If she puts out poor polluted palm,
But lay thy hand in his on bridal day,
And swear to cling to him

Gov A1IES, CANVASS.

Although Mayor AMEs has been in the
canvass but little more than week. there
< one thing in connection with his canvass
that is astonishing to both foe and friend.
It is the amount of enthusiasm which he
awakens wherever he goes. There has
never been a time within the recollection
of the Oldest Minnesota settler when
- candidate aroused so much enthusiasm
among the masses Of the people as DOC
A,rFS is doing in this canvass. Wherever
he has an appointment to speak the people
flock in crowds, coming from near and Tar,
to hear and see Minnesota's great Com
uoner. Men who have never before been
known to attend political meetings, or to
take any interest in politics, are' there
throwing I'D their hats and yelling as Justify
AZ the loudest of them for the peoples
tribune. 1t is a tidal wave of enthusiasm
wherever AMEs goes. affOrding encourage
ment to his friends and dumfOunding his
enemies. The machine bosses stand ap-
paled in the face of these popular demon
STATIONS. and are utterly at a loss to know
what processes to employ in checking it,
They fail to understand why it is that one
man. without anything like a machine Or
ganizatiOn at his back and absolutely without
one dollar at his command, can go outin
state canvass and produce such marvellous
results. With all of their money and ma
chine methods at hand. and their grand
army of stump speakers in the field, the
bosses are completely overwhelmed by
the power of this young DAVID Of De
mocracy, who has gone into the con-
test against the ring giants with no
other artillery than the sling Of honest
truth and the prayers and benedictions OF
the waiting Israel, who desire to be released
from the thraldom of ring rule. In the
desperation of their rage AMEs' political
opponents have opened the flood gates of
filth and are pouring streams of calumny
upon him. But the more dirt they shower
upon him the more closely do the people
gather around their champion to uphold
him in his great fight against boss rule.
The more he is villifed the higher rises the
pitch of popular enthusiasm. The abuse
of the ring bosses and the ring organs is ac-
cepted by the people as evidence of Mayor
AMEs' fitness for the Office Of governor.
The people want man in the gubernatorial
chair who is in bad odor with the monopo-

ANOTHER CONVERT.

Mr.. FRANK n. PETERSON, the prom
inent merchant of ChisagO county, and who
was mentioned for secretary Of state prior
to the late Republican convention, is an
other Republican who has independence
enough to refuse obedience to the arrogant
dictatlon of the Republican ringsters. With
commemorate acuteneSS he observes that the
pretended devotion of FLETCHER, PILLS
BURY and that ilk to the principles
of Republcanism is all moonshine, and
that their sole object is to maintain the
close corporation they have established for
their personal benefit within the party.
The spirit Of independence which led Mr..
PETERSON and so many of his brother
Scandinavians to throw off the yoke of
tyranny, and to seek new homes
in the land of liberty is still
strong enough within their breasts
to prevent their acceptance of the servie
part to which the ringSters would afford
them. Mr.. PETERSON clearly sees that in
supporting MCGILL he and his coUntrymen
would be merely playing into the hands of
the bosses, and for one he does not purpose
playing such a humiliating roll. With
equal perspicuity he sees that the only
means OF preventing this domination
of ring rule is in the defeat of
their tool, McGILL, and his ap-
peal to other Scandinavians to rise in
their might and overthrow the men who
would use them as puppets will meet with
an echoing response in the breasts of hun
dreds of voters. That none knows this
better than the leaders of the ring them
selves, their frantic but unavailing efforts
to counteract with vague promises, specious
sophistry, and even threats. the serious dis
affection, which is daily growing more seri-
Gus, well indicates.

RICHMOND, Va. Oct 11.-To-day was

by the the Knights of the local assemblies

mayors proclamation all the city offices
were closed in order to permit the employees
to take part in the days festivities Nearly
all the workshops, manufactures and other
establishments were closed. When che

had come to take part in the entertainment,
seeking introduction to him. Mr.. Pow
derby and the members Of the executive
board remained a little more than an hour
at the fair grounds, and then returned to
Ford's hotel to give the rest of the day to
the work awaiting their attention. During
the afternoon at the fair grounds there was
a bicycle race, trOtting race, mule race and
a tournament. This evening there was a
banquet, ball and exhibition of fire works.

man. to-day issued an address regarding the
color question which has arisen during the
convention here. He declares that while
social equality is one thing, labor
equality is another. and that an ar
ticle made by negro artisan is of equa
value with a similar one made by white
man, and should bring the IaboreI
the same pay. The African.
who performs most of the labor in the
South. must be educated up to a knowledge
of his rights and responsibilities, even if
for no other reason, as protection to his
white co-workers. The Farrell question is
treated in rather sarcastic vein, and the
talk about Virginia hospitality" is
answered by the assertion that the Knights
are in Richmond on no ones invitation, and
pay for all they get.

ALL SOR IT'S

Col. King is quite wise in not giving away
the Lyndale farm to elemOsynary institutions
before he gets it again. 1t is estimated by
competent judges of real estate that the
entire property belonging to Col. King at the
time the Remington trust was made would
amount to nearly S3.000,000 at this time.
Eighth ward property has advanced wonder
fully.
The comedian in the 'Black Crook" brought

When it was learned yesterday that Maj.
Allen had at last been ordered to begin the
survey of the Mississippi between the Twin
Cities. the board of trade felt its organization
had not been in vain.
Now for a race between Minneapolis and
st. Paul to see which shall get the bridge and
the consequent trade of the rich and fertile
territory of Scott and Dakota counties.
1t is perhaps just as well this city has such
man in Comptroller Holbrook's place and
such another in MIR. Ankeny's place in the
school board. 1t must be admitted that to
run the city government with care and regu-
larity, Democrats are really Indispensable
How singular that with all their blow and
buster, no Republican wants to bet on ma
jority for McGill. They say the state has
40 coo to 0OO0 Republican majority, but will
not risk their money on q paltry $1,000 for
the ring candidate.
A. C. Austin, the great fnancier of the
board of education, has beer great while
negotiating that loan of S30,000 and they
actually got it at per cent. Only S1,S00 for
the city to pay for $50, 900 for nine months.
when city bonds bring only little over per
cent, aud governments are at the same
rates! Mr.. Austin is the watchdog of the
treasury.
| The probabilities are that the general as
sembly knights of Labor will meet in this
city next year, and this is the reason why the
local knights are trying to secure funds for
| the erection of a hall. The ball at the Leland
rink is another move in this direction, and it
| is to be hoped that they will have a large
| turnout, as the society getting it up, the
| State Labor club, has very graciously decided
| to turn over all funds for that purpose. The
price of tickets has been set at 81.

flee.
To the Editor of the Globe.
The candidacy of A. Il. McGill for governor,
and his protested love and friendship for the
workingman, reminds me very forcibly of a
little incident that happened a number of
years ago. when McGill was simply an editor
aud not a candidate for office. and when he
considered poor man unworthy of notice.
The matter of which ] speak occurred at st.
Peter, McGii's old home. (He is now resi-
dent of st. Paul.) He was then editor of the
st. Peter Tribune, and it happened that the
Democrats had nominated for g. petty Office

be poor, but the fortune to be respected and
liked by everybody he come in contact with
The Republican candidate was a man

money, wore an immaculate white shirt, and
was otherwise very dudiSh sort of a gentle
man. The Democratic candidate usually
wore colored shirt, but as far as cleanliness
was concerned, was always as clean as Nc

that the Democrat WAS elected, and McGill

more respect for poor man now than be

counts just as much as a rich mans, and all
at once he has found it out.
Right here 1 would like to ask why McGill
claims to be a resident of st. Peter? He left
there with his family nearly twenty years
ago and has never returned. Two years age
he contracted with j. X. Moore for the st.
Peter Tribune, placed his son in possession,
but A. r. still lives in St. Paul.

Lententto BOycotfers.

ALBANY, n. Y, Oct. 11.-Gov. Hill ha!
committed to 100 days each the terms Of
Imprisonment of Michael Stroh and a mum,
Der of other boycotterS who were convicted
with him, and sentenced to terms of impris-
onment ranging from year and half to
three years and eight months. These were
the men who forced Brewer Thesis to pay
a large sum Of money to secure the removal
of boycott on his beer, on the ground that
the sum eXtorted had been expended il
prosecuting the boycott. Gov. Hall makes
it point that these men did not know they
were violating the law, as such construction
of their acts had never been laid down by
the courts; that they did not demand money
secretly or for their own use; that
the money was actually expended in
the boycott. and when collected was re-
turned to the union, which advanced it.
The application of the law having been
established and the governor having assur-
ances, both from the prisoners and the from
the Central Labor union, that they will here
after implicitly obey it and refrain from
asking damages for the expense of prose-
cutting boycotts the ends of justice have been
attained; hence the communion which he
gra nts, STIMULATING distinctly that future
vio!aters of the statute may expect no Glenn
ency from him. The terms of the prison
ers expire to-day under the act of commu.

A CHANGE NEEDED.

The discovery made by the third auditor
of the treasury of fraudulent transactions
in connection with the war claims of the
state of Indiana against the national gov
eminent is probably only one instance of
numerous frauds that were practiced during
the era of corruption that reigned under
some of the Republican administrations.
On the face of them the treasury books
looked all right when they were turned
over to the Democratic administration.
The columns were all footed up and
balances struck, which gave the appearance
of proper accounting. But in instances
where it has been possible to get at the
facts connected with the several items which
went into the account, and examination
was made, more or less crOUkedness has
been revealed. The case of the Indiana
claim is a fair illustration of how the frauds
were perpetrated. Auditor WILLIAMS
says that at one time it was the custom of
the state officials having these accounts in
charge to file duplicate vouchers,
one in the second auditors Office.
and one in the Office of the
third auditor. In large majority of the
claims it appears that the agent would pre
sent to the third auditors Office the original
of the duplicate vouchers. which would be
settled. and then would afterwards present
the other voucher and it would be paid.
too, thus making double payments. How
far this system prevailed in other depart
ments is not known, and owing to the
lapse of time since many of them were paid
and the consequent inability of the depart
ments to trace them back, it will probably
never be known to what extent the ma
fional treasury has been robbed in this

THE STORE ORDER SYSTEM.

The Pennsylvania law which prohibited
mining and manufacturing companies from
paying the wages of their employees in
''store orders" has been declared unconsti-
tutional by the supreme court of that state.
The decision is based on the principle that
every American citizen is free to make his
own contracts and that legislation cannot
restrict him in this right NotwithStand-
ing the principle is sound enough. still it
cannot be denied that the store order syS-
TEN is grave abuse of which the work
ingmen have right to complain, and there
ought to be some way to abolish 1t. Opera
tors take advantage of the poverty OF the
employees to force them into these contracts.
A man out of employment and seeking
work is not in condition to hold out against
the harsh terms which are dictated to him
by the boss. His own empty stomach and
hungry wife and children at home leave
him no option in the matter. Access to an
open market should be as much OF con-
Stitutional right as the freedom to make
ones own contracts. A man who earns
wages ought to have the privilege of spend
ing his wages how and where it suits him
best. 1t is probable that any court in less
mOnOpoly-ridden state than Pennsylvania
would have taken this side of the case into
consideration when rendering its decision.

TO-DAY'S CON VENTION.

The Democratic county convention, which
is held to-day, is charged with RESPONSE
bic duty, that of keeping Ramsey county in
the Democratic column. Upon the char
acter of the nominations made to-day will
largely depend party success in this county.
Of the abundant good material in hand it
ought not to be difficult matter to con-
struct ticket that will give increased en-
thusiasm to the already enthusiastic can
vass that the Democratic party is conduct
ing. For some of the nominations there
has been active rivalry among contesting
candidates, but it is gratifying to observe
that it has for the most part been of that
generous character which will leave no
stings in the event of defeat. With a good
strong county ticket in the field. there is
no estimating what the Democratic major
ity in Ramsey county will be this fall. 1t
is certain to be up in the thousands, and il
ought to be in the tens of thousands. Let
