his pocket, and threw, as he supposed, about

4 Proposition to Take III the Fire Con-
gresSHten From minneapolis.
To the Editor of the Globe
Your editorial of the 18th inst. on
''Ohioism in Minneapolis is full of good
suggestions. 1t shows on your part just
appreciation of Minneapolis merits, as
an unSelfish desire to grant the modest
demands of your rival city. The Pioneer
Press, few days since, had marked out
and arranged five Congressional districts
to be formed under new apportionment;
but, with characteristic st. Paul selfish
ness, places your city in one district from
which Minneapolis is excluded Now,
would it not be feasible and acceptable
Ito Minneapolis) to so form these five
new districts SO that all will corner at
some point in Minneapolis! 1t seems as
though such scheme were possible and
strictly in keeping with the former polit-
ical demands of that ambitious city st.
Paul can afford TO be magnanimOus in
this matter, and it is of little moment
what the rest of the State does, think or
desire. The plebs ought not to expect a
voice in the matter.
CtG Iue duNduldSc VI SuCu du dTTdnSc-
ment The five Congressman could all
be from Minneapolis, and in the control
of State patronage, according to "Ohio-
ism,'' all the federal offices Of the State
would come from the same city
This would he a practical solution
of the civil service question in Minnesota
The best men would fill the offices. A
certificate of residence in the city of
bran and sawdust should be taken as con-
elusive proof of honesty and competency.
King, Johnson, Clark, Fletcherson and a
hundred more of the political saints
could easily perpetuate the power of
Minneapolis.
Then in the matter Of appropriations
Just think what an advantage that city,
which depends so largely on Congress
sional gifts for its greatness, would have.
Five members, backed by an official lobby
that would be the astonishment, at least,
of the national capital. -
Be sure you can do the State great
service by advocating this scheme Yours,
etc,

burned to crisp, while on majority it il

large number of packages containing what

Land League Meeting.

A well attended meeting of the st. Paul
Land League was held at their hall last even
ing. Great enthusiasm for the Irish cause
was manifested. Mr.. j. W. Willis briefly re-
viewed the legal aspects of the prosecution in q.
stituted by the English government against
Parnell and the other Irish agitators. He also
characterized in terms of severe yet just re-
proach the scandalous language with which
the lord chief justice of Ireland recently as.
sailed Mr.. Parnell at the hearing of certain
preliminary motions in the prosecution
against that distinguished leader. It was
clearly shown by the speaker that the chief
justice had, in the remarks referred to, pre-
judged the case, in violation of all time hon.
ored and universally accepted legal traditions.
Mr.. William L. Kelly and Mr.. William
Markoe also made short addresses. Mr.. c. NJ.
Mccarthy, president of the league, noted re-
cent events of interest occurring in Ireland,
and read q portion of the great speech lately
delivered by Mr.. Parnell at Waterford, Ireland.
twenty-five new members of the organization
were enrolled. A public meeting of The league
will be held on the evening of January Z, 1880.

Bile Plans and Counter Plans of the Con-
tending Parties.
DUBLIN, Dec. 2S.-The land commissioners
have concluded their inquiry, and communi-
Gated the result to Gladstone. 1t is understood
that their opinions are, that some of the Pro-
testant farmers in the north of Ireland are de-
termined TO stand against the land league. The
military stationed at Cork have been ordered to
suppress the land meetings proposed to be
held Lat kanturk on Jan. I'd.
LONDON, Dec. 23.-The Times, in a leading
editorial, says the government has apparently
some suspicion that behind the agrar-
ian organization in Ireland other projects are
being patched up. 1t is probable that mis-
chievons gang Of Irish-American filibusters,
who were authorizers of the Fenian raid in 1867,
are again at work They find the masses flushed
with triumph over law and abundantly sup
piled with arms which have been sold in hun
dreds of thousands throughout Ireland, since
the peace preservation act was allowed to lapse,
over six months ago. 1t is impossible, to be
sure that they will not set a match to the
train.

s0tiddtiOn..


Private dispatches received in st. Paul from
the East announce that H. H. Porter has been
elected president of the St. Paul & Duluth rail
road company; in place of John P. Ilsley. AS
Mr. Porter is president of the st. Paul s. Oma-
ha line, and as the owners of the st. Paul &
Duluth road are also prominent stockholders
and directors of the Omaha line, this change
can have only the meaning that was at once
given to it in railroad circles here-that the st.
Paul g. Duluth railroad is to be taken wholly
ers of the St. Paul & Duluth have in
view the increasing the market value of the
property by uniting it with the other lines,
and of increasing its earnings by perfecting
their arrangement for through business be-
tween the Missouri and Lake Superior, it is
also probable that they design to limit COM
petition between the St. Paul & Duluth road
and the North Wisconsin road, in which latter
they are also interested, and which is within
one or two years to be completed to the lake.
1t is further probable that consolidation in this
case as in Others, means plan of econOmizing
by reducing the expense of management oper-
alton and equipment.
The st. Paul & Omaha, if it has added to it
the st. Paul and Duluth, will gain control of
considerable block of the most valuable railway
property in the city, including repair and car
shops, depot and freight yard, and an excellent
right of way into the city. Its st. Paul &
Sioux City road will then more completely
represent the idea of great trunk line with
lateral feeders and its branches at either end
diverging to embrace larger area and wider
volume Of traffic. 1t would constitute sys-
tenn substantially complete, and yet capable of
being expanded by it's feeders and branches
But there are disquicting rumors in the air of
st. Paul which more than suggest that this
st. Paul & Omaha combination, which has
consolidated dozen or more once separated
railroads, is itself about to be swallowed by a
still greater as it is an older aggregation of rail-
roads.
The rumors are not definite or authenticated
but they repeat what has been frequently
asserted in Chicago and New York-that the
st. Paul & Omaha, largely if not entirely own
ed BY men who are prominently interested in
the Chicago & Northwestern, is about to be
openly consolidated with the latter great cor
poration. The rumors here go SO far as to
say that ordersfron General Manager Hughitt
will next week announce the consolidation
and extend over the whole st. Paul & Omaha
