Cruelty to Animals-A Man Who Ought to
Have Been Punished.


Mr.. W. l.. Wilson appeared at the police
court yesterday morning as the humane adyo-
cate of that useful portion of the brute creation
which, bearing the fardels of mankind, yet are
dumb. The accusation made by MIR. Wilson
was that of cruelty to horse preferred
against horse trader named Joseph Taylor,
and as Mr.. Wilson stood up in the role of ad
vocate one could not but recall the eloquent
sentiment expressed by the kind and noble
hearted Keats, who said:
II would not name among my list of frinds,
Though graced with polished manners and
fine sense
The man who needlessly sets foot upon a
worm"
The alleged cruelty took place last Saturday
in the alley back of the custom house. MIR.
Wilson was sitting at his desk, daily oc-
cupied by him in transacting the onerous du-
ties of inspector of customs, when he heard
noise. He rose and looked out the window.
The defendant was there with team of horses
one of which refused to go. Defendant pro-
cured cord and attaching it to the jaw Of the
stubborn steed he tied the end of the cord to
the pole. He theu whipped the other horse
which started him at lively trot, pulling the
stubborn horse with him. The latter was fain
to go or undergo the painful ordeal of brok-
en- jaw. The defendant explained that be was
a dealer in horses, that the animal was balky
and that there was no other way to break him
In. Witnesses testified that no more force Was
used than necessary and defendant was dis
charged.

THE FIGHT most GO ON.

After wriggling back and forth for sever
al weeks with propositions and counter pro-
positions, each one trying to get advantage
of the other, all efforts to harmonic the
Republican row in the First district between
Ward and Dunnell are "off." Mr.. Dunnell
has written a stilted letter in which he de-
clares that the only thing he has ever been
willing to have reviewed was whether he or
Mr.. Ward was entitled to the delegations
from Mower and jackson counties to the
Waseca convention. He regards his ser
vices to the party and the country too dis
inguished to be ruthlessly blighted and
will consequently have none of it.
Mr.. Dunnell modestly recaptitulates his
great achievements as reason for remain
ing in the field, and still he omits several
historical events. He was Colonel of a
Maine Regiment in the early part of the war,
but has never borne any military title in
Minnesota and comparatively few know of
his military prowess. In his recapitulatory
letter, he fails to state that he proved to be
throwing away his uniform, he outdistanced
every one in the race for Washington, from
the battle of Bull Run, being the first man to
cross the Long Bridge, and seeking the
cellar of an acquaintance, remained
concealed for three days, expecting every
moment that Washington would fall into
the hands of the rebels. He not only forgot
this, but forgot to state that the brave regi-
ment which he led, when he essayed to return
to them jeered and booted their cowardly
commander until he found it healthy to re-
sign, and banishing all military titles he
carpet bagged from Maine to Minnesota,
where he turned up as an Office seeker, and
though 1t was an era when brave army men
were receiving civil reward, he never wrote
himself down as "Col." Dunneli. No deed
or word of his has ever brought him to the
front in Minneaota as Colonel
He does not allude to the charge made by
one of the men whom he subsequently re-
warded with post Office, to the effect that
upon voting himself back pay he telegraph
ed to Owatonna to Ego to hauling sand'' for
his new residence.
He overlooks the accusation of Republi-
cans in his district thst his collector, A. g.
Smith, extorted money from the Office hold
ers, ostensibly for political expenses, but in
reality to divide with him (DunneIl) and that
aside from what he stole in the shape of
back pay, his residence was built by the
black mail levied through Smith and direct
ly by himself.
The memory of ''Col." Dunnell is so de-
fective that he does not state whether or not
be received handsome fee from the Beef
Slough company for betraying the public
interests and protecting this private corpora
ton.
The "OoloneI' should have polished up
the front door of his mind little more
before he recapitulated the greatness which
entities him to remain in Congress.

FIGHTING FOR TIE CHILDREN.
The Family Troubles of Michael Cahin in
Court.

The Family Troubles of Michael Cah1u in
Court.
DETROIT, Aug. I7.-Some time ago Michael
Oahill, of the Chicago Pilot, was defendant in
a suit for divorce, Mrs. Cahill charging deser-
ton, cruelty and failure to support. he en-
tered cross bill charging her with adultery.
Their four children, 5. z, 9 and 10 years old.
were placed by the father in the Holy Angels
academy at Buffalo. Mrs. Cahill discovered
their whereabouts and visited them once or
twice. Alleging that they were abused
by the sisters in charge, she went
again with a carriage and pistol
and took them away at the lannon's mouth
and brought them to Detroit and gave them in
charge of the Home of the Friendless here last
week. Cahill learning of their hiding place,
came to Detroit, sued ont writ of habeas
corpus and endeavored to get possession of the
children. This elected vigorous defense on
the part of the mother and ladies of the Home,
and several prominent lawyers volunteered
their services in defense of the case. II came
out in the course of the trial that the contest
for the children partakes. partially, at least of
a war of religious belief, the father being a
Catholic and the mother Protestant.
The court decided this afternoon to remand
the children to the care of the Home of the
Friendless, until termination of the divorce
suit in Chicago, and final disposition is made
of the children by the court there. Cahiu
was very obstreperous over the action of Judge
Turner, one of the oldest circuit judges on the
bench in our State, denouncing his action TO
his face after adjournment of the case, ard
loudly proclaiming about the streets that he
would whip him if he was not SO old. The
behavior of Mrs. Oahill, and the bullying de-
meanor of the husband, turned the whole tide
of popular sympathy to the side of the woman.
The children unequivocally declare their pref
erence to share the lot Of the mother, and ex-
press terrified repugnsnce to beiLg put under
the fathers care.

Where is the danger3 Is it in financep
Look back over the eight years of Grant
at the mercantile failures, wide spread in
solsency, labor riots and starvation, and
Black Fridays of despair. Never IN the his
tory of the United States has there been
such period of disaster and distress. When
the Democratic party came partially into
power with majority in Congress, the pros
porous era began. The government expend-
lures were reduced at the rate of forty mil
lions year, the system of contraction
stopped, and bounding tide of prosperity
gladdened every sinking industry.
Where is the danger? Was it when An
drew jackson, Democratic President, re-
moved the government deposits from the
United States Bank, already in the clutches
of the gold of England, or when a Republi-
can supreme court declared paper money to
be legal tender? Was it when a Demo-
cratic President annexed the golden region of
California, and flooded the earth with gold
or when a Republican President invented
q new paper machine and
deluged the land with paper promises to
pay?
Is there danger in the solemn declaration,
without resel vation or equivocation, to OBJ
serve and to enforce the constitution in all
it's parts to the letter. This is the pledge
of the Democratic party. The constitution
is its sheet anchor, and the rule of the
people the gospel of its faith. It is pledged
to maintain the right of a free ballot and to
protect the workingman alike against the
cormorants and the commune. There can
be no danger in the success or united,
harmonious, national Democracy, from
whose creed every vestige of sectionalism
has been eliminated; there can be no danger
in the overthrow of that despotic minority
SO long in possession of the government;
there can be no danger in the vindlcation
and establishment of the peoples right
to rule, nor in the victory of the party that
made sixty years of American history all
luminous with the achievements of free
government, protected capital, dignifed
labor, and exalted workingmen to be the
supporting pillars of the commonwealth
and the true sovereigns of the earth.

The suit was brought for services, and the
Judgment obtained in the lower was affirmed
by the higher tribunal. Counsellor Gribble
of the st. Paul bar, represented the interests
of -he plaintiff, who, during the litigation,
was sent to the insane asylum, and after.
wards released on the grounds that it wasn'l
a case.
AS before stated, the judgment was fol
800 deposited in the hands of Mr.. G. N
Bell, attorney for DR.. Manner. Ofthe above
amount his noble nobs, advocate Gribble,
claimed the modest retainer of $65, for SER
vices rendered in conducting the suit, and
for which he had taken out lien. Yester-
day morning Mr.. Bell brought the bundle
to the district court to paw the same to the
plaintiff as required by law. The proceed
ings awarding the transfer of the swag were
exceedingly unique and interesting.
The Office of the district court was crowd
ed with lawyers, their clerks, the sheriff and
his deputies, who slyly concealed writs OF
execution; the plaintiff and his advocate
court officers, creditors and spectators. Il
was an interesting group, but as the sequel
will show there was not enough money to
go around and some one was bound to gel
left. The money was handed to Mr.. Egan
who acted as mutual friend between Gribble
and his client, and the formers creditors.
Mr.. Egan received the roll and Mr..
Gribble stood by to accept the same, count
out his services and fees, and turn the
balance over to his client. Back of Gribble
stood Sheriff King and Mr.. Harrison, who
Egan commenced to count out the money
which was supposed to be in five and ten
dollar bills. He counted out several fves
and he had Just reached the first ten note in
the pack when down came the writs of eye
cution, one of which was for $35 against
Gribble for wood purchased of Dowlan, the
wood dealer.
Surprising that it was o. K, Sheriff King
looked at the money seized and found that
there was only one ten dollar note and lit.
tie scrip amounting to $14.25.
The chagrin of the creditors may be i'm
agined, the fact being that instead of the
big bills being at the bottom, one bill, a 500
note, was the second of those passed over te
Gribble. The latter had put the bundle ir
his pocket and lit out. The other fellows
grinned until the charm was broken by s
cackls which was heard down at Pigs Eye

THE BUGBEAR OF DANGER.

The most powerful factor against the sue
cess of the Democratic party is the timidity
of capital. It is a bugbear, an Office hold
ers' phantom, a weak device, an invention of
the enemy, the forlorn hope of corrupt
speculation, without reasoD, without common
sense, without single precedent in the
past, without single cause and effect in the
future.
The accusation of danger to the finances
of the country, in the election of Demo-
cratic President, is 80 utterly intangible, SO
insubstantial, so clearly an electioneering
trick, so directly contradicted by history,
as to defy all the rules of logic, and to ex-
haust all the patience of calm and honest
patriotism. There is no antaganosim, there
can be no antagonIsm between Democracy
and the prosperity of the people. The ex-
istence of the latter 30 far as embraced in
political management depends upon the tri-
umph of the former. The welfare of the peo-
pie was but ceaseles struggle through
dark centuries to assert and perpetuate in
governmental forms the principles Of true
Democracy.
There is no conflict between the money
DO YER and the Democratic party,
except where that power is hos
tile to the people. II IT is
not hostile to the people. If there is no fos-
tered and fattened oligarchy of money,
there is no danger from the Democratic
party. The cause of the people is the cause
of Democracy. 1t will be impossible for
the Democratic administration to inaugurate
any financial scheme or devise any legisla-
ton to depress capital or to Cypress labor.
Its mission will be to prosper both, to de-
stroy forever the fictitious conflict, and to
increase the value of the one by exalting the
mission of the other.
With equal truth, might it have been said
that there was danger to Rome in expelling
the Tarquins, or to France in becom-
ing a Republic. Rome became the
metropolis of power, of wealth,
of all the treasures of art and of all the
splendors of culture, the mistress of the
earth. And France, with the disappearance
of the empire. seized the enchanter's wand,
marvellous resources sprang into existence
to blot out an immense foreign debt, and to
dazzle mankind for all ages by the brilliancy
of the achievement.
The success of the Democratic party does
not mean danger; it means peace, harmony and
prosperity, from the lakes to the gulf, and
from ocean to ocean. 1tmeans new life and
energy in the cotton and sugar and tobacco
fields of the South and in the factories of
the North, and in the grain regions of
the West; it means no contraction
of money nor expansion of credits, but the
money of the constitution and enough of it.;
it means the revival of commerce, free ships
and living chance for American trade;

ST. PAUL's BOARD OF Trade.

The meeting of this new organization,
this forenoon, to inaugurate its daily trade
sessions, suggests the advising country deal
ers who will have grain and other produce
to sell that the establishment of this board
offers them the privilege of selling In q
market near to them, from which returns
will be quick, and where the competition is
likely to be as active as in any other market,
while less likely to be affected by combina-
tions for corners. Especially will this
be true of wheat, for, the wheat
buyers of st. Paul being united
in this board, here the millers of the South
and East must come for the hard spring
wheat which ali of them desire to use, in
greater or less proportion, to give strength
to their -four. st. Paul is also good mar
ket for oats, barley and corn, for mill
stuffs, provisions, butter, eggs, ETC.. and it is
the best buying and shipping point TO,
stock, hides, wool, tallow and the many 9TH
er commodities which make up the trade OF
the Northwest. Its business capital and
transportation facilities keep pace with
the increasing traffic of the country
of which it Is the commercial outlet.
There can be no doubt that right here is to
be transacted commercial businessswhich,
in another decade, will place st. Paul in the
first rank of commercial cities of the con-
tinent. The GLOBE believes that the mem
bers of the Board of Trade fully appreciate
the advantages of their situation and are
disposed accordingly to make good market
here for all products of the country.
While the board extends to sellers the
benefit of sales under competition, it also
offers to buyers the benefit of purchasing
in an open market, and to mil.
lers of the South and East, who
want the hard spring wheat
of Minnesota and Dakota, the further in
ducement of an assurance that they will
receive exactly what they buy. The st,
