Fut ont oysr the Turn in Affairs.

Editor Bogen who went back on his
friends week ago and partially sold
the Post to the very people whom he had
roasted few days before, has concluded
to change his mind or rather was COM
PEELED to do SO by discovering that he
had bargained off that which didn't be-
long to him. Accordingly he has offered
to return the check to Mr.. strickler
whereby the bargain was to be made
good, and says the paper will not change
hands. Whatsoever induced Mr.. Bogen
to change his mind isa question, but
one thing is certain, the stock company
aren't quite so exultant now as they
were. Bogen threatens to hold to his
present course in spite of all attempts at
prosecution. and the attorneys are being
brought into active service as they have
seldom been before. The Post was Just
what the stock company wanted and
now that they haven't got it, the laugh
ing is all on the other side.

The Springfield Advance records the
actions of Paul Okkus, while locked up
in the calaboose of that village before
being brought to New Ulm, in the fol-
lowing language: There were lively times
in the village calaboose early Monday
morning. Three men had been run in
during the night by Marshal Schwartz

came decidedly violeot- He broke the
bedstead in pieces, and demolished every
thing he could lay his hands on. He

the cells. The other two men, Henry
Miller and Albert Redick were in terrible
fear from their awful danger of being
burned alive. As luck would have it,
Clarence Cady, who was passing, saw and
put out the fire. Then Okkus, taking
one of the legs of the bedstead, set to
work to beat down the walls Of his cell.
With his body nearly stripped he worked
like mad-man. He pounded through
the partition and splinter flew out. He
was working away still when the mar
shal and Clarence Cady came, and, rush

handouts. AT his trial at 1 p. m. before
Justice Ray he was found guilty of
drunkenness and disorderly conduct by
a jury and sentenced to thirty days in
the county Jail.

happy faculty of making friends and re-

Burglary at Springfield.

On Sunday morning it was discov-
cred that Schmid s. Lehrer's hardware
store and N. F. Fredericksen's jewelry
store had been entered during the night
by burglars who had taken goods from
each place. At Schmid & Lehrer's, en-
trance had been made by knocking out
large pane of glass from rear win
dow. From this store was taken only 3
revolvers, 2 Smith s. Wesson and one of
cheaper make. It is thought the burg
lar was frightened off by
hearing noise in a neigh
boring building or else he would have
taken more. Fredericksen's jewelry
store was entered by breaking in two
small panes of glass and then reaching
through and unfastening the win
dow, which was at the real end of the
store. Here the robbers took two trays
Of watch chains, about dozen specta-
cles, and some charms-in value. about
$40. The value of goods stolen from
Schn1d 6y Lehrer was $3.50, so the rob

suit of theil work. Two men who

One was tall and dark, the other was

Anton Maser's wagon shop several times
and stole one of his chisels to do their
work with, throwing it down beside the
window at Schmid s. Lehrer's. The mar
shal, accompanied by several young men
of the town, went up to Sanborn Sunday
to look for the robbers, but so far. they
have not been apprehended.- Advance

SELECTION OF ELECTORS
SUPREME COURT sUsTAiNS THE
NEW ELECTORAL LAW.
Presidential Electors May Now be
Chosen by Districts--The Entire
Bench COEcurs.

The supreme court has fled an opin-
ion sustaining the Miner electoral
law. The opinion was written 10y
Judge Montgomery and was concurred
in by all the other Justices. The
opinion says it is evident that the ques-
ton of greatest Importance is that
relating to the true Interpretation of
section of article . of the Federal con-
stitution, which provides that leach
State shall appoint, in such manner as
the Legislature thereof may direct, IL
mum Der of electors equal to the whole
number of Senators and Representa-
tives TO which the State may be en-
titled in Congress" In the judg-
ment of the court these words
are clearly susceptible of II construc-
ton which confers upon the Legisla-
ture power to say how the State ac-
ton shall be voiced 1t furthermore
concludes that it would be n strained
construction which would give "a
either the fourteenth or fifteenth
amendments the effect TO annul
the power expressly delegated in
| section / OF article OF
| the constitution. It is clear that the
fifteenth amendment was intended to
preclude the State from making any
discrimination against citizens on az
count of color BY neither amendment
was there any attempt to place limita
tions upon the authority of the State
as TO the choice of officers thereto foi
presidential electors are still regarded
as State officers
In The decision it is admitted tina
the act is in conflict with the fedora
statutes in so far as it attempts 10 fix I
date for the meeting of electors anC
method of certifying their action, bu
holds that this does not render the en-
tire act imperative, as there as NJ
doubt of the rule that where the Law
of state conflicts with the federal Law
in a matter in reference TO which Con
gress has the right to legislate, tn
state law must give way to the eXten
of such conflict.

Harrison was officially notified this
afternoon of his nomination by the

and decoration of potted plants, was
nearly filed with the Presidents

plause greeted his appearance and
grew louder as Mckinley stepped
forward and grasped his hand.
The governor began his speech
of notification at once. lie
read from manuscript and in so low a
tone that until, IN response from cries
louder" he raised his voice, the Presi'
dent himself could hardly hear him.
Applause, led by Elliott Shepard,
closely punctuated his remarks, and
the same was true when the Presiden,
made his reply. Like Mckinley, the
| President read from manuscript, but
unlike Mckinley, he spoke so thai
all could hear, and at times he grew
very earnest and imprisoned He re
ceived an ovation when he finished
and then every body stepped forward
and offered him congratulations IL
all he gave smile and cordial hanc
clasp, and looked particularly happy
when little later Harry Smith pre-
scented him with the gavel used at thu
convention. Then all withdrew to thu
dining-room, partooh of luncheon, de
parted, and the ceremony being owe
the doors were thrown open to tn
