MERRIANf,S EXTREMITY.

The energetic manner with which
the Republican newspapers of the state
are commencing the work of flinging
dirt at Hon. EUGENE NJ. WILSON is a
sure indication that they are beginning
to realize Mr.. MERRIAM is not having a
walk-over in the gubernatoIial race. 1t
is a question, however, whether the
mud-fiinging tactics res0rted to by the
MERRIAM managers at the eleventh
hour of the canvass will avail the pur-
poses III view. In the first place, Mr..
WILSON is too clean man TO be injured
10y defamation. His personal history is
part, and one Of the brightest parts, of
the history of the state of Minnesota.
His reputation for ability and in
tegrity is too we'll established to
be disturbed by campaign SLAM
derS. His military services in
behalf of the state and of the Union at
a crisis in the history of both have not
been forgotten. Nor will they be. Con-
sequently, nothing can be done in the
way of weakening Mr.. Wilson's eandi-
daey by such dirty assaults as the Min
neapOlis Tribune and the state papers
who take their key from that organ are
INDUCING in against Mr.. WILSON.
II is not for the purpose Of defending
or indicating Mr.. WILSON that the
GLOBE refers to this matter, because he
needs neither defense nor Vindication in
the presence of the people of this state.
We allude to it simply to call attention
to the fact that the Reptlb.
lican managers have at last been
brought to realize the folly of
relying on the power of money to force
a candidate upon an unwilling people.
1t may be comparatively easy matter
TO buy conventions, 5at it is difficult
task to bay The people OF stale in a
body. Those who have watched the
state canvass have expressed surprise

BETTING ON ELECTIONS.

There is an evil under the sun that
SOLOMON failed to list in his catalogue
of wicked things, but is none the less
conspicuous in this day and generation.
We refer to the evil of betting on cleo
tons, which has become SO general in
this country that it is the exception to
find man in a presidential year who
has not risked money on the result.
Those who bet OH elections. and their
name is legion, do not do it in wicked
spirit. nor do they do it with any idea
of the complete decentralization they are
producing. The evil effcts of this in
discriminate and universal practice of
betting on elections are observable in
two respects.
In the first, place it is an open and di-
rect violation of the law. Whatever
tends to create disrespect for law is rev.
dictionary in effect and subversive of
good government. If the law is bad it
ought to be repealed, but as long as it
is in existence every good citizen must
realize the Importance of observing it.
Still another and, perhaps. the most
dangerous consequence of this evil,
is to be Observed in the tendency
to degrade the electoral franchise. In
1877 we had a memorable illustration of
the danger to be dreaded in this direc-
ton, and the same danger is liable to
occur any presidential year. Where
immense stakes have been placed on
the result Of an election, and nearly
everybody in the whole country is an in
terested party. we can readily see the
demOralizing effects of this perniclous
practice.
How to put stop to practice COM
paratively innocent in the minds of
those who indulge in it, and yet so
fraught with danger to our institutions,
is question now perplexing to our law
makers. In New York there is a statute
making a bet on an election a disquali-
fication at the polls, and yet it is pal
pably dead letter. There is just as
much betting now as before the law
went into operation, and no one seems
disposed to take the initiative in en-
forcing its penalties.

GOOD AUTHORITY.

Some time since, from the bench of
the supreme court eff the United States,
Justice MILLER, Republican, in the
decision of a case involving the general
principle of legislative taxation, said:
Beyond q cavil, there can be 10 lawful tax
which is not laid for a public purpose-to
lay with one hand the power of the govern
ment on the property Of the citizen, and with
the other bestow it upon favored individuals
TO aid private enterprises and build up pri-
vate fortune is none the less robbery because
it is done under the forms of the law and is
called taxation.
No more concise definition of the
abuses of tariff taxation can be given.
1t is not the assertion of Democratic
newspaper, nor of a Democratic orator.
but the deliberate utterance of the high
est judicial authority in the land. 1t is,
however. a condensed statement of
Democratic doctrine. though made by a
Republican. The effect of high tariff
is to 'aid private enterprises" and to
<'build up private fortunes" and to do
this, under the forms of law, Judge
MILLER says. is wholly Illegal, A tariff
for anything but revenue is clearly un-
constitutional, as well as unfair and Op-
pressive, except to the few whom it is
designed to favor. There is not a single
sentence in the federal constitution
which permits the levying of tariff or
any other taxes for protection only.
II there is. point it out.

A Dog Goes Mad from Being
Charmed by a Rattlesnake.

Macon (Ga.) Evening News.
A few days since Giles Melton,
farmer, was out hunting in the woods
near his house. His dog ran on some
distance ahead, and when Mr.. Melton
found him, ten minutes later, he had
been charmed by rattlesnake. The
dog was crouchlng down on the ground,
whining piteously and slowly creeping
forward. At first Mr.. Melton did not
see the snake, but when the dog refused
to notice him, he looked in the direction
the dog was slowly creeping, and there,
about twenty feet away, he
saw an immense rattlesnake,
cOiled as if ready to strike, and
it's glittering eyes fixed on the dog. Mr..
Melton did not first comprehend the
situation. He had often seen his dog
kill snakes, and at first thought he was
now creeping up watching for chance
to spring upon the reptile and kill it.
He soon noticed that the dog was
trembling in every limb, and seemed
poWerlesS to do anything except to
creep slowly nearer and nearer to the
deadly reptile. Every few moments the
dog would whine piteously. and then,
apparently impelled by an irresistible
impulse, would creep few inches
nearer its deadly charmer. MIR. Melton
watched the actions of his dog until he
was fully satisfied that the animal was
unable to free it self from the charm,
which was drowning it slowly but surely
within reach of the death-dealing fangS.
and then he shot and killed the snake.
When the snake had been killed the
dog fell down foaming at the month,
and for half all hour was apparently
lifeless, 1t recovered finally, and az
companied Mr.. Melton home; but all
day it continued to act strangely, and
would not touch food or water. The
following morning Mr.. Melton found
the dog in the back yard, foaming at the
mouth and swapping at everything in
reach. He was soon satisfied the dog
had hydrophobia, and lost no time in
killing it, He is satisfied that the effect
of the snake charming caused the dog
to go mad.

THE AMERICAN ANTONY.

That was a queer scene at CHARLIE
SoUIREs' funeral in Chicago yesterday,
as 1t is described IN our news columns
this morning, and yet there is a great
lesson in il. The reference made by the
eloquent preacher who delivered the
funeral Grafton to the operations of the
civil service law, as exhibited in Mr..
SQUIREs' case. had an exciting effect on
the mourners-So somewhat similar to that
which MARC ANTONY produced on the
Roman rabble when he delivered his
celebrated Grafton over C.ESAR'S dead
body. In this instance the gaping
wounds inflicted by civil service TOM
fOolery stirred the Chicago commons
to mutiny. The solemnity of the sur
roundings was no restraint upon the
deep emotion in their hearts when it
was brought to their attention that
CHARLIE SQUIREs, one of the best
known and one of the most popular
men in the Lake City, had not only
been degraded, but had been killed out
right by the operation of a system which
ignores merit in government employees
and reduces the civil service to sense
less piece OF mechanism.

REGISTER.

For the information of voters who
may desire to register, the GLOBE pub
fishes this morning a full list Of the
polling precincts in this city and county,
in order that the voters may know
where to find the place that they are to
be registered. As has been previously
explained in these columns. each voter
is required to be registered at the pre-
cinct where he is entitled to vote.
Again we urge upon every voter to
register. The opportunity will be af-
forded to-day.
Next Tuesday is the only remaining
day for registering, and, as something
may occur to prevent you from register
ing that day, make sure thing of it by
going up to your voting precinct to-day
and have your name placed on the list
of voters.
The GLOBE appeals especially to the
Democrats of Ramsey county to give
this matter their attention, for our Re-
publican friends are already beStirring
themselves.

MIR. RICE AT HOME.

Hon. EDMUND RICE will reach home
to-day, and the Democrats of this city
propose to tender him reception TO-
night worthy of their faithful repre-
sentative. Mr.. RICE has made record
in congress of which his constituents
have right to feel proud. His first
service in the national congress hap
pened to be during the longest term
known in the history of the American
congress, and yet, with one sim
gle exception, when he was called
home by a severe domestic affiic-
ton, Mr.. RICE has remained
steadfast at the post of duty and has
continuously devoted his abilities to
promoting the welfare of the district
he represented. This district has never
had more faithful representative than
EDMUND RICE, nor one who has been
more industrious in looking after the
public interests. He merits the demon
stration that will be given in his honor
tonight, and equally merits the still
more pronounced testimonial that will
be awarded him at the polls two weeks
from to-day.

excitement; and yet, if they have looked
into the situation carefully, they could
not fail to observe that, while there was
a marked absence of excitement on the
surface, yet underneath there has been
a strong and determined current OF pub
lie sentiment condemnatOry of the
methods employed by the MERRIAM
managers in this campaign. The voters
are not saying much, butthey have been
keeping up deal of thinking. There
has been a great revolution going on in
the public mind. and it will lind express
sion on the day of election.
1t is now evident that the Republican
managers have discovered the drift of
public S.ntiment in this direction, and
in their wild desperation are ate lpting
to check it by methods which are most
likely to help it along. If there had
been anything in Mr.. WILSON'S char
acter or record that was vulnerable, 1t
would have been assailed long ago.
The very fact that this mud-slinging
campaign is opened up on the eve of the
election is convincing proof that Mr..
MERRIAM is in the last ditch, with only
one round of ammunition left.
