If Gov. Lind's Withdrawals was
only intended to scare his Minneapolis
party associates into submission, it
was not thoroughly effective. Quite a
number of the leading Democrats of
that city as we'll as of St. Paul, and Of
other localities, are quite willing to
take him at his word, and profess to
believe that they can find another
Leader, who will poll as heavy a vote as
Lind can. While we are disposed to
believe that.Lind's ambition lies in the
direction of the United States senate,
and that he will not be candidate for
Fgovernor, as long as there is posi-
bility of an opening toward the senate,
the admission must be made that he is
a good many thousand votes stronger
than any Democrat who can be named.
And belt distinctly Il understood the
vote which Lind can get that no other
Democrat can get, is not the Demo
cratic vote. = S5s

BRIGHAM ROBERTS, the Utah poly
gamist, presented to the clerk Of the
house of representatives the same evi.
dence of election that was presented
by every congressman who took his
seat in this session. In deciding to re-
ject, him, as a purely arbitrary tight
under. the constitution, congress has
set a dangerous precedent that may
come home to roost, in the future.
Congress has a right. to GUST any mem
ber of that body, but we do not see
what legal right it could have had to
refuse him admission. He was elected
by the people, not by congress, and the
only legal way to dispose of the matter
was to admit him as member upon
the face of his certificate of election
and then expel him.
