The crime of being Offensive is not very
clearly defined. candidate may be honest,
capable and faithful-the man above all
others best qualified to administer Affairs OF

warrant his slaughter. This is, truly, an ex-

political cipher.
This gang of political adventures have
an exceedingly large supply of cheek. All
that they are they owe to the Democratic
party. Now they fancy they have grown so
great that they can kill the party at any
time it does Lot choose to submit TO their
dictation. 1t is as impolitic on their part az
1T is impudent. BY their course they have
forfeited all claims upon tho support of the
honest and consistent members of the party.
Having declared themselves independent OF
party ties they cannot complain if the party
declares itself independent of them when they
next offer themselves as candidates for public
place. 1t should be regarded as the duty OF
every honest man in the State to crush from
existence such disreputable crowd Of fel.

ization should refuse to countenance any
scheme in which they may engage until
such time as they may show fruits meet fol

THURMAN AND CONKLlNG.

Two somewhat significant events have
come to pass within few days that seem
likely to have an important bearing upon the
politics of the future. Two men, who have
for considerable time past been regarded
as wholly out of the Presidential race, have
come suddenly to the front again with
backing that promises to be formidable, and
which may give them the key to the situa-
ton. Senators Thurman and Conkling are
again fairly in the field and propose to stay
until the conventions of the two parties shall
give their final decision as to who shall lead
the hosts in the political battle that il so near
at hand.
The defeat of the Democratic ticket in
Ohio last October was regarded as an extin-
guisher upon Senator Humans Presiden-
tial prospects, and since that time he has
scarcely been mentioned as among the pos
sibilities. Many attributed the defeat of
the party to his sinuous course, and were
exceedingly bitter in their denunciations of
him. He has never retorted upon his ira
ducers, but has left time to develop where
the responsibility lay. His friends have taken
his cause in hand, and have succeeded far
better than We anticipated in clearing his
skirts. The result is that his old-time popu-
larity has returned, and at the present time
no one besides him is mentioned among the
Democrats of Ohio III connection with the
Presidential office. He is morally certain of
going into the convention backed by a solid
delegation from Ohio, ard stands an excel
lent chance of carrying the delegations of
some of the more northerly of the States of
the South.
Senator Conklipg has also risen into
prominence in he Republican party within
tn past few days. Events in New York
have had this tendency. A strong faction of
the Republican party of that State has been
busily engaged for some time past in the
effort to break down his influence. This
has, of course, produced counter plots, and
the result has been the determination on the
part of his hackers to bring him forward fol
the Presidency, and to give him the
support of the entire delegation from that
State. The governor and all the State
officers, who are the creatures of Conkling,
are laboring assiduously in his interest
and as they hold in possession not only the
machinery of the government, but OF the
party, there is little doubt but they will be
able to enforce their wishes.
Both of these gentlemen will be placed in
commanding position in the conventions
of their W5ty. Controlling large delega-
tions, they will probably hold the balance OF
power, and if they cannot accomplish their
own nomination they may at least dictate
who shall be the nominee. Thus it will be
seen that their present prominence may set
tie the destinies of both parties. Further
developments will be awaited with interest.

THAT HORSE TRADE.

Bringing tho Matter to an Issue In the
District Court.
The district court opened at $50 o'clock
yesterday morning, and resumed the trial OF
the State against Levi A. Cooley, begun on
the day preceding.
A large number of witnesses were sum-
moned in behalf of the State, and the evil
dence was of character that strongly fa-
vored conviction.
The history and true inwardness of the
alleged crookedness in connection with the
horse transaction was given at length, the
whole day being taken up with the evolu-
ton of the involved and sinuous circum-
stances connected with the individually
queer character of the transaction. VIM.
Church, the victim to the embezzlement,
testified to having brought the team from
Iowa and the meeting with Cooley, who
agreed to sell the team for fair considera-
ton.
The questionable nature of the trade and
the suspicious circumstances surrounding
the bill of sale, together with the subsequent
proceeding by which the young man discov-
cred he had been swindled out Of $40 were
given as already detailed in the columns OF
the GLOBE. Mrs. Cooley, modest looking
lady, was in court during the trial, manifest
ing the greatest anxiety in watching the
drift of the testimony with the greatest
minuteness of attention.
She was accompanied by young sister,
both of whom testified to the circumstances
of visit by Church to Cooley's house
where the pending house trade was made the
subject of conversation. The testimony was
ably reviewed by County Attorney Eagan fol-
the State and Messrs. Kelley & Heard for the
defendant. At 5 o'clock the jury were dis
charged until $50 o'clock this morning.

The Water Power COmpany-Increase of
Capital Stock-ImprOvements in Pro-

AS president of the Sioux Falls Weter
Power company, Mr.. j. H. Drake, this city,
has Just issued to stockholders and others in
terested a circular, which adds some items
to what the GLOBE has heretofore published
regarding his company, which is mainly
composed of st. Paul men. Among these is
the late action of the directors in increasing
the capital stock to $500, 900, which was i'm
mediately followed by New York financial
house taking one thousand shares. The
compapy,as the GLOBE has stated,is building
a model Touring mill and intends to build,
in readiness for beginning operations next
fall, linseed oil mill. For these mills a
canal is being constructed, twenty feet wide,
twelve feet deep (six feet rock excavation
and six feet galled), and 275 feet long. From
the canal the water is to be carried 115 feet
in an iron fume to the wbeel-pit. The fall
will be tivty-six feet four inches. The
TOTAL ESTIMATED CAPACITY
Of the water power, based on measurements
made at the lowest stage of the water, is
1,O4O horse power; but this total of power is
to be obtained by dams at the head of the
falls, not necessary as yet. The falls and
the water power are secured for all time by
the rock formation, and an in
crease of water by opening channels
from lakes above into the river IS
considered feasible by those who have ex-
plored the river valley. The stone on the
campany's property is also to be made a
source of business and profit, IS it is an ex-
cehent quality for building, and can be cas-
lily quarried. Four railroads are counted
upon to assist in furnishing markets for the
products of the falls. These sre the St.
Paul & Sioux City. the Dakota Southern, the
Southern Minnesota and the Iowa Division
of the Illinois Central. The first two are
already built. the third has its road bed COL
structed, and the fourth is promised. Alto
gether, the outlook is good for the Sioux
Falls Water Power company, and we hope it
will make money, and make Sioux Falls the
greatest of manufacturing towns.
