ST. PAUL AND ROCHESTER,.

The GLOBE is gratifed TO note that the
st. Paul jobbers are making practical ap-
plicatiOn of its suggestions relative TO the
construction of railroads leading from this
city out into various sections of the state.
At the time the ST. Paul jObbers visited the
Rochester fair last fall, the GLOBE called
their attention to this matter and urged that
these lines should not only be built. but
that they should be st. Paul roads exclu-
sively. The trade of some Of the most
productive sections of the state which ought
to have been tributary to st. Paul has
been switched away TO Chicago from
the simple fact that there has been
no railroad communication between
those sections and this city. As will be
seen from report published in another
column, our people have organized move
ment TO open up that fertile section of the
southern part of this state of which
Rochester is the center. and all the inter
mediate country between that place and
this city, by constructing a direct railroad
line from st. Paul to Rochester. This is
the first of several similar movements which
are likely to follow in the near future. and
will be the means of making a region of
country tributary to st. Paul which will
add materially to the permanent prosperity
of the city.

THE CORRUPT BANKER.
investigation of the office OF the
Lancaster Institution.

Special to the Globe
WORCESTER, Mass, Jan. 21.-The grand
jury of the supreme court, which has been
investigating the Lancaster bank cases. re-
ported three indictments to-day, one each
against William III. Mcneil of Lancaster.
the absconding president of the bank, and
Charles j. VeO of Lowell, for larceny. and
the other against DR.. +. VI. Nelson of
Lowell for being an accessory before the
fact of the indictment. No indictment was
found against FOrrestOn, the cashier of the
bank, his case. which is pending before a
lower court, not being presented to the
grand jury. Mcneil not having been cap
tured, the indictment against him was not
read in court, but it is substantially the
same as that against NeO. which alleges
the larceny of property amounting i'm the
aggregate to $40, 600, as follows: Bonds
OF the West Rutland Marble company,
$50, 900; stock of the same company, S25, =
600; bonds of the Herdic PhatOn company.
=, 900; eighty-twO shares of stock i'm the
same company, $4,000; divers promissOry
notes, $50, 600; United States treasury
notes, $685. 900; national bank bills,
S25. 600; gold pieces, $1,000; all the
property of the Lancaster National bank,
OF Clinton. Veo pleaded not guilty to this
Indictment and was remanded TO jail for
trial. DR.. Wilson. who is out on bail, was
called to plead, but he was not in court, and
was defaulted. 1t is understood that he
will appear when his case comes up for
trial. None of the cases will be tried at
this term of court, the district attorney not
being ready. They will come up at the
May term of this court. The indct-
ments were found for larceny instead of
embezzlement, because the latter crime, so
far as it relates to national banks, comes
under the sole jurisdiction of the United
States court.

TIE QUEENS Spec OH.

1t doesn't take long 10 wade through the
queens address TO parliament. II possesses
the virtue of breyity I'm an admirable de-
gree and it is misfortune that the chief
magistrates of the United States do not
AXE the queens addresses as models in the
preparation of their annual messages. Tn
whole ground of British relations is re
viewed with epgrammatic cOnciseness and
yet nothing of public interest is left un-
touched. Her attitude toward Ireland is
just what was expected from the British
throne. The voluntary REIMBURSEMENT OF
power and possessions is no more common
to monarchs than it is to individuals in
private station. Human nature is the same
in king or queen as it Is In
the peasant. Consequently no one ex-
pected the queen TO advise a separation of
any part of her own kingdom. The Irish
people did not expect il, and have based
their hopes on acquiring home rule in OppO-
sitiOn to the will of the throne. In regard
to other measures concerning the welfare
of the British empire and people. the queen
makes some most excellent suggestions
which are credited TO her head and heart.
Particularly is this true of the suggestions
relating To ameliOrating the distressed con-
dition Of the poor the prevention Of acct
dent in mines, the regulation of railway
rates, the codification of the criminal law
and the suggestions with reference 10 i'm

facilities of the empire.

THE CHURCH PROBLEM.

A communication in this mornings
GLOBE from a correspondent who is a
workingman and q church member. gives
some very clear views on the relation of
the church to the wOrkingmen, which con-
tribute to the solution of the problem which
is just now perpleXing the st. Paul clergy
men. 1t looks as if in the discussion of
this subject the fact has been overlooked
that the wOrkingmen of to-day are not
an ignorant class of mudsills who
enjoy no sort of intellectual enter
tainment. On the contrary, the laboring
classes as a rule are an intelligent
body of people with sufficient culture at
least to discriminate between good preach
ing and poor preaching. The idea of rating
the gospel according to the cut of mans
coat is so absurd that il is no wonder that
the laborers resent it. If there is any place
in the world that communism has place
it is in the church. 1t was implied in the
SAvIoR's injunction TO the rich young man
10 sell his goods and give the proceeds to
the poor. 1t was practiced by the print
tive Christians. when each man dis
posed of his estate and laid the
money at the feet of the apostles.
While these precedents do not justify the
doctrine of social communism taught i'm
this day. still they do affirm the principle
that the pulpit ought TO be levelled and the
benefits of religious instruction be made
equally accessible TO all classes of people.
1t is folly TO speak OF free gospel in a
church where the pew-rent amounts TO
Il,
there were no pew-renTs, and church sit
tings were free, il is asking too much of
human nature TO expect the poor man,
with his humblvclad family. 10 force himself
into church building where they will be
surrounded by those who are clothed in all
the glory of SOLOMON. There is a sense
of self-pride and self-esteem in every mans
breast which withholds him from becoming
the subject of voluntary humiliation. If it
is not possible, then, to bring the rich and the
poor of earth into the same tabernacle.
then it does seem that the church should
make an effort 10 give to each class the
same facilities for enjoying intellectual food
as well as a spiritual repast. If it is the
same Fathers bounty they are called upon
to enjoy, and circumstances forbid their sit
ting together at the same table, the very
least that the church militant could do
would be to see that each table is provided
with the same kind of food. This is prac-
teal subject for the church., and the only
way TO deal with it is 10 get down to a
practical standpoint. The most pathetic of
all the facts connected with church work
to-day is that the multitude of common peo-
pie have ceased to hope for help from the
ordinary methods of the pulpit

League ProspecIs.

II. V. Lucas, manager of the st. Louis
League Base Ball club has returned to St.
Louis from New York, where he attended
a meeting of the directors of the league
He was interviewed by a Globe Democrat
reporter and stated that he was not partic-
ularly well pleased with the result of the
meeting. He thinks, however that every
thing will turn out all right. Washington
was bound to be admitted, and succeeded.
Mr.. Lucas did not care to express an opin-
ion as to which other club he is in favor of,
but stated that Milwaukee is the favorite
with him. lie does not like Indianapolis
because it is not sporting city. He thinks
well of Kansas City, but the place he adj
mires most is Cincinnati, but that city will

A WASTED LIFE.

The life of SHELDON. the Connecticut
recluse who was recently found dead i'm the
cave in which he had lived for forty-fiye
years. was touching instance of devotion
to the wife of his youth who died while
yet bride. But the man who was capa-
bic of such resolution was wrong in depriv-
ing society at large of the good which a
symmetrical development of his career
would undoubtedly have brought about.
Grief for lost loved ones is no doubt one of
the most beautiful and holy emotions of
which the human heart is capable, but
there comes time when, with no less ten
der regard for the dead, the demands of the
living must receive attention. No man,
simply because he has supreme control over
his own life, has at the same time the right
to misuse it. There is something of moral
cowardice in giving way before a
great trouble and passively allowing
the world TO pass by without an
effort at self-assertion. The truest and most
comforting sympathy is not to be found
among the dumb denizens of the foresawho
are the only companions of a hermit's life,
but among the warm-hearted fellow toilers
and sufferers who have discovered that a
cheerful endurance of ills which cannot be
escaped is not incompatible with a proper
feeling of sentiment, respect or reverence
and who know by experience that
"Laugh and the world laughs with you.
Weep and you weep alone"

The young women who are pursuing COL

participated i'll a riot two years ago in that
county, when white man named WYATT

Another of the rioters had been convicted
OF murder and hanged. The affair created
a great sensation in Southern Arkansas at
the time, and ever since strong efforts have
been made to secure their pardOns on the
ground that the wholesale convictions were
unwarranted by the facts, and that the
terms of sentence were excessive. The
sentences ranged from five To fifteen years.

PAPER FOR SILVER.

While members of congress are discuss
ing the silver question in the halls of ma
tiOnal legislation the people of the North
west are discussing IL through the columns
of the GLOBE. We publish to-day a COM
munication from a gentleman who is the
cashier of bank, but who is, nevertheless,
an ardent friend of the silver dollar. lie
takes the advanced position that the gov
eminent would be justified in suspending
the coinage of all metals and issuing an ex-
elusive paper currency based on gold and
silver bullion. and that, too, at
the value of each as now fixed
by law, and making the same full legal
tender. and taxable as all other property.
Our correspondent is not alone in this opin-
ion. The same views have been presented
and argued by some of the most conservative
tinanciers and statesmen of the country. An
objection more frequently urged against the
silver dollar is the Inconvenience of its
weight and bulk. This objection would be
removed by issuing paper money eXclu-
Sively. But the sight of the silver dollar is
SO attractive to the eyes of the average
American citizen. and the sound of its mu-
steal clink so grateful TO their ears. il will
be a long time before they agree to surrender
it, even though a more convenient substi-
tute be found for il.
