The Workingmen's Union,

notwithstanding the counter attraction in
the shape of the Robert Emmett centenary, the
meeting, last night, of the Workingmen's
union, in the old court house, was quite largely
attended. J. P. Mumford, first vice president
of the union, occupied the chair.
Hon. Ed. McDermott, of Minneapolis, an
pointed to address the meeting, substantially
said he had been asked why organize working
mems unions, and he had answered.
''to protect themselves" Workingmen had
heretofore, paid no attention to their interests,
Their rights must be somewhere, and they
must try to find them out Capitalists had or
gained unions to cut down wages, but had
been prevented from SO doing by the counter
unions of workingmen. The speaker cautioned
his auditors against political tricksters, who
would dissuade them from forming unions.
The Minneapolis union, begun last August, now
numbered 1000 members, who did all they
possibly could for the protection of their fell
low-laborers. Already merchants have reduced
prices for the benefit of union men, whose in
terests they now wished to consult. There was
now no reason why men should be out of EN-
Ployment, or working at starvation wages, and
these evils could only be remedied except by
uniting. Great accumulations had been wrung
from workingmen, of which the laborers had
not had a fair proportion of the profits,
The meeting then adjourned.

Col. Uline's Retirement and the Money All

The GLOBE has already incidentally an
nounced that, on the LIST inst, after four years
of honorable and efficient service as treasurer
of Ramsey county, Col. Uline was succeeded by
Hon. II. NJ. Rice in that Office. Previous, how
ever, to that succession, very grave task had
to be accomplished, namely, the examination
of the outgoing treasurer's books, and the
counting of the funds on hand. This work is
assigned by law to the board Of audit, composed
at present of the following er-oblcio members:
VIM. Dawson, acting mayor; A. r. Kiefer, clerk
of the courts, and s. Lee Davis, county auditor.
These gentlemen, after thorough searching of
the late treasurer's books, found them to be
entirely correct, and they will SO report to-day
to the board of county commissioners, along
with the following tabulated statement of the
funds in the late treasurer's hands and their
disnos;t;on.

Trying to Choke the People.
TRrainerd Tribune


In the Legislature on Thursday when the
Merrill text book swindle was under discus
sion, member undertook to read an offer
from Cincinnati publishing house to sup
ply books at rates as low or lower than Mer-
rill did. He was interrupted and stopped by
Mr.. Rice, of St. Paul. who read circular
from shirt firm inviting all to purchase
their shirts of them, giving prices, and
claimed that it was just as proper to offer the
one advertisement as the other, and that the
communication offered was an insult to the
House. Another member, Mr.. Bowler,
argued that the House had no time to make
bargains, that the communication was weak
device of the enemies of the bill. Now, in
our opinion, there can be no better argu-
ments against the Merrill law than those
used in its favor by Rice and Bowler. If
members were disposed fairly, and such a
law as the Merrill law was necessity, one
would naturally suppose offers and bids from
all publishing houses in the country would
not only be accepted but courted by the
Legislature. But the contrary is true, and
hence Mr.. Rice chokes off all such PROPOSE
tions. Mr.. Rice is not disposed fairly, be-
cause he is endeavoring to force down the
Threats of the people measure he is careful
to have st. Paul exempted from entirely, and
even objects to and vigorously opposes an
amendment giving each district an oppor-
tunity to,accept or reject it for itself by
popular vote. Never was edict of tyrant
more oppressive to slave than this proposed
action of the Legislature would be upon the
people. To say that the people must do a
certain thing, against their protest, is but the
province of malicious tyrant.
bogus Report of Hayes ASSASSINATION.
Winona Republican.
A rumor was current on the streets at an
early hour this morning that President
Hayes had been assassinated. It seems that
the story passed over the wires of the Chica-
go and Northwestern line. and was the sub
ject of conversation between the night opera
tors more OF less during the whole night
The story was given with SO much detail
that it bore the evidence of truth, and the
night operator here, took it off.
The report was that President Hayes was
shot by man named Barron at $40 or
Friday evening. It appears that Barron re.
quested private interview with the President
which was granted, and that he shot him
three times-in the lungs, in the thigh and
somewhere else, and that the President died
at 11:45.
