morning caused by the firing of VIM. Ban
holzer's small stable, $50 North Fort street,
occupied by Theo Jams, from unknown

surrounded. The stable was burned to the
ground. Loss ON building 500 and unin-
sured; on contents S26 and insured.
The adjoining two-story hotel of Banholzer
and kept by Jams was scorched to the tune of
$50, and was insured. A small stable of
James Lick, on West Tenth street, was
burned at a loss on building of 5000, being
insured for the full amount the loss on con-
tents being so, and uninsured. The house

declares he will not support Blaine and Lo-
gan, and his st. Louis paper, the Westliche
Post refuses to support the ticket. Next to
the Chicago Stats Zeitaag, this paper stands

consider it very weak, for it makes doubtful
states. 1t will certainly lose New York, and
and makes Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Connecticut and New Jersey doubtful Repub-
lican states; with the strength of the German
vote it may carry Ohio; but with the defec-
ton of the German vote the ticket may be de-
feated in that state. l also put Indiana
among the doubtful states. The Germans
are distrustful OF Blaine's foreign policy. As
the Grmans say, Blaine fits the Republi-
can party like the fist in the eye With
Cleveland and Morrison on the Democratic
ticket it has every probability Of success 1t
would be a strong ticket with the Germans
1t is well known fact that in Ohio, In
diana and Illinois the Germans hold the
balance of power. They are all well posted
on the fact that Blaine aided in enacting
and has always upheld the Maine pro-
hibitory liquor law, which has served as
model for all prohibitory legislation enacted
or attempted elsewhere in these later years,
nor is it forgotten that Blaine made bitter
and uncalled for attack on the German peo-
pie, though their leading representative, Carl
Shurz in a debate in the United States SEN
ate.
Sufficient to say, that wise action on the
part of the convention at Chicago this week
will give to the Democracy bright and bright

Especial Telegram to the Globe.


MILBANK, D. T. July 9.-The jobbers ar
rived at Milbank at 9:20 p. m. with the in
tention of putting up for the night. Rock
cts, Roman candles and fireworks heralded
our approach as we marched III procession to
the hotel for for supper. After supper, the
Union, headed by the band, pro-
ceeded to Perkins hall where
j. W. Bell, attorney, delivered most elo-
quent address of welcome. President Finch
responded happily by a few well chosen re-
marks, introducing the popular speaker, Gen.
j. Fl. Baker, who made long and interest
ing practical speech, which was applauded to
the echo. This gentleman was followed
by Mr.. D. w. Diggs in a
rousing speech on behalf of
Dakota and its fair prospects. After the
closing speech G. w. Baird rendered the
dead shot march, and the Jobbers and citi
zepS dispersed to bed.

Things That Tell.

Enterprise and foresight, united with ap-
plication, are winning qualifications for sue
cess in business, as has been fairly illus
trated by Mr.. John Matheis, the proprietor of
the Oldest and best known carpet house of st.
Paul. AS he has personal charge of his large
business, he hadn't time to go out with the
''jolly jobbers'' and visit his customers in
the West, but he's putting in his time at
home in a way all his customers will
appreciate. He is extending his Third street
store towards the Opera house, and in the
new part will add the finest lace room in the
country. He is also preparing to open his
Seventh street branch house in Knauft's new
block, where he has leased a double store,
which will be as finely stocked as his prin-
cipal carpet house, and that's saying enough.
Matheis carries always a fine stock, and
besides his own constant attendance, has
the aid of q well trained
corps of practical assistants, so that
he can easily run two houses and rnn both
well. He is to be congratulated on his sue
cess and is certainly one of the foremost of
the merchants who have built up the large
trade and commerce Of st. Paul.

THE nELrN0HENT r4xI1s


The publication of the delinquent tax list
for this county has been so blunderingly per-
formed this year that no legal sales can be
made under it. This is greatly to be regret
ted, as the list is a very large one-nearly
double that of last near. Attention need be
called to but one of the many errors, as this
one, by decision of the supreme court,
vitiates the whole list. That is where the
dollars and cents in the tax column is. separ-
ated by space only instead of a decimal
point or perpendicular line as required.
This mode of setting saves work for the
printer but is death to the validity of the
publication. This point was fully settled in
the case of Tidd as. Riaes, 26 Him., 201,
where the space was held to be insufficient
to express the amount of judgment In the
above case the publication was declared in
valid because there was SlNo line or decimal
mark separating the tgo right hand figures IN
the column from the rest. as is usually the case.'
This blunder is all the more exasperating
from the fact that the attention of county
auditors was called to this special case in
circular from the state auditor issued only
few days ago, in which he cautions them to
guard against these errors in printing. Au-
ditor McCardy must have received a copy of
this circular and wilfully disobeyed its in
structions, but then, who ever knew our
brilliant county auditor to receive instruc-
tons or advice from any one. He is law
unto himself and the State Auditors advice,
backed as it was by the opinions of the At
torney General and the decision of the Su-
preme Court was all lost on him. The tax
payers of Ramsey county, who pay their taxes,
will have to suffer all the same, as the large
amount of taxes remaining unpaid will re-
main so, just because no legal sale can be
made under this jurisdiction.

ATTENTION is again called to the long and
lonely journey taken by Chairman Hender-
son to Augusta, to notify Blaine of his nom
nation Officially" and to the candor with
which Mr.. Henderson expresses his disap-
pointment at the lack of enthusiasm for
Blaine in the New England states. This is
in confederation of the state of affairs found
by Mr. j. j. Hill on his recent visit in the
east. The boosted magnetism of the bold
knight does not seem to enthuse the old
Puritans, or the people of the East generally
to any appreciable extent.

CURRENT COMMENT.

THERE are in the United States more alleged
colleges than in all the rest of the world com
bined, and these institutions are in the hubit of
comforting honorary degrees upon gentlemen for
all sorts of reasons. There are plenty of
colleges" that are not of respectable average
high standard. There is no uniform
standard of scholarship, and so far as the degrees
are concerned scholarship does not appear to be
an element to any considertbe extent. The
degrees are lavished upon men, because they are
politicians, because they hold office, or have
money and may make donation, and for almost
every reason under the sun, except learning.
In Massachusetts one in every eleven of the
Congregational clergy is doctor of Divinity"
in the Presbyterian denomination out of some
five thousand clergyman about one in eight has
been made SD. d. Among the Episcopal ans the
rate is one in six. In one year $50 Doctors of
Divinity were created and IS Doctors of Laws,
and in two years 42S honorary degrees were con-
ferred. The whole affair is ridiculous, and
brings the educational establishments into con-
tempt.
