Official paper of the county of Brown.

bear upon Mr.. Lind to secure from him
promise that Sidney NJ. Owen shall be
made dairy commissioner. While Mr..
Owen is not known to he pushing his
own candidacy in very active fashion, it
is, nevertheless, a fact that his friends
are dong a great deal of work for HIM,
and that several of them have already
urged the propriety of such an appoint
ment upon Mr.. lind. Nh. Owen is one
of the war horses of the "reform" forces,
and is undoubtedly as much entitled to
consideration at the hands of the new
administration as any living man, and it
would not he surprising if be landed
something very good. Minneapolis also
has another candidate for dairy commis-
sioner in the person of P. P. Swenson,
who engineered the recent excursion to
New Ulm. Mr.. .Swenson, however,
would probably be satisfied with any old
place with fair salary attached.-Min-
neapolls Tribune.
Gov. Clough has appointed Nathan
Kingsley, one of the members of the rail-
road and warehouse commission as judge
of the district court in the Albert Lea
district to succeed the late Judge Why
took. To succeed Kingsley on the CON-
mission the governor has appointed Ira
B. Mills. Mills is at present member
of the commission, bit his term would
have expired with tho inauguration of
Lind. By the recent action of the Gov
ernor he holds Office for another year.
Slaln accepted the proposition of the
Paris peace commission Monday after
noon. We give her twenty millions of
dollars and get Cuba, Porto Rico and
all the Philippines, together with a
whole lot of savages that we will have
all sorts of trouble in handling. But
then, we got what we went after and
can therefore afford to hurrah.
If Spain gets $40, 100000 in cash from
the United States, she will probably go
and blow it in 2q pew navy.-Minne-
apolis Tribune,
And we will spend as much and more to
be prepared to blow that new navy out
OF the water as soon as occasion and
Spanish impudence demands,
While speaking at Long Prairie dur
ing the campaign, J. Adam Bede re-
marked that the republican candidates
would all win out unless it was the
county superintendent Of schools, who,
if he didn't defeat his lady opponent,
would at least give her a tight squeeze.
When the peace commission gets
through with the Spanlards at Paris, it
will have to transfer its base of diplo-
matte operations to Manila to deal with
Aguinaldo. The latter gentleman ap-
pears to be as anxious to hold onto his
possessions as was Sagasta.
Queen Victoria is reported as having
said recently: 81 am one of those who
think the loss of faithful servant the
loss of friend" Old Vic is about
right. The only trouble is that faithful
servants and faithful friends are equally
scarce articles.
A week and decaying nation like
Spain has no business with colonies
Minneapolis Tribune.
Neither has the strong and liberty
loving United States, as she will find
some day to he1 sorrow.
Gov. Clough says the railroad COM
mission will not stand as fllbusterer
in the way of any reforms contemplated
in the way of grain inspection and trans
portatlon rates by the new administra-
ton. That's sensible.
Golden opportunities fly low, but they
lily swift. Some OF the WOuld-be Office.
holders must have thought of this,judg-
ing from their haste to make for New
Ulm SO shortly after the election.
The world Is full of people who want
to do good, but they are in no hurry to
commence. That was the great trouble
with the republican administrators OF
public affairs i'll this state. ~

Watonwan counties.
