SYMPATHY FOR MURDERERS.

We confess to entertaining little sympathy
Tor murderers as class, although an &C.
| caslonal instance arises in which sympathy
does not appear to be thrown away. We
cannot read with patience, however, the
maudin sentimentality of some of the news
papers over the hanging of the two Molie
Maguires at Mauch Chunk last week, lust at
the moment that reprieve WAS en- route
from Harrisburg. There is, we admit.
something horrible in the thought. of the
execution of man just as reprieve was
being placed in the executioner's hands, but
in the case in point there appears to have
been no doubt of the guilt of the, parties who
suffered, and the issue of the reprieve was
matter ofaquestionable propriety. The Gull
prits were members of that infamous gang
OF desperadoes that made murder q part of
the duty of all who gave in their adhesion to
it. They were charged, tried and convicted
OF that crime, and sentenced to death upon
the scaffold. Appeals had been made; to the
board of pardons in their behalf. but that
body refused to interfere to save
their worthless necks. The Governor had
once extended the time in which they might
prepare for death, and had refused to con-
slider further applications. Their attorney
however, on the night before the day set
for their execution, had laid the case more
fully before the executive, and after Sleep
ing over the matter, he had decided to grant
a reprleve. He forwarded it by telegraph to
Mauch Chunk, but thirty seconds before the
dispatch was placed in the sheriff's hands
the drop had fallen, and the niscreants'
necks had been broken.
There is no evidence to show that these
men did not deserve death, nor is there evil
aence that the governor did right or even
acted humanely in issuing his reprieve. Had
it arrived few minutes sooner the felons
might have been saved for time, but thew
had already passed through all the agonies
IF preparation for death that was inevitable.
To give them hope at the last moment,
md perhaps cause them to pass through the
'ruel ordeal once more, was not
N act of mercy. If censure is called for it
III rests upon Gov. Hartranft for delaying
90 long his act of mistaken mercy. If the
writ delaying the execution had been issued
week previously, no one would have had

unfortunate catastrophe on the Schuylkill
He was in boat with his wife and child, his
own sister and her child. Knowing nothing
of the dam, they were swept over it and the
boat was upset. His wife was instantly
sucked under by the strong current. His

saved by clinging to the gunwale of the

he had never seen or heard of
HIS PRESENT WIFE,

nine months later by his brother. He would

the future would give him the name of any

libel again.

How Make 1t Serve a Two-Fo1d Purpose
The Economy and Necessity of 1t In This
Form.
To the Editor of the Globe.
The wise and economical thing for this COM
munity to do relative to the High school build
ing, SO imperatively demanded for public and
sanitary reasons, is to erect building large
enough to accommodate the grammar grades
Of the district schools, as we'll as the High
school scholars. That would relieve the pres
sure on certain overcrowded buildings would
save the city the necessity of putting up new
district school house, and would meet the ne
cessities of the case in way satisfactory to all
1t would prove bad thing for St. Paul, just as
she is waking up with new public spirit and
pushing her civic interests to have it go forth
to the world that she "set down. on the pro-
ject of High school building. 1t would lose
us desirable residents, retard our growth, in
jure our reputation abroad for intelligence and
enterprise. When Minneapolis dcdicates her
handsome High school building, it will be an
invaluable advertisement of her advantages
and fame. When st. Paul decides to have no
High school building she will be put down as
retrograding, and citizens desiring educa-
tioual facilities for their children will move
away or avoid locating here. M.

WHEEfvery little doubt exiats relative to
the Importance of ves&gating affairs at
saltwater, the attack of Bill Kings paper
upon Gen. Sibley and Attorney General Will
son was SO unjust and indecent that it is
sreacting upon that ibellous concern. These
gentlemen have replied to the the ISLANDERS
uttered against them in interviews published
elsewhere in this issue of the GLOBE. The
reply was scarcely necessary, as those gen.
.Slemen are too reputable to be harmed bv
an attack from such source. The intima-
ton that Gen. Sibley was dishonesty employ-
ed by Seymour, Sabin & Go. to betray the State
is so infamous, that the SANDER repels ITSELF
The only wonders that even q concern so reok-
less in regard to truth and decency as Bill
Kings affair, should make such yillainous
assault on Gen. Sibley. A political motive.
and in the case Of Gen. Hubbard personal
motive can be found for assailing the others,
but this motive does not apply to Gen. Sib-
ley, who is in private life and in no manner
before the public. Attorney General Wilson
and Gen. Hubbard were not in favor of r.
electing Ramsey to the Senate the last time
he was candidate, and that was an unpar-
donable sin in the eyes of the ey-post-
master. He has followed all of
Ramsey's opponents with the ferocity of the
bloodhound ever since, and will probably
continue to do SO as long as visions of the
postofice, lost to sight but to memory dear,
fit before him.

GRANT AND CASTELAR,.
Russell Yoatng's Gorgeous account of the
Meeti,ag0f Ttvo Great Statesmen

Russell Yoatng's Gorgeous account of the
Meeting of Ttvo Great Statesmen.
Correspondence New York Herald
There were officers in high grade who
awaited the coming of General Grant. They
came directly from the King, who was at
Vittoria, some hours distant. Orders had
been sent to receive our ex-President as a
captain general of the Spanish army. This
question of how to receive an ex-President
of the United States has been the source of
tribulation in most European cabinets, and
its history may make an interesting chapter
some day. Spain solved it by awarding the
ex-President the highest military honors.
More interesting by far than this was the
meeting with Mr.. CASTELAR,, the ex-president
on his way to San Sebastian. AS soon as
General Grant learned that he was among
the group that gathered on the platform he
sent word that he would like to know him
Mr.. CASTELAR, was presented to the general,
and there was brief and rapid converse
ton. The General thanked Mr.. CASTELAR, for
all that he had done for the United States,
for the many eloquent and noble words he
had spoken for the North, and said he would
have been very much disappointed to have
visited Spain and not met him; that there
was no man in Spain he was more anxious
to meet. CASTELAR, is still young man. He
has large dome-ike head, with an arching
brow that recalls in it's outline the brow of
Shakespeare. He is under the average
height, and his face has no covering but
dark, dropping moustache. You note the
Anathusian type, swarthy, mobile and glow
ing eyes that seem to burn with the sun of
Mediterranean. Castelar's presidency was
tempest with Carlism in the north and
communism in the south, and the monarchy
everywhere. How he held it was marvel, |
for he had no friend in the family of ma
tions but America, and that was cold |
friendship. But he kept Spain free and |
executed the laws and indicated the ma
tional sovereignty, and set on foot by his |
incompatible eloquence the spirit which
pervades Spain to-day, and which, sooner or
later, will make itself an authority which
even the cannon of General Pavia cannot
challenge. 1t was picture, not without in
structive features, this of CASTELAR,, the orator
and ex-president of Spain, conversing on the
platform of the frontier railway station with
Grant, the soldier and ex-President of the
United States. s'When I reach Madrid,''
said the general, ~ want to see YOU ri
will come at any time," said CASTELAR,. The
only man Ill Spain who received such mes
sage from General Grant was Emilio Caste
lar.

The Chicago Times denounces the ar
rearages of pensions bill, which passed the
Senate on Thursday, as worse than the
back pay steal of several years ago. Others
think differently, however. The reasons for
It's passage wiNbe adequate to most people.
The original pension law provided that if the
application was not acted upon within five
years from the date of disability, the pen
sion was barred. Through ignorance of the
law, negligent attorneys and many other
reasons, there were many worthy persons de-
MED the pension which the spirit of the
pension act intended they should have.
This was great hardship to many persons
who were in equity entitled to pensions.
The bill that has passed has simply repaired
this injustice, and we are glad that none of
the Democrats in either house voted to con-
tinue it.
