PILLsBURY ACADEMY.
Arrangements Completed for
Baptist School.

Baptist School.
Special to the Globe.
OwAToNNA, Sept. 2.-Owatonna has
at last secured the permanent location
of Pillsbury academy, which, in time,
will be made a college. Hon. George A.
Pillsbury was in the city Saturday and
all the arrangements were completed.
Five acres of VIM. "a. Kelley's property
which adj0ins the property owned by
the Plllsbury academy were bought for
$4,000 by the committee appointed to
choose site. Upon this Mr.. Pillsbury
will erect the main building of Pills
bury academy. his magnificent gift to
the Baptist society of the state, which
will cost not less than $50, 900. The new
building will be placed on the site
where Mr.. Kelley'S residence now stands.
The buildings there now, having been re-
served, will all be removed by Mr..
Kelley as soon as possible. The site is
one of the prettiest places in the city.
1t is situated on hill and commands a
good view of the city. The grounds for
the new building were all staked out
Saturday and the contract of eXcaVatlng
was let to j. c. Ault, of this city. The
eXcavating will be commenced as soon
as Mr.. Kelley removes his buildings,
and the foundation will be put in this
fall. The plans of Warren B. Dunnell,
of Minneapolis, have been adopted.
The building will be 75X122 feet, three
stories high with the basement. In
the basement there will be a gymna-
SUM, chemical room and engine room.
The second floor will be divided into
recitation rooms, and on the third floor
there will be the main hall, which it is
estimated will seat 600 people. There
are nine recitation rooms in all. MIR.
PillSbury intends to make this academy
one of the highest grade academies in
the United States.

ONE SIDE OF 1T.
A Gentleman VINO Both Defends
and Criticises Harrison.


and Criticises Harrison.
To the Editor of the Globe.
In the GLOBE of Saturday you say in
substance that Candidate Harrison has
never denied that ne said 81 a day was
enough for a wOrkingman. At the time
he is charged with having made this
declaration | was a resident of Indian
apolis and familiar with the facts sur
rounding the controversy in which it is
claimed he made il, and do not believe
he made such a statement. What he
did probably say was that at would be
better that the men (referring to the
railroad strikers) should go to work
at 81 day rather than remain
idle" If he had gone further and
SAID: 'It would also be better that the
railroad companies should pay the men
living wages rather than have such
strikes occur" he would at least have
shown fairness between two cOntending
parties, and would not to-day have such
bitter opposition from railroad men in
his own state. He was, at the time,
acting as one of committee of confer
ence with view of bringing about an
end to an unfortunate strike, and was
appointed by a committee of citizens to
act as an arbitrator. But it has always
been one of his peculiar characteristics
to stand aiOof and at distance from the
common people; he has kept himself so
far away from them that he could not
have sympathy with them, and this pc
culiar trait in his organization asserted
itself so strongly upon that occasion
that he could only see the interests of
the railroad magnates, whose associate
and attorney he was. INDIANIAN.

Died From Injuries.

Special to the Globe
LA CROSSE, Wis, Sept. 24.-Two
blows on the head of Samuel Buchanan
last Friday night with billiard cue in
the hands of Fred Graman resulted in
the death OF the assaulted man yester-
day afternoon. The trouble grew out of
the discharge of Buchanan from job
of mason work and the hiring OF a
couple of young Bohemian brothers,
Joseph and Fred Hartleck, at lower
wages. The men had quarrel early in
the evening, and later, when Gro
man and the Hartleck boys were talk
ing together, Buchanan supposed they
were talking about him and made a
drunken assault upon Groman, who had
a billiard cue in his hand. and immedi-
ately assaulted his would-be assailant.
The authorities are blamed for allowing
the injured man to lie in Jail for several
hours without finding out his condition,
but nothing could have been done for
him, as he retained consciousness but
few minutes. The Hartleck boys have
been arrested.

A MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.
A Railway Brakeman Is Shot
While on q Spree.

Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, Mimi, Sept. A.-Another
shocking affair occurred late last night,
and Jack Smith, brakeman on the
Iron Range road, received the benefit
thereof. 1t seems that party of sew
eral, of whom Smith was q central
figure, visited several houses of ILL.,
fame at the point, and all became more
or less gloriously full. Leaving the
house of Kittie Nixon, Smith and two
companions saw man standing in the
street, and started toward him, when,
without much ado, the man pulled a
32-caliber revolver and emptied three
shots, one cutting Smiths upper lip, a
second striking him in the leg, and third
shot entering his left side just above
the kidney and which is liable to prove
fatal. The injured man was conveyed
to the hospital, but refuses to say much
other than he thinks the shooting was a
mistake, as he did not know the man
andhad no trouble with him. His stories
conflict somewhat, but the man who did
the shooting cannot be found, and there
is considerable mystery surrounding the
whale affair

HOW ABOUT II?

"You Democrats can't hurt us with
your Doodle cry. The people of this
state are accustomed to lavish use OF
money in elections, and they don't
scare bit at it,"
The above remark was made to the
GLOBE by prominent Republican pol
itician. who took an active part in the
late Republican state convention as a
partisan of the winning candidate.
Is if true?
Are the people of this state so accus-
toned to a lavish use of money in pol
itics that they are Indifferent as to
whether candidate buys his nOmina-
ton or not?
This is a good time to settle the ques-
ton.
The GLOBE does not believe it to be
true, and will not believe it. We know
that Minnesota has been a Republican
state of long standing, and while we
are inclined to think that some of the
Republican leaders are not averse to
the use of corrupt methods in politics,
we believe the rank and file OF the Re-
publican party to be honest.
They now have the opportunity to
prove il.

AFRAID TO TALK.

We are still waiting to hear from Mr..
MERRIAM.
1t has been suggested to him that it
would be the courteous thing to do, to
extend an invitation to Mr.. WILSON to
meet him in joint debate.
He hasn't acted upon the suggestion.
He has been asked if he would ac-
cept a challenge from Mr.. WILSON for
public discussion of state and national
issues.
He hasn't even intimated that he
would.
Is Mr.. MERRIAM afraid to discuss
the issues of the campaign? If so, his
party ought to take him down and put
up a man who has convictions and the
courage to speak them.
1t has never been so before that a
Republican candidate for governor
was afraid to talk to the peO-
pie, or to be seen by them. 1t
was well known that Gov. MCGH4L
was no orator; but for all that, when he
was nominated two years ago, he
buckled on his armOr and went into
the fight at the head of his columns.

TARIFF SLAVERY.

The people of the country are begin
ming to realize the wrongs they suffer
through high tariff robbery, and are
earnest in their determination to eman-
cipate themselves from its slavery.
Tariff reform has become an overriding
and absorbing necessity. The people
are taxed beyond endurance, and as
they see more clearly into the causes
and character of their burdens they are
resolute in their determination to have
more equity and fairness in their ad-
justment. That it is the situation.
The Democratic party offers the relief
the country asks for. 1t has had the
sagacity and courage to see and seize
the tide. From tradition and from
principle the party is in SYM
pathy with the issue. 1t only
remains for Democrats to give
force and effect to their convictions.
There can be no hating or turning
back. Neither the fear of the week
kneed nor the mutiny of malcOntents
can turn the Democratic party from its
course. 1t stands for a reformed reve-
nue. tariff. 1t holds that unnecessary
taxation is unjust taxation; that the peo-
ple-the farmers, mechanics and labor
ers-have rights which the millionaires
and the monOpolists are bound to re-
spect; that among these are the rights
to buy cheap clothing, cheap machinery
and cheap fuel in an open, free market,
where the purchasing power of a dollar
will realize its full equivalent in the
neceSSaTIes of life.
No party could occupy better posi-
ton than this. 1t is in sympathy with
the demands of the country and the
| needs of the hour.

CASTLEWooD., Dak., Sept. "a
Charles E. Armstrong, manager of the
st. Charles hotel, and agent of the
Porter Milling company at this place,
went to Watertown last Wednesday
evening and has not been heard of or
seen since. He was doing good bust
ness and enjoyed the respect and
esteem of very large number of

his mysterious departure, as he had no
domestic trouble and financially was
considered perfectly reliable. Investi-
CATION of his books shows shortage of
about 5000 bushels of wheat, and he
also secured in the neighborhood OF
5000 in money. He has always been

what has already been divuiged
as he was man of no bad habits.
Armstrong is thirty-five years old, OF
medium height, weighs $50 pounds, has

Special to the Globe
WATERLOO, To-, Sept. 24.-For many
presidential years James Hustled, a
prominent lawyer of this city, and Will
liam Whitney, well-t0-do Bennington
township merchant, supported the Re-
publican presidential candidates two
years ago owing to the Republican par
tvs position on the liquor question. Mr..
Hustled voted for the Democratic gubcr-
Material candidate this fall because
he is not in sympathy with the high tar
itf platform of the Republican party, he
will vote for Cleveland and Thurman.
Mr.. Whitney has always supported
Republican nominees on county, state
and national tickets, but is now actively
working for the Democratic ticket. He
believes big tariff is injuries TO the
farming interests of the West. A large
number of voters, hitherto Republicans,
are Wavering, and don't know yet how
they will vote; bnt changes both ways
will be more numerous this fall than
ever before, partly owing to the growing
sentiment in favor of low tariff in
agricultural committees but the major
ity are men who honestly believe that
the present prOhibitory laws are work
ing injury to the state. The fact will
not down that each new move of in
creased severity in support of prohibit
ton makes many Democratic votes in
this city. There are no less than twenty

sional men, Republicans, who will work

JAMESTOWN, OAK, Sept. 24.-The
StutSman county Democratic cOnyen-
ton was held this afternoon. Ten dele
gates were elected to represent the
county in the legislative convention at
Darlington, Sept. 26, and partial
county ticket was placed in the field.
Nominations were: Treasurer, S. K.
McGinn; register, George Lutz; district
attorney, Johnson Nickins; Judge Of
probate, w. p. Farrell; assessor, c. r.
Flint; coroner, +. E. ThOrold. No
nominations for auditor, surveyor,
or county commissioner were made, the
county central committee. There are
two Democratic attorneys in the
county, but neither would accept
the nomination for district attor-
ney. Mr.. NickinS wanted a
Democratic endorsement to aid him
in securing the Republican nomination
several weeks hence. 1t is understood
that he or his friends had prepared a
resolution eulOgiStic of his abilities and
recommending that no nomination be
made but that the central committee be
empowered to place his name on the
Democratic ticket when printed. For
some reason this resolution did not get
into the convention, and the convention
shortened the programme by simply
making him their nominee. NickenS is
also candidate for nomination on the
Republican ticket, and his op-
pOnents and the friends of d.
A. Frye, another Republican candi-
date for the same position, are en-
deavoring to make capital out of the
fact that he is the Democratic nominee.
Republicans here are much surprised
over Nickens' connection with the Dem
ocrats, as he has always claimed to be
an invincible Republican. Two years
ago the Democrats nominated full
county ticket and elected five of their
candidates. One of these five, Judge
Rose, has been elevated to the supreme
bench, but the other four have been re-
nominated. The party proposes to go
before the people on the record these
men have made, and is confident of sue
cess.

The managers of the railroad lines be-

meeting to-day to consider the matter of
rates between these two points, in view
of the recent decision of the railroad
commissioners. 1t is hoped by some
that the Burlington & Northern will
consent to an advance in rates from
Chicago to st. Paul from 40 to 80 cents.
This would relieve the other roads from
