Pick the Man OF the Peop!e.

We hold these truths to be self-evident-
that all men are created equal; that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain in
alienable rights; that among these are life,
liberty and the pursuit Of human happiness
From the Declaration CT independence made
by the original thirteen United States of
America, on July 4, 1l76
Has the editor of the st. Paul Dis
patch ever read these words, 50 pre-
cious in the eyes Of American citizens?
Has he pondered upon the fact that
equality Of American citizenship is the
very Foundation Ct American manhood?
And has an American citizen no right
to condemn a political party with
which he has been affiliated, when 1t
places in nomination candidate so o.
roXious to every idea of Am arfcan free
men as William Henry Eustis?
The tkinly-concealed threat of the
Dispatch, acting in the interest CT Will
lam H. EUstis, to disfranchise the
Swedes Of Minnesota if they dare to
vote against the candidate Of the ca!baI
which temporarily has the Republican
party by the throat, may have great
weight with the sons Of the Norsemen
and it may not. Election day will
determine that.
It is just as we'll for the Dispatch
and it's kind to remember that Mime
sofa, is a part of the Union-that all
men are free and equal within its bor-
ders and that the constitution of the
United States guarantees them absolute
protection in the exercise Of their suff-
rage.
Swedes, Germans, Irish, Bohemians.
American-bOrn may vote for whomso-
ever they please, for Eustts or John
Lind, and there can be no interference
with this glorious American privilege
They will determine to their own salts
faction whether John Lind Is man OF
their own kind, who ought to be gov,
ernor, or whether Eustis the child Of
fortune and the favorite of few cor
porations, shall be selected for that
high office.
If Abraham Lincoln was alive and
was called upon to choose our next gov
ernor, that great champion Of the COM
mon people would not hesitate In his
choice between the candidates. Would
he choose Eustis? We do not for an
instant believe he would We believe
the grand old rail splitter would be
| found on the stump for John Lind.

NEW YORK, Nay 9.-The New York

THEY ARE GROWING WEARY.
Only One Occasional Eombardment and
Now and Then Capture TO Relieve
1IOnOtony OF Havana blockade

KEY WEST, Fla, Nay Cuba is
still locked out by Uncle Sans steel
fence. Two nations are still cycling
each other stealthily, waiting for the
unknown. On one side is an island
full Of hot and chafng Spaniards who
occasionally express their wrath in a
few futile shots toward the enemy,
only to be beaten back like fractions
children; on the other side a weary
lot Of naval men longing to open
their guns and show the bad chill
dren what punishment awaits their
incorrigibili These little angry
Outbursts, such as occurred at Matan-
zas the other day, and at Havana
Yesterday, are all that offer diversion
70 the blockade, except the chase Of
few bold fishing schOOners- The zest
which accompanied the capture Of the
Dig steamers during the first days Of
the war has ceased, now that the
blockade is an established fact The
only ships worth taking are wise
enough to keep shy Of the fleet Petty
prizes are still taken, however, and
three came in yesterday They sur
rendered too easily to make their cap
ture interesting.

commissioners to deposit a portion Of
the cOunty's funds in. a Humboldt
bank. Decker refused on the ground
that no arrangements had been made

granted a writ compelling him to
make the deposit and Decker appealed
to the supreme court.
