Btg1U{Q1U,

About a. m. yesterday Officer Kelly heard
an unusual noise about the Chicago, Milwaukee
q st. Paul freight depot, and, thinking some
one was trying to break into car, took a run
about the depot and yard. When the clerks
came to go into the freight Office in the
morning they discovered an attempt
had been made to burglarize the companys safe,
large, unwiedy concern, that stands in the
corner. pane of glass had been removed from
one OF the windows and entrance gained to the
office that way, when with a railroad pick and
bar taken out out of the station house they began
work at the side of the safe. A lot of irregular,
ragged holes were made in the side near the top,
evidently with the pick, but the thieves were no
doubt scared off and did not gain entrance

THE Louisville Post remarks that Mr.. Jay
Gould is for Blaine, but holds to the opinion
that ''Mr. Gould will hardly contribute $780,
900 to the campaign fund to secure the ap-
pointment Of another judge to the Supreme
Bench" 1t won't be called by that name,
but Gould and his crowd can be depended on
to furnish Blaine with all the money he
can't get any where else, to any amount. 1t
was understood in 1880 that if Blaine was
nominated Gould and his partners would
fud him all the money he wanted. AS that
nomination turned out to be one without any
money behind, it, variety of sharp, hard bar
gains had to be made, but by hook and by
crook the money was raised, Indiana was
purchased and a variety of scandalous things
done, not all which are yet within the public
knowledge. Blaine's long practice in du-
2lictv will enable him to riot in corruption,
ard when he is pretty near the wall, turn
about and charge the rascality to some one

THE Rev. J. II. Ecob, who has the bad taste
to speak Of himself as 'Mr. Blaine's pastor"
says Of his layman: ellis mother was Cath
Ole, but if as little child he took his mothers
hand and walked with her to church, why
there is Protestant day Of judgment COM
ing which will, no doubt, purify as by ire
the touch of that mothers band" This
touch of blasphemy from ''Mr Blaine's
pastor'' may be good campaign document,
though it is very doubtful. If Mr.. Blaineis
not ashamed of his 'pastor" he is the I'M
worthy son of good mother. ''The Protes-
tant day of Judgment" the Rev. Mr.. Ecob,
speaks of so fippantly, will not purify as by
fire the tattoo marks of Mr.. Blaine's public
life. Any man who proclaims that he is
ashamed of his good, Christian mother, is a
man to be distrusted and stunned. There
can be no truth in him.

That was not the mistake the Governor
made He was in the hands Of a crowd OF

what politician deserves who turns his
back on true friends in the strife to gain
something at the hands of people who want
