part of the employees until after the Mime
apOlis trouble occurred. The st. Paul
switchmen went out the same day the no.
tice was given, and the railroads had no
opportunity to adjust the matter i'll adj
vance. Consequently, however much pub
lie sympathy may be ON the side of the
Minneapolis strikers, and however much
justice there may be IN their demands. the
same conditions do not apply to the ST.
Paul strikers. But so far as protecting the
interests of the two cities is concerned there
is practically no difference in the
attitude of the two mayors. The
Republicans organs are bubbling over with
laudations of Mayor RICE, and he deserves
every bit of it. And yet they are denounc-
ing Mayor AMEs for doing exactly what
Mayor RICE has done. declaring his inten-
ton to preserve the peace of the city and to
protect the property of its citizens, and ad-
vising arbitration. 1t is fortunate for the
community that DR.. AMEs is the mayor OF
Minneapolis at this crisis. No other man
so thoroughly enjoys the confidence OF the
people of all classes. The business inter-
ests of Minneapolis are safe under his pro-
lection, and the workingmen know that he
is their friend and will see that they are
not oppressed. His manly, Straightfor-
ward course has inspired public confidence
in his ability to master the situation. 1t
looks to be a Providence that AMES and
RICE are the respective heads OF the two
governments of the Twin cities at this
crisis

200 majority, and Judge Macdonald may run
ahead of that. Mr.. Anderson, of Carver our
candidate for state senator, is representa-
tive Scandinavian and a very popular mer-
chant. / believe we shall elect a Democratic
senator this year. My brother, Fred Du Toit.
is up again, and has no opposition for the
shrievealty. We have hopes of getting
through our entire legislative and county
ticket.
r. Southworth, Shakopee-we who know
Judge Macdonald probably love him best. He
is the unanimous choice Of Scott county,
which from local pride in previous cam
paigns, has felt friendly toward Mai. Strait.
Not only will Judge Macdonald capture the
district, but DR.. Ames will secure a tremend-
uous vote. Ours is an agricultural district,
and DR.. Ames is the farmers candidate. To
them his name is synonym of farmers
rights"

IT WAS WELL SAID,

In speaking of Hon. E. RICE Gen.
JOHNSON said in his remarks at Pfeifers
hall: There are no ties that bind the
human family so closely together as those
forged in the furnace of common privations,
common hardshipS and common dangers.
Hence we are drawn to Mr.. RICE. In the
war with Mexico he fought for his country,
and was brave and gallant soldier, partic-
ipating in the hardships, dangers and priva-
tons incidental to that war. He would
have been engaged id the last war, but he
was too fat to walk and too heavy to ride,
but his big heart was in full sympathy with
the gallant boys who went forth from our
state. Mr.. RICE is a noble man, and
worthy Of the support of every man In the
district. That he will receive their suffrage
there is no doubt whatever"

RATHER THIN,

In his explanation of why his road re-
fuses to arbitrate, the general manager of
the Milwaukee line unwittingly furnishes
the Minneapolis switchmen with a strong
argument in behalf of their demands. The
facts as to the comparative cost of living in
Chicago and Minneapolis are just the re-
verse of what General Manager MILLER
states. 1t is more expensive for labor
ing man to live in Minneapolis than in Chi
cago. and thus, according to Mr.. MILLER's
argument. the Minneapolis employees would
be entitled to higher wages than the Chi
cago employees. It would be better for the
railroads to gracefully submit to arbitration
than to offend the public with such gauzy
pretexts for refusing to do it.

ROORRACKS.

Instead of being out on the stump en-
gagged in an intelligent discussion of the
issues involved in the campaign, the Repub-

around over the state in company with
MARDEN, of ''bog-trOtter" fame, connecting
roorbacks to spring on Gov. AMEs just
before the election, when, as they imagine.
it will be too late to reply to them. This
is an unmanly and undigniied piece of

it is being done. Fortunately the scheme

day. AS it was. she sustained heavy loss.
Shortly after IL o'clock fire broke out in a
vacant building on East Fourth street, and
high wind prevailing at the time. easily
carried the flames to four or five
other buildings, all of which were
totally destroyed with their contents. The
wind carried the burning emberS to Fifth
street, where second fire was started, but
fortunately it was soon gotten under con-
troll without doing serious damage. 1t is
believed the fire was the work of an incen-
diary. The building occupied by Mrs. j.

Bardwell, with their contents, were total
loss, and also the vacant building of j. H.
Blood. The losses are about half covered

husband rushed wildly for physician. Be-
fore they returned her arms and limbs
jerked convulsively and drew sharply I'D,
and she was dead. Efforts were made to re-
suscitate her. but in vain. She had taken
strychnino and in sufficient quantity to pro-

Coroner Hill was notified, and after examin-

his wife was AZ. Yesterday afternoon she
went out on marketing expedition, and
upon her return went up stairs, calling
her husband to follow. He did so, and just
as she reached the room she flung herself
upon the bed with the exclamation quoted
ABOVE. She had evidently just obtained the
poison, and had small vial of the deadly
powder on her person. 1t is the belief that
Jealousy was at the bottom of the suicide, but

there was no cause for it. About eight years

HENRY GEORGE to withdraw from the
mayoralty contest and to enter the held as
a candidate to succeed Mr.. HEWITT in con-
gress. The Herald thinks that if Mr..
GEORGE was elected mayor his administra-
ton would be dismal failure, but that he
would shine as star of the first magnitude
in the congressional constellation. The
Herald's suggestion is good one. AS long
as Mr.. GEORGE has made up his mind to
go into politics congress is his true field.
He could elucldate the land and tariff prob
lens in a way that would startle some of

IT WAS RIGHT.

To the Editor OF lne OlODe.
Had Mayor RICE the power to appoint an
extra police force of fifty men, and if he has
that power, was the situation threatening
enough to justify the additional expense?
a TAXPAYER.
st. Paul, Oct. 10.
Mayor RICE both had the power and
was justified in appointing the extra police
force 1t was judiciOus exercise OF the
discretionary power vested in him as cnlet
magistrate of the city, and so far as relates
to the question of expense, it was economy
to do it. An ounce of prevention is worth
pound of cure at any time. 1t will be
remembered that during the great strike of
1877 there was a riot at PittSburg, and
great destruction of property resulted from
it. The people of PitIsburg, who were in
sympathy with the strikers, stood by with
an approving nod when the rioters set fire
to long trains of freight cars belonging to
the Pennsylvania Railroad company. 1t
was sort of a frolic for the Pittsburg
people at the time, but it turned out that
the price paid for the fddling was very
dear. The city of Pittsburg is to-day
carrying a debt of several millions
of dollars incurred in paying the
Pennsylvania Railroad company for
the destruction of its property during those
memorable riots. and the burthen of the
tax falls on the very people who encouraged
the rioting. PittSburg's experience was a
valuable lesson to other cities. and among
others st. Paul has pro6ted by it. When
there was a threatened disturbance Mayor
RICE took the precauti0n to have the police
department in condition to protect the city
from violence in any emergency. The
small expense incurred in providing these
precautionary measures is nothing in COM
parison with what might have been the
cost if violence had occurred because Of a
lack of them, and big bill for damages had
been laid at the door of the city gov ern-

THROUGH an error which was made either
in handling the copy or reading the proof, an
article which appeared in yesterdays GLOBE
in reference to Miss NELLIE MCHENRY, the

house, contained misstatement, which con-
sisted in the substitution of Mr.. SAULsBURY's
name for that of Mr.. WEBSTER, the latter
gentleman, as is well known, being Miss Nc
HENRYs husband. The error was carried
further by the illustrations which the artist
made on the strength of the proofs furnished
him. 1t is hardly needless to say that no in
tention existed of injuring Miss MCHENRY's

her public career is successful.
