A GRAVE MATTER.

When the Buffalo Evening Telegraph came
out with its shameful story of Gov. Cleve-
lands gross immoralities, the Journal took
no stock in it. We supposed it was simply
the effort of Sensational sheet to ''raise
hades and sell newspapers" or the custom
airy installment of campaign defamation
which is to be looked for from political or
gans of the baser sort. And even now, al
though these charges are taken up, reiterated
and expatiated upon by paper of such high
pretensions to purity as the Minneapolis
Tribune, and although they are vouched for
by Baptist clergyman of Buffalo, we do not
feel like creditng them, or like giving the
salacious details the publicity of our columns.
The clergyman in question, the
Rev. Geo. Fl. Ball, whoever, he is,
affirms that Grover Cleveland has the reputa-
ton in Buffalo of the grossest RIGHTEOUSNESS,
and he repeats, with names and dates, the
Chronicles story of how Cleveland wronged,
betrayed and deserted working girl at Buff
falo. We don't know Ball-we don't know
anybody else who knows him. We are OPP
posing Gov. Cleveland for the presidency,
but we are frank to say that the word of an
unknown clergyman should not be taken to
fasten ruinous charge upon man of pub
lie reputation who has been honored by his
neighbors with the highest trust We do k7soc
a citizen of Minneapolis nho cas brought up in
the same neigaborhood NTH Mr.. Cleveland, mho
has knosc1 him intimately from boyhood, and
,cho pro,aossnces the Rel. Mr.. Ball yile Sian
derer.
1t is sometimes perplexing question how
far the private character of candidate for
public office is subject for legitimate discus
sion. The safest rule is to let his private
character alone, and to determine his fitness
by his public record. OF course crime should
be punished In high places as well as low,
and if we believed Grover Cleveland guilty
of what is alleged against him we should say
he ought TO be in the penitentiary
instead of passing as candidate
for the highest Office in the
peoples gift. But is it likely that if Mr..
Cleveland was such man as the salacious
Tribune publication represents him, he would
have so long escaped exposure, occupying as
he has done for years, so prominent posi-
ton in the public eye! 1t is monstrous, in
credible, and we refuse to believe it even OF
an opponent.
If such charges are to be fastened upon the
Democratic candidate, The Journal will gladly
leave the filthy task to other publications. We
refuse to have any lot or part in the dirty
business

To the Editor of the GLOBE.
.sIf saw an Irish1nan voting the Democratic
ticket would feel like shooting his heart out !.
On the Irish !"
These were the identical words which
greeted the ears of the writer while passing
along Wabashaw street, in front of the West
Publishing house, last evening shortly before
7 O'Clock. Coming, as they did, from the
lips of a respectable looking person, an
Irishman as / took him TO be, in converse
ton with well known aud prominent citi-
zen of St. Paul, l was somewhat taken
back to say the least. The emphasis with
which ssD-n the Irish'' was uttered made
me wonder in my innocence Of the extent to
which political venom permeates some
natures, what, under the sun,
or the reign of Republicanism, could cause
such an outburst OF hearty, whole-souled Vi
tuperation against nationality to which The
speaker himself belonged. Can it be that
he Is struck on Jim Blaine and his super
human 60 efforts in aid of Irish-American
prisoners in English .'stone jugs while he
was secretary of state. Is it possible that
he can honestly, and without any selfish OBJ
iect, give his support and countenance to
person who is ashamed to own the religion
which his mother practiced so devoutly and
taught him SO earnestly, simply because he
thought it stood in the way of his advance
ment toward power and emolument In free
| nation, where Protestant stands no highe
under the constitution than q Papist, and
where an Irishman is as good as any nation
atty under Gods heavenl Such man has
surely been dazzled by the supposed thundrous
eagle screams which our whilom first officer
of state Is credited with having sent booming
over old ocean to the lair of the British hon,
but which that lordly beast seemed not to
hear, evenwifh the wind in the right quar-
| ter. Not anyone but would be traitor TO
the interests of his race, or . paltry seeker
after some 'ssniden Office, can with truth

The season at this moment is q remarks
bly, dull one. There Is aulIness everywhere
lin politics, in society, aud in trade. There
is very little doing in any direction, and a
species of stagnation has settled over the
entire country. This is seen in the conduct
of the political Campaign, which has fallen
below, in point Of interest, that Of any
campaign for many years. The fault is
with the public, and not with the newspa-
pers, especially those advoeatlng the election
of Blaine. They ara active and indefatlga-
bic. They fill their columns each day With
announcements that TIE Democratic meet

A R,ch Treat Promised In the Production
of"Lady Glare" To-Ni0ht.
The Wallack Theater company open an
engagement at the Grand Opera house to-
night, presenting for the first time in St.
Paul Lady Clare' and Moths the two
most successful dramas of last season In
New York.
The plays will be presented with the
original casts and scenery, and an artistic
success is assured. The sale of seats thus
far has been very encouraging, and large
audience viii no doubt witness the initial
performance of Lady Clare" tonight.
In referring to this drama the critic Of the
New York Neos says:
1.-THE charming domestic drama, "Lady
Clare,'' now filing Wallacks theater at each
performance, is the most compact and cohe-
rent drama produced in a long time. It's
fine, beautiful scenes-each a work of art
are so many dramatic surprises, yet entirely
probable, and the work OF the actors natural
and artistic. The beauty OF the sets is only
equaled by the merit of the drama and ex-
quisite acting of those who interpret it.'

What the Cranks are Doing.

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Thc cranks who
visit the White house and are captured and
sent to the insane asylum or transported to
their homes are not the only people who
bother the government authorities. Many
operate through the mails and the recent
cholera scare has turned these great minds
in new direction. One has an invention
for the immediate production Of chlorine
gas, an excellent disinfectant, for which he
has cholera specific worth similar sum
and he wants the cabinet instead of board
of preiudiced physicians to examine his cure.
Thomas Mather. Of Atlantic City, offers
certain cure for small pox for large sum.
He has written letters to the government,
General Hamilton in way that touched Mr..
Mather's vanity and he answered with an
anathema of DR.. Hamilton and doctors in
general He also makes threat
that if his cure be not soon
purchased by the United States, or
some other nation be win withdraw it from
the market aud allow the responsibility Of the
millions of widows and orphans caused by
his failure to negotiate to rest upon the gov
eminent and DR.. Hamilton Another philan-
thropist is J. A. Schrophel, of Wuzberg-On-
the-Yain. who has an invention which will
fully free pork and ali kinds of American
pork products from trichine and hog chol-
era. He guarantees cure, and IL success
full he wants 5000, 900, payable in ten years,

REPUBLIC1y YULPTRES

What George VIM. Curtis once said of
Lincoln is now being quoted by Republican
papers. What is this done fora Is 1t to as
perse Lincoln that there is being circulated
what was once said of him by man who,
ut the time of the utterance, was one of the
most intellectual, respectfully the Repub-
licans-and eminent scholars and thinkers
in the countrys Not at all. 1t is being
done to damn the man who said it. What
Curtis said, he said twenty-four years ago,
and at the time, his utteranees never drew
word of remonstrance from the Republican
party. AT the time the opinion of Lincoln
entertained by Curtis was endorsed by the
party. A quarter of q century later his
opinion is quoted to show what scoundrel
he was at that time to make fun of the
sainted Lincolnl
How these Republican vultures are befoul-
Ing their own nests They try to damn a
man for saying once what they all endorsed
st the time. In something of the same
stultifying manner they are valiantly en-
gagged in defending Blaine when he is at
tackled by the facts which they themselves
furnished. The Chicago zis6assas pronounees
as scandalous lies charges against Blaine
which were set forth in its solumns four and
eight years ago. The same nen are abusing
Mast, who for years have been elevating him
to the rank of der4l-Eod.
Itmust BE difiiealt 10 be Republican edi-
tor. One Of. them must feel that he is a
sneak, a fraud n being under the necessity
of damning to-day what he Despatched with
praise yesterday. and Of supporting and
eulogising now what he has but just ceased
reviling He must look on himself as dog
that is ''sieked'' 6 one moment by his
owners to bite the heels OF the man whose
boots it humbly licked an hour since at the
command Of the SINE master.

porters of the Republican ticket are the Judge

though Mr.. Blaine may carry his little Hatchet,
and though the Judge may be on his side, we are
