AT the Democratic convention at Shakopee
Thursday, the status of Lincoln county was
raised. Inquiry at the secretary of States
office Develops the fact that Lincoln
county was organized in 1877, and that to-
day it has full county organization. In
1876 it had three voting precincts, Yellow
Medicine, Marshfeld, the county seat, and
Benton township. At that election Hon. ..
X. Davis received eighty votes, and Hon.
Ara Barton eighteen votes. The returns of
the last election do not give the voting pre-
cincts, but Gov. Pillsbury received sixty
three votes, and Hon. VIM. l.. Banning, the
Democratic candidate, sixteen votes. The
result for district judge was Wal
ling, Rep, forty-seven votes
Cox, Dem., thirty-three votes.
The above settles beyond an. question the
fact that Lincoln is an organized county. It
also settles the fact that Lincoln county is
an excellent field for Democratic missionary
work, and the GLOBE calls upon Mr.. Fl. O..
Stewart, and the Democrats of the county to
go to work and perfect a thorough organiza-
ton at once, and be prepared to make a
goodreport at the ballot box this fall. Every
Democrat is expected to be up and doing.

no apology. Results are their own commen-

ment Such bold position would have dis
armed opposition, and carried the

much fear that the golden opportunity has
been lost, and that by his 4demagogueism
Beaconsfeld has strengthened his opponents

The story of Oakley, the defaulting cashier
of the Merchants Exchange National bank
of New York, as told by himself, will awaken
the keenest sympathy for the unfortunate
man in the public mind. Since his thefts,
amounting to 100000, were discovered seven
years ago, he has been wanderer on the
inhospitable shores of Canada. His ill
gotten wealth soon took to itself wings and
flew away, and he was actually compelled on
several occasions to work for living just as
some people who never stole any money
have been obliged to do. This is indeed
sad-too sad, and should lead those whom he
defrauded to deal leniently with him. That
a man like him should be reduced to the
level of common working man is cause for
regret and commiseration.

Respomsibi1itu Lies.
st. Cloud Times.
Senator Mealey, of Wright county, is the
father of the present tax law. All that State
Auditor Whitcomb did was to engraft few
clauses to reduce the printers fees and place
numerous other restrictions on the printer
Princeton U1tlon.
We have frequently noticed items of the
above character in our exchanges, and have
thus far let them pass by without contrad1c-
tion for the reason that we do not feel that
it is the duty of Democratic papers to defend
Republican officials from the attacks of the
organs of their own party, but desire to
place the responsibility where it belongs, now
impels us to speak. We know some.
thing about the effort that was made at the
the printers fees, and we believe Mr.. Whit
comb had lit le or nothing to do with the
certainly it was not in his power to
change the compensation allowed for print
ing the tax list. Newspapers who hold him
to account for it, don't know what they are
talking about. If they desire to put the re-
sponsibility where it belongs, let them fix it
upon their Senators and Representatives
They are the ones who are to blam-, if any,
body.
At the session of 1877 the bill as unani-
mously reported to the senate by the joint
Committee on taxes and tax laws, reduced
the printers fees to ten cents per description.
The friends of the newspapers succeeded,
against strong opposition, in amending the
bill so as to let these fees remain at fifteen
cents. Last winter this same committee
again unanimously reported to the senate
the tax bill, the advertising fees this time
being cut down to eight cents, and that. too,
after Mr.. Whitcomb had stated to the COM
mittee that if a change was made, it
should not be reduced below ten or
twelve cents, these figures being low enough.
When the bill was under consideration in
committee of the whole. where no record of
the vote is kept, amendments to raise the
price to fifteen and twelve cents were voted
down, and it was only by moving to amend
the report of the committee, and demanding
the ayes and noes, that an amendment max
ing the advertising fees twelve cents was
| finally adopted, a number of leading Sena-
tors opposing and voting against it. If
| the newspaper men desire to know who are
responsible for tie reduction, let them con-
suit the record of that vote. When we con-
slider that the price paid for this work in
Wisconsin is twenty-five cents and in Iowa
twenty cents, and that our own legislature
imposes heavy penalties and interest upon
delinquents, this annual petty war upon the
newspapers seems unjust, and ought to be
rebuked by the craft in general.
