records proyeit
aud Inc does not deny it. We homer him
for having the courage and manhood to
vote his honest convictions in the lace OF
the soIId opposition of his party asse-
c;ates in congress. A coward never
would ltaye voted as Mr.. Nelson did. 1t
proves w.at we have said-he has the
courage of a;s convictions. He was
born in Norway, but he shouldercd
musket in defence of the Dtion. Thou
sands of Miunesota,s best citizeas to-
day were boru under foreign flag. The
Standards insinuation that Mr.. Nelson
is Jim Hills lawyer is unworthy OF no.
tice. 1t is lie. Admitting that he has
been occasionally employed by the Great
Northern Railway Co What oft! He
is a practicing lawyes as well as far
rner. Would the yirtuous mugwump
editor of the Standard decline legiti-
mate paying advertisement from rail-
road corporations.

The swedish Ladies.

On Wednesday evening OF next week
there Will be given at the Opera house
one OF the very finest musical entertain
ments ever offered in this city. The
Swedish Ladies Concert Company, COM
posed of the famous, Swedish Lady quar-
tet, will give one of their select concerts,
and all who have heard them will want
no assurance of excellence. They sing in
English as we'll as Swedish, and the pro-
gram is varied by Melvin R. Day, a
humorist of wide reputation. The COM
pany is brought here by the BRYANT
Literary and Historical Association,
being the first OF series of entertain
ments under its auspices. Tickets for the
concert 35 and so cents, at Greene's,
where seats may be reserved.
Read what is said of the company:
"a good audience greeted the Swedish
Ladies Concert Company last evening.
and the general verdict is that the enter
tainment was the finest musical treat
ever listened to in this city. Every num-
Der of the program was cheered to an
encore, several of which the ladies re-
sponded to. Mr.. Melvin X. Day, the
humorist, made himself favorite from
the first appearance and could scarcely
break away from the audience so vocifer-
Gus was the encores. His selections were
taken principally from Bill Nye, Mark
Twain and Charles Dickens. and were
ridiculous to a success. ~ Cincinnati
Enquirer.
There was very appreciative and
enthusiastic audience at the Opera house
last evening, who gave the quartet of
Swedish Ladies greeting. Every num-
Der on the program was encored. The
ladies were assisted by Melvin r. Day.
whose humorous Rotations and char
acter sketches proved immtnselv taking
and quite captured the audience. - Ot-

Odor in 1862, who is still living. by
whom he had four children, two of WHOM

A New Depot.

The past week has been very busy
one in matters pertaining to new de-
pot, and the work done promises to be
crowned with complete sucs ess. Presi-
dent Hill OF the Great Northern sent for
Mayor Tobey and President Robbins for
"a conference relative to the desire OF the
city. Senator Keller also met Mr.. Hill
and General Manager Mohler relative to
the matter. They urged the building of
a good building on the north side of the
track and their suggestions were listened
to with the utmost courtesy. the officials
agreeing that the request was reasonable.
They came home impressed with the idea
that the Great Northern road contem-
plate dealing literally with the city.
Later Mr.: Keller had an interview
with the president of the road. in which
he expressed himself as DESTROYS of meet
ing our desires in the matter as fully as
consistent with the interests ofthe road.
The company is DESTROYS of getting to
work as soon as possible, and iutimated
what would be required as preliminary
steps. That our citizens are inclined to
do everything within their power goes
without saying. They are all anxious
to cooperate with the road. To that
end preparations have been made IN con-
fornity with the suggestions. AMI there
is every reason to believe that we shall
soon have handsome depot and other
improvements OF which it is too early to
speak at present. Several acres of
land and additional rght-of-way has
been rendered the company.
