Sudden Death.

John P. Hammered died very sud-
denly of heart disease early Saturday
morning at his home in St, Cloud
Mr.. Hammered was one of the early
pioneers of this county. He came to
Stearns county with his parents from
Belgium when but about fifteen years
of age, and has ever since resided
here. He was we'll known and liked
and had hosts of friends everywhere.
He was sheriff of this county for a
number of years and in 1857 was may
or of St. Cloud. He was very active
man and had much to do with the
shaping and development OF this
county. His long years in the farm
machine business brought him in con-
tact with nearly everyone in the
county. ~ ~ .~@ -
He was a frequent visitor to Sank
Centre, and was always a welcomed
guest.
The funeral was held on Monday and
was largely attended. =
The district court was adjourned out
of respect to the deceased, who as
sheriff for number of years was an
officer of the court. '

Short Weight Scheme Unearthed by
Resignation Of a Broker.
New Orleans, April 20.-A cotton
fraud involving $1,000 OF $4,000 was
unearthed today with the receipt at
New Orleans cotton exchange Of the
resignation of j. II. Smith. OF the Bir.
mingham cotton firm Of Smith, Cough
ain, Smith & Co.
simultaneously with the resigna-
ton was filed a complaint OF irregu-
lar dealing against the Birmingham
house by Knoop. Ferichs & Co, Of
Savannah, Ga, branch OF the New
Orleans house.
If the contention is sustained the
resignation of Smith will not be ac-
cepted. but he will be expelled from
the cotton exchange.
The Savannah members of the New
Orleans firm allege that the Birming-
ham house shipped them 230 bales of
cotton and drew on them for 100,00
pounds. On arrival OF the cotton II
was weighed and found to weigh only
10000 pounds. The bales were Of nor
NAL size, but contained half of the
usual amount Excitement over the
investigation runs doubly high be
cause it follows so closely after the
Newman-Hyman case. Brokers feel
that the integrity o: the cotton trade
is involved.

Denver, Sept. S.-The Democratic

succeed Justice John Campbell, whose
term expires the coming year. His
principal opponent was John |. Null
lins of the Denver District Court The
contest was close and spirited.
The following platform was adopted:
THE Democracy of Colorado, in con-
vention assembled, reaffirms its allie
glance to the principles enunciated by
the last national Democratic conven-
ton. held in Kansas City.
'.The Democratic party is party of
law and order. 1t believes in the SUI
premasy of the law. and in its strict
and impartial enforcement, that the
rights of all be equally respected and
that justice be meted out alike to all
offeAders, whether they be individuals
or corporations. the friendIess poor
man or the financial magnate. There
should be no compromise with lawless-
ness. come from what source it may.
Upon this depends the good order and
well being of society, the safety of our
homes, the security of person and prop
erty, business prosperity and the full
enjoyment by the people of the privi
leges guaranteed by federal and state
constitutions.
Entertaining these views. we hold
that the judiciary is the most import
ant of all departments of the govern
ment, and that the office of supreme
judge is the highest within the gift of
the people of the state.
I'VE deplore the existence in sew
eral counties of the state. OF differences
between employees and employers,
bringing about state of affairs which
is demoralizine to business and de-
structive of progress and prosperity.
We urge upon all good citizens to
counsel, as well as practice, modera-
tion and do nothing to add fuel to the
flames of excitement. Occasions such
