The case is made out pretty clear by
Mr.. McCornick's reasoning, that this
bankruptcy bill is not burdened with
good for the west; and our people
should be earnest in protecting them
selves against injurious legislation.
Let Utah's citizens remember that
we are not so helpless down at Wash

We have there now two senators and
a representative who can at least be
active in warding off legislation mimi

Bla1ne's Objection to his Own Nomination.

Mr.. Halstead had gone in answer to a
summons from Mr.. Blaine J ''Mr. Blaine,
I think it Is too late. Ihave looked over

certain-the drift is your way. Why
precisely doyou object, and what exactly
do you think should happen9'
He replied in his rapid way with much
feeling, and I believe his very words
we're: "The objection to my nomination
is that cannot be elected. With the
South solid against us we cannot succeed
without New York, and cannot carry
that State. There are factions there and

JUDGE WEBER ON LIBEL
Language Of His Decision nthe BYram-
Gazette Libel Suit.

In acting upon the demurrer Of the
attorneys Of the Redwood Gazette to
the suit brought By Clerk Of Court BY
ram, charging the Gazette with libel
Gus publication. Judge Webber uses the
following language:
The publication complained of is sar-
castle, inelegant and unfreindly, but the
question is, does it charge the plaintiff
with acts constituting crime or which
would subject him to public hatred, con-
tempt or ridicule? In my opinion it
does neither. = "
The language of the publication cannot
be construed as charging the plaintiff
with anything except desire for re -elec-
tion to his present office Of Clerk Of
Court and to become person Of politi-
cal influence or o. 'boss'' of the Redwood
County Republicans, and that, for these
purposes, he had furnished liberal sup
ply of refreshments to possible dele
gate from the country. It is certainly
not unlawful or discreditable to aspire
to an official or influential position, nor
am I able to find any case in which it
has been held libelous to charge person
with furnishing refreshments for the pur-
pose of obtaining such position.
1t has been held iibeldus to state that
a member of the Legislature accomplished
the passage of bill by keeping open
house with liquors to other members,
But l think the case at bar very differ
ent, where the only charge is that re-
freshments were furnished to private
individual who possibly might be dele
gate to political convention one year
hence, for the purpose Of gaining politi-
cal advantage, "
Perhaps person who furnishes re-
freshments for the purpose of gaining
a political advantage, either at a primary
election Or otherwise, ought to be held in
public hatred, contempt or ridicule, but
I AM unable to find any case in which it
has been so determined, and, in Indiana,
where there is law against "treating"
voters, which there is not in this state,
it has been bell that publication charg-.
ing s6cn act is not libe1ous. If this
State is to be the first to adopt so rigid
rule, think it should originate from the
SuDreme Court.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES VAR
The Supreme Court Decision and its Prob-
able Effect.

The Supreme Court in determining the
Renville county-seat contest case, gives
the following syllabus, written by JUS
tice Collins:
For the purpose of determining the
number Of 'votes cast' at an election
held under the county seat removal act
OF 1889, all of the ballots cast. unintel-
llglble as we'll as ineligible, must be
considered. and to effect removal it
must afdrmatively appear that at least
90 per cent Of all votes or ballots cast
were in favor thereof.
AT the election in question 2,219 votes
were cast in favor of removal, 17SOvotes
against removal and 6S votes on ballots
were deposited in the ballot boxes, pre-
sumably by legal voters, from which it
was impossible to ascertain whether the
voters intended to vote for or against re-
moval. Held that the requisite SIS per
cent of the s'votes cast" was not OH
tanned.
The history of the Renville county
seat war, which is thus ended IN favor of
Beaver Falls, is interesting indeed. By
vote of the people at a legally con-
Quoted election, Olivia claimed the coun-
ty seat, but the officials refused to re-
move from Beaver Falls. The question
was raised as to whether "all the votes
cast'' or "all the votes counted" should
be considered, and the matter was final;
ly taken into court by the Olivia people
to compel the removal of the county Of
tcials. Smith of Montevideo cham
pioned the cause of Olivia and John Lind
that of Beaver Falls and Morton. Judge
Webber decided in favor of removal. and
then followed the appeal to the State
supreme court, with the above result.
This settles the matter for five wears
to come, but it is quite apparent that
several villages, including Morton, have
been watching the legal battle with
good deal of anxiety and with view of
eventually getting up a removal boom
of their own.

MADIGAN'S NEW AIR SHIP,
The Pioneer Press Describes the New
Invention,

A great deal of ofinterest is being taken in
an air ship model constructed by Attor-
ney NJ. NJ. Madigan, which he has sent
to the patent office at Washington and
for which he expects to secure patent
in a reasonable time. Mr.. Madigan has
been engaged on the cons truction of the
airship for fifteen years or more,
has now got It completed to his
entire satisfaction, and is con-
vinced that it will be an agent of
immense Importance as an engine of war
Many experts in mechanical contrivances
have examined the model air ship and
they, with the inventor, share the con-
viction, that it will effect all the inven.
tor clsims for it.
The air ship consists OF three pieces; a
conically shaped balloon, a propelline
attachment and car, The propelling
attachment is the piece in which the in
genulty is displayed. Madigan does not
wish this described meantime, but it
may be said about it, that the propeller
is of such simplicity that man, after
seeing it work, wonders that some child
long ago had not been able to solve. the
problem which it accomplishes. 1t SIM
ply takes advantage of natural forces in
way that boys at play can be seen do
ing almost any day in summer.
The inventor asserts that moderately
sized air ship can carry thereby five tons,
car be as eesily steered as an ocean
steamer, and can go right against the
wind as easily, if not more easily, than
an ordinary ocean steamship. -~.
"What is supposed to be the chief val
ne of the air ship?" was asked.
1T may lie used for any purpose of
locomotion, but is especially meant to
be utilized in war purposes"
'.What do you expect its velocity to
be-"
"From 10 to 500 miles an Lour, ac-
cording to the state of the atmosphere"
"Can you fire a gun from the air ship"
"That is not anticipated, If you get
high enough and let ball fall without
firing it, the firing will not be necessary.
The anticipation is that the projectiles
will be of the dynamite character, or
some equally deadly explosive."
'If the Venezuelan affair should de-
velope into war with England, would an
air ship he equal to al American war
ship as against England?"
eyes, to several dozens of war ships"
Madigan is waiting anx1ously the re-
port from the patent office, and is en-.
Enthusiastically hopeful that the govern
ment will take hold of the scheme. All
the scientific heads around here who have
seen the air ship are as anxious and hope
full of the result as the inventor is

HaIstead's Last Meeting With Blaine.

Halstead's Last Meeting With Blaine.
When Mr.. Blaine was for the last time
in New York on his way to Washington,
stopping as was his habit at the FifthAve-
nue. Hotel, he asked me to 60 with him
to his room fronting on Twenty third
Street on the parlor floor, and he slowly,
as if it were task, unlocked the door.
There was sparkle of autumnal crisp
ness in the air, and he had a fire, that
glittered and threw shadows about fit
fully. There was not much to say. 1t
was plain at last that Mr.. Blaine was
failing, that he had within few weeks
failed fast. His great, bright eyes were
greater than ever, but not SO bright. His
face was aYfully white; not that brainy
pallor that was familiar -somethig else {!
He seated himself in the light of the fire,
on an easy-chair. There was a knock at
his door, AID a servant handed HIM a
card, and he said: 'No;'' and we were
alone. bcould not think of word of
consolation ) and in moment he ap-
peared to have forgotten me, and stared
in fixed, rapr dream az the Pickering
flame in the CRATE. It occurred to me
to get up and 60 away quietly, as con-
versation was impossible-for there was
too much to say. It came to me that
ought not to leave HIM alone. Some.
thing in him reminded me of the mysti.
cal phrases of the transcended paragraph
of his oration on Garfield, picturing the
death of the second martyred President,
by the ocean, while far off white ships
touched the.sea and sky, aud the fevered
face of the dying man felt ''the breath OF
the eternal morning"
Some weeks earlier Mr.. Blaine and 1
had had deep talk about men and
things, and he was very kind, and his
boundless generosity of nature never re-
vealea itself with a greater or sadder
charm. He now remembered. that con-,
versationa as word disclosed and
said: 81 could have endured all things
if my boys had not died. The doo-,
opened, and his secretary walked in
and took Mr.. Blaine's hand for the last
time, saying, "Good- night and he said
with look that meant farewell,

DEATHS STEADY HARVEST.
Quite Number of Old Timers Yield to
the Grim Reaper.

The past few days have made notice.
able inroad among the old settlers of
this section. Following close upon the
death OF J. H. Manderfeld and Mr.. Pfaf,
comes the announcement that Nicholas
Sable had passed away at Mankato at
the age Of eighty-nine. Mr.. Sable came
H1o Minnesota in 1856 and settled at New
Ulm, where he lived until nine years ago.
He then removed to Mankato to reside
with his daughter, Mrs. Bangeter, his
wife having died quite few years ago.
His remains we're broug ght to this city on
Friday for burial and were inferred in
the Lutheran cemetery. The deceased
was the father of Mayor Koch's first
wife.
John Essig died at Springfield, where
he has been living of late years, on the
25th. He was born in Germany in 1912
and came to America over so years ago.
He located for time in New York State,
later on in Illinois and finally in Mime
sofa. He was one of the first settlers of
Milford and was always respected citi-
zen.
Isidur Luger, another old Brown Coun-
ty citizen, passed away at the hospital on
Friday after brief illness. Mr.. Luge1
was born in Vorelberg, Tyrol, in 1919.
Emigrating to this county, he accompa-
MED one of the first colonies that conclu-
ded to cast its lot il what is now New
Ulm. That was in 1855, and he has been
a resident of this vicinity ever since, hv-
ing most of the time in Cottonwood
township. His wife died many years ago
| and he was widower at the time of his
death. He was buried in the City Gem
etery on Saturday, Albert Steinhauser
delivering the address.
Sumner Ladd, an old and respected
St. Peter citizen, died at Minneapolis last
Thursday. The gentleman was quite
well-known here and was candidate IN
the Populist ticket two years ago for at
torney general. ..,.. s.- H.
Mrs. Elizabeth Bier, aged eighty seven
years, is also numbered among those who

at the hospital, dropsy was the cause of
her death. She was an aunt of John Kor-

time. " ..@
