THE HERALD last week took occas-
ion to practi ically suggest that the
contemplated retirement OF Judge
Baxter from the bench was the only
unpopular and unjust thing attaching
to his long and honorable trust of
that high Office which he adorns. The
bar associations within his district
are moved by the same consideration,
and very properly have expressed
tn hsmselves in addresses to his honor,
the Judge. Surely in the face of such
expression Judge Baxter cannot fail
to see his plain duty, and that will be
all that will be necessary to insure it's
discharge. No, Judge Baxter must re-
main upon the bench another term, even
though he sacrifice his desire and his
pleasure.
The Seventh Judicial District of
Minnesota stands paramount in the
State of MINES ota in the character and
qualification of it's Judges-and that
without the least reflection upon any
other district in the state. Judges
Searle and Baxter are ideal arbiters.
Scholarly and learned, not only in the
law primarily, but in the broader field
of general knowledge which SO aptly
supplements the qualification for the
Judgeship. Both are strongly stepped
in the principles of equity and fair
ness and every litigant is assured of a
fair, impartial and SO far as possible,
satisfactory adjustment of his griev-
ancies, whether civil or criminal. The
scales of justice were never poised by
truer hands than theirs. When the
ermine shall slip from their soldiers it
will be free from spot or wrinkle by
reason of their having worn it.

Rather Warm.

The Melrose Beacon evidently don't
like the new ''reform" government of
that extremely new city, which went in
to power on January 1st. 1t says:
Mayor Campbell then took the bull
squal ely by the horns. He ordered
the police force to deposit on the table
all paraphernalia in the way of guns,
slung shots, clubs, shackles, come a.
longs, private correspondence, scared
and yellow regulations, and all other
things belonging to the city. The con-
tents of the city treasury were over
looked. A miscellaneous collection of
stuff was unloaded by Officers Collins
and Dederick. Then, with very digni-
fed and impressive ceremonies, Mayor
Campbell invested Joe Kramer and
Peter Dederick with the police author
rity of the city, and Kramer showed
his appreciation of the ''honor" by
going out and loading up on red-eye,
using abusive language tow ard the
Beacon with the undoubted purpose OF
attempting to provoke an assault, and
conducting himself in otherwise un-
geLtlemanly ways. 1t is currently re-
ported that Mayor Campbell appointed
Kramer ''just to spise'' the Beacon,
and few others, in the event of which
he is doubtless satisfied. If size,
strength, vindictive disposition, and
a capacity for booze are the prime re-
quirements for a police officer for Mel
rose, doubtless Mayor Campbell made
no mistake in appointing Joe Kra-

State politics are attracting atten-
tion and already numbers of states
have been exploited. The present Of
ficers with the substitution of S. r.
Van SAINT for Gov. Clough has been
suggested. A complete new set with
one or two exception has also been
suggested. "Machine' and "anti-ma-
chine tickets are talked about. But
there is one thing of which all may be
assured-the plain, common people
are going to have hand and voice
in the selection of the next lot of state
officers-and it would be we'll to bear
that fact in mind.

THE vigorous and versatile Doc.
Campbell of Melrose is Mayor of that
city, and will be in unmistakeable evil
dence as such for some time to come
unless, in a spasm of ill-directed pub
lie spirit and misdirected virtuous i'm

him. The customs of the country
which have crystalized into the unwrit-
ten common law of the land doesn't
seem to overawe the Doctor. He pro-
poses to enforce the statute law of the

STATE TROOPS ASSIGNED.
Two Of New jerseys Regiments
to Go to Washington and
Chickamauga.

WASHINGTON. May 10, 1s98.-Repeateds
requests have come from all sections of
the country for information as to where
the various organizations of State troops,
which are being mustered into the
United States service, are to be sent
Secretary Alger yesterday furnished a
statement showing the destination of the
volunteer troops. 1t appears that the ami
mating purpose of the department in
making the assignments was to divide
the volunteer forces in such a way as to
be available for three distinct purposes.
The first regiments raised in each State
mustered in and found ready for service
are to be sent to Chickamauga to be
licked into shape Thence they will be
sent to Tampa and other Gulf ports, in
cluding Mobile, New Orleans and Calves
ton, preparatory to enbarking for Cuba.
The second division of regiments go to
Washington, where they are to form a
grand reserve, ready to reinforce the Gu
ban army at any moment, to man the
coast defences or for other purposes.
The third division is to remain for the
present in the States in which the organ
izations are mustered, subject to call for
duty in the Philippines or for general
reserve purposes. Possibly they may never
be called upon to leave their native
StateS
New Jersey will send one regiment of
infantry to Washington, one to Chicka-
mauga and will have one assigned for
coast defence and reserve.

'SENELL WON'T Be CAUGHT
Will Refuse the Major Gen
eralship to Remain in
the Senate.

WASHINGTON, May 10, 1S9S-Senator
Sewen has not yet. decided absolutely
whether he will accept the nomination
to major generalship in the volunteer
army, but it is understood from reliable
sources that his determination in the
matter will depend entirely upon whether
his acceptance will require the resi- igna-
ton of his seat in the Senate. He has
told some of his closest friends that
rather than surrender his seat he will
forego the privilege of going to the war,
desirous as he is of going
This decision is in accord with the ad-
vice of his Republican friends in the Sem
ate, to whom General Sewells nominal
tion has been a matter of no small con-
cern. They have from the first taken the
position that 1t is an easier matter to get
major generals than TO get Republican.
Senator'S and Senator Sewell has con-
sentcd to leave the decision of the ques-
ton otile Attorney General of the United
States and the Attorney General of New
Jersey The matter has been referred to
Them and if they decided that he cannot
legally hold both offices he will resign
the commission of major general and re-
main in the Senate.
There is no doubt that in case of a
vacancy in the Senate the present Gov
ernor would appoint a Republican,, but
as his appointment would only hold until
the Legislature meets next winter, and
as there is no foretelling what it's political
complexion may be, 1t is deemed wisest
not TO take the chances on the loss of a
Republican Senator.

JACKSON AVENUE TROLLEY
David Young Says the Pro-
ject May Go Through
Yet.

Contrary to expectations, the commits
tee recently appointed by the Greenville
property ownrs, to wait on the Traction
Company, and find out what the Com
pany would do in regard to the jackson
avenue trolley, waited on Manager David
Young yesterday afternoon. The major
ity of the property owners throughout
that section were led to believe that the
matter relating to the opening of Jackson
avenue and the proposed trolley road,
would be dropped. and that the matter
would never be brought up again by the
committee. Those who were formerly
interested in the matter will no doubt be
surprised when they learn that the COM
mittee called on MIR! Young yesterday.
Mr.. Young that they had undsnE 81.
that the jackson avenue projecrsef < bee-~
dropped by the Traction Company. Mr.
Young told the committee that the COM
pany had been unable to do anything in
relation to that matter because the me-
Street Railway Company and the Con.
solidated Traction Company had not
been closed yet 1t will be remembered
that the trolley lines were leased to the
former company about two months ago.
Mr.. Young explained that the negotias
Is, and he thought by that time the COM
pany would be in position to give q
definite answer. He told the members OF
the committee that he was personally IN
favor of it, and he thought that 1t would
come out alright in time. Mr.. Young as
sured them that he would do his best to
push the matter.
The committee thanked Mr.. Young and
went away satisfied with the interview,
This news will no doubt bury up the
of the opinion that the matter had fallen
