Pilgrims Going to Mentor.

CLEvELAND,J Jan. 15.--Secretary Sherman ar.
rived here late this afternoon changed cars in
the station and went Immediately to Mentor
where he is General Garfield's guest He ex
poets to return here tomorrow and 90 to his
home in Mansfield. Senator Allison, of Iowa
thought to be probable secretary of the treas
,lry, is here and will go to Mentor Monday.
CLEVELAND, Jan. 16.-Secrctary Sherman
returned here from Mentor late this afternoon.
When asked concerning the significance of his
visit there, he answered that being in Ohio che
simply called upon General Garfield and they
talked over matters and things which came
up" He said if he had anything to say about
the conference which would interest the pub
lie, he would frankly tell it to the representa-
tive of the associated press, but he had moth
ing TO say. He shall go to Mansfield tO-mOr-
row and remain in Ohio till the latter part of
the week, then return to Washington.
Senator Allison, of Iowa, will go to Mentor
tomorrow. In an interview he said he has
had no intimation of being appointed secretary
of the treasury, but the congressman of Iowa
and the people of the northwest believe Hon.
j. f. Wilson, of Iowa, should have place in
the cabinet. He added: ''In connection with
my visit to Mentor expect to say something
about Mr.. Wilson and the wishes of our peo-
pie in regard to him.

Alex. Ramsey and his friends. He was
twice elected Senator, and both times by
an absolute purchase. Not any
half way matter such as vague
promises and tanning out of
offices, pledging conventions, ETC., but
solid cash, that had some immediate tan
gible meaning. That is the way Alex
ander Ramsey came into public life and
the way he retained position so long as
he was in an elective office. Now that
the Ramseyites have turned informers,
and tell us of the tactics of the McNIill-
antics, we are getting down to the true
inwardness of the Republican party
When it is further considered that the
only improvements on Ramsey's immense
real estate in this city are tumble down
saloons, and that when at home he is
among their best patrons, the charge of
convivaility, made by his organ upon Nc
milan and Christianity, comes with bad
grace, to style it moderately.
The insulting allusion to the German
and Scandinavian nationality is charact-
eristic of cold blooded Nova Scotian
who never became citizen of this coun-
try until ayear after he was postmaster
when he suddenly discovered that he had
no legal hold upon the Office and to avoid
being succeeded by an American citizen
he took the oath of allegiance.
We trust Josef's disappointment Over
the loss of the postoffice will cause him
to continue to talk out in meeting. There
is plenty to be told and no one is better
able to depict the rascality of his party
than the person who was removed from
the postoftice by Senator Mcmillan.

To the Editor of the Globe
The article in the Pioneer Press of Jan. 16
with the above heading, referring to Suliivan's
Hibernian Blondes asa consolidation of dish
washers and ''hams," shows the ignorant,
bigotted and prejudiced principles of its atl-
thor, the half civilized, uneultured, imbecile,
who knows as little about the good qualities
of novelty entertainment as hog knows
about playing Hamlet And by the way the
article reads, it goes to prove that the gentle
manly (:) patron of Faber was not exactly sure
of what he was writing, owing to the fact of
the number of friends and Tom and Jerry mugs
be had to contend with before retiring to his
sanctum-a dry goods box. Once there, he
gave vent to his feelings, being sorely disap-
pointed at seeing moral show and not vul-
gar exhibition as he was anxious to witness,
he resolves to do justice to his thoughts which
were anything but happy. No doubt at the
completion of his criticism he smiled to think
the CONSERVATION the 'Dizzy" Blondes would
be in when they would peruse the columns of
the Press. Our candid opinion is that pick
and shovel would be more appropriate in the
hands of this piece of Gods carelessness than
pen or pencil. Come again.

reading of paper on "Light and Heat" by

the head of Social Science was of more than

| This Nomination of ID. Burt for Superinten-
| dent of Public Instruction.
To the Editor of the Globe.
Consistency, thou art jewel. About TWEEN
ty years ago there was great furore made
over the length and breadth of this country in
relation to the "Nullifiers" of the South at
| tempting to nullify the greatest united nation
of the earth. At that time to call man a
| Nullifier Tor as some called it secession) was
| the height of condemnation to that person.
He was in all Northern communities COM
pletely ostracised, and an outcast from all re-
| spectacle society. 1t was then that the Re-
publicans went into power, and upon that
| idea that party has ever since retained its hold
upon the government and of all the approach
! es thereto. Especially is that the case here in
| Minnesota.
But alas, how have the mighty fallen Here
| in Republican Minnesota, where all of the
officers in and around the Capitol building,
| from his excellency down to the fireman, are
| staunch and reliable Republicans, dyed-ln-the-
| wool kind, we see his eXcellency, the governor,
sending into the Senate for confirmation the
| name of one David Burt, late superintendent
of public instruction, for the same office for
the next term thereof.
Now it is well known fact among all of
| the office holders in and around the State
about one year ago now, that same David
Burt, as one of the members
of the board of higher educa-
cation of this State, took il
into his head to nullify the law of this State,
under which said board exists, and did actual
ly nullify the same, SO far as to stop all legal
Operations under the same according to the
provisions thereof. That is not the only law
of this State that he has used his best endeav-
ors to nullify. He has used his position, as
superintendent of public instruction, to de-
feat the school book law, of which Governor
Pillsbury speaks in such glowing terms fin his
last message. This man Burt comes rs near
being nullifier or secessionist as any office
holder we now know of in the whole rank of
Republican officers, either in or out of this
State.
II is to the credit of the Senate that his
nomination was not at once confirmed by that
body, but his nomination was referred to
committee. 1t is believed it was the general
knowledge that the Senate have of his nullify
instincts that caused the same to be referred to
a committee for investigation. However, it is
none of our funeral, but if the present Senate
have the same appearance of nullifiers that the
Republican party, rs party, pretended to
have twenty years ago, it will ostracise that
man Burt as he has ostracised those whom he
called nullifers at that time. FAIR PLAY.

THERE is movement on foot in Wis

an executive mansion, to be occupied by
all future chief magistrates of the Badger
domain. The proposition is made in the
interests of poor aspirants for guberna-
torial honors who, if elected, could not
afford to sport the style expected of a gov
ernor on the small salary of five thousand
dollars year. The plan is not without
merit, but it'would fail of its purpose, for
