IMPORTANT RAILROAD EXTENSION.

IMTOf1ANI hAlLkOAD EAIENSlON
In announcing the change of ownership
in the st. Paul & Pacific road, The GLOBE
stated that the new bond holders were ready
to extend and complete important links of
road. The statement was made with due
regard to facts, and it now rests entirely
with the Legislature to say whether or not
the State shall have the immediate benefit of
the capital which is ready to push the lines
to completion.
An important meeting was held Saturday
evening, at which the question of granting
certain legislation in order to secure the
completion of the extension lines was con-
sidered. This meeting was composed of
the members of the Legislature and residents
along the line of the projected extension, the
question being to determine what legislation
woyld or would not secure the desired end.
1t appears that the present bondholders are
willing and anxious to complete, the coming
season. the line from Melrose to Alexandria,
and also Crookston to st. Vincent
The completion of the road to Alexandria
opens splendid country, but the link of
sixty-one miles from Crookston to St. Vim
cent, is of extraordinary Importance. It
gives Minnesota direct connection with the
Canada Pacific, and permanently secures for
us the benefit of second Pacific railroad.
Columns might be written descriptive of the
advantages which will result to this State by
pouring into her lap the trade of the British
possessions, but that is too self evident to

ways to speak in the imperative mood. The

doing an unlawful act
Mr.. Satterlee assumes that this fund,
which by the way, is not being collected
with any remarkable alacrity, is to be per-
petual fnnd. But at the same time, as good
prohibitionist, wherein he has our earnest
sympathy, Mr.. Satterlee is striving to pre-
vent the issuing of any license whatever.
Now suppose he succeeds; where then are
the funds to come from to support his in
stitution.
Furthermore, it appears that the State
must of necessity have the care of the insi
tuition and the distribution of the fund, yet
Mr.. Satterlee claims that the State has no
possible right to interfere in the matter. But
letting that matter pass, we beg to say to Mr..
Satterlee, and to all who share his opinions,
that they have entirely Inexperienced the
attitude of those who do favor this change,
and we shall briefly recapitulate the grounds
of our belief.
dealers is none the less tax because it is
called license fee. We think it is kind
of class legislation which is in opposition
to the general spirit of our constitution. We
are also of the opinion the law providing this
fund is practically dead letter, and that the
temperance feeling is growing stronger
throughout the State, in consequence of
which the number of licenses will be less
than heretofore, and necessarily the sources
of supply for the asylum will be to that ex-
tent cut off, and lastly, we should by no
means approve the administration which

rs THE SULTAN TR4ITOR TORUss14a

rs THE SULTAN II TRAITOR TO RUSSIA?
The brother, (Ex-Sultan,) of the reigning
monarch of Turkey is in a prison. The
present Sultan has acted very strangely.
During the war with Russia the Turkish
navy has cut no figure, although it appeared
to every one that the first movement of
Turkey would be to lombard the Russian
cities on the Black Sea. Undoubtedly the
success Of the Turks at the onset of the war
was brilliant, so far at least as we were able
to judge by the published accounts. But
take it altogether, it is the most mysterious
affair in the history of wars.
Since the surrender of Osman Pasha, and
for several weeks before, the world has been
kept in profound ignorance of the doings of
Russia and Turkey. England pretended to
be deceived but there is no doubt but the
fighting suddenly ceased, and as to what has
transpired since, we are left almost in total
darkness. And now comes the rumor that the
Sultan sold out to Russia, and betrayed his
country. There are some strange things
about the negotiations of the past few weeks,
but if the Sultan has proved false to the
Moslem, he should at once make his will,
provide case of scissors and sack for the
Bosphorus, ready at any moment for his
exit from this sublunary sphere.

THE GREATSPEECH OF TICE-PRESI-
DENT HENDRICKS,

DENT HENDRICKS.
Vice-President Hendricks, on assuming the
Presidents Chair in the great Democratic
State Convention of Indiana, delivered a
speech, and uttered principles destined to
decide the next Presidential election. It is
worthy of the State of Indiana, worthy of
the speaker as statesman, worthy of the
Democratic party, and worthy of the labor
ing masses of the people.
Let every one read these words of wisdom
published in another column of this paper
They glow with the ancient and good old
doctrine of government for the people, and
of the people, and by the people, Gov.
Hendricks denounces sectional divisions, he
denounces Republican interference with
State courts and with State Legislatures, he
pleads for the rights of the West, and of the
South, and of the whole country, he de-
mands the repeal of the resumption act, and
the restoration of the dollar of the fathers,
and asks the people to summon the corrupt
Republican party to the bar of the country to
render an account of its stewardship? Let
us have an account, item by item. from the
rotten faction of government, let us know all
the rascalities, let us know all the foreign in
fuence of money. The people cannot be
starved without last effort of resistance:
that effort will restore the government into
the hands of the people.

need elaboration. The advantage is simply
incalculable, and anything which can be
done to hasten these lines to successful COM
pletion, should be done at once.
The only stumbling block in the way re-
suits from last winters legislation tying up
the land grant to the extent of 100000 acres.
Mr.. Rice has introduced a bill which lifts
this incubus from the st. Vincent extension,
and will secure the connection with the
Canadian Pacific before next fall. Not an
acre is sought for or asked until the road is
entirely completed, and the passage of this
bill will not only secure the immediate ex-
tension to st. Vincent, but also
the construction of the line from
Melrose to Alexandria. With such
important results hanging in the balance the
passage of the bill ought to be unanimous
and immediate. If any opposition arises we
shall. be curious to see what members of the
Legislature are so blind to the interests of
their constituents. No man eau oppose the
measure and be true to the State at large or
to his immediate constituents.

THE INEBRIATE ASYLUM.
Mr.. Satterlee's Argument Against Changing
the Institution Demolished.

the Institution Demolished.
Rochester Post.
The Rev. w. w. Satterlee has written a
which he is particularly severe upon those
who honestly think that the State has, not
the power simply, but the right, to change
the inebriate asylum into hospital for the
insane. But his logic is curiously inconsist-
ent, for he assumes that the fee which the
law requires to be paid by oil liquor dealers
is not tax, but license, and that to have
required those dealers to pay like amount
for the support of an insane asylum would
have been bad law, and could not have been
sustained in the courts. Pray, would it
make any difference as matter
of Justice to what use the State
applied that fund If the police power
of the State can impose license at all, has
she not equal power to dispose of the money
collected from those licenses? 1t seems to
us that to assume the contrary is simply
childish, and decidedly illogical. But the
reverend gentleman goes on to declare that q
solemn compact was entered into on the part
of the State to use this fund for a particular
purpose, and to divert it from that purpose
is o fraud. Now, IN the first place, sOver-
eign State cannot commit fraud,
and in the second place, the legisla-
ture, which springs directly from the people,
can at all times revoke, amend, or change
any law which it has power to pass, and
thirdly, no vested right has accrued to any
person under this law. No inebriate can
walk into the asylum and claim as his right,
food, lodging, raiment or medical attendance;
no right which he can claim or enforce has
in anywise become vested in him. Nor has
any temperance society or individual whom
soever, acquired any title either to the asy-
lum grounds: or building, or fund, and be-
fore any breach of faith can be charged,
some right must be invaded or jeopardized.
There neither is nor can be any parallel
between the position of the State in regard
to this fund, and the position of guardian
of minor children, which is so gibly quoted

tarily solicit bride and offer himself for

Will HE VETO THE WILL OF THE
PEOPLE3

Shall one mans signature defeat the will
of the American people? What then is the
value of Constitution? What are parch-
ments worth? What is the right of suffrage
worth? What is the right of suffrage, either
in its exercise. or regarded as safeguard
for the people? What is self government
worth, if one mans will can control and
rule and govern? The people of the United
States demand the restoration of the original
coinage of the constitution.
Dare man, one man whose official posi-
ton is founded upon dead mems bones,
whose power rests upon wrecks, whose Office
is covered all over with the faint of fraud,
and the darkness of suspicion, dare one man
at his heels, openly to back him or brighten
him, dare he assume the despotic power?
The origin of the veto was to secure the
independence of the three departments of
government. 1t was to enable the President
to protect himself against the Legislature.
The people dreaded the omnipotence of
parliament = now the dread is the ON
impotence of the King. There is nothing in
the history of the veto power, nothing in its
origin, nothing in it's necessity, justifying
its existence, except alone to carry out the
will of the people.
Every one knows the private and personal
opinions of President Hayes, but he was not
elected OF chosen by the electoral commission
to carry out his own personal and private
opinions. The President is chose to repre-
sent and to execute the will of the people,
In 1876, when for the first
time, in fifteen years, all the States had a
chance to vote for President, Tilden re-
ceived 1924 1865, and Hayes 4,O33, 295 of the
votes of the people, and Tilden received
1894 majority of the popular vote of the
people.
What has this to do with it? It has this
to do with it, that Mr.. Hayes has not been
elected by majority of the people,
that he was not elected at all, nor is he
President except by the choice of the 'Elec-
toral Commission and it is we'll known
that the electoral Commission is believed
to-day, and will be believed to be hundred
years, a great ssNational Fraud
It is not necessary to rehearse the old
story. But can President Hayes, under
these circumstances, afford to even attempt
veto on the will of the people?
