The Republican state committee
will meet in St. Paul on May 10 to
take action regarding the calling
of the stat: convention. There is
some talk of calling the state con-
vention for. June 81, but that
seems much too early. 1t would
make a campaign Of twenty weeks,
while a campaign of ten weeks
would be fully long enough. The
people are educated up to voting
right now, and there is no call for
a five months campaign. s

There is law suit on hand in this
town. The trial is to come off the
18th before Justice Shaw III the CITY.
of Lit tie Falls. The starting point
was that Mr.. Janiats put new
fence across the main part of the
public highway that has been iii use
by the public for over twenty wears
and q great amount Of public labor
has been expended in clearing and
grading it. This spring without q
word OF " arning Mr.. J aniats fenced
in about eighty rods of it. XII.
I Gunderson, the overseer, was or
dered to remove the nuisance. Mr..
Janiats was notified to remove the
fence, at his refusal Mr.. Gunderson.
Davies and Kupka removed parts Of
it SO as to give the public free use Of
the road. Mr.. Janiats made out q
complaint against Gunderson and
K,A.upka, and preparations are. be-
ing made to prosecute the case. It
is getting to be a common practice
here to fence a little OF the road in
when it is cleared, cultivate it or
fill it with stumps and all manner OF
rubbish until it is not safe to drive a
team OH the road after dark. The
overseers and supervisors ought to
take active part in such cases and
prosecute vio)aters of the law for
such acts and it would be a great
help in the right direction for a good
road. The same rule will apply
to the neighboring towns as this is
no worse than others.

Two Of the "dead SURF" railroad

Two Of the "dead sure" railroad
projects for Northern Minnesota
this year have already been
Abandoned One was the Great
Northern extension that was to be
built from Fosston in the Red
River valley to Duluth, which
President Hill says will not be
built this year, and the other was
the extension of the Duluth &
Winnipeg. These lines would
have done much to develop the
northern part of the state, but the
unfavorable. trade and financial
conditions Of the present year have
made their constructions inprac-
ticable. The first prospero JUS year

TONNE ON BROKER PROMISES.

Chicago Inter Ocean Il IS no
disparagement Of the other speech
es to say that the event Of the
evening lat the Marc ette club
banquet was the arraignment Of
the Democ cratic party 81 Charles
a. Towne, the rising sun Of Min
nesota His theme was Broken
Promises, and Ills carefully pre-.
pared speech, no less eloquent be-
cause committed to writing, was .
MASTERPIECE Every point was
fairly taken. He recalled the
broken promise Of some SO years
ago. when the Democracy elected
Polk on the promise Of passing
the protective tariff which the
traitorous Tyler had vetoed, but
instead passed the free trade
Walker tariff. But Mr.. Towne
did not dwell upon matters of his
tory IN distinction from current
events, fastening on rather to an
arraignment Of the Democracy for
what it had done in turning the
glorious summer Of American
prosperity into the present winter
Of discomfort and universal calam-
ity. The promise Of a change is
the one pledge kept. No one,
said Mr.. Towne, looking Oh the
country now who had last seen it
IN 1892 would recognize it. If the
farmer soWs at all it is from force
Of habit, and he has no idea that
it will do him any good to reap
anything. The capitalist won +
invest-not if he knows it. ! And
the laboror either makes precarious
ministry to the sharpestnecsssities
Of himself and family with the
diminished wage of reduced and
uncertain employment or yokes
his mute misery with that Of thou,
sands of his fellows and staggers
toward the city Of Washin gton on
vague and vain campaign against
Democratic obstinacy and ignor-
ance. There is no vain of exag-
geration IN this. On the con-
trary, the most vivid language
would fail to do justice to the
theme. The club was in perfect
accord with the speaker, and so, it
may be added, is the public. No
inconsiderable element of the
Democracy is indignant with it's
own party for it's own imbecility
in doing nothing but mischief,

ON PAROLE.
Frank Randall, the Boy Con
vict, Released from Still
water. sT r.

"A telegram from Saltwater states
that Frank Randall, Of Morrison
county, has been pardoned from the
state penitentiary at that place.
This means that he will enjoy his
liberty, but fora time will be under
the orders of the authorities.
On March 8, 1889, Randall was SEN
fenced to life imprisonment at Still
water, having plead guilty to the
charge Of murder in the second de-
gree: s.. ~
fenced was never satisfactorily ae-
counted for. According to the story
of John Sumner, ON the evening of
Oct. 2, 1883, Randall. aged II, and
himself, aged Is, were out hunting
cows near Fort Ripley, when they
saw August Ziegler, a hermit, COM
ing down river in Il boat. Randall,
SO Sumner said, called him over and
when near the shore shot him with
a 1890 winchester. The murder was
concealed until Oct, 10, when Sumner
gave it away, and the body was
found week later.
Randall's case came up at the
March, 1889, term OF district court
and his father was about to mort
gage his home in order to employ an
attorney when the prisonerrequested
him not to do it.. lie then plead
guilty to the crime OF murder in the
second degree and was sentenced as
above stated. r. ~1~"" -~.
Frank Randall was a sickly boy
when sentenced and after being sent
to prison became worse. He has
been in "a Their poor health during his
entire imprisonment.
Sumner rtainly lied in giving his
testimony against Randall before
the cOrOner's jury, and Randall re-
fused to give the facts, except to say
that he did not do the shooting. He
said that he plead guilty because it
would have taken his fathers home
to pay for his defense, and that with
his companions testimony against
him the expenditure might prove
useless. He was always confident OF
being released after a short imprison-
| ment, and lis father, who lives at
Lincoln, in this county, has been con
tinuOusly working to help him out
Randall's parole will be generally
endorsed by the people of this To-
cality. ..@<.:- =. /.

NOT FROM THE SOUTH.

The Baltimore Sun says that it
is a F'signifcant. circumstance
that no Coxeyites come from the
South, and The St. Cloud Times
quotes the Suns extended remarks
with the evident idea that there
is something very creditable to the
South in the fact that there are
no evidences Of public disap-
proval there Of the conduct Of con
gress. The Southern leaders in
congress control the legislation at
present, and it would be absurd to
expect any kind Of protests Or dis
satisfaction from that section.
The fact that Southern ideas are
powerful in shaping the laws is
just what is postponing the time
Of return Of prosperity in the
| North and West. The Southern
notions Of finance and tariff are
different from those Of the North,
and when one side controls the
other is dissatisfied. Il will b.
Willingly conceded that the South
is pleased over what is being at
tempted by the majority in con.
gress, but it is certain that the
North is not.

through. Mr.. Westerman's back.
ers, however, are not without wis
dom, for they say that they will
not push their candidate into the
jaws Of defeat. IF in the end 1T
appears that he has no chance TO.
win he will be pulled off the track.
On account Of the candidacy Of
Mr.. Westerman the Republicans
of ST. Cloud are understood to be
viewing the candidacy. Of Bob
Dunn for state auditor with some
alarm. It is reasonably certain
that the Sixth district cannot land
two prizes, and Westerman S
friends will be entirely willing
that Dunn be defeated if thereby
their own favorite will be bene.

St. Cloud and the territory that
