THAT HOUSE RENT IEEM.

THAT HOUSE RENT ITEM.
The GLOBE appears to have irritated the
Minneapolis newspapers by calling atten-
ton to the fact that Gov. Pillsbury has been
receiving $500 per year from the State for
house rent, while he has never lived in st.
Paul at ALL but has occupied his residence at
Minneapolis as usual. We do not wonder
they squirm over the publicity given this
matter, for it places Gov. Pillsbu1y in an
unenviable light. His Tribune ad-
mits the fraud by abjectly apologize
ing and exousing the matter, and finally
comedies that after he had drawn the money
as ''rent'' for two years, Gin order that there
could be no dispute about the intention of
the legislature, the item was transferred and
made part of the governors regular salary"
Now does any one suppose this $500 is
any the less fraud because it is made a part
of the salary. The salary was $4,000. A
poor man was elected governor, and as he
had to remove to st. Paul he was allowed, in
addition to his salary, house, which the
State rented at the rate of $500 per year.
In the course of events q millionaire
is elected Governor. He does not remove to
the capital at all. He has no hospitality to
extend as Governor of the State; no expense
of keeping up an establishment, but still he
draws his $500 per annum as ''rent'' for two
years, and then seeks to whip the devil
around the stump by stating that it is now
part of the salary.
It was the intention of the legislature
originally to use this money legitimately to
enable poor man to live with some degree
of decenoy in st. Paul while occupying the
Governors chair. The moment cir
cumstances changed the occasion
for the appropriation ceased. There
was no more reason for continuing
the appropriation with Pillsbury in Office
than there would be to continue to appropri-
ate money to build an insane asylum after
the building had once been completed and
paid for. 1t is simply disreputable grab.
If Gov. Pillsbury had endeavored to secure
an increase of salary from $4,000 to $3, 800
it would quite likely have failed, but because
he was taking $500 as 'rent'' money,
though he did not live in St. Paul, he sue
ceeded in getting his salary increased to cover
the rent. There is the further fact that
prices have fallen fifty per cent. since Horace
Austin was elected Governor and the origi-
nal appropriation was made. If the money
was used legitimately now for the rent of
gubernatorial mansion, four to five hundred
dollars would be as much as $500 then.
House rents, and everything else, have been
through John Sherman's squeeze since the
Inauguration of the $500 'rent'' item, and
the grab of the present incumbent is disrep-
utable and discreditable in every way. In
other words it "unfrocks Honest John.',

HEADQUARTERS 1N-THE-SADD1E Pope has
complimented Captain Dodge, the COM
mander of the negro company of cavalry
that rescued Captain Payne, in general or
ders from the department of Missouri. In
all his military experience Pope has never
received the praise that he bestows upon
Dodge. The reason probably is that Pope
never performed as gallant deed as did
Dodge, unless his perjured charge against
Fitz John Porter can be construed as bearing
some resemblance to Dodge's charge upon
the redskins.

IT is not generally known how patriotic
the present Republican governor of Wiscon-
sin, who is a candidate for reelection, is.
1t will be remembered that during the war
he was State Senator from Dodge county,
and was very enthusiastic in his support of
all war measures. He was elected State
treasurer before the close of the unpleasant
ness, and was one of the most extreme of
the radicals. It transpires, however, that
during all this time he was not Citizen of
the United States, and only foreswore his
allegiance to the queen of Great Britain and
Ireland in the year 1870, when all danger of
being called upon to defend his adopted
country had passed. He is a sample Re-
publican, and deserves we'll at the hands of
his party.

The ticket was materially strengthened

nomination for Lieutenont Governor, one of
our most popular citizens, Mr.. E. P. Bar
mum, of Sank Centre, present chairman of
the board of county commissioners. Mr..
Barnum is q gentleman of fine executive
ability, sound judgment, and keen percep-

ing officer he has few superiors. OF the two
candidates, in our judgment. Mr.. Barnum is
by far the best fitted to discharge the duties
of Lieutenant Governor. While Mr.. Bar
num cannot be compared to his opponent
as political fgurer, he is by far Mr.. Gill

though not prominently known as
an office holder, Mr.. Barnum has q
very large personal aoquaintanceship

make itself felt in his favor at the polls. To

thus selecting one of the prominent mem

the State ticket, it is in turn the duty of all
our Democrats to labor faithfully for the

we believe will, give 1900 majority to the

A CRY FOR VENGEANCE.

Letter From agent MeeEel's D0ugIter.
Following is the text of Rose Meeker's let
ter, published in the Denver Tribune. It is
the facts
GREEDY, OCT. 9.--To the editor of the ZrS-
6une: I, as the eldest daughter of the mar
tyred Agent Meeker, of White River agency,
wish to thank you for all the kind words that
have been said in the Tribune of my good
father, and also to express my feelings in q
limited way, about this horrible massacre.
Had there been half as much expedition and
force put in operation from the time of my
fathers calling for troops until the battle as
there has been since the battle, this horrible
massacre would never have occurred. The
government, with its slow movements, has
let my father be murdered, when it could
have been prevented. My father wrote Gov.
Pitkin on Sept. 10, that his and all the lives
at the agency we're in peril, and requested
troops. After three weeks delay so small q
detachment was sent US, it was
overcome, giving the Indians more
power than previously. Had the
cowboys of Colorado been called on Sept.
10 they would have gotten there in time to
save the lives at the agency, and they would
have made so clean work of the red devils
that it would have been hard to find one
alive to-day. The life of one common white
man is worth more than the lives OF all the
Indians from the beginning of their creation
until the present time, and yet such a man
as my father, with brains, intellect, and
power to move the thoughts of men, had
his life ignominiously put out by the hand
of savage foe, whose life or soul is not
worthy of dog, and no power in all the
land to stay the deed. What magnani-
nous government we have, to pamper a set
of creatures whose existence should have
been thing Of the past long ago. Oh, my
father! Could but have died in your stead !:
My protector, my hope and joy Oh, the
broken hearts of widows, and daughters, and
sisters who to-day, this hour, mourn the
loss of their dear martyred ones, who we're
their support, love, life, and their all, now
gone from their sides forever, with only sor-
row and desolation for their comforter
through life. Who can pay the price of this
mighty woe? Truly the blood of the mar
tyred ones cries out for vengeance; and shall
the voice of anguish be heard?

We could fill page Of our paper with words
of praise and commendation of Hon. Edmund
Rice, the Democratic nominee for Governor,
from large exchange list and quotations from
all over the State without regard to political
party utilization. This is creditable to the
journals and is doubtless the honest sentiment
of the papers in question. Now it remains to
be seen if an honest, good man, endorsed from
one end of the State to the other is to be beaten
by honest ca John Pillsbury.

AN effort is being made by Charley Gill
man and his strikers to belittle the candi-
dacy of MIR. Barnum for lieutenant Gov
ernor, because he has not, like Charley,
been an inveterate ofioe-seeker and office
holder. Mr.. Barnum has not sought public
place, and it is to his credit that he is pri
vate citizen and not brawling politician.
He was not seeker for the place he now
holds, but on the contrary modestly with
drew his name after the first ballot in the
convention. His friends replaced him in
nomination, and the convention ratified
their action. The paper published in his
own oounty-St. Cloud TSmes-and the
Little Falls Transcript, in the adjoining
county, give their testimony to Mr.. Barnum's
qualifications, and we reprint their comments
elsewhere, that none may be misled by the
Gilman froth and falsehood. Barnum's
candidacy means business and his election.

The Minneapolis Pioneer Press makes a
disreputable appeal to the local prejudices of

to fire the Minneapolis heart it declares
that the the GLOBE styles Gov. Pillsbury q
"dishonest thief" It put the words in quota
ton marks as though they were actually taken
from this paper, and with this willful lie as
base makes its mean local appeal. The
GLOBE has applied no such epithet, or any
thing that could be tortured into such an ex-
preston, to Gov. Pillsbury or any
one else. We object both in be-
half of the English language and
common sense to be SO quoted. If We
have occasion to call any man q ''thief'' we
shall not style him "dishones5 thief" He

Amusement Week.
OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

OOh MEAL f6E61DENIs
This week promises to be an suspicious
one as far as amusements are concerned.
This evening the John Dillon party open at
the Academy of Music in the new play .'Our
Next President" This play is one con-
structed from the we'll known poem of John
Phillip Stoner, entitled "Robert of Wood
leigh" The character, Silas Pittibone, has
been written in the play to give Mr.. Dillon
an opportunity to display the peculiar style
of humor to the best advantage. The role is
very funny and Mr. Dillon keeps the house in
a roar while Oh the stage. The support is
excellent, embracing Mr.. J. w. Blaisdell,
who appears as Alfred Harwood, Miss Louise
Dillon, who appears as Millie Ellsworth, a
character well adapted to her style. The
balance of the cast is strong, and the play
will be rendered in q manner that should,
and doubtless will, fill the house to over
flowing.
WIDOW BEDOTT.
On Wednesday and Thursday evenings the
Academy Of Music will be occupied by
the "Widow Bedott" combination.
Mr.. Neil Burgess, as the widow, is said to
have created character worthy of place
beside Jeferson's Rip Van Wrinkle, or Ovens
Scion Single. Elder Snifaes and the widow
are the central figures, and by their quaint
ways, odd and sharp sayings, create an i'm
mense amount of fun.
