JUDGE BUCK IS DEAD.
Continued from Page One.l

Blue Earth county, he opened law
office at South Bend, then n flourish
ing and promising village at the south
ern angle of the great bend of the Min
nesota river, four miles west of Man
kato. In 1865 ne removed to Mankato,
where he has since resided Judge
Buck has been the man pre- eminent
whom the people of Mankato and Blue
Earth county have ever delighted to
honor. They have placed him in pub
lie positions frequently, and he has al
ways been their faithful servant. Yet
he has never been an office seeker or a
place hunter, and his preferments have
always, come to him unsought. In 1865
he was elected to the legislature and in
the session of 1866, while member of
the house of representatives, he secured
the enactment of the law locating the
state normal school at Mankato. He
had the principal charge of the construc-
tion of the buildings of this school, of
which he is considered virtually the
founder. For five years he was a mem
Der of the state normal school board,
and was prominent in the location of
and the selection of sites for the schools
at Winona and st. Cloud, as well as at
Mankato. He was for four years coun-
ty attorney of Blue Earth county. In
1878 he was elected to the state senate
for the full terms of four years. He
was the author of that most beneficient
measure, the insolvent law enacted by
the legislature of 1881, and while sena-
tor was member of the court of inn

1889 he was his party's candidate for
secretary of state; in 1888 he was its
candidate for lieutenant governor, but
on each occasion was DEBATED with his
ticket. He was a delegate to the ma
tional democratic convention at st.
Louis, in 1876, which nominated Tilden
and Hendricks. In 1892 ne was nomi-
mated by the democratic and peoples
parties, for judge of the supreme court,
and was elected by a large majority.
His official term was to commence in
january, 1894, and TO expire in Janu-
airy, 1900; but in October, 1898, he was
appointed member of the court to fill
the vacancy occasioned by the resigna-
ton of Judge ID. A. Dickinson. He
served on the supreme bench from De-
tober, 1898, until November, 1899, when
he resigned. During his long official
career in the service of the people and
state, Judge Buck has never accepted
or used a pass on any railroad or trans
portation line. OF his career on the
bench, a prominent attorney we'll and
truthfully says:
mo man of greater purity of charac-
ter, none of more integrity, none of a
higher sense and love of Justice, none
with q more solemn realization of equal
equality of all men before the law,
ever sat upon the bench or our supreme
court. If it be the end of all law and
all courts to decree justice, Judge Buck
discharges his duties with the attributes
of great jurist. If justice be done it
matters little by what display of cru
dition it is accomplished. Judge Bucks
greatest worth to the people was his
ability to do equal and exact justice to
all mem and to 60 straight to the point.
Judge Buck is not a member of any
religious denomination, and does not
air his pretensions to morality or dc

Happy DAYS on the Farm.

ventriloquist who was in the depot
waiting for the train made the boy be-
lieve there was kitten in the mail
sack.
The pitiful mewing the boy thought
he heard coming from the sack stirred
his neart deeply, and he loudly protested
against such an inhuman act as to shut
a kitten up like that. He called up the
postoffice over the telephone to make
complaint, but they could not help him.
When he gave the mail sack to the
agent on the train he warned him that
there was kitten in it, and asked the
agent to open the sack, take out the
kitten and give it to him to carry back
up town again. The agent merely gaz-
ed at him in wonder and Johnny got no
comfort there.
