WE 3ARE III 1IIERICANS.

It is announced that there is detection
among the Republican Jews who have hither-
to supported the party in power. Young
Seligman, whose father. Jesse Seligman, has
long been noted for his lavish support of the
Republican party, it is said, has Withdrawn
from the support of Blaine. This rumor is
announced as rebellion of the Jews in the
Republican ranks. 1t is singular how little
is heard of Americans in this contest. The
Irish, the Germans, the Jews, the Scandi-
navians, seem to be the parties who are in
terested in this election, and the only ones.
No one seems to fancy that the native ele-
ment has anything to do or say.
Some day, it will happen that this country
will be made up of Americans who shall
nominate an American candidate, and who
shall vote for him as Americans. There is
an everlasting discussion now as to what
will be done by the foreign vote. In that
good time coming, there will be no foreign
vote polled or recorded 1t is not the Irish
American vote that is being discussed or APP
dinavian-American, but the Irish vote, the
German vote and the Scandinavian vote.
Now the GLOBE insists that no Irishman,
German or any other foreigner has a right
to vote. When he becomes naturalized he
then has a right to the ballot, but he then
ceases to be an Irishman, German or any
other kind of q FOREIGNER

The Mischief of an Unextinguished
Match.

A still alarm was sent in to the department at
$50 last evening, caused by volumes of smoke
seen pouring from the open windows of the suite
of law rooms of John NJ Gilman, in the second
story front of John L. Merriam's brick block,
adjoining the Opera house, the ground floor of
which is occupied by the American Elk
press company. When the fremen
arrived E. H. Oman, assistant conn
sci for the Northern Pacific railroad,
whose Office is in the same building, had broken
in the door of the back office, and he with the
fremen threw water with pals upon a bed
and clothing found to be in flame and smudge
in anteroom occupied by a law student
named Holman for a sleeping room, and having
a swing window opening into the main hall. The
suite of rooms and hall were filed with dense
smoke, the floor of the anteroom was burning in
spots. and after the fire got under control
the smoulderng bed clothing was thrown into
Fourth street from a window. Holman had
scratched a match in the room to light lamp,
carelessly throwing it down upon the bed before
it was completely extinguished and then
he went over to the city library for a few
moments. His surprise was unfeigned
when he returned and found the mischief it had
done in his absence There were great
fears that the large audience in the Opera
house would be thrown into a panic, and
the manager, who was on the alert was in readi-
ness to hold them down on the least show of
fright. But very fortunately the intelligence of
the fire reached but few persons in the house,
and they very wisely kept their knowledge to
themselves. To say the least the early discovery
OF the fire, and the prompt action of the fire de-
partment was fortunate indeed.

arranged for the voting of its quota of clerks.

BROTHER CLAPP, who has been pap-suck-
ing leech for a quarter of a century, and OF
late years has run the government printing
office in the interests of Clapp and the friends
that keep him in place, is declaring that
New York will give Blaine seventy thousand
majority. Mr. Clapp is Chairman of the Re-
publican Finance committee and is nagging
the clerks to make 'Voluntary'' contribu-
tons to the Blaine fund. The clerks tell Mr..
Clapp that under the circumstances that
Blaine is carrying everything before him
and is sure to be elected, it is unnecessary
bleeding to call on them for money. This
only fires up Clapp to be more persistent for
blood money, and the poor devil clerks must
pay or prepare for the guilotine ''when Mr..
Blaine is elected"

MILWAUKEE, Aug. 14.-About 1000 people
witnessed to-days game. Arundel, st. Paul's
pitcher was not in good condition, and was bat
ted freely, while Cushman pitched finely for
Milwaukee. Foster is still nursing his arm, and
it was thought injudicious for him to occupy the
box. Foley, who acquitted himself SO we'll in
the position of short stop at the two previous
games, was unable to play yesterday, being con-
fined to his room at the hotel by sprained
ankle. Sections base running, with Behel's
running and full length dives for bases were the
features. Hogan's long run for and capture of
q foul fly to the right field seats was creditable
play in the third inning and when in the ninth
Morrissey made a dash from third base to the
corner of the grand stand and captured with one
hand difficult pop up the crowd fairly went
wild. Sections three base hit to the left center
fence in the fifth inning brought out many ex-
pressions of praise. One out credited to Behel
in the first inning, was in consequence of his
being hit while running from second to third by
a swift grounder from Moynahans bat. Follow
ing is the score:
