q Mr.. Carriers appointment: meets
with approval here Carter is very
popular personally. He has an agree
able way Of handling people His
appointment, however, is generally
attributed to the influence Of Russell
Harrison and the Northern Pacific
road. Senator Sanders is very glad.
He thinksthat the burial Of Carter in
a department in Washington will
take himout of tho next senatorial

Tho Wrong Man.

Marshal Turenne, happening one ho,
day to be looking out Of u window If
his antechamber, servant entered the
room, and, deceived by his dress. mis-
took him for one of the under cooks. He
came softly behind him, and with a
hand which was not one of the lightest
gave him violent slap on TIE shoulder.
The marshal instantly turned about,
and the fellow, frightened out Of his
wits, beheld the face of his master.
Down he dropped on his knees.
"Oh! my lord, I thought it was
George"
"And suppose it had been George"
replied the marshal, ''you need not have

THE SUMNER GIRL.
for us once more,
She's coming with the breezes that will blow
along the shore.
The sun will kiss her ringlets and will tinge
her checks with brown.
While he who loves her mad1y grapples fate
and tolls in town.
And Cupid, with the arrows that he's given her
to twirl,
Will guard anew the footsteps Of the sprightly
summer girl.
When robin redbreast hops around while yet
tits early dawn,
And tennis players dot the green Of grassy
field and lawn,
Well see her dressed In percale. with q walk,
ing stick in hand,
And in her brothers necktie will she stroll
along the sand:
And where the crowd Is thickest in the sum-
mer hotel whirl,
VIII bloom once more the beauty of the charm
ing summer girl.
With glossy collar shining in the light Of sum-
mer days.
With vest and sash and blazer VIC will learn
anew her ways.
Young Cupid will instruct us how tn pierce the
thin disguise
OF masculine attire that hides tho maiden
heart we prize:
And when once more we claim her ,,s the sum-
mcr's priceless pearl,
Well hail the smiling features If tho folly
summer girl.

party in this state, while on the other

able character and merit. Mr.. Buck

Many people, after seeing the vac
citation Of the president in making
tho appointment, have wondered at
Mr.. Buchanan remaining in the field
70 long, bu: those who know hin, best
have been aware that it was matter
Of honor with him, having once got
into the fight, not to withdraw until
the last breastwork was taken or until
his patience had been exhausted.
That time has now arrived. Mr..
Buchanan, although he has not lost a
fraction Of the support or confidence
Of the friends who have stood so stead
lastly by him in the contest, has ar
rived at the conclusion that it is No.
longer consistent with his dignity nor
his manIiness TO longer protract a
fight which, on the eve Of a presiden-
tial campaign might create dissension
in the ranks of the Minnesota Repub-
'icans, and he yesterday sent the FOL-
lowing telegram to the president:
"Believing it to be for the best in
terests Of the Republican party, I
withdraw my name as candidate for
appointment to the surveyor general
ship Of Minnesota :;
Mr.. Buchanan was seen by Pho
neer Press reporter last evening, and
made the following statement: "Since
my name has been placed on file as \
candidate for the office of state sur
veyor have not heard Z word from
Washington from which I could judge
/ whether the president was in favor Of
Or against my candidature. There is
no reason why surveyor should not
have been appointed long ago, nor is
there any cause why the Office should
not fall to a republican, and il I was
not the proper man then some other
should have been placed in that posi-
ton. I have sent the telegram with,
out consulting anyone. Twas actual
ed purely by motives for the interest
Of my party. was led to this by
wishing only good to the party, and
never thought as to who the proper
man should be.
"While I keenly appreciate the hu-
| initiation Of my withdrawal after the
opposition that has been shown,
have no apology to offer for being Il
candidate or for anything I have ever
done, for l know Of no wrong that has
been committed by me. appreciate
the consideration that has been shown,
me, yet believe that no individual
has right to hurl selfish claims
against the interests Of his party.
The delegation from this state was
wholly in favor Of my appointment,
and apparently, therefore, l ought to
have been given the position. No
man now active in politics regarded
my condition with disfavor. The
only men who were against me were
the defeated candidates, and it seems
strange that their power at Washing
ton should be 60 great as to withhold
the Office from me-"
