Clifton Holden, the Redwood Falls murderer, was refused a new trial by the supreme court on "Wednesday, and another strand in the slender cord which holds him to life has been snapped. On ly one feeble strand remains,—commu tation by the governor. That is highly improbable, as there is nothing in the case that can be pleaded in extenuation of his crime and the chances are that Holden will have to swing. It will be remembered that he was recently con victed at Redwood Falls of murder in the first degree. He was charged with shooting his cousin, for the sake of rob bing him of a small sum of money— less than $100, and the evidence showed that the two were riding from one vil lage to another when the homicide oc curred. During the trial and at the conclusion of the evidence, before the judge had delivered his charge, six of the jurors sent a request to the counsel for the state and the defense that the case be submitted to the jury without aigument, and this was done. The de fendant set up that that this course was irregular, and moved for a new trial upon this and upon alleged errors. The motion was denied and the case was taken to the supreme ecart with the above result. Pending this decision, Judge Webber Las not yet passed sen tence on the case, but will do so at the next term of court. That it will be death is more than likely a3 the crime calls for the severest penalty. The governor is not apt to commute and it looks reasonably certain now that the murder of Frank Dodge was to be avenged. Justice is slow but sure. MARCUS AND JERRY. At last the disagreeable light and mis understanding between Davis and Wash burn has been settled and our Senators have at length succeeded in coming to an amicable agreement over Minneso ta appointments. The stand that has been taken by both is well known to all who have kept watch of the papers. Davis from the first supported Dona hower, of St. Peter, for collector, while Washburn urged Marcus Jajanson, of Kandiyohi county, and other candidates. The senior member was willing to al low Washburn to name his man for marshal in return for the right to ap point Donahower, but for months they could come to no agreement. This week however settles it. Donahower in or der to patch things up has consented to take the marshalship and allow John son the softer snap. This is not the re sult we had looked for, still we are sat isfied in that he got what he did. He was of a right entitled to the other be cause of the support of Senator Davis, but considering how things have been going of late the marshalship is to* be looked upon as lucky haul. It is only to be wondered at that Washburn didn't have a desire to claim that too. He se cured the district attorneyship, worked around until his colleague was forced to give him the collectorship, and on top of all this the wand which will make Buckman surveyor-general seems to sway in his hand. It's really wonder how this man manipulates everything to his own advantage. HOME AND HAPPINESS. The people of this vicinity, who were present at Turner Hall last Wednesday evening, had the good fortune to, listen to one of the best lectures that have been delivered in New Ulm in many months. Prof. Maria L. Sanford, of the State University, was the speaker and al though it was not known that she was to address the Farmers' Institute until late in the day, every seat was filled with attentive listeners. "Home and how to make it happy" was her theme and she talked in a way that was plain and direct, yet pleasant to listen to. To her mind, home did not consist in rich es, now could wealth rob it of its charms. The humble peasant in a low ly cottage with a househould full of cheer was often a far happier man than the lord with his glittering shekels. It was in the heart alone to make home fit to live in, and it was for each and every one to make it so if he desired. Her advice to young men and women was homely and valuable. She told them that ambition was essential to the home of ideal comfort that it was the treasure of their lives, and that they should not fail to fill their beings with hope. She told them too that content ment was a secret key that it was well for every man to hold—not contentment in the sense of living life with reckless ease, but rather in the sense of resting free from borrowed troubles. Misfor tunes and hardships come quick and fast enough of themselves and we should not allow one little gloom to darken to us the whole world. And Mrs. Sanford is right. Added to good health and kindly thoughtfulness, these blessings bring longevity and enjoyment and make home a place that is aught but disagreeable. The househould then becomes a circle, in* which it is -blissful and cheering to hold a place. Pay as you go, it should be—or else go without, rather than put a possible mill-stone around your neck—even if you succeed eventually in gaining the things you wanted through an unde sireable amount of anxiety, care and self-denial, by the renunciation of what would have been more valuable in the interval—peace of mind.—ST. PAUL NEWS. Washburn may be having lots of fun with C. K. Davis and may also be hav ing his own way in the direction of po litical appointments, yet he can rest as sured of one thing that when the day rolls around to name a successor to C. K. Davis, that the name of such succes sor will most emphatically read C. K. Davis and. the vote will significantly point to the eventual demolition of W. D. W's. future political prospects.—St. Peter Herald. It is gratifying to know that these appointments—Marcus Johnson and J. C. Donahower—are satisfactory to both Senators, and that any further friction between them in such matters is not probable. The agreement removes all cause for further babble and gossip about the supposed antagonism of the Senators, and this is obviously better for the dignity of the State of Minneso ta and for the great party which the Senators represent.—Minneapolis Jour nal. 3 Gov. Merriam's dignified silence at the rantings of certain democratic newspapers, and cash hunters, is mak ing him friends all over the state. The fight, if it may be called one, against the governor, is peculiar. The enemies cannot maintain a single charge against him their only ammunition is mud, which they can hurl as only experts can. The governor has stood by the people in every instance, hence the growling in certain quarters.—Heron Lake News. Things have come to such a crisis in our politics, that in selecting our United Stales Senators, it has got to be a case of—no boodle no election. This is the way it was in Minnesota and this is the way it was in Ohio in their last week's election. Men of merit are no longer noticed.—New Ulm Review. The above is only too true. If brains, integrity and Ions and honorable ser vice as a citizen of the state were the standard by which United States sena tors were gauged, Gen. Gordon E. Cole would FILL the senatorial seat now OCCUPIED by W. D. Washburn.—St. Paul Herald. The New Ulm Review entered upon its 13th volume last week, and its editorial department is in charge of F. W. Johnson. The Review is a bright paper and it is a pleasure to read it even though you cannot'always endorse what it says.—Northfield News. It is doubtful if the new society of "Sons of the Revolution" recently or ganized in St. Paul will serve any good purpose, though certainly it seems in ocuous enough to outsiders. There is too much tendency in America to-day to divide the people by iines of caste. This is a republic, and every citizen, native and foreign born alike, is equal before the law. The greatest pride in America today should be as it was in Rome^during the days of the greatest prosperity of the old republic—the pride of being a simple citizen. It would seem that such a title would fill the ambition of a modest man.—NOETH- FIBLD NEWS., VOLUME XIII. NO. 4 N E W ULM, O W N COUNTY, MINN., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 22. 1890.,: W O E NUMBER, :628 TALK OF THE NEWSPAPERS. One thing which seems like a glint of rainbow in Minnesota politics is the fact that Col. J. C. Donahower, has demon strated the possibility of going through a hotly contested candidacy without abusing his rivals or being personally abused by anybody. Other candidates at the same time for the same office have not been so fortunate and one by have dropped out. It is the survival of the fittest.—St. Peter Tribune: It is pleasant to be informed that there is, at last, harmony in the ranks of the Minnesota delegation. It weak ens a State to be divided in its repre sentation at Washington, and the fact that the delegation in the house and Senate are in harmony and working to gether will prove to be of much more interest than the good fortune of the specific individual who may happen to secure the office. Mr. Windom is ap parently forging to the front with his financial policy, and though he is not likely to accept further honors at the hands of the State of Minnesota direct ly, it is quite among the possibilities that he may head the national ticket in 1892.He has certainly, in the first year of his Cabinet duties, made a favorable im pression upon the country and it would be but natural for him to receive the endorsement of a higher call.—St. Paul News. The receipts of the St. Peter postof fice frcm the sale of stamps, etc., amounts to $4,160.98." The New Ulm postoffice realizes $4, 172.46. The Minnesota stock growers propose to establish a registry of their own. They are tired of being obliged to reg ister stock in the*American herd book. The matter was discussed the moraine* before the farmer's institute went into session. C. E. Marvin was warmly ia favor of having a Minnesota registry, which he said would save the farmers a great deal of time, inconvenience and money. It would also have the effect of purifying the breeds. President Pillsbury approved of the idea, and steps will soon be taken to bring about the change.—Ex. The death rate on the earth is calcu lated to be 67 in a minute or 4,020 an hour, 96,480 a day, 35,215,200 a year. The birth rate slightly exceeds this. It is calculated to be 70 per minute, 4,200 an hour, 100,800 a day or 36,792,000 in a year. The estimated increase per annum according to this is therefore only a little more than 1,500,000, and it will be many centuries before our earth gets so crowded that the inhabit ants will jostle each other over the edge into space. The Manthusian's ideas regarding over population need not therefore, detain anyone from mar iage. —Journal of Health. Hon. Ignatius Donnelly was recently interviewed by a Chicago reporter, and here is what he had to say about Gov. Merriam and Minnesota politics: "What of Minnesota politics? Well, next year you will see a red hot guber natorial fight, I expect. The fight will be principally in the Republican cau cus, as the Republican nominee is pret ty sure of election. The fight will be on the re-nomination of Gov. Merriam. He has made an exceptionally good Governor, I think. He is strong with the farmer element. He has cham pioned their side in the question of transportation, the elevator system, aDd other matters dear to the farmers' hearts. They need all the aid he can give them, too. Minnesota is in a curi ous condition. Those two cities—St. Paul and Minneapolis—have grown like wens on a sick manJs neck. The remainder of the State has suftered. The farmers have been held captive by a chain of rings. There have been ele vator rings, wheat rings, dressed beef rings, and transportation rings. The farmer has been the sufferer from them all."
