Much Ado About Nothing.

Telegraph Bulletin.
\ great howl has been raised by the
state house ring organs and orators
about Justice McEnely accepting the
nomination for governor and not resign
ing as associate Justice of the Supreme
Court, and these people blatantly as
sure their crednIous hearers that it is
absolutely without precedent. Now let
us see it they are not as far removed
from the truth in this matter as in the
other fulminations of the campaign.
We have a most notable instance of q
similar nature in the case OF Senator
David B. Hill, who was elected to the
position he now holds nearly year ago
while holding the office of governor of
the state of New York. He held on to
the office OF governor until his term ex-
PRED, although he was due at the bar of
the senate a month previous. No one
but republicans protested and the grand
results of his holding his office until his
term expired is a subject of congratulate
ton to the nation, as it removes the
chance of republicans carrying the state
of New York again.
There is, however, all exact precedent
in the case of associate Justice Jona-
than Dixon, Jr., of the state of New
Jersey: While Judge he received the
republican nomination for governor and
continued on the bench during the cam
paisn, but was defeated. That he was
not censured for this, even by his puliti-
cal opponents, is certain, for the demo
cratic governor ro-appointed him Assoc
clate justice upon the expiration of his
term.
Kansas also furnished preccdents for
this position III the case of Judge Louis
Hanback, and Judge 5. Il. Peters, in
the year Of 1882, when Kansas, under
the census Of 1880 got four additional
members OF congress. Both of these
gentlemen were district judges at that
time, and receiving the nomination for
congress were elected.
The election of Judge Peters WAS con-
tested by Col. S. W. Wood on the
GROUND that the constitution of tie state
OF Kansas prohibited Il judge from be-
ing elected to any office during the term
for which he was elected Judge, which
the constitution explicitly does pro.
hibit
The national house of representatives
decided the case in favor of Peters and
lio was seated, although the house was
democratic.
This is not the trouble with the state
house ring tic et but their guilty con
sciences are lready placing accusations
at their own doors IN that they fear the
results at the polls and only by trump
lug UP such tilmey protests can thew at
tempt to lessen the potent influence of
tue name of Samuel D. McEnery viii,
the democracy OF Louisiana.

The New Delta, the Shreveport eau
casian, the Alexandria Town Talk and
other newspapers of that ilk, in making
up the State ticket at the head OF their
columns, put the name of Capt. Adams
third on the list, Immediately following
Foster and Parlange. The object is to
make a pretense that the Office of secre-
tary of State, for which Adams was
nominated, is OF more Importance than
the other places which follow it. Such
insincerity is part and parcel of the de-
ception which these politicians have
practised on friend and foe from first
to last. The office of secretary of state
is of no political Importance whatever;
its incumbent is a sort of head clerk to
the governors office, keeping the re-
cords OF his official action in the Ordi-
nary routine OF his duties, and has no
further significance. The position is
therefore the tail end of the ticket"
aud when Capt. Adams accepted it rs
the alternative OF ii pretended nomna-
ton for governor he took what had no
value W hateyer tor " his people," or the
cause which he represented, but only II
prospective salary for himself. The

family will hestride the parish of East
Feliciana like huge colossus, and the

Hon. L. L. BAXTER is the can
didate of all parties for district
judge in the Seventh Judicial dis
trict. a more impartial and hon.
orable gentleman than L. L. Bax-
ter never graced the bench of Min
nesota. Six years ago, when Judge
Baxter first came before the voters
of this judicial district, the UNION
supported him as against the can
didate of the Republican party.
Then the UNION predicted his
election and that if he were a can
didate in 1892, he would be the
unanimous choice of all parties.
Both predictions have been veri-
fed.

The managers of the Demo-
cratic campaign in this State have
permitted themselves to be made
the catspaws of the Chicago wheat
gamblers. Senator Washburn's
anti-option bill-the most bene-
fetal measure ever proposed in
congress-means, if it becomes a
law, a loss of millions of dollars to
the constituencies wheat barons of
Chicago annually, and a CORES
ponding gain to the wheat-pro-
ducers of the Northwest. In this
connection the fact must not be
lost sight Of that the St. Paul
Globe, whose editor is chairman of
the Democratic State Central COM
mittee, has always been opposed
to the anti-option bill.

MARTIN COUNTY Sentinel:
Four years ago, Immediately after
Mr.. Donnelly's extended visit to
foreign lands, he made some of the
strongest speeches in behalf of the
Republican doctrine Of protection
that were ever delivered. His
arguments, based upon his per-
sonal observations in the Old
World, we're unanswerable, and it
was largely through Mr.. Donnel-
ly's influence that GOV. Merriam
and the Republican party pulled
through in that most critical year
in its history. Mr.. Donnelly is
not only protectionist but he is
naturally Republican and had
that party treated him more mag
unanimously he would to-day be
fighting for it's principles and it's
candidates.

The Neaos editor is opposed to news

He thinks the public little cares about

with the old maxim which advises this
ourse.--Moorhead Neaos. >'.s
Mr.. Lamphere is right. The
public are not interested in the
petty quarrels of editors. Like
the Neavs the UNION is opposed to
newspaper quarrels and never
picks one, unless the provocation
is great.
