The identified Dead.

Among the many ''corpses" at the
political morgue that have been iden-
tilted are: Prof. Wilson of the Will
son bill, law which compels farmers
to take 81 per ton less for their hay
than they ought to receive. VIM. NJ.
Springer who saw SO much in Queen
Lii to admire. Gen. Black of pen
sion notoriety. Andy Hunter, who
labored SO hard to secure free dia-
monds that factory hands might
wear them while the mills are shut
down. McVeigh the sugar king;
Thomas johnson of Ohio, the free
wool advocate; Mr.. Bland, the bland
champion of free silver; Mr.. Hatch,
who could not incubate his anti
option bill; and sockless Jerry Simp-
son got it socked to him where it
will be of most value to his constitu-
ents. These, with scores OF other
illustrious statesmen, are all dead,
and will be laid away in the trenches
prepared for them. The chilly winds
of November will sing sad requiem
over the trench. Let them rest,
they have earned sweet repose.

The pops need take no credit to
themselves for the defeat of the re-
publican candidates for the senate
and house in the Cottonwood jackson
district. The candidates named on
the republican ticket did not meet
with the endorsement of the party

way the republicans have of doing
things; if they cannot endorse can
didate they vote against him-no par
ty lash cracks over the head of repub-
lican voters. Mr.. Sevatson, the gen
tleman elected to the senate, was a
republican up to four years ago, when
he was forced to run indie

McCleary, of the Second district. He
demonstrated his popularity by Sc
curing, the largest plura lily of any
candidate, having more than 10000
votes above that of his democratic

ished gentleman, and his scholarly
attachments would make him an orn-

proper time. Our candidate is a man
of wide reputation, a man of com
handing address and appearance,
man who can command support from
a greater scope of territory than any
other thus far mentioned for the pos
ition. He is one of
the most upright and impartial men.
A man of great capabilities and thor
oughly honest in politics as we'll as
in business. He has had legislative
experience, and is thoroughly familiar
with the duties and requirements of

he consent to become an active can

All the old members, of the house
would rally around his standard and
give him the most loyal and en-
thusiastic support. No member of
the last house stands in higher esti-
timation with his colleagues than our
candidate one of them would
like to cast vote against him. He
is a man of ripe experience, and
would make an ideal presiding officer,

Daily Free Press commenting on the
speakership, says: The Second dis
trict delegation should go to St. Paul
next January and demand the speak
ership. With the right man as a
candidate the demand will be grant
ed. It is not likely that the Twin
Cities will put forth any claims.
They have been more than generously
treated in all such matters, and it will
no doubt afford the delegations from
those cities pleasure to assist good

It has occurred to the Free Press
that Hon. Dan. Shell, of Worthing-
ton, who served in the last House,
would make such a candidate for
speaker as republicans from every
quarter of the state would be glad to
support. He has an even tempered,
considerate, conservative AND just
man in every sense. He is gentle
man Of commanding presence and
most genial disposition. He would
make speaker of exceptional merit,
and his. candidacy could not fail to
receive most favorable consideration.
Let the friends of Mr.. Shell take
the matter up and push the claims of

the right kind of work in time, he can
be elected, provided he will give his
consent to become candidate. And

Ex-senator Sabin is said to be a
candidate for y. S. Senator to sue
coed Senator W. D. Washburn. Mr..
Sabin, if he feels the. temper of the
people of Minnesota, must know that
he is not even a possibility in the con-
test. The late election, we believe,
was as much of an endorsement of Mr..
Washburn as it was to stamp disap-
prevail upon democracy. Mr.. Sabip,
it is we'll known, has bitter dislike
for Mr.. Washburn, and his candidacy.
can only be in the interest of some
one else. He cannot hope to win.
Senator Washburn is in touch with
the great business interests of the
northwest, and has made most val
liable member, in fact he is one of the
best senators the state has ever had.
The legislature is so over whelmingly
republican that we do not see how
Senator Washburn can be defeated. "
Minnesota Republicans have point
ed with pride to Gov. Nelson's mag
nificent plurality of more than 10000
over Owen. They can now point with
still greater pride to the fact that the
governor has an actual majority over
the combined votes of all the other
andidates-Populist, Democrat and
Prohibition. The totals are:
NELSON ............... .l4o,Ooo
owen. 81, 195
DeChoI ........ 'OO,1fO
Hilleboe .................. $50
Nelson's actual majority is 1899. Had
there been fusion between the Dem
ocrats and Populists his majority
would probably have been much
larger. twill be seen that the Prohi-
bition vote is only about one half OF
the estimates Of it previous to cleo
ton and a half what it usually is. It
is believed that the missing Prohibi
ton vote went to Owen and cannot be
counted as a permanent Populist

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-At least 20
members of the house crowded into the
area in front of the speakers rostrum to-
day in an effort TO secure the passage by
unanimous consent of bills of local i'm
portance, but English of New Jersey,
who has inaugurated war of retaliation
against unanimous consent legislation
until measure of his is passed, was on
guard and obdurate. However, he al
lowed joint resolution, offered by Liv-
ingston of Georgia, providing for the en-
trance of foreign exhibits to the cotton
states' international exposition at At
lanta next year, to go through.
"This bill, understand, involves the

amid laughter.
English also allowed the senate bill
amending the act creating the court OF
appeals of the District of Columbia, to
pass. English finally demanded the
regular order.
A joint resolution, providing for hol-
iday recess from Saturday, December %,
10 Thursdey, January 3, was adopted.
The house then, on Springer's motion,
went into committee of the whole for
further consideration of the currency
bill.
Rtndleton of West Virginia was recog-
aized by the chairman, but before he
sould proceed, johnson of Indiana arose
FOR the purpose. he stated, of propound-
ing an inquiry to the chairman of the
banking committee.
'L understand" said he, sat meet
ing of the democratic members of the
banking committee last night it was de-
cided to offer substitute to the pending
measure, and the consent of the secre-
tary was secured. Is my information
correct? If so, L would suggest the SUBJ
stitute be now offered in order that we
can proceed intelligently."
"Some time during the afternoon, %
replied Springer, ''I will say it is my in
tention to introduce q substitute for the
pending bill.''
Springer, however, denied the consent
of the secretary of the treasury had been
asked for or obtained. The democratic
members of the committee were respon-
sible for the substitute.
