Washington Star: The Des Moines judge
who discharged a jury fromfurther connec-
ton with federal courts because it accepted
q banquet from a recently acquitted defend
ant, acted on sound principles of good
taste. Aman might be so impressed with
the sagacity and discretion of twelve men
who found him innocent of charges that

direct and public manner possible. Still.

action is . vigorous lesson in the proprieties
that will no doubt exert blasting and bene-
fetal influence.

HARRISON AGAIN.
The Successful Leader of Four
Years Ago Again in
Command.
BENJAMIN Harrison Renomi-
mated for President on the
First Ballot.

President Harrison was renominated yes
day on the first ballot, receiving all then
votes claimed for him by the managers o
his canvass, and where there were losses in
come states, gains were made in others.
The losses came from states which desired
to vote for Gov. Mckinley, but which in
case of q straight issue between Blaine and
Harrison would have voted FOR the presi-
dent, making his total vote slightly larger
than it appears as recorded.
"Our house was built on a pile OF sand until
Saturday" said Gen. Clarksoa to the PIONEER
Press. I'VE did not know definitely until
Saturday that Blaine would accept. We lost
twenty-five votes between Thursday and satur-
day. Then his resignation hurt US. 1t was an
uphill fight all the WHILE"
That has been maintained by the friends
o: President Harrison all the time. The
anti Harrison men were fighting in the air
and did not know where they were or what
they were doing, except that they were de-

in the hope that the convention might be

None of the Harrison men could be in

in Ohio, and their state pride induced them
to vote for the now leading statesman of
their state. 1t was observed that the roll
call showed that the Harrison men were

Intensely Cold, But no Wtnds-Not Much
Snow Reported.
ST. PAUL, Jan. 15.-This week has been
one of the coldest ever experienced in the
northwest, but there was little or no wind
stirring and great part of ordinary dis
comfert was absent. The last very cold
winter was four years ago, when the great
Dakota blizzard caused over 200 deaths, but
during that memorable January the worst
thing about the weather was the cutting
winds that blinded those who were out of
doors so that many lost their way and we.eI
frozen to death. It is very noticeable in
the present cold snap that no lives have yet
been reported lost. There is little or no
snow IN this section. Last night
was probably the coldest Of the
season. Tie mercury went down until liz.
fioze in many localities. All through the
northern part Of Minnesota, in Manitoba,
North Dakota and the Canadian northwest,
the temperature ranged from thirty to fifty
below zero in spirit thermometers. At
nine this morning it was forty eight below
at Pembina. N. d. Fergus Falls
reports thirty below. this being the six
teenth consecutive morning with the mer-
curry below zero. Bismarck reports twenty
four, ST. Vincent forty, Moorehead twenty
eight, Winnipeg forty below. A heavy
snow storm is reported at Elk Point S. ID.
A severe snow storm ragged through the
east to-day, trains in New York being
somewhat delayed.

TO act upon them all ut the same time.
From what can be gnihered from interested

Princess of Wales Prostrated-Princess
Victoria Mary.
LONDON, Jan. 15.-Apprehension is felt in
many quarters regarding tho condition of
the princess of Wales, who takes the death
of her son very much to heart and refuses
to be comforted. Her long service in the
sick rooms of both Prince George and
Prince Victor had an effect of greatly de-
blitatng her. and to-day she is completely
prostrated. Princess Victoria Maty, whose
poignant sorrow at the loss of her be-
trothed husband seems to increase is also
prostrated and by tho intensity of her
grief and her refusal to touch food much
anxiety is expressed regarding her. Prin-
cess Mary stood by the bedside of her royal
lover and through her binding tears
watched him as his life ebbed away. When
the doctors announced the duke was dead
she became hysterical and her cries were
heart-rending. Effolts were made to lead
her from the room, but for long time
nothing could induce her to leave the death
chamber. She stood bv the bedside and
leaning over she called Eddie, my Eddie,'
IN agonized tones and entreated him to
speak to her once more.
