The 22d of July Conference.

II
To the Editor of the Globe.
The executive committee of the CONNER
cial conference, which met July z, will meet
at the st. Paul chamber of commerce on
Monday, July 81, at 2 o'clock to devise
programme of work for the conference to
meet on Tuesday, the 22d, at IL O'Clock at
the same place. The conference of July %
is to be an adjourned meeting of delegates
from the cities and towns of Minnesota and
the Northwest, and from such railroad COM
panies as are interested in organizing COM
mercial league and an Independent system
of transportation for the benefit of the en-
tire new Northwest with outlets by the lakes
and the Mississippi river, which will secure
competition in freights and choice of mar
kets for our products. The invitation is in
tended to be broad and general
enough to admit all who feel interest enough
to cooperate in such movement, and all
such are requested to attend the conference
without waiting for other credentials.
It is desirable, however, that cities and
towns will be sufficiently alive to their own
interests to appoint delegates either through
boards of trade, common councils, or called
meetings of citizens. The press of the State
we're requested by the conference to urge
upon their readers the importance of the
crisis which has come upon the State, and
the necessity for prompt and decided action
to avoid disasters of grave character.
j. w. MoCLUNa,
Chairman Executive Committee.

ing single sewer Shepherd spent half
million dollars, and it proved to be worth.
less. The present administration are spend
ing two hundred Thousand dollars in making
alterations on the same sewer, and compe-
tent engineers declare that this money
might as well be thrown away. Other work
is going on in charge of Lieut.. Hoxie, Who
achieved high reputation as an engineer by
marrying the pretty sculptures, Winnie Ream,
that is pronounced to be not only unneces-
sary but absolutely wasteful. The cost of
these sewers is estimated at about million
dollars for the present year.
While it is true that this expenditure and
the consequent waste is bnt q bagatelle
when compared with the vast sums thrown
away or stolen under the old regime, it is
important that it should be looked after, for
If it is allowed to continue unchecked it will
grow with rapidity that will be perfectly
astounding. The credit of the District is
now fair, but not as good as it ought to be,
but if the present wastefulness is per-
mltted, with q prospect of
soon rivaling that of the
Shepherd Cooke dynasty, the bonds will soon
depreciate, and Congress will be obliged
again to step IN and liquidate the indebted
ness. For this reason it is an affair that
concerns the whole country. The District,
though nominally an Independent corpora
ton, is in reality public charge, and what
ever deficiencies occur in it's finances must be
borne by the country at large. 1t is unfortu-
nate that the administration of affairs has so
frequently fallen into the hands of lot of
blood-suckers, but We suppose it is inevitable,
1T least under the present conduct of national
affairs. There seems to be no good reason
why Washington municipal affairs should
not be conducted on as economical basis as
those of st. Paul, but the former city seems
to have been turned over to lot of cormor-
ants as legitimate prey, with the remark, i'm
piled if not expressed 'There you have it;
make all you can out of it, We hope,
however, to see change of policy soon, SO
that the bonds of the District of Columbia
may remain, as they are at present, at pre-
MUM in the money market, even without
the backing of the general government to
sustain them.

national justice, and by motives Of the
truest political economy. To refuse to pay
the debt of the country in accordance with
the terms of the contract would be nation
al disgrace. To pay it, however, on terms
more, favorable to the creditor than are
called for by the bond, would be an injus-
tice to the country. AS there Is no neoes-
sity, there ought to be no excuse for the is
sue of any more interest bearing bonds, and
an attempt to do SO should be severely pun
ished.
On the subject of the issuance of cur
rency by the government alone, the views of
the GLOBE are we'll known, and require no
repetition at this time. We question, how
ever, the expedienoy of the substitution of
paper currency for the trade dol lars and
fractional silver currency, and we also doubt
whether it would be strictly just to re-im-
pose the tax on incomes. With these ex-
ceptions we see no occasion to find fault
with the platform. It is otherwise simply q
reproduction of the principles advocated by
the Democratic party for years past. What
need, then. is there for any body of
men holding such theories to go
outside of the Democratic party to urge their
enforcement ? The differences noted are
certainly not radical enough to warrant such
course.
Some men, they say, are born great; some
achieve greatness, and others have greatness
thrust apon them. We might paraphrase
this sentence by claiming that some men are
born fools, some achieve that estate, and
others have it thrust upon them. It see ms
to us that the Greenbackers are endeavoring
to justify the assertion contained in the
second proposition. They find strong
party victorious in the last few elections and
on the point of assuming power in every
branch of the national government, holding
the very views they themselves wish to see
adopted, and yet, because they differ from
that party on few points of utter immater-
iality, they have organized to oppose that
party which would, if placed in power, en-
force all the material principles to which
they hold. They are evidently very weak in
some respects, and fast approaching the con-
dition when they will deserve the epithet
limited at above.

The Western Union Telegraph company
will find little sympathy from the public in
the suits for injunotions brought against a
newly organized telegraphlc company. The
Western Union has for SO long enjoyed a
monopoly of the telegraphic business of the
country, and has perpetrated it's extortions
upon the people with such impunity, that it
has got the idea that the whole country is it's
especial and exclusive property. The St.
Louis judge who denied the injunction evil
IDENTIFY took a sensible course, and will not
only be sustained by the higher courts but
by the public at large.

A GOOD deal of anxiety is being manifest
ed in France at the demonstrations in Eng
land over the death of Prince Louis. It is
feared that the h ,nors accorded his remains
will create feeling in that county in favor
of the restoration of the empire, while the
high tribute paid to the dead prince by the
heir apparent to the British throne has
heightened this solicitude. There is little
doubt but the Prince of Wales would rejoice
to see the restoration of Bonapartism in
France, while the English people as whole
have for many years entertained more than
passing regard for the family. The anx-
iety of the republicans is, without doubt
we'll founded. England affords excellent
grounds from which the Bonapartists can
work upon the French people, and if the re-
publicans attempt to ostracise them they
will not be slow to take advantage of it.

THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.

A few days ago the GLOBE alluded to the
fact that series of bonds issued by the
District of Columbia had been sold at q
premium, and contrasted the situation now
with what it was during the corrupt and ex-
travagant administration of Boss Shepherd.
The same incident has suggested to the peo-
pie of Washington the advisability of in
quiring as to how much of their money was
squandered at that time, and also how much
is being squandered under the improved
order of things. To that end a petition has
been presented to Mr.. Hayes. asking that
he appoint board of civil and military en-
gineers of known reputation to take charge
of this entire subject and develop some plan
that will superssde the jobbery and incom-
potency that have been and are wasting hun
dreds OF thousands of dollars upon defect
i've and dishonest work. The petition re-
Guests that the new commission examine the
sewer question generally, and report up
on the practicability Of those now under
construction. It is alleged that in construct
