THE STRUGGLE IN ASTA.

The future of the continent of Asia is be-
coming fruitful subject of discussion in
Europe, and the progress of events there is
being closely watched by politicians, states
men and publicists. It is very evident that
a struggle for supremacy in Asia is now 90
ing on between the two great powers of
Europe, Great Britain and Russia, and the
indications are many that ere many years the
whole of that vast continent will owe allegi-
ance to one or the other of these nations.
A glance at the map will show how near this
result has been accomplished. England in
the south and Russia in the north are grad
ually extending their boundaries and absorb
ing principally after principally, so that
to-day there is substantially but one country
in all Asia that is not tributary to one or the
other of these European dynasties.
Siberia is of itself an immense empire,
comprising about two.ffths of the entire
continent. But, not content with this, Rus
STA has been working her way southwark,
and in the course of the past five years has
succeeded in oonquering and practically an
nexing the state of Turkistan, bordering on
British India, and is even now seeking q
pretense for q war with China through
which q part of that empire can be seized
upon.
England has not been idle, The treaty of
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1879-10-30

Berlin gave her practical control of the
whole of Asiatic Turkey, while the acquisi.
ton of the Suez canal gave her q FREEDOM
mating influence in Arabia. The recent war
in Afghanistan has resulted favorably to the
British arms, and, by the deposition of the
ameer and the appointment of his fve-year-
old son in his stead, British proteotorate
has been virtually established in that coun-
try. This places Persia between two coun-
tries that acknowledge British dominion,
and the emissaries Of that government are
now actively at work with view to
supplanting Russian influence at Teheran.
This has not proved very difficult
task, for recent reports from P.rsia convey
tbs intelligence that the shah has cut entire
ly loose from the Russian ambassadors, and
shows every favor in his power to the Brit
ish. This is but a step towards the absorp-
ton of the whole country by the rapacious
Britons. The contemplated railroad from
the Mediterranean to the Persian gulf will
consummate the substantial conquest of the
country and it's consolidation with the Brit
ish empire. Thus England will not only
extend her own territory but place another
obstacle in the way of her great rivals cher
ished scheme of obtaining ocean footing.
It is not probable that, after the present
war in Afghanistan, England W ill be obliged
to resort to arms to complete her conquests
The control of the Suez canal and the Red
Sea gives her commercial supremacy over
Arabia as we'll as Egypt. The devel opment
of Asiatic Turkey by the construction of a
railroad down the valley of the Euphrates to
the Persian gulf would increase this power,
and at the same time place Persia under her
control commercially. With England pres
ent commercial dependence means ultimate
territorial annexation.
It is not to be wondered at that, with such
gigantic schemes on foot, England and Rus
STA should be jealousy watchful of each 9TH
er's movements. Indeed, before the result
that now seems inevitable is reached, it
would surprise no one if there should be
long, bitter and disastrous war between
them. Public sentiment in both countries
is ripe for such an event, which may be pre-
cipitated at any moment by an unguarded
word or some overt act. Great Britain has
certainly got the best of the division thus
far made, and is in far better condition to
carry on campaign than Russia. But their
armies are getting ominously close. With
the British at Cabul and Herat, and the
Russians at Merv, any day may herald the
clash of arms, which will decide the question
of supremacy on the continent of Asia.

MOVE HIM.

OF all the political humbugs which have
afflicted Minnesota, ex-Gov. and Railroad
Commissioner Marshall is entitled to take
the front rank. He has been pensioner on
the Republican party for nearly twenty
years, and whenever any rewards were to be
bestowed Marshall has always been found
with hat in hand and hand extended, to catch
the crumbs which might fall in his way. In
this way he has been able to hold an almost
continuous position at the public crib and
he now comes up smiling as usual asking
for more.
1t was public misfortune that the Office
was not abolished when the effort was made
last winter. So far as its usefulness is con-
cerned it might as we'll have been abolished
when Marshall was first elected. He has
done nothing for the State or the public.
and we doubt whether there ever was more
useless and aimless Office than he has made
his present position. His chief and only
aim has, apparently, been to draw his salary
and render no equivalent whatever therefor.
BY means of certain sanctimonious air he
seems enabled to impress people with the
idea that the tax payers owe him a living,
and he conducts his political confidence game
with marked success.
1t would be happy day for Minnesota if
the gallant Col. Colvilf should be elected as
the successor Of this arrant humbug. Col.
Colvill can never be repaid by grateful
people for his services at time when it cost
something to be patriotic. He wears no
shoddy, sham brevet title, but is every inch
brave and honorable man, bearing in his
crippled body the best evidence of the faith
that is in him.

Two Damsels From the Upper Woods Ac-
commodated With Ten Days In Jail.
Two Minneapolis sssocial evils'' took in
Third street yesterday afternoon on hurrah,
and made themselves conspicuously sociable
with sidewalk pedestrians around the Mer-
chants hotel. They were seated in buggy
behind horse which had been apparently
hard driven, were calling out hilarious
~ and making acquaintance,
whether the object was 7aozens
or volens, or in any other frame of mind.
At this juncture Capt. Clark came along, and
with the assistance of Officer Kenealy got
women and vehicle to the station, where the
women were dumped out, the horse tethered
outside, and the girls taken inside. They
were pretty specimens of depraved
and degraded females. One was
tall and slender, and her length
being communicated with map of red hair.
she for all the world looked like campaign
torch at mass meeting, and was just as un-
steady, from the same cause, whisky. The
other dame was of the Fourth of July order,
exploding every few moments with ribald
talk and slang. They were asked to register,
but declined to give their names, and
were conducthd to cell. There
they cooled off, thanks to the favorable
weather, and after awhile were conducted
to the municipal court. There the aurora
borealis girl gave her name as Grace Wilson
and the explosive female shot off her name
a. Mollie Houston. Both showed the marks
of the disorderly conduct with which they
were charged, and each was fined SIS and
costs. They were unable to pay, and the
fine and costs sent them over to Jail, under
the guidance of Officers Kenealy and Lowell,
for ten days each. The horse and buggy
belonged to Capt. Russell, of Minneapolis,
and having been telephoned about the
escapade, he sent down for his property.

Vote against Marshall.
" [Mankato Review.1

During the past year the Revse0 had oc-
casion to severely criticise the railroad man
agement of this State, and especially of
those corporations doing the carrying trade
of the southwest. We then stated and be-
lieved that many of the complaints made by
the people, and upon which our criticisms
were based, might have been remedied if not
prevented by careful, just and impartial
supervision, by the State railroad commits
sioner. This belief, we think, is shared by
the people without distinction of party.
The present commissioner, OK Gov. Marshall,
is candidate for reelection. If successful,
we may reasonably expect that no change
of policy will take place, the railroads
will continue their policy of discrimina-
ton and extortion, and the people be without
redress, and powerless. They have chance,
however, to change this policy by electing
Col. Colville, who is Gov. Marshall's oppo-
nent. He is man of the people, whose
sympathies are with them, and If elected
will protect their rights to the full extent of
the law. The railroads will, quite naturally,
support Gov. Mershall. The people should
support Col. Colville. Will they do it? If
they do not, we hope that we shall hear no
more complaints against railroad companies,
and such verdict must be accepted as a
public justification and approva. of the past
policy. If they desire to condemn that pol
icy. now is the time to do 1.-THE only OPP
portunity for two years. Remember this,
and vote accordingly next Tuesday.
