Fourth Unr.d Election.

A special election was held in the Fourth
ward yesterday to elect an alderman to fill
the unexpired term of Aid. Greenleaf, re-
signed. The Democratic candidate was
John T. McFarlane and the Republican
candidate was Emerson Cole. The
first precinct of the ward
always casts heavy Democratic ma
jorities from the reason that so many lum-
bermen board in that portion of the city.
But fortunately for Mr.. Cole these lumber
men are mostly in the pineries yet. The re-
suit was walk-away for Cole, although that
is not saying very much, taking into con-
sideration the fact that the
ward is strongly Republican,
The vote was light. This is accounted for
very easily. The laboring men did not feel
sufficiently interested to lose portion of a
days time for the lone purpose of voting for
one man. The dinner pail brigade did not
turn out. The vote by precincts was as fol-

THE workingmen of the city are bitter in
their opposition to Geo. A. Pillsbury. All
the meetings of the trades unions and the
trades assembly makes no bones of the
matter. They are fearless and outspoken.
A man who favors convict labor as against
honest industry cannot command the fran
chise nor the influence of the dinner-pail
brigade. Mr.. Chadwick fired some hot shot
into the Republican camp, at the meeting of
Friday night, which created con-
fusion and filled the hearts of
the Republican bosses with utter
dismay. These enthusiastic meetings are
only prelude to what is to come before the
close of the campaign.

THE Republicans are badly ruptured. A
large per cent. of the most upright members
of the party are heartily Disguised with the
treachery resorted to in the effort to bull
doze Mr.. Wyman from the contest. Mr.
Wyman had the pledge of Mr.. Pillsbury, in
writing, that he would n OF under any circum-
stances be a candidate against Mr.. Wyman.
The latter upon this assurance, presumably,
at that time at least, given in good faith, act
cepted the petition of 1850 representative
citizens and declared himself a candidate for
mayor 'Euntil the close of the polls on cleo
ton day. Then came in the work of the
Republican bosses. They dared not trust
Mr. Wyman's doubtful Republican proclivi-
ties Besides, should Mr.. Wyman be
elected it could not be claimed an out and
out Republican victory, and there was an I'M
portant issue dependent upon that. Treachery
was the base of the next movement, Mr..
Wyman's name was fired peremptorily from
the Republican city convention, and Mr..
Pillsbury placed in nomination, the result OF
well planned and concerted movement
Hacks were ordered and loaded with the
traitors who had stabbed Mr. Wyman in the
back, and driven post haste to Mr.. Wyman' S
office. Hours were consumed in praying
Mr. Wyman to withdraw from the field, but
in vain. Mr.. Wyman had been ignomini-
ously sat down upon and he felt
the deep insult. But the unprincipled
schemers were equal to the emergency.
Fifty of the names representing those
citizens who had asked Mr.. Wyman to be-
come their candidate had been printed. Now
mark the cheek of the fellows. They asked
Mr. Wyman, if in the event majority OF
these fifty men should, over their respective
signatures, ask him to withdraw, would he
comply. He fell into this trap and was po-
litically wiped out forever. 1t is the opinion
of many intelligent and unprecedented
citizens that had Mr. Wyman PERSISTED in his
candidacy as his manhood should have
prompted him to do. that when the votes
were canvassed it would have been found that
his vote would have exceeded that of the
traitorous faction. 1t was just this result
which the Pillsbury henchmen realized and
wished to avert

elected as member at large, but declined in
favor of liver SHE, a gracious act which was
appreciated by the meeting.
The most fastidious and fault-fnding Re-
publican could not discover ANYTHING
irregular in the action of the Democrats as
sembled last evening in the Sixth ward, but
on the contrary, some Republicans present
acknowledged that it was the most orderly
and harmonious caucus of any party held in
the city. There was no yellow or white
tickets preceptible, but business was trans
acted in the regular Democratic way-aH by
reclamation.

NEXT Tuesday morning the Democratic
city convention will be held in Turner hall,
The Republican bosses are already exultant
In the anticipation that the
convention will break up in a
disgraceful row. 1t stands the Democrats in
hand to disappoint them. A determined
struggle must ensue, but there is not shad-
ow of reason why it should be a disorderly
struggle. There is now breach that may
be overcome. 1t is duty which each dele
gate owes himself as well as his party, to act
with discretion-honestly and fairly. Can
vass the whole matter and let right prevail.
Then will the Democrats of the city present
a solid, unbroken and resolute front to the

wished to aver

IN Justice to William McArdle, the Demo
cratic nominee for alderman in the Third
ward, the GLOBE will contradict positively
and incontrovertibly the base lies published
by the political shutters of the Tribune and
the subtle tricksters of the p. p, respecting
the Third ward caucus, which placed Nc
Ardle in nomination. That the caucus was
a large and enthusiastic gathering it is true,
but the base allegation that it was a disor-
Derby mob is palpable lie, as is also the
charge, coming from the same disreputable
source, that the caucus was packed by gam
blers, etc., from the Fourth ward. Mr.. Nc
Ardle in advance of the caucus demanded Of
his friends who reside outside the boundar
les of the Fourth ward, that they refrain from
taking any part whatever in the preliminary
contest. He is too honorable
to accept the candidacy of
packed or Legitimate caucus. He is
pre-eminently the choice of the Democrats
of his ward and this fact will be clearly
demonstrated at the polls.

MINNEAPOLIS ADJUSTMENTS.
The Grand.

The Grand was opened on Wednesday
evening for the first time last week, when the
Saltwater Choral union rendered Gilbert 81
Sullivans sparkling opera "The Pirates OF
Penzance." That it was remarkably well
done considering that it was produced by an
amateur organization is not saying jot too
much.
Haverly's Mastodon Ministries followed on
Thursday night and they did mammoth
business for the balance of the week, packing
the Grand at each appearance with happy
and delighted audience. The company is
superior in every respect, being composed of
the best minstrel talent which that premier
manager, j. 81. Hayerly, can procure.
BARRY FAY.
Barry g. Fay will open at the Grand to-
morrow in Irish Aristocracy. This is one of
the most enjoyable funny comidies upon the
stage, and Messrs. Barry & Fay are Irish
comedians without peers. They packed the
Academy last season and will not draw lighter
houses this season.
ROLAND REED
Will close the week in Cheek. He appeared
in this play, which was written expressly for
him, in this city last season. He is inimit-
able and has the happy faculty of keeping an
audience in constant round of laughter.
The play is entertaining and well handled.
Pence Opera.
The past week the Alliance specially COM
pany has done a fairly good business at the
Pence, but the season came to an unhappy
termination in the sudden death of
the trapeze performer, Albert La
home, last night in falling from
the ceiling to the floor, distance of twenty
five feet.
This week sensational border play, "No-
body's Claim" will hold the boards.

The Mayoralty Muddle.

To the Editor of the Globe:
The mayoralty middle in the city of Min
neapolis has assumed degree of conse-
quence, 10th ridiculous and humiliating and
altogether disproportioned to the real i'm
portance of the Office of mayor. From what
we see in the newspapers and hear on
the streets, an intelligent stranger would
naturally infer that our community is chiefly
composed of fools or people destitute of all
sense of moral and social propriety or largely
intersprinkled with a class OF monstrous I'M
blushing liars and slanderers. Mayor Ames
is stigmatized as moral reprobate, a mon
ster in vice and corruption, whose presence
as an official charged with important duties
defined by law, would not be tolerated in
such outrageously gross malversation in Office
as is charged upon him, in any other than
community of fools who were also towards,
and whose folly and moral insensibility are
only limned and illuminated in the extrava-
CANT censure and denunciation, palpably in
consistent and absurd, showered with cy-
clonic blast upon the subje ct of such appar-
entity senseless yituperation. 1t is most I'M
reasonable to credit this vituperative on
slaught with, any degree of sense and SINGER
ity; for this were an utter and absolute in
compatibility.
So it appears to one who knows nothing of
all the vileness attributed to Mayor Ames,
and to whom it appears so unreasonable as to
be incredible; and yet would consent to
any censure adequate to the offensive course
of the mayor were he guilty of half the vile
ness, officially and unofficially, with which
he is charged. Our Republican friends have
been very indiscreet in their mode of pro-
cedure againt the present mayor, and al
though he were guilty as they represent, they
may succeed in re-electing him.

Slater Reviews the Northern Pacific
Land Grant.

Slater, according to notice given some
pays since, presented bill to forfeit the
unearned land grant Of the Northern Pa
cific railroad company, addressed to the
senate. On motion to refer the bill to a
committee, he reviewed the history of
the land policy Of the government, and
severely criticised the course of the land
department, reading from the testimony
of an employe Of that department to
show that debts were resolved in favor
of railroad corporations and against set
tiers. In referring to the Northern Pa
cific railroad. said that IN the lifetime of
its grant that that road had earned TO-
100000 acres of land, and since the term
of the grant expired had earned 30,OOO,-
900 acres. Congress had been most lib
eral to that road. No corporation had
been made 50 enriched by government.
In round numbers, this corporation had
already over sl1 100000 nom the sale Of
lands. In round numbers it mad earned
lands to the amount Of 100000 acres,
which, at the lowest estlmate,wil realize
to them S10O,G 900, and its coal lands on
the Sound were so valuable that it would
not sell them at any price. The company
was not entitled to any leniency; it was
simply entitled to the letter of the law
no more. Slater said that by his bill he
sought only to forfeit lands adjacent to
uncultivated portions of the road, not be-
ing able to satisfy himself that any other
portions of the road were now within
reach of congressional legislation. He
moved reference of the bill to the COM
mittee on public lands.
