We have learned from a reliable source
that Judge Aikens of this circuit has
withdrawn from his candidacy for re-
election. In fact it can hardly be said
the Judge was a candidate only insofar
as incumben ts of a judicial position are
80 frequently expected to run again"
But Judge Alkens has put an end to al
speculation on the subject by announc'
ing that he will not be a candidate. AS
things are shaping themselves now
Sioux Falls is determined to have the
judsship, the legal fraternity OF that city
for once being quite unanimous IN favor
of q Sioux Falls a McCook, Of
course is Minnehaha's pocket borough
and Moody county still feels the Queer
City's pull strong enough to draw hel
into Minnehaha's wake. Sioux Fall
united this would give her a sure hole
on the nomination which goes a Ions
way to securing the judgeshlp so far a.
the republican party is concerned.

tions have been a feature of this trial to
an extent never before heard in this

other witnesses and a state Of tumult
and anger has resulted that years can
not eradicate.
The defendants in this care were Sam
Stont, Tad Prior and Edward Bronson.
The trial has lasted six weeks and thu
result will no doubt end in quashing
ths indictments against A. r. Lea, A.

Chssley. Mead was a banker, and
while working oyer his books on thu
night Of Oct. Y, 1853. was shot and
