British nation, it 10 plain that he prefers the
interests of Great Britain or the empire to
those of Ireland; IL he means the Irish nation,
then he practically abandons the demand for
Home Rule, for he, in effect. admits that the
Parliament of London is the Parliament of Ire
land and, in either case. he is not an Irish
Nationalist. Against bis course the strongest
protests have been offered by almost the whole
popular party in Ireland ne British newspa-
pers in Ireland and Eogland alone extend to it
approval.
Some nine members OF the active section of
the Home Rule party, seeing that Mr. Butt
had resolved on q policy of inaction at this i'm
portant jupcture, aud convinced that the adop-
tion OF such o policy involved the loss of
splendid opportunity for advancing Irish in

THE IM1IIGR1TION BUREAU.

The late Legislature passed an act appro-
priating $4,000 for immigration purposes
and providing for an immigration bureau to
expend the money. That bureau has the
Governor for president, and two members
from each congressional district are selected
by the Governor. These selections were
made yesterday, as follows:
First District-August Peterson, OF Free
born county. and E. G. Huntington, of Cotton
wood.
Second District-Albert Knight, OF Nlcoilet
county. The remaining member from thus
district is still to be named.
Third District-Frederick Won Baumbach, of
Douglas, and Daniel Anderson, of Isanti
county.
This commission is to work without pay
save sufficient to meet actual expenses, but
they are authorized to appoint secretary
to do such work as may be necessary in the
premises. This new board is to meet at the
Capitol on Thursday next and make an
organization. The work which this Board
will have before it will be of incalculable
value to the State if properly per-
formed. The amount of the appro-
priation is distressingly small. It would
have paid to have expended five times the
amount, but the fact that such a small
amount was named, renders it all the more
important that not even one dollar is frit-
tered away. Other States, far less attractive,
either for health or business, than Mime
sofa, are putting forth their efforts to secure
population, and meeting with great success.
Minnesota has too long been idle, and the
little which can be done with the small
amount named, should be done quickly.

THE KNIGHT OF THE SORROWFUL
COUNTEN1ECE.


Howe, the Don Quixote of the Republican
Senate, is in about the same condition as
was his immortal prototype after having
made his memorable charge on the wind
mills. Far be it from the GLOBE to insult
the memory of Cervantes, or to detract from
his inimitable creation, but Howe's daring
exploit, and present exhausted condition are
reminders on a smaller scale, of the wind
mill charge.
Don Quixote called the attention of
Squire Sancho Panza to thirty monstrous
giants. ''What giants?' said Sancho.
"Those thou seest yonder with their long
arms" "Look SIR answered Sancho "they
are not giants but windmills.' Bidding the
squire to get him aside and pray, the valiant
knight shouting: "Fly not, ye towards and
vile caitiffs; for it is single knight who
assaults you,'' rushed forward on the whirl-
ing sail. Over on the plain turned horse
and rider, and Sancho, on his ass, hurrying
up, exclaimed: "God save me, did I not
warn you to have care what you did, for
they we're nothing but windmills? And
nobody could mistake them, but one who
had the like in his head.''
"Peace, friend Sancho,' answered Don
Quixote, "for matters of war are, of all
others, most subject to continual change
With this sage conclusion, we commend the
incident to the disappointed candidate for
Judge of the Supreme Court. Ho! Howe

priation for the improvement of the Missis-
sippi. The Captain reported that though
when the committee first went to Washing
ton they found Congress apathetic in regard
to the matter, they had succeeded in secur-
ing their sympathy for the project, and now
there was very good feeling towards the
improvement of the Mississippi. After some
discussion, the chairman Of the meeting,
Mr.. George Balm, was authorized to appoint
a committee of ten to assess the merchants
and property owners of the city SO as to
raise $1,000, the amount estimated for the
expenses of the committee of two in Wash
ington for the next two months. It is ex-
pected that the committee will accomplish
such good work at Washington that in a
short time the favor of Congress to the inn
provement of the great waterway will be a

These developments have sent thrill of
horror and shame throughout the length and
breadth of the State. The murder of McDon-
aid cannot be excused on the ground that
the means used were necessary to compel
him to take his medicine and food. Better
far that the poor maniac should have been
permitted to die of voluntary starvation, than
that he should have been choked to death by
brute, under the plea of affording nourish-
ment to his victim. It is quite probable that

trate the terrible temper of the brute whom
the asylum authorities had placed in charge
of hundreds of poor demented beings, who,
devoid of mind and reason, were not respon-
sible for their acts, and were entitled to the
kindest treatment which could be bestowed
upon them by their fellow men. We have
been accustomed to allude to this institution
as the ''noblest of our charities are
now compelledto hang our heads in shame
and humiliation at the disgrace these devel-
opments of the brutalities practiced therein
bring upon the fair fame of our State.
We are gratifed to know that the commit
tee is determined to make a complete over
hauling of the asylum. Should justice be
meted out, there are some in there now who
will yet wear the checkered garb of our State

WAR!---EIRsT -ARMY RESERVE

It is not very safe to predict war, and it is
just about as unsafe to say peace. One thing
is quite sure, permanent peace is further off
than ever. The GLOBE has all along said
there could be no permanent peace in
Europe until the aggressive demands of
Russia were withdrawn. Russia, backed
by Prussia, is as obstinate as ever
and England, slow to move, but guided by
the Mephistopheles of diplomacy, the Earl
of Beaconsfeld, is gathering from the -four
corners of the earth her vast resources, and
calling the reserves of her drilled army
ready, at any moment, for action.
England will not undertake to fight alone
and the surmises of European
correspondents may prove realities,

the world at command, may rouse France
and Italy and Spain in another Holy Alliance
against the Greek and the Turk. We ven

others sought to make some capital by re-
pudiating the late speech of Tinloaowe, and
they met with a fate which ought to be a
warning to all such sycophants. They called
in body on the President, and assured
him that they had the utmost confidence in
him, and that the speech of Howe was made
without consultation with them. and did not
meet their approval in any respect. Having
thus laid the groundwork, the self consti-
tuted delegation gently suggested that one
Cobb of Wisconsin was just the man for

vacant by the death of Allison. They
endorsed Cobb i'll the highest style of the

also, and the delegation left the White
House feeling sure that by abusing Howe
they had secured everlasting favor for them
selves. No sooner had they reached the
other end Of the avenue, than they learned
to their dismay that Schofeld had already
been appointed, and his name was sent into
the Senate while they were with the Presi-
dent. Mr.. Cameron then began to feel that
he had sold himself cheaper than Mr..

The Chicago Interior says:
The Presbyterian ministers discussed the
Sunday newspaper business at their last
meeting. Rev. Mr.. French of the Fourth
| church, led the discussion in thoughtful
and earnest speech. He showed in manner
which produced serious impression, the
effect upon the spirituality of Christian
which would necessarily be produced by read
ing secular newspaper the first thing on
Sabbath morning, thus bringing the world
and all it's interests vividly and impressively
| before the mind, subjects which it was of
the first Importance to exclude from the
thoughts. He thought the value of the Sab
bath as means of spiritual growth, and
even as day of rest from worldly tolls was
| thus well-nigh destroyed. The question of
the duty of the ministers in relation to this
will hereafter take decided action in regard
to it. We understand that majority of the
church members of all denominations take
one OF more of the Sunday papers. Their
circulation is nearly double the weekday
editions, and the advertising several times as
large.
The Chicago All5nece discusses the matter
thus:
At the meeting of the Presbyterian minis
ters last Monday, the question Of the 'spro-
priety of publishing notices of Sabbath
services in the Sunday morning papers,
came up for discussion, and committee was
appointed to confer with ministers of other
denominations upon the question. The
general opinion was expressed that the no.
tices should appear in the Saturday morning
papers.
It is great question whether the church
can dispose of the horsecars, Sunday news
papers, and all other Sunday employment
agencies so summarily by vote of yea or
nay. The newspapers, including the Sunday
papers, WELD most important influence,
and this cannot be denied. It is far worse
to patronize Monday paper than oneissued
Saturday at midnight, for the work done on
the former is positive Sabbath breaking,
while that on the latter is done on Friday
and Saturday. A theory of the universe that
is limited and confined to people of one be-
lief is necessarily restricted and narrow, and
if it costs several millions of lives and souls
per annum to keep the world in running
order, q theory of salvation must take this
into cognizance, and admit to be religious
the work that is done for the public good,
The horse cars, the Sunday trains, tho news
papers, are the public institutions, and must
be neither wrong or right. Let it be decided
first whether we shall return to the Puritan
Sunday, and then act accordingly.
Apropos of the above, we are reminded of
the student who was studying Greek on the
Sabbath, and was asked by his chum to
translate sentence, but was met by the re-
sponse that it would be wrong. The per-
picked student replied that Christ laid down
the rule that the Sabbath was made for man,
and not man for the Sabbath. Whereupon
the orthodox chum was overcome, and satis-
fed his conscience on the ground that he was
helping an ass out of pit.
