HOW IT Is DONE.

1t maybe of interest to those who are
seeking federal Office to know that the
president has become very skillful in dis
covering the character and qualifications OF
applicants for office through their papers,
and that he has come to rely a good deal
upon them as guide. 1t is said that he
does not like greasy disorderly papers that
look as if they had been passed about in
sloppy places, filled up with lead pencil
signatures, and then rolled up in a wad
Whenever the president opens an applica-
ton and it begins with the statement that
the petitioner bases his application for
office upon services rendered in the last
campaign, the paper is Immediately
dropped into the waste basket. After hav-
ing gone over all the applications, and the
president has formed his estimate of the
ability and character of the applicants there
from, he selects out few of those with
whom he has been most favorably i'm
pressed, and conveys to them an intima-
ton that it would be, gratifying to see them
in person. Mr.. CLEVELAND is easy and
informal in manner, and when the appli-
cants visit him they are encouraged to talk
freely. and so furnish the president, who is
a good judge of men, with an idea of their
knowledge, discretion and business ability.
In this way nearly all the important ap-
pointments are made.

DAKOTA,s WHEAT CROP.

During The recent dairymen's convention
at Moorhead the subject of Dakota's adapt
ability to dairy farming was the theme of
frequent discussion. And while some diff
ferences of opinion prevailed as to the wis
dom Of the people Of certain sections Of the
territory hurrying to embark in an industry
which might be attended with some draw
backs because of lack of running water,
the bulk of opinion was that the conditions
for successful dairying existed in the Red
River valley. But whatever opinions pre-
vailed as to dairy farming. there was no di-
vision of sentiment in reference to Dakota'S
capacity for wheat growing. And yet fif-
teen years ago government officials who
were detailed to make examination of the
territory reported that Dakota was unfit for
human habitation. They did not believe
it could sustain human population
because of the rigor of its climate,
the sterility of the soil, and the alkali in the
water. That was only fifteen years ago, and
vet. as an illustration of how little reliance
is sometimes to be placed in these gov
eminent reports, the agricultural bureau at
Washington estimates that the wheat crop
in Dakota for this year will reach 1000, Quo
bushels. A better idea of the amount of
Dakota's wheat production for this year can
be had by making calculation in figures
Allowing 400 bushels to the car it will take
a train OF Is, 900 railroad cars to haul this
wears crop. A train of IS, 600 cars would
reach a fraction over 500 miles in length
or from st. Paul to 100 miles beyond Chi
cago. When it is remembered that this is
calculation of the wheat product for one
year alone, i'll territory which fifteen years
ago was pronounced incapable of support
ing human life, and then remember that
but comparatively small proportion of the
available land of the territory has yet been
brought into cultivation we can begin to
comprehend the vastness of the agricultural
domain which lies to the west of us, and

Gen. Grants Condition.

MT. MCGREGoR, N. Y, June 27.-The
apprehensions of DR.. Douglas that Gen.
Grant might have to pay for his recent
rally have already been partly met. Friday
night the general had a wretched time.
Mucus accumulations began to gather after
midnight, and he was scarcely free from
coughing and unusual pain until daylight.
Dr.. Douglas relieved him for little while
by treatment administered at o'clock this
morning and again at 6 o'clock, but his
sleep was badly broken until after his
morning nourishment was served, which
queted him. He is much weaker than
yesterday, and too languid to care to leave
his room. No special alarm is felt by this set
back. The family think the sultry day an
important agent in depressing him, and are
not yet disposed to think reaction has set
in. II requested Gen. Grant to retire
earlier than usual this evening"" said DR..
Douglas at 8 o'clock tonight, land the
reason was that want him to grow into
the habit of rising earlier in the morning.
He readily assented. About o'clock he
was composed for the night. His throat
and head have been thoroughly cleared, and
he seemed comfortable at retiring. His
voice is clearer than usual and | think he
feels better than he did during the forenoon.
His pulse is increased to eighty tonight,
but l know of no reason why he should not
rest quite well tonight" This evening
there has been cool breeze in the noun
tain, and at O'Clock the temperature was

Is that the pencil of the artist is becoming
almost as essential feature of popular
journalism as the pen of the writer. The
GLOBE is fulfilling all the requirements OF
modern journalism. AS newspaper it will
ever be unsurpassed, its discussion of all
matters shall at all times be fair, truthful
and fearless, its home and family depart
ment shall make it welcome visitor to
every tireside and indispensable to every
household. In short, the GLOBE is and will
continue to be the great NEWSPAPER of
the Northwest. The great and rapid in
crease of its circulation is the best testi-
monial an appreciatiye public is giving to
its worth as an enterprising journal.

secnredaCity office.

The Minnesota & Northwestern road has
made arrangements to open city ticket
office at 1874 East Third street, in the Drake
block, where tickets will be put on sale to
all points on it's own and connecting lines. 1t
is understood that the company is making
arrangements to open scalping Office in a
splendid quarter. Though the scalping
office will not be run by an old hand at the
business, it is apodictical that he will be
appointed by the company, and that the
office will be virtually under its control.
This, of course, has no significance, as the
other railroad companies all have them, but
it goes to show that the Minnesota & North
western means business and is not going to
come in quietly, but means at the begin
ming to take the bull by the horns. The
city Office will be a handsome one, and
likely an imported agent will operate it.

THERE was never a sadder illustration of
the depth of depravity to which human ma
ture is capable of descending than two in
cidents related in our Geographic columns
this morning. One case is that of a twelve
year-old girl at Barnesvile S.C.,who killed an
infant by soaking the childin pot of con-
centrated I've in order to escape the duty OF
nursing it. The other is that of a member of
the Illinois legislature who inveigled a little
girl, who was serving as page in the legisla-
ure, into a committee room and, divesting
her of her clothing, attempted to commit a
criminal outrage upon her person. There is
no penalty known to the law severe enough
for the punishment of these two flends in
human shape. Burning at the stake is too
good for them.

THANKS, KIND FRIENDS.

The GLOBES well-known modesty has
prevented it hitherto from speaking of the
many compliments it is daily receiving from
every direction because of the enterprise it
is displaying in its efforts to furnish the
reading public, not only first-class news
paper, but, in all respects the highest style
of journal ever published in the Northwest.
But the overwhelming encomiums which
We're poured upon Us all day yesterday by
our city patrons in consideration of the two
page illustrated article on the real estate
business of this city, which appeared in
Yesterday mornings issue, calls from us an
expression Of thanks for the many kind
words our friends have spoken in our be-
half. In making these acknowledg-
nents the GLOBE desires to inform
its patrons that it not only intends
to keep the paper up to its present
standard, but it is our purpose to steadily
increase its excellence until no man, woman
or child in the whole of the great Northwest
can afford to be without it. We know the
kind of journalism the people like, and we
are going to crafty their taste, without re-
gard to labor or expense. The closer jour
nalisln gets to the hearts of the people the
more sociable itbecomes. The GLOBE does
not strut on stills. 1t walks afoot among
the folks and talks with them about things
they like to hear. In addition to its many
other attractive features, the GLOBES en-
terprise in furnishing daily pictorial illus
trations of menand things that are occupy
ing the public mind is commended by all of
its readers. The mass of the people want
to know something about the men of brains
and enterprise and business capacity who
have been the architects of the prosperity
of the community in which they live.
The interest of detailed biographical
sketch is greatly enhanced when the por-
trait of the individual accompanies it.

THE telegram, which states that the streets
in Dublin through which Earl SPENCER, the
retiring English governor of Ireland must
pass, are lined with soldiers to protect him
against harm from an incensed population,
tells the whole story of his rule in that IN
fortunate country. While the Irish people
doubtless feel relief to have the man who
has ruled them with mailed hand and rigor-
GUS arm removed, still it must be morti1ca-
ton to the English statesman, If he has any
sensitiveness of feeling, that he leaves no

rushed East to lenda helping hand to politics
he made such a fiasco that his most indiffer-

CAMP HUBBARD, Faribault, June 81
The routine work of the camp passed off in
very creditable shape to-day. The feature
of the day, however, was the sham battle,
which took place about 4 o'clock in the aft
ernoon. The battle grounds were located
near the rifle range about a mile south of
the camp, The engagement took place in
large pasture surrounded by knobs, on which
over 5000 people placed themselves to wit
ness the contest. The fort was occupied
by Sergt. Quinn of the United States battery
with one gun, backed by Companies A,
B, and II, with d thrown out
as skirmishers, all under the command of
Lieut.. Col Mead. The attacking party was
commanded by Col. Bobleter, and consisted
of the remainder of the battery under Maj.
Smith. and Companies c, E, F, G and K,
with Company l as skirmishers. At first
the front troops resisted the attack, but,
being the weaker side gave way and finally
surrendered. but not before mine had eX-
ploded (ired by the adjutant generaD under
the feet of the approaching party. The
movements in battle line were very well ex-

sides were few, though the ambulance corps
was on hand for duty and carried several
men off the field. Taking the fight as a
whole it was very well executed and was
much enjoyed by the spectators.

Vinayak Joshee has recently arrived in San
Francisco from Bombay. He was invited
to speak the other day at the meeting of the
teachers institute in the former city, and
was asked to state his views concerning
American women. He said his own idea
was that ignorant wives were much pref
erable to educated ones, as they made
much better slaves-that is, they performed
their duties with greater contentment and
reliability, and were not continually oppos-
inc their own views to those of their hus-
bands. thus causing dissension. He
