sCOLDING POLITICIANS.

The Republican candidates for the con-
gressional nomination in the Third district
are in fomented condition. A few days
ago candidate CHANDLER, in an interview
with the GLOBE, spoke of his opponents as
''disorganizers and bottlers." The word
bother was doubtless transposition of the
word bolter, but it had it's effect all the
same. In yesterdays Republican Edi-
tor HERBERT, who also has some
idea of trying to wear Congressman
STRAITS old shoes, takes a whack
at Mr.. CHANDLER and accuses him of all
sorts of disreputable practices and political
methods. He not only intimates that Can
didate CHANDLER has habit of hanging
around the leading newspaper offices for
the purpose of airing himself through the
public press, but Mr.. HERBERT actually
asserts that his political rival is making
business of loafing around the St. Paul
hotels at government expense and
slandering his opponents to who
ever will lend listening ear. The
irate Red Wing editor and candi-
date then defends himself and the other
maligned candidates from the charge of be-
ing disorganzers and bottlers. The only
kind of bottling that the Red Wing editor
has any partiality for is the desire to bottle
up the kind of personal politics practiced by
his assailant. Mr.. CHANDLER is denounced
as political huckster who trades in petty
offices. We are sorry to see the leading
Republicans of the Third district engage in
such an ugly squabble over nothing. 1t
will be nothing in the end to them, for the
one that wins the nomination will want all
the sympathy he can get after the election
is over, for he will be the worst beaten man
in the state. Our advice to them is to quit
quarreling and prepare for the funeral.

A CONSTITUTIONAL AMEND MENT
The proposed constitutional amendment
relating to change ill the date for inaugu-
rating the president has passed one house
OF congress without opposition and will
probably go through the other i'm the same
way. 1t has met with no opposition from
the simple fact that there was no special
argument that could be used against it, and
it may be said with equal truth there is no
particular argument that can be urged in its
favor. The amendment proposes to change
the date for the inaugural ceremonies from
the 4th of March to the 3Oth of April All
that has been said in favor of the proposed
change is that Inauguration day will come
IN better weather. What special advantage
there will be in this change is difficult to
tell. Probably the hotelkeepers in Wash

larger crowds and will consequently

LESSONS OF THE WAR.

Col. ALECK MCCLURE, the veteran
editor of the Philadelphia Times delivered
the annual address this year at the COM
mencement exercises of Washington and
Lee university in Virginia. Col. Nc
CLURE was a prominent Pennsylvania Re-
publican at the outbreak of the war and a
warm personal friend of President LIN
COLIN. He was also a gallant soldier in
the Union army and had his beautiful
home at Chambersburg destroyed by the
rebel raider, MCCAUsLAND. 1t is a gratify-
ing evidence of the restoration of a national
feeling between the sections when man
with Col. MCCLURE's political record is
honored with an invitation to deliver the
commencement address by the leading uni
versity in the South, the college over
which Gen. LEE presided at the time of his
death, and which Is now presided over by his
eldest son. The subject which Col. Nc
CLURE selected for his Grafton was "The
Lessons of Our Civil War;" and it was an
inciSive review of the causes of the late
sectional strife. His position was
that nationality and not slavery
was the real issue. He showed
that the war was not fought for or against
slavery, but for or against the sovereignty
of the nation as disputed by the sovereignty
of the state. The victory was for the ma
ton over the state, but that does not end
the lesson of the struggle. The pendulum
that is swung in violence will be violent in
its return and will sweep beyond its justly
defined limits. So it is that Col. MCCLURE
points out that the peril which now
menaces the nation is centraliza-
ton. The victory for national SUI
premacy,over state sovereignty, according to
the opinion of the veteran Philadelphia
editor, has given violent swing to the
pendulum which causes it to sweep too far
in the direction of Capitalization. He sees
in the convulsive condition of industry in
the North to-day chiefly a protest against
the common peril to industrial thrift and
national safety that has been born of CEN
traliZation. He argues that while the
supreme national attributes of the general
government are firmly established by the
results of the war. still the sovereignty of
the state is as sacred to-day and as essential to
the enjoyment of free government as it was
in the days Of JEFFERSON. He insists
that the state is not sovereign against the
unity of the republic, but it is sovereign in
all else to assure the happiness and pros
perity of its citizens, except wherein all are
alike restrained by the fundamental law.
But there is supreme sovereignty over both
state and nation-the absolute sovereignty
of the American people. This, of all
others, is the most useful lesson of the war.

WORDS OLE WISDOM.


1t is a matter of regret that the admirable
address delivered by Rev. DR.. CHRISTIE of
this city to the young women of the Albert
Lea seminary last Wednesday evening could
not have reached q wider audience. 1t was
deserving the careful attention of every
young woman OF the land just starting out
to assume the real responsibilities of
life. Treating as it did upon the
Responsibilities of Education.'' it
showed i'll very direct manner
that education should not mean divorcing
from all the practical affairs of life, but a
fuller comprehension of their utility. He
brought out clearly the charge so frequently
made that education Of the present day
means with many simply bitter disgust of
their old manner of life, with it's somewhat
monot0nous, if essential, details and rout-
inc. In fine, that higher education was
apt to bring about such habit of living in
raritied atmosphere that things nearer
earth were utterly ignored. 1t must be adj
mitted that the charge, which DR.. CHRISTIE
simply indicated without indorsing, is in
too many instances true. Girls are apt to
.hlnk that knowledge of domestic affairs
and Of high art are Incompatible, and in
consequence they prefer to ignore the
former entirely while obtaining perhaps
merely veneer of the latter.
There is nothing degrading in knowing
how to bake, sweep and sew, nor are these
practical accomplishments inconsistent with
refinement Of the higher order On the
contrary, she who who with her broadened
culture and systematic knowledge of the
details of domestic life, even il it is never
necessary to put that knowledge into prac-
tice, is by far the completer woman Es-
pecially is this adapsability Of the utmost
value ina country Ike ours, where fortunes
are made and lost with equal ease. and

himself on his knowledge thereof, and never

He appreciates that the payment of the SUBJ

THE NATIONAL GAME.


No better Illustration is needed of the
strong hold which base ball has upon the
Affections of the American people than the
notable game which took place yesterday
at Detroit between the Detroit and Chicago
clubs. And the exhibition of interest is a
healthful one. There are few enough
wholesome sports open to the enjoyment of
the multitude, and there is none which can
afford pleasure to so many persons in an
entirely innocent manner as a we'll played
game of base ball. Americans allow them
selves as rule too few opportunities for
relaxation. A game which, therefore, per-
mits the strain of work and worry to be re-
Taxed even for a time, however short, de-
serves all the encouragement that can be
given it. The game at Detroit was as
pretty an exhibition of scientific
ball playing as could be wished. and
the fact that it was witnessed by Is. 900
people is evidence enough of the interest
taken in the game. 1t was also notable for
curious admiXture of pluck and supersti-
ton. The Chicago club would doubtless
have gone into the game in spiritless way
had it not brought from the Garden City
its mascot" a lad who has invariably
been present at all of its winning games,
and Detroit would have thought its equip
ment incomplete had it not secured mas
cot, too. Despite the fact that two Detroit
catchers were retired with broken fingers,
1t is not alleged that to this fact must be
attributed the loss of the game. Such in
cIdentS are foreseen and provided against
by every well-regulated club. 1t was sim
ply a contest between two magnificent
teams, in which the jewellers by the lake
and their mascot proved their superiority
for the time being. 1t is an encouraging
fact that the St. Paul team seems to have
caught the infection. and even without a
mascot yesterday gave the Minneapolis
team fraternal but thorough thrashlng.
