ALABELED CANDIDATE.

The Republican bosses in st. Paul are
borrowing the tactics Of the Republican
bosses in Minneapolis and are trying to win
the labor vote with honeyed words and fair
promises. The result is going to be the
same here as there. The workingmen of
st. Paul, like the workingmen of Mnneap-
oils, are intelligent enough to discern the
meaning of the bosses, and are independent
enough to assert their manhood by voting
just as they please. The mere act of
nominating a man who probably never
did days work of manual labor
in his life and clubbing him the
workingman's candidate is not going
to deceive the men who do work. The
workingmen are not gong to vote for
label. 1t is as much to the interest of the
laboring man to place competent men in Of
fee as it is to the interest of the capitalist.
If it becomes necessary for the laboring
classes to put labor candidates in the field
they viii take men from their own ranks
and not borrow one from the Republicans
There are any number of men in the labor
unions who are qualified to fill any office in
the land. Therefore it is not necessary for
them to borrow candidates from their enc
mics and be compelled to label them in or
der to distinguish them as workingmen.
The fact is that the Democratic party is so
entirely made up of the laboring classes
that it is not necessary to go beyond that
party to find a candidate who is in SYM
pathy with the labor interests.

A NEW sOuTuERN TssTrE.

While the comment excited by JEFFER-
son DAVIS recent speech at Montgomery
is still ripe, it might not be inappropriate
to call attention to another issue between
the North and South which has recently
been developed, and to which the proper
attention has not been given. The fair
fame of the entire North, including the
Northwest, is at stake, but as yet not a
single defender has appeared to con-
trovert the sweeping declarations which
have been made of Southern superiority
in matter of extreme Importance to the
welfare of the country. Miss PARLoA, the
famous exponent OF common sense cookery,
has been making tour of the South. AS a
result of her investigations she declares
that the women of the South are better
cooks than their Northern sisters. If the
lady has allowed her judgement to become
prejudced under the seductive influence
of the fried chicken and wa1fies which
form the most complete expression
of Southern culinary skill, she is
perhaps eXcusable for her evidently
biased statement Nevertheless it is to be
feared that she does not credit the women
of New England with that need of praise
which is theirs by right. as the constructors
of the world-famous pumpkin pie, nor the
women of the West with the skill which
enables them to satisfactorily cater to the
gastronomic necessities of race of men
whose energy and enterprise could not
have reached their present wonderful pro-
portions unless supported by the
sustaining influence of good cookery.
If, as is suspected, this declaration of
Miss PARLoA's is simply in the nature of
an inducement to Northern young men to
seek practical brides in the South, it should
be earnestly protested against. When the
young men demonstrate their ability to Sc
cure the necessary articles of food with
which cookery concerns itself, they will
have no difficulty in having it demonstrated
to their entire satisfaction that Northern
young women are equally fortunate with
those of the South in the possession of Gull
nary taIant

THE PISTOL ACCIDENT.

st. Paul furnishes another victim to the
pistol-carrying habit. 1t is the old. old
story of the results of the careless handling
of firearms. A brother and sister are to-
gether in room. Their hearts are light and
free and happy. Theirioyous laughter glad
dens the home. Suddenly pistol shot
rings out on the air of quiet Sabbath
evening, and the girl whose merry life was
the light of the household lies dead-the vic
tim of the brothers carelessness. He didn't
know it was loaded" So he didn't. but
that does not bring the light back to the
darkened home, nor does it lift the load of
grief from the crushed hearts of the father
and mother and the brothers and sisters of
the broken family. 1t is sad
sad story, yet it is hardly worth while to
dwell upon the moral of it. So much has
been said and written about the danger of
Carrying firearms and all to no purpose.
Laws have been passed and lie as dead let
tiers on the statute books. Young men and
old men parade the streets every day with
pistol handles sticking out of their hin
pockets. They are not even reminded that
there is a law against the practice. Day
after day boys are playing with ''unloaded
pistols" pointing them and swapping them
at their playmates or at some member of
the family. Now and then the ''unloaded''
weapon goes off and sends ball crashing

THE BARRIERS REST.

Yesterday was the first Sunday holiday
that the st. Paul BARRIERS have had for
long tme-the first that some of them ever
had-and yet it is safe to assert that none
OF them feel the worse for it this morning
They are neither poorer in purse nor in
health. One good days rest out of the
seven is every mans due. 1t is natures
law and ought to be observed. There is no
reason why an exceptional violation of it
should be required of BARRIERS alone of all the
working classes. The wisdom of the action
of council requiring barber shops to be
closed on Sunday conforms to public senti-
ment, and its wisdom will be more apparent
the longer it is in force. Even those who
oppose it now will become reconciled. and
within less than a year they would not have
the ordinance repealed if they could.

through the brain or heart of an innocent
and unsuspecting victim A momentary
thrill OF horror runs through the commu-
nifty and everybody at once denounces the
practice of pistol carrying and careless ps-
tol handling. But by the time the grave
closes over the lifeless form of the last vic
tim the matter is forgotten and the moral
lost sight of until the turn of the next one
comes. There ought to be a sentiment
strong enough to enforce the law Grand
juries and prosecuting attorneys and the
police officials are all derelict in their duty
in failing to enforce the law more strictly
But the greatest dereliction of all is with
the mass of the people who fail to reso-
lutely set their faces against this practice
and do not put the seal of public condem-
nation upon it.

THE NArIoN,s BRIDE.

Grandfather Folsom has been heard
from. He confirms the report that the
president is to marry Frankie nd~eX-
presses his delight at her good Tuck, be-
cause she is a dear, good girl" If the
president was to undertake to marry all
the dear, good girls in the country, he
would soon have his arms full. There
are just million of such girls
in the country. The West is full of them.
We are glad, however, to have Grand
father FoLsoM's testimony. 1t will re-
move the national apprehension that friend
GROVER might be rushing into the jaws of
vi1agoism. The old man Folsom has
done the country a good service with
his voluntary information and proves HIM
self worthy to be the grandfather of this
great nation.

THE GOSPEL OF REST.

The recent breaking down of BOOTH in
New York While acting IAGo to SALvINfs
OTHELLo, following. comparatively, so
closely upon the fatal collapse of McCUL-
LOUGH. and the prostration of KEENE,
calls attention to the significant fact that
these men, always under a great nervous
and physical strain, allowed themselves no
rest. The result was inevitable. 1t is a
demonstration of the oft-repeated state
ment that Americans are too much in
earnest in their daily pursuits; that they
do not know the meaning of rest and con-
seQuently continue burning the candle at
both ends until the end is abruptly reached.
In the cases of the actors mentioned there
had been continuous devotion to profes-
sional duties with little or no recreation for
many years. The same thing is being done
by men in other professions. 1t is con-
tinued despite similar warnings which come
in the shape of sudden prostration OF some
unlucky victim whose constitution is not so
strong as that of his more vigorous but
equally needless neighbor. No good work.

however, are ruthlessly overtaxed, though

THE HIDDEN HAND EXPOSED

Notwithstanding their recent overwhelm.
ing defeat at home the Minneapolis Repub-
licans have taken control of the Republican
municipal campaign in st. Paul. Not sat
isfied with nominating Minneapolis Re
publican for alderman in the Seventh ward,
the Minneapolis Tribune now steps to the
front as the organ of the st. Paul Repub-
licans and assumes the leadership of the
fight. So far as the st. Paul Democrats are
concerned they have no special reason to
object to this arrangement. The
facility with which the Democratic
party recently mopped the earth
with the Minneapolis Republicans gives
assurance that it is going to be an easy
matter to repeat the job here in st. Paul.
But the moral of it is there is some sort of
"a niger in the wood-pile" somewhere.
The Minneapolis bosses would not take
such an active interest in st. Paul alder
manic election unless there was job IN it
which would be of more benefit to the afore-
said bosses than to the city of St. Paul. At
all events it is safest for the people of St.
Paul to keep an eye windward and '.look
leetle out"

sHThe physician called it 'halitosia,' or

my case whenever the breath came in con-
tact with Il fame an explosion was sure to
follow. He said that it was the gaseous re-
suits of the imperfectly digested food; that
the former had the atoms of carbon and
hydrogen so arranged as to give rise to the
presence of carburetted hydrogen, the in
flammable and explosive qualities of which
caused the explosion when mixed with due
proportions of atmospheric air. I never

are at an end, and have been for years.

men to get married and advances strong argu-
ments why they should do So The GLOBE is
of the opinion that it is doing good work in
the vineyard and aiding in the development
of the country. Of course its pursuit is truly
laudabe, and the GLOBE ought to build up
large circulation on that question alone if it
will bring plenty of young women from the
East not for the purpose of marrying the
Western young men, but to let things take
their course No matrimonial bureau but

VEILCHEN.

Did ever the sound of snatch of song,
Whisted in careless tune,
Float in your mind the whole day long,
Taking you back to June?
Did ever the scent OF good cigar.
Blown on the breath of the evening air,
Bring to you memories different by far
Not of tobacco at all, ma chere?
What do you think violet said
In this same magical way?
Nothing at all of the garden bed
Where 1t bloomed until to-day.
A walk in the moonlight, with none to mark,
The clasp of hand that is dear to me;
A passionate thrill, kiss in the dark,
The violet's scent brought near to me.
