DEATH ofthe Devil.
duluth Tribune.l

Some weeks ago, the Tribune published
pithy little poem entitled the Death of the
Devil. This poem was read one evening by
one of our subscribers at Grand Marais to
one or two Indians who were present. They
had been duly informed by the missionaries
as to who the Devil is, and they were greatly
interested to hear of the old fellows death.
They went off and told others that ssthe
Duluth News Spreader," as they called it,
had an account of the death of the devil, and
straightway many of the 'braves" came into
the village to learn the particulars of the
death of the being whom they had been led
to believe had instigated the white man to
rob them of their hunting grounds and treat
them SO unkindly, and they were sorry to
learn that his Satanic Majesty had simply
been killed by our poet, and that he is still,
if the superstitious bigots are to be believed,
as Industrious, frisky and wicked as ever.

ASKING FOR A PARDON
Ind Then Telling the Governor Not to
Grant 1t.

Ind Thc'. Telling the Governor Not to
Grant 1t.
To the Editor of The GLOBE.
The writer having frequently been the sub
ject of unjust criticism and unreasonable
persecution, desires to make the following
statement, for the purpose of showing how
far and how persistently this crusade is fol-
lowed up. Last week prisoner in the
county Jail solicited my services for the pur-
pose of obtaining pardon for him. AS l
had acted as counsel in his trouble, I thought
it my duty to answer his request. Accord
ingly drew up petition, and presented the
same to G. D. O'Brien,, who was county at
torney at the time of his conviction. He
signed the same, and said he did so very
willingly. l then went to the sheriff, MI.
Becht. He at first refused to sign the petit
| ton, but subsequently gave fattering note
of recommendation to the governor that the
petition be granted, Mr.. Becht himself CIV
ing the unfortunate prisoner an excellent
character, and has, for nearly the whole time
of his imprisonment, thought so much of
him as to make him a sort of body servant,
keeping him constantly employed, and Civ
ing him reputation for honest industry.
| The petition in due time was presented to
the Governor. Mr.. Becht being aware of
that fact, remembered he had an appoint
ment with the Governor, and what took place
was revealed to the writer this (Tuesday)
morning. The Governor refused to grant
the pardon, giving as reason that upon
inquiry he was informed of circumstances
that induced him not to grant the pardon
The secret of the refusal is simply this Mr..
Becht, finding that the writer was requested
by the prisoner to intercede for
him, took exception, and Immediately
told the petitioner that he had no business
to employ him, and for that, among other
selfish reasons, he sought the Governor, and
having the pardon denied. The note of
recommendation given by Mr.. Becht is on
file in the Governors Office. It is an unpar-
donable act. First giving the poor fellow an
excellent reputation in writing to the
Governor, and then secretly de-
stroying it by a verbal statement,
and for what? Simply for the
reason that the petitioner who
is signing for home, having had news of his
mothers death, employed the writer for his
counsel thus sacrificing the interest of the
prisoner from desire to injure his friend.
Oh that estates degrees and offices
Were awarded to men of true merit.
How many would be commanded who now
command.
How many would wear shackles
| Whose limbs are now free

oath if called as witness in any ordinary

suborn forgery of election returns and per-
jury by returning officers, and that he would
conspire with others to falsify election re-
cords, and to utter the said falsified records
as true, in order to count in President who
would in turn appoint him secretary of the
