TIE viceroy Of India is certainly prompt
and energetic in the adoption of measures to
punish those in Afghanistan who have shown
indignity to the British flag. Already fight
ing has begun in the Khyber pass, and an
advance all along the line has been ordered.
The Ameer of Afghanistan has fighting
force of less than hundred thousand men,
while there is already larger force of Indian
native troops, backed by twenty thousand
British soldiers in the field against him.
The Indian and British soldiers are vastly
superior to the Afghan troops in point of
discipline, arms and equipment, and it is
not probable the latter can offer effective
resistance to the advance of the invading
army, especially as they are being attacked
in front and flank.

We are glad to observe that the State
treasurer If Missouri and his predecessor
have both been indicted and arrested charged
with misfeasance in Office and unlawfully de-
irving benefits from deposits Of public mon
eys. Through their operations the State of
Missouri has suffered the loss of half mill
lion dollars. Tempted by promises Of large
interest, they loaned the public funds to rot
ten banks, and when the banks failed they
saddled the loss upon the State. It is time
that not only downright defalcations but
such"transactions as these should be visited
with exemplary punishment, and if Missouri
will set an example in this instance we shall
be glad to give her all honor for very
praiseworthy deed.

campaign as the champion Of Mr.. Wash

been a member Of the Millers' Association. y
If we should announce that this old dotard
was liar, vino was prostitutng the position
which he not only disgraces but is incompe-
tent to fill, we should not go far astray.
The GLOBE has exposed this statement
q dozen times or more already. BILL
with his brother, G. G. Washburn, and two
other partners, own the great Washburn A
and Washburn B mills, which have world
wide notoriety. Each mill has one member
of its firm who is enrolled as member of
the Millers' Association. Mr.. Washburn's
partners are down as members, but does that
relieve him from the responsibility? By no
means. He shares in every dollar which is
stolen from the farmer.
Bill King said in his paper few days ago:
"Gen. Washpurn not only happens to be
engaged somaeaoh0t IN the nilli,ag business,
but is also candidate for Congress-
The Democratic members of the Mime
apolis Board Of Trade ought to feel very
cheerful when called upon to contribute to
the salary of the lying old fossil who acts as
Secretary.
