reducing the American people to condi-5
don OF slavery. The first measure II Is
to rccomncnd Is an amendment to the
Constitution Of the United States glVs1g
the Congress of the United states fuii
powcr and authority to deal with trusts
In sucl, way as 1t thinks advisable. and
the second Is to be an act of Congress
Amending the present antitrust law SO as.
to require all trust made goods. shipped
pu. Of the State where they are made, to
he branded as trust made goods, and re-
curing all corporations having a. capital
of over 100000. or doing an annual bus
mess of more than 100000, to file a re-
port OF their affairs with the Secretary
of State.
In all our experience of public affairs
we don't think we have ever met with
such complete instance Of the noun
falns laboring and bringing forth ridi-
culous little mouse. There is about as
people to adopt the proposed amendment
to the Constitution of the United States
as there is to argue water into running
up hill Our Federal Union is based upon
the idea that each locality constituting
State Shall provide AN the legislation
which that locality has, so that the local
laws of the people shall respond to the
impulses and desires of the people, while
the Congress of the United States shall
make those laws In respect to matters of
general concern in which all in every part
of the Union are equally interested. This
is the raGson d'etre of our Union. But
this proposed amendment 10 our Censt-
tuition would put all legislation OF all
kinds under the control of Congress, and
would ob,iterate our State lines and make
people. The American people will never
tolerate that suggestion
AS to the act of Congress proposed, it
is simply silly. OF what moment would
it be to mark goods as being made by
trust? People who want an article care
nothing about who makes it If it fills the
measure Of their desires. Some years
back there was a clamor in England
against articles manufactured In Ger
many, and an act of Parliament Was
passed requiring all articles imported
from Germany to be stamped rs German
goods and the only effect of it was to
immensely increase the sale of German
goods, as the people liked them and were
thereby enabled to pick them out.
The clamor about trusts has been going
on Cor several years now, but who has
been hurt by them? Everything they are
connected with has fallen in price and
relied on as the articles represented.
The trust is the outcome of the close
competition steam and electricity have
made possible, and the alternative to the
give up steam and electricity. That is
the whole case.
But we are not surprised at the action
of the Republicans. We have rs1coted!y
SAID that the Republicans would try to
ort-Herod the Democrats in their de-
nunciation of trusts, but we did not know
how they would manage to take such d
position and yet stand in with the cor
not VI, to political tricks. The thing is
plain enough now. The Republicans have
hit upon trick that is as wise as a ser
pent and as harmless as a dove. They

BUCKLEY CASE DECIDED.

Probate Judge Hughes rendered his
decision Friday in the matter of the
estate of Edmund P. Buckley, who
died at Eagle Lake last winter. Mr.
Buckley owned about twenty acres of
land on which he lived at the time of
his death His widow asks that a
small portion Of it be set apart to
her as homestead. while the children
claimed that the whole tract should be
so set apart, and it was on this PROPOSE
tion that the dispute in court arose
One of the children objected to the
granting of the petition on the grounds
that no less than the whole tract could
be set apart. w. R. Geddes appeared
for the children and w. A. Funk for
the widow. Judge Hughes holds that
the contention of the children is cor.
rect, and made an order denying the
petition.

NEW LAW FIRM.
Judge Severance and 6. N. Andrews
Form Partnership.

Judge Severance and G. N. Andrews
have formed law partnership, under
the name of Severance & Andrews and
have their rooms in the Model block
heretofore occupied by Mr.. Andrews.
This will prove very strong combi-
nation. Judge Severance's ability is
too we'll known to need mention. He
was one of the leading attorneys of the
state for many years before he was ele-
waited to the bench eighteen years ago,
and has well trained and very acute
legal mind AS an advocate of the bar
he has no superior in the state. Mr..
Andrews lately moved to the city from
Wells and is an able attorney and an
eloquent speaker. He will prove a
valuable acquisition to the bars of the
city and county. The many friends of
both gentlemen will wish the new firm
of Severance & Andrews every success.

THE CITY'S POPULATION.
Federal Census to be Taken the Present
Year.

The new city and county directory,
just issued by R. L. Polk & Co., con,
tains 6,037 names in the portion of the
book devoted to Mankato. Using the
usual D as multiple, a population of
$1,000 is indicated for Mankato. 1t is
doubtful whether the federal census,
which is to be taken this year. will
show that much actual population. A
conservative guess on the official figures
would make it between $4,000 and
$4,000.
In the county portion of the book
there are 7,103 names, but as only the
heads of families are included in tn 8
list, 81 is the accepted multiple, which
represents a population of % OS5 for
Blue Earth county outside of Mankato,
or population for the entire county of
SO, 175, The directory is replete with
other information, which seems to be
reliable.

THE STUART HEARING.
Many of the Creditors Oppose His Dis
charge From Bankruptcy.

The application of Robert Stuart, of
Window, for discharge from bank
ruptcy was heard before Referee Flittie
last Saturday. Attorney Hubechek, of
Minneapolis, appeared for number of
the creditors and S. B. Wilson for
eighteen others, and both opposed the
discharge. Attorney D. A Stuart, of
Window, appeared for Robert Stuart.
Those who oppose the discharge pre-
sent nineteen specifications upon which
they ask that the application be not
granted. The first is the allegation
that Mr.. Stuart knowingly and fraudu-
lently concealed while a bankrupt,
from his trustee, goods, wares and
merchandise of the value of 81, 1875. OF,
as shown by the examination and dis
closure of the bankrupt, made at the
first meeting of creditors. The second
is that he concealed wares and mer.
chandise shipped to E. S Griffith, at
Minneapolis, of the value of $2,O57. SO.
The third is that he knowingly and
fraudulently concealed $1,400 in
money. The fourth charges that he
concealed, falsifed and mutilated the
cash book and ledger. Then followed
a number of specifications of alleged
fraudulent entries, etc.
When evidence was about to be taken
this forenoon, point arose as to its ad
instability and al adjournment was
taken until this afternoon. Mr.. Stuart
of course denies the allegations of the
creditors who oppose his application
for discharge from bankruptcy.

long as the sheriff was forcing him to
take it. He drained the cup to the last
drop and seemed 10 regret that there

he would never forgive him for forcing
food upon him, and that Mankato and
the state of Minnesota would soon have
cause to regret the treatment which he
