A oB1BBRATFD INrsRTIHK.

A few days since the GLOBE published
in fall statement which originally ap.
peared in the New York Sun concerning
the Republican campaign management in
1880. This morning ID prints in full the
memoranda of an interview with Senator
Dorsey, which appeared in the Chicago
Herald Saturday morning. Following the
publication made by the New York Sur
the opinion obtained that Mr.. Dorsey sup.
piled the material for the same. That
gentleman says this impression is incor.
rect, that he had no hand in
that publication, and it was
done entirely without his knowledge,
and since he has seen it, it does not have
his full appreciation, first, because it is not
in all respects correct; second, because il
''goes over the surface like a milk skim.
mer."
The senator says, however, that the more
important parts of the Sun article are
true. Mr.. Dorsey gives new light regard
ing ''that damnable letter"-the "My dear
HubbelP' epistle. Mr.. Dorsey confrma
the Suns version of the Stanley
Mathews compact, and accounts fol
the disposition of the money
$4,000 being placed where il
would do the most good in Indiana.
$4,000 in Ohio. The whole expended in
Indians amounting to 100000.
Most kindly, even eloquently, does Mr.
Dorsey speak of General Garfield. There
rankles no maledietion in the manner, OF
the words, in which he speaks of him, and
his estimate of him is discriminating, anG
SO far as it applies to the case in hand
just.
Geo. Jones, of the New York Times, and
James, the postmaster general under Gar
field, Dorsey tells the truth about. There
Is no question about that. Great
indeed must have been the distress of the
president to permit man like James tt
enter his cabinet-a man without an eIe
ment of genuine manhood, look at hin
any way you please.
But enough. The reader is referred to
the statement as given in another place
And as he reads let him remember that
Stephen W. Dorsey was in 1880, and i.
now, just as worthy, just as pure, just al
clean-handed as any man-no matter who
or what his rank-who had relation to the
management of the Republican campaign
of 1880, and more than that, he had ther
and has now bigger brain and broader
executive grasp than any man, no matter
who, or what his rank, who was managing
force in that campaign.
The Sun publication and the Dorsey in
terview, rich as they are in development
are but the beginning of what is to follow
The truth has got out and cannot be KEEP
back. The people of this country-th,
common people if you please-are in

The earthquake at CasamincioIa, Italy,
yesterday, by which three thousand per-
sens were killed, was one of the most dis
astrous upheavals of nature of the century.
The village had population of less than
four thousand, and but few survived to
tell the story of the disaster. The village
was situated at the foot of Mount Epomeo
and was great resort for invaIids on ac-
count of the curative properties of the
thermal springs and baths that exist
there. There were few Americans there
at the time of the catastrophe.

Some Colleges.


Dakota bids fair to rival any state in the
Union in the number and character of her
educational institutions. With double the
amount of school lands that Iowa DOS
| sessed, and with her state university lands
we'll guarded, the state of Dakota will be
in position to do handsomely by her sons
and daughters. To-day the graded schools
of the villages and towns, and the
| schools of the rural districts compare
favorably with those in older states. The
state university opens in September
with fattering prospects. The interest
| shown at this early date by her citizens
] Is guarantee that Dakota's public school
system will be second to none in the In
| ion. The activity of the leading religious
denominations in establishing institutions
of learning, will also contribute largely to
the cause of popular education. The Con
gregationalists have established a college
at Yankton, which is provided with hand
some building and grounds with an excel
lent faculty and course of study. The
PresbJ terians have established at Pierre
the college of their denomination which is
finely endowed, and as soon as the prelim-
inaries can be arranged will take rank
among the first. The Methodists have
taken action in regard to the founding of
a university which shall be seca
ond to no institution northwest of Chi
cago. A million dollars in endowment
and building is what now lies in the power
of this denomination. The plan of the
executive committee also embraces a num-
Der of academies or small colleges which
will serve as preparatory schools. The
wisdom of plan so complete, of a foun-
datlon so broad, concentrating all efforts
upon the higher institution and at the
same time providing for its support
from below is at once apparent. The
latter Institution, the Methodist University
of Dakota, it is proposed to locate at
Mitchell. A beautiful site has been Sc
lected, and proper endeavor on the part
of our citizens will secure this institution.
Other towns stand ready to guarantee
all that is required. But a definite prop
osition stands before the people of
Mitchell, a proposition to which it is in
their power to accede, To accept the
terms offered is to secure the prize, the
location being subject to no other condi-
tions, to be effected by no other bid. The
advantages to accrue from the founding
of such an institution at this place, in
cluding the departments of law and medi-
cine, and after time theology aud dem
tistry, would be great. During the great
influx of immigration hundreds, and per-
haps thousands, of families would be
turned toward this seat of learning-such
families, too, as constitute the best citizens.
The increase in business and in BUILDING
by reason of this would be by no means
inconsiderable. There are men in Mitchell
possessed OF wealth and of generosity
who say that this enterprise shall not fail,
that Mitchell will at all hazards secure
the university. That any property holder
or business man can be blind to the bene
fits to result from activity and iberalitY
is improbable.

The Massachusetts Democratic cam

wonder they stand aghast at the promul-

ruption. But he is not that style of man.
The action of the Democratic committee
