4 Kindred Boon, at MORRIS.

MORRIS. Stevens Co., MINI, Oct. 49,
A large delegation of citizens, accom-
panied by the Morris cornet band, were
at the depot this evening to meet the Hon.
DIR. Bert. Robertson, speaker of The evening.
The doctor was escorted to the court house
hall where very fair audience gathered and
where they were treated to one of the most
calm and logical discourses which the cam
paign has furnished. The speech was Re-
publican essentially, and was full of clear
cut Argument. 1t was review of the
status of the two great parties. The
speaker turned to the consideration of the
unhappy family quarrel now in progress
IN the ranks of the Republican party. The
record OF the District Convention was TAX
en- up and the question on the regularity
of MIR. kindred's nomination was clearly
and finally settled We showed clearly
that the Nelson party went to the Detroit
convention determined not to submit to
the will of the majority and with the
written agreement between them that
Nelson was to be nominated if it was nee
essary to bolt to do it. There was
no abuse or invective INDUCED in
against Mr.. Nelson, but the gang
OF corrupt scoundrels who compose
the pine land ring were subjected to the
most scathing review and their close con-
nection with Mr.. Nelson shown. The Nor
thern Pacific land steal charged against
Mr.. Kindred was exploded and the words
of President Willard quoted, who said, eff
Z. +. Kindred is thief, SO are we all, for
we have all bought land with bonds which
Is all he has done, and as we are stockhold-
ers we would not be likely to steal from
ourselves"
The speaker was loudly applauded, and
the impression created will be felt on the
9TH of November.
The meeting at Browns Valley
last evening which was also addressed by
DR.. Robertson was large and enthusiastic.
The Valley is Kindred stronghold and
will be heard from when the vote is
counted

What Constitutes an Obstruction of the
Mails?
KANSAS CRY, No., Oct. ia novel fea-
ture has appeared in the Higginsville post
master case, and was argued in the United
States courtdo day. The grand jury yes
terday returned an Indictment against
Edward Claypool for obstructing the
mails. The facts as heretofore published
are that at Higginsville, Mo-, last August
a quarrel arose between Claypool and
John W. Endley, the postmaster there.
Claypool, it is charged, on the 2sth of
August entered the postoffice Just
as a pouch of mail was received and as
saulted the postmaster, and during the
melee, which lasted some time, the mail
could not be distributed. Immediately on
returning the indictment, the defense filed
demurrer maintaining that the mail
could not be obstructed except when in
motion on railroad train, wagon or stage.
The prosecution argued that the mails are
in transit until delivered to the person ad-
dressed, and that the case in point comes
within the meaning of the statute. The
ruling of the court is awaited with interest,
as the point has never yet been passed
upon.

The TWO OYSTERS.

India, the oyster of Asia, and Egypt, the
oyster of Africa, are now in the possession
of England. The wry grimaces which
France makes in chewing the shell of AL
geria, Tunis and Sahara, and watching her
old rival reap the fruits of the Nile, and
the richer fruits of the great French canal
are natural. The young republic has now
strong bond of sympathy with despotic
Russia. Ever since Russias campaign
against Khokand in '63, she has been
digesting with ill-grace larger and larger
doses of Central Asia's deserts. Khiva,
Astounding in ai4nightingales, and
Bokhara, famous for its storks. were
but two plums in pudding of sand.
Egypt is very pleasant country to read
about, and since. the discovery of petro-
leum pleasant country to live in for those
| who like to anoint themselves freely with
that sweet-smelling oil. There is no other
way In which in that country man can
maintain his PROPER supremacy over the
insect world. The frequent presence.also
of persons who have put out an eye Or cut
off finger to avoid military CONSUMPTION
recalls unpleasantly the mutilations so
common in the ''Arabian Knights"
Europe and the Mohammedan world are
watching with growing interest what dis
position England will make of her prize.
Will the powers presume to treat her as
coolly as they treated Russia at the Berlin
| congress? The Latin nations are of course
vehementiy opposed to England's extern
sion of power in the Mediterranean. Rus
STA is no less opposed to Egypt's becom-
ing an English highway to India. Will
England yield to the conference after dis
regarding its mandate that Turkey should
restore Egypt to order? If Bismarck
sides with England the other powers will
not dare oppose them. The
willy chancellor is as usual master
of the situation, and the sight
of his two enemies, France and Russia,
sueing for his support against England,
cannot but be gratifying to his saturnine
humor. Though the powers are quiescent
over England's establishing protectorate
over Egypt, it is not probable that the
Mohammedan world will see itself cut into
two parts without murmur. If England
occupies Egypt permanently we may look
for a grand uprising of Islam and a
heroic effort made to expel the hereto.
The failure of this effort will be the signal
for the long looked for partition of the
Turkish empire.

DOG EATDOG.

The star route trial does not beam on the
administration with very constant light.
In its comet like course it is constantly
threatening to smash it to pieces. The re-
cent flank movement of the willy Robert
has placed the government itself on trial
The afidavits of Taylor, Brown, Nelson,
ETC., to the effect that the government tried
to bride the jury to convict, may not be re-
garded as gospel truth.
The attorney general will of course
assert that Taylor, who was in his
employment as agent for the
care of witnesses, was following the shrewd
advice of Lord Bacon, if you wish to i'm
pede an action the best method is to get
yourself made the agent to carry it out.
Certain facts, however, covered by these
afidavits and admitted by the government
afford occasion for few kindly sugges-
tions. The government admits that it en-
ployed agents known to it to be wholly un-
scrupulous to further the conviction of the
star-routers. Now, what is the plain En-
glish of this ? What wiltunscrupulous de-
tectives do for money against prisoner

conviction by perjury, bribery and the
skillful network of means known to
that most enlightened branch of jurists.
Had they done SO in this case the govern
ment tacitly admits that it would have
accepted their services and paid for them.

been convicted, however innocent?

A BURNING SHAME.

Wholesale Discharge of Workmen from
the Government Printing Ohice-Having
No Votes Their Services are Not Needed.
Especial Telegram to the GLOBE
WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-Nineteen addi-
tional dismissals were made at the govern
ment printing Office yesterday, which
makes about 200 in all within few weeks.
and it is understood there are more to come
1t is said that those removed are residents
of the District of Columbia, and others who
have no political backing. One of the VIC
Tins in a communication in to-night's Star
says: II have noted the dismissal of work
men for no reason on earth save that they
are of no value to the party in power as
voters. We have no votes, therefore
We are to be deprived of bread.
This is the feat of Mr.. Rounds, and rigidIy
his minions carry out the orders while the
public printer is enjoying his vocation in
Chicago, and men and women by the score
are thrust out by the great printing house,
right on the threshold of winter to starve
or steal, No public man, no great politi-
cal leader would dream of championing
our cause, however just, earnestly appeal
ing to the sense of farmers, to the heart of
every upright man. Nearly 200 dismissals
already have been made, and the end,
we hear. is not yet. And this
is not on the score of scarcity of work or
a deficiency of money. In week or two
you will see the Office lighted up from
cellar to garnet, engaged in printing the
annual reports or the public documents of
all descriptions, which will keep the larg-
est establishment all the winter long.
Money is also more plentiful than ever,
the last appropriation being larger than
ever before. But neither work nor money
are for Us. We may witness strangers
enjoying the banquet while we must turn a
deaf ear to the pleadings of our
little children for what we shall not be
able to get them. We have no votes; that
is the sum and substance of our offending.
Commenting upon the above the Star
editorially says: "The communication
elsewhere in regard to the wholesale dis
charge of printers from the government
Office simply because they have no votes, is
commended to the prompt attention of
printer Rounds. Many dlscreditable raids
have been made upon the scant salaries by
the assessment highwaymen, but nothing
SO utterly shameless as the
cold-booded attempt to take the
bread wholly from the mouths
of the Washington printers and those de-
pendent upon them in order to convert the
government printing Office to straight
ont political machine. Another discredit-
able feature of the discharge of skilled
printers simply because they are citizens
of Washington is that the patronage mon
and party strikers brought here to FL
their places are in many instances thor
oughly incompetent workmen.

The Rcpssbydcass Revolt.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. |


NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-It now looks as
though nothing could prevent the election
OF the entire Democratic state ticket,
three weeks hence, and gain of four or
hve Democratic congressman. The revolt of
the Republicans seems to increase rather
than diminish. The sanguine stalwarts
who said that the storm would blow over
before election day, begins to aeknowl-
edge that it breaks out from a
new quarter every day. The Ohio cyclone
leveled more political shrubbery than any
wind we have had lately, and the tornadoes
that are raging along the line of the Erie
canal, and that are blowing down from
Buffalo, are causing the Republicans to
shiver and to hang out fresh signals. There
has not been known such Republican re-
volt in score of years. If the election
we're tomorrow Folger could not poll
thrse-ffths of the Republican vote of the
state, and it is not plain to see how he is
going to do much better three weeks hence,
for things do not improve.
