Barnum Tomorrow.

The greatest of all the great shows is to
be with us tomorrow, and judging from the
furore created in other cities, the occasion
will give Us sort of supplementary Fourth
of July. In Chicago the veteran manager
seems to have had spirited contest with the
convention, and, as usual, came off victorious.
This excitement was not confined to the
masses, but extended to the more aristocratic
classes, men, women and children, who never
before attended circus exhibition. OF the
opening entertainment the Tribune says:
Barnum and humbug have long been asso-
ciated in the minds of the people, and yet he
has given the public less clap-trap and more
sterling value for their money than any other
Snowman. Indeed, we find in his exhibition n
characteristic distinguishing few circuses-he
advertises only what he means to exhibit, and
to describe what he does exhibit would take up
more space in the columns of newspaper
than tho political situstion will at present al
low. At the usual spot on the Lake Front the
first performance was given yesterday, and it
was largely attended. The tents cover an
enormous area, and the accommodations, 40 far
as cleanliness, comfort and attendance are con-
ccrned, are what might be expected from such
a veteran in the business as Barnum. The cir
Gus, the menagcrie and the museum are full of
rare novelties and interesting curioeities.
Among the latter may be mentioned the Zulus,
captured in Africa by the British soldiers. Our
old friend, Capt. Costentenus, reappears with
his body as variegated as ever, and is the center
of female admiration; while Goshen, the giant,
and Queen Nab, the Indiana midget, form as
striking team as ever. The ring performance
could scarcely be excelled, and includes some
innovations-the performing oxen, the leaping
stag, the fire horse and the flock of trained
doves. Zazel, who for two or three years has
been one of the sensations of London and Paris,
closes the performance.
People in the habit of attending Barnun's
know the rush and excitement about the
ticket wagon. 10 avoid this an Office will be
opened tomorrow morning at Bacon d Lam
bie's drugstore for the sale of tickets and re-
served seats at the usual slight advance.

H1yCOCK:AS A TRAITOR.

1t is laughable to witness the frantic eff
forts of the Republican papers to affix the
faint of treason to the name of Hancock.
One would think that man who had served
the country faithfully in the field through
three wars, who had twice been wounded,
and who on numerous occasions had, by his
personal daring, turned the tide of battle
against the enemies of the government
would not be liable TO such accusations. Bur
the fact that he is at present candidate fol-
Office on the Democratic ticket is 80 grave
an offense as to warrant, in the opinion of
partisan writers, any sort of an accusation.
1t would not be at all surprising if he should
be accused, before the campaign is closed,
of having been murderer, thief, an in
csndiary and all that is mean, despicable
and dis honest,
The statement upon which the Republican
papers base their charge of Hancock's dis.
loyalty is exceedingly fllmsy. 1t is the elIe-
CATION of no-account Vermont editor to
the effect that he learned from somebody
who had listened through the keyhole of the
room in which secret meeting of Demo-
cratic committee was being held that Gen.
Hancock had stated that if Tilden was de-
clared by Congress to have been elected as
President of the United States and qualified
as such, he would look to him for his orders.
Ten to one Gen. Hancock never made any
such statement, either orally or in writing,
but if he did it is nothing to his discredit.
The declaration is Simply the assertion that
he would obey the constitution and laws of
the United States. Congress was the only
power that could declare the election of
President, and having made such declsra-
ton it was the bounden duty of every
citizen and soldier 90 carry out the decree.
II Gen. Hancock announced an intention TO
support the President declared elected by
the only competent authority, he simply an
nounced his intention of supporting the
laws which he had sworn to support.
Gen. Hancock's patriotism needs no de-
Tense. He has proved it on many we'll
fought field of battle. He has sealed it with
his own blood. While his present traducers
were skulking in the rear, Gen. Hancock was
the most conspicuous figure in the front,
daring death every moment, leading his men
forward to victory at every opportunity, 1t
is impudent, to say the least, in the stay at
homes, to charge Gen. Hancock, the brsvess
of all patriot soldiers, with disloyslty. The
charge will fall to the ground and be buried
beneath the load of contemps which every
citizen must feel for so absurd an ACCUSE
ton and so dsspicshle a set OF cslumniators.

Hurrah for Hancock and English.

The first pole of the cam paign was raised at
Kasota July 1st. The brass band from the asy-
lum at st. Peter was over and helped to en-
Iiven the occasion with patriotic airs.
A speech was made by the Democratic veter-
an, Elder Miller, who voted for Jackson, and
hopes to live long enough to vote for Hancock
for second term. a delegation came over from
st. Peter headed by J. A. Lamberton and Major
Sackett.
The pole is handsome one, eighty-one feet
high, bearing streamer twenty-five feet long,
inscribed with the names of our candidates,
Hancock aud English. The ladies of Kasota
contributed flag twenty feet long and six feet
wide, which was unfurled to the breezes with
three cheers for Hancock and English. The
whole affair was engineered by the Hon. Reuben
Buffers, who said LIE Sueur county can be
counted 800 majority for Hancock and Eng

Of the German empire during the financial year

plus of income of sos, 0l6 marks. During May
the imports of wheat, corn, oats and maize,

THE CROPS.
The reports from different provinces of the
Prussian monarchy on the harvest prospects
prove that the alarm which arose after the cold
days of May was in great measure justified.
The corn harvest will be very small in all the
northern districts and it is reckoned that only
so percent. of the ordinary harvest will be got
in. Reports from Russia, Hungary and Cali
cia also announce that q great deficit is ex-
peoted.

TEE REORGANIZATION OF THE RE
PUBLICANS.

PUBLICANS.
It is very evident that the great lights that
have given luster to the Republican party in
the campaigns of the past will not be seen in
the campaign that is now upon us. Those
who have not died or deserted have been
placed on the retired list, and new cam
paigners have taken the field. The veterans
who have fought the battles of the party for
the past twenty-five years may now be reck.
oned among the things of the past. They
have won battles, but because they wished to
monopolize Che fruits of victory they have
been kicked outby the younger members who
entertain ambitions for official station.
We shall see whether or not the party will
suoceed without the old leaders. The infu-
sion Of fresh young blood in partyis gener-
ally regarded as greatly to its advantage, yet
in this instance the expediency Of the
expert ment is somewhat questionable. 1t
will be found as the campaign progresses
that the experience is lacking, and experience
knowledge of political expedients-is an
important factor in campaign.
Notwithstanding the assurances of the
Republican press that the party is united
and enthusiastic in advocacy of the ticket,
there is abundant evidence to the contrary.
The adherents Of Grant are not enthusiastic,
and cannot be made 30. They resent the
nomination of Garfield as direct personal
insult, and as having been brought about by
a conspiracy. The friends of Blaine and
Sherman are still sore headed, and are not
ct all anxious to contribute to the success of
the present ticket. The nomination of Ar
thur does not please the civil service reform
ers, who still retain hope of the ulti-
| mate success of the Hayes policy
and though they generally approve of
Garfeld's candidacy they cannot be brought
to the point of giving the ticket their hearty
support. The truth is that there are many
elements of disaffection in the party that
will soon seek vent in open rebellion. The
assertions are numerous and prominent.
They are evidences of general disintegra-
ton in the party. But the assertions are
uot LILO uUot nlguiAcont iootuto VI but
campaign thus far. The greatest damage
to the Republicans, and the best omen for
success for the Democrats is the apathy
that seems to be almost universal. Few OF
the old leaders of the party take an active
part in the campaign. Neither by their
eloquence nor by their advice will they con-
tribute to the success of Garfield and Ar
thur. They are thoroughly disgruntled, and
will keep in the background, leaving the
labor of the campaign to those who accom-
plished the Nomination. very weak and
impotent part of the organization.
Every indication betokens disaster for
the Republicans and victory for the Demo
Gratis. The latter are all united and harmo-
NOUS, enthusiastically in favor of the whole
ticket. They will labor unremittingly for
its success, and will scatter their already de-
moralized opponents to the four winds of
heaven. A brave charge along the front in
November will win the day.

Attacked by Foot Pads ,

A murdsrous attack by foot pads was
made on w. B. Grorty, associate judge OF
the municipal court, night before last, the
particulars of which were related TO GLOBE
reporter yesterday morning. In the early
part of the evening Judge McGrorty and DIR.
Dewey had called on friends in upper town
and they started for home about IL o'clock,
separating at Jackson street. Judge Nc
Grorty proceeded in the direction of his
residence on Grove street, near the Seventh
street bridge. In passing down Kittson
street he was approached by two hard look
ing characters, one of whom
exclaimed "This is our man."
Without further ceremony one of the ruff
fans made dash at the judge, which was
successfully warded off with his cane. Be-
ing unarmed. and realizing the desperate
intentions of the williams, Judge McGrorty
(who, being crippled in one foot, was unable
to rup), squared himself against fence and
prepared for the attack. He vas approached
by the second man, who en- untered blow
in the face, which made him reel back smart
ing with pain. Both men then rushed on
him, and believing that this was time for
quick work, Judge picked up couple of
stones and let them have it in the face.
His defensive resources being exhausted
he would have undoubtedly got the worst of
it, had it not been for the timely appearance
of gentleman named L. R. Selmes, who
had been paying visit to friends in lower
town. The gentlemen were acquainted and
it required no words for Mr.. Selmes to real
ize the position of his friend. Mr.. Selmes
drew revolver as he approached, on seeing
which the men ram. They were pursued and
being awed by the revolver the cowardly
wretches stopped near Seventh street bridge.
Judge McGrorty held the pistol over them
while MIR. Selmes went in quest of a police
man. In the meantime Officer CASEY, who
was not on duty, came along, and the men
were taken to the lookup. For some reason
no explanation was given Of the affair at the
time of the arrest and yesterday morning
they were at the police court charged with
disorderly conduct. They vera committed
for three days. Judge. NcGrorty did not
appear until after they were committed,
when his explanation threw new light on the
matter. They viii be srraigned on the
charge of assault with inteut to do great
bodily harm.
