IT is very apparent that tho Pennsylva-
mia Republicans have become wearied of
the dictation of Don Cameron in the pol
itics of that State, and are determined to
depose him from his self-assumed throne.
A movement, which had its origin during
the Senatorial contest last winter, has
now taken definite shape, and opposition
to the Cameron dynasty is to be made one
of the requisites of all candidates for
office. The movement is under the con-
troll of some of the ablest politicians of the
State. There is every present prospect
that it will succeed, but there is danger
that another boss will arise in place of
Cameron who may prove as intolerable as
he has been. The only relief the people
of Pennsylvania need hope for is in the
restoration of the Democratic party to
power-a party in which the bosses bow
to the rule of the majority, and carry out
the wishes of the people, whether they
comport with their own interests or not.

ABOUT twenty-six and quarter mil
lion dollars are expended annually by the
people of the United States for daily
newspapers. The sum appears large, but
is not as large as it should be. 1t is but
half dollar for each inhabitant. Theat-
rical amusementS cost the people one half
more, and yet more benefit Is derived
from the perusal of the newspapers than
from theatrical performances, however
excellent they may be. Tobacco and
cigars cost the people six times more than
the newspapers, and yet tobacco is but
little benefit and oftentimes an injury to
those who use it, Alcoholic and malt
liquors cost ten times the amount ex-
pended for newspapers; and yet, except
in rare instances, their consumption is a
positive detriment to the consumers.
While the American public no doubt
patronizes thenewspapers literally, there
is room for improvement.

Tint Jail DeIirery .

The escape of John Wilbur, alias "Texas
jack" from the new Jail on Sundayinight is
causing much comment A large amount of
money was spent in making the Jail safe
place for the keeping of criminals, and it was
supposed that this end had been obtained. No
tices of the safe and secure condition of the
cells and Jail and the care bestowed by the
officials to whom prisoners from other coun-
ties were committed for safe keeping, were
mailed to different parts of the State about u
month a5o.
On Sunday, Sheriff Fortier, OF Yellow Med
icine county, arrived in the city with three
delegates for the penitentiary at saltwater.
One of the two was John J. WILDER. Owing
to the incapacity and carelessness of Mat Bros
and John Ench, the two turkeys, Wilbur
escaped, and now Sheriff Fortier is cranky
Although Sheriff Eustis is not individually
responsible for the escape of Wilber, yet by
the employment of intelligent and capable
menas turkeys. such an occurrence would
be avoided.
1t may be stated that since the two persons
above named have been in charge at the Jail
only sixteen prisoners have escaped, which
fact should have the effect of their services
being dispensed with at once and suitable men
hired.

A Very Proper Sentence.

There is radiant beauty in the face of inno-
cence that enforces alteration. 1t is as regnant
in rags as when clothed in the daintiest
product of the loom. Two shop girls, with
honest faces, were proceeding home Monday
night when they were addressed by drunken
duffer named Albert Marselett. The girls
shrank from the ruffian, when he clasped one
about the waist. Officer Casey heard the
racket and ran to their assistance. The fellow
was locked up and yesterday morning he ap-
peared in the police court. The court stated
that he proposed to put stop to such pro-
ceedings, and he was sentenced to fine of
800 or ninety days. He went to the bastile.
As defense he stated that he was so drunk he
didn't know what he had been doing.

Court Cuttings.

The May term of the district court opened
yesterday morning at 10 o'clock.
The attendance of attorneys from st. Paul
and this city was large.
The calendar embraced 231 cases and was
disposed of as follows: Twenty three of the
cases growing out of the HARDWOOD failure in
which N. R. Thompson, formerly sheriff, was
defendant, were removed to the United States
circuit court.
Five cases were stricken from the calendar,
nine continued by consent and seven dismissed
or settled. Of the 1S7 remaining "a are court
and lib jury cases.
The time of the judges will be occupied this
week by hearing court cases exclusively. Yes
terday afternoon the jury cases were set for
trial and to-day motions will be argued in
court cases and the calendar for court cases
set.
GRAND JURY.
At the opening of the court at Q o'clock the
grand jury, as published in the GLOBE, with
the exception of D. B. Bailer, were sworn in,
and John De Laittre was appointed foreman.
The charge which was delivered by Judge
Young was a lengthy and carefully prepared
one, occupying about forty minutes in it's de-
livery. The principal points touched in the
charge were the means of preventing
crimes which were classed under
tWO dSdiuoo PiiN"e0 PO'SOho1 anu
against the public peace and society
in general. The jury were instructed to
transact their business in the same manner
and with the same care and dispatch that they
would their own private affairs. The atten-
ton of the jury was called especially to the
fact that the public was now in that state
where they wanted things to run themselves
instead of trying to better them. That city
officials, elected by the people, by sneering at
the law which punished crime, and criticlzing
the courts simply because the city gained
revenue from such crime, was leading to the
inevitable result of disrespect of all laws.
The jury were told that because keepers of
houses of ill-fame paid fines into the
municipal court was no bar against
indictments being found against them, and
should the existence of any suelI crime be
known to the jury they should present it to
the court. The crime of keeping gambling
rooms and violation of the excise and election
laws were alluded to and the charge closed by
the attention of the jury being particularly
called to the fact that presentment could be
found in many cases where an indictment
could not, the ground covered by present
ment being that if it was a probability that a
person or persons had committed an offense
presentment could be issued.
The jury then retired, and commenced busi-
ness at once, by taking up the case of w. T.
Wells, who is held on a charge of obtaining
goods from Kingslsy's grocery stall under
false pretenses.

Piles are frequently preceded. by sense OF
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection of the kidneys or neigh
boring organs. At times symptoms of indi-

OF the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspi-
particularly at night after getting warm in
bed, is avery common attendant. Internal,

BELSHAZzAR AND HIS BROTH
En- BILL.
Argonaut.

Argonaut.
Belshazzar Smith had a very bad and
very dangerous habit of walking in his
sleep. His family feared that during
one of his somnambulistic sannteringshe
would charge out of the window and
kill himself, so they persuaded him to
sleep with his little brother William,
and to tie one end of rope around his
body, and the other around little Will
liam.
The very first night after this arrange
ment was made, Belshazzar dreamed
that burglar was pursuing him with a
dagger. So he crept over tolWilliam's
side Of the bed, stepped over Williams
slumbering form, jumped ont on tho
floor, and slid under the bed. He stay
ed there awhile, and then, his night
mare having changed, he emerged upon
the other side Of the bed, and got under
the cover in his old place.
The rope, it viii be observed, was be-
meath the bed; and it was pulled taut,
too. Early in the morning, Belshazzar,
about halt awake, scrouged over against
William. To his surprise, the movement
jerked William clear out Of bed. Bel
shazzar leaped out to ascertain the cause
of the phenomenon, and at the same
time his brother disappeared under4the
bed. Belshazzar, hardly awake, was
scared, and he dived beneath the bed
stead; as he did 50, be heard William
| skirmishing across the blankets above
his head. Once more he rushed ont,
just in time to see William glide over
the other side. Belshazzar just then be-
came sufficiently conscious to feel the
rope pulling on him. lie comprehend
ed the situation at once, and disengaged
| himself.
Perhaps little William was not mad.
He was in the hospital undergoing re-
