CITY ENGINEER sEWALL.

City Engineer Sewall has long been i'm
pressed with the idea that he possesses a
monopoly of scientific knowledge in general,
and of civil engineering in particular.
Asked for the proofs, they are not at hand.
Mr.. Sewall, within few days past, has found
time from his arduous labors to inaugurate
war upon newspapers, and
what he is pleased to call sslocals
and reporters Mr.. Sewall is
laboring under great mistake SO far as our
information extends. Neither locals, re-
porters, nor a daily paper have troubled
themselves to any great extent about MIR.
Sewall. Mr.. Sewall is a subject, very little
of which produces a surfeit and nausea.
When there was movement to reduce
city and county salaries, we gently suggested
proportionate reduction in the city en-
gineer's Office, the salary of which was about
to be increased beyond all proper
limits. Need we add that this was done.
Hence these tears. Mr.. Sewall has worked
himself into an unnecessary passion. His
extraordinary burst of profanity will be very
apt to react on Mr.. Sewall's somewhat con-
tracted diaphragm.
Seriously, we would like to know what Mr..
Sewan has ever done for the city? He has
been city engineer several times, and yet
according to his own account, the grades
sewers. and SO on, are in 8
terrible condition, and Mr.. Sewall knows
1i{f1o ah0,% %hn,,o VIZ %ol/o 4~>c
also, that Mr.. SewalI has illustrated every
position he ever held by his most striking
characteristic, namely, extreme mulishness
This has cost him several lucrative positions
and may cost him his office as city engineer

gineer in St. Paul.

GEN" ANDERSON, md FORTY ONE
D4YS INJlIL.


Do the people know "Gen." Anderson?
Does he come from the East, the West, the
North, or South? Who is this jail-bird,
convicted forger, and graduate of the gam
blers' hell /? Who is this scoundrel. having
first robbed the people of the United States
of the right of suffrage, now wailing 50 pitt
fully from a Jail with the cry of forty
one days in jail?''
An attempt has been made to convert
Anderson into Republican martyr. The
effort will succeed when Benedict Arnold
shall become in history patriot and a
saint. No; Anderson is too we'll known.
Give him all titles, however, clothe him with
mercy, martyr him in the robes of perse-
cuted saint, extend to him the benefit of
clergy and exalt him as the saviour of HAYES
and of the Republican party, but can the
people afford to rest their claims to self-gov-
eminent on the unpublished crime of a con-
victed forger and perjurer?
Will the people exalt into martyrdom and
enroll among the heroes of freedom, with
Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Hancock,
and all the noble names of our history, a
swindling rogue, who began life by cheating
at cards, and crowned it with robbing the
people of the right to choose the Chief Mag
istrate Of the nation?
Who, we repeat, is Anderson. with whom
good people are asked to sympathize?
de was first known as "Keno''
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1878-03-16

Anderson, from the game he played, was
kicked out of the company of gamblers for
cheating, outlawed from all respectable 80
ciety, stole $4,000 from the Republican
party the first time he was trusted, melted
negro instructions, stuffed ballot boxes,
plundered and ruined Louisiana, and, as an
infamous climax, stole the chair of
Washington. These are facts we'll known.
Dare Rutherford B. Hayes touch this
convicted felon? AS matter of justice,
''Keno" Anderson should rot in Jail. His
name should be blasted and burned out of
the memory Of man by the brand of treason.
AS matter of mercy, Gov.fNicolls may
pardon him, and welcome from us. But the
hand reaching from the high Office of Presi-
dent to defend or to protect State felon,
and to cover, with the shield of mighty
people. the sneaking thief of the ballot box,
should fall paralyzed By the lightning of
civil liberty.

THE ST-4TE lUDITOR and THE Ian,
The State Auditor has no authority to is
sue a warrant for money on the State Treas
ury against a fund not in existence. He can
not draw on fraud; he cannot draw on
anything except money set apart by the Leg
islature to meet his warrant. The
Auditor is all accountant. the
States chief clerk, entrusted with
special duties and liabilities. He has no au-
thority, no discretion, no unlimited powers.
We have had one impeachment of Treas
urer, and one criminal prosecution of an
Auditor of Minnesota who narrowly escaped.
We hope that this will never be repeated.
Under the Constitution, the State Auditor
can draw no warrants for money. Mr..
Merrill can put this in his pipe and smoke
it. He can not flood the State with
his promises that the State will pay. When
he puts upon the streets the public pledges
of Minnesota to be discounted at IS cents
on the dollar, it will be time for Daniel Mer-
rill e. Co. to leave.
We have no idea that Auditor Whitcomh
has dreamed or thought of such a monstrous
fraud. He is supposed to know well the
duties and obligations of his Office, and
we trust that, for his own sake, and for the
honor of the State, he will protect the Treas
ury against the worst and most irresponsible
raid upon the public funds and the school
fund yet attempted in the history of the
State; that he will be firm as Gibraltar. 40
far as he can, to arrest the attack of text
book spectators on a national legacy be-
queathed to be held sacred forever.

THE NEW ELECTION Law,

This is an act purporting to provide for
elections, and the registration of electors in
incorporated cities of over 10000 inhabit-
ants. It is intended particularly for St.
Paul and Minneapolis. Taken altogether it
is high-handed outrage, an expensive, alb
surd and complicated piece of ignorance.
1t is Objectionable in all its provisions and in
every feature, undertaking to prescribe the
form of ballot, the color of the paper, how
names shall be printed. The bill to have
been consistent should have proceeded fur
Their and provided how the citizen should
vote.
AS we have before said, section eight is
the cream of this iniquitous measure. This
is the morsel
Sec. s. The ballot shall be folded by the yot.
er and delivered to one of the Judges of cleo
ton, who shall forthwith lay the same on the
top of the ballot box, at the same time in an
audible voice proclaim the name of the person
offering to vote to the board, and if the Judges
be satisfied, according to the evidence as herein
described, that the person Offering the vote is a
legal voter, the clerks Of election shall enter
the name of the voter and his number under
the proper heading in the poll book, and the
Judges shall endorse on the back of the ticket
offered the number corresponding with the
number of the voter on the poll book, and
shall Immediately put the ticket into the bal
lot box.
Let every one read it. The secresy of the
ballot is entirely destroyed by this section.
1t compels the voter, virtually, to disclose
his vote to the judges. Without secresy,
there is no ballot. The sole purpose of the
whole section is to discover the name of the
voter of each particular ballot. This is in
violation of the constitution. and destruct-
i've of the sanctity of elections.
1t violates section six, article two, OF
the constitution, declaring: Cali elections
shall be by ballot, except for such town Off
GERS as may be directed by law to be other
wise chosen" It is destructive of all fair
ness in elections, because it places every
voter in the power of the judges.

That organ of all that is dishonest and
reviler of ill that is good do we need to say
we allude to the Pioneer, Press, can con-
ceive of no higher motive for The GLOBES
criticism of Mr.. Sewall, than the desire to
aid some contractor. AS matter of fact.
The GLOBE never heard contractor COM
plain of Mr.. Sewall save publicly, before the
Board of Public Works, and the only per-
sons who have spoken to the editor of The
GLOBE in reference to the City Engineer,
have been his friends, who spoke in his be-
half. No contractor has in any manner re-
quested criticism of Mr.. Sewall, and the COM
ments of The GLOBE have been in the inter-
est of no one save the public at large. From
what we learn we suppose Mr.. Sewall will
be reelected city engineer to-day, but be-
cause that is, and probably has been, fore
gone conclusion from the beginning, it is no
reason why just criticism should be with
held.

Glencoe Register

In one respect this spring is not unlike
that of 1867. Though several weeks earlier,
the condition of the roads are really no worse
than they were that spring, and -notwith-
standing the grasshopper devastations the
condition of the people is much better than
1t was then. If our people cannot get away
from home for the mud blockade that shuts
them in, there is now an abundance for
both man and beast to eat. We were not as
fortunately situated in '67. That spring
found Glencoe mud-bound without one
weeks supply of food on hand for the
few people that we're then here, and
for weeks it was next to impossible to
get through from Carver with team
and empty wagon, to say nothing of having
a. load. We remember that some time during
the latter part of March, before the frost
was fairly out of the ground, we had oc-
casion to go to st. Paul, Gt then requiring
two days to get through.) We sent back
from Carver by stage five sacks of -four.
When we returned, the latter part of the
week, our good wife had loaned out to the
neighbors, who we're entirely out of flour, all
but half sack. Some families did not
taste bread of any kind for several days, for
the reason that -four and meal could not be
had for love nor money, and meats Of all
kinds were about as scarce. Those were the
times that tried mems faith in the new
country

Il DIRECT, CONFL1cT.
Section two of the supplementary text
book law reads:

Section two of the supplementary text
book law reads:
Upon the receipt by any county treasurer
from the county auditor of his county of any
such statement as is mentioned in the
last preceding section it shall be the
duty of such county treasurer to
retain the total sum specified therein out of any
moneys belonging or payable to such school
district, arising from taxation, then in his
hands or which thereafter may come into his
hands. 8
The new tax law expressly forbids this
retention Of funds for Mr.. Merrill's benefit,
by the following section:
Sec. g.. The county treasurer shall, imme-
dlately after each settlement in February May
and September, pay over to the treasurer Of
State or of any municipal corporation, or orga-
nized township, or other body polite, on the
order of the proper officers all n,oneuS
received BY him arising from
to the State, or to such municipal corporation,
organized township or school district. and de-
liver up all orders and other evidences of in
debtedness of such municipal corporation or
other body polite, taking duplicate receipts
therefor, one Of which shall be filed in the
office of the county auditor.
If there is any question relative to which
section is i'll force, it will be readily settled
by the fact that the tax bill was approved
after the text book bill, and consequently
became law last. The tax law contains
the following concluding section, which re-
peals section two of the text book law, quot
ed above, as it is 'sinconsistent''
Sec. 121. Chapter 70 of the general laws of
1877, and all other acts and parts of acts incon-
sistent with this act, are hereby repealed,
&c.
Mr.. Merrill will be obliged to accept the
$5O 600 so generously rendered him by his
newspaper organs. This will settle all COM
plications, and the newspapers will not feel
such little sum.

SAYINGS BANK PANIC.

Wild Rush Of Reared DepOsitors on the
Boston Institutional Cincinnati Con
Germ Closes its Doors.
Boston, March 15.-The run on the Boston
five cent savings bank, begun yesterday, has
developed into general panic. School
street, where the bank is located, has been
blockaded by crowd to-day, and the excite
element has teen intense. The committee
examining the securities state that after de-
Quoting all the depreciation which the assets,
embracing stock, bonds, &C., have suffered,
and allowing $157 900 with which to pay the
interest falling due the first of April, the
bank will still have surplus of up
ward of $429,OOO. The uneasiness has
spread to the Franklin bank in Boyleston
street, one of the strongest savings institu-
tons in the country. The managers of the
Franklin have limited the amount paid to
depositors on demand to twenty-five dollars,
and sixty days notice is required for all sums
over that amount. This action reduces to
three the number of banks in Boston paying
in full on demand. An unusually large
number of depositors in the Provident In
stltutlon for savings are partaking of the
general scare, and applied for and obtained
their money to-day, and the same is true of
the Suffolk, although these banks are as far
as known solvent to the last degree.
SOUND BUT SUSPENDED.
CINCINNATI, Ohio March 15.-The exam
liners appointed by Judge Burnett to investi-
gate the affairs of the Cincinnati savings
bank, which recently suspended, report to-day
that the assets are $48O,O0O and the liabili-
ties $437, 900. The examiners declare that
affairs in the bank have been prudently
managed and that the security on hand for
payment of obligations is more than ample.
