A FELLOW at the East, John Hope Fox by
name, with more enterprise" than decency,
has been struck with the brilliant idea of en-
gaging Mrs. Tilton to appear on the lecture
platform. He has seriously offered her 800
per lecture, besides expenses for herself,
mother and one servant. His idea is to ex-
hibit Mrs. Tilton through the country from
Maine to California. and he says that he is
very sanguine that she will accept his offer.
The proposition is an insult to the morals of
the community. Already there are moral
lepers enough who are making the tour of
the country, exhibiting their sores for pal
try consideration. It is fast becoming q
crime to be virtuous. ViceTand profigacy
will always be attractive as long as such
honors are paid by presumably respectable
people to the Beechers, the Tiltons, the
Woodhulls and the Glendennings of the
country.

IT is very apparent that if the Liberals in
England have rope enough they will succeed
in hanging themselves. A ridiculously alb
surd proposition for the impeachment of
Earl Beaconsfeld was introduced in the
British commons on Thursday by an ex-
treme Turkophile named Cowen. 1t will
probably be laughed down, for no consider
able party will be found suicidal enough to
entertain the proposition for a moment.

SAN Francisco, July ga Baker City dis
patch says: A courier from Gen. Howard re-
ports the Bannocks and Piutes have separated.
The former are fleeing the country, while the
latter are supposed to be making for their
agency for the purpose of surrendering. Tive
companies of the Eighth infantry passed
through this city en- route to the overland road
beyond Boise. which is now threatened by
hostile Bannocks returning to Camas Prairie,

BEEcHER,s TOUR n FAILURE.


It gives us pleasure to announce that the
present Beecherian lecture tour is q lament-
able pecuniary failure. Small or moderate
audiences greet him everywhere, and though
he has contract which gives him his money,
every association which employs him loses
money. It is wicked in these impoverished
times to pay any man six hundred dollars a
night for his services, and it is an imposition
to ask people to contribute such sum
for any one. 1t is double
imposition to ask it for such man
as Beecher. On local grounds we desire to
see the st. Paul library association prosper,
but when it brings such man as Beecher
to the front we are glad o'see it lose money,
as it did last night. The position of the
GLOBE is that if Mr.. Beecher chooses to go
about the country upon his own hook, well
and good. He is then upon his own merits.
But it is time that library associations or
other organizations learn that the neral
sense of a community cannot be disregarded
with impunity. Mr.. Beecher has done
more to demoralize and bring into disrepute
the cause of Christianity than any other
man living. He has. done this, not SO much
from the personal power which he possesses,
but because many churches and protested
Christians have earnestly championed his
cause. It would have been great stride
for Christianity to have driven him from
the pulpit, but as that was not
done, the public have the power
to drive him from the rostrum,
by rendering it Improbable for him to ap-
pear. This is being rapidly accomplished,
and we predict that this is not only the last
time that he can ever make an extortionate
trip through the country, but it is also the
last time that he can ever secure contract
to lecture. Hereafter he will have to travel
on his merits, the same as circus, a minstrel
show, or a Black Crook entertainment.
The guilt or innocence of the man it is un-
necessary to discuss. The general public
has already formed its conclusions and the
vest majority vote guilty. They vote
this not on the testimony of others but upon
his own letters and admissions. Conceding
that many good persons may not be pos
sessed of minds sufficiently logical
to reach this conclusion, the question never
theless arises why they should wish to harm
the cause of morality and religion by spread
ing the Brooklyn nastiness throughout the
country. It is an irreparable damage to the
cause of Christ to invite Beecher to occupy a
pulpit in Minneapolis tomorrow, and those
who were instrumental in securing such a
result deserve the severest possible rebuke.

GRANT, according to European CORE
spondent, does not entertain as poor an
opinion of Ben Butler as soldier as is gen
orally attributed to him. He lays his (But-
ler's) i'll success to the want of ability among
his subordinates, and regrets that he ever
said anything to hurt the feelings of Butler.
This is doing the handsome. Now, Ben,

after all we are not so distant from the mil
lennium as appearances have indicated.

GARFIELD said on Thursday that he
thought Packard was honestly elected Gov
ernor of Louisiana, but when pressed for his
conclusions in view of the final installation
of Governor Nichols, he refused to commit
himself. He is evidently of the opinion that
Hayes perpetrated an outrage by upholding
Nichols. but fears to place himself on
record. His manner of lodging the ques-
tions put to him proves that he is an expert
in that sort of business. He knows that the
conclusion is inevitable that if Packard was
not elected neither was Hayes. ~

GAS the twig is bent, SO is the tree in

newspaper, who was educated for the minis
try, says editors should have vaca-
ton as we'll as other people, and therefore
announces suspension of publication till
his return from a fishing tour. His readers
are thus swindled out of their religious pab-
ulum during his vacation with an effrontery
Characteristic of the cloth. Fortunately for
the community, few editors have received a

II RECOGNIZE the right OF Nichols to
make bargain for his place." said Gen.
Butler on Thursday, s'as much as Sir Henry
Howe had to bride Arnold, but it is Arnold
l am AFTER Hiscock construed the remark
as an attack upon the de .facto President,
and objected to it without evidence to sup
port it. He evidently forgot the testimony
of William E. Chandler in which the ante
inaugural bargain between Nichols and Ar
mold Hayes was fully proven. From present
appearances it is quite probable that Butler
will catch the person he is after.

THE CITY YEXPENDITURRs.- 1t is time the
people of this city were awakened to their
interests. There is evidently deliberate
purpose in the City Council, arrived at
by party caucus, to plunge the city into
greater indebtedness and thus further in
crease the city taxes.
No one can witAess the course pursued
by the Council under the dictation of Mr..
Gallagher and come to any other conclu-
sion. 1t was for this purpose Republi-
cans in the Council after holding caucus
determined not to give the cleaning of the
streets out by contrdct ; and the ilnmedi-
ate increase of the rate of taxation on
property.
If there is any doubt on this matter we
ask the reader to go to one of the scenes
OF operation, on East Eleventh street, neal
Church, and witness the scandalous man.
ner in which the city's money is being
wasted. During yesterday there were SC
many carts and men employed in filling
up the old "city quarry" that, as it was
said by one who had just come from the
place, they were "treading on each Others
toes" another man, Republican, said
there were "three hundred men and
CARTS" that it was terrible thing il
those in power were to use the citizen:
money at this rate to elect Mayor.
