WHEN President Arthur was about to set
out on his Yellowstone park expedition he
made his plans to start on Sunday. Sec
retary Folger, who very well understood
what sort of frolic it was to be, urgently
requested the President to change his time
of starting, and not set out on Sunday. lie
pointed out the effect such proceeding
would have on the minds of the Christian
people of the country. The President
thought it over for a day or two and finally
decided to start at four o'clock Monday
morning. Ex-President Grant, who is a
devout Methodist, is not Sunday traveller,
neither does he go fishing on the Sabbath
day. A few days since his friend General
Porter, who is having a vacation, telegraph
ed him from the Catskill mountains that a
directors car was at his service for trip
to Long Branch on Sunday. Gen. Grant
declined the proffer, and at the same time,
80 that invitations need not be sent him
for Sunday pleasurihgs, said: 81 always
tried not to travel on Sunday when I held
Office, and there does not seem to be any
reasonable excuse for it now." In follow
ing the example of his predecessor, Gen.
Grant, President Arthur would stand bet
ter in the esteem of Christian people, even
though they knew he had no conscience in
the matter

The denial made by Mr.. Driscoll that
the Pioneer Press had suppressed the an
nual report of Gen. Sanborn, president of
the st. Paul chamber of commerce, in a
part of its edition, seems to have been
rash performance. In addition to the
information already given, it can
now be stated that Gen. Sanborn was
supplied with copies of the st. Paul and
Minneapolis edition of the P. P. of the
date in question, and that over month
sgo he exhibited the copies at the chamber
and numerous members can testify to their
own knowledge to the omission and to the
falsity of Mr.. Driscoll's denial. The
GLOBE has obtained a copy of the
issue of the Pioneer Press of June IL
as circulated in st. Paul which contains the
report of Gen. Sanborn, and copy of the
same date as circulated in Minneapolis
wherein the report is entirely omitted.
These papers are now on exhibition at the
GLOBE counting room, and any one curious
to see how double headed newspaper
is run can inspect them.
1t is quite probable that the
report of Gen. Sanborn appeared in moth
ing but the st. Paul edition and was ex-
cluded from the mails as we'll as from
Minneapolis. That it was excluded from
Minneapolis is susceptible of proof to any
one choosing to call and inspect the papers
at this Office.

trial hero tomorrow. kilograms were
sent to different points, and parties came
from Fargo and Brainerd to identify prop
erty, but failed do so. The supposition is
that the man will get free, although there
is little doubt of his guilt, judging from
the outfit, gold watches, rings, chains,
opera glass, and a burglars tools, fuse,
candles, matches, powder, drills, files and

The political horizon of the county of
Wadena already reveals threatening
clouds that promise to deal death and de-

vention will prove, no doubt, unusually ex-
citing. The chief fight will be sheriff and
register of deeds. For the former Office
G. W. Kingsley seems to have the inside
track, although no one can tell what time
will develop. Mr.. Kingsley is an excellent
man for the place, and has had all the
requisite experience necessary to make
thoroughly good sheriff. The other candi
dates are good men. For register
the prominent candidates are 7. G.
Thompson, W. L. Spencer, M. Williams
and B. P. Welch. Any change of base
will be noticed.

LONDON, Aug. 14.--There was a long de-
bate characterized with much obstruction
on the part of Irish members in the COM
mons last night on the vote for legal ex-
pense incurred In the recent criminal pros
ecutions in Ireland. Harrington alleged
that Myles Joyce, who was found guilty
and executed as participating in the mur-
der of the Joyce family in County Galway,
Sept. 18, 1882, was judicially murdered
despite the fact that evidence of his inno-
cenceswas accessible to Earl Spencer, Lord
Lieutenant of Ireland. Callan, member
for Louth, declared the government could
have. brought the Poenix park murderers
to justice without the evidence of James
Carey, but that Sir William Harcourt.
home secretary, contrived to have Carey
accepted as informer for the purpose of
endeavoring to connect some of the Irish
members of parliament with the murder.
Parnell repeated the charges of jury pack
ing in Ireland, of the reckless desire of
the government to procure convictions
for the purpose of striking terror among
the people of the country by the tyranni-
cal use of the power of secret inquiry.
Porter, attorney general for Ireland,
replying to the remarks of the Irish mem
bers said as long as ATROCITIES in Ireland
went unpunished, means of inquiry allow
ed by law, would be used without shrink
ing.
During the debate in the commons
last evening Harrington charged Lord
Spencer with having Miles Joyce hanged,
when he knew the condemned man was in
nocent He was called to order for this
remark, and then modified the statement
as mentioned in the foregoing dispatch
Realy, member for Monaghan, was also
called to order during the debate for using
violent language against officers of the
crown. Parnell, as protest against the
conduct of the government, moved that
the amount of money provided for the ap.
preparation BE reduced, but his motion was
defeated by "a yeas to SO nays.

Collector Simmons and Gov. Butler. The
governor explained that his sense of public
duty prevented his presence. "The tele-
graph operators" he wrote, ''are
engaged in conflict with
the Western Union company upon
matters of the deepest interest to both.
The length of its continuance shows the
bitterness which may be engendered, which
may lead into collision, in which official
action on my part may be required as a
conservator of the peace and executor of

manifestly improper, as chief magistrate,
that should appear, unoficially, taking
part with either contestants.
