meeting of the commission appointed to in
quire into the mental condition of John

NIajoIica and PhaIIaS.

The contest that is to take place to-mor-
row between Mr.. Nathan Straus' bay geld
ing. MajOlica, and Mr.. j. l. Cases stallion,
PhallaS, at Fleetwood park, n. Y, for
s., 500 side, is watched with 4
great deal of interest by horse
men. A day or two ago Murphy gave Ma
jOlica an easy mile with hood on in 2:34,
then brush of one mile with the brown
PAGER Honesty, driven by d. b. Harrington.
The horses travelled well together. Murphy

the half-mile pole III 1:15%, and
finishing half a length behind Hon
esty. with his mouth pulled wide open,
i'll 2:29%. MajOlica repeated in 2:23. max
ing the half mile in 1:1055 and beating
Honesty on jog. In speaking of his
horse Mr.. StTauS said: II never timed
Maiolica when ne was going at his best,
and in fact l don't think he was ever eX-
tended. Murphy says there is no telling
how fast MajOlica can go. for he has never
yet put him 10 top speed, having had no Oc-
caSiOn to do SO. L feel so confident of the
powers of my horse that when Mr.. Case
kindly offered to let me pay forfeit offered
to bet him 81, 500 more on the result, which
somewhat nonpluSsed him."
The Phallas party telegraphed to the Ma
jOlica party to know whether they should
bring Phallas on or whether Mr.. Straus
would pay forfeit ''Bring him on: Majol-
lea is ready to trot," was the reply. Mr.
Case says he would not have his horse
beaten for ten times the amount of the
stake, and if people think this match is not
''fOr blood they will alter their opinion on
Friday.

MIX n Brischievous Drink.

Sir Henry thompson
Most persons might naturally be aware
that the primary object of drink is to sat
isfy thirst. which means a craving for the
supply of water TO the tissueS-the only
fluid they demand and utilize when
the sensation in question is felt.
Water is a solvent of solids and is more
powerful TO this end when employed free
from admiXture with any other solid ma
terial. Ii may be favored, as in tea and
otherwise, without impairing its solvent
power, but when mixed with any concrete
matter. as i'm chocolate, thick cocoa or even
milk. its capacity for dissOlving-the very
quality for which it was demanded-is in
great part lost.
SO plentiful is nutriment in solid food
that the very last place where we should
seek that quality is the drink which accom-
panies the ordinary meal. Here at least we
might hope 10 be free from an eXhCrtatiOn
To nOurish ourselves, when DESTROYS only to
allay thirst or mOisten our solid morsels
with draught of fluid.
Not so; there are even some persons who
must wash down their ample slices of roast
beef with draughts of new milk-an I'M
wisely devised combination even for those
of active habit, but for men and women
whose lives are little occupied by exercise
it is one of the greatest dietary biunders
which can be perpetrated.
One would think it was generally known
that milk is peculiarly nutTitive fluid,
adapted for fast growing and fattening
young mammals admirable for such, for our
small children; also serviceable to those
whose muscular exertiOn is great, and,
when it agrees with the stomach. to those
who cannot take meat. For us who have
long ago achieved our full growth and can
thrive on solid fare it is altogether super
fiuous and mostly misehieyOus as a drink.

and install Democrat, the same necessity
existed for displacing the deputies and I'LL
ing their places with Democrats. But of
Ira states in the Union, Missouri is the
worst for trying such experiments as Col
lectOr HAsBRoOK has engaged in. Demo
Gratis who wear the mantles of JEFFERSON,
JACKSON and Tom BENTON trample under
foot such doctrines as the new collector Is
endeayoring to establish. The st. Louis
Republican, referring to the matter, says:
''The Democracy of Missouri, which year
ago would not have deemed such thing
possible even in New York, the home of
GEORGE WILLIAM CURTIS and of the per-
petual tenure-of-office idea, has seen its own
stronghold invaded, its penetralia violated
and its Democratic household gods trampled
under foot. 1t is not strange, then, in such
crisis. that it should arm in its own defense
and that a very whirlwind of Indignation
should sweep the state. Its not that Missouri
Democrats care for the petty patronage Col.
HAsBRooK has at his command, but for
the principle involved they do care, and for
that they stand as an unbroken phalanx.
The voice of protest is so loud that 1t can
scarcely fail to be heard beyond the bounds
of this state as far east as Washington.
The president will yet learn that man
claiming to represent him has, in
the very stronghold of Democracy,
struck an assassin's blow at once at
Democracy and at the Democratic admin
istration. And we believe when the pres
ident does hear the voice of his friends that
not all the efforts of Republican renegades
or of sycophants who claim to be Democrats
can induce him to turn deaf ear to them.
Had the Democrats of Missouri allowed
HAsBRooK to go unrebuked they would
have acknowledged that the Republicans,
who by force and fraud kept the Democrats
out of Office for quarter of a century, be-
came through their experience, through
their very force and fraud, so much better
fit for office than Democrats, that Demo-
Gratis can only become lit after period of
probation passed under their instruction"

IMPURE MEAT.

The discovery that a large number of dis
eased cattle are being slaughtered and
butchered in Chicago is well calculated TO
excite uneasineSs in that city. And what
happens in Chicago may happen elsewhere.
AT this season of the year, and particularly
during such hot weather as we are now ex-
periencing, too much care cannot be taken
in excluding bad meat from the markets
Chicago has meat inspectors, but the in
yestigations made of the stock yards by the
newspaper reporters developed the fact that
the inspectors were absent just when they
should have been on hand, and the oppOr-
tunity presented by their absence was en-
braced by the farmers and cattle shippers
to run a large number of infected
cattle into the market. These diseased
cattle were promptly butchered and sold
out to consumers. On one train were found
twenty diseased cattle, which should have
been killed and allowed To rot on the
prairie. 1t will do Chicago very little good
TO be cleansing her streets and byways as
a prccautiOn against cholera while her citi-
zens are feeding on the beef of diseased
cattle. This is a matter that should be
looked into by every city. While we have
heard of no complaints of this character in
St Paul, still our authorities will be
justified in making a thorough examination
and see to it that our people are not i'm
posed upon and the health of the city
jeopardized as ii has been i'm Chicago.
Cattle are more liable TO disease during
this excessive warm weather than Mt
other times, and consequently extraordinary
care should be taken to protect ourselves.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Globes Position Well Understoo,

Globes Position Well Understood.
To the Editor of the Globe:
One w. w. Williams of Albert Lea,
Minn., seems to be greatly worried about
the position of the GLOBE with regard to
the present administration, and also about
the position of the present administration
With regard 10 turning the raScalS out"
III would seem that to every intelligent
reader there could be no doubt concerning
the position of the GLOBE on questions of
public interest. The GLOBE is an impartial
monitor of the actions of the administration
without regard to the politics of the admin
iStratiOn- If Mr.. Williams would define
his position it would be easier for s.peOple
of ordinary intelligence" to understand
why he Is so much concerned about the
course OF the GLOBE and of the Democratic
party.
His SOlicitude for the Republican office
holders would indicate that he is a Repub-
lean. His fOrebOdings of some missteps
to be made by the Democratic party would
Indicate that he has the welfare of that
party very much at heart.
His threats of what the independent party
will do with the Democrats in 1888 in GER
tain events, tend to show that he is a Mug
wump. If he is a Republican, why not
give that shattered party the benefit of his
counsel? If he is 4 Democrat, why speak
of that party as your party" in his letter
to you? If he is a Mugwump, why trouble
himself so much concerning the mistakes
of the other two parties?
We are forced to the conclusion that Mr.
Williams does not as yet know where he
stands, and that he writes more to see him
self in print than for any other purpose.
He is evidently an embryo statesman, but
before he assumes to dictate course to a
political party he should learn not to ask so
many simple questions. Let him curb his
Impotence yet little while and those mat
tiers that are now so dark to him will be
made clear. Respectfully,

A SENSEIFSs SCARE.

In its vigorous article demanding a re-
peal of the BLAND silver act the New York
Herald speaks the truth when it says the
country has been taken somewhat by sur
prise in the amount which has been coined
under the act. But the Herald gives pub
licity TO more important fact when il
states that the New York banks averted
financial disaster few days ago when they
came forward to aid the treasury by offer
ing to lend $40, 900, 600 in gold i'm exchange
for the same amount in silver. The only
danger of continued silver coinage is i'm the
power of the banks 10 accumulate the gold
and by holding it 10 precipitate a crash at
any time. But the check upon this power
of the banks is the fact that in producing
crash they are liable to bring bank
ruptcy to themselves. The people will find
that so long as the banks are in terror of a
catastrophe just so long will the country be
safe from any evil effect of silver coinage.
Ii is time that the BLAND law should be
amended so that a silver dollar will be
equal in value TO a gold dollar. When this
is done there will be no trouble with the
silver. As long as a silver dollar is as good
as gold dollar il will make very little diff
ference whether custom receipts come ipto
the treasury in the shape of gold or silver;
nor will il make any difference whether in
terest on the public debt be paid in gold or
silver The Herald says, tuthfully enough,
that what is wanted sis plenty of conf
dence, which can only come from the exclu-

INDIGNANT DEMOCRATS.

The Missouri Democrats are i'm whirl-
wind of excitement and Indignation because
the new collector Of the Western district of
that state has refused TO accept the resigna-
tons rendered him by his force of Republic
can deputies, and has reappointed them all,
to the number of over sixty. This is done,
too, in face Of the fact that there are several
thousand loyal, active Democrats i'm the
district who are willing and anxious to fill
the places. The result is that all the
Democrats of the state are in warpaint, and
they not only propose to scalp the recreant
collector, but they are hunting for the man
who secured his appointment. 1t is queer
piece of business on the part of the col
isctor. If the subordinate force is 10
be kept in office the old collector
should also have been retained. If it was
necessary to displace Republican collector

THE Chicago Evening News is badly out of
called at St Paul. IL is very nervous lest
something be done TO discriminate against
the Hennepin canal In its anger the News
says: ut is high time for the people OF this
republic TO understand that the Hennepin
canal is not TO be tackled nor tagged on 10 any
put before congress. The citizens of Illinois,
who recognize ard are proud of this grand
natural waterway, decline TO lend their ap-
prevail TO any scheme which would seem 10
presuppose that the Hennepin canal is a trib-
utary TO the Mississippi river. The plain
truth is that the Mississippi river is tributary
10 the Hennepin canal, and any discrimination
IN favor of the river and against the canal
would simply be the sheerest kind OF folly
Our irate Chicago contemporary would do well
TO remember that the Mississippi river was
made by the Almighty long before the Henne-
cago. The movers of the river convention
have no feeling of hostility to the Hennepin
canal or to- Chicago, but they have an interest
IN improving river which nature designed
should command a trade as far north as per-
petual snow, and as far south as perpetual
howers- We know that Chicago is jealous OF
ST. Paul's growing influence as a commercial
city, but our friends down by the lake should
rice above petty feeling of jealous rivalry
when considering question of great national
import.
