firm might pay for the Baron's share. Tho
firm paid the Baron about $500. 900 francs.
The Baron paid Ullman nothing. Ullman

WALTER A. WOOD.

The death of WALTER A. WooD re-
moves one whose name, particularly in
the state of Minnesota, has been a
household word for nearly thirty years.
There are many prominent statesmen
Iii both the great parties of this country
whose names and positions are far less
familiar to the people of the Northwest
than is that of the man but lately at the
head of the important manufacturing
enterprise now being established in st.
Paul. Minnesota had but recently been
admitted to statehood when the various
agricultural implements manufactured
by WALTER A, WooD were first intro
duced into our golden fields of grain.
There are gray-headed men walking
the streets of st. Paul today who, as mere
boys. bound wheat in Minnesota after the
"self-rake" machines of WALTER A.
WOOD. His success in an industry
whose fame is now worldwide was phe-
nomenal, and it is in the line of eminent
appropriateness that the state which, in
the days of Mr.. WOODS early struggles.
was enabled by her natural agricultural
advantages to buy largely of mis- stand
ard wares, should fall heir to an i'm
portant branch of the famous harvester
mandatory for so many years located
at Hoosick Falls, N. Y. The death of
Mr.. WooD will in no wise interfere
with the prosecution of the mammoth en-.
terprise which is to be established in St.
Paul. The works will be pushed ahead
vigorously, and in due time invite to ST..
Paul large increase of population of
the most beneficial character known to
the industrial classes.

sULLIvAN's LATEST FAD.

The press of this country has been
generous to JOHN l.. SULLIVAN. It's
donations in the way of advertisements
have been lavish. His periodical DRINKS,
recurring with increasing: frequency,
have been prolific texts for editorial
comment. His few Spasmodic efforts to
reform have been heralded with the
loud clash of journalistic cymbals. For
photographers his name has been one
with which to con- ure. At the present
moment he looms up as a blue ribboner.i
AT his best, drunk or sober, JOHN f.
SULLIVAN is neither more nor less than
a brutal. ill-tempered. depraved and
sensual slugger, notorious for private
brawls and public exhibitions of a de-
PRAYING tendency. His habitual en-
VironmentS are low and disreputable;
the companions with whom he asSoci-
ates no better than himself His recent
attempt to foregO the use of alcoholic
stimuiants may result in complete sue
cess. Cui bono? Under existing con-
ditionS will the world be benefited by
his effort? Can a stream rise higher
than its source? The men vino COM
pose his ''set' are as great drunkards
as himself; some of his editorial critics
are no better. His love for liquor Is not
the worst feature in his case. That
habit is OvershadoWeG by the innate
brutality and general moral obliquity of
the man. Until he renounces prize
fighting, shakes himself loose from low
debauchees, male and female, his at
tempted reformation, honest as may be
his intentions, must necessarily end in
failure.

WHAT MAY BE.

From some Republican points of view
Che Democrats are in bad way over the
candidacy for president. They see no
way in which harmony and safety can
be evolved. The contrast is then drawn
with the situation in their own camp.
BLAINE is to be nominated, sure, if he
thinks he can take 1t and live. If not,
HARRISON will close up the lines and re-
peat his fortune Of the last trial. This
is the optimistic and superficial view of
che partisan. The growing indications
are that BLAINE is too much of a hypo-
chondriac over his physical ailments to
delegates in his name are being
elected to the Minneapolis conven ton
cuts no figure. The conceit credited
to HARRISON that BLAINE can turn his
followers over to him is not prevalent
in all quarters. The view is that the
name of BLAINE is largely used as a
cloak for hostility to HARRISON. 1t is
predicted that very few delegates
elected in the North-will be found to be
HARRISON men, either as a first or sec
Ond choice. The anti-HARRIsoN feel
ing is an active and Ylrnlent ONE, and
will make it eXpedient to take a new
man. Ii this is correct it explains why
ALGER, CULLOM and other waiting
hopefnls are not uneasy at the retl-
cence OF BLAINE or the work done for
HARRISON. They are confident they can
turn him down in the convention. ALGER
has barrel, and has had experience with
colOred delegates from the South. He
Is practical politician. and has not
wasted his time since the last conven-
ton. He has not relaxed his hold on
the G. A. r., and has had occasion to
travel and make the acquaintance of
the Republican leaders over the coun-
try. He is for BLAINE. of course, but
Is confident his health is insufficient.
Then CULLoM will have Illinois, and
his makeup is given LINCOLN cast.
The Minneapolis convention is uot
likely to be an uninteresting body by
reason of its unanimity for candidate.
