SOME smart alecks in the legisla-

and demand its repeal. The gen
uine farmers, as near as we can
ascertain, are opposed to the repeal
of the law. A correspondent of
the Sleepy Eye Herald, the official
organ of the Farmers Alliance in
the Ninth senatorial district, in a
letter to that paper takes strong
grounds in favor of the law as it
stands, and concludes by hoping
that the sheep, not the. wolf, will
be protected.

HE seven Republican senators
that voted to seat j. S. O'Bricn
and unseat Jasper N. Searles are
all supposed to be personal friends
Of Gov. Merriam. Mr.. Searles
was the senator elected from
Washington county; Mr.. O'Brien
contested the seat; a recount of
the votes cast in the town of
Marine gave MI. O'Brien 70 votes
more than the original count; no
claim was made that any of the
judges or clerks of election were
drunk or neglected their duties,
neither were the two days and two
nights canvassing the ballots cast.
But Mr.. O'Brien was a Democrat.
However, O'Brien is good fellow
and we are not sorry that he was
seated.
