Il GOOD CITIZEN GONE.


BY the death of Geo. Culver, st. Paul
loses one of her sterling citizens. He was
quiet, unostentatious gentleman, and
during residence of thirty-one years in
Minnesota he had endeared himself to a
multitude of friends. Mr.. Culver was the
soul of honor, man who always fulfilled
his pledges and whose business standing was
second to none in the State. Though having
host of friends, he was intimate with but
few, and those who knew him best loved
and respected him the most. A man of
even temper, kind hearted almost to a fault,
he leaves wide circle to cherish his memory
and lament his departure. Peculiarly
reticent in regard to his business or private
affairs, and not given to ostentation, his kind
ness and generosity we're only known to the
recipients, but many one who has received
the quiet aid of Geo. Culver can testify to
his goodness of heart and the possession of
that broad, liberal spirit which led him to
aid his fellow men.
Col. Culver ranked as one of our best cit
liens, and his death is a public calamity.
He will be greatly missed throughout the
city, and the sorrow owing to his demise
will not be confined to his immediate family
friends. It is universal.

THE NEW SENATE.
The Splendid Record Of Senator George s.
HO9xafOn

The Splendid Record Of Senator George s.
Houston.
To the Editor of the Globe.
BELLE PLANE, March IL, 1879.-In to-
days GLOBE, in the article reviewing ''the
new Senate you have been led into an error
as far as Senator George S. Houston, of Ala
bama, is concerned. The article refers to
him as Gen. Houston. If not corrected it
might lead to unjust criticism. Gov. Hous-
cousin of Gen. Sam Houston, of Texas.
Gov. Houston for nearly half century
ranked among the most able jurists of Ala
bama, and for twenty three years continu-
ously represented the State in Congress, and
was chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee for some eight years. He was always
a strong Union man, Democrat of the old
school, and strict constructionist, and
always opposed to all jobbing and special
legislation. When his State went out of the
Union, Gov. Houston was the last man from
the South to vacate his seat, and with
heavy, sad heart went to his constituency,
that he had always SO ably represented.
After the war, and the utter prostration of
the State by carpet-bag and bayonet rule, the
property owners of the State cast about to
find a man to bring order out of chaos. All
eyes turned to the ssOld Bald Eagle" as he
is lovingly called by the people of his State;
and after terrible struggle he was elected
as Governor by about 10000 majority, with
a legislature nearly one-half colored citizens
of African descent. He asked the legislature
for commission of three men to treat with
the creditors of the State and arrive at some
basis by which its debt of nearly 100000
could be equitably settled. Carpet-bag rule
had created over $30,O00,O00 Of this debt;
and in the PROSTATE condition of the State it
could never be met. The legislature re-
sponded to his suggestion and created the
commission with the Governor as one, and
chairman. He took the ground that "fraud
vitiated all contracts" With this as his
watchword he set about the work, and salts
factorilys with all parties took up the old car
pet-bag bonds, and reduced the debt to
$ll ,OOO,O 900. This master stroke of his
hnanciering, in 1876 re elected him Governor
again by nearly As, 900 majority; and would
have sent him to the United States Senate
instead of the talented and brilliant Gen.
John L. Morgan, but the people of the State
with one voice cried, "We must keep him
Governor another term, till State matters are
settled on firm basis, and he shall be the
successor of that carpet-bag Spencer, of
Iowa." The State has kept its pledge. The
Governor is now past his ''three-score and
ten," but still in full possession of his physi-
cal and int lectual abilities. And now, as
Senator, his acts hereafter will be his own
best eulogy. That you will correct the arti-
Gle alluded to as far as the Senator is con-
cerned, you will much oblige his friend,

BULLDDZING HaYES.

novel plan of procuring Mr.. Hayes ap-
proval of the political legislation contem-
plated at the extra session of Congress has
been suggested. It is to divide the legisla-
lative, executive and judicial appropriation
bin into three separate acts, and to attach
the political amendments to the executive
bill. This would compel Mr.. Hayes, if he
vetoed the political legislation, to cut off his
own allowance, and those for his secretaries
and clerks, as we'll as for the maintenance Of
his establishment.
There are some vital objections to this
plan. In the first place it would be undigni-
fed-a form of bulldozing that the Demo
cratic party ought to scorn to adopt. It
would be mark of disrespect to the act,no
President which, though deserved, ought not
to be inflicted by the national legislature.
Even though the Republican party has been
guilty of such discourtesy towards President
Johnson, the Democrats should show the
country that they are superior to such ex-
pedients, but rely upon the justice of their
course to secure approval. 1t is, besides, un-
precedented. From the establishment If
the government these three appropriations
have been included in one bill, and to
separate them now for partisan purpose
would be establishing precedent that some
time might return to plague tbs inventors.
It would be impolitic for all the reasons
above stated, and in addition for the very
potent reason that it might lead to the i'm
preston in the minds of the public that the

Democratic party is moro anxious to
serve its partisan ends than for the good Of
the country at large.
We trust that the Democrats, at the forth
coming session of Congress, will not allow
the hot-headed of the party to carry them
away. At this juncture cool men should
come to tho front and hold the more i'm
pulsive in check. No ill-considered legisla-
ton should be attempted. It should be
borne in mind that the mon who assemble
next week will act for the future as we'll as
for the present Upon the wisdom of their
conduct will depend the success of the party
in the Presidential election next year. One
single blunder may prove fatal then and for
all time to come. Care should be taken not
to abuse the power that rests in the hands
of tbs majority. A calm, temperate, though
decided course will prove of advantage to
tho country as we'll as the party. Injudicious
haste and extreme craftsmanship will convince
the public that the Democratic party is no
improvement over the party that has just
been discarded.

LET IT ALONE.

It is reported from Washington that some
of the Democrats in the House and Senate
contemplate reviving the Potter committee,
OF, rather, appointing new committee to go
into some branches of the electoral inquiry
that were not fully examined by the COM
mittee of the late House. We trust that this
will not be done, for it can serve no good
purpose, and would only be undertaken to
serve some PERSONS private interests.
The report of Mr.. Potter is before the
public. The evidence upon which he based
his conclusions has been read by every per-
son who cares enough about the matters in
controversy to form an opinion. There is
no question as to the facts. It has been
proved beyond question that the vote of
Florida was cast for Mr.. Hayes through the
most shameless frauds that ever disgraced
the country. The ballot boxes were stuffed
with illegal votes that were returned for the
Republican candidates, while in other dis
tricts Of the State hundreds of ballots legal
ly cast and returned for the Democratic can
didates, we're thrown out by the canvassing
board for no valid reason whatever. It has
been further shown that every man who par
ticipated in these frauds has been rewarded
by Mr.. Hayes or his subordinates with lucra-
tive offices, thus establishing prima facie
case of bribery and subornation of perjury.
In the case of Louisiana it has been con-
clusively shown that previous to the election
a conspiracy was formed to invalidate the
returns of several important parishes which,
it was known, would give majority for the
Democratic ticket. This conspiracy was
carried out, and the returning board sub
missively obeyed the dictation of Sherman
and his confreres in throwing out the vote
of such other parishes as were necessary to
create a majority for Hayes. This was &C.
complished by means of the most apparent
perjury, SO unblushing that every decent
citizen has been compelled to hide his head
with shame. The testimony as to these facts
was so conclusive that no room for doubt re-
manned.
All these things have been established.
What more can be done? Certainly no adj
ditional evidence that can be obtained can
convince the public any more firmly that Mr..
Hayes holds his office by virtue of fraud.
His title to that Office has twice been affirm
ed-once by the 8 to 7 electoral commission
and once by resolution of Congress. To
attempt to displace him would be step
fraught with danger to the peace of the
country. IN the two years he has yet to
serve he Will be powerless to do much harm,
for ha can be held in check by Congress
that is opposed to him in both branches.
When he retires at the end of his term it
will be forever, and he will carry with him
the excavations of the whole people. Lei
the foul business rest where it is. No good
can come from stirring up such an odorous
subject any further.

We are inclined to the belief that when
Shakespeare wrote his Midsummer Nights
Dream he cast his horoscope and Witness
ed here in America crowds of tens of thou
sands of people hocking to see a half a
dozen men walk around track for six DAYS
and six nights, weary, halt and sick-almost

straightway put into the mouth of one of

lean people. Men put themselves in train

luxuries and many of the necessities of life,
task their physical endurance to it's utmost
limit, and then start on a tramp lasting for
week at a time. They are denied sleep,
and can scarcely partake of nourishment,
and are often carried from the track half
dead from fatigue, with limbs swollen and
blistered from the unwonted and unnatural
exercise, and die before their time. There
are thousands of people who call this sport
and flock to see it, looking on at the agonies
of the men who plod along, without SO much
as thought for their sufferings, and the
newspapers are burdened with reports of the
progress of the weary journeyings till every
decent person is constrained to protest
against the sickening mess.
Is it not about time that this revolving
sport was stopped? If men were to attempt
to drive horse as great distances as they

IN INVOLVEMENT RULE.

If the Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune is to be believed, the Dem
ocrats in the Senate will be in an unpleasant
predicament when that body is organized
next week. According to this authority the
appointment of all of the officers, from the
secretary of the Senate down, will have to be
submitted to the Vice President for approval,
and if he disapproves of the changes, they
cannot be made. It seems that in 1854,
when the Democrats had control of the SEN
ate, special committee was appointed to
take into consideration several resolutions
and orders of the Senate providing for the
appointment and prescribing the duties of
its officers, to report rules and regulations
fixing the number of such officers and other
subordinates, classifying them, fixing their
compensation, prescribing the mode of ap-
pointment to and dismissal from office, and
efecting such organization generally as bet
ter to insure their responsibility and eff
cheney. This committee among other things
reported a resolution declaring that when re-
moyals are made, such removals shall
first to be approved by the President of the
Senate. The resolution was adopted, and
the Senate has ever since acted in accordance
with it. Without repeal of this rule the
Democrats will be powerless to remove
single one of the officers who serve them un-
less Mr.. Wheeler shall consent. This NAV
prove decided inoonvenie nee on the organ
ization of the Senate, but means will doubt
less be devised by which the difficulty will be
overcome.
It has been the theory of the several par
ties that to the victors belong the spoils of
office. The Democrats having been subsist-
ing on husks for so long, are perhaps not to
blame for desiring, now that victory has
been won, to get all the spoils that rightfully
belong to them. They have been patient in
adversely, and perhaps even Mr.. Wheeler
will not find it in his heart to deprive them
of the small solace that the Senate offices
will give them. If he refuses to consent to
the changes that are demanded by the alter
cd condition of affairs, it will simply compel
the Senate to amend the rules by placing the
choice of officers where it ought to reside
in the hands of the men whom those Off
GERS are to serve. There may be a little
temporary annoyance, but it can only be
temporary, and after it shall have been set
sled, everything will work smoothly, and the
hearts of a couple of hundred Democrats will
be made glad by enjoying the ecstatic bliss of
holding government Office.
