THE DOG NUISANCE.

The first thing with which stranger visit
ing st. Paul is struck is the superabundance
of dogs that roam the streets. He sees them
everywhere. Walking along the streets he
stumbles over them, lying lazily upon the
sidewalk, or has to dodge them as they go
racing up or down. There are all sorts of
dogs-curs of high and low degree-grey-
hounds, bulldogs, Newfoundland, spitz,
lack-and-tans, st. Demands, poodles and
mongrels. Every second man he meets is
followed by dog; every child he sees is
sporting with from one to half dozen dogs !;
at every street corner he finds dozen of
dogs almost every Office he enters he finds
the omnipresent dog. He enters gate, and
is greeted with the barking and yelping of
dogs, and sometimes, even after he has PEN
etrated to the parlor he finds dog there.
Some of them look good-natured, others fe-
rocious, but few of them attractive. St.
Paul people are emphatically dog-loving
people. It is not the slightest exaggeration
to say that there are in tnis city at least two
dogs for every man, woman and child, or a
total dog population of one hundred thou
sand.
Though fanciers delight to speak of the
dog as ''man's ever faithful friend" we are
inclined to the belief that st. Paul has toe
much of that sort of friendship. A little Of
it will 60 great way. Families who have
scarcely food enough to eat or clothing
enough to wear, manage to keep from two tc
half dozen dogs. They deny themselves
comforts that they may feed lot of worth
less ours, pay the city license upon them, ane
care for them with tender solicitude. They
render night hideous by their yelpings
howlings and barkings, and make it danger
Gus for children to play upon the streets
Dog-fghts are of as common occurrence a.
political discussions on election day, and no
body who traverses the street is safe from
being bitten by some miserable cur that il
hardly worth the bullet that ought to be sen
through his carcass. We are emphatically
dog-infested- "a dog-ridden community, Will
more ours than we have paving stones.

SUNDAY NEWSPAPERS.

SONDdI MI VS I'll EfLSs
A few months ago, the Philadelphia Times
commenced the issue of Sunday edition.
Heretofore, although Philadelphia stands as
the second city in the country, no paper is
sued over six days per week. This was
characteristic of the staid, slow going old
city. No sooner had the Times INDUCED in
this stroke of enterprise, than it found that
there was great demand for Sunday paper
and in an article which we quote elsewhere
it very clearly demonstrates that no paper
can rank as first class, which does not have
such an issue. No city can take the front
rank which has second class humdrum
newspapers, and Philadelphia has been left
in the background for lack of enterprising
newspapers. The Times has done more to
bring Philadelphia to the front than any
one agency, as it is the first real neaospaper
ever established in the city.
In st. Paul the GLOBE inaugurated the
issue of 1865 papers per annum, and here as
elsewhere the desire for Sunday issue has
been abundantly proven. The Sunday
GLOBE compares favorably with any Sunday
paper in the country and is sought for with
avidity, which proves that it is appreciated.
As medium for advertising it is the best
issue in the week. The fact that st. Pau
has such paper as the GLOBE, published I'm.
interruptedly every day in the year, gives this
city prominence it could not otherwise OBJ
tain, When the GLOBE inaugurated this
movement New York, Boston, Cincinnati
Chicago, st. Louis and San francisco were
the only cities in the entire country having
papers with seven issues per week. st. Pau
was thus placed in the van of American
cities. In proportion to population no cit,
in the country is supplied with such news
papers as st. Paul. Neither Milwaukee, De
troit, Toledo, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Roches
ter, Albany or cities of that grade have
papers equal to the GLOBE. The news
paper is taken as the index of the city, an
hence st. Paul is to be congratulated upol
the advent of the GLOBE and the issue of
paper every day in the year.

WITHIN the week there has been, thanks
to the prodding of the GLOBE, marked in
crease in the building undertaken, and if the
present activity continues, st. Paul will
have accommodations, by the 1st of June,
for the five or six thousand additional
population that will be drawn hither by the
stimulation given to our manufactures. But
many of our largest property owners are
still backward. They hope that the i'm
provements now in progress will increase
the value of their property, without the ex-
penditure, on their part, of dollar. We
would suggest to these that while the value
of their vacant lots may be increased five
per cent. by the improvements on adjacent
property, their value would increase twenty
five per cent. if they would expend small
amount in the erection of modest domicile
for WOrkingmen.

TIE idiot who commands Washington
post of the Grand Army of the Republic,
has become indignant at the fact that small
company of Virginia militia which recently
visited the capital bore the State flag of Vir-
ginia upon which was emblazoned the coat
of arms and the motto of the State, s'Sic
seneper tyrannis." He secs in this harmless
matter an indication that the people of the
South, more especially of Virginia, glory in
the acaievment of Booth in assassinatine
Lincoln. Every sensible man in the country
however, will see in this fellows criticism
an evidence that the lunatic asylum has been
defrauded of an inmate who properly belongs
in one of it's wards.

A TELEGRAM from Constantinople says that
the report that on understanding exists be-
tween the Porte and khedive relative to the
latter's recent action is unfounded. We give
credence to the statement, for it begins to
appear that the khedive is anxious to shake
off the Turkish yoke, and has taken the sep
that has caused so much commotion from a
control of Egypt, and overturn the authority
of the Porte, But nothing will be done by
those countries without the most careful
consideration. The ultimate result will no
doubt be that Turkey will lose her hold on
the khedive's possessions, and that allegiance
will be transferred to the mora enlightened
and progressive powers named.

To the Editor of the Globe.
City Engineer Sewall went out of his way
at the meeting of the board of public works
on Friday to assail me, and declare that
had never completed city contract. This
statement is wholly false, as I have never
failed to complete contract awarded to me-.
Mr.. Sewall makes it almost impossible for a
contractor to do his work, and where he is
hostile to a contractor he resorts to all
means possible to make him lose money. If
friend has the contract he will construe
the specifications in one way, and if he is an
enemy of the contractor he will put on an
entirely different construction. could e1-
pose some of the doings of Mr.. Sewall, which
would probably surprise the public. I am
willing to have my record with the city
given to the public, and it will compare IA
vorably with the man who is using his Off
cial position to browbeat contractors in Or
der that he may the better conceal his own
delinquencies. DANIEL MULLEN.

A Tribute to Mr.. Laneprey's Memory.
To the Editor of the Globe:
I wish to add my tribute to the late
Morris Lamprey, and know from personal
experience the good and noble qualities of
his character. In the winter of 1864-5 he
was employed as an attorney to recover some
property which had been sold for taxes, and
was held by two women, one a widow
and the other the wife of SOL
der. When the case came into court
they were violently abusive of him, but in
spite of that he offered to raise subscription
and contribute one hundred dollars for their
aid. While he recovered the property for
the owner, they we're repaid every dollar of
their outlay, with interest, and he sent wo-
man to tender them the free use of the up
per portion of her home for their use, he
agreeing to pay the owner of the house
$40 per month rental. He carefully con-
cealed the fact that the offer came from him
or that he was to pay any rental, as he &C.
sired to render them the aid without allow
ing them to know it came from the man
they SO shamefully abused. I could cite
many other instances of his goodness and
generosity, which was always quietly and
unostentatiously performed, but give this
one as sample. speak from full heart
and as one who has lost

Valley Street-A WOrd OF 4dvice to Oar

T0ttey Street-A WOr0 OF 40Ulce to Oas7
City Fathers.
To the Editor of the Globe.
ST.. PAUL, April 12.-I see by your paper
that they propose opening Valley street
FROM jackson to Broadway. Now I can't
see the sense in opening Valley street at all
till they grade Mt. Airy street, for every
time it rains the water from Mt. Airy comes
down and washes it away, and the street
commissioner has to come and fix it up. If
our city fathers would only look into these
matters instead of going headlong into them,
as they generally do, they would prevent a
great deal of trouble to property owners. I
understand that petition was signed for the
opening of the street (but I did not see i) by
few of the property owners, but the
majority ere against it. Would it not be
well for our city fathers to consider the
grading of Mt. Airy, if they are 'bent on
grading" first, and then take up Valley; for
as long as Mt. Airy is ungraded, Valley
street will be washed away after every rain.
Now if the aldermen of the First ward pro-
pose to stand by the majority, they will see
that the thing is killed until Mr.. Airy is
graded. A PROPERTY owner.

MUNICIPAL ExrRAvAGANCE.

From Mr.. PumEE's researches 1t APP
pears:
..That the municipal deb, Of l%9 cities
representing all sections ul the United
States had increased from S22l,OUO,OUO
i'm IStG 10 Sil4.37S, sos IN 1876, and their
taxation from S,4.OOO WOtoSli2,O GOO 600,
while their population hail grown only
from 100000 to S.5Oo,OOO. The as
Srssrd value of the property in the
meanwhile had less than doubled ami
the actual market value had no doubt
increased i'm much smaller ratio still,
since IL = well known that the assessed

GENERAL GRANT.

During a recent trip to Washing.
ton and New York, we have been
surprised at the uuanimity of pub.
lie sentiment in favor of General
Grant for the Presidency in 1880.
We knew that he was a great favor
lite with the people, and we knew
that the feeling in Republican cir
cles in favor of his nomination in
1880 was strong, but we did
not appreciate the overwhelming,
irresistible tide in that direction.
1t is practically unanimous among
Republicans, and we have heard a
number Of Democrats declare their
intention to vote for Grant. We
believe, if he is a candidate, he viii
receive at least ten thousand more
votes in Tennessee than has ever
been given to a Republican candi-
date in the State. Unless he de-
clines, his nomination by the Re
publicans IS a foregone conclusion,
and his election Is certain. We DO
not know that he VIII be u candi-
date, but, if he is, he will be the
next President
