IXCOXSISTKNT ORGANS.
Times go by turns, and the revolving |
wheel cat-ts off many ludicrous Incon
sistencies. This is particularly true
with reference to the shifting positions
necessitated by American politics. An
amoving exemplification is furnished by
the Republican newspapers of this state j
in their discussions of lowa politics. A
year ago, when the Prohibitionists were
assailing the hi^h license la v of Minne- j
sota, tin- Republican organs were loud i
and bitter in their denunciation of all
who maintained that prohibition was a
mote successful temperance measure !
than the high license system. Now that i
the lowa shoe happens to be on Hie i
other foot and the Republicans of thai !
Ftaie occupy the ground that the Pro- ;
hibitiouist-j occupied in this state one j
year ago, the leading Republican i
papers of Minnesota are vehement
In their support of prohibition, anil ;
profess to think that the Democratic ;
proposition to substitute hUh license ;
for prohibition in lowa is an outratrc '
against decency and morality. There i
was a notable Illustration of this change
of base in the Sunday's issue of the i
Minneapolis Tribune, in which there !
was labored editorial effort to demon
strate the wickedness of the lowa ]>;-m
--ocrats for proposing to enact a hijrh.
c use law in place of the prohibitory
statutes now in force. If the Prohibi- i
tion leaders want good campaign litera- t
ture to be used against the Republicans i
in this state in the next election, they I
will cut this Tribune article, out and
paste it in their hats. It is the most
forcible exposure of the high license
sham that we have y«t seen: but what i
puzzles is to know why what is sauce j
for the Minnesota goose should not also
be sauce for the lowa gander. If high |
license is the thing it is cracked up to j
be by the Republicans of Minnesota, '
we wouid like to know why it wouldn't i
be a good thins for the people of lowa.
There is an apparent inconsistency
about this tiling that we would like the I
Tribune, and the. other leadinfcßepublt- [
can papers of the st:it^. to explain. ]
HIGH-PBICKII PICOPERTT.
Bailroad Magnate Hi ntingtox has
the reputation of beinc a pood judge of
investments; yet there is an apprehen
sion among his countrymen that he is a
reckless buyer when it comes to pro
viding a husband for his daughter.
Prince LLvtzfei.dt was put in the
market at 52,000,006, and it is said that
Mr. UcsTiNCToa lias concluded to buy
him at that price. The young lady who
is chiefly interested in this transaction
first went over to Germany, and. after
Inspecting the property, pronounced it
a good investment But to make assur
ance doubly sure, Mr. llitntixgtox
■went over himself, and, having sized
iip the Uatzfeldt offer, is satisfied.
Prince 11. \TZFELr>T is not a race horse
with an Axtoll record, as many lano
rantly suppose, but he is a man— or, at
least, an apology ft r one; and yet Mr.
fluxTixc; rox is going to buy him and
make a .son-in-law of him. The terms
of the sale are 1800,000 spot cash, or
enough to clear up the young man's
gambling debts, and the remainder of
the $2,000,000 to be paid in solid Ameri
can railroad securities. This is a mod
deal biirsrer price than negro slave
traders ever paid for colored rentle
men in the Soutn in th«; old drys, but
princes are scarce in An. erica, and con
sequently come hiuh. Still, there are
philanthropic people in the world who
are lousing for the time when human
beincs will cease to Dc regarded as
chattel property, whether they be Ger
man princes or Guinea peasantry.
M :\V XEWBPAPBR BUILDINGS.
Western enterprise is infectious. The
East is catching it In fact, it has al
ready spread from St. Paul to New
York. Inspired by the Globe's ex
ample in building the first decent news
paper office in the country, two of New
Fork's greatest newspapers, the Times
and the World, have been encouraged
to build mansions for themselves worthy
of the inmates. The Times has just <».•
cupied the magnificent new quarters
which it literally built over its own
head, while the World has just laid
with imposing ceremonies the corner
stone of an edifice that is to be the pride
of the metropolis. Those superb pict
ures of the Gi.obk building which hang
in the editorial rooms of the Times and
the World doubtlraa suggested to their
proprietors the necessity for following
the spirit of Western enterprise. We
are also gratified that our missionary
labors in newspaper building nave
borne fruit right here at home. Our
neighbor, the Pioneer Press, is hanging
window curtains and mopping the floors
of its splendid new building prepara
tory to moving in. Tttus the good work
goes, and we hope to see the day when
every newspaper in the land will be v
comfortably housed an ourselves.
THIS SUBSIDY FKAIU.
It was a terrible Wander In Cckxis
to allow that man Wimas a cbancc to
cut a word into the ear of the other
America delegates at Niagara. The
great object was to instill into the minds
of the visitors the subsidy business as
the only relief, and WniAK tells them
that the idea of hiring men to bring in
dear goods will not work. The influence
of the conference is wanted to enable
steamship companies to obtain from
congress subsidies for opening lines to
the South American countries. This is
the only way for Mr. Bi.a.ixe and the
protectionists to effect anything with
out endangering their Chinese wall. To
concede freer commercial relations with
South America would be an admission
that the Democrats are right in ureing
a euneral tariff reduction. This subsidy
would be paying people to bring goods
in the face of a tariff designed to keep
them out. No very valuable extension
at commerce could be had in this way.
IHKIOWA vAMPUGV
The j olitical situation in lowa is
really becoming interesting. Hereto
fore the cap. tire of Holland by the
Dutch would have been as stale news
as a Republican victory in lowa, and
Democratic campaigns were inausa
rated more for the purpose of preserv
ing the form of parly organization than
with the expectation of succe&s. Bat
j the situation presents a different aspect
; this year. The Kepnblicau leaders no
; longer seek to disguise their appreben
; Eton that their state ticket will be
■ i eaten, and they have been compelled
I to do what they have never felt the
necessity of doing before— of calling on
the administration and the national
' cummittee for help. The revolt in the
i Republican ranks airainstniTCiiixsox,
I the Republican candidate for governor,
has grown to aluruiiiig proportions.
I The fanners' Alliance, which is a
.-trons: organization in lowa, has
i not only formally derlared against
HuTCHnrsoN, but has is.sueil a circular
i in which his legislative record is pub
; lished. and which shows him to have
I always been the active and consistent
; champion of the railroad interests in
the many memorable battles between
the farmers and the railroads in that
state. The Republican state committee
(Voided not to attempc a refutation of
the charges against II in juxsox. be
cause the legislative journal sustained
them and a denial was useless. Where
upon the Cedar Knpids Gazette, one of
the most inlluential Republican papers
in the state, immediately demanded the
withdrawal of Hctchissoh from the
tkset and the substitution of Lari:a
bes or some other man who was known
to be in sympathy with tlie farm
ers. This demand for Bvtchix
sox's withdrawal was joined in
by influential Republicans from
all parts of the state, but the sbite
committee refuses to act in the matter,
preferring to risk defeat with IlrTrii-
Eicsoa than to assure victory for the
party with any man who is opposed to
the monopolies. The Democratic can
didate for governor is an old-line Re
publican who quit the party a few years
ago because of its radical course on the
liquor question. He is in accord with
the fanners on the matter of railroad
legislation, and being an able, honest
man, it will not require a very great
stretch of conscience or a strain on con
victions for a Republican fanner to vote
For him. That the Democratic state
ticket will poll as unusually lartre vote
this year is admitted by all. That it
will be elected is confidently claimed by
the Democrats and conceded by a num
ber of the most, astute Republican poli
ticians. The situation is so serious for
the Republicans that Senator Allison
has found it necessary to take personal
.supervision of the canvass, and is said
to be working night and main to save
the legislature from the general wreck
that is expected at the Kovemlier elec
tion. It (seven being hinted by Uutch
lkson's friends that Ai.i.isox is playing
false to the state ticket In his anxiety to
save tlit legislature. There are those
who assert that it would t»e to Aijj
s<>\"3 Interest to have lowa placed in
the list of doubtful states, and that if
be can secure hi* re-election to the sen
ate., his ehaneea for the presidency will
be promoted by allowing the Democrats
to elect their state ticket. Alusoh's
s?reat obstacle to the presidential
nomination last year was the ar
gument that a candidate must be
taken from a doubtful state, and hence
11 a KuisoN was chosen, when Alusoh
would have been preferred if he had
only hailed from a state where the ma
jority was not always on one side. If
it is once understock! that lowa is de
batable ground, the effect will be to
boost Allison as a future presidential
possibility. In view of all these facts,
Democratic victory in the state of corn
palaces comes within the range of prob
abilities. I'nless tne revolting faction
can be whipped back into line, wnich
doesn't seem to be probable, the Demo
crats have more to count on in lowa
than in Ohio.
THE OLD SIOIiY.
One of the papers makes the recent
death of a pnnninent citizen of Pennsyl
vania the textjor a discourse upon the
fact that gooa men are all dying off.
The fact has been a current one tor a
considerable time. Good men have been
dying off ever since there were any to
die. It is, tin the whole, best that some
of them should drop out, as it is much
easier to see their virtues after they
have taken on spiritual wings. Then,
if there were only good people in the
world, it would make life terribly monot
onous. Then would be no vicious va
riety. About half the people in the
more minieious communities would
have nothing todo. There would be no
police, no pn-achers, no people eloping
with wrong parties, no men trying to
set their hands into wrong pockets, and
small needs for congress or boodle poli
ticians. It might be conceded also that
people not good in any positive sense
are dying off, too. _
AN EAACJGKKATIOX.
The failure of crops In the county of
Miner, in South Dakota, on account of
which there have been solicitations for
relief outside of the state, grows into a
general fact as it spreads over the coun
try: and as well informed a paper as the
Philadelphia Inquirer, in an appeal for
aid to l>e sent, expresses the general
impression in this:
"tjoutli Dakota already lias in pros
pect a famine winter. The crops have
f;tiled, and the farmers, many of whom
have nothing else to depend on, aie
lacinsr a long winter with little food and
little fuel -tor in that country the crops
that furnish food fun. ish fuel also.
There is plenty in the land, but here
and there a spot, like these Dakota
prairies, is pinched with famine/
It \i believed that any serious short
age in I'iops. such as to afford insufli
cient subsistence, is found in but a
-iugle rather small and purely agricult
ural county in South Dakota. The
crops in the main were fair, though
perhaps not quite up to the best figures,
as there was some lack of rain. An occa
sional local condition in any part of the
country produces a similar result, and
I'xciles ny disparaging comment upon
the locality. This does not seem to be
the case in the more westerly regions.
The limited loses its limitations. The
misfortune of a neighborhood or county
is taken as the prevalent fact in a state
une-thiid largo than Illinois in area.
Miner is a small county in area, with
about .'.,lM' population, and two years
ago raised f»82.000 bushels of wheat and
about half as much each of coru and
oats, besides 13.J.000 bushels of flax. It
HJE SAINT PAJTL TaAJLY GLOPE: IT KJ3AY MOENING, OCTOBER S2, 1889.
is a region of small farms, the average
being less than seventy acres. Some of
them may be owned by new settlers or
those so accustomed to good crops that
they made no provision for failure, and
are now somewhat short of supplies.
The state could better afford to furnish
them relief than to have appeals go
abroad, as the exaggerations do immense
damage to the country without distinc
tion of locality. Emigrants are. not
likely to come to a state reported on
the verge of famine. There should be,
now that the state machine is inaugu
rated, some channels of relief for all
such oases, and not ailow them to be
paraded abroad, to the detriment of the
entire state.
PULLKIi'S WISDOM.
"I will not allow my name to be used
in that connection," was the emphatic
way in which Chief Justice PUIXKB
spoke when he heard that some over
zealous Chicago friends w r ere booming
him for the presidency. That is ri»rht,
Mr. Chief Justice; just stay there. Not
that you are not qualified for the pres
idency, or would not make an available
candidate. Uut it would be the spoil
ing of a mighty good judce if you
should get the presidential bee in your
bonnet. A man on the bench has no
business hankering after the political
offices. And then it is a greatei honor
be a good chief justice than a bad pres
ident, or even a tolerably good one.
Washington- and Lixcolx may live
longer in history than John MabshaUh
but we doubt it: and it is absolutely
certain that no other presidents ever
built such enduring fame as the men
who have adorned the place that Mr.
Fn.i/Ki: now occupies. The chief jus
tice has made a good beginning, and if
he can keep his fool friends from mix
ing his name up with partisan politics,
his place in history is assured.
FOR A BQI7ARK ISSUE.
One of the most significantindications
that the Democrats have got together
everywhere is the fact that at the recent
gathering of Democratic clubs iv Phila
delphia the name of > r. Raitdaix was
received with manifestations of dis
favor, while Cleveland was warmly
applauded. There was no personal feel
ing in the matter. It was simply that
they have ceased to follow the lead of a
protectionist, and are squarely for tariff
reduction. It.is not many years since
they accepted Mr. RAITDAU. as their
leader, and kept step with him in the
support of high tariff policies. In 1884
they were strongly for their able, locil
statesman for president. They were in
fected with the Pennsylvania idea. But
they have been learning from the object
lessons of burdened and failing indus
tries, and the scales have fallen from
their eyes. The educational work is not
stopping at party lines.
A GOOD ÜBLBCTIOK.
The Democrats of the Ninth New
York district did i.ot have a man who
c >uld till Suhskt Cox's place in con
eress. But they did the next best thing
by picking the choice of the material on
hand and nominating Amos J. CUM
xcras as Mr. Cox's successor. It is a
district in which a Democratic nomina
tion is equivalent to an election, so that
Mr. Cvmmings will probably have a
walk-over, as Mi. Cox. was accustomed
to do. Mr. CrwMixos is a very bright
journalist, and the two years that he
formerly served in congress demon
strated bis capacity to deal with public
affairs. The bloody old Ninth made a
wise choice, and we predict that the
Empire City will have no abler or more
faithful representative in congress than
AMO> Cl "MMIXf.S.
Tun Pan-Americans, who are coming
I this way, are probably not very familiar
] with Sunday law or legal prescriptions
I restricted to water, but it must puzzle
: them to be given Sunday banquets and
general junketing in the capital of the
j'uritans. and in the commercial me'
' tropolis of New Hampshire, where the
' !aw has for twenty-five years prohibited
J the use of liquors, to ste the wine sraue-
I Kled under the name of ginirer ale. At

j ican Sunday.
The question as to whether the win
ter is to be a mild or a severe one is be
coming sectional, international and an
imalistic. The Connecticut wishbone
makes the winter even warmer than
the last, with scanty carnival weather,
while the Canadian oflieials and scien
tists assert that the infallible muskrat is
preparing for one of the coldest winters
on record. The muskrat has a better
reputation as a weather prophet than
any goose or part of a goose, or any
other poultry. It will be the safest to
goby the mu»krat in this climate.
Germany has been introducing
smokeless powder into ils armies, but
an English invention proposes to not
only do away with smoke, but all odor
of the powder. This new explosive is
called cordite. The experiments show
that it is to be the explosive of the fut
ure, both for small arms and artillery;
provided, of course, that some Ameri
can does not strike upon something still
better.
Pbeachkb Thomas in Chlcatro thinks
the devil is a relic of a superstitious and
unintelligent age, and the St. Paul pul
pit where he discoursed when here as
serted yesterday that no infidel would
lie damned for his opinions, but his
trouble, if any. would come from being
a bad man. Is Bob bransoLL a good
man, and will he find repose in Ar.K.v
ham?s bosom?
Tui: Hartford Times, the leading
Democratic paper in Connecticut, op
posed tne election reform bill now in
operation in that state, but it says it is a
complete success and not open to the
objections it had urged. It does not
impede voting, and gives every man a
chance to vote to suit himself, and not
some one else. It is evidently a retorra.
A performing kkar drew all the
crowd the other day from a Republican
meeting in Virginia where Gen. Ma
hone and Julius Burrows, the Mich
igan spellbinder, were the speakers.
The bear was no doubt a Democrat, and
wanted to crush out free speech. A
congressional committee should investi
gate the outrage.
Qlay is believed to be really working
for Washington for the world's fair,
while looking pleasantly at times toward
Chicago. At the federal capital it would
be lamely under Republican auspices,
and some party dividends might be had.
Chicago and New York are the leading
Democratic cities.
Home one lias invented an attach
roent to the telephone called a tele
srraphophonc for short, which keeps a
record of telephone calls. It will en
able a party called np, who loses the
connection or is not in, to find out who
wanted him. This will relieve him of
a good deal of annoyance.
As OYOTBB scare over the ravagC3 of
the starfish is perhaps preliminary to a
corner or advance in prices. A con
gressional committee has been watching
this enemy of the popular fish, but It is
feared that an act of congress will not
exterminate it.
The papers comment upon it as some
thing of a new departure in putting
Skth Low, the young business man
and ex-mayor of Brooklyn, in the presi
dency of Columbia college. He is capa
ble and scholarly, and a man of pro
gressive ideas, as shown by being a tar
iff reformer, and this is the most sig
niiicant feature. The colleges and men
of culture- seem to be gettinsr right on
the commercial and industrial lines.
Protectionists may draw upon their
subsidized pockets to endow collegiate
chairs to inculcate their narrow ideas
in political economy, but the drift 1a
past them into the more liberal and In
viimg arenas. A clerical title is not es
sential to the best management of a
great literary institution.
Tin: effort of those Republican manu
facturers in New England to have iron
ore, pig iron, coal and coke placed on
the free list aggravates some of those
who still stand on the Republican plat
form. One of them indignantly ejacu
lates: "If those New England iron and
steel manufacturers are not out-ann-out
free trade theorists in everything, they
are more fools than hogs, if that is
possible. They should be well aware
that the break in protection they ask
for will upset the whole protective sys
tem." No doubt it would, and the com
mercial and industrial interests would
then have broader fields.
It tjskd to worry some people who
had peculiar notions because Mr.
GucVKLAJni would have wine on the
table for guests who were always ac
customed to it. It has not been noted
that that they have indulged in dispar
aging grimaces over the "gorgeous
bowls of Dirndl" that were so conspic
uous at the banquet at the White house
to the Pan-American congress. It was
rich and strong, and the president did
not manifest any singularity in his
treatment of the enlivening element.
But probably a more exemplary regi
men is exacted of Democrats.
The Argentine Bepnblic has been se
curing a good deal of Europeau emigra
tion of late by its special inducements,
but it has ono drawback— it has the
largest debt, for its numbers, of any
nation in the world. This is due to ex
travagance and bad management. There
has been an immense amount of specu
lation and looseness in financial mat
ters. Gold is about as much a stranger
to the currency of the country as it was
to the government issues in this coun
try at a dismal period of the war. Tlie
population is about as large as that of
New York state.
In the eleven months ending with
September this country exported beef.
bos and dairy products amounting to
191,214,000, an increase of 50.000.000
over the same time the year previous.
The dairy products sent aiiroad the last
five months were nearly ?8.(M)!i.OOO. The
farmers evidently do have some interest
in prices abroad.
Thomas Reed, the Maine candidate
for speaker of the house, figures up
ninety-two votes in the caucus, a good
majority of 168. McKtSLKT has about
the same number, and the other two

good many votes. The Ohio man is the
favorite in the West.

STATE SENTIMENT.
All for the Old Editor.
West Duluth Sun.
Several of the editors in the state are
in tavor of Maj. Newson for governor
ou the Republican ticket. The very
same editors, in fact, all of the editors
in this state, signed a petition and sent
it to Blame, Harrison & Co., requesting
them to give the old editor a consular
position. It was put in the waste paper
basket, because Harrison had to find
positions for all his relatives and Blame
had to follow suit. Now Maj. Newson
had earned recognition from the Repub
lican party.
Justice to McGill.
Todd Argus.
This question of justice to McGill Is
quite an ancient chestnut. The party
owes him nothing, and the people owe
him nothing. He was chosen chief ex
ecutive of the state, and served his time.
If the party saw fit to choose another
man after his term had expired there
was no injustice done McGill in doing
so. That he would accept the nomina
tion if offered him is not to be doubted,
but as to his getting the offer there is
considerable doubt.
Fishing for Indians.

A new ami interesting feature in Min

Indian voters when they assume their
rights of citizenship by accepting the

adults iv South Dakota, and as many in
this state who will soon be voters.
Their vote will douotless be a unit; and
in the gubernatorial contest may be the
deciding factor. Now, who can say but

A few of the Republican papers of

HILL IS A HUMMER,
New York's Governor Talks
About His Trip to the
South,
Pats the Southrons on the
Back for Bravery and Hos
pitality,
Says Kind Words About the
Probabilities of a Pros
perous Future,
And Will Expect All Their
Votes in the Election
of 1892.
Albany. N. T., Oct. 21.— Gov. Hill
was interviewed to-day upon the sub
ject of his trip to Atlanta. Ga., and his
impressions of the South. The governor
said he had never been further South
than North Carolina before, and al
though he had heard and read much
about the prosperity of the region, what
ho saw was in the nature of a revelation
to him. He was particularly struck
with the widespread feeling of hopeful
ness which he saw everywhere.
"The people of the South," con
tinued the governor, "not only
the rising generation, but also these, the
greater part of whose life was passed
under the conditions existing before the
war, seemed to be thoroughly recon
ciled to the new conditions, and to be
enteritis enthusiastically into business
and manufacturing enterprises. If
there is any longer any prejudice
asainst the importation of Northern
capital and brains, I did not observe it.
There is naturally a feeline of aversion
to those Northerners whose chief pur
pose in the South is to stir
race prejudices, by political man
ipulation, but 1 am sure, from what I
saw and heard, that all who take up
residence in the South with the sincere
motive of helping to develop its indus
tries and sharing its prosperity will re
ceive a hearty welcome. The resources
of the South are certainly illimitable,
and the be st feature is that the South is
thoroughly conscious of them. The
growth of cotton mills, the development
of the iron mines and the increasing
NETWORK OF RAILWAYS
with which Mr. John 11. In man had so
much to do. all surprised and interested
me exceedingly. The race question is
h serious one, but I am inclined to think
it is working itself well. With the
growth of industries there is an increas
ing demand for labor. The white pop
ulation thus far has furnished most of
the employes in the mills and factories,
but this is limited in number, and with
the spread of manufactories, negro la
bor will be in demand. It is not
to be expected, in the present condition
of things, that the two races will work
side by side with entire absence of fric
tion, but there are many influences at
work to diminish the danger of clashing
between the black and white. I saw
the black men and white men laying
bricks and doing carpentry side by side,
and working together on plantations,
and I shall not be surprised to see them
in a few years employed together upon
work which requires more skill
and intelligence. The Southern peo
ple are even more hospitable than
1 thought they were. Nothing could |
have exceeded the cordiality and warmth
of our reception in everyplace where we
stopped. Somehow the people practice
the art of entertaining in a neater de
cree than the people of the North*.
There is no coldness or stiffness about
their manner, and they have a delight
ful faculty of making a stranger feel
perfectly at home, and they are a race
of orators. I have not listened to so
much eloquence in a long time as I
heard in our few days' experience
down there." "What are your im
pressions, governor, as to the loyalty of
the South?" "There is no doubt of"
THE SOOTH'S LOYALTY
to the Union. The people would not
restore slavery if they could. All ref
erences to the IT. lion were loudly ap
pbtnrted, and the American flag wa-i un
furled everywhere. I saw no evidences
of attachment for the old order of
things, and I did notice, what to me was
both welcome and significant, a general
effort to avoid the expression ot any
sentiments which might give offense to
Northerners. With such a spirit taking
possession of both the North and South,
it cannot be long before every vestige
of sectional feeling is erased. In all our
receptions, the only thing I saw which,
even by a stretch of imagination could
be considered as suggesting the Con
federacy, was the six grey horses which
carried us to the exposition grounds at
Atlanta, and I am surprised that some
of our Northern newspapers which seem
to have forgotten that the war is over
did not profess to see in this a sure sign
that the South still has designs upon the
Union. What I gathered from talking
with Southerners I met was that the
Soata wants to be let alone. She wants
encouragement and assistance from
lx>th the capital and the business ability
of the North, but she does not want to
be treated as a political dependency,
and she does want to be allowed to man
age her local affairs according to her
own ideas. Her people are brave, gen
erous and ambitions, and I believe a
great and prosperous future is before
them."
SHOT BY A BLUECOAT.
Unprovoked Assault by a Xew
New York, Oct. 21.— tor the second
time within a week a police officer is
charged with shooting a citizen, and is
held to answer. Shortly before 11
o'clock to-night, Officer Patrick J.
Morris, who was on post, entered the
saloon at the corner of West and Al
bany streets, owned by John Campbell.
Officer Moody accompanied him. William
Campbell, the owner's brother, was in
the saloon, and had his overcoat on pre
paratory to closing:. In his overcoat
pocket he had a thirty-eight caliber re
volver. Morris struck his hand against
Campbell's side pocket, remarking as
he did so: "You had better put that
pistol behind the bar." "Why," said
Campell, "should I leave my revolver
here when I have a permit" to carry
one?" Then to justify his action he
showed a bag of money which
he bad just taken from behind
the bar, and was carrying to
his home. Officer Morris reiterated his
advice, when Campbell passed behind
the bar and placed the revolver on a
shelf. He was immediately followed
by Morris, who, calling his brother
officer to the end of the bar, put Camp
bell nominally under arrest, on a charge
of carrying concealed weapons. He
then walked to the other end of the bar
and taking the revolver from the re
ceptacle where it had been
placed, returned remarking: "1
will bill you dead." Repeat
ing his declaration he placed the
revolver to Campbell's right shoulder
and fir*-d, the ball entering just above
the collar bone and inflicting a serious,
if not an absolutely dangerous wound.
The officer claims the shooting wa3
done in self-defence, but if the testi
mony of the ten or twelve persons who
were in the bar room is to be taken,
there was not the slightest justification
for his assertion, Morris returned to
the station house and was held by his
superior officers to await the result of
the investigation into the shooting.

THIS BKAIn t'ANNFR.
How a Pensioner secured a R\g
Boodle.
Washington, Oct. 21. — An interest
ing case was before the treasury depart
ment Saturday. It related to a draft
recently submitted as a voucher for its
payment. Several months ago the uen
siou agent at San Francisco issued a
check in favor of a pensioner, but ne
glected to fill in the amount. The not
over scrupulous recipient, however, did
it for him, but instead of putting in the
proper amount, (about S18) filled it out
for something over 91,300. Jle presented
it at a bank in Nevada, properly en
dorsed and as there was apparently
nothing: wrong ab^tut it, received
payment to its face value. In
the regular course of busi
ness, the bank transmitted the
check to Wells, Fareo <& Co., its San
Francisco correspondents, for collec
tion. It was then presented to the as
sistant treasurer and that officer paid it
on the strength of the indorsement of
Wells, Fargo & Co. The fraudulent
character of the cheek was discovered
soon after aiul the assistant treasurer
made demand upon Wells, f'argo & Co.,
for repayment of the money in axcess of
the real value ot the cheek. They de
nied all responsibility in the tranaction,
and refused to comply with the de
mand. Subsequently a treasury draft
in favor of \Vell9, Fargo ft Co., for an
amount mucli greater than was involved
in the other transaction came into the
assistant treasurer's possession and in
making payment upon it, he deducted
the amount of overpayment on the pen
sion check. Wells, Fargo <fc Co. natur
ally objected to this, and having unsuc
cessfully tried all other means of com
pelling the assistant treasurer to deliver
to them the full amount of the draft, at
last instituted suit for its recovery.
Tliis suit is now pending, and applica
tion was made to the treasury depart
ment for the original draft for use as
evidence on the trial. After some de
liberation, the department concluded to
grant the application, and yesterday the
u raft was mailed to the assistant treas
urer, with instructions to insure its safe
return to the department opon the con
clusion ot the trial. Nothing is known
as to the whereabouts of the dishonest
pensioner. _
AFRICANS AROUSED.
They May Some Time Get Angry
to a. Decree.
Washington. Oct. 21.— Rev. W. B.
Johnson, colored, of the Second Baptist
church, preached a sermon here yester
day in which he likened the negro to
Samson, and told the members of his
race to secure homes in the South and
West and prepare to stay in them, even
if every inch of land must be defended
with Winchester rifles. The neirro was
learning the lesson of organization from
the socialist and the irishman, and
twenty years from now would not be
the docile being of to-day. "The negro,"
he concluded, "has been building for
the whites long enough. It is time to
build for himself. He cannot be exter
minated or intimidated. He is the
blood and bones of the nation, and it
undisturbed will do no harm, but if
stirred may grasp the pillars of our civ
ilization, ami. like Samson of old, in his
death null down the temple of liberty."
Jlev. George W. Lee, also colored, of the
Fifth Baptist church, preached on
"Southern Outrages,'' and ail vised the
negroes to strike back when they were
assaulted, or their wives and daughters
wronged and insulted. The civil rights
bill, he said, iiad always proved a fail
ure, and the only thing the negro got
from either party was promises at elec
tion lime. It was useless to seek re
dress from congress, for two-thirds of
tliLin were sinners, ana the other third
drunkards.
DUIjUTH'S TBMPIiS OPERA
Opened With an Attendance of
Over 1,200.
K:ial to tlio OloDe.
ui.lth, Minn., Oct. 21.— That the
great new dramatic temple is Dulnth's
pride, found sufficient assurance
in the throng that gathered this
evening to participate in it's great
"first night." The scenes on the- oc
casion were impressive enough, and if
additional evidence were needed that
the temple is a success and really a
Kit amusement palace the occasion
ai ul y supplied it. From the avenue
massive pile, illuminated by nearly
thousand incandescent lights,
lented a picture few are per
mitted to see. But inside the beau
tiful temple, its gorgeous colors and
brilliant lights; its beautiful scenery;
the sweet strains of orchestral music;
Miss Coghlan playimr as though in
spired, and her support following nobly
her brilliant lead. Indeed, it was an
event in the dramatic history of the
Northwest which will not soon bo for
gotten. The walls, the ceilings, the
draperies, the golden pillars, the
rich, warm coloring of the whole
interior are suggestive of comfort.
The harmonious shades rest the eye and
please the senses. Whether you sit in
the Darquette circle, or in the very top
most row of the second gallery, the
effect is one which delights. In every
respect the house is a success. The
opening night was eminently a success, j
and the Temple opera, with all its
excellence of arrangement and
beauty of form and decoration, |
has with It the good will of the
public. The attendance was 1.200. ]
Judge Steams made a short speech in

watch and chain stolen. In his pockets
he had $57 in cash which the robbers
didn't get. Police Surgeon Mateham

Strike on the Nashville.
Eva>'3Ville, Ind., Oct. 21.— What is
feared may yet prove to be the begin
ning of a general strike on the Louis
ville & Nashville and Mackey system of
railroads centering here, was in
auKuratcd in the Louisville & Nash
vilio freight yards in this city this
afternoon. The switchmen, when they
struck had succeeded in blockading the
transfer track which runs through the
city with loaded freight cars, extending
from one end of the city to the other. |
The strike to-day is confined to the
Louisville & Nashville employes only,
but they understood to-night that the
Mackey system switchmen had promised

But That Didn't Deter From Tak
ing Another.
Washikgtok, Oct. 2L— ln a Wash
ington paper yesterday morning ap
peared a marriage notice of Dr. James
A. Frazer and Lillie G. Thorn. Th«
announcement was seen by Edward R.
D. Mayue. an uncle of Dr. Frazer, who
immediately sent word to the paper
that Dr. raz( * could not have married
Miss Thorn;- legally, as he was a mar
ried man. Mr. Mayne'g explanation of
the matter is in substance as follows:
In 1853. Frazer. while attending a medi
cal collar? at Halifax, was married to
Edith Neal. daughter of W. 11. Neal, a
merchant, who was at that time wealthy,
but who has since failed. Dr. and Mrs.
Frazer lived for a while at Char
lottetown, P. E. 1., and later
came to Washington to live.
After a brief residence here they moved
to Ciiaptico, Md. Wore than a year ago
Mrs. Frazer returned to her home at
Halifax, taking with her the two chil
dren. Mr. Mayne says she was per
i suaded to go because the climate did not
agree with her. He says : Iso that her
husband has never sent her any money
since. A few days ago Mr. Mayne re
j ceived from Mrs. Frazer a letter written
by her husband Oct. 12. suggesting di
vorce. She refused to consent to a di
vorce. Miss Thorn was a clerk in the
I census office. Her mother, who is em
ployed in the agricultural department,
put the marriage notice in the paper.
She says Dr. Frazer claimed to havo
| been divorced. He and her daughter
went to Baltimore Wednesday, and her
daughter telegraphed that evening thai
they had been married and were on
their way to London, Ont.. to visit Dr.
| Frazer's mother. The affair has created
a sensation here.
