In the number of letters and parcels registered
was | ,567, 49l. The actual losses of registered

EXPOSING THE FRAUD.

The Republican papers are filled with ap-
peals to the Democratic journals, urging
them to show their independence by coming
out and denouncing the National Democratic
committee for alleging that New York was
carried by fraud. The Republican papers
have conveniently short memories. Four
years ago every Republican paper in the
country, with one solitary exception. came
out the next morning after election, and
acknowledged Tilden elected. The Republi-
can National committee Immediately set up
the cry of fraud and mapped out the pro-
gramme for stealing three States. Every
Republican paper in the country changed
front at once and proceeded to claim the
election of Hayes. Though the whole coun-
try knows land all fair Republicans admit)
that this claim was false, it was so persistent
ly pressed that it gave us President for four
years who was not elected. The Republican
papers then had an opportunity to display
some of that Independence" they are now
urging upon their Democratic contemporaries.
At the present time they have an opportu-
nifty to show that they are non-partisan by
coming out and denouncing the Republican
frauds in New York and Indiana. But it is
only when the other fe lows OK is gored
that the Republicans call for ''independ-
ence."
' As matter of fact there is no doubt that
the Presidential election was carried by the
Republicans by the corrupt use of money
and fraudulent votes. While the GLOBE is
not sanguine enough to anticipate the seat
ing of Hancock, it new ertheless rejoices at
the movement to develop and expose the
means by which the Republicans secured
their unholy victory. To spe-
officially prove a sufficient num-
Der of fraudulent and purchased votes
to change the result may be an impossible
ity, but that enough will be shown to give
the Democrats the moral victory is beyond
question. This is rather barren, it is true,
to retain the moral victory, while the prac-
tical one remains in the hands of the enemy,
but it is public and patriotic duty to make
the exposure. Our system of gov
eminent cannot permanently en-
dure the election of Presidents by fraud.
If such things are quietly acquiesced in it
will only be question of time when Re-
publican form of government will be
abandoned. In fact 80 far as practice is
concerned, the country has already ceased
to be Republic and is ruled by political
oligarchy which uses the peoples money to
perpetuate itself in power. Any
movement which tends to weak
en- and expose the corrupt
oligarchy should be encouraged and well
coined by every we'll wisher of the country,
regardless of party predictions.

sHERMAN,s COUP DETAT.

John Sherman has turned that chronic
nuisance-Private DaIzell-to some political
account, at least so far as the political &C.
count interests the Sherman family. Private
Dalzell is the most complete ''ready letter
writer in the country, and it only required
a very slight hint to induce him to write
John Sherman and ask whether he wished to
succeed Garfield in the Senate. This was
Sherman's opportunity and he responded
that he did ct know what Garfeld's plans
relative to his cabinet were but he thought
it might relieve Garfield from embarrass-
maent, if he (Sherman) should be elected
Senator from Ohio. Of course Private
Dalzell rushes the letter into print, wholly
"without authority" and Sherman is TINS
placed in the double position of an
nouncing that he would like to remain in the
cabinet and that he is also a candidate for
Senator! It is very evident that he prfers
to remain at the head of the treasury depart
ment and Garfield can scarcely refuse him
the appointment. Garfield went to the Chi
cago convention as the especial friend and
champion of John Sherman. He presented
Sherman's name as Presidential candidate
in the strongest possible light and but for
the detection in Gen. Garfeld's own section
of Ohio, Sherman might have secured the
prize. As the ssqnel proved Garfield shook
the tree and then gathered the apples him
self. With the gentle hint which Sherman
has now given, that he would like to remain
in the cabinet, Garfield can scarcely refuse
to make him the tender of the position.
Sherman evidently does not wish to turn over
the Treasury books, even to Republican,
lest some of the tangled web which sur
ronnds that department should be un-
ravelled. Then, again, Charley Foster wants
to 60 to the Senate and his secret treachery
to Sherman at Chicago did great deal to
bring Garfield out as candidate. Foster is
an especial friend of Garfield and Garfield
cannot better serve his friend than by max
ing smooth the road to the Senate. It can
therefore be set down as among the prob
abilities that Sherman will remain in the
Cabinet and Governor Foster will fill the
place in the Senate for which Gen. Garfield
was elected.

More Thoroughbred Stock

More Thoroughbred Stock for Minnesota
DR.. W. L. Mintzer, the veteran Minnesota
horseman and breeder, and owner of the re.
nowned racer Mintzer, is home after lengthy
absence spent in attendance upon the racing at
and Baltimore. The doctors horse took part
in some of the principal events at each of these
important racing centers, winning ad-
ditional fame for himself as a
race horso and shekels for his
owner. The doctor, as he tells it, had q
splendid time at each of these places, but his
visit to Baltimore, the queen city of the South,
is remembered with special pleasure. 1t was
his good fortune to be there while the good
people and true of the city were celebrating the
one hundred and fftieth anniversary of it's set
Element by Lord Baltimore, after whom the CITY
was named. Naturally the doctor enthused with
the citizens, and as mementoes of his visit and
the occasion. brought home with him samples
of Lord Baltimores cOlOrs, coat of arms, med
ais, etc. But the doctor never allows pleasure
to run away with him, but always has at least
one eye wide open for business. To this bust
ness eve of the DOCTORS while in Baltimore,
Minnesota is indebted for the several valuable
additions to its thoroughbred stock. While
there he purchased Vermont.

foaled 1874, by War Dance. dam Nora Creina.
Troublesome is noted hurdler, and will un-
doubtedly be heard from again in the future.
While making these purchases the doctor
alsu sold the running qualities of his horse
Mintzer to Lara Hart, of New Orleans. The
doctor does not give the figure at which this
sale was made, but as he says Mintzer was as
fine as silk, as sound as a dollar, and able to
run better race than ever, it may be sur
missed that be got a good round figure. The
GLOBE congratulates the doctor upon his good
fortune. and especially for the important ad-
dition he has made to the Thoroughbred stock
of Minnesota.
