The R,ssiness hTeetinn.

The second meeting of the annual en-
campment of the Grand Army of the Re-
public commenced shortly before 10 o'clock
yesterday morning at the university. After
prayer by Chaplain Foster the committee on
pensions appointed year ago reported.
There were two reports. Corporal Tanner,
of New York, presented the majority report
Of the committee which, in brief, favored a
graded scale, giving pensions to soldiers
who had received actual disability during
service, or had been incapacitated by reason
of sickness contracted during the war.
Gen. Paul Vandervoort, of Washington.
made the report for the minority, which IA
vored the granting of warrants to soldiers
for 100 acres of land, without regard to disa-
bility.
A lengthy discussion ensued, which occu-
pied the remainder of the morning session.
The majority claimed that the indiseriminatc
granting of pensions would lower the value
of the warrants, and would in time by the
selling of the warrants to spectators create
a vast monopoly and in the end would dam
age the interests Of the soldiers.
The minority claimed that the pensions
were the right of the soldier, and that it
would be better for the government to thus
dispose of public lands than to make enor-
nous grants to the railroads.
The report Of the majority was finally
adopted by large vote.
Gen. Wagner, of Pennsylvania, moved
that the matter of the standing of the sons
OF veterans be referred to a committee of
this lien to report at the cncampment next
year. Adopted.
AFTERNOON.
After recess of about two hours for din
ner the encampmeet again assembled, and
the presentation of the names of candidates
or commander-in-chief was taken up, after
the disposition of considerable routine bust
ness.

C. Burst, of Illinois.
Gen. Robinson, of Indiana, followed with
the presentation of the name of Gen. J. Z.
Carnahsn.
Kansas presented Thos. J. Anderson.

mated VIM. Warner

The people OF this city are surprised at the
abolishing of the office of deputy revenue
collector at Mankato. The Office here has
been well patronized, and there seems to
have been no. good reason for abolishing the
Mankato deputy collectors office. Deputy
Collector Owen has sold to one brewer of
this city during the past year 1000 of beer
stamps, and this office has been successfully
managed. The Mankato office is to be added
to the Albert Lea office.
The Manllato Red Cap Base Ball club
played at Mapelton Wednesday to large
crowd of visitors. At first it appeared as if
the Red Caps had the best of the game, but
the first nine of Mapleton proved
to much for the Mankato second nine. The
Mapeton boys are hard hitters and in the
last five innings kept the outfelders busy
hunting for the ball, many of their hits which
seemed good for two or three bags, proved to
be only singles through the prompt fielding
of the outielders of the Red Caps. f. G.
Davis, of Mankato, umpired the game to the
satisfaction of all. After the game the visit
ing team gave rousing cheers for the home
nine which was loudly reciprocated by the
Mapletons The Mankatos were most hos
pitable entertained by the Napoleon boys and
citizens in general and wish to express their
most heartfelt thanks to the people of Ma
pleton. The following is the score by in
nings which would have been lessened con-
siderable on both sides but for lost balls when
bases were full:

Three Episcopal curates recently joined
the Salvation Army in England. In public
ly announcing their reasons, No. 1 stated
that his great reason for enlisting was the
preference he had for travelling by an ex-
press rather than by an ordinary train. No.
2 left the church of England because, under
the flag of the Salvation army, he had OBJ
tanned ''clean heart.' No. 3 joined the
ranks simply because he preferred greater
liberty coupled with discipline.

F. G. Pillsbury's handsome gray gelding
Pedro gave an exhibition trot in top carriage
against his record of 2:25A. Hewas driven
mile to warm up, when he was sent off.
The start was slow, but the entire
mile was trotted without skip. The last
half was quite fast, but not satisfactory to tie
owner who held the ribbons. The time was
1861. Owing to business call Mr. Pills
bury was not able to give another trial One
of the handsomest exhibitions seen on the
track was that of the pacing exhibition given
by E. A. Parker, with Mr.. Baupre's pretty
little team frankie and Frank. Two heats
were paced, and both were honest and true,
not skip was made, and commanded the
admiration of every spectator, and the first
heat was made in 2:38 and the last in 1875

The letter is the fair, benign, honest side
of the Janus-face of the Republican candi-
date on paper, with the deformed, sinister

will show that its apparent heartiness is hol->

and some of its most important conclusions
are unwarranted by the facts and assump-

CONSULTATIONS VS. THE VOICE
OF THE PEOPLE.

Day after day the lines Of the political
parties are being drawn into position.
The contest for the highest Office in the
gift Of the people will undoubtedly be as
ferce this fall as ever. The great prob
lem OF the parties at the presen, time is
not the underlying principals upon which
the platforms of the Pas, have been built,
but a combination Of circumstances which
are inevitable in effect, and which
will, at the same time, capture
public sentiment Even before the
members Of the leading parties have
assembled in convention there are intima-
lions sent abroad throughout the land,
that certain combinations are about to be
formed by leading candidates, against
their brother contestants, in order to cap
turs the organization Of the conventions.
This is done without regarding the wishes
of their constituents, or the united voice
Of the majority Of delegates. The man
", independent candidate, having that
becoming dignity of President, is thus
deprived of natural support by coward
" bargain, or as politicians like to call it,
machinery Of politics" This is an ele-
ment which is dangerous in the extreme.
The united wisdom Of the ballot should
have its full force. The leaders Of fac
tons have no right to subvert the inter
ests and wishes Of the people by per ar
ranged combination. If candidate has
genuine merit he should fight meritor
ious battle and stand or fall by his colors
The "unit rule" one Of the strongest
wheels Of political machinery has been
done away with. The plan of voting
BY ballot at primaries is being adopted
throughout the United States, and, the
next reformatory step in the progress Of
politics, we think, should be the adoption
OF measures to prevent a combination OF
factions from everything the rishtiul pow.

BLIND POOLS.

Every few days the kilograms report a
new bank failure. In nearly every in
stance the cause Of failure can be traced
either directly or indirectly to speculation
10 stocks. There seems to have been a
combination Of bankers throughout the
United States engaged in this class Of
gamboling. Many of them were men
Of good character aud reputation, having
large capital Of their own accumulation
The very fact Of being intrustcd with the
wealth Of individuals aud corporations,
seems to destroy the sense of value Of
property, millions Of dollars pass through
the hands Of banker in the course Of a
short time. Large transactions become
Of eight importance. They see where
their depositors have made fortunes by
taking advantage Of stringent circum-
stances. !. The greed for gain becomes 50
potent that judgement and discretion
cease to have controlling influence. They
not only invest all their own property in
marginal speculation, but they take funds
intruatcd 70 their care, for safe keeping, aud
throw them into "blind pool in hopes
that the wheel of fortune will so turn that
they can become millionaires. The mos,
extravagant imagination can not conceive
Of . scheme more hazardous than '.blind
pool" investment. II may be hoped TINT
the courts Of this country will see tina,
the full penalty Of the law is administered
to defaulting bankers who steal the hard
earnings Of their depositors. Public con-
6dence and commercial faith must be OK
tended and enlarged as the business Of
this country increases. National crcdi,
Is dependent to some extent upon the
financial standing Of individuals and cor
porations. If there is any power in the
penalty Of law, il should b invoked t.
punish defaultes aud to protect public
faith and confidence.
