The Washington Delegation.

A Saltwater man at the Merchants yes
terday relieved himself in this fashion:
washington county legislators are close
as clans on the question Of United States
senator, but each is solid against high
tariff man. None such need apply to them,
for dead certainty. Of course, being
Democrats. they do not deem it proper or
necessary to discuss the question of voting
for Republican. There will be four votes
from our county for some good Democrat
from the start. Should the contingency
arise where the state of Minnesota would
be manifestly benefited by the election of
some conservative Republican of tariff re-
form views, the Washington members could
be trusted. Were the contest to be between
Davis and Mcmillan there is but little doubt
that the delegation could be induced to
throw their votes for the latter. Mcmillan
was an old settler in Washington county,
and the people remember him. If it
should be between Knute Nelson and
Davis, the tariff views of Nelson,
who. secure in the bulwark of an impregna-
BILE majority, could always afford to do as
he pleased, and who pleases to favor tariff
reform, would count for very much. In
short. after the ultra -rabid protection speech
Davis made at saltwater last fall he could
not expect many Democratic votes"

Senator Buckman's Little scheme

A representative from one of the counties
in the Fifth district, who is under instruc-
tions to vote for Davis, said yesterday: "All
parties here in the Fifth district are really
in favor of Gilman. if he would consent to
be candidate; but, as he nor any one else
knows how Buckman, Lee, Lum and Flynn
stand, the probabilities are that Gilman will
continue to bank saw logs and not enter the
fight for United States senator. There is
some doubt of any one from the northern
part of the state getting any help from
Buchanan, as it is said he aspires to succeed
Knute Nelson, and thereby shelve Kindred"

The Dodge County Members.

Special to the Globe
KAssoN, Dec. 3O.-The Dodge county
representatives to the legislature are di-
vided as to the choice for United States
senatOr-E. n. Dodge, senator-elect, be-
ing opposed to c. K. Davis, while George
B. Arnold is an OutspOken advocate of
Davis election. Mr.. Dodge is an anti-pro-
tectiOnist and an anti-monopolist, and has
been heard to declare that the only reason
that would cause him to vote for Davis for
senator would be the united voice of his
constituents, which Mr.. Dodge knows is
overwhelmingly against Davis on account
of his high tariff. protection sentiments, as
enunciated upon the stump last fall and
rebuked by the people in the defeat of his
candidates. Mr.. Dodge is utterly opposed
to Mr.. Washbun as being monopolist
and being connected with the railroad and
wheat rings and in this he classes j. S.
Pillsbury. 1t is safe to say that he will
come to st. Paul opposed to these. and
seek in his candidate one untrammeled by
these influences. Mr.. Arnold. representa-
tive-eect, is an active, energetic business
man of large experience and is believed to
prefer Davis purely upon personal grounds.

Once ttiefs ~as a maid whose beauty
Put to shame the choicest art,
Yet she'd shirk nd household duty,
And she even had a heart.
Der her face smiles chased each other
Like the sunbeams in the rose
And she never let her mother
Sweep the steps or wash the clothes.
Every night the grand piano
Sang, responsive to her touch
And this maid of charming manner
Oft made bread and pies and such.
She was fair of form and feature,
Diamonds paled before her glance
Yet this handsome dazzling creature
Used to mend her brothers pants.

tits a great deal easier to do wrong

wrong done, Newspaper readers will
recall among the kilograms of few

Adams Express Company had missed
from its Philadelphia office apackage
containing $4,000, and that clerk
ma ned Math Pratt had bee2 arrested
on the charge of stealing the money.
The Judge fixed the bail bond at $4,000,
a sum which it was impossible for the
clerk to raise, hence the poor fellow was
sent to prison. Millions of people read
the item. and in their minds convicted
Pratt of theft. Since then the wires
have said nothing about the affair, but
from a Pittsburg paper we learn that
the package of money, instead O., being
sent TO Shamokin, Pa, where it be

NAMES PROHIBITION.

What kind of professions viii Nea,
DOW and his brother Prohibitionists OF
Maine now putforth? What viii they
say as to The succt IS OF their cold
water laws? For a generatio Maine
has been a Prohibitory State; it IS
crim@ to import liquor, crime to sell
it, and almosta crime to drink il. When
it has been asserted that the laws ala
not prevent the importation OF liquor,
did not prevent the selling of it, and
did not prevent intoxicahon, Dow
and associates have cried liar and
slanderer, and declared, on oath II
necessary, that the prohibitory law was
a grand success. Success could only
mean that the law was enforced or
obeyed; anything short Of that would
necessarily be failure. Notwlthstand--
ing Dow's eminent success, he and his
party went into the campaign just
closed with the avowed purpose Of
electing to office men who
were Prohibitionists, and who
would see that the statutes
meant something more than COM
mands and threats for which no
body had respect and to which no
body gave heed. If prohibition were
really a success, what occasion was
there for labor in its interest, and why
elect men to enforce the laws which
were already obeyed? ~
The truth is, and this election has
again demonstrated it, that notwith-
standing the prohibitory laws, there is
no more prohibition in Maine than
there in Utah, and not so much as
there is in this Territory outside the
cities and larger towns. Our high
license is far more prohlbitory than
Names absolute prohibition. The
Maine people who want whisky will get
it and do get it, despite the law; and
they will continueto buy and sell whisky
and get drunk, whatever the statute
books may decree to the contrary, until
such time as the popular sentiment is
Overwhelmingly on the side, not only Of
temperance, but of prohibition. That
such is not the case now, is known by
the returns. Gut of total vote of per-
haps $4,000, less than 4 1000 were cast for
the strict Prohibition ticket and move
ment. 1t is not to be presumed that
the lac, 600 voters are all drinking men,
or that they are opposed to prohibition:
bat it is to be supposed that the great
major ty of them realize the fact that
popular opinion in Maine makes pro-
hibition impracticable.
We hope Neal Dow will continue to
labor in the good cause OF temperance
and sincerely wish that he can 1--we to
see the day when Intoxicating liquors as
a beverage will cease to be drunk III his
State, but until the glorious time comes,
wouldn't it be just as well for him to
admit the truth and say that Prohibi-
ton is a staggering failure in Maine as
in these United States.
