r COME TO THE FAIR.

Doubtless many farmers living in remote
parts Of the state have almost concluded
not to come to the state fair because of the
attendant expense they think they can ill
afford. For many reasons the saving effected
by staying at home is false economy. No
class of people work harder or more centin-
uouSly than the farmers, and none is in
greater need of relaxation. When recreation
Of a kind which includes instruction with
recuperation can be enjoyed it is all the more
important that the opportunity should not
be allowed to pass without being taken adj
vantage OF. Such relaxation is afforded by
the state fair. Not only, by coming to the
state fair, will the farmer obtain the short
season of rest which he has so well earned
and a beneficial change from the monotony
Of country life, but he will also find much
at the fair to assist him in the Intelligent
conduct of farm work. He will see what
others have accomplished, and wherein they
have Or have not succeeded better than
himself; he will observe the lat

iii no other light except as enjoyment pure
and simple. visit to the state fair would be
no extravaganza on the part of even the
most economically disposed, because with
the renewed vigor which the recreation
would entail would also come the capacity
for more effective work. And viewed from
the standpoint of affording information of
the most thorough and valuable sort in
everything concerning farming, the visit
becomes almost a necessity. He must in
deed be an unobseryant person who, in the
midst of the many attractions which the
fair will afford, cannot derive something
therefrom which will result to his personal
benefit.

Mr. Sexton Makes a Brilliant Speech
the Irish Question.

Mr.. Sexton Ma kes a Brilliant Speech
on the Irish Question.
LONDON, Aug. 27.-In the house of
commons to-day Lord Randolph Churchill
gave notice that the government would
propose the abolition of the secret service
fund. This announcement was greeted
with cheers Mr.. Sexton, who was loudly
cheered when he arose to speak, said that
the government enjoyed great advantages
in regard to Mr.. ParneiPs amendment, be-
cause, besides the power and emoluments
of Office, they were. by the energy of their
casual allies, relieved Of the necessity of
framing policy in the cabinet and defend
ing it in debate. Cheers. He regretted
to notice that Mr.. Chamberlain was absent
and said his absence afforded questionable
example of British pluck. Mr.. Chamber
lain showed what confidence he
had in his case by remaining away.
Laughter. The more Mr.. Chamberlain
spoke. the better was MIR. Sexton pleased,
because he regarded Mr.. Chamberlain as a
political misdoer, only requiring to be
given sufficient material to execute the
ends of public justice on himself. Laugh
teri. Mr.. Chamberlain had spoken of Mr..
Parnelrs amendment as inconclusive, in a
speech from which half a dozen conflicting
conclusions could be drawn. The amend
ment was clear and defined. If the second
clause were adopted, declaring that the
British taxpayer ought not to be plundered
for the benefit of the landlords. then the
government must modify its announced
policy or resign. If the first clause were
adopted, declaring the Irish tenants cas-
beyond their control as they were
UNABLE TO PAY THEIR RENTS,
Lord Randolph Churchill must forthwith
withdraw his utterances rendered to incite
the landlords to the adoption of violent
measures and adopt remedial measures in
stead of policy of force. Cheersl. Al
though the queens speech contained no al
fusion to land purchase, Mr.. Sexton chal-
lenged Lord Randolph Churchill to deny

SARANAc INN, N. Y, Aug. 27.-Life
has been somewhat of burden to-day even
to the residents of the wilderness. The
thermometer ran up to "a in the shade and
few ventured beyond the friendly shade of
the hotels broad piazzas. There the guests
played whist, bezique and cribbage and Mrs.
Cleveland joined them. They were highly
entertained by the observations of transients
who had either come over from neighbour
ing camps to see the presidential party. or
who had stopped to take dinner at the inn.
Half dozen ladies were picked out by the
strangers as Mrs. Cleveland and their
charms were variously commented upon.
Whist was the presidents substitute for a
fishing trip. the comfortable boat house of
the doctor affording cover for the gentle
men who joined in the game. Many of the
guests went over to Paul Smiths to-day to
the fair for the benefit of the sanitarium.
The season for hunting deer with hounds
opens Sept. 1 and the guides and visitors

GEN. LoGAN,s VISIT.

Gen. JOHN a, LOGAN is coming up to
Minnesota ostensibly for short summer
vacation, but there is suspicion abroad
that the general is really lurking for the
weak places in Mr.. BLAINE's fences If
Gen. LOGAN determines to enter the presi-
Dental race and contest for the nomination
with the Plumed Knight, it is very essen
tial that be should have good Northwest
eTn backing. Minnesota's fourteen votes in
the convention would be a valua-
bic contribution to the LOGAN
boom. 1t would be good starter
to have the North Star state at the head of
his column. Nobody is better aware of
this than Gen. LOGAN. And while he is
being famed by our lake breezes and his
eagle eye is taking in the beauties of our
prairies, of our agricultural fair and our
Exposition, it can be relied on that the Tlli-
nois senator will at the same time be taking
horoscope of the situation in this neck OF
the woods. Gen. LOGAN is a good cow
trader. 1t will be remembered that during
his long contest with Mr.. MORRISON for his
last senatorial election, he ran out into the
Western part of Illinois one day to buy a
COW. 1t Sc happened that there was leg
islahye vacancy to be filled in the county

election was in progress. The legend

CHICAGO. Aug. 27.-Charley Vellek,
aged 10 years, living at No. Is Zion Place,
was tempted to run out and play last
evening without his fathers consent and
came near paying the penalty with his life.
The boys with whom he had committed the

They were shocked to see him hanging to

to other points of the wall. He was black

election from geographical point of view.
He points out that even in the case of Eng
land what we have refused is not really a
refusal, but is only slower acknowledge

describes as follows:
All the currents of the political atmos-
phere, as between the two islands, have been
cleansed and sweetened, for Ireland knows
now what she never has known before, that

beating in unison with her heart; where there
are not minds earnestly bent on the acknowl-

happier circumstances, what is there, Mr..
Giadstone goes on to state, in comparison
that would tend to make it advanta-
geous to Ireland AS an island, with
many hundreds of miles of coast with

should she expose herself to the risk of in

CUTTINGS IMPUDENCE.

Editor CUTTING, who was the provoking
cause of all the Mexican rumpus, has issued
all address to the people of the United
States. in which he expresses gratitude for
the public interest that was manifested in his
case and is especially grateful to Secretary
BAYARD, Resident Consul BINGHAM and
the American newspapers for so promptly
coming to his rescue. If CUTTING had
stopped with simple expression of his
gratitude it would have been all right A
man who has just escaped from the clutches
of the bandit MeXicans has right to feel
grateful. But Editor CUTTING is not sat
isfed to stop here. He urges the people of
the United States to keep their anger at
boiling heat and to continue to wear their
war paint until Mexico pays an indemnity.
1t is evident that Mr.. CUTTING wants dam
ages for his Imprisonment and wants the
United States to back him in it. The best
thing that CUTTING can do is to devote
his q, time exclusively tc holding
his head on his shoulders, now
that he is once more on freedoms ground,
and leave to the people of the United States
the matter of attending to their own bust
ness in their own way. Mr.. CUTTINGS
advice'is not needed. The people of the
United; States have no indemnity claim
against Mexico because of CUTTINGS i'm
prisonment. He might have been impris-
oned for life and the United States would
not have suffered his loss from American
society. 1t is the settlement of a principle
in international law that this country is
now adjusting with Mexico. The govern
ment is not in the business of collecting
damages for impecunious Texas editors. A
war with Mexico may be a good thing to
have, but we don't want to see it started in
that way,

WEALTHY INDIANS.

The Red Lake Indians, through the new
treaty which the commissioners have nego-
tiated with them, have become very import

course of time they become citizens, with
votes to be influenced and candidates for
office to offer, they will attract more atteu-

arrangement most of the reservation belong

sale will give each Indian family
fortune of $50, 900 at least. The Indian
village will thus enjoy the unique distinc-

THE GLOBE AND THE FAIR,

Il
In to-day's GLOBE will be found full
account of the improvements that have
been made at the state fair grounds, as
well as detailed statement of the exhibit
that is to be made at the coming fair, which
opens next Monday. 1t will be seen that
the state fair management has kept its
promise to make this the greatest fair ever
held in the Northwest. Everything will be
in place and ready for exhibition by the
opening day. This is to be fair of which
the people of Minnesota are to bs proud.
1t will be a magnificent exhibition of Min
nesota products and will convince the thou
sands of visitors who will be attracted
here OF the wonderful resources and mar
velous progress of the North Star state
And in this connection the GLOBE points
with pardona5le pride to its columns
this morning as an evidence that
it is keeping i'll the van of Northwestern n
progress. The business men of the n ORTIZ
west have come to learn the value of the
GLOBE as an advertising medium. They
have discovered that its efforts to give the
people of this great section newspaper in
every respect worthy Of them and of the
country in which they live have been ap-
preciated by them. The GLOBES efforts
in promoting the rapid development and
building up of the great Northwest have
been rewarded by securing the largest cir
culation of any newspaper this side of Chi
cago. The business m en- of the Northwest
are conscious of this fact. as our advertising
columns abundantly testify. 1t is there
forein no spirit of vanity, but directly in the
line of the plain truth, that we say the St.
Paul GLOBE and this years exhibit at the
state fair are the two biggest things ever
known IN the Northwest.

President Lincoln had a substitute in

while talking over old times in Washing

1896, that Gen. Fry, then provost mar

president wanted substitute to go to the
war for him. At that time l was connected
with the Third Ward Draft club, the prin-

There lived in our ward son of a
clergyman who bore the usual reputation
given to ministers sons, and he was natur-

desired to represent the president. and a
check from the White house for $500. paw

Nothing was ever heard of the young man
afterward, but it was generally believed
that he was killed during the Wilderness
campaign.
''Our draft club gave concert for the

that land purchase formed part of the
government scheme. Cheersl. Mr.:
Chamberlain, he continued, was master Of
the useful art of suppressing any part of
his case which did not suit his purpose.
Such practice was not calculated to give
politician permanent advantage in the
eyes of English gentlemen. [Cheersl The
British government being partly answerable
for the wrongdoing of Irish landlords.
Mr.. Gladstone had made the landlords the
most liberal offer they would ever receive.
When that offer was Spurned and used to
bring discredt upon the offerer. there was
no obligation in honor to renew it. If there
were any more talk about honor, Mr.. Glad
stone could doubtless say as Lady Teazle"
said to Charles Surfaces ''Had we not better
leave honor out of the question:" Laugh
ter. Certainly Mr.. Gladstone would
never make Mr.. Chamberlain the judge or
custodian of his honor. Mr.. Sexton be-
lieved that the Liberals Of the future
would not be party to the plundering of
the tenants of Ireland. Cheers. Mr..
Gladstone's land purchase scheme was Sc
cured by every penny of the public reve-
nue. of Ireland. This was a security of,
&7, 000 900 yearly to cover charge of
90, coo. 600 yearly. True union would have
resulted from the adoption of that policy
and
NO UNNATURAL COMBINATION
of intriguing politicians could long delay
that union. [Cheers. The appointing of
Gen. Butler would not promote such a
union, but would give Ireland the charac-
ter of foreign country. Mr.. Chamber

was content to wait as long as the govern
ment wished. If Mr.. Chamberlain had

played second fiddle while Rome was burn
ing. Great laughter. Continuing, he
said that the proposed commissions would
be productive of no benefit and would only
delay dealing with pressing questions. The
policy of Mr.. Chamberlain was to oppose
any amendment which could act as vote
of cenSure against the government while
Lord Randolph Churchilrs Irish policy was
to draw bills on the future which he did not
intend to honor. (Cheers) In conclusion
Mr.. Sexton said that the Parnellites would
counsel Irishmen to stand by each other and
not be intimated by any fear of combina-
tions. They would remind Irishmen that
Mr.. Gladstone's great effort to promote
peace between the two countries was sup
ported by million and quarter of Britons
and that the majority against it consisted of
votes only. not of men. They would do
everything possible in fairness and business
to promote peace. but they could not make
themselves traitors to Ireland by asking
the people during the coming winter to
pauperize themselves in order to furnish
arguments to their own ruin. (Cheers.)
Mr.. Sexton spoke for nearly two hours.
Mr.. Chamberlain entered the house shortly
after Mr.. Sexton commenced and remained
till he finished.
Mr.. ParnelPs amendment was rejected
by vote OF 304 to ISL. Lord Harrington,

And put it in his hat.
He wore the thinneSt seersuckers,
White necktie and all that.
He bought five-cent palm-leaf fan,
And used it all the time;
And where they sell those cooling drinks
He blew in many dime.
He lived on sherbet and ice cream,
And on a cake of ice
He slept at night, but did not mud
1t much like paradise.
In short, he did most everything,
This poor, deluded fool,
And racked his brain for novel schemes
Still, he could not keep cool.
But one day on the street he met
A girl he'd never seen;
Her face was angel fair, but pro I'd
And naughty was her mien.
Then in his simple. New York way,
He murmured: 'tAin't it hot?"
The Boston maid just looked at him
And froze him on the spot.
