The publisher of the Pioneer Press took
occasion yesterday to denounce as an Sun
qualified lie" the statement that that
paper omitted the annual report of the
President of the st. Paul Chamber of
Commerce from its Minneapolis edition.
In the face of the multitude of living wit
nesses this is rather bold assertion. A
reliable citizen of Minneapolis, whose
name will be supplied if desired, called at
the GLOBE Office few days after the
omission of the report, accompanied
by Mr.. G. F. Mailer, of the firm of Field,
Mailer & Co., the we'll known st. Paul
dry goods house. This gentleman had
copy of the Minneapolis edition of the
Pioneer Press of the date in question
which contained no allusion to Gen. San
born's report. A copy of the st. Paul
edition of the same date was found in the
GLOBE Office and comparison of the two
sheets made, showing that after the Mime
apolis edition had been printed the forms
had been opened and the report inserted
for St. Paul diet. The Minneapolis
gentleman stated that the report
of Gen. Sanborn's being spoken of led to
the discovery that the Minneapolis sub
scribers had not been favored with copy,
and the omission became subject of gen
eral remark in that city, and he had industri:
ously searched for it, but every copy he
could find in Minneapolis was minus the
st. Paul chamber of commerce report
Besides Mr.. Mailer and the editor of the
GLOBE, the paper was subsequently shown
to several other citizens of st. Paul whose
names can also be supplied if desired. The
respective Minneapolis and st. Paul issue:
of the Pioneer Press of the date in ques
ton, ought to be able to decide whether
the reported suppression is an "unmitiga
ted lie," or whether the publisher in his de-
NAL is an "unmitigated liar"

that year and in 1881 change of thought
among $1,000 voters would have given the
state to the Democratic party. The col
orel voters of, LConnecticut were
1852, and change of 1900
in 1880 or in 1881 would have
defeated the Republican party. Indiana
had 1879 -colored electors, but if $500
voters had been reached by change of
thought, in either 1880 or 1881, Mr.. Arthur
never would have made his celebrated
speech upon the value of "soap."
In 1882 each of these five states went
Dem ocratic, and they are going the same
way in 1883, and if the negroes had voted
the Democratic ticket in 1880 and 1881,
there could have been no such thing as
Republican victory.
For years the colored voters in the south
we're driven to the polls in focks to vote
the Republican ticket, but that time has
passed AWAY forever. The negro voters
have begun to understand their power.
Education and the changed conditions of
labor have opened their eyes.
In nearly all the southern
states thousands of industrious
and frugal negroes have become owners of
land, farms and homes, and the opportu-
nifty is open to thrifty labor to extend this
proprietorship constantly.
North or South, these people, when they
know their strength and clearly understand
how to use it wisely and periodically, they
will be able to protect all their rights and
to get full recognition for a power
that is not to be disregarded
In Ohio this year the colored voters are
showing their Intelligent independence
and more Ct them will vote the Demo
cratic ticket than will vote to put the Re-
publican party again in power. So far as
they are concerned they have seen enough
of Republican rule, and know that as 6
policy it means nothing for them. They
propose to enjoy all the vested rights OF
their manhood.

IT will be seen by the official call of the
chairman that the Democratic state CEN

Got the Official "Bfg Head. ,,

Josiah Z. Lyon, the village marshal of
the town of Worthington, it is said, has
been getting in the ''big head" as an Off
cial for quite while, which eliminated
the other night by his arrest out of pure
personal spite of man and wife for
petty quarrel in that place and incarcerat-
ing them in the lookup. The mayor feel
ing that 1t was his duty to pull out the
tail feathers of this oficious official
rooster demanded of him that he release
these parties, when he drew a.
pistol on his honor and dared him to take
his keys. A warrant was at once issued
for his arrest for this offense. which was
placed in the hands of a deputy sheriff.
from whom he broke away after he had
served it. He was caught, however. by
she sheriff and two men whom he sum-
moned to his assistance, and while being
placed IN cell in the calaboose fired at
that officer, who narrowly escaped with his
life. Here, armed with his pistol and a
Ratchet, Josiah deied the 'swhole
world and the rest of creation. ,,
and it is very probable will have a chance
to cool his blood with residence at Still
water and lose his legal epaulets. The
community are very much incensed
against him, not only for his attack upon
the officer, and his daring the mayor, but
for his petty acts of tyranny against inof-
fensive people, and their incarceration on
account of his personal dislikes and whims.
Had he wounded the sheriff it is said that
the Infatuated people would have hung
him on the first tree that they found bio
enough for doing the job.

Hotc Burlington Got There.
Some of the inside work Of the capitol
commission in adopting the plans of Ar
chitect Burlington, of Minneapolis, is
coming to light. 1t seems that Hughes.
and Ordway had seen Burlington and told
him to be on hand with his plans. Several
of the members of the commission were
in favor of the plans of other architects,
and at private meeting four of the
members present agreed to adopt one of
the other plans. Burlington brought no
plans or specifications, but Ordway wanted
him to have the job, he and Hughes having
previously consulted Burlington in St.
Paul, and so stated, and he so stated to
the commission. Mckenzie had pressing
business east just at that time, so he could
not afford to be brought into the quarrel.
Meyers had not been notified of the meet
ing. The governor and Hughes evidently
carried the votes of Thompson, and Ma
theWs, and belong in their pockets, and
carried the measure over the heads of
Spaulding, Belden and Scott,
who opposed it. The commits
sion meets again tomorrow, aud if
Ordway & Hughes have a contractor all
fixed to take contracts for building. fur is

The Republican papers are very anxious
to treat Mr.. norsey's revelations in regard
to the purchase of the presidency in 1880,
as ancient history. 1t happens that that
line of evasion will not avail. The men
who were engaged in the disreputable
operations of that campaign can never

Bishop Ir Gland and Father O'COnnOr.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Aug. Is, 1888.
To the Editor of the Globe:
In leaving your beautiful city I desire
to carry with me to my home in New York
only the impressions of It's wonderful
growth and enterprise, and the pleasing
recollection of the cordial welcome and
hearty sympathy received from many of
its clergymen and citizens generally. All
except your distinguished fellow citizen,
Rev. j ohm Ireland, the Roman Catholic
bishop. In his paper of last week he
attacked nay personal character although
he knew nothing about me except that 1
had been Roman Catholic priest, and
was now laboring for the conversion and
enlightenment of my Irish Roman Catho-
lie brethren. You courteously afforded
me space in your columns to defend my
self, which did by stating that 1 never
was suspended from the priesthood of the
Roman Catholic church, to my knowledge,
and that the members of my large congre-
cation in New York city
were the best judges of my Eftness
to preach to them and of my character
and standing. In your issue of this morn.
| ing appears card from Bishop Ireland in
which he repeats his statement that 1 was
suspended for some cause or other by a
man VINO is now dead.
Will you permit me to assure your read
ers that my first statement was true, as far
as my knowledge of the facts extend. 1
withdrew from the Roman Catholic priest
hood freely and voluntarily in 1873. The
Bishop of my diocese, Foley of Chicago,
died in 1879 and whether he suspended me
in the interval do not know. Perhaps
he did, but never received any notifca-
ton Of it. Perhaps, he communicated
me also, but of this [ am equally ignorant.
From the days of Martin Luther to the
present, every Roman Catholic priest who
abandoned that church underwent the pro-
cess of accommodation by some pope or
bishop. If am no exception to the gen
eral rule. can only say that the courtesy
of informing me of the fact had not been
observed.
Bishop Ireland says that my statements
are not true. 1 shall not reply by saying,
you're another" though ween the lie d.
rect is given to man, human
nature works nightly within him to retail
late. I honor Bishop Ireland for his good
work in the cause of temperance, but I
think can best serve the spiritual inter-
ests of his and my fellow countrymen by
directing them to the Bible and salvation
by faith in Christ alone than by looking to
the utterances of an Italian pope regard
ing the salvation of their souls. With
sincere thanks for the candid and impair
tial reports of my addresses that have ap-
peared in your paper, I am, respectfully
yours, JAMES A. O'CoNNoR,
Pastor Independent Catholic Church, New
York.
P.S. The other priests associated with
me in the Independent Catholic movement
Bishop Ireland says they are only half
dozen suspended priests are we'll able to
defend themselves when personally at
tackled, and he is at liberty to write them
up if he is inclined that way. ia. O'C.

The Proprietor of the american House
Rises to Deny.
To the Editor of the Globe:
I am greatly surprised that the rewspa-
pers of this city have, without their ordin-
airy caution, and without any investigation
into the facts, given currency to the testi-
mony of a certain prostitute, calling her
self Emma Williams, who recently ap-
peared as witness in the municipal court
Her statements regarding my acts, and
her reflections upon my character are
wholly false. never knew that Emma
Williams or any other woman arraigned
with her were prostitutes, nor did in
any way aid their prostition.
1 never permitted or connived at immoral
acts in the american House, or any other
house under my control. At the same
time, am, like other hotel keepers, liable
to be imposed upon by the false and fraud
ulent statements of persons pretending to
be husband and wife, when they are not,
to be virtuous when they are vile, and to
be solvent when they are dead beats.'
1 have lived in this city, and have here
conducted the hotel business for fifteen
years, and my character has always stood
high in the opinion of those who knew me,
and especially among Scandinavians of
the best classes. L have never
been accused of wrong conduct IN
til this prostitute opened her mouth,
under the generous incentives of the police
force, and received her reward in the re-
mission of that fine which her guilt re-
CURED the court to assess.
1 deny every allegation made by this
woman Williams, and ask the public to
refuse belief in her false and unsupported
statements. Yours very truly,
THoRKILD WILSON,
Proprietor American House.

The Crops.

Crops are looking faely all over the.
valley. The yield will be hardly less than
twenty bushels an acre on an average
throughout the region and vicinity of
Grand Forks, and west on the Manitoba
road about the same until rolling ground
is reached, where it will probably go
heavier on the Northern Pacific road. The
heaviest wheat will probably be between
Tower City and jamestown, particularly
in the vicinity of Valley City. All around
Fargo, oats as we'll as wheat is looking ex-
ceptionaIly fine.

MORE inside history is given in our dis
patches this morning relative to the man
ner IN which Stanley Matthews attained
his present position on the supreme bench.
The story, which is vouched for on the best

and treachery of the average Ohio poll
tician, and exhibits Mr.. Hayes as we'll as
Mr.. Matthews in most unfavorable light.
From the details given it is apparent that

POWER OF THE COLORED VOTE.

The New York Sun invites attention the
fact that the negro voters hold the balance
of power in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio
Indiana and Connecticut. The census of
1880 shows, that the colored males in New
York, of the age of twenty-one years and
over, number 2O,050. In 1880 change of
1000 votes, would have defeated the Re-
publicans, and change of 1000 votes
would have done the same thing in
1881. A change of $4,000 votes
in 1880, and of $500 votes in
1881 would have given Pennsylvania to
the Democrats. The colored voters of the
state numbered 1882. Ohio had in 1880
the total of 21,7O6 colored voters, and in

Board of Health,

An adjourned meeting of the board of
health was held yesterday afternoon, DR..
Hoyt in the chair. It was decided to ask
the council for the sum of 800, to be used
as a contingent fund. A report was read
from a special committee showing that
the scow to be used for dumping purposes
would be ready for business the latter part
of the week.
DR.. Hoyt, chairman of the special COM
mittee appointed to investigate the sani-
tary requirements of the city, with the
view of organizing a revised code of
health, submitted a report accompanied by
new ordinance. The ordinance was re-
ferred to the council.
The new ordinance, if adopted, will
make a radical change in matters apper-
tanning to the health of the city.
Particular stress is laid on the necessity
of stringent quarantine regulations, in
order to anticipate any contingency in the
event of cholera or yellow fever epidemic.
In this respect the ordinance favors the
most restricted quarantine. In cases of
typhoid fever a quarantine is established
before death, and in all contagious diseases
where death comes the funeral is under the
control of the department; that is to say
in case of death the use of the hearse is
made obligatory, and the body must be
taken directly from the residence to the
place of burial, while not more than
two vehicles will be allowed in the pro-
cession.
The scavenger ordinance has also been
subjected to number of important
changes, and it will be placed directly IN
der the control of .the4 department, while
in all cases fines ard penalties are pro-
vided. As contemplated the new ordi-
nance will work admirably.

DITTMAN's STATEMENT.

Mr.. Dittman was seen by a GLOBE re-
porter last evening, and in replying to in
quiries said that his predicament was due
to his father-in-law, Mr.. j. G. Bettinger,
who had endorsed his note for $1,000 on
the bank of Hastings, and who had let it
go to protest. 'My affairs are in such
shape" he continued, ''that no one will
lose a dollar, as all of my creditors are
amply secured. As to duplicating notes.
there is nothing in it; Mr.. Bettinger has
paid good many of my notes, perhaps
$4,000, but he has no occasion for getting
scared. The fact is that he has not been
himself for several days; he has been sick,
and if in his right mind he would never
let me get in this fix; as it is, if could
have found him to-day this thing would
not have happened.
Of course 1 admit that did not give him
the kind of security he desired, and he also
denies having endorsed my notes, but if I
had known anything of this 1 should not
have waited until the last minute to pro-
vide against it." In conclusion Mr.. Dit
man said that while he owed $15O,OOO per-
haps, his assets were over 100000.
Last night Mrs. Dittman called on her
husband at the city hall and an affecting
scene was witnessed.
He was also visited by Mr.. Bettinger
and Mr.. W. p. Warner, one of his attor-
neys.
The case will come up to-day.
