MARKS.

He's lawyer, and his name is Marks.
He is also a favorite of Mr.. John Sherman
by the grace of Hayes and the forbear-
ance of the American people secretary of
the treasury. Marks holds an Office in New
Orleans-is internal revenue collector. He
received it only about six weeks ago, as a
reward for services rendered to Sher-
man. His was a especial case.'' What
his services were may be inferred
from the testimony of Emile L.
Weber before the Potter committee on
Wednesday. He had been at Donaldson
vile short time before his appointment,
and requested Mrs. Weber to make state
ment to the effect that she had never known
of the Sherman letter, and knew it never
had an existence, but that lady refused to
perjure herself. He then turned his atten-
ton to her brother-in-law, the witness, and
endeavored to influence his testimony, know
ing he would be summoned before the CON-
mittee. Finding that he made no impression
he departed, but represented to certain par
ties that he had influences over both by
which ne could control them. He had prom
ised that if they would follow his advice
they would be rewarded by appointments to
office under Sherman. He then wrote to
Weber asking him to procure affidavits of
intimidation in the parishes of East and
West Fellciana, but in this he failed also.
He next appeared in the role of decoy. He
told Anderson, just prior to the beginning
of the pending inquiry, that Sher-
man wanted to see him, and
having procured an interview, he and Sher-
man proceeded to pump him as to the tes-
timony he proposed to give, stenographer
being present to take down whatever he
might say, with view to impeaching him
when he should appear upon the stand. An
derson discovered the trap, however, and
fittlngly denounced it. Although Marks had
failed in everything he had undertaken, he
had proved his capacity for dirty work, and
was therefore too valuable man to lose.
He was accordingly appointed to the position
he>now holds, SO that his services might be
available whenever required.
This is a specimen of the men whom
Sherman delights to honor-men who are
equal to the task of perjury, bribery and all
manner of dishonorable intrigue. The fit
ness he seeks in candidates for Office is not
honesty, ability and moral worth, but pro-
ticiency in the cunning of the political
trlckster, and total lack of all regard for
integrity. In his chosen flock, honor, con-
science, virtue, are all exiled. Selfshness
and subserviency to the wishes of their mas
ter are the only impelling motives of their
conduct, and naught but vice and all manner
of ill can be expected to flow from their
supremacy in political affairs.

CROPS IN MINNESOTA.

Winona He,uld: The recent rains which
nave occurred IN this section of the State
during the past twelve days have not Sc
riously injured the crops.
Sank Rapids Seminal: Mr.. j. Russell
planted corn in his garden on the 26th day
of May. On Saturday, the Doth day of June,
he measured some of the stalks and found
them to be thirty-nine inches in length.
New U]m Reeae,r: Our farmers are be-
ginning to complain of rust on wheat. The
heavy rain of the 29th ult. lodged consider
able grain in this vicinity. The nightly fogs
do more to make growing grain rusty than
anything else.
Lake City Sentinel, July 3: The farmers
in this locality sustained serious losses bv the
violent rain and wind storms which visited
this section on Friday and Saturday last.
Many of the handsome fields of waving
grain were tangled and lodged beyond ali
hopes of recovery, and those who early last
week had the prospects of an unusually large
crop feel greatly discouraged. Oats and
barley sustained the greatest injury.
Mcleod county Enterprise: The heavy
rains of last week, accompanied by wind, has
caused large quantities of grain to lodge, es-
pecially wheat. Oats have lodged some, but
not nearly as much as wheat. Farmers are
feeling very uneasy about it, saying that it
is impossible for the wheat to fill while flat
upon the ground and that it cannot rise
again. They also say that grain is begin
ming to rust; SO that prospects for heavy
crop are not near so encouraging as they
were two weeks ago. They claim, however,
that counting all that is down as lost, there
is still enough left to make good average
crop.
St. Peter Iyjbune: Farmers feel great
anxiety lest anfavorable weather should dam
age the crops Continued pleasant weather
would insure a splendid crop of small grain.
but more rain and wind would do great in
jury. gentleman who arrived in town OH
Saturday direct from Paris, ILL.,, informed us
that corn was more advanced here than in
Illinois. If Minnesota can beat Illinois in
the corn crop we reckon with our other adj
vantages we ought not to complain. Re
ports from various parts of the State show
that wheat is generally doing well, but in
some localities it is lodged. A little rust is
reported in southern Minnesota and north
ern Iowa. Very much depends upon the
weather between this time and harvest.

SIBERIAN THE BRIRER.

William Simpson was at one time, but is
not now, federal ofhceholder. He is vouch.
ed for by Gen. Banks, Congressman Conger
and other good Republicans as gentleman
of thorough integrity and excellent capacity.
What he had to say to the Potter committee
at New Orleans on Wednesday, therefore
ought to be accepted by Republicans as the
truth. MI. Simpson swears that a friend of
his told him that he was present in Gov.
Kellogg's office at the time of the Presiden-
tial count, and saw member of the return
ing board receive $4,000 before he signed
the proceedings of the board. Members re-
fused to sign until money was paid. This
member and the witness friend and in
formant are now employed in the custom
house. MIR. Simpson communicated this in
formation in private letter to Mr.. Hayes,
who referred it to Pirate Sherman, who in
turn referred it to Collector Anderson. who
was one of the members of the returning
board. Of course nothing was done with it;
no inquiry was set on foot to either convict
OF acquit the parties accused, probably for
the very good reason that the charge was
known to be true, and Anderson did not care
to convict himself. This is piece of intelli-
gence that the Democratic members of the
committee claim to be able to corroborate.
If they succeed, it will be in order to INQUIRE
who furnished the money and by whom and
at whose instigation it was thus improperly
used. AS John Sherman was in cone+or+
conference with the returning board in fact
bossed the whole business-it is quite likely
that the trail, if closely followed, will lead
directly to him.
In fact, all of the testimony taken
of late tends to hopelessly en-
tangle Sherman in this disreputable
business as the chief conspirator of the lot
Mr.. Weber testifes positively that he had a
conversation with Sherman, Garfield and
others, from the tone of which he was led to
believe that it was generally understood that

'the truest thing that Mrs. jerks has yet

corning her sudden spring into notoriely, or
rather fame, as she preferred to call it, the
witness quickly replied, 4 have made you

THE FOURTH.

4 quiet Iime-Nobody Drunk or Dro,cned--

Ihe Fourth passed off very pleasantly in
this neighborhood According to the pro-
gramme printed i'll the GLOBE of Yesterday,
the crowds assembled yesterday morning
and each took their several departures-some
to Red Rock, some to Minnetonka, some to
Calhoun, and some to the numerous resorts
that surround the city.
All was patriotic and nal.h but there is
nothing to chronicle worthy of note except
The pleasant fact that everybody had good
tine and nobody was misused. At
CALHOUN
the races passed off pleasantly with a large
crowd in attendance and no accidents han
pening. At
pXCELsIoH
according to all accounts. the racing was
pleasant and the crowd was well satisfied.
There was large party in attendance from
st. Paul and Minneapolis, and they seemed
to enjoy themselves in good style.
IN THE CITY
there was the customary number of private
picnics and Eprivate parties. On the island
the East Side German Catholic church or
gained a picnic which WAS participated in
by the neighborhood, and the same NAV be
said of the church in North and South
Minneapolis. Also our Scandina

| holiday to pass with song and social feeling
| Altogether the glorious Fourth passed off
as it usually does-everybody quit business
everybody got warm and perspired. and
everybody came home sober, tired and
| ready to resume the active duties of life
There was nobody killed, nobody wounded,
nobody drunk, INCLUDING the Red Rock

years gone the fathers of the American
