THE YOUNGERS.

In reply to a correspondent who wants to
know why the GLOBE has had nothing 10
say in reference to the pardon of the
YOUNGER brothers, We simply desire to
say that the GLOBE looked upon the prOpo-
stion as too ridiculous to discuss. 1t would
be just as easy to convince the Christian
world that JUDAS IsoARIoT was a sanity
martyr as to induce the people of Mime
sofa to believe that the YeuNGRRs deserved
executive clemency. In to-day's issue We
publish clippings from number OF our
state exchanges which show that the public
sentiment is overwhelmingly against the
proposition to extend pardon to the ban
dts, and in the face of such a sentiment it
is not reasonable to suppose that the state
will ever have a governor who would dare
to sign his name to a pardon, whatever his
feelings as an individual might be- 1t is
doubtful whether even eX-Gov. MARSHALL,
who is manifesting so much sympathy for
the YouNGERs, would be so indifferent to
such an emphatic and universal expression
of public opinion as to issue an order for
their release if he was now governor of the
state. In view of these facts the GLOBE
has failed to see any use in discussing the
subject More than that, the GLOBE is of
the opinion that the time Will never come
in Minnesota. and ought never to come.
when there will be anything like respect
able display of public feeling in behalf Of
pardon for the notorious robbers. The
quality Of mercy can never be so strained
as to eXtinguish the justice of their punish
meht They are richly deserving all they
getting, and more too. The YOUNGER
boys were intelligent enough to know right
from wrong. When they entered upon
their career of crime they knew full well
the consequences of their action, Two
careers opened before them on the threshold
Of life. One was career of honorable man
hood and good citizenship, the other a
career of crime and autlawry. They de-
liberately chose the latter 1t is no eXtenu-
alton of their offense to say they were of
gentle birth and respectable families.
1t is an aggraVatiOn of their
crime. If they were we4l-bred their
opportunities for becoming respectable
citizens were better than If they had de-
scended from bandit ancestry, If they
are turned loose OH society. ali the probable
tiles are that the old story of the dog re-
turning to his vomit will be repeated. Sew
enteen hundred years of Imprisonment could
not atone for the crimes that are justly
rhargeable to these red-handed robbers.
The ends of justice and the welfare of So
riety are better secured by their retention
In the Minnesota state prison. They are
reported to be well-behayed, hard working
men at Saltwater. That is more than they
ever were before. 1t is better TO let well
enough alone,

A GUEST I'm TROUBLE.

''i'll take card.'
The speaker stood in tile doorway of
brilliantly illumined mansion. 1t was
night. But upon the summer sky shope
the outlines of the structure with as much
distinction as the figure of the house-fy is
traced upon dish of whipped cream
when temporarily detained in his flight.
The many windows, from which streamed
Hood OF light, were plainly marked be-
tween the darkness OF the Intervening walls.
Visible within the mansion were grand
apartments, luxuriantly furnished. The
interior arrangement of the rooms. and the
absence of tables, chairs, and furniture
generally, gave the impression to the
thoughtful beholder that ball. fete or
similar social entertainment was near at
hand. Soft, mellow light fell from the
many colored globes upon the deserted
room, and bathed in various tints the white
canvas, covering the heavy carpets the
walls and ceilings.
Without the house scores of Chinese
lanterns hung from cords suspended be-
tween trees, and gave light and beauty to
the garden and lawn. The twanging of tbe
violin and bass VOL and the running of the
scale Oh the wind instruments indicated
that the members of the band were tuning
up, preparatory to playing the dancing
numbers. The band struck up popular
waltz tune as numerous guests came up the
front walk and into the house. The par
lors were no longer deserted. neither was
the lawn. A scene of animation followed
as the gay dancers and promenaders filed
apartments and the lawn.
A late guest arrived His black evae
snapped with anticipation of the pleasure
of soon mingling with the merry throng as
he touched the electric door-bell.
Dashlng through the house in resnonsa 70
the bell came diminutive girl with IrelanS
plainly marked upon her honest and ioiiv
face. She looked at the guest and ss:a: way

they get sick. And it is no wonder that the
majority of citizens are so averse to serving

white HASN'T Combined.

Chatteld Democrat
Mr.. Lovelys friends are accusing Mr. White
Of combining with Mr.. Dunnell We can
positively assure all that this is not true.
Mr.. White is not to blame for work done six
years ago by Mr.. Lovely against Mr.. Dunnel
and if Mr.. Lovely finds now that the account
is still open for settlement he certainly can
not drag Mr.. White into the matter. If Mr.
Dunnell's friends do fight him, what else
could he expect? Mr.. White has acted manly
and fairly through the canvass so far. He is
a candidate for the nomination. He has the
people on his side, and bis work in congress
is likely to give him another term. 1t is an
undisppted fact that he can poll more votes
in this district than any other man named for
the place.

ably be passed.

Mark III. Dunnell is beaten! That's the
long and short of it. BY censurable and de-
plorable timidity and half-heartedness the
golden moments of the canvass were frittered
away, and the vantage-ground of the district
captured by the Albert Lea pretender. Pub
lie sentiment, about evenly divided between
Owatonna brains and Chattield butterine,
made the sandwich for Lovely the opportun-
1ty OF his life. And he has embraced it. He
would be a fool ii he hadn't. And now the
butteripe worshipers can sit and suck their
thumbs. The swearing time has come, the
saddest Of the year. Sit and cuss it out! 1t

A wild Cow in a Bedroom

At Bodega. Cal, short time since ma
lassoed wild cow and was trying to drive
her before him, he being on horseback,
when the animal broke the lariat and made
dash for liberty. A large house being
near, she directed her course toward it.
The front door was open and the COW made
her way upstairs, down narrow hallway
into a bedroom out of the window and on
to the roof of the porch, from which eleva-
ton she leaped to the ground, striking with
such violence as to break her neck and
terminate her earthly career.
