The closing exercises of the boys depart

The GLOBE desires to say that the entire
exhibition was success, and every one of
the large audience went home we'll pleased.
The boys of the school, and those who took
part in the exercises, ranged in age from five
to fourteen years, and each and every one
acquitted themselves splendidly. The COM
positions and declarations were exception
ally good, and showed the careful and pain
taking labors of the teachers, and reflected
great credit upon Brother Icarion, the di-
rector of the Christian Brothers school. 1t
would be out of place to single out any par
ticular one of the boys for especial mention,
but the GLOBE cannot forbear mentioning
Master Johnny McColl, only about nine or
ten years of age, whose two declarations
would do no discredit to orators of four
times his age. He is a prodigy-a natural
orator, whose self-possession and manner is
little short of marvellous.
at the conclusion of the exercises, Bishop
Irland distributed testimonials for good con-
duct and scholarship to some fifty or sixty
of the boys, after which Father Stanley
made brief address to both parents and
children.

Early and Sudden Death.

Mrs. Mary Carroll, daughter of Officer
O'Keefe, died at Saltwater on Tuesday night,
after brief illness, from inflammation of the
tonsils and throat. Mrs. Carroll was mar
ried about two years ago and leaves an in
FAINT eight months old, beside her husband
and other relatives, to mourn her early
death. Her mother was with her during her
illness, and a telegram on Tuesday afternoon
to Officer O'Keefe gave him the first intelli-
gence that her malady was considered dan
gerous. He started at once for Saltwater,
but on his arrival his daughter was delirious
and expired without recognizing him. The
remains were brought to this city yesterday
and will be buried from st. Michaers CHI urch,

a Visit to the bad Lands .

Mr.. j. b. Power, general land agent for
the Northern Pacific company, returned yes
terday morning from visit to the so-caIled
Bad Lands of the Little Missouri, his trip
having extended to Pyramid Park, forty
miles beyond the end of the extension track.
En- route he stopped at and explored Bly, coal
mines, where shaft has been run 1000 feet
in six-foot vein of Ignite. At other points
be saw two coal veins uncovered, one six
feet thick and the other eight feet thick, and
at still another place the railroad grade is
cut through bed of Ignite twelve
feet thick. This last is between Green
river and the Bad Lands. The Knife river,
Green river, and Upper Heart river, Mr..
Power says, run through as fine an agricul-
turaI region as is to be found in eastern Da-
kota or Minnesota. 1t is well watered, both
by streams aud Springs. At Grand river,
near the end of the track, thirty feet above
the river level, spring sends ont stream
of pure water as large as mans wrist.
Near the freighter's trail, mile inside the
Bad Lands, is a spring which has furnished
an unfailing supply for freightars and SOL
diers, and half mile beyond is another
which furnishes an abundant supply for 500
people. The water of these springs is
pure and sweet, without trace of
alkali. A gardener in the Bad LANDS
exhibited to Mr.. Powers new
peas and young potatoes grown on this
springs breaking. The growth of grass is
luxuriant. Mr.. Keith, the railroad COM
pany's engineer, says that within the five
miles square on the Little Missouri, which
has been temporarily reserved for the military
cantonment, he could locate twenty families,
each with 160 acres, on farms equal to the
best farms ever seen anywhere. So much
for the goodness of the bad lands. The re-
gion has It's name from tie clay buttes,
which have often bare, perpendicular sides.
These buttes are forbidding enough, but the
plains, slopes and valleys from which they
rise are richly covered with vegetation,
through which good many
settlers are running their break
ing plows, and turning up soil
that will produce the best of crops. But
the settlers and all who visit the country are
inclined to adopt the theory of railway
engineer that the Bad Lands are an I'M
finished part of the world, and that the
various stages of rock formation may be
observed in the clay buttes and banks. Mr..
Power thinks the country will became a
place of resort for pleasure tourists because
Of its unique characteristics.
The rails are laid to about 100 miles west
of the Missouri aud the grading is nearly
finished to the Little Missouri, which is $50

GARFlELL'S EFFORT TO DEGRADE
HANCOCK;S RANK,

In 1868, when General Hancock was man
aging the civil affairs of Louisiana and Texas
with such consummate ability, and to the
entire satisfaction of the President of the
United States, there was no legal way to gel
rid of him, and it was necessary to resort to
extraordinary measures. There was one
member of the House of Representatives
mean enough to disregard the long and faith.
full services Of General Hancock, and he in
troduced bill to reduce the number of
major generals, with the avowed object of
getting rid of one major general who stood
in the way of radical reconstruction. That
major general was Winfield Scott Hancock,
and that member of Congress was James A.
Garfield. The old soldiers will remember
this at the polls in November, and rebuke
the man who sought to humiliate the
gallant soldier. Fanatical legislation took
the control of the army out of the hands OF
the constitutional commander in. chief, and
placed it in the hands of Gen. Grant. who
proved himself willing tool in the hands
of those who opposed constitutional recon.
etruction Of the Southern States. Hancoch

and eUer should be. The right of trial b.

This sentiment he stamped upon the his
tory of the times with the same boldnes
that his worthy ancestor placed his name t,
our original bill of rights.

THE PAST INDfCATIVE OF TIE Flu
TUBE.


The Republican papers have begun the
qualification of speech delivered by Gen
Garfield in 1874, in defense of his previous
record, which begins with these words:
we should reach point where our political dis
cussions would not relate mainly to the past
where, in the language of some politicians OF
the day, we should ''let bygones be bygones,
and the politics of our time would look mainly
to the future.
Ever since the nomination of Garfield the
Republican papers have been iterating an6
reiterating the same sentiment-"Let by
cones be bygones, and depend upon oul
promises for the future. Our acts in ths
past, we acknowledge, have been bad, bu
our p. omises for the future are good. Give
us another chance and see how we will con
duct ourselves" They acknowledge the fac
that the records of their candidates have beer
questionable, but claim that they have
learned wisdom by experience and will moi
again fall into the pitfalls which once con
tanned them.
The public has but one means of Judging
as. to the sincerity of party, and that is its
past record. If that record is marked by glar
ing inconsistencies; by frequent departures
from the pledgesssmade; by dishonesty ani
corruption, the public will have but little
confidence in that party in the future, and il
may protest its determination to reform
with all the vehemence of which language ii
capable, and yet fail to regain thate which
it has forfeited. The people will judge
of all parties by their works, and there car
be no greater condemnation OF the Republi
can party than an inspection of what it hal
done. Though the members of the party
may object to going back into the past they
will not be likely to be Accommodated, fol
wha tever of an unsayory character may bt
found will be thoroughly ventilated before
the close of the campaign. The people vii
thoroughly examine the past with view tt
casting their votes for the emergencies of the
future.

II is a conflict between the power of cor.

eminent, and those who adhere to the consti.
tuition framed by the founders of the govern
ment as the only guide of the conduct Of
our rulers. During the past twenty years
the Republicans have almost revolutionized
the system established by the fathers. They
have packed the supreme court with partisan
tricksters, who do not sctuple to peryert the
constitution and the laws, and to defy all
presidents to serve partisan ends. They
have introduced an onerous revenue and
tariff system that is depressing industry on
every hand, and has already exterminated
American commerce. They have set at
naught the authority of the several States,
and sent armies into them in times of pro-
found peace. They have assumed jurisdic-
ton over the personal liberty of every citi-
zen, and by unjust, oppressive, and despotic
laws, have done all in their power to destroy
q free ballot. Against these perversions the
Democratic party has taken decided stand.
1t has pledged itself to abide by the laws land

at the same time protect the States in those
rights that were reserved to them by the
constitution. 1t would accord to every citi-
zen the right to cast free, unintimidated
