I'm "a Suit Before the U. 5. Circuit
Court.


st. Paul, July 16.-A case which inter-
ests the entire milling W, rid is now on
trial in the United States circuit court at
st. Paul before Judge Williams Of Lit
tie Rock, Ark. William Il. Lee, ex-speak-
TT of the lower house of the Minnesota
legislature, is the plaintiff, and the Wash
burn-Crosby Milling company defendant,
alihor gh the defense is being conducted
by the National Miliers' association, near
ly all its members being interested, mas
much as suits will be instituted against
all millers using the device in question
without paying the patentee, MIR. Lee,
royalties. The patent in question in this
case is one covering a machine which
separates the wheat from the cockel, and
the fight is almost as important as was
the one in the celebrated middlings puri-
fer case. There is a great array of legal
talent. Mr.. Lee being represented by
Davis, Kellogg & Severance and Keith.
Evans, Thompson & Fairchild, while
Wirkler, Smith, Flanders, Bottom &

tional Millers' association and Koon,

TOBY Is DEAD.
l.. Exelrs 10000 Two-Year-Old Is
No More.

NO wore.
st. Paul, July 16.-Toby, the crack
two-year-old and the pride of the stable
of l.. Ezell, died at the Hamline track
Saturday night. Early last. week he
started in a race with Hughey Penny up.
Rounding the stretch Patrol Judge Sam
Morton saw that the horse was bleeding
and yelled to Penny to pull out. Penny
did so just in time, as he had barely got
his mount out of the bunch when Toby
fell. He was bleeding r~rofusely and was
taken to his stable. Since then the best
treatment fail"d to bring him around, aud
h, finally died. 1t is thought that in the
race, after he began to bleed, he was
compelled to breathe through his mouth,
and in so doirg filled his lungs with dust,
which was the cause of his death. Toby
was by Imp. Albert, out of Altiphone.
He was one of the best youngsters of the
year, and Ezsll refused $4,000 for the
colt some tine ago. He was entered to
run in the st. Paul stakes and the
Merchants stakes, and on past perform
ances had a good show of winning either
or Doth of the .ch events.

The Judicial Election,

The Gazette's partisan appeal two
weeks ago to Democrats to vote for
William Smith for circuit judge because
he is a Democrat, was we'll answered
by Watertown correspondent of The
Jefferson County Union in the last is
sue of that paper, as follows:
I regret this partisan effort to bring politics
into judicial election. The election will be
held on the first Tuesday of April. Mr.. Smith
is not the Democratic candidate. No political
conventions have been held, and both are in
dependent.
The legislature fixed the selection of
judges in the spring Of the year, instead of
the fall, to keep the Judiciary out of politics;
and for years all parties, with few excep-
tions have adhered to the policy.
In Rock and Green counties, where the Re-
publicans are in the majority, Mr. Smith is
supported by his friends as a non-partisan,
but in Jefferson county voters are told by The
Gazette, they are expected to give majority
for Mr.. Smith because he is Democrat.
Judge Bennett has been on the bench for
nearly twelve years and has proved himself
an able, honest and upright judge; not even
a suspicion has been cast upon him. His
character and ability haye never been ques-
toned, always pains-taking and saving of ex-
penses to the taxpayers.
For years the Republicans of this county
have ignored politics in judicial elections
Term after term they have voted for Judge
ColOnius, a Democrat, for county judge offer
ing no opposition whatever. AS cordially did
they support Justices Orton, Pinney and
WinslOw for the Supreme court, all of whom
are Democrats.
In accord with this, President Harrison
just before the close of his term appointed
and a Republican senate confirmed Mr.
Jackson, of Tennessee, to place on the Su-
preme bench of the United States; so did
Governor Hoard appoint Judge Siebecker,
a Democrat, judge of the Circuit court to fill
vacancy, in the Madison district.
In violation of this time -honored custom
The Gazette would array the Democratic
voters of the county against Judge Bennett
because he is q Republican, and have them
give their support to new and untried man
because he is a Democrat.
1t is to be hoped that the people will not
drag the administration of Justice into the
mire of political chances and barter away the
confidence we now have in the purity and i'm.
tegrity of IthOse who sit upon and do honor
to the bench throughout the state. Mr. Ben
net should have our support, not because he
is a Republican, but because he is an able
and upright judge; already proven to be the
right man in the right place. Men of both
parties support him in the other counties.
NON PARTISAN.

Mr.. Barwig and Fourth Term.

We clip from the Washington CORE
spondence of The Sentinel, the follow
ing which will be read with interest in
thisslocality:
Anent the situation in the Second Congress
sional district it is pretty certain that if the
Democrats there are banking on any alleged
pledge made prior to, during or following
the last convention at Watertown which
nominated Charles Barwig for a third term
there is going to be a heap Of fun in the
camp. tt is quite probable that Mr.. Bar
wigs friends will undertake to run him again
this year. Mr.. Barwig does not say he is
candidate but he does not hesitate to say
qualifedly that never did he make any pledge
to anyone, either before or after his nomina-
ton. Speaking about this matter he said:
II always made it plain that my nomination
for congress should not be contingent on any
pledge whatever Deals with certain cOun-
ties, leaving out of consideration other large
and equally worthy sections, have proved dis
astrous to the party in the Second district in
the past, and have always refused to enter
into any. was nominated by the party when
/ was not q candidate in the sense that |
would put forward any efforts to secure what
/ had twice previously been honored with.
AS to the future have made no promises
So it will at once be seen that from the
standpoint of one of the elements most prOmi-
nently concerned things are far from being
cooked up and ready for serving at the
next convention. Democrats here have a
great deal of interest in the remnant of the
old fighting Second" and its new territory,
and they look for one of the good old time
fights, the novelty Of which will be increased
by the participation of set of politicians
new to that particular field.
Mr.. Barwig is regular Joey Bag
stock. He is "sly, devilish sly" and
will come before the next Democratic
Congressional convention in this dis
trict candidate, in dead earnest, for
it's honors, though under obligations
not to do so. A broad smile will steal
over the countenances Of some who
read his pettifogging statements, bat
far less pleasing sensation will be pro-
voked in the mind of w. H. Rogers, of
Fort Atkinson, who has been banking
the last two years on the promises
made him by Barwig and some of his
DOuSG equity dcISSdIlOls IudG Iue uGAG
prize drawn from the congressional
wheel should 60 to this county. Let
Rogers speak out and tell the condi-
tions on which he left the field so alb
ruptly two years ago. Some of his JEFF
ferson county delegates could tale
unfold. also, if they would but open
their mouths. Judge Lamoreux, who
managed Barwig's campaign, would
also be an interesting witness, and the
editor ofrhe WATERFOWL Gazette would
prove good second as a narrator of
events which transpired at the noon
recess the day of the nomination when
the deal was made which retired
Rogers and brought success to Barwig.
Come, brethren, let as have the true
inwardness of the mysterious transac-
ton, which is bound to come out sooner
| or later

Sacred Heart College Celebration.
ST. Patrick's Literary and Dramatic
society gave their annual entertain
ment in the college hall Friday night,
March Is. Many distinguished guests
and a large and select audience at
tended to witness the hlstrionic efforts
of the young actors. The play chosen
for the occasion was Sheridan's cele
brated "Pizarro," drama in five acts;
and as an after-piece, "The Virginia
Mummy" side splitting farce, was
rendered. The college band, which
has recently been re-organized, under
the able dictatorship of Prof Thiele,
opened the entertainment. Its debut
was a pleasure and surprise to the
audience. The orator of the day, NJ. J.
Hierlihy, delivered well written ora
ton in a very creditable manner, and
judging from the frequent and hearty
applause which he received, his sub
ject. language and oratory were much
appreciated.
st. Patrick's society enjoys a high
reputation for proficiency on the stage.
And it is the general consensus of
opinion that "Pizarro" was the best
rendered play ever given by the stu
dents. That is saying great deal And
to Rev. Father Boland must its success
in great measure be credited; for it
was his persevering diligence in train
ing up the players in the knowledge of
dramatic art that contributed so much
to the excellence of Friday nights
performance. Each did his part we'll,
and hence helped to make the whole
what it was-a thorough success. The
leading parts were we'll filed by T.
J. Geraghty as Elviro and W. Murphy
as Alonzo. The acting of Walsh and
Geraghty merited hearty encomiums;
and they certainly were the stars.
McNally WAS without doubt very fine,
considering that he had the most diff
icult part; while not less appreciated
were the efforts of Will Murphy. Of
the other characters. Stone, Mulberger,
Williams, Sullivan, Parden and Jacques
deserve special mention for their rem
dition of short but difficult parts.
Between the acts the audience were
treated to some choice vocal and instru-
mental music. Prof. Thiele's cornet
solo and Prof. Hawley's vocal effort
elected much applause-needless to
say, well m erited.
"The Virginia Mummy" made an
agreeable ending tc the evenings pro-
gramme, and the young actors dis
played their versatility by some fine
bits of comedy work. The followingis
the cast of characters:
