TIE IRATE SENATE.

Judging from the manner In which the
Republican newspapers are now fllnglng
dirt at Mr.. CLEVELAND one would sup
pose they are mad at something. Ii Is evil
dent that the presidents message hit the
Republican senate square between the eyes
and gave it such staggering blow that 1t
will not recover sufficiently during the pres
ent session TO ask the president for any
more papers relative to removals. Mr..
EDMUNDs didn't know that Mr.. CLEVE-
LAND was such good hitter or
he would never have knocked the
chip from the presidents shoulder.
1t is singular that it never occurred
to the senate judiciary committee that the
presidents private correspondence Is no
more public property than the correspond
ence of any other gentleman. But ii didn't
and here they have been banging away at
him for weeks and months. issuing Ahe most
ridiculous manifestoas in the shape OF eau
Gus resolutions and committee reports. Ana
now, when Mr.. CLEVELAND tells them
that he prefers to keep his private papers in
his own possession, rather than have med
dlesome set of old politicians rummaging
among them, they get as mad as March
hare, and fall to calling him hard names.
They call him ''Old sore head" because
he doesn't think just as they want him To
think. They taunt him with affecting
CEsARIsM because he fails TO bow at the
feet of the senate. They call him dictator
and usurper because he carries the key to his
private desk in his own pocket, instead of
turning il over TO Mr.. EDMUNDs. In the
meantime the president is preserving his
temper remarkably well. lie is just as cool
as a cucumber, and doesn't seem TO care
what they call him so long as he is not
called q fool. And he can very well
afford TO keep level head. The
president knows that he has the right side
of the controversy and the people will sus-
tain his position. He knows there is moth
ing in the rumOr that the Democratic SEN
ators are divided in opinion as to the cor
rectness of his position. They stand by
him in solid column. They wouldn't be
Democrats if they didn't Whatever divi-
sion exists is in the Republican ranks. a
number of Republican senators dissent
from the radicaliSm of EDMUNDs and his
judiciary committee. The presidents argu-
ment in defense of his personal and official
rights is SO clear that it appeals with force to
every impartial mind, no matter whether
the person appealed to be Democrat or a
Republican. Mr.. CLEVELAND makes no
pretension TO being a scholarly man or a
learned lawyer. But like ABRAHAM LIN
COLIN he is the genius of common sense,
and when he submits proposition to the
people it carries more weight with it than
all the hair-splitting technicalites that Mr..
EDMUNDs can devise from now until the
crack of doom. The best thing that Mr..
EDMUNDs can do under the circumstances
is to apologize to the president for having
stepped on the tail of his coat, and bottle
his wrath for some more useful purpose.

THE GLORE,s RELIABILITY

1t is always so. The GLOBE can be re-
lied on in every emergency. AS an evidence
of this the intelligent body of farmers who
have been holding an institute at LIE Sueur
read and adopted the full and accurate re-
port of their proceedings published in the
GLOBE as their journal. They knew very
well that no mortal secretary could
make out more accurate journal than the
GLOBES report, and without any hesitation
it was adopted. In appreciation of this
compliment the GLOBE can assure its
farmer friends that their confidence is not
misplaced aud will never be abused. And
yet the GLOBE is nobody's organ.

THE CONVICT LABOR QUESTION.
Co.loir, nl.rirnd pnr,l,linn,, ,,,Iitinin,,.,

THE CONVICT LABOR QUESTION.
Certain ill-advised Republican politicians
are attempting to make political capital
over the large appropriation asked for by
New York prison officials to bridge over the
difference between the expenditures and in
come of the penitentiaries. Their argument
is, in effect, one in favor of the employment
OF convict labor. They refer with woald-be
sarcasm to the policy which permits the re-
tention of hundreds of able-bodied
men in comparative idleness when scores
of contractors would be glad to employ
their services and thus enable the state to
derive revenue otherwise lost. These false
protestations of economy and the late re-
gard for the states interests will deceive
no one. In attempting to arraign the DEM
ocratic officials the accusers have been
hoist with their own petard. The people,
composed i'm New York. as elsewhere.
largely of those who earn their daily bread
by the sweat of the brow, will not
soon forget that the position as
sumed by the Republicans virtually
favors the exclusion of free, honest and
competent labor in favor of the cheap but
Indifferent services of convicts. The
people, too, will not be slow to declare,
when an opportunity arises. their apprecia-
ton of the mistaken idea. There is not a
workman in New York state who, heavy
as he may at times find the burden of his
taxes. would not be willing to see them in a
measure increased, if necessary, in order
to pay the expense of prison main
tenance, rather than to be re-
quired to pay nothing for such pur-
poses because the convicts themselves sup
ported the prisoners by the letting out of their
labor. The competition of such labor is i'm
every respect wrong. 1t is gratifying to
see that many states have already provided
against it, and its complete exclusion is
doubtless but question of time. In the
meanwhile, if the New York Republicans
attempt to foisU it upon the people of that
state, both Republican and Democratic
workmen will probably enter very effec-
tual protest when the next election comes
| around.

wholesale Discharge of knights.

SPRINGFIELD, o., March 3.-There is
much excitement here caused by the action
of the East Street Champion reaper works
last night. 1t was sudden and wholesale
discharge of several hundred employees
known to belong to Knights OF Labor or
other trades union organizations. Mr..
Whitley, president of the company, says:
We were compelled to take this course in
the cause of human liberty. So far as we
have observed the operation of this organIza-
ton in other cities, IL has been one of terror,
intimidation and violence. and it seems 10 be
a question whether a factory shall have all or
none of its employees members OF an Organi-
cation. weprefer TO have all our men indie
pendent of all organizations, and believe
such course will be for the good of the COM
munity.
They are advertising for men to FL the
places OF the discharged workmen. There
were about 500 men discharged
and 500 more refused TO go to work this
morning Meetings have been held TO dis
cuss the situation. but no line of action has
been adopted. There is no indication of
violence.

THE BLAINE SILENCE.

Mr.. BLAINE is too busy advertising his
book just now to talk politics. Mr.. Ed
MUNDs, Mr.. SHERMAN, Gen. LOGAN and
the balance of the presidential boys would
do well to make a note of this. Whenever
Mr.. BLAINE gets too busy to talk politics
the next thing to happen is that somebody's
feet are tripped from under him. 1t looks
now as IL it Is Mr.. EDMUNDs who stands
in slippery places. When Mr.. BLAINE
wants to get rid of political rival he is very
skillful in his movements to accomplish it.
There is sort of a bland, childlike way
about Mr.. BLAINE that robs him of the

THE PRICES.

Money was easier and government bonds
were dull and steady yesterday. In railroad
bonds there was somewhat increased activity.
Prices in most cases showed further adj
vances. About 2 o'clock the market was de-
cidedly quiet but in the last hour there was
renewed activity and some strength, which
carried quotations somewhat above the low
est of the day, and at last the market closed
strong. Western Union was noticeably weak
on rumors tending to show that the next div
idend will be reduced to per cent. Wheat was
quite strong nearly all day at Chicago, and
stood till nearly the close at an advance over
the close the night before and the opening of
yesterday. 1t weakened, however. during the
closing hour and fell Off. Pork active and

ADDITIONAL ST. PAUL NEWS
One of the Oldest Buildings in the
City Torn Down.


City Tern Down.
Yesterday the last of one of the old land
marks of st. Paul was pulled down and
carted away This structure was the little,
old two-story frame that stood on the
northwest corner of Jackson street and the
levee. Every one who has passed down
Jackson street to the levee has probably
noticed the demure-loOking, little building
which for many years has been used as a
sort of storehouse. During the last year or
two the lower part of it was used
for the Bethel services under the
management and superintendent of Rob-
ert Smith. Here, for some time, on Sun
day afternoon, could be heard the singing
of religious songs, and the sOnorous sounds
of the Bethel leaders voice. which seems
to indicate that the little old building was
aware that its last days were approaching,
and that it was best to make some prepare
ton for the journey. 1t is gone, and moth
ing is now left on the spot where it stood,
except a hundred or more coils of barbed
wire which were stored in the building.
This little structure was erected in 1S47,
nearly forty years ago. 1t was used as q
warehouse, and it was in this little building
that all the goods for the upper country
were stored. 1t was occupied by William
Constance, VINO kept the establishment,
and everything that went into the North
west had to pass through his hands. He
occupied it from 1851 to 1862. All the
time up to 1858 the water in the river ran
within six feet of this little frame structure.
In the year 1858 stone building was
erected Just west Of the frame of about the
same size. The dirt that was taken out TO
make q cellar was put in to help as much as
possible to build the levee, and thus it was
that the narrow passage or six feet in front
of the little frame was widened out so that
teams could drive along in front and up
Second street 1t was in this little structure
that Mr.. Charles Thompson opened the first
ticket office in st. Paul
