GROWING ORDER.
Something OF the PafriarchaI Circle
"A Regiment 10 be Organized.


A Regiment TO be Organized.
At the annual meeting of the supreme
temple of the Patriarchal circle, held in this
city in July last, little was known of the
order. Then the qualification for circle
membership was membership i'm a lodge of
Odd Fellows, although the United States
Grand lodge of Odd Fellows would not
recognize the circle. Since the gathering
here the Grand lodge has recognized the
circle, and now any reputable person is
eligible to membership. The fine appear
ance which the Patriarchs made on the Occa-
sion of their parade will be recOllected. The
meeting here seemed to acquaint the people
of the North west with the nature and
character Of the organization, and the order
has had remarkable growth during the
past few months. The circle is 'semi-milI-
tary and fraternal in its nature, having for
its object the betterment of its members in
a social, moral and intellectual sense.
There Is also an insurance plan connected
with it, which, however. is optional. Tenn
pies formed in Red Wing. Saltwater,
Mortified and other places have been
growing rapidly. and at the present rate of
progress the order promises to take fore
most rank in tins section, If not in this

Special to the Globe.

Special 10 the Globe.
WASHINGTON, April 6.-An assertion
that the president and his cabinet weigh
nearly ton would seem at first appearance
rather startling one. but it is not so far
from the fact. The talk about the physical
condition Of Secretary Manning brings out
the fact that he weighed at the time of his
attack, 225 pounds. He had gained over
twenty-five pounds since he came into his
position at the treasury. The president is
not much behind him in weight. They are
very much alike in figure, height and gen.
eral physical peculiaritieS. There are sew
e-al of the cabinet members who must
weigh nearly 200 pounds each. Secretary
Lamar is tall, broad-shouldered and well
developed physically. and must tip the
beam at about that figure. Mr.. Garland is
big man, very tall and muscular. He is
not far from 200 pounds In weight. Mr..
Bayard is not far behind him, neither Is
Mr.. Endicott. MeSsrS. Villas and Whitney
must average up about It's pounds each.
Put the eight men-the president and his
cabinet-On the scales and you will find
they do not fall many hundred weight be-
low ton.

THE MINNEAPOLIS ELECTION.

THE MINNEAPOLIS ELECI1ON'
The great Democratic victory in Mime
apolis yesterday was, as the GLOBE pre-
dicted it would be, triumph of manly
methods over sham deceptive policy
which promised everything and meant moth
ing The Democratic candidate was plain
Outspoken man, who said exactly what he
meant and always meant what he said.
The Democratic platform was frank ex-
preston of liberal ideas without any at
tempt at concealment or effort to
evade any issues. The issues be-
tween the parties were fairly and
squarely presented on the Democratic side
and the people rendered their verdict ac-
cordingly. The defeated candidates made
the best fight they could under the circum-
stances, and will doubtless bow in a spirit
of cheerful submission to the inevitable.
In this hour of eXultation the successful
party would do well to remember the re-
sponsibilty which has been thrust upon it,
Democratic hearts should not be expanded
with such a feeling of eXuberance over the
great victory as to be unmindful of the
fact that with the accession OF
power comes the grave response
bility of executing the trust committed to
the successful party in such manner as to
win public appreciation and to show that
the confidence of the people has not been
misplaced, The character of the gentle
men elected on the Democratic ticket in
Minneapolis yesterday is a guarantee that
Democratic principles will prevail under
the new administration, which means a
,;as, L.
and peace and prosperity TO the city.
The victory itself is a rebuke to that
pharasaical class of people who usurp to
themselves all the righteousness of earth.
and can see nothing good in Others who
hold more liberal opinions than themselves.
The victory is more that a rebuke, it is a
complete overthrow of that other class who
under the guise of over-righteousness seek
to worm themselves into position where
they can more effectively do the devils
work. There is always a class of politi-
clans in every community who are etenally
ranting around about reform, who, them
selves, are more needy subjects Of refor-
nation than anybody else. This class OF
politicians seemed to be unusually numer-
GUS in Minneapolis and somehow or other
it seems that nearly all of them had at
tached themselves to the Republican party
and were the lOudest in their advocacy OF
the election of the Republican candidates.
The phenomenal result of yesterdays work
will put quietus on these gentlemen which
will serve to keep them in the background
for many years to come. Another lesson
of the victory is that the day is rapidly
passing away when money is to be poten-
tial factor in politics. Taking it altogether
the result in Minneapolis yesterday gives
cause for sincere congratulation to all lover:

WASHINGTON, April professionally
you hear an inquiry as to when congress is
going to adjourn. The general opinion is
that if the weather does not get too hot
congress will be here in August. OF
course, the tariff bill will claim good deal
of time, and as but two of the appropriation
bills are yet passed it seems hardly proba-
bic that an adjournment will be had before
August. 1t is a curious fact that when a
congress gets past June it seems likely to
run until August Ten congresses have adj
journed in June, only eight in July and ten
in August. Three have adjourned in April,
but that was good while ago, when they
did not know anv better; six in May, one
in September, one in October and one in
November.

GOODE ON TELEPHONES.
The Solicitor General Continues
His Pan-Electric Testimony.


WASHINGTON, April 6.-Solicitor Gen.
eral GOode was before the Pan Electric in
vestigating committee again to-day, and on
cross-examination by Mr.. Ranney stated
that he was not aware of using any undue
or unusual haste in ordering the suit
against the Bell company, neither had he
given any thought to the motives of the
attorneys who offered TO appear in the suit
without compensation from the govern
ment In fact he did not regard them as
counsel for the government, but simply as
assistants to Attorney General McCTeary of
Memphis. If he had known of the attor-
new generals connection with the Pam
Electric company, and an application for a
suit had been made, his action would have
been the same as il was.

Mr.. Willard inquired IL the witness could
recall a single case where patent suit had
been ordered without reference OF the
papers to the interior department. The
witness could not, but wished to state that
the practice was merely one OF courtesy and
comfy. The recommendation of the in
terror department was not binding upon the
department of justice. and there were no
legal requirements in the matter. The wit
ness said he had directed the discontinuance
of the Memphis suit because he knew II

ENGLISH CABINET RUMORS.
Two Members of the Cabinet Reported
TO Have Resigned,
With n Counter Announcement That
Troubles Are Settled.
The Gsvernment,s Dilemma.

LONDON. April cit was stated in the
lobby of the house of commons this evening
that Messrs. Mundella and ChiIders had re-
signed their seats in the cabinet. 1t was
expected that Messrs. Fowler, Heleage and
BrOadhurSt would secede from the govern
ment on Thursday. The consensus of Opin-
ion was that the present government is
doomed. The latest information, however,
Is that the cabinet feud has temporarily
abated. Mr.. Gladstone modlies his pro-
pOsais regarding customs control by giving
the English parliament the right to veto
all fiscal enactments of Ireland providing
an imperial receiver shall collect customs
and excise, and making imperial claims

enues. The malcontents consequently
withhold their designations. Mr.. Glad
stone Is thoroughly supported in all his pro-
pOSals by Earl Granville, Earl ROseberry.

Zimmerman. Sir Farrer Herschell does
not participate in the discussion on home
rule, but he upholds the proposed land bill
and has relieved Mr.. Gladstone of drafting
the latter scheme. Mr.. Gladstone Is IN TO
bust health and good voice and Is
CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS.

ported that Lord Salisbury has persuaded
Lord Harrington to move that the house re-
fuses to consider Mr.. Gladstone's bill.

to the late William L. Forster i'm the house

and deep regret that is felt In the loss of so

To the Editor of the Globe:
VIII you be kind enough TO state the pro-
visions of the Gladstone Irish land purchase
bill? Please answer through the GLOBE
ERIN Go BRAGH.
Minneapolis, April 8.
If Mr.. GLADSTONE would take the
GLOBE into his confidence, as he ought to
do, and unfold TO us his plans for home
government in Ireland, we would only be
too glad to answer our correspondents in
quiry. But until he has made public his
scheme of home rule we are left TO con-
lecture what his plans are. When it was
given out that GLADsToNE'S scheme
was to give three acres and
COW TO every Irish peasant
the British people went into commissions
and two members of the cabinet immedi-
ately resigned with the determination to
form a new party. 1t was soon developed
that the frightened retiring cabinet officers
had SHE'D too soon. as it became evident
that the so-called appropriation scheme was
no part of the GLADSTONE plan. AS a re-
suit of this discovery all the loose talk
about defeating the ministry on the land
scheme and appealing to the people to upset
the GLADSTONE pernicious policy has
ceased. and the British people are getting
down to a sensible discussion of the prob
| able purport of the GLADSTONE plan. The
schemes proposed in the Freeman's Journal
of last Thursday. probably comes nearer
what the GLADSTONE plan will be when it
is made known than anything that has been
guessed at. The Freeman Journals scheme
proposes the establishment of an Irish par
| Lament, and provides that if at any time
any owner of land I'm Ireland shall desire to
sell out he may apply to the home govern
ment, under the law, and obtain an ap-
pTaSement upon basis to be fixed by the
bill, to be arrived at by capitalization of the
rent. In such case the British govern
ment is to advance the money for the pur-
chase, taking from the Irish home gov
eminent a guarantee of 81 per cent.
interest. Then the proposed plan is to let
the home government resell or let the prop
erty and collect the price or rent at per
cent, leaving margin sufficient to pay the
cost of collection and so on. When the
tenant has paid back to the Irish home
government the original cost of the land he
is to own 1t. Such in substance will prob
ably be the extent of the GLADSTONE Irish
land purchase scheme. The probabilities
are, however, that when once home rule is
established in Ireland real estate will take
such boom that there will be but few
transfers through the government.
