NOT A sCANDAL-MoNGER.

Our usually good-natured evening con-
temporary seems to have unnecessarily lost
its temper over the discovery of what it
supposes is "a mares nests in the suit
brought by the city government against the
Burlington road. 1t is little singular that
the Dispatch should so fret and fume over
an imaginary "nigger in the wood-pile,"
when it admits that it has no evidence of
the existence of the aforesaid cOlOred indi-
vidual, nor is there any proof that there is
even a wood-pile, beyond some sort of an
underlined and indefnable inherent moral
assurance of the fact. While the GLOBE
denies the right of the Dispatch to
require it TO testify i'm case
which probably has no existence except
in the excited imagination of a contempor-
airy whose innate moral sensibilities are so
painfully wounded, still it is will
ing to waive all technical objections and to
say frankly that il has no knowledge OF
any sort of ring or syndicate connected
with the city government which is prose
cutting or aiding or abetting the prosecution
of the injunction against the Burlington
company. We repeat what we have here
tOfore said, that while we are not sure that
the city government has not erred in the
matter, we are confident that the city au
thorities were prompted by the purest
motives and had no desire except to protect
the interests Of the city. 1t is a well-known
fact that the city is responsible for any
damages which may be incurred by the work
that the Burlington company is doing. 1t is
also well known that the Burlington prom
ised to indemnify the city against damages.
but failed to keep its promise. The work
was going ahead vigorously, and still the
company refused to come TO taw and enter
into a written agreement. Under the cir
cumstances it was absolutely essential that
the municipal government should adopt
prompt measures to bring the Burlington
company mp to fulfillment Of its agree
ment. Whether or not they pursued the
best course to effect this is a question open
to discussion. At the same time there is
no reason to impugn their motives i'm the
matter So far as the GLOBE is concerned
it prefers TO attribute honorable intentions
to the conduct of all men unless it has
positive proof TO the contrary. Nor does it
feel justified. in the absence of proof, to rely
on its ''inOral beliefs to assail the charac-
ter of any individual. If our evening con-
temporary wants TO adopt that kind of a
policy, then, so far as the GLOBE is con-
cerned, our neighbor shall have the field to
! itself

Large Land sale.

The executive committee of the Northern
Pacific Railroad company has sold the COM
pany's real estate in st. Paul for $3.50, 600.
1t may not be generally known that the
company acquired large holdings OF real
property in ST. Paul many years since, alta
! comparatively low figure, for terminal pur-
poses. Afterwards ST. Paul assigned
ground to the several roads terminating
here for the union depot. The Northern
Pacific having no further need Tor the real
estate alluded TO offered the same for sale,
and at the meeting on Jan. - last accepted
bid Of $3.50, 900. The executive commit
/ tee has recommended that the proceeds Of
| the sale be devoted to the cancellation or
( corresponding amount OF the hrst mortgage
bonds Of the company. 1t has been sug-
gested that this $3.50, 600 might be used Tor
the construction of the tunnel on the Cas-
cade division. as the sum will about cover
the cost of that work. but as funds have
already been provided for that purpose il
was deemed most advantageous to use the
money for the lessening of the outstanding
obligations of the company.
The report of the sale comes from New
York, and the most careful inquiry of local
officials fails to secure any further mforma-
ton of the deal. The opinion, however.
/ prevails that the sale was made TO the Chi
cago. Burlington 81 Northern company.
which was trying some time ago to secure
! ground for yard room. When President

stated 10 a GLOBE representative that he
was arranging for tire purchase OF some
| property for yard room at point betwe
the two cities. lie refused To state where
/ the land was located or who the property
/ belonged to- His reticence was no doubt
because of a desire on the part Of the
/ Northern Pacific TO have the pending deal
/ kept quiet. 1t is known that the Northern
/ Pacific possessed property near the shops OF
1 the st. Paul IL Northern Pacific road, and
I this must be the land that was sold. An
other suppOsitiOn is that the ST. Paul *
/ Northern Pacific might be the purchaser.
/ With its line between the two ci les il will
require more terminal room, and might have
! secured this from the Northern Pacific.

GREECE'S GRIT.

The sun has not yet set on the Isles of
Greece. There must be good deal of vi
tally in little kingdom which can bristle
up its back in the spunky way that Greece
treats England's proposed interference.
There is some of the spirit of Marathon
and Thermopyale still left. There is MIL
TIADEs sort of ring in the reply of the
Greek government to the note Of the Mar
quis of SALISBURY, in which it is declared
that Greece reserves perfect freedom of ac-
ton. 1t is very evident to the English
mind that it is not King THEEBAw the
British government is now fooling with.
Greece may be little, but she is aw-
fully spunky. Still it looks like
reckless courage for little kingdom
like Greece to set itself up in
opposition to the continental powers. APP
parently it will be an easy matter to crush
the puny kingdom and destroy its armies
and fleets. But it may not be so in reality.
In the first place. the spunk that Greece is
displaying will excite the admiration of the
world and to a certain extent enlist its SYM
pathy. And then, too, there will be a SEN
tlmental reviving of memories of the heroic
age, when the human race put forth a
strength and glory until then unknown,
which will be an aid to Greece in its present
struggle. And then, too, the fact that
Greece is arrayed against Turkey will be
strength to the Greek cause. There is no
room for the Turk and his Mohammedan
faith in modern civilization. 1t is of the
highest Importance to the world at large
that the sick man should die, and if Greece
is to be the instrument of destruction then
she cannot let slip the dogs of war a minute
too soon.

ANEwsPAPER DISPUTE.

Among the many interesting newspaper
incidents of the day not the least amusing
is the heated controversy going on between
those brilliant lights of New York journal
ism, the Sun and World. as to the author
ship of the familiar proverb about money
beng the root of all evil. With its usual
confidence in whatever it asserts the Sun
sticks TO it that King SOLOMON deserves
the distinction of authorship, while the
editor of the World, who has the advantage
of access to the congressional library, adj
duces authority to prove that SAINT PAUL
wrote the proverb in dispute. The other
New York papers preserve a discreet
silence and refuse to be drawn into the con-
troversy. While the Tribune ''ain't saying

The Second Day OF the Long Race on
the BICYCLES.

During the evening considerable excite
ment was elected by the contest between
Hardwick and Shaw. They continually
spurted for advantage, but Hardwck had
tine best of it. Eek made the fastest fifty
miles during the day, but in the evening he
pulled out of the race, yet he will together
with Mile ArmaindO give daily exhibitions
of bursts of speed during the week
for the benefit of the patrons of the tourna-
ment. SchOck remained in the saddle from
the time of the start until o'cOck in the
afternoon and he defeated the champion
ship record, covering during the day III
miles. Mile ArmaindO, the champion,
made only 145 miles the second day of her
six-day race. At $50 in the evening
SchOck and Snyder eollided and both took
a header. Snyder injured his arm pretty
badly, but was able to continue the struggle
Schock was blamed by many for the acct
dent Woodsde was off the track during
the twelve hours, one hour and twenty-five
minutes, Schock only thirty minutes, Sny-

were each off an hour and half. Grant
Bell appeared on the track and made five
miles. He was greeted with enthusiastic
applause from his friends and admirers. and
on Friday evening he will appear again.

the day closed the record stood
Schock, 338 miles; WoOdside, 1876 miles;
Snyder 296 miles and laps; Hardwick, 252

New YORK, Jan. 26.-The case of Gen.

tlnued to-day. Monmouth b. Wilson was
again on the stand. He swore his testi-
mony given before the investigating COM
mittee of the state exculpating Gen Shaler.

mony 10 shield the general, who was
friend. and that it was not until the states
prison stared him in the face that he CON
cluded to tell the truth. EX-MayOr Edison.
one of the members of the armOry site
board with Gen. Shaler. testified as TO the
considerations which had prevailed with
him In choosing the sites in connection with
the purchase of which the bribery is
alleged. In general he thought them the
most available sites offered. Gen. Shaler
did not seem especially anxious to have
these sites chosen. At the close of the testi-
mony for the prosecution, Col. Bliss, on
behalf of Gen. Shaler, moved that the
judge instruct the jury TO render verdict
OF acqulttal without any evidence in rebuff
tai on the ground that the only inculpating
evidence was the uncOrrobOrated testimony
of a self-cOnfeSSed perjurer. Judge Bar
rett, however, declined to 90 to that extent,
though he said that Wilson's evidence would
need confederation in order to Justify the
Jury in conviction.

Northwestern,s Extension.

The correct plat of the route of the
Wyoming Central railway, an extension of
the Fremont. Elkhorn * Missouri Valley
railway. otherwise the Chicago 81 North
western, through the northern and central
portion of Wyoming Territory, has been
filed at the land Office in Cheyenne. The
road follows the course of the Running
Water TO a point near the head waters of
Shawnee creek. Thence il will run i'm a
southerly direction along the west side of
the Shawnee, striking the Platte about a
mile and a half from the mouth of the
creek. 1t then follows the Platte to the
Fort Fetterman military reservation. The
plat thus definitely locates the line. showing
only few changes from the course origin
ally decided upon. The right of way is Sc
cured by congress. and it is evident that all
preparations are being made 10 push the
road during the coming summer.
