DISCUSSING RUTTERINE.
An Advocate of Spurious ButteI
from Chicago.


from Chicago.
Some days ago communication was re-
ceived by the board of trade of st. Paul
from Chicago, urging the passage of me-
mortal that the bill now before congress.
levying tax of 10 cents per pound on
oleomargarine and butterine, be defeated.
Chicago, Cincinnati, Milwaukee and some
other cities have passed similar resolutions.
After the call of the board yesterday morn
ing. the consideration of this communica-
ton was taken up. P. 81. Kelly was pres
ent. accompanied by young gentleman.
who was said to be in the employ of Ar
mour & Co. of Chicago, named Oliver. and
who was decided champion of butterine
and oleomargariDe. He talked a
good deal and showed an extensive
knowledge of the subject. 1t is claimed
by the butterine men that that substitute
for pure butter does not interfere with the
choice grades of creamery butter, but that
it increases the value of the best grades,
and that it is intended only to take the
place of very poor butter Mr. Kelly said
he would not know the difference between
butter and butterine and had never sold it
so far as he knew, but he knew that many
of his customers in Montana. and still
further West, preferred the butterine and
oleomargarine to dairy butter for the reason
that it does not become rancid. He was
opposed to taxing any article of food with the
hope and expectation of driving it out of the
market. After talking the matter over for a
while President Bohrer appointed com
mittee, consisting of MessrS Grant. Doran.
Harrison, Gilbert and Griggs. to draft such
resolutions as they should think best. The
committee will report tomorrow.

A POSSIBLE CANDIDATE.
Mart Chandler Talks ON Third Dis.
trict Politics.

lrlCt
Mart Chandler of Red Wing was seen at
the Clarendon yesterday. Mr.. Chandler
has been urged by his friends in the Third
congressional district to enter the field for
congress In regard to his candidacy, he
said that he hadn't openly announced HIM
self vet, but his friends were anxious that
he enter the race for the nomination. lie
said that the local papers of Goodhue
county were booming B. 3. Herbert, editor
of the Red Wing Advance, for congress.
but he did not anticipate that he would cut
much of figure as his popularity was linz
tied and few weeks ago he was badly
beaten as Republican nominee for the may
orally of Red Wing.
1.-The woods are full of candidates in our
district" said Mr. Chandler, land at present
it is hard to tell who will draw the lucky num-
Der. The Democrats, 1 anticipate, will make
hard fight to elect their man. 1t is a fact that
the farmers and aboring classes hold the bal
ance OF power and the man who receives their
support is the one who will be elected
When asked who would get the nominal
ton for governor, he said it was hard to
tell but he thought it would be some man
whose name had not yet been mentioned in
connection with the nomination. He
thought William Window would be quite
candidate before the campaign was over.
He predicted stabbing atfray
between Gilman and Gibbs and
gave it as his opinion that Gilman would
make hard run for the nomination, mas
much as he stood well with the farmers,
not only in his district, but throughout the
state. He said the st. Cloud. Mankato d
Austin railroad trouble would be used
against him by his opponents, but antici-
pated that it would have but little effect, as
he had virtually been INDICATED in the con-
frmatien of Campbell as United States
marshal.
CAUGHT IN CYCLONE.
Dropping the topic of politics, Mr..
Chandler turned the conversation ON the
subject of cyclones, and said that the
papers in commenting on those that had
happened in the state, had never mentioned
the one of 1868, which swept
through Goedhue county, destroying
buildings and devastating the country, kill
ing several people. Mr.. Chandler was
caught in the cyclone. He was riding
through the country, and hearing it coming,
he sprang from his wagon and threw HIM
self on the ground between two small oak
trees. The cyclone swept over him, totally
destroyed his wagon, stripped the harness
from his horse and blew the animal into
the top of tree. where it lay twelve hours
and was finally taken down safe and
sound. The wagon seat was blown twelve
miles across the river into Wisconsin.
Around the spot where Mr.. Chandler lay
were deposited twelve wagon-loads of
! fence rails. The only injuries that he re-
ceived were several body bruises and a
deep cut in the bridge of his nose. He
was obliged to walk with crutches for three
weeks,

G. W. Sprague, chairman of the Farm
ers' Alliance of Minnesota and farmer of
Fillmore county, was in the city yester-
day. He said the work of organizing SUBJ
ordinate lodges throughout the state was
progressing satisfactorily, and that no less
Than 10000 members had been secured
since the first alliance was formed in Fill
more county few years ago. He said that
there would be meeting of the members
of the executive committee at the state
capitol on the 25th of the present month,
when the question of what, If any, political
action should be taken by the alliance in the
coming state campaign, would be decided.
Personally he was opposed to mixing the
alliance up in any political campaign, and
was therefore opposed to its Endorsement of
any political candidates or holding a con-
vention and placing a ticket in the field.
He was of the opinion that members of the
alliance should be allowed to follow their
individual tastes and should not be held
down to any man or set of men by the
action of a convention. He anticipated a
lively meeting as all of the committeeman
were not OF his way of thinking, and con
siderable discussion on the point was
therefore probable.

He said that the residents of the territory
had not given up the hope of a division,
and While such a result might not be
reached during the present session of con-

session. The division feeling, he said, was
growing in the territory, and it would be

members of congress would not attempt IL
delay action on the appeal. He intimateC
that If the petition for admission could be-

STREET SAYINGS.

The following communication was yes
terday received at the GLOBE office:
To the Editor of the Globe.
Does the capitol belong to the state or the
janitor, and has the janitor right to keep
the door to the dome of the capitol closed for
weeks, so that if anybody wants to go up there
they have to hunt up the janitor, and then
not be allowed to go up there? Mr.. Editor,
just go up to the capitol and look at the do or
that leads to the dome. Judge for yourself
that few have been disappointed. Yours
truly, CITIZEN.
Cit" old boy, the capitol belongs to the
ianitor, Ed Harmon, as has often been
heretofore stated. He owns, in fee simple,
with all rights reserved, the capitol and the
grounds adjoining. By an agreement with
Ed, Gov. Hubbard and several other
officials have desk room within the build
ing, but they act simply under Eds orders
and in their absence he issues writs of habeas
corpus and Thanksgiving proclamations
AS he owns the building, Ed has right to
open up the dome or not as he sees fit Do
not judge him hastily. Citizen" on that
account. He means well, and with all the
affairs of the great commonwealth resting
on his shoulders and the moving of his
lawn about the building besides, he over
looks many minor technicallties.
~
Ed is one of the best ianitors that ever
turned key. He knows his business. and
if the door to the dome, or any other door is
locked, it is because some one whose word
is law to him has gone out to that effect,
and neither brides nor threats can move Ed.
The door is open unless there is some good
reason why the officials have ordered Ed to
keep the door closed.

Speaking of the proposed game of base
ball between the Press cub teams from the
two cities, Carl Neuhausen of the Volks-

between a nine from the Pittsburg, Pa,
Press club and nine attorneys of that city.
The attorneys won by score of some
twenty odd to four. The newspaper men
held conference after the game and
agreed to reverse the score to favor the
Press club. All the papers had essen
TALLY the same account of the game,
with the Press team as the win
ners. Delegations from the lawyers nine
began visiting the newspaper offices,
but according to agreement were
told that mo corrections would CO." and
so the general public never saw in print
the victory of the attorneys, for the news
paper men had ''sinch." A day or two
after the game all the papers printed chal-
lenges on behalf Of the press club for an
