INDEPENDENCE Us. BOSSLSM

INDEPENDENCE Us. BOSSISM
n good deal has been said about the
meeting OF independent Republicans in
Philadelphia recently to organize, or
rather to continue their organization
against the Cameron machine and Boss
ism. The fact that Mr.. Wolf, the In
dependent candidate for State Treasur-
er, Ito whom we called attention before
the election) polled about $4,000 votes,
has shown the Independents what one
man can do by Il bolt and All Independ-
emit run in State politics. Bolts in
county matters aye more common, and
it is not often that man comes out
for /; State office AS An independent and
bolter and makes as good Il run as MIR.
Wolf made.
Mr.. Wolf, or his movement. will form
the nucleus OF an Independent party
which will break the back Of the Cam
eron dynasty and lay out Bossism in
Pennsylvania. We see that some Of
these independents propose to throw
Mr.. Wolf overheard and work IN the
party, that is, they will try to rescue
the Republican party Of the State from
the grip which the Camerons have on
its throat. This part is all we'll enough,
but when they propose to steal Mr..
VOLTS thunder and take up his work
by leaving him ont, we hope he will be
able to kick them out. There is too
much Of this effort among partizans. A
man makes enemies by leading bolt
or 4 movement, and then the timid par.
t;Zans want him to stand aside and let
them 90 in on the wave he has created.
We hope Mr.. Wolf has the stuff in him
to take the lead and hold it, and that it
may carry him into the governors
chair.
These independent movements are
becoming thick and successful. We
congratulate those Republicans who
are getting backbone enough to bolt
and b: independent. The ADVANCE
has been ut that business for eight
years and ia both amused and graf flied
to see papers which used to abuse all
boilers and strike out furiously at
them, pluc!king up courage enough to
bolt and to applaud and approve these
independent movements.
Since the above was written, we find

A Popu1ar Lerislator.

Numerically speaking, the Democracy of
Minnesota does not make a very great show
ing in the halls Of legislation, but when
show of usefulness is called for, the few rep
resentatives of the party in either branch are
generally found at the front, and seldom get
left. Some of them represent Republican con-
stituencies, but they are always true to the
interests of those who send them to the legis-
lature, regardless of party predictions. A
notable instance of this character is Senator
W. T. Bonniwell, of Mcleod county. Senator
Bonntwen is not a talking man. He
is one of those who is ever watchful
for the best interest of those he
represents, and his work is better known by
what he accomplishes than by what he says.
He seldom occupies the time of the senate by
speeches. He makes those in the committee
rooms, where they bear fruit. The GLOBE is
led to state this much in regard to Senator
BonniweIl, from the fact that against an oppo-
sition that seemed hopeless he succeeded to-
day in getting an appropriation of $500 for a
bridge in his district, when nearly every other
senator failed. Nothing but his personal
popularity with his brother senators, and the
lively interest he feels in every measure for the
benefit of those he represents, carries him
through. No senatorial district in the state
has more watchful, faithful, and we may
add, successful representative than that whose
interests are looked after by W. T. Bonniwen

great deal of money in coal shares about the

ALMOST FORGOTTEN.
NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-The wrecking of the
Mechanics National bank of Newark seems
already almost a forgotten affair. President
Sherman of the Mechanics National bank, the
New York agency of the broken bank says the
loss TO his bank Is small. A Washington cor
says the bank defalcation caused
the president to call attention of the secrs-
tary OF the treasury to the system of bank ex-
aminers. BE says the Newark defalcation
shows either that bank examiners are inefi.
cient or their inspection of the books of ma.
tional banks Is merely nominal, or their in.
spections are so infrequent as to be of no ma
terial account in detecting fraud.
Property Of G. A. Nugent & Co. in this city
was attached IN behalf of Picard & Anderson
and Frederick Probst & Co., and property of
the wrecked bank in this city was attached for
the benefit of the West Side bank.

Railroad News From chicago.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-The Chicago & Alton
railroad is again taking freight for East st.
Louis and other southwestern points, the
freight blockade being removed. The South
western Rail association agreed to form pool
for Colorado business including that shipped
south Of Kansas City and that via Council
Bluffs.
There seems to be hitch in the New York
Central fast train and it may even yet be
abandoned. The difficulty is that this
roads line is 924 miles long,
while that of the Pennsylvania
road is only 912 miles. This would require
them to run each mile in minute and thirty
six seconds according to their fast train sche--
dule, not including stops. The Pennsylvania
would, of course, be able with their superior
equipment and shorter distance to eclipse any
time made by the Central, and they publicly
announce their intention of doing so. The
Michigan Central also protests against being
left out in the cold, as it would necessarily be

SALT LAKE, Oct. S1.-A suit, brought by
Campbell to annul Cannon's pretended certifl
cate of naturalization, was decided to-day by
Chief Justice Hunter. The judge held that in
the statements of complainant and admissions
of the defendant the certificate of Cannon was
void on its face, and the pretended naturaliza-
tfon was a nullity. Thus the court in which
Cannon pretends to have been
naturalized, twenty-five years ago,
decides that he is an alien and therefore Gov
ernor Murray was right in refusing to certify
that he had been duly elected to congress. It
is not supposed that the house of represen-
tatives can fail to take notice of this action or
indeed to be governed by it; and thus it is re-
garded as virtually settling the contest for
the delegates seat from Utah in favor of
Campbell, the liberal candidate, and the liber-
ais of Utah are pucking up courage.

LONDON, Nov. 2.-The Pail Mall Gazette
says: "There is no truth whatever in the
statement that there is large amount OF
money in the Bank of England deposited to
the credit of the confederate government, and
available for payment of confederate bonds.
We believe it does not hold single penny,
and doubt whether there is any such money in

gross Justification, and fitting product Of a
speculation that has no substantial founda-
tion."

MILLING INTERESTS.

Deceptive Wheat-lHigh Prices Com
planned of by the Milwaukee Associa-
tion-Mills Shut Down.
MILWAUKEE, Nov. 2.-The Milwaukee
Millers association to-day passed resolutions
asking the chamber of commerce to enforce a
rigid inspection of wheat, as a vast quantity
of wheat is coming in from the northwest,
which, while it looks fair and good is No. 2.
and even No. 1 is badly injured by rain and
is damp and tough and totally unfit for flour.
The association also telegraphed as follows to
the Millers association of Minneapolis:
At meeting of the millers of this city to-
day, it was resolved, that owing to the un-
warranted condition of the wheat market,
which is manipulated in the interests of specu-
lators, and against all legitimate business, we
believe it to be for the interests of the millers
of the country to make common cause and
shut down their mills until the price OF wheat
shall be at figure to compete with the
markets of the world. All mills here have
shut down. We invite your cooperation.

The National Game.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 2.-The Base Ball con.
vention for the purpose of forming a new
league is IN secret session here Representa-.
tives are present from New York, Boston, st.
Louis, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Brooklyn and
Philadelphia. All these want admission and
the question under discussion is, how many
shall be admitted?
An association was organized under the
name of the American association OF base ball
players. The constitution of the old league
was taken as basis, but materially modified.
With view Of making clubs self-supporting,
and affording more liberal conditions to clubs
and players, it has been determined to re.
quire fixed sum to be paid visiting
clubs for every game, leaving to
the home clubs the management of
prices of admission. The clubs admitted are
the Atlantics, OF Brooklyn; Athletics, of Phila-
delphia, Cincinnati, st. Louis, Louisville and
Pittsburgh. Applications for membership
have been made BY Newark, N. j., the Metro
politan club, of New York, and by an unnamed
club in Philadelphia. Action on their admis.
sion was postponed till tomorrow.

FREIGHT DETERMINATIONS.
Interesting Investigations by the Illinoil
Board Of Railroad Commissioners.

Board Of Railroad Commissioners.
ST.. LOUIS, Nov. 2-The Illinois state board
of railroad commissioners began an investiga.
tion at Belle Plaine, H., to-day of charges
against eastern railroads for infraction of the
law made by certain coal operators
as reported in these dispatches last night.
Much interest is manifested in the case by
all concerned. Most of the railroads are
represented by their regular attorneys, and in
one case that of the Air Short line, its presi-
dent, George W. Parker was present. Testi-
mony was taken to-day against the Vandalia
and Louisville & Nashville roads. This was
given by what are known as non-exchange
operators, or those who do not belong to the
coal exchange and railroad pool, and showed
that they could not get anywhere near as
many cars as they needed to transact their
business or as many as were furnished to
members of the exchange. They complained
to the managing officers of the roads and in
each case they got an allotment of cars equal
to exchange men operating mines of the same
capacity as theirs, but this continued only
about week, when they cut
down to the old and insufficient
number. One of the eomplainants, Harris,
whose mine Is on the Louisville & Nashville
road, has contract to supply the st. Louis
waterworks, which required ten cars per day,
and, in consequence of not being able to OBJ
tain these cars, he has been obliged frequently
to purchase coal of exchange
men at loss of 2 cents per
bushel to keep his contract good. He repre-
sented his case to the officers of the road, and
for a week he received the neces sary number
of cars, but after this he was cut short again
and was advised by an officer of the road to
divide his contract with members of the coal
exchange. Finally he lodged complaint
with the state board of commissioners since
when he has been getting liberal supply of
