them
Now. as to Mr.. lockers questions:
First-Were you attorney for Mr.. Huehner?
answer AZ was not. Mr.. j. F. Fitzpatrick.
second-Why did you transfer his property to
yourself you was It for any other reason than
neTer d ID transfer was sO ing to %
to myself. The property that was in Huehn-
ers name was sold by the sheriff at a
tanned against Mr.. Huehner for money OBJ
tanned by him from a close friend Of my
FAMILY in Berlin. Germany, and purchased
this property for my friend and client at
said sale. The inference that l was attorney
for Mr. Huehner and that l induced him to
give me power of attorney and place the
property in my hands is an unqualified lie
and bare-faeed falsehood. is the inferential
statement that l placed mortgage upon
Mr.. Huehner's property during his absence.
Mr.. Huehner and l had no dealings with
each other until ] demanded payment of
him of $1,000 borrowed by him of my friend,
August Tfetze, and when he refused to pay
this amount, I brought an action against
him. Mr.. Huehner had purchased at least
part of his property with this money so
borrowed and either assumed mortgages or
mortgaged the purchased property himself,
all OF which can be amply verified by re-
ferring to District Court File No. 33281 in
the office of the clerk Of courts.
There was nothing secret or surreptitious
about any of these transactions, and l have
Mr.. Huehner's letters and afldavits open for
any ones inspection, to verify these state
ments. Any one who desires all the
correspondence between myself and my client.
1t is true that l endeavored to save this same
property for my friend subsequent to the
sale, under execution. and for that purpose
even advanced out of my own pocket some
$3.50 for taxes and interest on mortgages but
finally under the subsequent shrinkage in
values of real estate In this city, my client
and 1 did not desire to hold the property and
assume the mortgage. My client thus lost
81 600 through his transactions with Mr..
Huehner / lost $3.50 in cash and my fees,
because my client has not been and is not
now able to repay me. This seems to me is
all l can say in this matter. If there was any
wrong done by me. l should like to have 1t
pointed out to me. I'm not conscious of it.
I certainly shall be glad to furnish The
G o e, or any one else, with any additional
Information with reference to this or any
other matters which may be brought against
me in this campaign, and trust, in the sense
Of justice of my fellow citizens who will
not wish to have aspersions cast upon
candidate unless justified and who desire to
see that justice is DONE Respectfully.

Judge wiIIrich Makes a Statement
Regarding the ToOker Charges.
To The St. Paul Globe:
Ordinarily 1t Is not expected Of candidate
for Office to answer and refute every charge
that is given publicity by an opposition
journal during the campaign.
I will, however, depart from this custom
this time and answer the charges made
against me by c. A. Tooker, who claims to
be a Republican, which charges, if true
should disqualify me from ever sitting on
the district bench. The position for which
l have been nonfnateds Is Of such dignity and
power that no one has right to aspire to
it upon whose character there can rest the
imputation of dishonesty and unfair dealing
and my friends as we'll as my opponents are
in my opinion entitled to know the facts In
connection with the charges brought against
me by Mr. Tooker, whose name l cannot
find in the st! Paul directory and whose
whereabouts ] cannot ascertain, but who at
least has the courage to sign his name TO
a statement which heE claims to have from
another who IS in California and beyond
the reach of the law of this state Mr..
Tooker claims to haveam made an Investigation
of Carl Huehner's standing in this community
and SAYS that it was good, and finally init
mates that the public records can be examined
for the purpose Of ascertaining the truth
of Mr. Huehner's charges.
If Mr. Tooker had taken the trouble to
examine the public records and files it would
have been unnecessary for him to have ex-
amined into Mr.. Huehner's standing for
those records would have soon convinced him
that Mr.. Huehner's statements are absolutely

Tell Farmers They VIII Cut Oh APP
proprfatiOns for Drainage.
To The St. Paul Globe:
I take the liberty to give you pointer as
to the TACTICS adopted by the Republicans IN
this upper country. Every republican
speaker is threatening the voters that If they
elect any other than Republicans to congress
or the state legislature they. the Repub-
ncans who expect to be in the majority In
congress and the legislature. Will see to 1t
that all districts which elect Popul1sts or
free silver Democrats are denied any appro-
priations for drainage or other local Improve
ments. That the people who elect silver
men will have to pay their share Of the taxes,
and that the Republicans will appropriate
all public money for local improvements,
etc., to Republican districts. We never heard
of such an outrage threatened against free
people Last campaign they scared the far
mers into voting the Republican ticket under
threats of foreclosing their mortgages and
taking their homes from them. Now, any
district that doesn't vote the Republican
ticket Is to be punished, they say, by Re-
publtcans elected elsewhere in the state and
nation.
We. the people in the north end of the
state want to ask the farmers and working
men Of Southern Minnesota and the great
cities If they are going to vote for Repub-
lican candidates for congress and the legts-
lature who will, after being elected under
take to punish a free people and deny them
their rights under the law simply because,
freemen, they dare exercise their rights
American citizens by selecting at the polls
men of thir choice to represent them. Such
a resort to threats as the Republican speakers
are INDUCING in ought to be enough to con-
denim the party making them to hopeless and
eternal defeat Will the voters of the state
uphold such party? If they do, then indeed
elections are farce and we are no longer
free people. "A. x. Holston..

Ep;sconal;ans and Divorce.

The convocation of the Protestant
Episcopal church, recently in session
at Washington, D. c., started out to
modify and liberalize it's canons re-
specting the re-marriage of men and
women who have been granted DEGREES
of divorce where the complaint against
the defendant was adultery. In the
first place, the committee on revision
of canons began by reporting a provi-
sion that mo minister Of this church
shall solemnize the marriage Of either
party to divorce during the lifetime
of the other party This was met by
a substitute offered by Bishop Henry
C. Potter, of New York, permitting the
re-marriage Of the innocent party. Aft
er q debate lasting four days, the Pot
ter substitute was adopted by a vote
of 80 to 81. On Monday last, however,
on a reconsideration vote, the decision
was arrived at that no action be taken
looking to the modification of the
canons on the subject, and further ac-
ton on the matter has been deferred
until the next convocation three years
hence.

Forty-me Years Ago.

Forty-1ve years ago ST. Paul was q spot
IN wilderness, peopled by q few hardy
pioneers who four years later organized the
state OF Minnesota. With a few hundred in
habitants it was the principal trading post
west of Chicago, and was looked upon by
Eastern people as the jumping off place. 1t
soon became known the city among the
nils, and was characterized by all the en-
terprise and push Of a Western town The
mississippi was a great highway of COM
MERGE between St. Louis, New Orleans and
the North, and the roar of the river packet
was nightly heard the Father of Waters
Galena, ILL.,, was the nearest trading post
and In the absence of either railways or tel
egraph, St Paul was practically shut off from
the busy world except as the visits of the
river boats brought letters and newspapers
from the East and South.
In those days ST. Paul was not lacking in
professional talent. There were almost as
many lawyers and doctors, comparatively, as
now. Among those prominent in the legal
profession in 1853 were R. r. Nelson, Joseph
Wakefield, F. H. Masterman, w. H. WEIGH,
Z. l.. WtHes, Wilkin & Van Etten, NJ E.

HThe Truce of the Bear"

Considerable discussion has been go
ing on in the press Of the country
during the past fortnight in the way
of criticism of Rudyard Kipling's lat
est poem, entitled 1.-THE Truce Of the
Bear" 1t is astonishing to what ex-
tent certain writer's can work them
selves up into a fever Of discord over
a string Of verses Of the quality which
Mr.. Kipling has recently turned out.
The Globe prints the poem in this
issue with proper credit to the publ
cation Of the Harpers in which 1T
originally appeared.
AS a contribution to literature, the
poem is in keeping with the best of
this young authors productions. The
genius Of Kipling consists Of his power
to analyze character. He possesses an
instinct superlattve in its degree in
this direction; and associated with
this element of strength in COM
position is his admirable COM
mand Of the English Ian
guage. There is something in this
poem that cannot fail to remind the
intelligent reader of Poe and the dem
onstration of his analytic power in
many Of his prose and poetical produc-
tons.
That which seems most to bother
the critics of Kipling's 1.-THE Truce Of
the Bear" is the easily applied allie
gorical connection with the recent call
by the car Of Russia for q peace con-
ference Whether Mr.. Kipling wrote
this poem as a sequence to the an
nouncement by the car Of his desire
for disarmament or whether it was an
inspiration based upon some incident
and written simply as a contribution
to literature can only be determined
by announcement on the part Of the
author himself. There is, 1t must be
admitted, singular aptness in the al
lusions in the poem, as well as a re-
markaible opportuneness in the date of
it's appearance. Mr.. Kipling is credit
ed with being an ardent hater Of Rus
STA, as we'll as an Englishman who,
from a long residence in India, absorb
ed the feeling of apprehension which
her majestys subjects in that realm
have nursed, that some day the Rus
sian bear would descend upon the
Asiatic empire Of Great Britain with a
view to important conquest
But Wnetner MT. h1pllng wrote his
later poem with a purpose that it
should be read as a warning to his
countrymen and their government
against accepting, as serious, any
pledge looking to peace that might be
made upon the advances of the car,
or whether it was written as many
another important poem has been
written the meaning of WHICH has fol-
lowed currents beyond the expectations
or purposes of the author, it is evil
dent that the appearance of The
Truce Of the Bear is singularly timely,
and it's acceptation is a mighty tribute
to the power which the genius of the
poet seems destined to exert The
beauty and sublimity of thought which
were found to exist in 1.-THE Recession
al" whether it was an accidental eff
fusion or written with the purpose of
a call to halt to his countrymen, GER
tainly placed Mr.. Kipling upon a high
er plane as a versifer than he had
occupied previous to the delivery of
that powerful utterance.
