dayton Review.]
A very few of our contemporaries are
apparently frightened over supposed
antipathy between the candidacy Of
Hon. "A. b. Cummins for governor and
the s,enatorsalip of j. p. Dolliver. There
need be no fear upon that score. What.
ever factional differences we may have
or against Mr.. Cummins candidacy, no
can question his honor and his In.
tegIity. He has always been open hand
ed in his campaigns. Now he has given
his word that he will not oppose either
Senator Dolliver or Senator Allison for
their seats. He will be content to aspire
to the senate when death shall take out
venerable Senator Allison from the.
scene Of his usefulness. Az between
Mr.. Cummins and Mr.. Dolliver# we
would be unhesitatingly for Mr.. Dolli-
yer. But we have faith enough in the
word of Mr. Cummins to believe that
when he says he will not oppose either
of the present senators he will stick to-
what he says. We do not believe that
the election of Mr. Cummins as cover
nor will in any way interfere with Mr..
Delivers seat. MIR. Cummins is not a
demagogue; hislcampaigns have always
been waged openly, and no promise he
has ever made has ever been violated.
The coming state convention will find a
large part of the Tenth district sup
porting Mr.. Cummins In his kcandldacy
for governor. And no one doubts that
the Tenth district is Dolliver district.
JUDGE HUBBARD AT CLINTON.
IClinton Herald.l
Judge N. NJ. Hubbard, the well-knowr
railway lawyer of Cedar aRpids, vas in
Clinton yesterday, and having several
hours at his disposal went out to see
the city. The judge is something of a
walker, and as II is just about as far
from the Revere House to the north end
of the city az 1t is from his office In Ce-
OAR Rapids to his goat farm, the Judge
eetsout to walk. He admired the we'll

forty-two years this spring since he has
been there. and he wanted to see how 1T
looked. The judge wore a Prince Albert
coat. all 'buttoned up; high silk hat
serious countenance, and a slight
etoop of the shoulders. Thus equipped,
he naturally attracted attention.
Who Is that?" was asked by people
on the street. But nobody seemed to
know. The judge passed down Main
street, toward the river. He stopped in
front Of Mulligan's, took look up and
down the street acted as tho he would
try the door, and then walked on. He
did the same thing when he passed the
next place where liquid refreshments
once upon time were sold-stopped
and repeated his observations.
"A minister, gasped citizen.

Yes, 1 know him, ventured one of
the crowd. II heard him preach down

With the calling of the visitor thus
determined, the word went up and
down the street. One fellow mounted
MS wheel and rushed ahead to see If

warn them that a minister was coming.
but they were all closed.
The Judge never looked back, but kept
on his way to the river. There he stop
ped and looked at the high bridge and
for half hour seemed lost In thought.
Then he turned down a side street. Went
to the old $55, 600 hotel that now stands
empty. and he looked that over.
The crowd kept at respectful dis
lance and naturally wondered what
there was in its broken windows and
gray walls to attract attention

general conclusion.
The Judge walked back to the hotel
and, meeting a Herald reporter, re-
marked that he had been TO the old
town OF Lyons. He said he stood upon

Fulton and contemplated what a set of

said II was just forty-two years since
he had been in that section Of the coun-
try.
