HON. rs 1T WITH THE HOSPITlL FOE
INSANE.

We had hoped, amid the avalanche of
charges against Insane Hospital manage
ment, all over the country, that the good
name OF Minnesota would escape. Every
year; for many years past, has witnessed dis
closures embracing every species of cruelty,
all kinds of maltreatment from
starvation to murder, conspiracies
and collisions to secure false Imprisonment,
and the unnatural acts of relatives to rid
themselves of supporting imbecile and needy
members of their family. The history of
these things are blacker than he'll was ever
painted.
Only few days ago, a young lady en-
titled to large estate was rescued from
Bloomingdale, in New York, where she had
been imprisoned for seven years. bv
her Unnatural sister, aided and abetted
by the examining doctors and by the keepers
OF the mad-house. Judge Brady pronounced
the woman perfectly sane. This was the
case of Susan Dickie, whose name has be-
come familiar to every one.
we have no means of knowing the truth
or falsity of the charges sent to the Legisla-
ture. They are made by former employees,
and dissatisfied parties, but they are such
as to justify a most thorough investigation,
which the officers themselves will doubtless
demand. The State has been more than
generous to this public. charity. It has cost
ana IS costing vast amount of money, but
the hospital has always been crowded beyond
Its capacity and it has taxed the utmost
efforts OF the superintendent to care for the
unfortunate. We shall be glad for the sake
OF humanity and for the credit of the State
II the charges can be disproved but as
ugly, though unauthentic rumors have for
some time been af1oat, it is gratifying to have
an official and thorough examination ordered.

FX-REPUBLIC1N Pc
OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

VI oOClA t1dlCOLxNA.
Who does not remember Moses? Not
Moses the law-giver of Israel, but Moses, at
one time, governor of South Carolina, the
friend of Grant and the idol of the carpet
baggers. What an honorable fellow Moses
was, to be sure. Moses was luxurious in
dividual, fond of good living, and extrava-
CANT in style. It required considerable
money to support this sort of thing, and
Moses was altogether Indifferent as to the
source whence it came, or the means by
which obtained.
Moses rather preferred stealing to honesty,
being by nature thief. He consorted with
carper baggers, because they we're thieves
like himself, and between them, they robbed
and plundered the people of South Carolina,
until their condition became so deplorable as
to excite universal sympathy. During all
this time, Moses was defended and upheld
by the Republican politicians in Congress
and out of Congress. and by the radical
newspapers all over the country as a pure
patriot, loyal governor, as the defender of
the negroes and union men. In vain the
beggggared people appealed for relief, in vain
the Democratic and conservative press de-
nounced the scoundrel, in vain good men
everywhere demanded his removal. He was
sustained by Grant and the Republican party,
until his crimes became so outrageous that
the most conservative Republicans of the
State united with Democrats to elect Cham
berlain. Even after that, Moses had him
self declared judge of the Charleston dis
trict, and was supported by the radical poll
ticians and Christian statesmen But he
did not succeed:
This is in part the public record of the
robber Moses. Now what is the SEQUEL?
Who was right, the Democrats or Repub
licans? Where is Moses now? A few weeks
ago he stole his wife's jewels, fed to New
York, was followed there by detective
police officer, and arrested for stealing from
his own wife. Is it necessary to add word?
We place this on record that it may be read
and studied by Republican politicians. Muir
der will out. Hypocrisy can not always win.
and one by one, the former idols of the Re
publican party fall to pieces in their own
rottenness.

JUDGE PAGE friends are making most
serious mistake in endeavoring to prevent
his trial by the Senate. If he is martyr,
he should rejoice at an opportunity for a
fair and open acquittal If the people of
Mower county have been prosecuted as they
claim, they should have an opportunity to
make good their charges. A fair and
square trial giving both sides justice is what
the public at this stage of the proceedings
demand, and what both parties to the con-
troversy should unite in securing. No man
who has good case need fear fair trial.

The Washington correspondent Of the

The Washington correspondent Of the
Dispatch says:
Why Gov. Pennington, after only one most
acceptable term, plastered over with high
recommendations, should have been left out in
the cold, is mystery to civil service reformers
and why W. E. Howard, after six or eight years
in Congress, with half a million in his pocket
and 70 years on his head, should totter on his
staft to the frontier at Yankton is another mys-
terry; but so it u.s.
lie GLOBE has already explained this.

we notice, condemn Mr.. Brandt for exposing
the bribery of the school book ring. If they
were IN favor OF the corrupt use of money by
lobbyists their position would be entirely log
lcal They cannot believe Mr.. Brandt a cor
rupt man.
The argument will not bear the test The
GLOBE is frank to state that it does regard
Mr.. Brandt as corrupt man. If Liberty
Hall had approached him and sought to buy
his vote the situation would have been DIFF
ferent. Mr.. Hall did nothing of the
kind. He neither sought Brandt or at
tempted to buy his vote, but
Brandt = this honorable man asked
fellow member to introduce him, that he
might offer his vote for sale. No one but a
corrupt man would make such overtures,
and whatever opinion may be entertained of
the matter, no distortion can disguise the
fact that the disreputable Brandt advertised
himself for sale and invited q purchaser.
Not only this, he publicly announced on the
floor of the House that he had sold himself.
and proposed to carry out his
bargain in good faith. It was not
until his friends surrounded him
with arguments which, perhaps, amounted to
more than fifty dollars, that he was induced
to repudiate his sale.
If this does not stamp him as base, cor
rupt man, it would be difficult to determine
what more is necessary.
It is those who defend Brandt who apolo-
g1ze for bribery, not those who denounce
him.

THERE should be no unfair discrimina-
ton. There is no equity in making Liberty
Hall scapegoat, and allowing Brandt to
escape. Every day that Brandt is allowed
to retain his seat in the Legislature adds to
the disgrace brought upon the State.

EVENING SESSION.
TIE Fiashing Pririlege Restored,

The Senate has at last fully restored the
franking privilege and if the House concurs.
as 1t probably WILL the old plan will be fully
IN force again. The argument was that
under existing laws those engaged in the ex-
ecutlye department. here can transmit their
correspondence free Of postage, while Con
eressmen have to pay large sums for stamps:
that 1t has never been demonstrated that the
repeal of the franking privilege made any
reduction in the cost of transporting the
mails. Since the Thanking privilege was re-
pealed IN 1873, every session there has been
some bill restoring some feature of it. First
came stamps to the departments, then public
documents, and now correspondence of Con
gressmen. The provision adopted to-day,
although in effect a complete restoration of
the Thanking privilege for everything under
two ounces, is really only completion of
the work which has been cling on unnoticed
since the privilege was abolished.

ST. PAUL AND ST. LOUIS.

Two Through Trains Daily Between
r,o.a Cities--The First Train Started
Last Night.
Another vast enterprise, which will eventu-
ate largely in the development of this city and
the resources of this State, was inaugurated
Yesterday, the day of smashing. st. Paul this
morning may rightfully felicitate herself upon
the completion of another link in the vast
choir of railroad intercommunication of which
she is either the e,st,vpot or the terminus.
Some weeks ago The GLOBE exclusively an
nounced that the presence in st. Paul of GER
tain magnates of divers, Iowa and Wisconsin
perfected, whereby the lines they represented
could be brought into more intimate alliance
with those of this State. The contamination of
those arrangements was witnessed at 1926 last
night, when the first train of cars left st. Paul
direct for st. Louis and Kanas City, Missouri.
The railroads combined in this movement are
the Chicago Milwaukee & st. Paul Iowa division,
the Central Iowa, and the st. Louis, Kansas
City Il Northern
By the new route passengers go direct to
st. Louis or Kansas City without a single
change of cars, which travellers, whether exper-
fenced inexperienced, will heartily appre-
ciate. Nor is this the only advantage which
will accrue. The st. Louis Express, as the new
train is called, is daily train,
arriving at 7:05 a. M, and leaving at 1928 p M,
thus entirely obvating that most vexatious of
all delays, a Sunday lay-over,' which. is apt
to entrap the unwary traveller, and which. I'M
der certain circumstances, was unavoidable by
the old route to st. Louis by way of Chicago.
The morning train for st. Louis over this route
leaves at $50 a. m, Sunday excepted, and ar
rives at $50 p. m. These are conveniences
which, coupled with the fact that Pullman
drawing-room sleeping cars are hauled the en-
tire distance, will doubtless make the st. Louis
express one Of the most popular trains running
in and out of st. Paul.
