A Radical CHANGE.

The rNpidity with which the world
progresses is astounding. The fashions
for girls who elopo just now are very
plain. Some white drapery, n convem-
lent window, n long ladder, dark night,
a coach, minister, and the house of n
friend, and the olopcmcnt is over. If
the iato father, armed with a double
barrcled coal shovel and town con-
stable, does not pursue, the affair is, al
though picturesque, not exactly q sue
cessEul clopomcnt. If the father of tho
bride relonts within two days the foolish
couple are not happy. If it leaks out
that tie mother OF the bride is in tho
secret much Of the pleasure of the trip is
spoiled. If both the father and mother
Of the bride are in the secret Of her 90
ing away and have actually left the lad
der near tho window, and that fact is
found out, the elopement is failure. In
the olden time the elopement bride
packed all her portable goods on herself,
and went away heavily laden. Now, as
she is about to return in day or two in
her lady-friend's dress, she goes away
quito light.

more cherries, if possible, than the the summer
months which preceded it. Ice was frozen
half an inch in thickness. Indian corn was so
frozen that the greater part was cut and dried
for fodder. almost every green thing was de-
stroyed in this country and in Europe. On the
30th snow fell at Barnet, forty miles from Lon
don. Very little corn ripened in New England
aud the Middle States. Farmers supplied them
selves from corn produced in 1915 for seed in
the spring of 1917. 1t sold from $4 to S5 per
bushel. September furnished about two weeks
of the pleasantest weather of the season, but in
the latter part of the month ice formed an inch
thick. October had ore than its share of cold
weather. November was cold and snowy. De-
cember was comfortable and the winter follow
was mild. Very little Vegetation was matured
in the Eastern and Middle States. The SUMS
rays seemed to be destitute of heat during the
summer; all nature was clad in a sable hue; and
men exhibited no little anxiety concerning the
future of this life.
The average price of flour in the New York
market during the year was $13 per barrel.
The average price of wheat in New England was
81 shillings per quarter. Bread riots occurred
throughout Great Britain in 1877, in conse-
quence of the high price of the staff of life.

would be folly for the colored race to place
themselves in a position where they would be
Dowerless to take advantage of the new order OF
things.''
You think, then, that the time has come 70
colored men to divide their vote?''
Il think the time is already at hand when the
colOred man must take car of himself. Poll
tics is business, and the colored man who clings
to the Republican party through sentiment, or
who expects gratitude from any PARTY, will find
himself on the bluff side of barren hill. Self
interest is the basis of all human action, and the
colored race have been educated to the point of
knowing that the ballot is the pole that knocks
the persimmOns.''
"How many colored voters will oppose For
aker?''
''From 5000 to 5000. Hoadly would poll
the largest colored vote, but any good Democrat
will receive enough support from the colored
men OF Ohio to make Foraker's election an i'm
possibility
There were other adverse forces enough
to prevent Republican success in Ohio be-
fore the disaffection of the colored voters
was developed. However skeptical any
may have been before, there is not the
suspicion of a doubt of an overwhelming
Democratic victory in Ohio, on the second
Tuesday of October next, and that party
will be put long way ahead for triumph
in 1884.

THE COLORED TOTEfN ONO.

The 'lovely" candidate that Boss Foster
nominated for Governor of Ohio is con-
fropted with an opposition within the
party that will add to the
momentum of his defeat. There are
fifteen thousand coIored people in Ohio
and all of them will be gratiffed to see
Foraker defeated because of his bitter hos.
tility to the civil rights law which is very
dear to the eolored mar. In days gone by,
Foraker has done all he could to defeat the
action Of the law, and in an argument in
the supreme court he Extensively went out
side of his case TO attack the colored race
When bright and worthy colored man of
Cincinnati was candidate for the legisla-
ture, Foraker pursued course intended to
injure the prospect of Mr.. Williams sue
cess. The colored candidate was elected
in spite of Foraker's hostility and he prov
ed as valuable and faithful member of
the legislature as any of his colleagues
from Hamilton county.
For these reasons the nomination made
at Columbus is very Objectionable to the
colored Republicans, and they are making
their dissatisfaction felt and organizing to
bolt the candidate for governor. A circu-
lar has already been Issued by the colored
leaders declaring their intention to work
and vote against Foraker and urging
colored men to stay away from the polls
or If they go, to vote against the Republi-
can candidate. This attitude will have a
vast influence in the campaign, and if
Judge Hoadly is the Democratic nominee
as there is no doubt he will be, the colored
men will vote for him almost solid. They
have respect for him for his manly quail
ties which challenge their confidence and
fill them with the belief that he would
deal more justly with them than Foraker,
who took sides against them when race
prejudice ran high.
An Ohio colored man, who holds a clerk
ship in one of the departments at Wash
ngton, being interrogated as to his feel
ing in the matter said that he expected to
see Foraker defeated by not less than
10000 if Hoadly is the Democratic candi-
date. Hoadly he said will hold the Ger
man vote as no other Democrat can and
he Will get large majority OF the colored
vote which heretofore has been solidly
Republican. The talk with this colored
man, who is one of the most intelligent in
the public service is instructive and with
out doubt reflects the feeling shared by his
people in Ohio, and probably everywhere

St. Paul Art Exhibition,

The art exhibition which opens this
morning is much finer exhibit than could
have been expected. The collection con-
tains as fine modern pictures as will be
found in any gallery in Europe or Amer
lea, The pictures are iudiciously hung.
the gallery carpeted and handsomely
draped. Altogether the exhibition will be
a great surprise to the st. Paul public, and
visitors will come from far and near. The
collection is simply superb, and it is not to
be wondered at when such painters as Cas-
anova, Hulk, Geishert, Jean Robie, Marcus
Simons. Won Marke, Urbana, Covine,
Swainburn, Munger, Frier and Suite con-
tribute to its excellence.
The most valuable picture in the gallery
cost $1,000, but the specimen of Won
Marke is perhaps the finest that exists.
Such an undertaking would have seemed
hardly possible, but st. Paul has a collec-
ton of pictures of which she may we'll be
proud, and it shows the culture and wealth
which is rapidly developing here. 1t is
not the intention to make this article a
critis1sm of the different works, as the pri-
vate view yesterday afforded the press
was too short for such an important writ
ing
The gallery will be opened at 10 o'clock
this morning, and the GLOBE heartily en-
dorses and commends it to the public.
The management have been at very con-
siderable expense, and season tickets, which
are to be sold at the low price
of 81, places the exhibition at the
reach of every one.
The gallery will be under the immediate
superintendent of Mrs. W. L. Anderson
assisted by Miss M. Cavanagh and Miss
Flora Grushes, and will be open from 10
a. IN. to 3 p. m. and from to 10 p. ID.
The amateur portion OF the collection
is exceedingly good andquite large. Mrs.
Jefferson, who has recently come to st.
Paul, is quite a large contributor, and
Mr.. Anderson shows some of his pic
lures.
The great picture of Casanova exhibited
by Mr.. Hill, is from this years saloon in
Paris, and is more than worth the price of
admission to see alone. The picture is
most exquisite gem, and Mr.. Hill would
not part it for $4,000. To see this pic
ture is rare treat, and the public should
at once give such enterprise its substan-
tial support.

The GLOBE regrets the loss of Mr.. Emery from
the editorial profession. He has been an out
spoken and independent editor, far
more so than is usually found even in
larger fields than he occupied. Mr. Emery re
tires from journalism on account of i'll health
and in doing so has the courage to pay this trib-
ute to his faithful wife:
By severe application and o casiOnal help
