THE Prohibitionists of the State are
soon to get together, we are told, and
put an electoral ticket in the field The
wisdom of such a step is very quest ona-
BILE, to say the least The result will be,
simply and solely, to lessen the Repub-
lican majority in the State. 1t will do
no present good either here or elsewhere
in the country, Very many of the best
men of the State take this view of the
situation. They believe that to aid the
Republican cause is to help on the party
of progress, the party which has done
more than any other for the nations
welfare. Said President IIamin in a
letter to Rutland man who asked him
to assist the Prohibitionists

THE events of Saturday night aroused
the community to realization Of the eX-
tent and character of the rum traffic in
thisvillage. Those competent to Judge
say that it has increased during the past
year. That there is too much of it is
plain to the most superficial observer.
And now is an excellent time for the en-
forcement of the prohibitory law. Those
who went into the fight would find
plenty of support Perhaps the States
attorney, even, would come down from
his mountain Businesses and take hand
if he were asked.

CLEvELAND's letter of acceptance was
published Wednesday morning. 1t is gen.
orally regarded by the press as an eX-
ceptionally vague, weak production. The
SIM condenses it into this paragraph;
He acquiesces in the principles set
forth in the Chicago platform; he has
views about civil service reform which
should please those Republicans who
asked for his nomination; he thinks the
working classes" ought to be protected.
and he indites few platitudes that are
fitted to any season.

MINNESOTA IRON COMPANY.
The Commissioner of the General
Land Office Decides Its Title
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

IcpeClal Telegram 10 the GlODe.
DULUTH, Mimi, July 21.-Readers Of
daily papers may remember somewhat SEN
sational dispatch from Duluth some three
weeks ago, to the effect that four well known
citizens of this place had just filed aftdavits
in the United States land office here and
made application to contest the title of the
Minnesota Iron company to some of the
most valuable iron lands held by the COM
pany at Vermillion. The opinion was ex
pressed at that time by those familiar with
the facts that the applications would not
amount to anything, but the
land officers here, as was
their duty, forwarded all the papers to the
commissioner of the general land office at
Washington, and the commissioner under
date of July IA, wrote letter to the register
and receiver at this place in regard to the
matter, in which he summarily denies the
applications and gives the following good
and substantial reasons therefor:
/ haye to advise you that said entries were
patented May 20, 1882, and the patents were
transmitted to your Office May 25, 1882.
Patents having issued, the jurisdiction over
the lands covered thereby by this office has
ceased and no action can therefore be taken
upon said applications. From the time that
applications were filed the company has re-
garded decision of this sort as inevitable.

C1Dtaiu PerI;ins' Dn,t,,hfer.

1t has been generally stated that the seven
teen years old daughter of Capt Geo. H..
Perkins, of the navy, was the richest girl in
the world. There is mistake Of ten years
in the little millionaire's age, as she is not
seventeen but seven. Capt. Perkins gained
a gallant record during the civil war in 1870
when he had made his last conquest, that of
the heart of Miss Weld, the Boston heiress,
he had for his worldly possessions his sword
and room full of curios, which he had col
Iected during his voyages around the world.
He was well aware that having no fortune of
his own, by asking the hand of a daughter of
an old money-bags like Weld, who was worth
in the neighborhood OF thirty millions, his
motives were sure to be impugned, and this
cut the captain to the quick; but he loved the
girl and finally mustered the courage to pop
the question to the old gentleman, although
he did so with trepidation undreamed of
when in command Of the little monitor

up the captains bile and with energy he in

money, and concluded by saying, II have
not asked you for that, and don't want it.

can support my wife decently, and she is
perfectly willing to take me as am and you
can make such disposition OF your wealth as
you may see fit without taking US into CON
sideration.' This spirited reply both net
tied and pleased the old man, but ne took
care to provide in his will that his daughter {
share of his property should be settled on
her children, and as the little girl is the only
one living she is heir to the entire seven
