GOODHUE COUNTY The first newspaper printed in Minnesota made its appear- ance less than two months after the passage of the act organizing the territory and before the territorial officers arrived. This was the Min- nesota Pioneer of April 28, 1849, and its editor was James Madison Goodhue, a na- tive of New Hampshire, who had just moved his press from Lancaster, Wis., to St. Paul. Goodhue’s vigorous editorials made him many enemies, and one of them, in 1851, led to a personal encounter in which he was twice stabbed and his opponent was shot. Although he recovered from the wounds he died in August, 1852. The following spring the leg- islature named a county in his honor. kA ok ok kA khkhkkhkkkkhkk kA XhkhAhkkhkhkhhkhkhkhkhkkhkhkhk*xwnx i**‘*******************************t KRR KKK KKK KKK KK SERVICE IS ESSENTIAL. In speaking of the congressional situation, the Sauk Centre Herald says in part: The one essential thing that the general public should demand from public officials is service. The great mass of the people have no personal interest in the selection or election of individual men. The only thing in which they are, or should be, in- terested, is accomplishment. Yet, as a general thing, this is the last coxj)— sidered by the average yoter. Vo- ters, as a rule, voice their nomination preference on a basis of personal friendship, to pay off a grudge; be- cause some good fellow solicits their vote, and the prime object of legis- lation, accomplishment, is seldom given a thought. The Sixth district is one of the most important, if not the most im- portant one, in the state. It has complicated questions of the archaic Indian treaties demanding solution. It contains most of the unentered public lands. The international overflowage question demands imme- diate attention, drainage of govern- ment swamp lands and numerous other important matters are await- ing settlement and on their right settlement depends very largely the welfare and prosperity of the terri- tory the district embraces. Such being the case a representa- tive should be chosen who in the highest degree possesses the qualifi- cations for doing things. In Hon. C. B. Buckman the district fortunately possesses such a man. He is a man of affairs, of wide public ac- quaintance and long public experi- ence in both state and national legis- lation. The next congress will be Repub- lican beyond a doubt. Mr. Buck- man’s previous service will give him an"immediate standing and place him in line for important committee posi- tions. His acquaintance with the house leaders, his tireless energy, keen business judgment and remark- able personal tact eminently qualify him for rendering this district valu- able service. The Herald has nothing to say against the other candidates. They are young men, they have not won their spurs, they have no legislative experience, nor achieved any remark- able business success. They are new and untried. They possess mo ac- quaintance with public men. They should serve an apprenticeship before they become master. workmen. They, no matter how great their natural abilities, would perforce spend the greater part of their first term in learning the ropes. They are lfllg a The Toymakers’ Association of Am- erica at Chicago Saturday adopted a resolution to agitate a movement to give toys to the children on_ the Fourth of July instead of firecrack- ers. It might be a good idea, at least we know a lot of ‘kids”. who would lpok favorably toward the idea. Don’t know what father thinks about it, however. Just what is our European situa- tion? What is our Mexican situa- tion? What is our .internal situa- tion? What is the whole situation, anyway? Honestly, we'd like to know. The man behind the gun is cut- ting a big swath in Europe just now but the lad behind the plow keeps right on with his forward movement in the U. S. A, If war comes some men will fight from choice, a few from necessity and the majority will let the other fel- lows do their fighting. - Did you change back yesterday?
