TO THE POINT.
How the Democrats May Win
Next Fall.


The Graphic-Sentinel of Lake CITY,
speaks it's mind OH state politics as fol-
lows
Already the politics of the state is
beginning to ferment. The nOnentity,
who is governor of the state, is claim
ing denomination. Merriam has
nomination. He is a monOpolist in
principle and practice. but the Republi-
can party is fond OF such men. Nobody
knows what Scheffer is. He is bidding
for nomination from both parties.
Ames, backed by his former record, is
a candidate, but he never runs as we'll a
second time as the first. He is weaker
now than he was two years ago. He is
Objectionable to a large number of
Democrats.
A clean, reliable and able Democrat
could carry the state next fall. The
corruption of the Republican admins
tratiOn is a disgrace to the state. 1t has
been robbed by the railroads through
the negligence of Republican officials.
Taxes have increased, the affairs of
state have been mismanaged, all through
the incompetence of Republican
officials. There are good men in the
Republican party, but they have not
nlled puDllc OHlceS. LOOK at the char
acter and ability OF the last few admin
istrations. 1t is enough TO cause blush
of shame, when such men as Hubbard
and McGill are elected to fill the COVER
nor's chair. They don't fill it, they
only rattle around it.
If the Democrats will give us ticket
of trong men we can sweep the state.
The masses are tired of small-potato
politicians of the Hubbard and McGiH
stripe. They want men.

WHY 1T is.

"Senator JOE Browns guerilla Or
GAM is what the Philadelphia Record
calls the Atlanta Constitution. The
Constitution is the only paper with
Democratic tendencies that has ever eX-
pressed doubt as to Mr.. CLEvELAND's
reelection. The Constitution bases its
skepticism on piece of Wretched sophis-
try. Speaking of Mr.. CLEvELAND's
tariff message, it says no man has ever
been found who could lead the party to
victory on that line. Whereupon the
Philadelphia Record gently reminds
Mr.. BROWNS guerilla organ" that it
was just on that line ANDREW JACKSON
won illustrous victories for the Democ-
racy, and with undiminished popularity
transmitted his political power and pol
icy to his Democratic successors. The
MILLS bill is not as radical measure as
the tariff bill of 1916, and yet PIERCE
and BUCHANAN rode into the White
house on popular wave while that law
was in operation.
The position that the constitution has
taken on the tariff has been matter OF
surprise to all sections of the country.
But if the Records explanation is cor
rect and Senator BROWN is the moving
spirit of the establishment, then the
mystery is readily explained. JOE
BROWN is the ia GOULD of the South.
His Democracy was never more than
skin deep. Sometimes he is Demo-
crat, sometimes he is Republican, but
he is for JOE BROWN always. Being an
iron manufacturer at this date, it is nat
ural that he should be a protectionist.

After the examination of a few minor
witnesses, the court announced that the

discharged. At los p. m. Lawyer
Ellis stepped before the jury and began
the opening argument for the state,
holding the floor till the afternoon adj
jOurnment, and even then having not
completed his caustics arraignment of
the defendant. He reviewed the case in
a mastery way and dwelt long and
elOquently upon the virtues Of the dead
county attorney and the villiany of the
scheming, crafty Billings, who would
barter away his wife's good name for a
few paltry dollars. During the whole
day Billings sat with his head thrown
back and never tiinched, though his
wife occasionally hid her face in her
hands. All of the relations of the
deceased, beside the lady who was to
have become his wife, occupied con-
spicious seats in the court room to-day.

THE Y. NJ C. A. BUILDING.

The GLOBE wishes to say few words
to the business men of st. Paul with
reference to the building which is pro-
posed to be erected in this city by the
Young Mems Christian association.
The building is estimated to cost
S115,000, and only $45, 900 of that amount
has been raised. 1t is necessary to raise
$4,000 more, and it is for the purpose of
interesting our moneyedmen in this mat
ter that we propose to talk it over with
them.
There is scarcely a city in this country
of any size which is not provided with a
building Of this character, fact which
should stimulate our st. Paul people to
eXertion.
The value of such a building in any
city is incalculable. 1t provides what is
needed above ali things else in a great
city, pleasant resort for young men.
A great many young men are attracted
to st. Paul. They come here for the
most part as total strangers. They
usually find employment, and during
the working hours of the day their time
is engaged. But when the evening
comes, with no homes to go to, no
friends CT acquaintance to drop in on,
the only resource the young man has is
to 90 out into the streets in search of a
place where he can while away his idle
hours. Then temptation stares him in
the face at every street corner, and how
often is he Iured into the saloon or the
gambling den because there is no other
place for him to be entertained. 1t is
here the Y. M. c. A. comes to the res
cue. Ii provided with building such
as it is contemplated to erect in this
city, there would be no excuse for
young men being led aStray.
Then again our business men find a
building of this character to be bene-
fit to them as place from which they
could be furnished with reliable young
men when they need help. and where
they could have the best interests of
their employees cared for.
The healthy moral influence exerted
by the Y. Nj. G. A. is now SO universally
recognized that it needs no argument
to convince good citizens of the duty of
supporting the association.
A number of st. Paul's wealthy citi-
zens have already contributed literally
toward the building proposed to he
erected in this city, but there are more
WHO have not done anything yet. TIC
the latter the GLOBE makes its appeal
to come forward promptly and subscribe
the amount that will be necessary.

PRoPERLY REFUSED.

The president has very properly re-
fused to approve bill RENTING the re-
sponsibility of Paymaster BASH, of the
army, from whom $1,000 of government
funds was stolen in Wyoming abont
year ago. 1t was clearly demonstrated
that the theft of the money could not
have occurred had BASH been even,
ordinarily attentive to his duties. On
the contrary, he was grossly negligent!
Both he and his escort of two men.
were engaged in the pleasing occupa7
ton of eating pie. leaving the valise,
containing the money entirely unpro-
tected in the stage, when the thief
quietly appropriated the funds and
made good his escape. Had the COM
monest prudence been observed: had
the paymaster or the sergeant accom-
panying him, for instance, sat on the.
valise while the pie was being con-.
sumed, all would have been well. =
Doubtless the pie was very attractive
after long and hunger-inspiring ride,
but if a tired out sentinel is expected to
deny himself Sleep. under penalty of
death, why should not an imposing pay
master sacrifice his inclination for pie
in order to protect the government
funds? Thus evidently has the presi-
dent thought, and thus will the people
think. There has been altogether too
much leniency displayed by congress
toward officers, both civil and military,
who have through their own fault
caused the government financial loss.
A proper refusal Of relief in every
case where relief is not plainly deserved
will do much to bring about greater Wig
lance on the part of public servants.

ASHLAND, Wis, April 19.-Indians on
the Bad River reservation are claiming
the exclusive right to drive logs banked
on that stream during the past winter.
Whatever rules may be in force regard
ing the cutting and banking of logs,
the logs being on driving stream, they
are not under any but common JurlS-
diction. and the uncertainty of water is
sufficient, without taking any chances
regarding labor at critical period OF the
drive. The sheriff has been sent to the
scene of disturbance by an agent of G..
G. Eastman q Co., to prevent any inter
ference with their driving crews and to
arrest any parties interfering with
them. As this company has forty men
on the ground ready for driving logs. it
is very serious matter to be thus in
terrupted in their work. 1t looks at the
present time as if something serious
might arise from the determination
evinced On the part of the Indians to
interrupt driving. Some of them came
to camp to-day wishing to be employed,
and refused to leave, which neceSsitated
sending the sheriff to the scene this
morning to quell the disturbance. An
tome Denomine, brother of the fellow
who is at Washington pleading in the
Gregory Investigation, will be arrested
for melting to riot.

WAsECA, Mimi, April 19.-May II

the Waseca county Democratic conven-

state convention at st. Paul May 17,and
this fact has given prominence to po-

that time been considered, and which
was. as matter of fact, Republican by
