THE Austin Transcript thinks the
securing of the Republican National
Convention for Minneapolis would be
a help in getting desirable legislation
for this section, because it would
familiarize the statesmen of the par
ty with "our growth, development and
Importance. No doubt of that at
all. Many who would render us i'm
portant help, fail to realize what an
empire we have growing up here in
the Northwest. Many of them would
doubtless take few days after the
convention to look us over. To get
the convention is a chance that should
not be thrown away.

quite feeble, and had TO be assisted 90

of heart failure. He had been gradu-
ally failing for six months back.
and his last appearance in the
pulpit was at Red Wing, during the
conference, when he tainted away
just at the opening of his sermon. DR..
Tiffany's death will be sadly felt, not
only by the wide circle of his acouaint-
ance, but by the church generally.
He was one Of those men of whom if
there were more the world would be
the gamer thereby. Naturally quiet.
modest man, yet he took a pronounced
interest in allQuestions involving the
material and moral welfare Of the
community, and wherever he appeared
and spoke in public, always left the
impression upon his auditors as man

ty and kindness. During his life he
filled pulpits in many of the leading
cities of the country, and for three
years was pastor Of the Metropolitan
church at Washington, which was at
tended by Gen. Grant. He was also
pronounced anti-slayery advocate,
and in the critical days of the rebel
lion rendered the government splend-
id service, especially in connection
with the suppression of the draft
riots in New York. His was indeed a
busy and useful life, the fruits OF
which viii live after him for many

LEFT THE CONVENTION NOMINATE.

Joel P. Heatwole, chairman of the
Republican State Committee, and
editor of the Northfield Neacs, says in
the last issue Of his paper:
There seems to be feeling that
the Republicans of Minnesota should
nominate a candidate for United
States Senator in State convention.
Ii the Republicans are in earnest
about this they should secure sigma
lures to present to the State Central
Committee so that the call will in
clude the senatorship. We are inclin-
ed to think, after much reflection,
that such nomination would bring
the election nearer the people and the
committee should be urged to make
such call.
1t seems to the FREE PRESS that
the views of the Republicans of the
state have been pretty well expressed
through the press as favorable to the
nomination of candidate for the
senate by the convention. However.
II this is not regarded as sufficient.
there will be no trouble in getting
al the names needed, to petition.
asking the committee in include the
senatorship in the call.
We believe that the convention
should declare its choice for senator.
because it is direct representative
body of the rank and file of the party.
fresh from their councils, and would
be as direct choice of the people as
though they were to vote direct for
the candidate, for we very much doubt
that legislature would dare disre-
gard the wishes of the people. 1t
would also take the matter from the
control of the politicians, which would
tend TO give better satisfaction to the
people. By all means let the conven-
Jlon nominate senatorial candidate.

IHE great libel suit between Igna-
thus Donnelly and the St. Paul Pioneer
Press which Was tried last week in
Minneapolis, came to a close Satur-
day night by the jury finding a YER
dict of 81 for the plaintiff. Mr..
Wheelock, of the Pioneer Press. ex-
presses his satisfaction at the result.
and regards it as vindication of his
paper. On the other hand We presume
that Mr.. Donnelly will look upon the
result favorably, as it was in his favor.
although it was 500, 500 less than the
amount he thought his reputation
mad been damaged Yet it is doubt
IuI II the world will consider it a vim
dlcati0n Of Mr. Donnelly. for sl.0O is
ne reparation for a libel upon mans
reputation if he has any standing at
an III the world. Looked at in this
light, the verdict is victory for the
faoaeer Press pure and simple and will
