AS TO SENATOR DAVIS.

Zumbrota News: There seems
to be a movement current in some
parts of the state to- attempt a
duplicate of the late Window.
Sabin controversy in the state
legislature next winter. For
some unaccountable reason there
seems to be a manifest desire
among some politicians to def',at
the Hon. C. K. Davis for U. S.
senator from Minnesota. Why
this should be 80 is a UNI.
Mr.. Davis il one Of lest
men in the U. S. senate today-a
credit alike to himself and the
state which he represents. In all
legislation of any Importance, in
ali matters where the nation g well
fare, dignity and respect, both at
home and abroad, has been at
stake, in crises such as the late
national railroad strike and in all
matters where the nations honor
and integrity have been threatene
Minnesota g, senior senator has,
generally in d ia. =.
pressions of p
opinions, taken bold and ourage.
Gus stand which latter has been
fully sanctioned and ratified by the
people and press gene'".y. And
yet there are those who would
have a man, whu has reflected 50
much honor upon our state, who
has shown himself to possess quail
ties of courage, wisdom and fore
thought equsl if not superior, to
that of some of the ablest states
men this nation has had, to be re,
placed by some cross.road, wire
pulling politician: W ate

James Gray, city editor of the

ington for the purpose of supply
ing his paper with the news from
the national capital as he finds it.
In Tuesdays Telegram he says:
THERE WILL BE NO WAR.
NV prediction is that the fear
or the hope or the expectation Of
war, whichever has actuated the
different factions ofthe American
people in the struggle of the last
sixty days, is over, as l SAID in one
of my dispatches, few nights
ago, there would be no war, If
William Mckinley can prevent it,
and he can proven it. -
He has worn out and conquered
his own party and all that now
can precipitate war between Spain
and the United States is a military
or naval blunder on the part of a
commander on one side or the
other %;5.1 .s..j,
Such a blunder is an improb
ability The next few mouths
will not justify. the Mckinley
policy. The next few years will
tell whether he is - be handed

accom- panied the girl here to take

County Attorney Lyon examined the

thereby saved some costs. IA habeas

taken and the result would un-

The record of the justice did not
show that the defendant had waived
the right ut jury trial and where
there Is no jury trial the waving of
the right must be expressly stated.
1t was, therefore. q mis-trial. and
the justice had no Jurisdiction In

ted to have cost 1925, 900. The
water is first pumped from the
river into q stand-pipe at point
IL miles from the city. From
there it Is conveyed to the city
limits in 12-inch pipe and dis
charged into a cemented basin
over an acre in size. Here four
engines are placed for fire and
other emergencies, (though one can

into smaller basin, which is q

distance farther, inside the city
limits, into a stand-pipe l76 feet
high, 80 feet in diameter at the
bottom and 20 at the top. Now
without having ascertained from

titude is, we will venture that If
water was pumped out Of the Neo-
sho and into q stand-pipe or q
basin mile from Bluejacket, the
natural fall Of the country would
bring it to yinita and probably
put it into stand-pipe. But
whether this be SO or not. the ex-
perience OF Parsons has shown
that we are not out of reach Of
water. If, after investigation, it
is found we cannot get a supply
from the ground beneath US, we
can certainly bring it from the Ne
osho or from Grand river as seems
best. Itis possible-yss probable

TO say there is not man in the

will double itself several times,

have waterworks and we shall very
oon find manufacturing and others
industries knocking at our doors
which are now unknown to US.
This is saying nothing Of fire pro-
lection, and when it is considered
that the losses by fire in the
United States during the month of
September reached the enormous
total Of sl4. 600, it is clearly
the part of wisdom for US to avail
