ILL HEALTH THE CAUSE.
Judge Buck Resigns from the Supreme
Court.

Judge Buck, of this city, has resigned
from his position on the state supreme
court to take effect today. Judge
Bucks term would have expired on
Jan. 1st had he served it out. Judge
Buck gives as his reason for retiring at
this time. that the health of his immed-
late family and also his own health is
poor, which greatly interfered with his
work, and rather than seriously en-.
barass the work of the court he de-
cided to resign, as a majority of the
court retires on the first of January, it
is necessary that all of the cases de-
cided at the present term be out of the
way at that time.
Yesterday Gov. Lind appointed Judge
c. L Brown, of Morris, one of the
newly elected Judges to succeed Judge
Buck, who will enter upon his new
duties at once.
Judge Buck will have the sympathy
of all his friends and neighbors of his
old home in the affiiction that has come
upon him through i'll health of his wife,
and all will hope that with the relief of
the active duties of life that his health
and that of his wife may improve that
they may the better enjoy the years re.
naming for them.
Judge Buck has served nearly his
full term of six years on the supreme
bench, to which he was elected in 1892,
and has been a hard working, con-
scientious judge, and retires full of the
honors of busy life, enjoying the con-
fdence and esteem of his old time
neighbors and friends who will well
come him back among them again.

Diplomatically speaking, the Incl
dent is closed" so far as Mayor Cur
rier's administration is concerned.
The council last night was in mood
for doing business on business lines.
1t waited for and received no instruc-
tions from outsiders as to its duties.
The Pope resolution that was laid
over two weeks ago pending the ex-
PLANTATION of General Pope to the
library board, was put to sleep for
ever. A motion to lay same on the
table was carried unanimously on aye
and nay vote. This action can be in
terpreted in only one way and has but
one meaning, and that is that the
council was entirely dissatisfied
with Mr.. Pope's explanation of the
disposition of the $500 library fund
about which there has been so much
discussion. The council also, and
with equal emphasis, repudiated Mr..
Pope's claim that the interest money
due on this five hundred dollars be-
longed to the library board, by the
adoption of a resolution declaring
that the interest belonged to the city,
demanding that the same be paid to
the treasurer thereof, and be placed
in the current funds of the city ex-
chequer. The council, in finally dis
posing Of this matter, did precisely
what the public expected it would do
In face of all the evidence furnished
by General Pope himself, and it may
consider its action fully endorsed by
the facts as set forth.
In the light of all the circumstances,
1T is certainly too bad that General
Pope could not have risen to the 0cca.
sion in the first instance and saved
himself the humiliating conviction
that has been placed upon him by
public sentiment and council action.
The Free Press, in discussing this uu-
fortunate transaction, has at no time
felt any desire to put Mr.. Pope in
hole That he has put himself there
through his own ill-conceived efforts
to shirk responsibility cannot be de-
MED, and whatever may befall him in
his present official position can be
chargeable wholly to his own indis-
erection and apparent folly. The Free
Press is not one who. while dis ,gree-

WAREHOUSE CASES DECIDED.

The supreme court has rendered a
decision in the Madelia warehouse
cases.
Five cases in one are decided in the
cases of George F. Rice and Henry
Cooling against the directors of the
Madelia Farmers Warehouse Company
in Watonwan county. 1t is held that
whether the grain is kept separate or
commingled, the elevator is bailee and
not consignee and that an action to
recover for conversion may be main,
tanned without proving the guilt speci.
fcally of the stockholders or directors
sued. Syllabus:
Where grain, deposited for storage
with corporation organized under
title 2, chapter "a, of the statutes, en-
gagged as warehousemen in storing
grain for hire, is wrongfully disposed
of by the fraud, unfaithfulness of mem
bers, the owner of the grain suffers 6
loss peculiar to himself which enables
him to maintain an action against such
directors, officers or members under the
third subdivision of section 5000
Statutes 1894.
Held also, that the complaint suffici-
emily connects the defendants with tn,
wrongful conversion, at least in thei,
capacity as members or stockholderl
of the corporation.
Orders affirmed. Mitchell J.

ing with Mr.. Pope in politics, has auy
desire to see him lose his position as
public examiner. It has no revenge
to exc out. It does not believe the
general to be q thief, or anything of
the kind. In common with the peo-
pie generally of Mankato it neverthe-
less does not take any stock in his
effort to put responsibility upon the
late John A. Willard for that which
he himself stands before the people
as self-convicted. With General Pope's
well known shrewdness it seems pass
ing strange that he should wind about
himself web of such inextricable
strands, and it is pity tits true that
he has done so. The entire transac-
tion is without precedent and not
susceptible of defense, palliation or
excuse.
The final action taken by the city
council of Mankato cannot in any
way be distorted into politics or
political persecution, as that body is
composed of five Democrats and one
Republican. MIR. Pope, therefore,
stands convicted by jury of his own
political faith who could have been
looked to with confidence to protect
him had there been any good grounds
or even pretext for such protection.

of the Standard, who in his jealous
ness for anything thatsmells of Demo-
popism, would visit this city, he
would learn more about that $500
library deal than he knows at present
and he would find further that the
people here, regardless Of party, dc
not agree with Gen. Pope in his ex
PLANTATION of the disposition OF the
same.

PROSPERITY IN THE NORTH
WEST.

PROSPERITY IN THE NORTH
WEST.
J. J. Hill in an interview 10 the
New York World, is quoted as follows
regarding the prosperity of the north
west:
"Iknow'every mile Of territory from
the Pacific to Lake Superior and from
Duluth to South DAKOTA; I have spent
most of my life out there, and 1 have
never seen such surprising prosperity
as abounds in the Great Northwest at
present.
"And I believe the prosperity has
come to stay. / look for continuous
reign Of good times for the next
twenty years. Of course 1 am an
optimist. l never yet met man who
amounted to anything who wasn't an
optimist. Hope, nerve, confidence,
all go together to make success. No
man can remain in my employ ton
hour who hasn't those three qualiti-
cations.
"Why, the country banks are seek
ing commercial loans at 4 and per
cent! Money is cheaper in ST. Paul
today than it is in New York.
But there is one stumbling block
to this prosperity, and it is a serious
one. Because Of it we are not getting
the whole full benefit of the good
times. That stumbling-block is the
great lack Of terminal facilities for
handling freight.
sat this season of the year 60 per
cent of the crops ought to be out of
the way. Instead, only So per cent
have been moved.
The reason? Those who don't
know say il is because Of a famine in
freight cars. That's nonsense. There
is no such thing as famine in freight
cars There is surplus of freight
cars. The trouble is they are not
kept moving. Why, the average
freight car is busy Only few hours
out Of the twenty-four. The reason
they are not kept actively engaged is
because Of the lack of terminal facili-
ties. AS result of that condition
