.GLYNN GOVERNOR:
SULZER DEPOSED
SULZER PLANNING TO
RUN FOR ASSEMBLY
DepoSed Governor After the
Progressive Nomination in
9th District Here.

William Sulzer. removed from the
Office of Governor Is planning to pre-
sent himself as a candidate before the
people at the coming election. hoping
to secure vindication. He is seeking
to obtain the Progressive nomination
for the Assembly In the 9th District
in this city. 1t was suggested to him
that he run on the Progressive ticket
for Congress in the 2Oth District, but
he decided that the chances of election
in the 9th Assembly District were much
better.
Max Steindler, the Progressive leader
of the 9th, returned from a conference
with Sulzer last night in time to at
tend a meeting OF the designating COM
mittee. The committee had been called
to name Harry Kopp. the Republican
candidate for the Assembly, in place of
Otto Lorence the Progressive candi-
date, who was withdrawn on Wednes-
day. This was in pursuance of an
agreement with the Republicans to
bring about fusion on the Assembly and
Aldermanic candidates.
Steindler announced that the agree
ment would be broken and that Sulzer
would be nominated. Francis w. Bird,
the Progressive county leader, and sew
eral Of his lieutenants, having got an
inkling of what was on foot, rushed to
the headquarters in the 9th District in
a taxicab and tried TO call off the sui
ger proposition.
Steindler was defiant, but finally
agreed to adjourn the designating COM
mittee until 1870 O'Clock tonight. A
fine row will be on in the mean time.
If the Progressives repudiate their
agreement TO name the Republican can
didates in the district 1t is probable
that the Republicans will not carry ont
| their part of the agreement in other
districts. 1t will cause a serious split
in the fusion ranks

and announced the result Of the vote
which sent out of Office the man who
less than a year ago was sworn in as
Governor and Immediately undertook
to be as we'll the leader of his political

The faces of tie men around the
circles Of desks who had decided his

am glad II is all over. l am tired
of being illuminated, tired OF being

The court ruled in everything against
mo and ruled out everything in my
favor. The we'll settled rules Of evil
dence were thrown to tho winds. A
horse thief in frontier days would have
received a squarer deal.
Mr.. Murphy controlled the Assembly
and "ordered" tho impeachment. Hs
controlled most of the members Of the
court and dictated its procedure and
wrote the judgment. He was the Judge
and the Jury, the prosecutor and the
bailiH.
Tho meetings Of the court were in
secret and behind closed doors. II was
a star chamber proceeding, whore the
enemies Of the state could work for my
conviction undiscovered.
They called il the High Court Of I'm.
psachnnent, but history will call Il
"Murphy's High Court Of Infamy." Tho
trial was a human shambles; a libel on
law; a fragrant abuse Of constitutional
rights; a disgrace to our civilization;
and the verdict overturned the safe.
guards Of liberty and tho preeedents Of
three centuries.
The judgment will not stand the test
Of time. The future historian will do
me justice and posterity will reverse

A Farewell Party.

Thursday evening, February goth, a
jolly crowd of neighbors and friends
gave Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Hecht fare
we'll party. At o'clock the first team
drove into the yard and soon many
more arrived, filling the yard full of
teams. Mr.. and Mrs. Hecht greeted
each one cordially and soon the joyful
laughter of little children echoed and
re-echoed through the house, while the
older guests were having q most merry
time pla, wing games, etc. At 1880,
supper was served which was most de-
licious and plentiful.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hecht were presented
with a dozen silver knives and forks,
one dozen silver teaspoons, and 4 silver
sugar shell.
The evening passed most pleasantly: !:
everyone enjoyed themselves immense
ly. As the guests departed, they bade
the most and hostess and family fare
well, and wished them good luck and
God-speed in their new home.

DR.. Button BUYS Fine Horse.

DR.. P. G. Button has purchased from
Ed K. Hovden, of Decorah. Iowa, the
trotting bred stallion, Jay Axtellion
47095, one of the best standard bred
and registered stations in the state.
Jay Axtellion has record Of 2:261 on
q haif mile track in Z winning race and
. three-year-old trial record Of 2:l8.
Jay Axtellion was sired by J. ]. Audu-
bon. 2:l93, the sire OF Audubon Boy,
1881. the champion PAGER Of the world
without windshield. That Jay AK
tellion will also prove sire of speed is
shown by the following item from the
last weeks Decorah Republican:
Last week John Nefst ad sold to G..
F. Baker bis eighteen months old Jay
Axtellion colt for $l6O. BY horsemen,
this is considered one of the most
promising youngsters ever bred in De-
corah. 1t has been driven to q cat
only few weeks but it shows speed
that betokens racing proclivities of
excellent character.
Jay Axtellion is probably the first of
line of trotting bred horses to be
brought to Cresco as the result of
building the new race track by our
horsemen.
