THE PARNELL INQUIRY

The startling rumor which was no
doubt at first intended to be quite con-
iident, but subsequently obtained gen-
era. publicity to the effect that Downing
street was IN state Of alarm over the
discovery that the Times had no case in
the Parnell affair, is now beins contra-
dieted by Conservative and Unionist
newspapers, Of course under instruc-
tons from Lord Salisbury's govern
mer,t. The story that the Times con-
templates the abandonment Of the case
]. is Of course untrue, because that paper
is IN such position that it dare not do
40 without admitting that it had made
itself liable to charges Of forgery, etc.
Rnt we believe that if it was at all pos
aible for it to do so, the Times wonld be
delighted to get out Of the position in
which 1t finds itself placed. Doing it
I as they may, the Government and the
Times both find themselves in terrible
condition at present, and the utmost
l dread and alarm exists as to the ulti-
ms mate result Of the inquiry, which, &C.
,c,tording to late reports, will probably
last for months. 4. ;.;5,

Speaking of the charge that is being
made against S. 6. Comstock, the Re
publican nominee for congress in the
Fifth district, that he is All attorney Of
the Mantle ba railroad and as such is
not the proper man to represent the dis
trIct iu congress, the Herman Enter
prise remarks that Mr.. Nelson held a
simiIar poaition when he was elected TO
congress. and Immediately draws the
conclusion that Mr. Comstock Will do
as we'll by the district as Mr.. Nelson
did. The farmers of the Fifth district
would be happy if they could reason as
the Enterprise does. It is not because
Mr.. Comstock is a railroad attorney
that the Republicans Of Northern Min
nesota do not want him, it is because Of
his notoriously corrupt principles as a
politician and defender of the present
protective system. coupled with his
close relations to the Manitoba and
other such INSCRIPTIONS corporations,
ho+ Ii s,,o !, o{ !,
disfavor. Mr.. Nelson is q low tariff
man, he voted with the Democrats in
congress for the Mills bill, while Mr..
Comstock and others of his l]k openly
denounced him Cor his independent ac-
ton. The main issue in the present
campaign is whether We are going to
get reasonable reduction Of the tariff
or not. The people Of the Fifth district
want sweeping reduc ion made. If
they elect Mr.. Comstock they cannot
expect HIM to vote for it, hence it is
that they want Mr.. Comstock to stay at
home and Canning to go to congress.
The Democratic and Republican jul
dicial conventions recently held, we're
suggested by both parties at their city
conventions in order to put up nom
partisan ticket, and keep the judiciary
as much as possible out of politics. The
Democrats decided ON Judge Lochren
as his own successor, but could not
think of nominating Judge Hicks. The
Republicans endorsed Judge Lochren
and nominated Judge Hicks. The lat
ter's nomination was secured by outside
delegates, and the local attorneys are
anything but pleased. Before the po-
sition which Judge Hicks now occupies
was created the Minneapolis lawyers.
irrespective of party, endorsed Seagrave
Smith for the place, and a memorial to
that effect was sent to Gov. McGill.
The latter promised to give the request
due consideration, but he forgot every
thing except political services when he
came to make the appointment, and so
Judge Hicks was appointed. Itisne
less to say: that this snub. Of the Cover
8nor's to the Hennepin county bar cost
him more than "a years salary, and
Judge Hicks is now marked. for the

POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS.

fer with tbs Democrats on the selection
OF candidates for the park commission.
They nominated a ticket Of their own,

ated, they were furious aud proceeded
to nominate man for The place. In
doing this they said they regretted that
it was necessary to bring the judiciary

How Hedgehog Kills a Serpent.

The Aach. de Phdrmacie of May 5
describes the proceeding as follows:
The hedgehog cautiously approached
the sleeping reptile and seized the
end of his tail between his teeth.
Then he rolled himself up into a COM
pact ball and awaited developments.
The snake, awakened by the pain,
turned upon his enemy and fought
with his fangs. The hedgehog, re-
tanning his hold, allowed himself to
be dragged back and forth during the
struggle, and, meanwhile, the SER
pent's jaws had become lacerated and
useless from constant assaults upon
the spines its enemy. In a few
minutes the serpent had become
much exhausted with his efforts, and
the hedgehog, unrolling himself, dis
emboweled the serpent and ate his
meal. In this case the hedgehog does
not kill the serpent directly, but
obliges him to kill himself by dash
ing upon the sharp spines.
