IT'S said that Russell, late col
Iector of internal revenue for the
Richmond tVa.) district, foolishly
imagined his duty was to work for
the best interests of the govern
ment, and thereupon wrote to Sec
rotary Folger that he could, without
Iessening the efficiency of his Office,
reduce the expenses $4,000 year,
if the Secretary would sustain him
in eliminating politics from the
Office. The answer that Russell
received was to the effect that he
would be eliminated from the Office
and he was. One of these days
perhaps officials will learn that when
they are wanted to act in the matter
Of civil service reform they will be
invited to proceed.

"MR. COUGH on Silk Hats" is
the heading of a p ragraph going
the rounds of the press. Very few
of them are expected to keep the
pledge through life, but common
decency should have suggested to
Mr.. Cough, after the display that he
has made, the propriety at least
keeping off peoples silk hats when
he returns to his old ways.

The Yorng stallion Records.


In response to an inquiry we give the
following as the lowest records made by
two, three, four, and five year old stations:
The bay colt Fred Croker, sired by Elec-
tioneer, a son of Rysdyke's Hambletonian;
trotted full mile to harness when two
years old past in 2:254. This wonderful
performance was made in a race at San
Francisco, November Goth, 1881. The bay
colt Steinway, by Strathmore. has the best
three -year-old record for stations, 2:25I
made at Lexington, Kentucky, August 2Sth,
1879. The gray colt Romero, by A. w.
Richmond, has the best four-year-ol STALL
ion record, 1921 made at San Francisco,
October 22d, 1881. The bay colt Alcantara,
by Geo. Wilkes, has a record made at the
same age, at Louisville, Kentucky, Octo-
Der 9Th, 1880, of 2:23; only half of second
slower than the best.
Among the fve-year old performances
Gov. Sprague made the best, 2:2012; Won
Arnim next in 2:22, and Woodford Chief,
by Clark Chief, stands third, having a
record of 2:22ll. The most sensational,
as well as the most wonderful performance
ever made by baby trotter, was that of
the bay filly Wildfower, by Electioneer, in
trotting full mile in race of heats
in 2:21, at San Francisco October %, 1881,
being then just vast two years old. The
bay flly Eva, by Sultan, has two year
old record of 1926, made in race on the
same day nd place as Wildfower's great
performance.

4 Change Called For.

To the Editor of the Globe:
It is a self-e7ident fact that the Repub-
lican party of this state is rent nearly in
twain. Grown bold and defiant and AFRO
giant by many years lease of power, and
corrupt to a degree which has no parallel,
it is time it was relegated to private life.
There are many sincere and true Repub-
licans all over tie state who are sick and
disguised with the broils and dissensions
within the party, brought on by determi-
nation of this or that faction to rule. It is
only the leaders, those who hold Office.
and suck the public teat.
and who reap the various
emoluments that accrue to the victor. that
are so clamorous about peace and harmo-
ny when danger is imminent. The great
mass of the people of the state, the better
element of the party, who do the voting.
are dissatisfied with the way affairs have
been managed in the past, and they would
gladly welcome change. Can change
bring anything worse than the present
Is it probable to suppose that the Demo-
cratic party would or could be more lavish
in the expenditure of the public funds
than the Republican party? Does it fol.
low that a Democrat is corrupt
because of his Democracy? Are there
not careful, prudent business men,
Democrats, capable of managing the af-
fairs of state as successfully and econom-
ically as he would his own personal affairs ?
Will some astute political athlete solve this
problem?
When election time comes round and
MAJ 0ffian j
retain it they want votes, we hear the same
old story of the importance of maintain
ing party supremacy, AMI they pray for
harmony and the healing up of old sores.
lest the Democratic wolf should slip in and
rob them of their rights and the country
go to eternal smash. There are no great
political principles at issue in
state politics. 1t is simply a
clamorous horde sesking Office that
they may further enrich themselves. The
only question at issue is that of temper
ance, and the Republican party does not
commit its party to any policy upon the
question of the prohibition of the liquor
traffic" The Democrats can safely say
that much and stand on an equal footing
with that party, which is supposed to carry
the public conscience and public morals in
its political pocket. ItIseems to me that it
is about time this cry of Democratic cor
ruption in party that has had no chance
to show its hand in the last quarter of a
century should be stopped. It is not pos
slble to make matters worse than they are
now, and if men are sincere in their ex-
pressed desire to wipe out factions and
create reforms, let them show it by their
votes this fall, and vote for a change in
the political regime. RADIx.

TIE CHICAGO RACES.

CHICAGO, June 30.-The day was bright
and warm, but the track was slow from the
heavy rains Of Wednesday and Thursday.
The attendance was large, the betting very
heavy, the field large and the racing good.
First race, flash stakes for two-year
colts and FLIES, $25 entrance, play or pay.
with $500 added, 500 to second, half mile
winners purse or stake valued at $1,000 or
more, penalized five pounds, sixty-one
nominations, fifteen starters. King Kyrle
60 of in the lead, followed by J. l..
Cooper, Mohur colt, Gen. Harding, the
favorite, and Hannibal in the order
named. At the turn Gen. Harding went
to the front and won handily by two
lengths, Mona second and the Mohur colt
third. Besides those mentioned, Little
Casino, Greystone, Lnftin, Queen T.,
Conkling, Bob Miles and Lloyd Daily also
ran. Time, 1914.
Second race, purse $500, maidens, all
ages, $50 to second; mile and one-seventh
-McBowling, field horse, won by three
lengths; George L. I'd, Halfbreed before
Billet, the favorite Sd; Charley Lucas, Nc
Miss Goodrich, Girona, Little Emily, We'll
NOId NJ CIChloo, anu
Mayonaise, also ran. Time, so.
Third race, merchants stakes, all ages,
$50 entrance, half forfeit, $3.50 added,
$500 to second; mile and quarter. Thirty
nine nominations; seven starters. After
long and very tedious scoring the field
got away we'll together. John Davis led
the field by length, as they passed IN
der the wire the frt time, Slocum I'd, Har-
ry Gilmore Sd. The others punched two
lengths back. On the far side the field
ran into bunch a length behind John
Davis, and Slocum at the lower turn hav-
ing made running for his stable
companion, Apollo, Slocum was back a
length and John Davis, Aseender and
Apollo were the three leaders-Apollo won
by three lengths, John Davis I'd, two
lengths before Ascender Sd. Besides those
mentioned, Checkmate and Cleaner ran.

Capt. HerOd, SU.~'..on, and Pedro.

In the special purse at Minneapolis July
4, Pedro, Silverton, and Capt. Herod are
entered. The latter will probably be a
strong favorite before the start, especially
if he appears in as good form as at Still
water week before last. Silverton is
thought not to be in condition to trot a
bruising race, and it is doubted if the gray
gelding possesses either the speed or bot
tom, to beat the performance of the STALL
ion at Saltwater, and which there is no
reason to suppose he cannot repeat at
will. However, in order to win he will be
compelled to do his best, and then-you
can't always tell. 1t will undoubtedly be
good race, as each horse will be driven
for all that is in him, and they are bein g
keyed up preparatory for hot contest.
If the stallion wins he will be compelled
to again lower his record, provided Silver
ton appears in an average condition. In
the meantime, bet your money freely, boys,
and and "catch her while she rolls"

Monte, by Monicus out of Arcola by En-

before the season closes"
'Any 2-year-olds?"
"Yes, two. Royal Arch, full brother to
Com. Kittson's Blue Lodge, his sire being
Fellowcraft out of Bonnie May by imp.
Bonnie Scotland. He has been started
twice but suffered defeat on both occasions
owing to bad behavior at the post. The
other is Banquet by King Ban out of
Belle Boyden, by Enquirer. He is fully
16 hands, and a good actor, but will not
be started until fall"

mass prohibition convention will be
held at the Mahtomedi assembly grounds
at White Be4r lake July u, 1888. The
entire day Will be given to the work and
methods of the constitutional amendment
agitation committee &C. A. A, c. This
committe now consists of fifty representa-
tive members living in different parts of
the state, and its sole object is to secure
the Submission of the amendment to the
constitution of the state which shall pro-
hIbit the manufacture and sale of intoxi-
eating liquors. 1t seeks, therefore, to
combine the efforts of all friends for pro-
hibition, without regard to their political
affiliations. Its platform is broad enough
for all to stand upon and work in harmony
for the one object of prohibiting the
liquor traffic.
Governor st. John, the prohibition gov
ernor of Kansas, will deliver an address at
10 a. m that day. The afternoon will be
devoted to convention work proper, and in
the evening there will be a kind of ratifi-
cation meeting which will be addressed by
Governor st. John and other solid work
ers who will be present.
The grounds are delightful, and the
railroads will carry the people at excur-
sion rates, the object is a grand one, and
thousands should be there.
As this is one of the series of temper
ance conventions to be held from July 10
to the 18th, workers should, as far as prac-
ticable, come to stay, and all who want to
inquire concerning accommodations
should address Rev. 7. McClary, Still

Chinn & Moraa,.,s Facing Stable.

Mainly through the unbroken series of
successes of Leonatus, son of Longfellow,
no racing stable in the country is more
widely known than that of Messrs. Chinn
& Morgan, gentlemen who have spent a
large portion of their time in St. Paul for
the past five years. Col. Chinn has been
in the city for the past three days, the rain
at Chicago postponing the races, giving
him an opportunity to pay flying visit
to his st. Paul friends, and thus it was we
had the pleasure of a pleasant chat with
him in reference to the great Leonatus
and other members of the stable. AS a
preliminary it may be stated that Col.
Chinn is one of the best informed and most
enthusiastic horsemen in the country, and
when we asked him ''what about Leonatus''
the colonel was all enthusiasm.
"What about Leonatus" you ask, "why,
he is the greatest horse that ever looked
through bride. Just look at his breed
ing, by Longfeilow, from Semper Felix by
imp. Phaeton; I'd dam Crucifx by Lex
ington; Sd dam Lightsome by imp. Glen
coe; 4th dam Levity by imp. Trustee; 9Th
dam Vandal's dam by imp. Tranby. You see
there are no breaks in this breeding, and
that in it is combined the crosses of Lea
mington, Lexington and Phaeton,
with the dorble Glencoe cross
through Pocahantas and Lights ONE, from
which has sprung nearly all the noted per-
formers of the American turf"
"How does he stand the work he has
had?'
"Work, Why he has had no work, the
the fact is he has never had to run yet, it
having been nothing but play for him to
beat the horses he has met, and there were
several good ones among them, too, nota-
bly, Drake Carter, Lord Raglan and As
Gender; plucky race horses and speedy,
but Leonatus breaks them all up,
he has 80 much more speed
and stamina. / never saw horse that
likes to run so we'll as he does. He enjoys
it from beginning to end, and in making
the run will keep his eye on his Jockey to
note if he wants him to stretch out a little,
and when the finish is made he is as quiet
as kitten. Oh, he is wonderful horse,
as fine as silk, not a blemish upon him,
and as coltish as a two year old, except
when attending to his races, and then he is
all business"
"Shall you go east?"
81 don't know, but hardly think l shall.
You see he is only entered in one stake,
the Omnibus stake at Monmouth park,
Long Branch, July Is. That will hardly
justify me in taking the risks connected
with the long rail ride, change of climate,
