A GOOD MANY WANT LIND
Republican Editors Give Voice to thei1
Choice for q. s. Senator.
Washburne Leads, but Lind has Many Sup
porte rs.
The Situation with Regard to other Of
fees as Sized-up by tho Same Observers.

The Minneapolis Tribune of Saturday
contained interviews with seventy-nine
Republican editors throughout the state
regarding the political situation. Among
other things they were asked to state
who seemed to be the favorite in their
sections for z. S. Senator and the re-
plies as whole occasion surprise.
Asummary of the returns is as follows
26 are for Washburne unqualifedly, II
probably and conditionally or as sec
ond choice; are unqualifedly for Mel
son and conditionally; Dunnell, Clapp
and Judge Start each have supporter
while John Lind has eight who are
for him in preference to all others and
five who will support him If candidate.
The editors who favor Lind are w. C,
Whiteman, Ortonville Herald-Star, G.. T.
Larson, Lincoln County Journal, J. B:
Crasford, Lakefeld Standard, E. E.
Cook, Hector Mirror, S. S. Lewis, Can

II. Huebner, Winthrop News, J. A.Max-
we'll, Fulda Republican, Geo. B. Miller,
Balaton Eagle, and V. W. Lothrop,
Tracy Trumpet. a good many OF the
editors do not commit themselves or in
innate that they know of no crystalized
sentiment.
Apparently there is no opposition to
either Nelson or Clough. For auditor
Dunn Of Princeton seems to be in the
lead, Koerner leads in the list Of candi-
dates for treasurer and Brown is the gem
|eral favorite for secretary of state. s'
The Populists will hold their conyen-
ton on the tenth Of July the day before

st. Peter Herald: After the Grand Ju-
ry had completed its labors for the pres
ent term of court, the members unami
ously adopted the following resolutions
commendatory of the past service of
Judge Webber and urged him to again
consent to be a candidate for the high
position which he now occupies. The
resolutions follow:
Whereas. the timeis approaching when
it will be necessary to place in nomina-
tion candidate for the Office of Judge
of the Ninth Judicial District.
And Whereas, The Hon. B. F. Web
Der, the present official occupant has
honorably, faithfully andimpartially dis
charged the arduous duties of this office
and recognizing his ability and integrity
as an eminent jurist, a wise and CO nsci-
entious Judge upon the bench, a moral
and upright citizen in every walk of life;
Therefore be itresolved, that the Grand
Jury of Nicollet county earnestly urge
the Hon. B. F. Webber to allow his name
to be used as his own successor for the
Office of Judge of this District, tender
ing him our active support as disinter-
ested citizens, having the welfare of the
District at heart, and desiring the keep
ing of the judiciary out of politics.
Anticipating favorable response from
the electors of this District to this re-
quest; be it further resolved by the men,
bers of the Grand Jury Of the General
May term held at St. Peter, Mimi, May,
1894, that copy of these resolutions be
published in the newspapers Of this
county, and that copy thereof be made
and presented to the Hon. B. F. Webber
in person, with tho best wishes of the
members Of this Grand Jury.

All Want DR.. Finn.

Echo Enterprise: DR.. w. D. Finn is
having quite boom for State Senator
over in his district. We do not think
there is better man in that, t,ssdistrict
than the genial Doctor.
Lac qui Parle'Press: The people of
Redwood county are pushing DR.. Finn,
of Redwood, for State Senator fromRthat
district. The election would be case
of substituting brains for spectacles,
s'pants" and cheek, for that,,is about all
that district had in the last legislature.
Speaking on the silver question Robt.
G.. Ingersoll says: ssWe need Etwice as
much money per capita to do the bust
ness of this country as is needed to do
the business OF any other country. do
not think the few should have the right
to combine to increase the value of what
people call money againstsss.the debtor,
and in favor of the creditor. Iwant the
free coinage Of all the silverthat yeu can
win from the silver mines Of America
and if foreign countries dc not want our
silver we will not trade with them.
Merriam as a silver advocate means
Merriam as candidate for the q. s.
senate.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1894-05-23

Redwood Gazette -Inasmuch as sneith-
er the Democratic or Republican parties
of the Ninth Judicial district have anv
other candidate than Judge Webber for
district judge to succeed himself, 1t is
highly probable that the committee will
not call convention, but take it upon
themselves to place Judge Webber in
nomination as non-partisan candidate.
Judge Webber has received the unani.
nous support of the Republican press
of his district, strong support from such
leading papers as the St. Peter Herald
and Journal, requests to stand as can
didate from the various grand and petit
juries at the spring terms of court, and
the committees would certainly be war
ranted in taking such action. Judge
Webber's career on the bench in the past
is eulogium of the man. Itstands as
monument to future judges of the dis
trict, and to judges of other districts,
and to the coming gencsations, as ashaft
to what can be done by strict adherence
to right and justice to all men.

Probability that No Convention Will be

St. Peter Tribune: Judge Webber will

verdict Of the people expressed orally.
Marshall Reporter: The grand juries
OF both Renville and Redwood counties
presented Judge Webber with resolutions
Of esteem, and asked him to be Q candi-
date for reelection next fall. Judge
Webber has made good many friends
BY hisdhonorable course as district
judge.
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1894-05-23

Sleepy Eye Dispatch 1T is not at all
surprising that Judge Webber should be
spoken of for reelection to the bench IN
this district but to US it seems that he is
entitled to little moro recognition from
the public-he would make first class
supreme court judge and there's where
The DISPATCH would like to see him
land. His honor has earned a promo
tion and on the Minnesota supreme bench
his superior judicial ability would find
wider field. Our supreme bench needs
such men as Webher and this judicial
district would honor itself by making it
possible for the state to secure his servi-
ces.

parted this life July II, 1894. She pro
fessed faith in Christ in 1866 and was
baptized into the fellowship of the
Baptist Church Of Christ, at Limestone,
by Elder Robert Lee, in 1874.
She wasthe mother of three children,
two of which with her husband, are
left TO mourn her loss. She was a kind
and aHectionate wife, q tender mother,
good neighbor, kind to the sick and
distressed, was worthy of the love of
all who knew her.
She is gone from earth; we see her
no more; there is u vacant chair
around the family h%earthstone; her
seat in church will be filled no more,
but from her ~unwavering faith in
Christ and her Christian walk we be-
lieve our earthly loss is her eternal
gain, and all who love and serve the
Lord will see her again in a home in
heaven; she said she was going there.
Then let us not weep as those who have
no hope, but let us humbly bow at
Gods command and say thy will be
done. j. A. S.

We do not think. we ever saw a more
quiet time in all our life than now
prevails in this part of the moral
vineyard. In fact everything is so
quiet we get no dots. There is a fair
acreage of land broke for wheat and
winter oats, and a number of our far
mers are done their fall breaking, and
oats sowing will soon begin. Sellers
and Bashor, of Pleasant Valley, have
about finished up the t%hreshing; they
did the incest work of any machine
that has threshed in this section for
years. Mrs. Tolbert Martin, who came
so being killed by a runaway horse
some days ago, we are glad to note, is
fast improving under the skillful treat
ment of DR.. Basket. Anew boy claims
protection under the parental roof of
Gentry Hartman. Ed. Stafford is all
smiles over the fruits of his married
life. 1t is a girl. Sore mouth is rag
ing in this section. Miss Alice Dunn
is on the sick list, a throat trouble
is the cause. Corn crops are fine in

EDITORIAL ~BREVTTIES.

The biggest and best piece of news
published in a long time, if only it
proves to be true, is that DR.. Koch has
found a sure antidote for diphtheria.
Mr.. Cleveland gave good reasons for
vetoing the tariff bill in his Wilson let
ter. Now he ought to write another
letter giving his reasons for not vetoing
it.
The islet of Massowa, in the Red Sea,
where Italy is sending its anarchists,
is n of the hottest in the world, and
escape from it in that sterile region
would be very difficult, The plan of
sending the anarchists somewhere to
practice their cult upon each other is
meeting with favor.
The Democrats could stand it better
if it were not for Tom Reeds persistent
guying.
In a speech in London recently Lord
Salisbury said of Great Britain:
while the population of the country
grows constantly, the means of en-
ployment does not increase with equal
rapidity. The tariff wall which sepa-
rates Great Britain from almost every
other civilized nation is rendering the
chances of self support even fewer
And yet free trade was to have been
an unmixed blessing, according to the
prophets of the English and American
free trade school.
If the theory of the Jersey City
preacher that there are no women in
heaven is right, the most interesting
thing for the men there will be the
possibilities of their own ribs.
