THE BREAK in the price Of provi sions
and breadstutis seems to have fairly
commenced, the quotations to-day be
ing considerably lower than for several
weeks past. With the present pros.
poets for good crops we can again in.
dnlge in the hope that the price of the
necessaries of life will como down
within reasonable reach of comfort
able living without resort to a disrup'
tion between capital and labor. The
prices for meat and butter are alarm
ingly high, hut with the gradual fall in
the price of grain, they too will catct
the downward impulse.

The Sick Man Of Africa.

Egypt is now the "sick man" Of the
Eastern continent, and will require
the most careful nursing and doctorinQ
to enable him to survive the attack
which threatens his life. The politioa'
future of the country is a queer com
plex and conflict of authority, which
must end in anarchy unless suppressed
By English authority, which has the
greatest influence In the little domain.
The main factors which cannot agree
and are struggling fer the mastery are
the Sultan, the Khedive, the Assembly
of Notables, the British aud French
controllers and the army. The foreign
controllers exercise the greatest in1u-
ence at the Court and are supported by
large body of European officials Of
administration, but while their privi.
leges were sanctioned by treaties and
firmas. they exercised supervisory
functions rather than actual governing
powers. The only source Of political
authority was the army. it was the
army which had deposed sovereign,
set up and pulled down ministers,
impressed its will upon the notables
and represented that feeling of jealous
distrust of foreign office holders and
European intervention which is the
only National impulse to be seen in
poor, broken down, misgoverned
Egypt. The army WAS supreme; the
popular assem- bly, was its plant instru-
ment; the Sultan and Khedive were
the puppets in the back ground, and
the foreign controllers who guarded
the depleted Treasury in the interest
of the bondholders were its national
foes. Small as Egypt is it is large
enough TO endanger the peace ofEuropel
and in the collapse OF its government
it can shake the centres of the French
and English governments, which both
exercise jealous care over their Cwn
interests. The other European powers
say that if there is to be any change in
she existing arrangements a general
should be held.
If therefore an attempt Is made by
England or France to disperse the
Egyptian army or make any other
changes in the government or treat
nent of the sick African, it will have
o be with the consent of Europe. Joint
Intervention will bs dangerous exper .
ment, for neither England nor France c
will permit the Intervention of a single a
ower. Turkish rule i'm plies barbarity,
nisrule and future complications and i
European diplomacy involves a confes.
ion of impotence. Every contingency
aries with 1t it's own menace. The
My other alternative will be the recog c
ition OF Arabi as Khedive with this :,
that payments to the bond v
olders will cease and reforms In ad-
'inistration be brought to an end, and
nth the possibility that Europeans d
lay not be protected from violence, p
nd that the security of tie SueA GAIA D
lay bs endangered.

JAMES A. Smith, a contestant for the
tie seat of Charles M. Shelley, from
the Fourth District of Alabama, died
last night in Washington after very
short illness. Though this precludes
the seating of Smith, it does not ne
cessarily end the contest as Shelly can
be ousted from the seat he holds by
outrageous frauds still the same, and
next to Chalmers, no usurper in Con-
gress deserves summary expulsion
from Congress more than Shelley.

AND NOW one of the pests Of tho
farmer, the cut worm, has
commenced his ravages among tho
corn that has dared to peep above the

report whole rows OF corn cut off by

THE COMMITTEE TROUBLE.

The trouble in regard to the committees
of the forty-seventh congress is not SO
much due to defects in the present sys-
tenn in vogue governing their appoint
ment as to the incompetency of the party
in power to intelligently and honestly
administer the affairs of the government
The present rule governing the appoint
ment of committees is sanctioned by the
experience of century of our national
life, and by the wisdom of the fathers of
the constitution; and congress, instead
of inaugurating change in this direc-
ton, will subserve the public interest by
directing its attention In this case to the
cause rather than the effect.
The cause is found in the elevation of
a man to the speakership of the house
who has not the qualifications to dis
charge the duties of the position; and
the effect is seen in the disgraceful COM
plications into which his incapacity has
plunged the lower house of congress.
1t is not change in the present system
that is wanted, but the election of man
of character and prob1ty; man of ex
perience and ripe craftsmanship to pre-
side over the representatives of fifty mil
lions of people.

THERE is an odd muddle in regard to
Hannibal & St. 10 railroad bonds. These
bonds were issued by the State OF Mis-
souri, to aid in building the road. The
amount was three million dollars, and
the road has paid the entire principal
into the State treasury in advance of the
bonds becoming due. Having paid the
principal, the railroad claims that it
should be exempt from the interest.
Gov Crittenden, however. refuses to
pay the interest. The State has
been unable to reinvest the three millio n
to secure revenue to pay the interest.
and there is no authority, it is claimed,
to make the payment. The result is that
the coupons for the January interest
went to protest in New York. What
gives the matter some local interest is the
fact that Minnesota has 100000 of her
school fund in those bonds. In Novem-
Der they commanded twelve cents pre-
MUM, but when the State officers sent
them to New York to sell, to realize
money to pay the bond claims, there was
no market. The middle is a peculiar
one, in view of the fact that though out
standing, the bonds are paid.

THE GUITRAU TRIAL.

The self-possession of Guiteau seems
to have deserted him under the whitening
invective of the counsel for the prosecu-
ton; and, aside from one or two unim-
portant Interruptions interjected during
the delivery of Judge Porter's argument
yesterday, the prisoner seems to have
been lacking in the vivacity and trucu-
lence of bearing which has heretofore
characterized his conduct in court.
Judge Cox reviewed at length the En-
glish and American authorities on the
subject of Jurisdiction, and concluded by
ruling against the prayer of the defense.
He held that Jurisdiction is complete in the
place where the wound is contemplated
Taking up the question of insanity, he
held that knowledge of the difference
between right and wrong is the true test.
On the question of reasonable doubt, he
refused to charge the jury to acquit if
they had reasonable doubt as to any one
element, but that if they had reasonable
doubt, from all the circumstances and
evidence, of the commission of the crime
as charged, then they shall acquit.

RELIEF OF THE POOR.

The Society Holds its Annual Election and
Elects Its Officers-An Anxious Desire to
Erect Building for its Own Use.
The society for the relief of the poor held
it's regular annual meeting yesterday, with
president 81. NJ. Rice in the chair. Mr.. D. M.
Noyes read the financial report, showing that
the society was in good financial condition.
Secretary Chase made his report, showing the
work of the society for the year. In the alb
report.
The election of officers resulted as follows:
President, II. M. Rice; vice presidents, 81. FL.
Sibley, Alex Ramsey and 81. r. Bigelow; treas
urer, D. r. Noyes; secretary, E. w. Chase.
elected; W. L. Wilson, E. G.. Mitchell, VIC.
Gannett, Mrs. j. H. Murphy, Mrs. G. II.
Highly.
Quite a long discussion followed in re-
gard to the society procuring building
for it's use. The ladies especially are very
anxious to have the society own its own
building, but some of the men do not see their
way clear to get one. There was some talk to
the end that two gentlemen in town were will
ing to erect building suitable for the use of
the society, and the names of A. Il. Wilder
md Fl. W. Hale were mentioned in this con-
nection, by how much authority, is not
known. That matter has gone SO far that Mr..
Burlington has prepareda plan for two story
building with sitting room, parlor, bath
room, kitchen, ETC., ETC., on the first floor, and
hall in the second story where the ladies can
conduct an industrial school and have the
sewing society meet. Finally, after talking
the matter over at considerable length a
committee of seven was appointed COM

by Grant. Not syllable in that direction has
dropped from any prominent politician who
supported Grant for third term in 1876 or
1880.
During the first two years and a half of the
fraudulent administration the third term
scheme seemed to be dead. But on the as
sembling of congress, in December, 1879, the
idea of electing Grant for third term burst
forth in all directions. The cllling of state
conventions for SO early date as the follow
ing February in Pennsylvania and New York,
to elect delegates to the national convention,
and the attempt to call convention for the
same time and purpose in Illinois, and the
sudden uprising of the Grant element all over
the coudtry, showed that the plan for bringing
him forward for third term had been care
fully prepared before it was sprung upon the
people. How severe was the struggle to pre-
vent the contamination of the plot is not soon
forgotten.
If it were true that the third term project
had been given up by Gen. Grant and his
friends, some positive evidence of the fact
would be forthcoming.
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1882-01-11
A THIRD TER II.

1t has been generally considered and
believed that Gen. Grant and his stall
wart friends had given up the idea of
struggling longer for third Presiden-
tial term. The attempt to put him on
the army retired list with the rank and
pay of a general was thought to indicate
the subsistence of further political aspi-
rations and purposes on his and his
friends part, and that some of his former
third term partisans were themselves
having an eye to the Presidential prize.
Arthur has been designated as working to
be his own successor, and Senator Logan
has given indications of entering the
Presidential race.
Does Grant then yield the ground? Is
he not still pursuing the prize with the
voracity of sleuth-houndY His going
on to the retired list would be no obsta-
Gle to his occupying the presidential
chair, for being on the retired list, he
would have no military command, or &C
tive service to resign. He would be
simply the passive recipient of
big military salary, and could,
at the same time, draw $4,000
a year as president Taking into
account Grants well known greed, moth
ing would crafty HIM more than double
salary, a possible prize which he will not
willingly relinquish. The New York
Sala, believes Grant is still in the field for
third term, and adduces cogent reasons
for so believing. The Sun asks the ques-
ton, "Is the third term conspiracy aban-
doned?' and answers thus:
Numerous predictions are put forth as to
who will be the Republican candidate for pres
ident in 1884. Many of these calculations as.
sumo that the third term idea is abandoned by
Grant and his friends.
There is not particle of proof that this is
80. Not word to that effect has been uttered

Never have the people of this great North
west had such an opportunity offered them to
secure valuable and beautiful article-with
out paying one cent therefor-as is now Of
fered by Cotton & Co.
The progress of Messrs. Cotton & Co., in
Minneapolis has been constant series
of surprises ito the people of the city
first in the immense stock contained in the old
store and the extremely low prices at which
everything was sold, next in the annual clear
ing out sales, when goods were almost given
away, and then in the erection of the wonder
full glass block, the almost incredibly short
space of time in which it was built, the varie-
ty and unlimited quantity of the goods with
which it was filled, the never before heard of
prices with which everything was marked in
plain figures, the music that was provided to
make the store as pleasant and attractive as
it was possible to make it. All these and
many more wonders of the same sort have
been the town talk of Minneapolis for the past
year, and now this enterprislng firm comes to
the front with surprise which discounts all
the others pat together.
They have procured very fine piano
(price $500 which they propose to give to
someone Free, ,cithout the payment of one
cent.
Every person visiting the Big Glass Store
will be presented with ticket securing them
a chance of winning this prize. No one will
be asked to purchase. This offer is made to
the public at large and not to Colton's GUS
toners only. The drawing will be conducted
in the fair, upright business manner for which
the firm is noted.
Someone will come into possession of this
fine instrument without any expenditure, and
it is as likely to be the reader of this article as
anyone else.
