The Upper Town Saloons.

A few days ago Mayor Rice revoked the
liquor licenses of Johnson & Thiele and
James Donovan, whose saloons are loeat-
ed between Third street and Irvine Park, for
reasons which at the time seemed sufficient to
him. Since then the proprietors of the sa-
looms called upon the mayor and represented
their side of the case, and this coming to the
knowledge of the residents in that vicinity,
they paid Mayor Rice another visit
at his Office yesterday morning
Among the number were Messrs. Banning,
Horn, Elfelt, Driscoll, Bigelow, Langford,
Rogers, Maxfield and others. City Attorney
Murray, Chief Weber, Fred Emmert and the
attend .nce. The matter was talked over, near
" every one present having something to say
The citizens stated that they did not wish to
persecute or make war upon the proprietors
of the saloons. but as they had been run
heretofore they were becoming and were an
intolerable nuisance and should be
abatcd. There were no mean facts
developed. There was no charge made against
Mr. Donovan, except the fact that his saloon
was unfortunately situated. The conclusion
of the meeting was to the effect that if Mr.
Donovan would tear away the screen and close
the door on the east side of his building, and
Mr.. Emmert would remove his building to
vacant space on Eagle street, near the Seven
corners, the citizens would withdraw their
protest against restoring their licenses. This
was agreed to, and the meeting broke up.
During the afternoon Mayor Rice and Chief
Weber visited the locality and examined the
situation, the MAYOR instructing the chief to
see that the changes are made before the sa-
looms are allowed to be reopened.

A FEW correspondents of Eastern news
papers are insisting that Guiteau can be tried
on the charge Of treason, and, if found guilty,
executed. The suggestion is preposterous.
II Guiteau had sought to excite revolt against
the government of the United States, such a
charge might lie at his door. He simply a
tempted to take the life of the President AS
the President is not the government, and as
his life is regarded by The law as no more
sacred than the life OF the humhlest citizen,
1t will be exceedingly dificult to distort his
act into treason. The only charge upon which
Guiteau can be tried is for an assault with in
tent to commit murder. It is lamentable that
his punishment is likely to be SO exceedingly
inadequate to his crime.

NoRTHFIE. D, July 2, As act of justice on
the part of myself, and for the good and common
sense of the people, not only there but for those
throughout the State who may be interests wish
Journal of the 2lst inst, entitled 'about chinch
Jugs again, which is inteuded as an al swer to an
article written by me in the CLOSE of the 18th inst.
on the subject, in which said: The chinch bug
has found IFS way to this part not in such numerous
quantities, but numerous enough to supply the
country with eggs and bugs enough to
destroy the who 9 crop to certain extent.
further said: This fact has been kept secret by
our local PRESS, to which the author of the article
in the Journal says: shut this not true that the
local papers are trying to kesp it se ret We called
attention to the subject in issue Of June 3d. the
next day after Mr. Reynolds told us the chi. Oh
bugs were damaging the wheat" Now that Mr.
Journal Is the aggressor in the negative, the GLoBI
| will prove that he has tried to keep it secret
Bear in mind he SAYS Eve called attention to the
subject in our issue of June 23d." Seven weeks
ago the first chinch bugs were discovered but very
scattering. The 22d of June Mr.. s. REYNOLDS told
him the chinch bugs were doing damage to the
| wheat Again we quote: "We called on J. !. Ame'
and W. R. Henderson to make inquiry. Mr.. Amef
had been csnvassing this region on this very sub
ject and he found the pests not doing serious
injury" True enough; the GLOBE never claimed
they were doing much in fact hurt at thai
But, the 10th day of this month"; Mr.
8. Reynold took a bunch of grass con
tanning thousands of chnch bugs to the JourmG
ohiOo olo eau " Ouo VI tuo pfOpr10tOrS II have
some chinch bugs here you fellows don't believe
there are any now," to which he said in about these
words: "Oh, you fellows, especially you farmers,
are always compl lining about something or other
destroying your wheat when there is nothing in "
and gave Mr.. R. to understand that the Journal
would not say anything about it. And then he says.
s'We called attention to the subject in issue of
June 49," when there was none but the cd ones to
breed from. He winds up by saying: "We are
therefore impeed to he conclusion that the chinch
bugs are confined mainly to the forty acre Fcrd
farm"
To this will add that can find ten different men
every day in this vicinity, until there is more to
ind, and men whose veracty will not be questioned
who say the chnch bugs in their wheat in count
less number, and that several patches have been de-
stroyed entirely by them. The reason they have not
been discovered before is, that Minnesotians don't
know chinch bug from any other, from the fact
that they are thing in Minnesota and those
who have discovered them from States where
chinch bugs are known.
Furthermore, will give it out solid that anything
which appears in the Mortified department of the
GLOBE will stand Investigation.

Attempted Safe Burglary

Between Q and o'clock yesterday morning
an attempt was made to blow open the safe of
Patrick Kegher, on the corner of Wabashaw
and Fifth streets. The would-be burglars
effected an enhance through window in the
rear Of the building, and bored through the
top Of the safe and inserted the powder.
They piled sacks of flour around the
safe to deaden the sound, and placed
an old coat over the top of the safe.
The experiment did not prove success
asahe door of the safe withstood the explo-
siG1. but the fuse set fire to the coat Two
nswsboys saw the men scrambling out of the
rear Of the store, and at once informed Officer
Mcmahon of what they had seen. The officer
proceeded 10 the locality and saw the smoke
from the burning coat. He quickly effected
an entrance and put out the fire, and thus pre-
vented what might have been disastrous fire.
There was only about $40 in money in the
safe at the time, but the thieves got nothing.
The books and papers in the safe were slight
" scorched by the powder, but otherwise no
damage was done. There is no clue to the
robbers.

THE RESULT IN NEW YORK.

The New York legislature yesterday chose
Mr.. Lapham as the successor to Rosco e
Conkling in the Senate of the United States.
A few days ago Mr.. Miller was chosen by the
same body to succeed Mr.. Plat. New York
is therefore represented in the Senate by the
men named-Miller and Lapham. It may be
sati efactory to the half-breeds to have such q
representation, but it is questionable if the
result win prove satisfactory to the people of
the State.
Mr.. Warner Miller, who becomes the senior
senator, is man Of great wealth. He en-
listed in the army at the outbreak Of the war;
but deserted in 1852, and was posted on the
register as deserter. He engaged in bust
ness In New York, and after the lapse of
few years-when the war was closed-secured
a certificate Of discharge from his regiment.
Ever since the war he has been engaged in
the manufacture of wood pulp for paper max
ing purposes, an industry that is protected
BY our tariff laws more CON-
pletely than any other industry on the CONT
nent. He has made q fortune and was elected
10 Congress BY virtue of his wealth, but has
developed no requisite for higher position.
Mr. Lapham is Representative in Congress
from the twenty-seventh district of the State
he is known by the people of his district as a
fair lawyer, but outside of his district is not
known at all. II he possesses any of the
elements that should characterize United
States Senator, they have not been made man.
ifest He may be able to vote when his name
Is called. and perhaps he may vote intelligent
~, but when compared with his predecessor
he will be regarded as nonentity, and proper
ly so.
No State in the Union has a more insig-
nineant reputation in the Senate than New
York. No State in the Union should have a
better one. It was the current gibe at the
time OF Platt's election that New York has
two votes but only one Senator. The accuse
ton was true. It is now equally true that
New York has two votes but no Senator
Neither Miller nor Lapham can fill Conkling's
shoes. Neither Miller nor Lapham are fit
to represent the chief State in the Union in
the Senate Of the United States.
The result Of the protracted contest in the
legislature may be gratifying to the half-breed
leaders Of New York. It can only be humil.
iatiAG to the people of the State. It is do
nestle affair, however, which chiefly concerns
the people of New York. II they are content
to be represented BY a pair of nobodies, the
rest OF the country has no right to complain.
