THE MoRMnN CONTEST.

The case of Campbell VS.. Cannon,
which comes up before the present con-
gress, involving the right of the contest
ants to seat in that body, is one Of the
most important questions to be passed on
by the forty-seventh congress. Campbell
rests his claims to seat solely on the
fact that he holds a certificate of election
from Governor Murray, and on the as
sumed disability of Cannon by reason of
his polygamous practices, and not on the
fact of his having received majority of
the votes cast for delegate at the last
election in that territory. We do not
apprehend, however, that congress will
be favorably impressed with Mr.. Camp
BELLS view of the matter, whatever dis
position may be made of Cannon's case.
The action of Governor Murray in
awarding the certificate of election
however commendable from a
moral standpoint, is clearly
unwarranted by either law or precedent
The returns of the board of canvassars of
the territory show that an overwhelming
majority of the votes cast were cast for
MIR. Cannon. The governor was bound
to take notice of this action as it ap-
peared of record in the office of the secre-
tary of the territory. His failure to do
50 will neither strengthen the claims of
Campbell nor prejudice those of Cannon.
The result of the vote cast at the cleo
ton, as declared by the Territorial board
of canvassers, Is conclusive of the rights
of the contestants.
Congress, in the exercise of the pre-
rogative of judging of the election and
qualifications of its own members, may
refuse to admit Cannon, but Campbell
would not ipso facto be entitled to the
seat denied Cannon. The action of Con-
gress would go to the qualifications of
Cannon and not to the regularity of his
election. In the Connecticut case, under
the alien and sedition laws, and in more
modern cases, the rejection for personal
reasons has generally been followed BY a
reelection and prompt rejection again
by Congress. The action of Congress did
not inure to the benefit of the minority
candidate History will doubtless repeat
itself in this respect in Cannon's case.
We do not, however, consider either
the questions of law or fact in this case to
be of such character as to warrant
the least hesitancy on the part of Con-
gress in promptly rejecting Cannon. He

Palmer,s Crookcdness

NEWARK, N. j., Dec. 27.-The mayor
with several city officials, including
members of the finance committee, vlsi-
ted the Jail this noon to confer with
Auditor Palmer concerning his defalca-
TONS His counsel refused to permit. an
interview, but Harder, examiner of &C
counts, saw Palmer and stated that he
denied having forged the signature of the
mayor, clerk or city council, but admitted
he had deceived them in order to obtain
their signatures to the warrants. Such
statements, he claims, as were necessary
to obtain their signatures, were after
wards destroyed. He protested that
no one was in collision with
him. The city treasurer always took his
word and acted on his instructions, and
was deceived as the other officials were.
Holden says there are other populations
in the sinking fund interests, assessments
and tax lease accounts which he has not
examined sufficiently to state the details
Palmer knew of Halls defalcations in the
comptroller's office, but concealed them
by manipulating the accounts to avoid
discovery. Holden presumes they knew
too much of each other for either to
speak, and Palmer is represented as say
ing he hoped the legislature would pass
law to try all defaulters by drumhead
court martial, and shoot them on the
spot.

INSTANTLY KILLED.
Woman of Seventy Years Run Over by
Locomotive.

A Woman of Seventy Years Run Over by
Locomotive.
A shocking railroad accident occurred
at the Front street junction on the Short
Line railroad about 9:25 o'clock yesteI-
day morning, resulting in the instant
death of an aged woman named Mrs.
Kate Bartosh, residing in the Bohemian
settlement near the city hospital. About
the hour named James Saintong, the
switchman at the Fort street crossing, let
down the gate, consequent upon the ap-
proach of the passenger express train
from Minneapolis, due at that point at
twenty-fou minutes past 9 O'Clock.
Whether or not Mrs. Bartosh observed
tho approach of the train is not known,
but she made her way between the OBJ
long Stats of the gate and started to cross
the track just as the train approached.
She had just crossed the tracks when the
pilot of the engine struck her in the
side, throwing her two or three feet and
killing her instantly.
The deceased, who was 20 years of
age, and leaves husband and family of
grown children, was removed to her resi-
dence and Coroner Davenport was sum-
moned.
The inquest was held at IL O'Clock
when the following citizens were sworn
as the Jury: J. g. Donnelly, James
Stealey, F. A. Krch, Charles Ringwald,
Andrew Flsdebach and A. B. Jones.
James Saintong, the switchnan, testi-
fed to letting down the gate and to seeing
the woman afterwards attempt to cross
the track. he shouted to her, but the
warning was too late. He stated that de-
ceased was in the habit of rushing across
the track when trains were approaching.
William Bloomfield, engineer of train
No. So, testified that the train was run
ming at about the rate of eight. miles per
hour. He could not stop the train in
time to prevent the accident.
William Banholzer, testified that he
had witnessed the accident and that he
considered it unavoidable
THE VERDICT.
The jury found that death resulted
from injuries received by being run over
on the Short line railroad, and the en-
ployes were exonerated from blame. They
considered, however, that slower rate
of speed should be observed and that better
protection should be afforded at the cross
ing.

Annual Review

The GLOBE will present its annual review of
the business of st. Paul for 1881 upon the
last day of the year, as is its usual custom.
This review can be made much more complete
and satisfactory by the active cooperation of
the business men of the city in giving infor-
nation. AS representatives of the GLOBE call
for statistics they shou. ! receive prompt re-
plies, as the work is so great
it will be almost impossible to
make repeated calls. These annual
GLOBE reviews have become an important
business feature of the city, and as the matter
is pu rlic one and not personal speculation
the neral cooperation Of those possessing
information is earnestly desired and conf
IDENTIFY expected.

The GLOBE, when it was first issued adopted
the plan of publishing every day in the year,
Sundays and holidays included, and is now
closing its fourth year without the loss of an
issue under any pretext whatever. This was
an innovation in Minnesota journal
ism, which the public have not been
slow to appreciate. In addition to this the
GLOBE inaugurated the style of supplying
all the news of the entire world in condensed,
compact form, at a moderate price, placing
the paper within the reach of all who desire
daily paper at all. The GLOBE has full as
ISOLATED press privileges and invites COM
parlson with any other paper in
the matter of publishing the news of
the day. Space is too valuable in the GLOBE
to waste it upon shocking headlines, but let
the reader take any issue and compare it with

In order to still further extend its field, the
GLOBE now offers to supply the paper by car
rier or mail for an entire year, seven issues
per week, for SEVEN DOLLARS. This offer
is conditional upon the whole amount being
paid in advance, and applies to all, old and
new subscribers alike.
This offer will hold good to all who accept
it prior to Feb. LIST, 1882.

Small Pox or Erysipelas.

About all that is necessary to create
a stampede in these Eighty times is to
whisper the dreaded word, smallpox, and
the circle vanishes as if exercised by the
wand of wizard. The veracity Of this
statement is demonstrated by the lively
scene that took place over a presumed
smallpox subject at City hall yesterday
afternoon. About O'Clock there stalked
into City hall an individual wearing a
blue blouse that looked as if it had lain
all its days in hay NOW, cloth cap and
with nothing to boast of in the shape of
foot wear but pair of wooden stockings.
One glance at his repulsive face was
enough to settle the business. His face
was matted with rnnning, loathsome
scab and he presented truly terrible ap-
pearance. Some one whispered the word
small pox, and the half dozen police Of
ficers and loungers picked themselves up
and vamoosed the ranch as rapidly as
those they had been struck by the bust
ness heel of mule or battering ram.
Finally one courageous fellow popped
his head in the room and ordered the
victim to the health Office on Washing
ton street.
He repaired to that place where he was
visited by GLOBE reporter. He stated
that he was suffering from erysipelas and
gave the name of 81. Kincid. Also that
he was from Aiken in this state and that
he would like to have Cool Douglas Of
that place informed of his condition. He
was taken in charge by Health Officer
Meyerding. Notwithstanding his asser-
ton, his symptoms strongly resemble
smallpox.
