PAUL, MONDAY, JUNE 18. 1883, Bili.ee Ccandleb didn't cut any figure lo speak of in the New Hampshire sena torial election, and what is more satis factory, in all the future, he never will. J. H. Haveely is getting on his legs again, all the creditors attaching his prop ertybeinj paid oil' except those who put a plaster on his Fourteenth street theater. Of the 692 bills passed by the New York legislature only 522 received the ap proval and signature of the governor. For thus interposing his veto the governor is savagely criticised by the Republican pa pers. Yesteedai was midsummer in the vaatl • . ir.bnt it was all the summer muine we kind have yet had this year. 3t ifa- the turning over of a new leaf, how ever, in the quality of the atmosphere, and straw hat-, linen dusters, white vests and dresses met :: more than half way. The number of pupils registered at Buf falo, N. V.. for attendance during the win ter tern: — -when the schools are fullest — was 20,687. of these 10,301 were of Ger laan parentage, 2.(533 of Irish parentage, other foreign nationalities 2,293, 113 color ed, and 5,460 of American parentage. The Cleveland Leader, the principal Republican paper of the state asks "Can the Republicans carry Ohio?" The Prov idence Press, also Republican says, "the prospects are not very bright, and the Re pnMicacs will have their hands full." It may be remarked that is about "the size of it," if not more so. Thz supreme court of Ohio is holding back the decision regarding the Scott liquor tax license law. Three members of the court are candidates for election upon the Republican ticket. Their politics ren der them timid in the discharge of their judicial duties. The people will take the cowards off the bench next October. Govebnoe FosTEß,of Ohio, was in Wash ington when the verdict of the star route jury became public. He very soon met (Jen. Brady, and shook his hand warmly, saying: "1 congratulate you on your vin dication. lam glad of it, but I always thought it would turn out that way." If .Foster isn't careful the Republican admin istration will have him indicted for being a horse-thief, or something of that sort. In Pittsburg and other places subscrip tions are being raised for a fund for the defense of young Nutt, who shot Dukes. Expressions of approval of the act are universal. Hon Charles E. Uoyle, who de fended Dr.kes when he was on trial for murdering Capt Nutt. being asked to provsecute young Nutt, positively declined to appear against the youth who shot his client. Mb. Beewstec says he retained Merrick and Keras prosecuting attorneys in the *fc»T route case because they were Demo crats, so as to disassociate the case from politic?. Why did he go to such pains? The stealing, if any was done, was nnder a Republican administration, ond< r ■•■-. i - Iracls executed by Republican 1 party fealty, while the ih v.e-. i they were, -tood high in : ; - Republican party. No Demo crat .'id.- even in the forty the thefts, the eon iwarding of the contracts. The case from its inception was a familj quarrel, entirely within the narrow pre cincts of the Republican party, ard no it or small, had any part in it. Brewster must have had a bottle too '.rideavored to bring the question of politics into a matter that had ■no politics in it. Now that Dorse; is acquitted of the charge of conspiracy to plunder the pub lic tttasury, he proposes to reveal some of the bottom facts connected with the last presidential campaign, with an especial view to accommodating those who, while willing to accept his assistance when they were running for office were the first to tarn upon him when they thought he was down. In his position as secretary of the Republican National committee he was the receptacle of much valuable informa tion — from a political standpoint — and treasured up that information in a reten tive memory. He has ascertained that it has been the habit of the truly moral managers of the "grand old party" to burn the bridges behind them, to destroy ihe correspondence and records of every campaign as soon as the votes are counted <w placed to the credit of the party by fair means or foul . He has, nevertheless, an abundance of evidence to discomfit many ©f these who have been the most furious in denouncing him when they thought him the under dog in the fight. It will certain ly be interesting to learn of the devious doings of the truly moral managers of thus party, and Mr. Dorsey cannot begin his revelations too soon. CRYIXQOUT AGAINST DII'OIiVE. The public mind is called upon to en counter frequent shocks arising from some scandalous transactions made permissible by the di vorce courts. In setting aside and an nulling the fraudulent divorce procured i>y Major Nickerson, the Philadelphia said it was a great shame and dis grace that the laws of Pennsylvania made the procurement of a divorce under the Buoamstanoes that arose in that case pos- j sible . But the laws are loose and lax ' aeai \y everywhere, and there seems to be no B jch pric" : . gof the public conscience ft* to re-t a to marriage the lapse waich now r.i.Jers it but little more than bigarnom ..n<l polygamous license. Re eight clergymen of different Prot ■tstant denominations in the city of Los Angeles united in a public declaration that they would perform the marriage service for no divorced person except the innocent party to a divorce granted for scriptural reasons. This is a step well taken in the direction of quickening the public con science. Not that it will directly result in removing suits , of divorce from the courts, or particularly hinder divorced persons from remarrying,|for there are plenty of clergy men who are not as Spartan-minded as the eight of Los Angeles, but the stand taken is a starting point for the growth of a public sentiment through which the lax legal and moral abuse of marriage may be some what remedied. At the sitting of the Dio cesan convention of Northern Ohio,at Cleve land last week, the subject of divorce was extensively discussed and expressions made by resolution to the effect that divorce should never be granted except for adul tery. A resolution was adopted requesting the president of the convention, Bishop Bedell, to communicate with other recog nized bodies of other denominations in that state, in order to secure united action upon the subject. It is to b6 hoped the movement thus begun will find general co operation. If clergymen will take their stand, as in the cases cited, there wiil be lay support of great moral weight, and a legal reform instituted which the public conscience will sustain. UIXDSDALE "DIDN'T BLAB." 13. A. Hindsdale, a former president of Hi ram college, and now superintendent of public schools at Cleveland Ohio, was au intimate friend of President Garfield. whom the latter intended to appoint to a prominent mission abroad, but was pre vented by the fatal occurrence of July 2, 1881. Since the President's death Mrs. Garfield appointed Mr. Hinsdale the editor of her husbands literary remains and con fided to him all the correspondence, papers and materials neccessary for an authentic work. For some little time a report has been current at Washington that during the campaign of 1880 Garfield made a compact with Jay Gould to appoint Stan ley Mathews a justice of the supreme court in consideration of $100,000 subscribed by Gould to the Republican campaign f and. Whitelaw Reid of the New York Tribune is said to have ingintered the scheme and after some persuasion got Gould to pay over the money. It was common rumor at Chicago at the time of the nominating convention that if Blame was made the Re publican candidate for President, Gould wouid on the spot pay $250,000 to the campaign fund and further either secure from others or pay himself an additional sum making the whole contribution from that quarter not less than a half million dollars. This knowledge naturally induced a desire to secure from Gould a contribution to assist Garfield. That Gould was approached and that he con tributed has always been known, though the terms of the compact have not been public property. Two or three days ago a report was telegraphed from Washington that among the papers in the possession of Mr. Hinsdale are letters and telegrams that passed between Garfield and New York politicians during the presidential cam paign, and pending the trouble with Conk ling growing out of the Robertson appoint ment. Among this documentary matter are said to be letters confirming the com pact with Jay Gould. Another branch of the story is that the letters and documents held by Hinsdale, would if published show that Garfield was reluctant to break with the stalwarts and that he was persuaded by Blame and Whitelaw Reid to take the course he did, which provoked the wrath of the stalwarts, and raised up a Guiteau, whereby he came to his death. All those things, the dispatch alleged would be sub stantiated if Hinsdale would give out the letters for publication. Ip consequence of the direct statement associating Hinsdale with this store of in formation, a reporter of the Cleveland Plain DenJa- called upon that gentleman to make inquiry in regard to the matter. In response Mr. Hins dale dictated a reply to the effect that he had published no such documents au i did not "intend to at r resent." To a direct inquiry as to whether he had anj such documents, Mr. Hinsdald would make no direct reply, but intimated that he knew a great : jal "that would interest the public" . he "were to blab." but that he "didn't blab." He further intimated that it was no business of the public whether he had the documents in question or not. The treatment of the subject by Hinsdale is very like that gentleman, and was intend ed by him to be an exceedingly adroit and wise reply, one that would throw every body off the scent. But does it? welLhardly. The public will not fail to draw its own inference, and it will draw a correct one. Hinsdale don't need to publish his docu ments. He's "blabbed." JiVT LITTLE UKDERBTOOD. If there is any question the American people do not understand, but over which they will go wild about as quick as a wild bull over a red rag. it is the tariff and free trade question. Set r. dozen of the most commercially educated minds to work for their opinion on this vexed question and they will come in with a dozen different opinions, at variance with each other as perfectly as though they had started iv with the pur pose of determining how far they could get apart in arriving at conclusions. When tariff matters are adjudicated upon in congress, the work is done by a committee who are for the most part made up of men skilled in legal lore, but with as much practical knowledge of the commer cial wants of the union as a whole, as a country blacksmith is of the intricate and delicate machinery of a detached lever or cylinder escapement. The fact of it is the American people are too busy in forwarding the great en terprise and growth of the country, either by the threshing of keen intellect or with the vigor of the brawny arm to settle down to the attempt at a thorough solution of this vexed question, and their passing it over to the adjudication of statesmen with full as little understanding of the subject as them selves, if not less, leaves them in heathen darkness from the close of one presidential term to the conclusion of another, and so on ad infinitum. Now, the war having been over twenty years, and the political arguments and contingencies growing out of it having been whipped into threads, the last one by the getting together of the people of the north and south iv commercial relations, in which friendly relations were sure to be concomitant, the tariff seems to be the only thing, a3 in the old Whig and Democratic party times, that the people THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE, MONDAY MORNING, JUNE 18, 1883. don't understand, that the politicians can fool with, and play battledore with in the next campaign. The evidence of the ignorance of the general public, in fact almost everybody, on this subject was well illustrated in the last presidential campaign,\vhen by the as sertion of the Republicans that the Demo cratic party were the advocates of a non protective tariff and that under it wages' would be reduced, they persuaded the In diauians to rush blindly into their ranks, and elevate taxation on quinine, the one article of their home consumption on which, from the quantities consumed, every mother's son of them was personally interested to have the tariff entirely taken off. The people of this country certainly should have free trade in all articles which their necessities require for food and health, and on all raw articles for manu facture, and in other matters on which they might vote intelligently they certain ly should have a good square commercial and non-partisan education from their best business minds. In this age of associations, amalgama tions and the gathering together of men for the forwarding of mutual interest?, a gathering of the practical commercial minds of the north, south, east and west in national convention, to compare opinions and to settle upon tariff and free trade questions from the standpoint of prac tical observation and experience and pro mulgate the result of their deliberations broadcast for the nation's highest interest, would remove this great and vital question from the political arena in which it has been used as a foot-ball by both parlies for the past fifty years, and give the world of commerce and business a welcome, grateful rest. Sach action would remove from the fields of our political action the conferring party matadors who sh,ike the blood red mantles of danger of political tariff and free trade in the eyes of the people in the attempt to vote them on a basis of tear -ather than of fact, and by this prevent thorn with their suffrages from securing the reforms iv government in which they stand at this moment in perilous need, and which a reconstructed republic now must and will have, be the day longer or shorter to its attainment, not by leaders or office holders, but through the ballot box. A Verdict Ayain.st the S/nj Si/stiin, On the evening after the acquital of the star route defendants Col. R . G. Ingersoll was sere naded. In response he made the following re remarks: Well, my friends, if you must have it, I will Eiiy that to-day has proved that we have twelve honest men in the District of Columbia. [Cheers.] The verdict was right for two rea sons: First, because the jurors were honi'M. courageous men. Second, because the de fendants are innocent. The verdict will be of incalculable benefit to the District, and 1 will tell you why. It means the end of the spy, de tective, and informer system here. The* De partment of Justice must now rely upon the evi dence of honest men. It is glory enough fur us to-night that we are not to be under the system of espionage that prevails in nearly every' despot ic country in the world. We want it so that every case can be tried on its merits. We want juries to find their verdicts on the facts and evi dence. We want every clerk in every depart ment to know that it has rights to decide hon estly and without fear or favor; that be need not sacrifice his manhood in order to keep his place. We want to teach tlie administration that they cannot terrorizejuries in this country. We want to teach presidents that they cannot force ju rors to decide against their honest convictior.s. We have done something of this sort. We have shown the people that there is justice in the District. The verdict is a triumph for the whole American people. It is the end of the spy and informing system. It is not my victory, but tne triumph of justice. [Cheers and shouts. ] Now, come in boys and sco me. [Renewed cheere. J t The Y. M. C. A. The twenty-seventh anniversary of the Young Men's Christian Association of the city of St. Paul was held last evening at the House of Hope church. Owing to the rain the attendance was very slim. The order of exercises consisted of singing, prayer, reading of scriptures, the reading of the treasurer's and president's report and an address by Rev. Robert West, Chi cago, 111., on "'Christ's Kingdom on Earth." I The two reports were up to the first of [ June and were printed at the time in the j Globe. Financially the association j is in a very satisfactory condition. bat, like all such organizations. it needs a good deal more ■ money to enable it to accomplish what it wants to do. It is an association that has I marked out for itself a good deal of work, but it cannot accomplish all it wants to. or all it seeks to without several thousand dollars, and the point in hand is to get the neceisary money. It is to be hoped the gentlemen interested in this matter will succeed in their endeavor and that the money will be forthcoming from some source. Xlie Minstrels. The Barlow, Wilson «fc Co. minstrel troupe that open at the opera house to-morrow evening, have an enviable reputation. An exchange speaks thus of the organization: Minstrelsy has such a charm for the peo ple of this ancient borough that the rain of yesterday afternoon, and the elevation of the storm signal last night, were not suffi cient to deter them from venturing into the academy of music. Barlow, Wilson cfc Co. may well felicitate themselves upon their reception. The academy was filled with a multitude of appreciative people, and they testified by unmistakable meth ods the pleasure afforded them by the pop ular airs of a superb orchestra, the melo dies of the Clipper quartette, impersona tions of negro characters, dancing, and a long catalogue of new and refreshing spec ialties. The audience was large, refined and discriminating, and this minstrel combination won its unstinted applause . They can safely repeat their call in the assurance of a warm greeting from the patrons of music and mirth. ■■Italian Re/ttttueatits." To the Editor of the Globe: St. Paul, June 17th. Can I call upon you for space to answer a communication appearing in the P.P. of June ,16, relating to Italian restaurants and fruit stands on corners, which statements in regard to same are false, and the person causing such statements to be published is r.n ignoramus or a fit subject for an icsane asylum, and if "Merchant" will send his name to us we will gladly furnish him with information in regard to St. Paul firms of whom we purchase our stock, and I can safely say we expend more money for stock than "Merchant" does m a year. Our license is $25 per year for each stand. Our restaurants are run as are all other public places, and if anything is disrespectful to the ordinances they would certainly be suppressed . Yours respectfully, G. Ye Losso. B. Vi Bene. Secretary of War Lincoln has become a student.

London, June 17.— The terrible calamity on Saturday evening is the subject of uni versal unhappy comment. The hall has been surrounded to day by distressed and excited crowds. The stairway from the gallery to the top of the landing where oc curred the pressure which led to the acci dent, was from five to six feet wide, and the gallery, through which the chil dren were allowed to pass, only one at a time which circumstances, is regarded as the direct cause of the ca lamity, was fitted with a bolt which lodged in a hole in the floor, thus narrowing the passageway for the purpose of facilitating ticket taking when the audience was en tering the hall. The j anitor says tne scene behind the gallery door was fearful. Some children were fixed upright in a heap and actually gasping for breath, so great was the pressure of the ciowd behind them. A majority of the children in the hall were under twelve years of age. Maputo, June If.,— John W. Foster, American minister, presented his creden tials to King Alfonso to-day. Foster ex pressed the warm friendship of President Arthur and the American citizens general ly for the king and the Spanish people. The long unbroken friendship between the United States and Spain was be said a source of pride to both, and he would en deavor, if possible, to strengthen the pres ent cordial relations between the' two countries. Foster dwelt upon the great debt the American continent owes to Spain and said he hoped the peace now eu joyed by Spain; would continue and that through improved commercial relations Spain and the United States might share each other's prosperity. Alfonso cordially re ciprocated Fosters good wishes, Cattabo, June 16.— There has been fighting in Albania since the 12th. Other tribes are expected to join the revolt. Montenegro has established a cordon on the frontier, to prevent the belligerents from entering the territory. STILLWAIEU. The German Catholic festival at Music hall was largely attended on Saturday evening. In addition to the ten entries for the coming races, several more are expected to be made in the course of the day. The work of removing the dangerous portion of the rock at the top of the big stairs is progressing as speedily as the nature of the undertaking will permit. John Goodrich, the young lad drowned in the lake last Saturday afternoon, wil' be buried this morning at 10 o'clock. The funeral will occur from the home of his parents on the North hill . The crowd at the Wigwam Saturday night was larger than ever. An hour after the doors were opened the hall was filled to repletion, and besides a large number of people were compelled to return home, be ing unable to obtain admission. A stranger was arrested on Saturday evening for shooting in the city limits. Rather than remain in the lockup until Monday morning, ha deposited his watch with the chief of police as security for his appearance in court at I) o'clock this morning. The fence that is being put up on the east side of second street, south of Chest nut, will serve two important purposes. It will answer admirably for posting bills and will also hid© from public view an unsavory spot in the immediate vicinity. A horse hired by Dan. McKenzie from Williams' livery stable on Saturday night, was found Sunday morning near Greeley's corner in a dying condition. The party named had first obtained the animai fo*r the purpose of driving in a buggy to the outskirts of the city, which was "done in company with John Welsh. The latter desiring to cross the lake, was permitted to take the rig and return to the city for the purpose indicated. In the morning Mr. Welsh went after his friend. Whiie on the way the horse fell and was- discovered as stated above. Mr. uaining in charge, evidently at a loss how to proceed. ! Whether the animal's death w,-.s the result ! of disease or was caused by over-driving and consequent exhaustion has not yet been determined. VERNDALE.

Crops never looked better at this season of the year than now. Grain has stooled nicely and has an excellent color. The prospect is unusually promising. David Creweli, of the firm of Clark, Crowell (iCo., Dower Lake, died yester day of pneumonia. The community mourns the loss of a worthy citizen and man of business. A. If. Pettit, Ike Hazlett, B. H. Pettit and E. N. Smith, members of the Wadena Boat club, were out to Battle lake fishing last Saturday. They took in two barrels of fine bass and pickerel. The Dower Lake base ball club has is sued a challenge to any club from Brainerd to Detroit, for a match game of ball at the lake, July 4. We have a club or two in mind that can wax it to them. Verndale will ask the Northern Pacific Railroad company to remove the ties and wood within the railroad switches, which we think the company will be willing to do, as we propose to slick up and have our town second to none in point of neatness and comfort. FAKIBAULT. Col. H. P. Mclllvaine died suddenly here to-day of heart diseasa. He was a colonel, in the late war, of a New York regiment and at one time acting brigadier general. Straight's story is that Mrr. S.tze came to his house Thursday morning and asked him to come to her house that day and give her a lesson on the guitar. He com plied and when he went in he told her it was a warm day, and asked if she had any objection to his taking off his coat during the lesson. She said certainly not. He took off his coat, and his boots were large and heavy and he took them off. He was sitting in a chair and had his feet on an other chair when Sitze came to the win dow, opened the blinds and looked in. Mrs. Sitze said, "Pa, come round to the door." He did come to the door, and rushed by his wife and grabbed a hatchet and started for Straight, but dropped this weapon and took a large knife, when Straight caught his arm and held him. In -the preliminary examination to-day of H. C. Straight ac cused of adultery, John Sitze, the com plaining witness, testified that he went to Northfield on the 7 a. m. train Thursday morning, came back on the noon freight, went down to his house and found the doors locked and the blinds down. His suspicions were aronsed. He tried to get in at the front door but found it locked, tried the side door and found it locked: went around to the bed room window, opened the bli ids, and saw Straight and his wife in bed. They jumped out, I ran to side door and broke it in and found Straight under the stairway partly undress ed; got a knife from the shelf and tried to use it on him. He grabbed me and held my arms, and I could not use it. I carried him out of the room and to the door on my back. We were then separated. LAKE till.

Thos. G. Knox. It has been so much the custom with the Ohio Republicans to nominate men with big bank accounts, that the selection of a ticket this year without a single man on it who can roll out a campaign '"barrel," is unaccountable at first glance. When the protective tariff plank is remembered, however, it is easy to be seen that the very necessary "barrel" was not overlooked and due provision has been made for a fat one. The protection barons took care of New York and Indiana in 1880 and they are expected to look after Ohio in 1883.
