there is no lack of evidence to prove.
Fortunately his fellow citizens are not
confined to mere oral and current evil
dence to show these facts. For nearly
dozen years he has been rendering
decisions which have met and with
stood the criticisms of the most acute
and intelligent members of his profes.
sion throughout the country. It is to
these the student of his life will turn in
coming years to discover the moral and
intellectual value of the man.

December of that year and was at once
made chairman of tho important COM
Eniftee on pensions. AS chairman of
that committee during the past six
years he has introduced and reported
hundreds of bills for the relief of the
veterans Of the late war and is the
author Of what is known as the DISABLE
y Pension act, which was reported
from tho committee on pensions by SEN
a6or Davis and advocated by him on the
door Of the Senate, and which, after
passing both houses of congress, was
vetoed by President Cleveland.
Senator Davis reintroduced this
act after the Inauguration of
President Harrison and it again passed
both houses Of congress, was signed by
the president and is now a law.
During the past year over forty mill
dous Of dollars have been disbursed
under this act to the old soldiers.
Probably the work with which Sena-
tor Davis has been most prominently
identified in the minds Of his constitu-
eats is what is known as the 500 Canal
bill, being an act introduced by him and
which he succeeded in having enacted
into law, which provided for a new
canal at the 500, allowing the passage
of vessels of much greater tonnage than
had heretofore been possible, the result
Of which will be to reduce in very
marked degree the cost of having the
products of our western farms shipped
to the markets of the world, thus en-
HANGING in value every bushel of wheat
raised in the northwest. This bill Sena-
tor Davis supported in the senate in a
1peech of remarkable power and ability.
Senator Davis has been prominently
identified with many other measures for
the benefit of his constituency during the
term of his Office, notably the
act introduced by him and adopt
ed as part of the Mckinley bill
- the result Of which the tariff
on binding Irvine used by the farmers of
this state has been reduced from 2 10
cents pound to the nominal duty of
7-1o of cent a pound.
Senator Davis was formally placed in
nomination by the state convention OF
the Republican party as the candidate
ct his party to succeed himself in the
: United States senate.

Republican Candidate for State

The Republican nominee for state

first seen the light of day at Dornbirn,
Austria, on the 10th day of April, 1886.
He attended school in his native country
until 1858, when no accompanied his
parents to America, settling with them
at Dubuque, Ia. Here he continued his
education, taking full English course
in the public schools of Dubuque, and
was thus engaged when the war broke
out-being only Is years of age when
the first gun of the great struggle was
fred at Fort Sumter.
True to the instincts of his race and

CHARLES E. VANDERBURGH.
Republican Candidate for Supreme
-. Court Justice.

| OOWEG y 06tkCos
For thirty-three years the subject OF
this sketch has interpreted the laws OF
the commonwealth of Minnesota, and
during all that time in the estimation of
the men and women who have known
him moss intimately and regarded him
most closely, his life has been ono of
constantly growing usefulness.
Judge Vanderburgh comes from an
old American family. His ancestors
bearing the name. originally from Hol-
land, came to America some generations
before the revolutionary struggle. His
paternal grandfather was q soldier in
that memorable war, and others of his
kinsmen were more or less prominent in
public and private life during the colon
ial period.
In America, however, what q mans
ancestors were is regarded as of COM
paritively little account. It is the man
himself-his character, ability, and the
record he makes in the community
where his fortunes are cast, that counts
when the final estimate is made ready
for the historical record.
CHARLES E. Vanderburgh was born at
Clifton Park, Saratoga county, N. Y,
on the I'd day of December, 1929. His
boyhood years were spent on farm
the summer months in labor and those
of winter in attending the district
school. At the age of II, he in turn be-
came teacher of tho young-a profess
sion he followed while preparing for
college. At 20 years of age-or in 1S49
he entered Yale college, graduating
with his share of honors three years
later, in 1852.
immediately after graduating he was
rendered the position of principal of the
Oxford, N. Y, academy, While hold
ing this position, and subsequently, he
studied law in the Office of Hon. Henry

of age, and at once became a
soldier in the Thirteenth regu-
lar infantry-the regiment formerly
commanded by General w. T. Sherman.
He served one year in this organization,
being discharged in 1868 for disability.
The same fall, having recovered his
health, he enlisted in the navy and was
assigned to duty in the flagship of Ad-
miral Porter-the Blackhawk. Here he
remained until December, 1864, when
he was discharged because of the expira-
ton of his term of enlistment.
He returned to Dubuque and passed
only one month with his friends, the
war fever still raging strongly in his
veins. He again offered his services to
his adopted country and became priv
ate soldier in Company H." Second
Iowa cavalry, where he remained until
September, 1865, being mustered out
with his regiment at Silma, Ala, be-
cause of the close of the war.
Meantime, the war had strongly de-
veloped the military instinct in this
young soldier, and he determined to fol-
low soldering as a profession. In De-
cember, 1866, therefore, he again
enlisted in his old regimept-the Thir-
tenth regular infantry-for three years,
and remained therein until his time had
expired in 1858.
But promotion had ceased with the
war. The young man was ambitious
and soon learned that the prizes
of life were mono of them
to be found in the American army in
those ''pipinR times of peace" He was
~ yerrs of age, but his experiences were
those Of man much older. He turned
his back upon the army and located at
New Ulm. Brown county, MIMI, the
town that has ever since been his home.
In 1852 he was elected member of
the house of representatives from his
district in Brown county and served
one term-the session of 1883. In
1873 he had established the N CIV
Ulm Review, and conducted that
well known local newspaper in the inter-
est of the Republican party until Jan
uary, 1887, at which time, having been
elected state treasurer he assumed the
duties Of that position. He has contin.
ued to hold this Office ever since, having
been twice reelected thereto-in 1885
and again in 1890.
His position in public life has given
Colonel Bobleter wide and intimate &C.
quaintance with the leading men of the
commonwealth, with whom he is q uni
versal favorite. Modest and unassum.
ing IN his intercourse with bis fellows, he
is yet known to possess all of those
sterling qualities of character that go to
make up leader and director among
his fellow citizens.
Always Republican from principle,
his allegiance to his party has been a.
though it was part of his religion, and
through his influence largely his friend.
and countrymen have held steadfast to
their party obligations. He is pleas.
ant gentleman, genial and kindly in his
personal intercourse with his fellows,
sturdy in his own convictions, but char
table and tolerant toward those who
differ with him.

STATESMAN: The test oath case
was argued before the supreme court
at Lewiston last Monday. A decision
may be expected soon after the
Judges return to Boise, which will be
IN few days. There is nothing to
indicate what the character of the de-
cision will be, but in all probability
the court will declare the law uncon-
stitutional. So far as the Statesman
is able to understand the question at
issue, it would seem as though no other
conclusion could be reached. There
may have been some new light thrown
upon the matter in the course of the
argument. There may be decisions
upon which the law can be sustained,
but they have not been cited in any
of the general discussions that have
taken place over the matter.

rEorLEs rAsTY ADVOCATES


Last Saturday evening -four OF the
Peoples party men appeared before
good-sized audience in the court
house. Wm.. Byrne, candidate for
the House Of Representatives, frst
made : few pointed remarks on the
silver question, and closed with the
remark that the Republican party
ought to muzzle John Sherman, who
made : speech the other day in Phil
adelphia in which be sa,d the Repub-
leans could be trusted to oppose free
coinage. Mr.. Byrne said be had
been asked bis position on many
measures BY voters throughout the
county, but stated that be had made
no pledges and would not, further
than that he would uphold and work
for anything he would consider for
the benefit Of the people Of Boise
county. He was followed BY Andrew
Collins, also candidate for the House.
Mr.. Collins gave his reasons for leay-
ing the Democratic party, aud took
the ground that neither of the old
parties cared for the welfare Of the
producers, but enacted laws for the
further enrichment of bond holders
and other non-producers. Thos. J..
Coonrod, candidate for Probate Judge.
was next introduced, and made only
a very few remarks, stating that be
did not come before the people to talk,
but just simply so that they would be
able to see him and associate his name
with his face.
The speaker of the evening was B.
r. L. Poston. He raked the old par
ties fore and aft on the financial, trans
portAtion and many other questions.
he talked an hour and three quarters,
covered more ground, gave a more
complete history of Legislation during
the past forty years, showing the rel
ative position of the producers and
producers during that time, to-
gether with forcible portrayal of the
necessities for changes in present op-
Pressive, centralizing systems, than
all the other speakers combined who
have spoken here since the campaign
opened. He possesses fund OF in
formation, with facts, figures aud
dates, that shows an extraordinary
gift of memory. His reasoning pow
ers are good, delivery easy and for
chile, and be can hold the interest of
an audience longer than big majority
of campaigners. Those who heard
him said they could have listened two
hours longer without tiring. The
verdict is almost unanimous shat he
is far the ablest speaker heard here
during the campaign. He made sew
eral converts for the Peoples party.
Mr.. Poston is wood chopper, but he
can make the chips fly fully as lively
as a speaker as he can with an az.
