An Open Letter.

M. j. Mallon of st. Vincent has sent the
following open letter to ex-Collector Book
walter:
j. Bookwalter, ex-Collector Customs, Dis
trlct OF Minnesota: In an interview with a
GLOBE reporter, as published in it's issue of
18th inst, you say that an ''Irish
clerk, in conjunction with saloon
keeper from Fergus Falls and colored
man, preferred the charges on which you
were dismissed from the collectors Office of
this district. Now, as l was the only Irish
man on the custom force at that time, pre-
sumo you mean me. In reply to this allega-
ton, l will say that / neither preferred
charges in conjunction with Capt. John Hay
OF Fergus Falls. nor the colored man Won
person or persons, nor independently of
them against you. l never spoke to Capt.
Hay only as newspaper correspondent when
he visited this village previous to your dis
mlssal. L have not seen him since, neither
did correspond with him after he left here
cerned he can answer for himself
You say I preferred charges against
you because my chances of retaining office
were very SLIM Why were they? Was it
because, as you allege. / was "a strong Blaine
man?' Certainly not, for he was your first
and last choice. Was it because I was in
competent or dishonest? If so why did you
not discharge me? The only reason 1 know
for you attributing to me the filing of those
charges was simply because l was Irish
and had enough independence in me not to be
an ''office boy" for you. That word Irish
apparently seemed to sound well before you
learned Of DR.. Guernon's appointment, but
after that it turned sour. You need not, Mr.
Bookwalter, try to pose as Aforementioned,
because you know that during your term of
office more abuses sprung up in the custom
force than ever before, and, what is worse,
were allowed to increase and multiply
under your own eyes. Can you deny that
some of your deputies appropriated govern
ment funds and were allowed to go unpun-
;fshed? You, instead of trying to cover up
such things, should have been the first
to have had these men arrested
Can you deny that after your appointment as
collector you reinstated man in office who
mad been removed by your predecessor on
the strength of lengthy petition from the
citizens of Pembina and this village for con-
duct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman?
Notwithstanding you pose as a member of
the holier-than-thou class, man whose par
TALLY while collector of this district to GER
tain pet subordinates earned for him the dis
gust of all who knew him. You say the Of
fee is at the disposal of the president and you
cannot secure it without an order. 1t is not
likely, however, that the president will issue
you such an order. NJ. J. MALLoN.

trict and would make good run. He also
said that if Senator Hall of Red Wing or
United States Marshal Campbell of Litch-
field was nominated he would take the
stump against either of them
Referring to his own position in politics,
he said that two years ago he voted for
President Cleveland, although he did not
make Cleveland speeches during his con-
gressional campaign in the Third district
against Strait, the Republican nominee 1t
was not considered at all probable, he said
that Cleveland would or could carry the
state or district, which he assigned as the
reason why the presidential contest was not
brought up in his campaign. He said that
he thought it was better to save one or two
congressman than to lose the state and dis
trict by dragging in the presidential bust
ness. While not saying that he was DEM
Ocrat two years ago. he said that he was the
candidate of three parties for congress, the
Democratic party being of the trio, and
that coming very near election he was en-
Titled to some consideration at the hands of
the administration and was entitled to the
position OF surveyor general.
MINOR NOTES.
r. f. Pettigrew, Sioux Falls, OAK, came in
from the West. A prominent factor in the
territorial affairs is Mr.. Pettigrew, as he has
figured i'll all the past Republican territorial
conventions and has a very large following.
He represented his district in the legislature
or more than one occusion and also served as
a delegate to congress for single term, de-
feating the late Mr.. Raymond. His visit was
brief.
George W. Sprague. Fillmore county, came
up to attend the meeting of the state railway
and warehouse commissioners. He is presi-
dent of the Farmers alliance and is most en-
thusiastic worker in the interests of that or
ganization.
Senator Rice of Willmar registered at one
OF the hotels. He is still out of politics and
claims that he is not a candidate for lieuten-
ant-governor on the Republican ticket al
though frequently mentioned for that place.

En- the Third District.

Ignatus Donnelly, at the Merchants yes
terday, said that he thought the Democrats
of the Third congressional district had it in
their power to name and elect the next con-
gresham from that district. His idea was
that the most available man for the place
was Asa Barton of Faribault, whom the
Democrats ran for governor against G. K.
Davis and the latter defeated him by only
5000 votes. With Mr.. Barton as the DEM
ocratic congressional candidate, Mr.. DON
nelly thought that there was no doubt of
his election, as Barton would draw the far
mers' vote and also the solid Democratic
vote and thus be sure of an election. Next
to Barton, he considered ex-State Senator
Bonniwell of Hutchinson as the bes man
for the Democrats to nominate, as he was
strong with the different factions of the dis

Texas Democrats.

GALVESTON, Tex, Aug. 10.-The Dem
ocratic state convention met here to-day.
James Bonner was made temporary chair
man. The convention then proceeded to
the selection OF committee on credentials,
permanent organization and platform, con-
sisting of one delegate from each senatorial
district. This occasioned sharp
debate, as there are several con-
tested delegations, who held that the
right of representation of these delegations
should be first determined before the con-
vention proceeded. After much wrangllng
and amid great uproar the committees were
appointed and the convention adjourned
until tomorrow. Everything indicates
that this will become the most exciting
convention ever held in Texas, as factional
antagonism was strongly developed in the
proceedings to-day.

THE COLUMBIA ASSOCIATION.


The GLOBE publishes to-day the full text
of the address issued by the Columbia asso-
citation yesterday to the people of this state.
The object of the organization is to create
public sentiment favorable to more liberal
legislation regulating the liquor traffic. AS
long as the organization confines itself to
its avowed purpose its object will be
perfectly legitimate and will doubtless
make itself effective. If, however,
it should attempt to resist the enforcement
of existing laws it will deprive itself of
public sympathy and support. The best
way to get rid of obnoxious laws is to rig
idly enforce them If they are really OBJ
noxious strict enforcement of them will
soon arouse public sentiment which will
lead to their repeal. The people of this
country are law-abiding people and they
hold to the principle that it is better to
submit TO a bad law than to defy consti-
tuted authority. The liquor dealers can
strengthen their hold on public sentiment
if they themselves will combine for the en-
forcement of all laws relating to the traffic.
And if any of the laws On the statute books
are obnoxious and they demonstrate it to
the public there will be no difficulty in Sc
curing repeal of those laws.

SIOUX FALLS, OAK, Aug. 1O.-The St.

this afternoon by score of "a to ). The
ST. Pauls gave a beautiful exhibition of
skill, batting hard and fielding finely. For
three innings the game was well contested
but III the fourth inning the
Sioux Falls became badly ratified
and played miserably the remainder of
the game. st. Paul made twenty-five hits
with total of twenty-eght, while Sioux
Falls is credited with six hits and total of
eleven. Hurst of the home team batted the
ball over right field fence in the ninth

PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 1O.-The Phillies
lost an interesting game to the Chicagos to-
day. The home club played superbly in the
field. wild throw by Mulvey and a base on
balls being the only errors, but each cost a
run. The visitors made seven errors, only
one of which resulted disastrously. The
batting was nearly even, but the champions
did theirs when it would do the most good.
For the Phillies, Irwin scored in gthe
second on tumble by Williamson, hit bv
Mulvey and steal and wild throw by
Kelly. Andrews scored in the third on
his own single and Bastians three-bagger.

A rule, not generally known to travellers on
the Pullman sleeping coaches, is that the oc'
cupants of section can not arrange to have
the lower berth made up without having the
upper berth let down. In other words the
occupants of the upper and lower berths in
any section can not pool their issues, so to
speak. and occupy the lower berth and allow
the upper one to remain on the ceiling. No
person taking whole section, can enjoy the
lower berth without having the upper one let
down.
The rule is inflexible and no exceptions will
be allowed. The porter is required to pull
down the upper berth whether it is occupied
or not so long as the lower berth is
occupied Thus the occupant of the
lower BERTH although perfectly willing to
pay for the section, is deprived of light and
well-ventilated sleeping apartment by the
rule that requires the upper berth to cover
the sleeping passenger. The rule, L believe,
is made for the purpose of keeping a check
on the conductor aud porters, and to prevent
them from misappropriating the money given
them as fees and tips
