4 lHURDEROUS INSTITUTION.

The developments of the investigation
into the management of the Insane Asylum
at st. Peter, are simply horrible. The testi-
mony which we publish to-day is sickening
in its brutality, and will carry pain to hun
dreds who have friends at this much Wanted
charitable institution. The brutal conduct
of Belts was simply murder-nothing less
The scalding to death of female patient
was gross criminal negligence, to put it very
mildly.
DIR. Bartlett appears to be the autocrat of
these realms of lunacy, and to have endorsed
the brutality, negligence and inhuman con-
duct generally, by retaining, without expo
sure or rebuke, the guilty attendants, No
wonder the pompous autocrat assumed that
he owned the asylum and could permit no
visitors unattended. He was acting in self
defence. He sought in this arbitrary man
ner to conceal the criminal Encouragement
of the institution. Happily for the State he
did not succeed, and the horrible story is
given in the SUNDAY GLOBE to-day.

On northwest line from Fort Smelling to
Eden Prairie it is about II miles. From
Lake of the Woods or Minnehaha creek
south to the Minnesota river County line) it
is fifteen miles. Now let our citizens calcu-
late in their minds eye the area embraced
within these limits, and reflect that every
foot of the ground is taken up, occupied,
fenced and thickay dotted over with fine farm
houses and other buildings, and nineteen
twentieths of the land under cultivation and
yielding prolific haryests, and something of
an idea can be formed of the nearby and
readily available sources of a great revenue
that would be at once secured to St. Paul by
the erection of the proposed bridge at Fort
Smelling. Then remember that there are
three thousand of an agricultural population
in the eastern townships of Scott county
whose trade would likewise be brought to our
city, beyond doubt, by this means.

HAYES and THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY,

There are rumors of peace negotiations
between Hayes and the Republican party.
The leaders demand, that Republicans shall
have all the Offices, that none but Republic
cans shall be appointed, and that the party
whip shall be used to keep them in the
traces. There is exceedingly great doubt
these terms. The sum and substance
of the terms may be easily
eliminated. The whole may be condensed
in the nutshell of the demand of Congress
to control executive patronage. If Senators
and Representatives can have the patronage
of the administration, then Hayes may do
pretty much as he likes.
Now this is just what Hayes has refused.
In all his speeches and written documents,
he has placed himself squarely opposed
to the doctrine. Hence the
opposition of Conkling, Blaine
and Butler, whose snothered wrath may
break forth any day. What the Republicans
want is Office. Give thapa all the Offices and
it would make little difference even if the
Democrats had tho administration. The
day of permanent peace between Hayes and
the Republican party has passed away.
There is no Republican party in the first
place, and in the second place there can be
no peace founded on rottenness and fraud.

Thanks to the Fire Denart,,ent

Thanks to the Fire Department.
To the Editor of The GLOBE.
AS resident of the city, my dwelling
house being in close proximity to the burn
ing of the two barns between Tenth and
Eleventh streets, last evening, permit me
through your columns to gratefully thank
the fire department of the city, for their
promptness and energy in combining the fire
to its place of origin, and saving the adjoin-
ing dwelling houses, some of which were
within very few feet of the burning barns.
Ny own house being within eighty feet of
the fire, and the wind blowing the flames in
that direction, nothing could have saved it,
as we'll as other buildings in the locality, but
for the noble efforts of the gallant fremen.
Never during my twenty eight years residence
here have been so forcibly convinced of the
splendid fire department. of the city, as I
was last night in Witnessing their action in
the performance of their dangerous, arduous
duties at this fire. If some of those gentle
men who were anxious to cut down the sala-
ries of these valuable public servants last
winter, we're placed in the position that we,
whose property and all we hold dear on
earth, we're last night at this fire-being much
too near to be pleasant or healthy for us-I
am inclined to believe these retrenohers
would favor an increase rather than diminiu-
ton of pay of these brave defenders of our
homes. Very respectfully, JAS. STARKEY.

Nc,c Observation-Disclosures Denies.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The Senate commit
tee on public lands to-day resumed the investi-
cation which has grown out of the memorial of
McGarrahan, 'prayingthe enactment of a law to
supply certain omissions in the record of his
alleged patent for the New Idria quicksilver
mine in California. Ex-Congressman Eldredge,
of Wisconsin. made sworn statement that, SO
Tar as his name was concerned, the list of out
side stockholders in the Panoche Grande COM
pany is atrociously false, and denounced as
wicked ISLANDERS any and all imputations or in
situations that his support of
the claim in Congress was in
fuenced by any motive whatever except
a sense of official duty. Eldredge referred to
the printed book of letters, ETC., Which he I'M
derstood the New Idria counsel had been in
dustriously circulating, which in its head lines,
etc. seemed to reflect upon him, whereupon a
discussion arose between counsel as to which
side was responsible for the publication of the
alleged list of outside stockholders.
After recess the ex-parte affidavits were adj
mltted, subject to future action of the commit
tee. They were to the effect that several par
tics had seen and identified the signatures upon
the grants of Gomez. emitting him to Panoche
Grande.
McGarrahan then testified that he had r. C.
Hopkins keeper of the Spanish archives in the
oAice oI tne surveyor general OF California eX-
anime the archives relative to the Panoche
Grande grant, whereupon Shaw of counsel read
in evidence copy of the original affidavit by r.
Q. Hopkins, to the effect that the index of the
spanish archives was not trustworthy in show
ing whether or not the grant to the Panoche
Grande was ever issued. Shaw then submitted in
evidence a letter from Attorney General Black to
Edmunds, commissioner general of the land
office in which he stated he was counsel for the
United States and desired to use the letters
on file relating to the Panoche
Grande land grant for the purpose of
argument before the supreme court where the
question concerning this title was then pend
ing. Following this letter. Shaw read in evil
dence a telegram from Attorney General Black
to Gould, attorney for the New Idria company,
CAL, as follows: The Gomez title is good as
dead. told you the court denied the motion
to dismiss. have drawn on you for $500 in
gold coin, payable at sight, which you prom
ised to pay me in the event of the motion to
dismiss being denied. Attend to my draft
without delay or mistake.
At this point discussion arose as to the date
Of the telegram, there being none upon it.
Judge Black, recently arrived in the committee
room, said the date was torn off, and that the
story was in every particular infamous lie.
Adjourned till Saturday next.

AYITAL QUESTION.

The people of Ramsey county Will nave
submitted to them next Tuesday question
of vital interest to st. Paul 1t is not only
the question whether 100000 in bonds
shall DO issued, but whether the policy of
reaching out in all directions for trade IS to
be formally inaugurated. There is no dis
guising the fact that retail trade languishes
| in st. Paul. We have stretched out iron
arms in all directions for wholesale business,
and have concentrated trade which gives st.
Paul permanent and magnificent position
as commercial emporium. While this
splendid result has been wisely secured, we
have, to considerable extent, overlooked
| our immediate local surroundings on
these largely depend the retail BUSINESS.
By bad roads and no roads, Sy toll bridge,
and in various ways we have, instead of in
viting trade, excluded it and allowed other,
more sagacious cities. to take that which
already belonged to US. Some advance
steps have been taken. The bridge has been
made free and some roads have been i'm
proved, and now we are called upon to take
another advance step, and secure the trade
of section of country which has been abb
solutely lost to US.
We are aware of the many valid objec-
tons which can be urged against increasing
our bonded Indebtedness for any purpose,
but the question to be considered is, can we
afford not t.. make this investment? pru-
dent business man does not hesitate to in
crease his liabilities when he is positively
convinced that it will pay. If there was
nothing more, the result of GLoRE repre-
sentative's trip, published yesterday, would
be sufficient to prove that it would pay. Our
representative went over but trifle of the
country tributary to this proposed line,
and saw, comparatively, but small
portion of the population, but in
a three days trip he met and conversed
with over one hundred farmers whose trade
last year aggregated quarter of a million
dollars or more, all of whom now go else
where, but would gladly come here if a
bridge was built. When instead of hundreds
the trade of thousands is at stake, with cor
responding increase, it does not seem I'M
wise to expend So 1000 per annum to pay in
terest on the bonds which secure this vast
business. That is the practical question.
The nonresident owners of unimproved
property are thus compelled to contribute
their share to build up the city, while only
by such enforced contribution will they ever
expend dollar for the public good.
1t is not SO much a question of policy as
necessity, to secure this important inlet. St.
Paul never goes backward, and she should
take no retrograde step next Tuesday.

A Girls Eccentric lotions.

The Buffalo Commercial Adcertiser of
the LIST inst. says ''About six months ago
the police of the sixth precinct were called
to take care of a young woman named Hat
tie Eucher, aged twenty-five years, who was
employed as servant in the family of a
gentleman residing on Delaware street, near
Cold Springs. She had been conducting her
self in such a remarkable manner that it was

manned short time, when she was removed
to the house of her uncle, Charles Vogt, on

Government Surces,s,

Hanson of the Land Office, before the House
committee on public lands to-day, gave his
views on the proposed abolition of surveyors
general. He said under the present system the
expense of experimenting the expenditure of
moneys for public survey was sixty per cent
of the amount appropriated. He knew cases
where the contractors for large amounts had
made fictitious lines sitting in their tents.
They then came to Washington to show map
with the lines laid down, swear the SURVEYS
have been made and get the money for their
contracts. Commissioner Williamson has pre-
pared bill to remedy the abolition of the CON
tract system and for having the work done by
surveyors appointed by the Office with COM
missioner general in Washington.
