the robbers before he returns to American
SOIL Besides serving this purpose, Mac
Kennels raid will no doubt be decided
benefit to the present government of Mexico,
for it is aimed at and will probably severely
cripple the revolutionists under Escobedo,
and for this reason will only provoke feeble
protest from the Diaz government, just for
appearance sake.
The frequency of these raids upon A,neri-
can soil is the cause of great loss to the peo-
pie of Texas, and does the additional injury
of preventing the settlement of the country.
Places where life and property are held only
at the caprice of bands of lawless bandits,
people will shun. If emigration to Texas,
and if the development of the country are
desirable considerations, means should be
taken to put summary stop to them. The
Mexican government has acknowledged its
inability to put an end to the raids, and our
own government is too pusillanimous to take
means to punish the perpetrators. It has
the refore become necessary for Gen. Mac
Kenzie to act upon his own responsibility in
the matter. That he will severely punish
the greasers is ardently to be hoped. But
even this will not put an end to the raids.
It remains for the settlers themselves to pro-
tect their rights, which they should do, if
necessary, by driving the entire thieving
horde from the border States of Mexico. If
their energetic measures should precipitate a
war, no harm would come, for such a
conflict is bound to come to pass sooner or
later. It is needless to look to Washington
for protection, for government that per-
mits itself to be spit upon by Spain, and its
representatives to be driven from South and
Central American capitals without protest,
need not be expected to defend its citizens
from foreign invasion. Retaliatory measures
must be prompt and exemplary OF there will
never be safety for either life Or property on
| the Texas frontier.

The foul birds of prey gathered at Wash
ington to witness the Inauguration of Hayes
and to demand their share of the common
plumber. J. E. Anderson went there vouched
for by kellogg, Nash, Darrall and that crew,
whose only title to consideration was that
they had all conspired to alter the vote of
Louisiana. Hayes had never seen Anderson
before that time, but he promptly and fully
endorsed him in the following letter:
''Hon. W. NJ. Evarts:
Please appoint this gentleman toa consulate

was also among the band of patriots then as
sembled at the capital, whose headquarters
was established at the White House. He
was accredited like Anderson, and received
his order for an office in these terms:

his claims may have your favorable attention.

others that Hayes was ignorant of what he
was doing when he made these Especial
cases. and rested them on the claims of
Dennis and Anderson and their associates,
is to insult public intelligence. He was only
making good the contracts of his agents,
who themselves had been rewarded with the
choicest honors of the republic, and de-
manded pay for their subalterns

down it's programme. It will not base its
action upon any of the testimony taken be-
fore the Potter committee, but will subpoena
both Anderson and Darrall. It is difficult to
perceive how these witnesses can testify to
anything more or anything less than they
have sworn to before the House committee,
unless it is the purpose of the committee to
suppress all evidence except that which may
be favorable to Matthews, or furnish means
by which he can explain away his rather
questionable transactions. It is also a
suspicious circumstance that the committee
will sit with closed doors, only single
Associated Press reporter being permitted to
report it. AS the Associated Press is grossly
partisan, it is safe to say that the reports of
the evidence will be- as favorable to the be-
smirched Senator as it is possible for them
to be made.

Elect u Democrat.
Little Falls Transcript.

AS to the Democrats, it does not yet ap-
pear who will probably be put in the field
against the Republican nominee. It ap-
pears to US that the Democrats have better
chance to carry the election than they did
two years ago, when Stewart was elected by
only about 1000 majority. The Republican
convention will be held early, giving the
Democrats ample time to carefully view the
situation and lay their plans for the
campaign. Then there are several reasons
why Democrat could do more in Congress
for this district and State than Republican
could, one of which is that the next Congress
will undoubtedly be Democratic in both
branches. If Minnesota has straight Re-
publican delegation in Congress, it will be
difficult to secure cooperation of Democrats
to pass any acts for the benefit of this State,
except i'll cases where the State is very clear
ly entitled to the benefits of such acts.
For instance, the bill now before Congress
to appropriate $4,000 to aid in building the

MEXICAN Raids.

The invasion of Mexico by Gen. Mac
Kenzie at the head of five thousand troops,
is likely to create something of a sensation
for time cause the exchange of few di-
plomatic notes between the City of Mexico
and Washington, and then be forgotten.
The relations between the United States and
Mexico are of an exceptional character, and
could not exist for a day between any other
two nations in Christendom without involving
them in bloody war. Although the line of
demarkation between the two countries is
clearly enough defined by treaty, the resi-
dents along the Rio Grande treat the matter
with absolute Indifference. For the past ten
or twelve years-ever since the government
at Washington has become too cowardly to
resent insult from even the most contempt
ible principality on the globe-the rights of
American citizens on the Mexican border
have been subject to the caprice of every
petty revolutionist or chief Of robber band
who has thought proper to replenish his
stores without going to the expense of pur-
chase.
Of late, these raids across the border have
become almost too numerous to be pleasant,
and besides robbing the Texans of
their horses, many lives have been taken by
the marauders. For these latter raids Esco-
bedo, the notorious malcontent and revo-
lutionist, is directly responsible. He has
lately established his headquarters near New
Laredo, and has been recruiting the ranks
of his ''army'' from both sides of the Rio
Grande. He has been supplied with an
abundance of arms and ammunition, but
horses were scarce, and in order to supply
his men with them, SO necessary to the
prosecution of revolution especially in a
retreat raids have been organized across
the border. A few weeks ago his bandits
killed eighteen persons and carried off two
hundred head of horses. Another raid was
made by the Kickapoo Indians under his
direction only about ten days since, with the
usual result of loss of property and life. To
punish these marauders Mackenzie crossed
the Rio Grande, but was driven back by a
superior force. Reinforced by several COM
panies of cavalry he has again ventured into
Mexico and will no doubt severely chastise

THE RE-CHRISTENING.

Stc'cnfts Romans Hotel ODened as az

New York Star.
The newly baptized Park Avenue Hotel,
late the Women's Hotel, was formally opened
to the public in general, and the masculine
sex in particular, yesterday afternoon. The
alterations required to adapt it's new purpose
were not quite completed, nevertheless, the
mere sight of trowsers and coat-tails, other
than those of liveried menials, was sufficient
to throw an air of worldliness over this once
exclusive feminine paradise. True, the bar
was not yet ready for business, the billiard
room still wore an expression of vacancy,
the cuspidors had not yet intruded, and the
BARRIERS call Of ''next'' was as yet unheard:
but then to compensate in measure for
these necessary comforts smoking was al
lowed, and no one seemed to be afraid of the
petticoat angels, who, to the number of some
fifty, are said to still float about the cor
ridors.
The necessary appurtenances to a hotel
intruded for males will, however, be supplied
in few days, and then, all things consid-
cred, the Park Avenue will be one of the
most popular in the city. The bar, billiard,
and smoking rooms are on the left or Thirty
second street half of the ground floor. The
gentlemen's reception and reading-rooms
and the barber-shop are to be on the OPP
posite side of the main entrance.
When the first dinner under the new
regime took place during the afternoon, all
the invited male guests were seated at the
main table, while the feminine boarders
took their by this time customary seats at
the cheerful side tables. Many of these
latter evidently expected that they would
be treated to poetic toasts and witty speeches
apropos of the occasion. They had, no
doubt, read OF heard somewhere that these
lads to good Digestion come with the
champagne, but as they found that the
beverage only introduced flow of reason
and no wit of soul, they one by one slowly
departed, except few who had evidently
made up their minds to remain to the last
probably as an heroic protest against the
change of Judge Hilton's plan. When
plentiful supply of cigars was served to the
enemy. however, and lighted with gusto,
they made one grand rush for the door, and
man was in sole possession of the spacious
and handsome apartment.

A Mysterious Mining Party.


A correspondent of the Chicago Times,
under date of June 9, writes as follows from
Bismarck:
mysterious mining party left here last
Thursday on the steamer Big Horn. There
were ten of them, from St. Paul and the Black
Hills. The principal man from the former
place was j. s. Farnesworth, brother-in-law of
the Minnesota merchant prince, Maurice Auer-
brach. Of the other names learned were X. s.
Burke, Judge Hollins. II. P. Manning, Dear
Roberts, and MIR. Jacoby, Deadwood. Jacoby
is partner in several rich quartz leads in the
Hills. man named George J. Whetmore is
the leader. Hills people are making inquiries
to their direction from Bismarck. There is
the miners suspicion that they have secret
bonanza somewhere known as s:Whetmore's
Diggings.' They said in confidence they were
going to Bear Paw mountains. but that is con-
tradicted by the fact that they bought tickets
in one name (fctitious) for ten men to Fort
Buford. The steamer Custer is waiting
there for a portion of the Big Horns cargo, and
they can very neatly board her and steam up
to Fort Keogh. The Big Horn mountains then
must be their destination, and their round
about route is to deceive the Black Killers
who entertain a favorable opinion of that coun-
try. They will probably fit out at Miles City,

IMPEACH HIN,

The all-absorbing interest of the public in
the developments attending the electoral in
vestigation has caused the work of another
committee charged with an inquiry into GER
tain fraudulent transactions connected with
the government to be entirely overlooked.
But the committee, under the guidance of
Mr.. Glover, has not been idle, but has
traced one very crooked transaction, at least,
right to John Sherman's door.
It will be remembered that Mr.. Hayes, on
his own responsibility, sent commission
to the South shortly after his Inaugural ton
for the purpose Of patching up a peace with
the Democrats who had been swindled out of
their rights in the Presidential election, and,
as it is now more than suspected, of covering
up the rascally transactions of visiting states
men and returning boards, and, if possible,
destroying the evidence. AS a result of this
peace commission Hampton was in
stalled Governor of South Carolina, and
Nichols of Louisiana, although the electoral
votes of both States had been counted for
Hayes There was no appropriation for the
payment of the expenses of this body OF
men, and some were foolish enough to sup
pose that they paid their own expenses OF
got the wherewithal from the
personal and political friends of
Mr.. Hayes. Such, however, was
not the case. Mr.. Glover has just unearthed
two letters which throw flood of light on
the transaction. They show that Sherman
applied to the First National bank of New
York for the necessary funds and received
them, promising to have the item added to
the deficiency bill, when the bank would be
reimbursed.
If this commission had been sent to the
South by authority of law there would be
no harm in the transaction, perhaps. The
outcome, however, is the most disreputable
part of it, The money has never been re-
paid, but in lieu thereof Mr.. John Sherman,
secretary of the treasury, entered into nego-
tiations with the First National bank OF
New York. as member of the syndicate,
and sold that institution over fifty millions
of government five, four and half and
four per cent. bonds at discount of one
per cent. from tho market price. By this
means the treasury was robbed outright OF
a clear half million of dollars.
The transaction with the syndicate has al
ready been properly characterized in the
GLOBE from purely business standpoint
and without knowledge of the motive that
actuated Sherman. The affair, in the light
of these later developments, presents a
different aspect, and instead of being a
business transaction of questionable wisdom
assumes the character of downright robbery
which should entitle the perpetrator to a
lifelong lease of cell in the Auburn peni-
tentlary. 1t can no longer be regarded as
having been prompted by favoritism alone,
but is villainous scheme of theft, perpe-
trated in payment of debt incurred for cor
rupt political purposes. If any doubt ex-
listed as to the right of the House of Repre-
sentatives to impeach John Sherman for
high crimes and misdemeanors, this doubt
will be removed by the startling disclosures
of the Florida committee, and action should
be taken without delay.
