The bull movement of wheat which set
in Saturday was too Immediately sue
cessful to last. The whipping up of May
wheat into an alluring bulge was based
on bunch of mere possibilities in the
main, the most substantial point being
reported vessel charters for million
bushels during the next two months.
The snow fall in the Northwest, which is
attaining oldtime dimensions, is of the
very best augury for good crop condi-
tons. The more snow we have this
month the better. 1t insures the needed
moisture for abe thirsty SOIL In the Da-
kotas especially loot or two of snow
will be the greatest blessing conceivable.
Unless the export demand increases
largely TIE bull movement can only re-
suit in reaction, which has been the ex-
perience for some weeks. That wheat is
not likely to be depressed much from
present prices seems pretty certain, from
the fact that the available and unayail-
able stockson Jan. I, 1891, were TO-
OO0, 900 bushels less than the amount
one year ago. The amount available
for export on Ian. /, 1891, according to
Bradstreets, was over $4,000. 900 bush
els. A fairly good export demand the
next few months will pull this avail.

Negro Melodies,

Never having anything classical about
them, not suited to the fastidions ear of
the professional musician, there is yet
something unde6nable in the socalled
plantation" melodies which charms the
heart of the great mass of common hui
mainly the world oyer. The immense
success of the two or three troups OF
genuine Jubilee Singers" that have
made triumphal progresses through this
country and Europe, attest the hold their
songs have on humanity. The old plan
tation merrymakings have passed away
with slavery, but now and then one on a
journey in the South will have an OPP
portunity to hear something of the real
sort. Besides, the Southern states are
delightful for winter tour. The mag

THURSDAY FEBRuARY S, 1891.
WILLIAM WINDOW.

Secretary Winnom is dead! This briei
announcement flashed across the country
from New York City on Friday of last
week, carried with it nations grief at
the sudden and untimely taking off OF
one of her greatest and purest men.
While the remotest frontiersman will
mingle his tears and give his grief ex-
preston in unison with the busy deni-
gems of the metropolitan centers OF BUSH
ness activity, yet the blow falls with
peculiar force upon our own state OF
Minnesota, which is proud to claim him
as citizen. To so many of her people
was he endeared by the close ties of
warm friendship that his death is keenly
felt as personal affection. All who had
the pleasure of his acquaintance were
drawn to him by charm-a fascination
begotten of a frank and tender geniality
which such noble and kindly natures
alone can exercise.
William Window was great man-is
a great man-for he still lives and will so
long as the nation shall exist. His in
fluence oyer governmental finances will
be an ever-present and eyer-existent
power. AS deeply as Hamilton and
Chase have impressed themselves upon
the United States treasury as giant
forces Mr.. WINDOWS influence is. not
less potent. Modest, tolerant and char
liable, he was as firm as rock in his
devotion to principle. His pure life and
unfinching christianity is not less lc-
gacy ever to be cherished by the nation
than his distinguished ability as fnan-
cier.
Twice honored by Minnesota with
seat in the United States senate, his en-
tire official career has honored Mime
sofa a hundred fold. He owed the state
of his adoption naught but the opportuni-
ty; the state owes him much for the con-
spicuous and mastery use of that OPP
portunity. Twice he has been selected
as an adviser of the chief magistrate,
the treasury portfolio having been COM
mitted to his charge on both occasions
and by his wise and sagacious manage
ment he has added luster to both admin
istrations of which he was cabinet Of
fcer.
Minnesota mingles her tears with the
bereaved ones of his household, and will
eyer cherish his memory with tenderness
and devotion.

COUNTY ATTORNEY TAYLOR.

Thesupreme court handed down
decision last week on the contested cleo
ton for the county attorney in Stearns
county. Oscar Taylor, the last elected
county attorney, contested the election
of John D. Sullivan on the ground that
he was not an American citizen, and
prayed the court to issue a writ of quo
warranto declaring that the election of
Sullivan was null and void. The relator
was elected to the office at the election
in 1888, was qualified and entered upon
the discharge of its duties. He is still
the incumbent of the Office unless he
has been superseded by the respondent,
or unless a vacancy has occurred by force
of the statute. 1t appears that at the
not citizen of the United States, and
had not declared his intention to become
a citizen conformable to the laws of the
United States upon the subject of nat
uralization. He relies, however, upon
the fact that after the election, and before
the commencement of the term of Office
for which he was elected, he duly declar-
ed his intention to become citizen. Re-
spondent rests his case upon the propo-
sition that the restriction in article Z,
section z of the constitution, refers mere
ly to the holding of Office. and not to
elections, and hence that he was legally
entitled to the office because his dis
qualification was removed before the
commencement of the term, although
subsequent to the election. This ques-
ton has not been heretofore decided in
this state. The syllabus of the case
reads:
The incumbent of an Office, the term of
which is for specified period, I" and
until his successor is elected and qualified, I"
is entitled to retain the office after the
lapse of the specified period, in the event
of the election of another person to sue
coed him who is ineligible. Hence he has
such an interest in such election that he
may invoke decision as to its legality.
The constitution, makeng persons of
foreign birth, who have not declared
their intention to become citizens of the
United States, ineligible to any elective
Office, disquali6es such persons from be-
ing legally elected. They are not entitled
to hold Office, even though after being
elected they declare their intention to be
come citizens. It is therefore ordered
that the re cpondent's motion to dismiss
the order to show cause be denied, and
that the application of the relator for a
writ of quo warranto be granted.

The Sank Centre HERALD criticises the
county commissioners for passing res
olution requiring that all justices of the
peace be notified not to begin any crimi-
nal proceedings without first obtaining
the consent of the county attorney. The
HERALD's criticism is just, as the matter
is undoubtedly outside of the powers of
the board, which, however, probably
acted under advice. But aside from its
legality, the object of the resolution is
right, and it may accomplishit its purpose.
The board is constantly annoyed by bills
ofjustices for cases begun and dropped
or successfully defended. The majority
of these cases should never have no OBJ
ject except to make fees for the county
to pay. This resolution, as we under
stand it, is aimed at the few justices sup
posed to foster this sort of business. A
careful justice very seldom has bills for
fees against the county except for cases
that have been successfully prosecuted.
