BOARD NOMINATIONS.

List.

Attorney.
mrs. GoFF IS DEFEATED.
GREAT NORTHERN STRIKERS.
Judge Nelson, Of the United
States Court, Decides the
Indictments Invalid.

The joint committee of sixty appoint
ed by the Republican city convention to
nominate candidates for the school +,
library and park boards met yesterday
afternoon at the rooms of the Union
league. The meeting was not altogether
an harmonious one, and 1t demonstrate
clearly that the Republican party has
had its fill of members OF the fair sex
In public positions. even though they
are of the educational kind. Mrs. Golf
was defeated, and this, too. in spite of
the enthusiastic Endorsement given her
by large portion of the female popu-
Iation Of the city.
The following is the result of the
meeting:
Board of Park Commissioners-Prof.
w. w. FOlwell, Samuel Hunter, Charles
II. Woods. Portus G. Deming.
Board of EducatiOn-Rev. M. Falk
Gjertsen. DIR. Thomas F. Quinby.
Library Board-T. B. Walker, Yer
dine Truesdell.
The ticket is surprise in many ways,
and also contains disappointments for
many. Prof. Folwell, of the Second
ward, is one of the retiring men,
bers of the park board. and there
WAS nc hesitancy in giving him re-
nomination. j. A. Ridgeway, the pres
ident of the board, who retires. was
turned down in order to pu; Samuel
Hunter on the ticket. Mr.. Hunter comes
from the Sixth ward and two years ago
retired from the city council. 1t looked
as IL there was a combination in the
convention which was held at the Union
league yesterday afternoon, to put him
on the ticket at any cost. The cost was
the defeat of President RidReway.
Charles fl. Woods, the third man on
of Woods & Klngman. and he comes
from the Fourth ward. He succeeds A..
c. Haugan. Portius c. Deming is q
Ninth ward real estate man. He sue
ceeds Jesse A. NOrthrup, who was not
a candidate for reelection.
Rev. Nj. Falk GJertsen, of the Elev-
enth ward. was nominated to succeed
himself, although he met with some OPP
position. DR.. Quinby, the second nom
lnee for the board of education, is we'll
known physician and halls from the
Fifth ward. Either he is immensely
popular with the Republicans or his
friends formed strong Quinby COM
bination. for he had comparatively
little trouble in securing the nomina-
tlon, and pltted against him was Mayor
Eustis. He is nominated to succeed
President A. L. Ankeny.
T. B. Walker was nominated to sue
coed himself on the library board by
reclamation, and he was the only one to
receive nomination without the FORM
ality of ballot. Verdine TruesdeIl,
the second name on the library board
ticket. comes from the Third ward and
succeeds Prot. S. Oftedei. The latter
was warmly supported by large num-
Der, but failed to win out.

INTERESTING DECISION
Relating to Limit Of Liability of
Bank Shareholders.

An interesting decision has been
handed down by Judge Elliot in the
case of j. c. Harper VS.. w. N. Carroll,
assignee of Citizens Bank ct al, tried
before him last Saturday, in which he
defines the meaning of the law as it
applies to the double liability of stock
holders of banks. In his memorandum
Judge Elliott states the point in the
Q ,ntroversy concisely and plainly as
Follows:
ION the 9Th day of July, 1893. the
Citizens bank, corporation being in
solvent and unable to meet its obliga-
tons. suspended payment and made a
general assignment for the benefit Of
creditors. This action is brought for
the purpose of enforcing the statutory
liability of shareholders under article Q
OF the constitution of the state of Min.
nesota, and section ii, chapter SO of the
General Statutes of 1878. The defend.
ants, Hill Sons & Co., were holders of
5000 shares OF the stock of the cor
poration, and transferred the same

Judge Nelson Decides the Indict-
ments Are Not Good.
Judge Nelson, of the United States
district court. created something of a
sensation yesterday morning when he
dismissed all the prisoners in the cases
of the United States against the Great
Northern strikers. There were fifteen
cases in all, the first of which was
placed on trial last Friday, G. D.
O'Brien, OF st. Paul, appearing as the
attorney for the strikers. He moved to
have the action dismissed on q demur.
rer to the indictment. but Judge Nelson
decided to let it go to trial. Yesterday
morning, when court opened. he re-
marked that he had looked up the au-
thorities, and had come to the conclu-
sion that the indictments were not good.
Then he said:
"These indictments follow the Ian
guage of the statutes, and state that the
accused obstructed trains. Even If We
should go on with this trial and the
evidence should show the prisoners
guilty, would BIZ obliged to set the
verdict aside, as there are no specific
charges in the Indictment as to how the
alleged wrongful acts were perpetrated.
The demurrer is sustained and the
prisoners released"

great deal against the methods used in

IowA's celebration of the ninetieth
birthday of General George w. Jones
is a pleasant bit of contemporary his
tory. Most OF the great men who
have rendered distinguished services
to nations or to states are not recog-
nized until they are dead, when they
are accorded post-mortem honors
more or less satisfactory. Iowa has
inaugurated new departure and set
an example worthy Of imitation in
bestowing upon living benefactor
the highest honor In the gift OF the
State. The venerable statesman, SOL
dier, and jurist was made the guest
of the commonwealth by a special
act of the legislature, and enjoyed in
his old age one of those triumphs
that have been too rarely accorded
since the days of ancient Rome.
There was no politics, no PARTISAN
ship In the celebration. 1t was a
spontaneous demonstration of graft
tude and affection toward a venerable
old man by the people of the State
he had helped to found. The people
of Iowa have reason to be proud of
the gathering at the State House in
Des Moines. They have done credit
to themselves in doing honor to Gen.
eral Jones.
