The GribbIe Carpet Case Decided and Con-
stable Lonegsn Discharged.
The case of the State against Thomas
Lonegan and William Miller, charged with
the larceny of a carpet, came up for hearing
in the police court yesterday afternoon. 1t
was alleged by the prosecution that defend
ants obtained forcible entry to the residence
of Mrs. Rosa Grlbble, on Harrington avenue,
Monday afternoon, and took therefrom a
carpet valued at 1922.
1t was shown that defendant, Lonegan,
while acting in the capacity of deputy sher-
if, visited the house to serve writ of exc
cution issued in the suit of A. FL. Lohlker
against Edwin r. Gribble. Lonegan and
Miller obtained entrance to the house, but
were refused admittance to the room con-
tanning the carpet. They showed their
authority and demanded the delivery of the
carpet.
At the time of the visit Mr.. Gribble was
absent from home, and the ladies were in
formed that if desirable they would await his
return before executing the writ. 10 this
the reply was made that Mr.. Gribble did not
own the property, after which they forced
an entrance to the room and took the carpet.
The court held that the evidence did not
substantiate the charge of larceny, and the
men were discharged.

City Hal Conference Yesterday

By appointment Mayor Dawson and City
Attorney Murray had a conference yester-
day with Rev. Samuel G. Smith, Mr.. D. r..
Noyes, and other citizens, the subjects of
which are not authoritativeIy stated, but are
we'll understood to have been regarding the
best means of enforcing decent respect for
the Christian Sabbath in St Paul and of re-
ducing if not extirpating the ''social evil. -
1t is also understood that the mayor and
city attorney expressed their readiness to
undertake the full enforcement of existing
laws whenever they were satisfied of their
power to enforce them-their objections to
doing more than they have done, if any,
being, that public opinion, on which the en-.
forcement of such laws largely depends.
would not be in favor of their rigid appli-
cation. The citizen conferees are said to
represent an organization which proposes to
institute prosecutions, if necessary, and
lively winter campaign may. accordingly be
expected.

SOME idiots have proposed that the Dem
ocrats liz the House should form coalition
with the Greenbackers With the purpose of
retaining control OF that body for the two
years ensuing. Such plan is Impractical
BILE in the first place for the reason that
the Greenbackers do not bold the balance of
power. In the next place all the honorable
Democrats would repudiate an alliance with
o lot of political adventurers who have in the
past proved recreant to all the pledges they
have ever made. Such an alliance would in
no way benefit the Dem ocracy.

The argument in favor of the election of
Aleck Ramsey to the Senate from Minnesota
is an insult to the young men of the State.
It is equivalent to the assertion that no per-
son has yet attained to the age of manhood
since territorial days who has brains enough
to properly represent the State at Washing
ton. 1t is an argument that is worthy of
and could emanate only from the ancient
fossils who imagine that all the wisdom of
the State is locked up in the brains of the
few old fogies who came here in advance OF
civilization and fancy that when they die
civilization and intellect alike will be blotted
out.

Retiring the Old BettOscs.
Army and Navy journal. |

Officers of the army will be pleased tc
learn that Gen. Meigs has come out fiat.
footed in favor of compulsory retirement
The general has written letter to the score
tary of state-or rather to the gentleman
who was secretary of state few wears
since-in which he gives gthe secretary and
President some wholesome advice as to mat
ters pertaining to the army. He tells the
secretary that the army is incumbered with
a lot of old gentlemen-over so years OF
aee-who are very much in the way of the
efficiency of the army, and the only way to
get rid of them is to retire them and Ia,
their places be filled by younger men.
etc.
1t is true that this letter was written to Mr.
Seward in April, 1861, or thereabouts, but
we must take it for granted that the general
is of the same opinion still.
This letter will be printed in the first vol
ume of the "Rebellion Record" which we
will be able to peruse in few weeks.
But it must not be considered that all the
general officers or the chiefs of bureaus are
of Gen. Meigs' way of thinking, for we have
before us letter supposed to be written nv
Gen. Marcy, in which opinions quite to the
contrary are expressed. The difference os

years, but that makes but little difference
as the opinions OF men of sound Judgment
do not change after they arrive at the age of
30-at least SO Bulwer said, and he is an
thority.
Now that this subject of army retirements
is so frequently brought to public notice, it
is not little amusing to note the inconsist-
encies between the opinions entertained
when they were young and those now enter
tanned by them, when they have reached the
age for retirement.
The opinion of these officers when thew
were in their physical and mental prime that
the army is incumbered with a lot of old
gentlemen over 60 years of age, and that
these are very much in the way of the eff
cheney of the army, should be accepted by
The President now and relieve him of any
embarrassment in making retirements.

lGath in Cincinnati Enquirer.
met Finley, of Minnesota, yesterday, for
merly Mr.. Tilden's confidential man in thu
campaign of 1876. Although he has some
belittlers, he is an observing fellow of con.
siderable experience. I asked him if there
was any Republican from the Northwest Ii.
able to 60 into the Cabinet of Garfield.
"Yes; Billy Window, of Minnesota. He
has four years yet to serve in the Senate, but

lie honors in Minnesota, and Window would
strengthen himself by making room for one
more in the Senate, and in the cabinet be

Presidency

"Oh, yes; he has got 1t bad. Window has
been very lncky fellow. but he may regard
his luck as ability. There is good opening
however, for a Presidential candidate in the
Northwestern States, which are solidly Re-
publican. My impression is that Mr.. Gar
field will have to make his administration
more Western than Eastern. He is better
appreciated better known in the Far West
than east of the mountains. The Western
States will give him the cordial support they
gave Lincoln, while in the East there will be
wirepullers working for the succession
Therefore. look to see the cabinet made up
of Western men in the majority g
'.Is Bill King, Mr.. Finley, very useful
man to Windom?''
"No, I don't think any such loud, reck.
less. rapacious fellow as King is of much use
to public man, or of much influence in 9
community. King made great deal OF
money in the lobby on the Northern Pacific
railroad, and in various schemes. Window
made most of his money on the Northern
Pacific railroad, and got out in time. King
had at one time the finest herd of blooded
cattle in the world. / suppose they cost him
about 100000. He had to go through
bankruptcy and sell everything. Window is
clean-fngered little fat man, with q face
of the digni6ed, benignant order.''
