Thomas Priestley was promoted to the
captaincy of the company. In the
early spring of 1864 six companies of
the 3Oth Wis. were ordered to report

as it was at that time. After a three
months campaign, against the In

the rest were driven across the Missouri
river. The six companies were order
ed on their return Illrch to st. Paul.
where they were ordered to kentucky,
to rejoin the other four companies of
the regiment Arriving at st. Louis,
the detachments were given rest of
two days, when they we've ordered to

from Paducah, the regiment was
ordered to Nashville, Tenn, but on
arriving at Bowling Green, Ky, were
ordered on garrison duty at that
place. After the battle of Nashville,
the regiment was ordered to Louis

prison; and from there the regiment
divided into detachments, and scatter

The Retiring Star Clothing House.

Our retail store will run for while
yet to dispose of our winter stock,
which is still large, remembering it
invoiced nearly $4,000 when we an
nounced our intention to retire from
the retail clothing business.
Our attitude just now differs from
any other clothier, even from our
former position. We must get out of
our present business for reasons we
hope to state to you all in the near
future.
Wise men, intelligent men, sensible
or men of any degree or knowledge
and realization, will stop and think
where a merchant so strongly declares
his intention to retire from business
thatEsurely big bargains await them.
We will say right here that we will
sell our stock no matter what the con-
sequences will be; we must get out of
here.
Winter is now on hand, and every
male being needs something in the
clothing line. Why pay big price
for same when you can buy it at a
sacrifice?
slThose that have bought goods here
will bear witness to our statement.

Foremost among the attractions at

toned Hoyt's masterpiece of farce,

paper reader as well a theatre-goer, is
familiar with the superior merit of
this capital farce, and it's two years
stay at Mr.. Hoyt's New York theatre
is matter of history. 1t is easy to
account, in view of this fact, for the
triumph achieved en-tOur. But with
out New York endorsement ga Trip

torious to obtain lasting hold upon
the theatre-goer everywhere. Its
pretty story, it's beautiful scenic in
vestitute and it's inumerable bright
features combined to make up an
evenings entertainment of far more
than ordinary enjoyment. Next Mon
day, Oct. 29th.

Chief of Police Yates needs more
men and he will make desperate eff
fort to get them.
'We are terribly short of men, said
he, "and town the size of Mankato
should be well protected in this re-
spect. One of our policemen has a
patrol some two miles in length, while
the territory of the five other men at
my command is proportionately
expansive Under our charter we
annot increase the force
but | am informed on good
authority that a vigorous effort will
be made at the forthcoming session of
the legislature to have special act
passed toward the enlarging of our
force.
''lt will do all right as it is until
something unusual happens. At such
timewe need adequate service and
need it in a hurry"
The Chief remarked that it was his
intention to keep the corners of the
business streets clear of loafers at
night and as much during the day as
possible. He shas instructed his
men to rigidly enforce this rule, and
''move on" will now be on the tongues

THE GUENTHER HILL DITCH.
John Adams, resident of the
vicinity of Guenther hill, appeared be-
fore City Engineer Haynes and made
a formal complaint against the main
tenance of the ditch created by the
city to purge the land to the eastward
of stagnant' water, This is one of
many protests that have been filed
against the obnoxious furrow during
the past few days. The sewer COM
mittee will probably pipe the ditch
and fill it up, although it is possible
that the pipe will not be adequate to
carry off the water from melting
SHOWS and spring freshets.
''The ditch is dangerous" said Mr..
Adams" There are no lights or dan
ger signals. Our children are in
momentary danger of tumbling head
long into the hole. The accident to
my aged father last spring who went
to the bottom, breaking his arm in
the fall, has not been forgotten. The
owners Of dwellings along the ditch
have difficulty in renting their
property, as few can be found who
care to assume the risk of accident to
themselves and children. 1t is caving
in all along and presents disagreeable
sight"

sacred interests of humanity. A man
who has no higher conception of the
judicial function than to prostitute his
high place to the uses of political
mountebanks would be more dangerous
on the supreme bench than he would be
as governor of the state, for in many
possible instances the supreme court may
set aside the acts of the chief executive.
Such man is John w. Wills, the
Populist candidate for asso, ,iate stice
OF the supreme court Finding himself

Mr.. Willis allied himself with the
most Objectionable political element of

cured nomination for judge of the
district court. By the same means
which encompassed his nomination, he
was elected. He has served his mas
ters we'll, for upon the first casion in
which his services were demanded he
laid his honor, his integrity and his
good name upon the altar of the gang,
and rendered decision which has made
him the laughing stock of the state. It
was to the effect that man might
come into court as witness, swear that
he had not voted, but that he wanted
to vote, and if he had, he would have
voted for a certain candidate, and have
this statement checked up as vote for
such candidate.
This decision resulted in the seating
of man who was defeated at the polls,
and Judge Willis became still more pop.
ular with certain class of voters. It
is matter of record that Judge Will

OF his own Judicial district, that nearly
every lawyer therein is appealing to the
people of the state to avert the calamity
of his election Judge Charles E.
Flandreau, one of the most prominent
Democrats of the state, one of the
brightest lights of the legal profession,
and man who was himself an honor
and an ornament to the supreme bench,
has stated upon a public platform in
the presence of candidates for state of.
fees, that no self respecting Democrat
can vote to degrade the supreme bench
by the election of John w. Willis.
Mr.. Willis subscr4 bed to the platform
and principles of the Populist party,
which he promptly repudiated when he
found it was likely to defeat him for
the Democratic endorsement, and when
he declared that he had not expended
one dollar to any campaign fund, his
check for 500 turned up with the en-
dorsement of the Populist committee.
The legislative department. of the
state government may be corrupt and nc
fatal consequences need follow The
executive department may be weak,
and the state could survive it.
But once permit the judicial
department to fall into the
hands of political demagogues, and no
single industry in the state could pros.
per. The supreme rights of man would
at once become subservient to the de.
mands of political expediency.
There is no question of party involved
in this matter, for John W. Willis rep
resents no party, except the party of
the first part, to wit, John w. Willis.
He repudiated his Democracy at the
behests of the Populists, and as readily
repudiated his pledges to the Populists.
1t is simply matter that involves the
honor and credit of state, and woe
betide that state if the rights of the
people are to be lightly weighed in the
balance against the demands of dema-
gogues, with John w. Willis as weigh.
master.
In conclusion, we urg upon the vot.
ers of the state not to overlook the inn
portance of casting their ballots for
associate justice of the supreme court
in the right direction at the coming
election. The ballot is a long one,
and voters should be careful to mark
the candidates of their choice clear to
the last man.
