''■■— ; m EXCOMMUNICATING GERMANS In consideration of the fact that the Pioneer Press is the recognized organ of the dominant faction of the Republi can party, one is at a loss to know whether most to deplore its genius for making impolitic strokes or to admire the heroic qualities of its folly. As an illustration of its facility for courageous blundering we. find in yesterday's issue an article on Mr. Scheffeii's candidacy, in which by one bold stroke of the pen the entire German voting population of this state are excommunicated from the Republican party, and are plainly given to understand that their longer adhesion to the Republican cause is neither ex pected nor desirable. The Pioneer Press admits that Mr. Scheffer is the representative of the senti ment prevailing among our German citizens in opposition to the high license and locaf option policy of the Republi can party— policy to which the Pio neer Kress says the Republican party stands irrevocably committed — and, hence, in order to crush Scheffeb and to prevent the possibility of his assum ing leadership of the party, the P. P. finds it necessary to read the whole Ger man element out of the party. It will be a costly movement to the Republican party; yet, according to the P. P.'s idea, Ik>ss rule and corporation . supremacy must be maintained, if it does come high. • -^ BLAINE AND TRUSTS. The New York Tribune endeavors to get Mr. Blame out of a hole by saying that he has not defended trusts, butonly perceives the difficulty in legislating against them at "Washington. The only difficulty experienced in legislating against combinations at Washington is that the Republican senators think, as Mr. Blame has said, that -trusts are private affairs and not to be interfered with. Whenever we get a majority of legislators in the two houses of congress who prefer to serve the people rather than the "combines," there will be no difficulty in legislating aginst trusts at Washington. The Kepublican organs are engaged In a vain task when they attempt to mend Mr. Blame's utterances concern ing trusts. In his advocacy of the iniq uitous trust system Mr. Blame is hon estly in accord with the principles of his party. The combines of every de scription are the legitimate offspring Of the policy of protection. If it had not been for the high tariff policy of the Republican party monopoly would never have gotten a foothold on this continent. As long as the Republican party cham pions protection it is logically bound to uphold all its concomitants, trusts in cluded. -^O" SPORTING REFORM. SPORTING REFORM. The New York Herald has sprung a new reform movement. It says that the man who discovers or invents a plan for determining with exactness the true winner in a close and disputed finish on • the race track will bring about a reform that will be hailed with satisfaction by thousands interested in racing. The fallibility of judges and the disposition to question the justice and accuracy of their decisions, even when they are right, produce unlimited dissatisfaction -in the sporting world. In view of the perfection to which photography has been brought, it does seem that the camera might be brought in as an aux iliary to the judges. By the instantane ous process an expert photographer could give a picture of the exact position of the horses at the finish and thus re- move all occasion for dispute. 'I'm- photographer can be of valuable assistance on the race course, but art and science will have to make consider- able progress yet before any device can be originated to reconcile the world to an umpire's decision in abase ball game. -♦- THE ENGLISH OF IT. Light begins to dawn upon the Re- publican accusation against the Demo- crats of having a partiality for the En- glish. When Gen. Hahkison went to Middle Bass the silk stocking press re-. ports that were sent out said the ladies of the party suffered from maf denier. When Judge Tiiithman went oyer to Port Huron the old fashioned Andy Jackson press reports called it sea-sick- ness. It is the Democratic custom of using plain English language that the Republican aristocrats* are disturbed about. «^» DONNELLY'S DECISION. Ignatius Donnelly stopped in Chi cago on his homeward way long enough to shout ahead of him that he would not i be a candidate for - governor of Minne sota this year, and reaffirmed that de- cision in his talk with the Globe. Mr. Donnelly deserves credit for his thoughtfnlness, for he doubtless labored under the impression that there was great suspense in the public mind up this way to know what his intentions were. As a matter of fact, however, Mr. Donnelly need not have put him self out a particle to have imparted this information, He lias been, away from home for a long time, and will return to realize, that when one is gone he is soon forgotten. For the-, first time in a- great while Minnesota politics are moving along this year with out - indication that - Mr. Don nelly is in existence. Occasionally his name is mentioned in connection with political matters, but it is more, as a reminiscence than as an active and positive factor. He is now looked upon as a man who belongs essentially to the Baconian age or the Shakespearean period, while new prophets have arisen in the land to take his place. It is a wise man who can adopt himself to sur rounding circumstances, so that Mr. Donnelly's determination not to be a candidate for governor of Minnesota this year indicates that he has got near enough home to catch on the political situation in great shape. mm* SCHEPPEK WON FAIRLY. SCHEFFEB WON FAIRLY. Both of Mr. Mekiuam's organs are out of joint because of the corruption developed in the Republican prima ries last Saturday, and they continue to lay the charge of corruption at Mr. Scheffeii's door. The Pioneer Press starts off with an assertion, which we are not disposed to controvert, that Re publican politics in Ramsey county is in a more corrupt stage than ever ex isted in the South in the halcyon days of earpet-baggism, or in New York dur ing the supremacy of the Tweed ring. The Globe has no in terest in the quarrel between the Mekkiam and the Scheffek factions, nor is it disposed to put its nose into a purely family row. But occupying an impartial and independent position, we can probably see things in a clearer light than the organs are apt to view them. From our standpoint we are free to say that we believe that Mr. ScnEFFEK is free from the charge of corruption. In the first place, he is recognized to be a man possessing the highest sense of honor, and would not countenance questionable methods in politics, even though he were to be the beneficiary. In the second place, we fail to see any necessity for Mr. Scheffer to resort to a corrupt use of money to secure an in dorsement from his friends and neigh bors. To go back a little, we invite a com parison of the political experiences of Messrs. .Merriam and Scheffer, sim ply to show that the result of last Saturday's primaries was logically in accord with what was to be expected. Three years ago Mr. Merriam was the Republican candidate for mayor of this city, and was snowed under by a ma jority of 3,600. Two years ago Mr. Schkffer was the Republican candi date for state senator, and was elected by the unanimous vote of this city. This evidence in favor of Mr. Schef fer's personal popularity and of Mr. Merriam's lack of popularity is in itself sufficient to reconcile any fair minded, unprejudiced person to the discrepancy in the vote between these two gentlemen at the Kepublican primaries. The wonder is that Mr. Merriam got as many votes as he did, especially as he was recog nized as the machine candidate. As we have stated, this is no quarrel of ours, and we do not propose to get mixed up in it. We simply desire to state facts and to place the situation be fore the public in fairer light than the machine organs are dispose to do. Mr. Scheffer won fairly, and against odds that a less pomilar man would have lost. ' EDITORIAL. CHAT. "Milk Shakes!" is the Republican war cry in Wisconsin this year. W. D.

Merriam's defeat in Ramsey county produced a change in Ihe plan of the Kepublican bosses, according to the Globe's pre- diction, and the deal is now on to make Gilman governor, and to put Merriam into Sarin's shoes. It is .anything with the bosses to beat Scheffer aud to crush the Germans. * * * Tlie folly of permitting tight rope and flying trapeze performances had a sad illustration last evening.

New York, Aug. 27.— Henry George held his first Cleveland and Thurman ratification meeting to-night, and be sides himself William Lloyd Garrison was a speaker. Mr. Garrison, the spirit of the meeting, was embodied in a line upon a canvas behind the speakers-^ "Free Trade," '»Free Land," "Free Men." Mr. Garrison said the Republi can party, content to dwell in the is sues of the past, stood upon one side, . while on the other was the Democratic party, be wildered. Said Mr. Garrison, among other utterances. "We have no desire to conceal that our attitude is one of ab solute free trade. We warn not only against the spirit of protection, which is a relic of despotism and monarchy." Speaking of Mr. Blame, Mr. Garrison said: "This mau . KNOWS NOT THE MEANING ; of a principle," and then, "it is but jus tice to Mr. Cleveland to admit that under his administration the colored voter has not at least been . more de frauded of his legal rights than under Grant, Garfield or Arthur." Henry George said: "I stand here to ratify the nomination of Grover Cleveland and Allen G. Thurman as president and vice presi dent of the United States. • Grover Cleveland is the true labor candidate of to-day. lam a free trader, and the man who is afraid to be branded as a free trader does not know the powers of the word free. Raise all revenues by the single tax, we say; and when we go by the side of Cleveland and Thurman we take the first step in that direction. Protection [scornfully] is a lie, a sham, a fraud and a humbug. Why does labor want protection when it produces all wealth? All labor needs is freedom. If protection can raise wages, why are they not better than they are? Protectionists have had their way for years, audit is about time we tried free dom." HOMILIES POR HOOSIERS. Senator McDonald Sounds the Democratic Battle Cry in In- diana. ' India anpolls, Ind., Aug. 27.— One of two or three speeches that are to be regarded as Democratic keynotes in In diana was delivered here to-night at a meeting of the Hendricks club by ex- Senator McDonald. It was expected that something especially interesting would be said about the president's Canadian retaliation policy, but he alluded to the subject only briefly, saying simply that Mr. Cleveland had turned "the tables on the lie publicans and that they must bear the responsibility for the present relations of the United States with Canada. He devoted his address chiefly to the dis cussion of the tariff question. Senator McDonald began by quoting from Presi dent Cleveland's tariff reform message to congress. He touched upon the surplus of the federal treasury and quoted from the federal constitution to show that the only power of the government to . levy a tax is for its legitimate expenses incurred for the general good. He then took up and considered the Mills bill at length, promising he would review it to some extent from the Indiana standpoint. In reply to the charges made by the He publicans that the wool clause of the bill was formed in the interest of the South, the .speaker said: "So far. from this being true, with reference to the wool and woolen tariffs and the changes proposed, if they discriminate against any section of the country it is against the Southwest and the Pacific states. There have been changes going on from the foundation of our government in re gard to what may be termed the wool centers that are irrespective of tariff provisions. In the early history of our country New England was the CENTOS OF WOOL PRODUCTION. Then it shifted to the Middle states, then to the West, and finally it passed the Mississippi river, and is located in the Southwestern states and territories, and in the states of the Pacific slope." ; Senator McDonald quoted from sta tistics to sustain this point. In view of this the interest of Indiana, he de clared, was in cheap wool in order to have cheap clothing. Hereafter In diana would raise sheep for mutton rather than for wool. The speaker denied that free wool would injure either the sheep raiser or the laborers engaged in woolen mills; that, on the contrary, they would be benefited. It may be -, safely assorted that the future success of the manufacturing interests of the United States will turn very greatly upon the questions of cheap raw materials, cheap plants and cheap machinery. Our nat ural advantages in the production of cotton, and our mineral resources ought to furnish us with cheap raw material in at least the leading articles of manu facture, but cheap plant and cheap machinery can only be secured by re lieving the articles necessary to be used in their construction of the burdensome taxation which they at present are sub ject to." He then proceeded to criticise the Republican national platform, de claring that under it the only possible reduction of taxation is the repeal of the internal revenue tax. Next he argued that the Mills bill is NOWISE A FKEE TRADE - measure, inasmuch as the average duty under it is estimated at 40 per cent ad valorem. The speaker declared that reductions ought to continue until an average, such as existed when the Re publicans came into power, is reached, about 19 per cent. He then proceeded to give his objections to a protective tariff system as class legislation, as it places labor in the absolute control of capital, as it fosters trusts by shutting out for eign competition, and as it excludes us from foreign markets. He closed with an eulogy of the Democratic national ticket, and charged that Gen. Harrison is not as claimed, a conspicuous friend of the workingman. BELVA IS ON DECK. BELVA IS ON DECK. She Will Address the Grangers at She Will Address the Grangers at Williams' prove. Special to the Globe. Williams' Grove, Pa., Aug. 27.— The interstate grangers* picnic opened to-day. The arrivals reached between 4,000 and 5,000. indicating larger crowds than last year. Hundreds of thousands ' of dollars' worth of agricultural ma- chinery is on the ground, the display covering acres of ground. President Cleveland and Candidate Harrison were expected to lend their presence to the picnic, but it is doubtful if either of them will put in an appearance. Belva Lock wood is the only presidential can- didate who has written an acceptance of the invitation tendered. She will make a speech on Thursday afternoon. Speeches are expected from Congress- man Bott and Osberne Maich, of Perm- sylvania ;' Patch, of Wisconsin, chair- man of the committee on agriculture, and McKiuley aud Gov. Beaver;, DOES NOT FEAR WAR, Still Blame Can't Avoid Talking A bout the President's Message. Waterville, Me.. Aug. 27.— Blame addressed an audience ot about 2,000 here this f afternoon in the open air, but made only a short speech, ow ing to hoarseness. - He addressed him self principally to vvorkiugmen, dwell ing upon the injury which 7/ould be ; done them should the president's tariS j policy be carried into effect. Mr. j Blame then referred to President I Cleveland's message upon • the fishery ■ treaty as a mere scheme to divert the . attention of the American people, from the question of protection and stop as much as possible the popular discussion on . that subject,- '- which he feared would only strengthen the Republican position. In his present spirit he said the president will be satis*, j fied with nothing that does not put courage in his administration and pro tective tariff out of the minds of. the people. The speaker believed that con-: , gress would not gratify the. president. ! and that the American people would j put the whole question over to next year, by which time the Republican ad ministration would be in power, when the question could be equitably settled* I He expressed sympathy j with Senator i Morgan, of Alabama, and Hon. William L. Putnam, of Maine, in their efforts to ' second the presi dent. While Mr. Putnam is advocating a peace policy in the fisher- ' ies negotiation the president takes the ground from under his feet by asserting loudly that "we must have a" go at Can ada, with vengeance, one and all." Then, with a side glance, the president iiit'mates to them all, "Don't be alarmed ; there won't be a bit of this row with Canada after election. Concluding, Mr. Blame said: "The president's machine is contrived to run about seventy days, but it will surely work without harm to men in front of it, and may 1 not add that it is admirably arranged to kick and kill men behind it."

' New York, Aug. Twelve sailors from the English bark Gyfie, who ar rived here on the steamer Persian Monarch last evening, appeared before the British consul to-day and through Boatswain Bergquest charged that in their opinion" and belief Capt. Tait, of the Gyiie, made a futile attempt to cast the bark away in the hope of robbing the insurance companies. The Gyfie sailed from Quebec on July 3 loaded with timber bound to Greenock, Scot land. . The vessel sprung a leak and returned to St. Johns, N. F. After being repaired she again resumed her voyage. She sprang : a leak again on the night of Aug. 10, but by means of the pumps the men easily kept the water from gaining any headway. On the morning of the 20th the pumps gave out altogether, and the men swear the pumps, which were new, had been tam pered with. John Brown, the steward, swears that on the 20th he saw. the cap tain and mate go down into the hold and the mate boring " holes with an auger. When the Persian Monarch came to the Gyfie's assistance all hands with the exception of Second Mate Rob inson went on board. The latter re fused to leave the vessel, believing he could keep her afloat. Capt. Tait .and his first mate, seeing the determination of Robinson not to leave the vessel, re turned to the Gyfie, but the rest of the crew refused to accompany them. "~ FIERCE FOREST FIRES. The Upper Peninsula of Michigan Swept by the Devouring Ele ment. Marquette, Mich., Aug. 27.— Forest fires are raging along the railway lines in the peninsula.- At Mumford twenty five buildings burned, causing a loss of $15,000, with little insurance. At Carney the Menasha Woodenware company lost 500 cords of staves, a barn and twenty tons of hay. Brown & Co., in bark and cedar posts, lost $2,000. It is feared that in the back districts there will be loss of life. It is difficult to get re ports about the forest fires near Na deau, but it is believed they are* worse than at first reported. Several build ings were burned last night and the vil lage is going by piecemeal. A number of families living on farms near the vil lage escaped with nothing but their clothes, and are now beiug cared for at Powers. Owing to -the flames and smoke it is impossible to tell whether the people living farther back from the settlements have lost their lives or not. The heaviest, individual losers are the Menasha Woodenware company and Ballou & Carney, The former loses £5,000 on staves, etc, and the latters2s, --000 on buildings and wood. The Chi cago & Northwestern Railway company lose $15,000 on cars and buildidgs. There are many fniall losses. The family of seven reported missing from Mumford have not yet been heard from. - ,' SKIPPED WITH THE CASH. One of the Owners of a Bank in j Hillsdale, Mich.. Absconds With a Big Boodle.

Aug. 27.— A prob ably fatal accident, from the reckless use of fire arms, occurred on a city road yesterday. During a conversation between Leona Sleick, aged thirteen years, and Mrs. Frazer, the latter picked up a revolver and, in a jocular manner, said: "Leona, I'll shoot you." The revolver went off, the bullet entering the girl's right chest, penetrated the lung on the same side and lodged be- I hind the shoulder blade. The bullet could hot.be found.

Manton, United States consul at Colonia, Uruguay, who is in Wash ington on leave of absence, predicts, in an interview, the breaking up of the great empire of Brazil, "Its affairs," he says, "are in a precarious state. The emancipation of the slaves was merely a sop thrown by Princess Isabella, the regenta, to the Liberals. The six south ern provinces, really the strength of the empire, are ripe for revolt and a re public. They only await the death of l)om Pedro, when they will split the empire, and a resident will rule over. Brazil." Consul Manton says that Uruguay is prosperous, thriving and growing. "But the Argentine repub lic," he says, "is the wonder of the world. With a population of only about 5,000,000, she has an immigration of 500,000 a year. . . : . . BEATS THE COMSTOCK.

Chicago, Aug. 27.— general pas- senger agents of the Chicago, St. Louis and Missouri river roads sent notice to day through Chairman Abbott to the Eastern trunk lines canceling any au thority which may heretofore have been . given for the use of any net rate on for eign immigrant business or the use of any charge for terminal expenses in excess of 10 per cent, not exceeding $1 ■ per ticket, and requiring the restora tion of full agreed tariff rates and pro portions on emigrant business to take effect not later than Sept. 2. It is the same notice applied to the Southwest territory and business that was prey- iously given by the Chicago and St. Paul roads for the Northwestern terri tory. Responses received from the trunk lines give assurances that a meet- ing will be held this week for the pur- pose of putting into effect these require- ments of their Western connections. PRACTICALLY BANKRUPT. • _______ Such Is the Condition of the Kan- Such Is the Condition of the Kan sas & Texas Railway. New York, Aug. 27.— The Kansas & Texas Investigating committee to-day submitted their report to the directors. It gives in detail the physical condi tions of all branches of the road, as well as the financial condition of the com- pany, but makes no recommendations in regard to a reorganization or assess- ment on stock. The committee states that it will require at least $8,000,000 to place the road in good order, while ex- tensions of uncompleted lines will re quire nearly §1,000,000 more. It finds tiiat the apparent surplus had no exist- ence, and that really there has been a deficit of over $3,000,000 since the Mis- souri Pacific leased the road, and for the year ending Aug. 1, 1888, the deficit will amount to over $800,000. The com- mittee and the directors decline to state what steps they will take to improve the condition of the property. CHANGES IN THE MANITOBA. Resignations and Promotions Re- ported in the Management. As the stockholders of the Manitoba road will, in a few days, hold a meeting in this city, many old reports and some new ones have been set afloat in re gard to changes that , are to take place i among the general officers. It is re- ported that J. J. Hill will resign the presidency and that he will be sue- ceeded by General Manager Manvel; that A. L. Mohler is to be made general manager, and that C. W. Case, of the Milwaukee road, is to take Mr. Mulder's place. These are the three re- ports, but there is no satisfactory evidence that any of them are true. . The people at headquarters of the road will not admit or deny, and decline to talk upon the subject. It is evident, however, that some important changes are soon to be made. Mr. Hill has almost worn out one life in the last fifteen years. He needs rest, and knows it, and has wealth enough to en able him to take it. Mr. Case, of the Milwaukee, recently stated that he had been offered a position on the Manitoba. NOW COMES THE RUB. — t St. Paul & Duluth the Only Line St. Paul & Duluth the Only Line That Has Not Consented to Ad- vance Rates. ~ Chicago, Aug. 27.— The committee appointed some time ago by the Chicago and St. Paul roads to confer with the Lake Superior lines relative to a pro- posed advance in rates will meet to- morrow at St. Paul.

To-day the notice was withdrawn. The officials or . the road said their competitors were not in- clined to co-operate, and the road would therefore continue to quote the war rate of 18 cents until the restoration should be general.

IN FINANCIAL STRAITS. -Harrison Managers Appeal to the Faithful for Sinews of War. Special to the Globe. _v , : -New York, Aug. 27.— 1t has been well-known for some weeks that the Lepublican national committee has. in spite of Money-Bags Morton's contribu tion, been very short of funds. The committee has economized in every dl- n»Cii°n"', '■°"»1 '.they are running to-day under double-reefed sails. This is ex- fes fPart!ll,ly *>y the fact that blame s friends,- such as Carnegie. }$. *. Jones, Steve Ekins, William Waiter l helps haven't put up any of th* boodle, and don't propose to do so until such time as the Harrison men make definite terms with the plumed knights, by which the plumed knights expect to be 7i°- ?t,case of Harrison's election. In this dilemma the Harrison managers have been resorting to every expedient to raise money, fhey have even had the cheek to notify all Republicans who now positions under the present administration to come up to the captain office . and settle. Word has been passed around that if they don come to time, there will be music for them hereafter in case Harrison is elected.

Seven New Cases of Fever in Jack- sonville — The Scare Is Abating. Jacksonville, Fla., Aug. 27.— day ends the first month of the exist- ence of yellow fever in Jacksonville, the first suspicious case having .been brought here July 88. The record is as follows: Total cases, 107; deaths. 17; discharged cured, 28; under treatment, 02, many of whom are convalescent. The sensational stories about the sup- pression of news of cases and deaths by the authorities are utterly false. Possi bly a few cases have not* been reported by family physicians, but the number is doubtless offset by cases reported that are not typical yellow fever cases. No deaths have been suppressed. There have been seven uew cases since »> o'clock last evening. There is great in- dignation at the shutting off of middle Georgia and the mountains, 'ihe modi- fication not allowing persons to go to points beyond the Wilmington " and Memphis lines is regarded as a freak of the marine hospital service. Politi cal work is much hampered by the fever and consequent scare. Both the Democratic and Republican candidates for the governorship have been quaran tined, Capt. Fleming at Monticello and Col. Thyman at his home in Sawtey, for harboring relatives who are refugees from this city. Both are free now. The schooner Charlotte Sibley, with ice from Belfast, Me., came in to-day. The crew stopped at Mayport. - The vessel was brought up by a tug in charge of Stevedores. They will be towed to the saw mill below the city, fumigated and loaded with lumber and turned over to the captain and crew at Mayport. Since the fever has attacked the negroes the colored population has thinned out con' siderably. TO HKAD OFF REFUGEES. Special to the Globe Washington, 27.— Surgeon General Hamilton has appointed Dr. Stratton, formerly a. health inspector ot Rich- mond, Va., to act as inspector of all trains coming to this city from the south. He will board the trains between Wash- ington and Alexandra, and by examin- ing the tickets will discover all passen gers coming from the fever-infected points intending to stop over in Wash- ington. Such persons will be closely watched and located by Health Officer Townshend, at whose request the ap pointment was made. It is not intended to quarantine the city, but keep a look- out for refugees. Dr. Stratton began work this afternoon. Yellow Jack in Quakcrdom. Philadelphia, Aug. '27.— man suf fering with all the symptoms of yellow fever was admitted to the Medico- Chirnrgical hospital to-night.

LONGER THAN LESSEPS'. A Plan for a Big Ditch in Dakota to Be Discussed by the Deep Water Convention. Denver, Col., Aug. About 500 delegates from the states and territories west of the Mississippi to the deep water convention have arrived, and about as many more are expected on to- night's and to-morrow morning's trains. The convention will be called to order at 1:30 to-morrow afternoon by J. B. Porter, chairman of the committee of arrangements. Gov. Adams will de- liver an r.d.lress of welcome. From present indications there will be a bitter light between the Aransas Pass dele- gates and the Galveston men as to' the location of the harbor at these points. The majority of the Texas delegates, however, are in favor of asking congress' to make the necessary appropriations and leave its location to the govern- ment. Some are in favor of petitioning congress for an appropriation sufficient to build harbors at both Galveston and 'Aransas Pass. It is not probable that the. latter plan will be adopted, as the for- mer has friends in nearly all the delega tions now here. Thomas McConnell, delegate from Dakota, is here- with a proposition^ which will be presented to the convention. He asks congress for an appropriation' to tap the Missouri river at a point in the southeastern part of Flannery county and construct a canal, which shall be 100 feet in width, twenty feet deep along the water-shed to the east between the Missouri and the James, to a point in Stutsman county. The canal will be 480 miles in length, and will cost §20,000,000. He says that when completed it will not only throw open to navigation over 1,500 additional miles, through a most ex- cellent farming and agricultural coun- try, but will afford irrigation facilities for 32,000,000 acres of land only lacking an advantage of this kind to assist in growing crops. _ m^ McGill Men Win.
