guardian of the public morals, it stands
ready to yield all the aid within its power
to mcovering delinquencies in the acts
of public officers and bringing them to
justice.
1t should be noticed also that the Pioneer
Press has failed to adduce a scintilla of evil
dence in support of the reckless charges it
has made against the city officials, and
when asked to give the sources of its infor-
nation is as dumb as an oyster. Even
when the business men of the city assem-
bled in meeting at the invitation of the
manager of that journal, and they send out
a committee to ask his attendance at his
own meeting, and furnish them with the
sources of his information for making such
bold charges against prominent officials, the
manager lodges the committee, and makes
his own meeting conspicuous by his alb
sence. We merely call the attention of the
public to the difference in the attitude of
the two Hummelshine, GLOBE and the PiO-
neer Press-in this respect, so that the peO-
pie can Judge for themselves which is right
and which is wrong.

w TCH THEM

Democrats will be on the lookout for Re
publican repeaters to-day. While all efforts
have been made to have fair registration
of voters there is rumor that gang of
Minneapolis repeaterS have been brought
here for the purpose of swelling the vote of
the syndicate ticket. This may not be true,
but in view of the fact that Minneapolis has
an axe to grind in our election in that Re
publican victory in st. Paul would give
Minneapolis decided advantage of this
city, it is worth the while of ST. Paul peo-
pie to keep sharp lookout and closely
scrutinize the poll lists. A ring that
doesn't hesitate to defame honest men and
to rob the city of its credit and good name
would not be overscrupulous in slipping in
a fraudulent vote wherever the opportunity
presented. AT all events, they will bear
watching.

ST. PAUL,s ADVANTAGE.

A Republican business man said to the
GLOBE yesterday morning:
For twenty years Minneapolis has stood
in with the administration at Washington,
which has been Republican. ST. Paul has
been all these years on the other side, politi-
cally. This Injured largely to the benefit of
Minneapolis. Now ST. Paul is in line, polit-
ically, with the administration and the ma
jOrity OF congress. Minneapolis is antagoniS-
TIC 1t would be short-sighted thing in St.
Paul, now that she has the advantage of
Minneapolis, to throw it away"
Looking at it in a practical business light
there is an argument in this presentation by
our Republican friend of the most import
ant issue involved in to-day's election that
must carry conviction to the mind of every
voter who has the interests of this city
truly at heart. In the generous rivalry
which has heretofore existed between the
two cities it has been apparent tn at Mime
apolis has always enjoyed an advantage
over St. Paul in being in political line with
the administration at Washington. Now
that the national administration has been
reversed and ST. Paul as Democratic city
stands in line with the administration,
would it not be folly for our people to
throw away the advantage which the change
in the politics of the nation has brought to
us? If at any time in its history it was i'm
portant that St. Paul should be Demo-
cratic, now, of all other times, it is
the most. important that it should
Iemain So This fact must inn
press itself upon the mind of every think
ing man. 1t is not matter OF surprise
that Minneapolis money has been poured in
very literally to the Republican campaign
fund in this canvass to aid in making st.
Paul Republican city. II such thing
could be brought about Minneapolis would
be the gamer and ST. Paul the loser. In
fact the whole Republican campaign has
been run by little syndicate OF st. Paul
bankers and spectators aided by Mime
apolis syndicate The voters of st. Paul
have an opportunity to-day to bury these
rings out of sight forever, and preserve to
our city the vantage ground which it now
occupies. This can only be done by voting
for RICE and the entire Democratic ticket,
and defeating MERRIAM and his syndicate
subOrdinateS.

TOO MUCH BUSINESS.

The business mems meeting which the
Pioneer Press called at the chamber of com
merce on yesterday turned out to be a big
ger and more important affair than the
caller had anticipated. In fact the man
who called the meeting found it to be a real
italian wasp On his hands, the business part
being the part he didn't want. With the
hypocritical can't and assumed piety of the
treacherous apostle who always wanted TO
carry the bag, the Pioneer Press has been
hammering away for long time about
what the business men of the city ought To
do and what kinds of reform the business
men ought to inaugurate in the manage
ment of the city government. So that when
that paper announced with great flourish
OF trumpets that meeting of the business
men OF the city would meet at the chamber
Of commerce on Monday morning the busi-
ness men of the city concluded that thew
would turn out. And after they got there
they concluded they would let the Pioneer
Press and its little syndicate gang under
stand that whatever else the city may want
it did not want the services of the
ring bosses at this particular time, nor did
they especially admire the style adopted bv
the syndicate gang in promulgating false
hoods against honest officials of the city for
the purpose Of lowering the price of civ
bonds in order that the syndicate pool could
make good big speculation on the bonds.
The way that the business men commune
Gated their opinions seems to have had
paralyzing effect on the managers of the
Pioneer Press. After calling the meeting.
not one of them put in an appearance to
help it along. When committee was an

plain the object of the meeting which he

LOOK OUT FOR BooMERANGs.

Voters of st. Paul, look out for boomer
angs in this mornings issue of the Pioneer
Press. That journal has patent on BOOM
erangs and shoots them off with wonderful
facility. The Illustration of its genius in
this direction on last Sunday will prepare
the public for anything in the nature of
boomerang. This is election day, and, as
no opportunity will occur to prick the bub-
bles of that boomeranging journal until
after the polls are closed, there is nothing
within the possible range of boomerangs
that may not be expected in to-day's issue.
The Young an-Afraid-of-H fills Record who
is the Republican candidate for mayor sits
up of nights with the Pioneer Press manu-
featuring boomerangs and helping to fire
them off in order to drown the noise which
the people are making about the syndicate
ring of which he is the prominent figure.
If there is no boomerang in the Pioneer
Press this morning it will be because the
manager has not recovered from the illness
produced by the excitement incidental to
his busineSs-refom meeting on yesterday.
Still, look out for boomerangs

WORTHY OF REMEMBRANCE.

Voters of st. Paul, when you cast your
ballots to-day, it is worthy of remembrance
that during the years of Democratic admin
istration in this city our people have seen
the city credit rise from the point where its
s per cent. bonds only sold for 80 cents on
the dollar to the point where it now stands,
when its per cent. bonds bring over 81
per cent premium. And this has been
done in opposition to the efforts of syndi-
cate to depreeiate the value Of these bonds
in order that they might purchase them at
low figures, and to accomplish this resort to
all sorts of defamation against our officials
and the fair name Of the city. This same
syndicate is now backing MERRIAM and the
Republican ticket. 1t is also we'll to re-
member that the credit of st. Paul has been
elevated to plane equal to that of the
government of the United States, largely
through the efforts, capacity and sterling in
tegrity of the honest, straightforward and
-intimidated JOHN w. ROCHE. All
these things are worthy of remembrance.
Vote for RICE, ROCHE and the entire DEM
ocratic ticket, and thus smash the ring that
is seeking to destroy the credit of st. Paul.

A DISGUISED PUBLIC.

Public opinion was becoming too well ac-
quainted with the methods of Mr.. MERRIAM,
his street railway record, his board Of edu-
cation record, his Robert street bridge rec
ord, etc., and his organ, the Pioneer Press,
finding defense impossible, became desper-
ate to the verge of lunacy and sought to
divert attention from the matters at issue by
the expedient of roorback. That lack Of
political sagacityi that has always marked
its acts was as usual manifest in this last
bit of mendacity, and the roorback has be-
come a boomerang.
The head of the Democratic ticket being
unassailable it resorted with much circum-

membered that he had to see man in an
other part of the town, and consequently
failed to show up. But the meeting went
on all the same, and the proceedings are
published in full in this mornings GLOBE.
1t is safe to say, however, that it will be a
long time in the future before the Pioneer
Press calls another business meeting OF the
citizens of st. Paul. Business Is business,
but there was too much business in yester-
days meeting for the business manager of
the syndicate organ.

slowly and with care in making changes. the

demands and even the just claims of partisans
as of secondary Importance.

MIR. ROCKIES BUSINESS CAPACITY

MIR. ROCKIES BUSINESS CAPACITY
From the Pioneer Press, Sept, II, 1884.
st. Paul again owes Surprisingly low tax
levy to the thrift, vigilance and business ca
pacity of Comptroller ROCHE. His scheme
for the levy of 1884 was presented to the
council last night and promptly accepted.
The new assessment of SOL, 600, 900 of
course made some reduction in the rate of
levy inevitable, but it is not without some
skill and effort that it has been cut down to
the singularly low figure of 16 mills
for all purposes. The city levy is III
mills, the county and state demanding the
rest. There are few cities of the size of st.
Paul, and in its progressive condition, which
can show so low rate Of taxation.
