with her schoolgirl friends. At the
table she is as dignified and mature In
manner as is the president, and far
more gracious naturally, but in her pri-
vate apartments her merry laugh and
gay conversation are heard continu-
Ously. When she has her schOOmates
with her the president is ever ready with
sugges ions for their entertainment. and
he finds frequent excuses for going to
her sitting-room, where he is sure of a
hearty welcome. There is kind and
friendly welcome for every one whom
his wife cares for. and as host he Is
most urbane and attentive. The long
line of women who nave presided as
hOstesses of the White house have had
new luster thrown about the position by
the graceful girl who was the first and
only one among presidents wives to
celebrate her wedding in the historic
mansion. She will be ranked in coming
time with Mrs. Madison and Miss Har-
rict Lane, as one of the three most pop
ular women who have held the position.

every side that Mr.. BLAINE is to be
shelved, and either Mr.. DEpEw or.
Senator SHERMAN invited to accept
the state portfolio; and from no quarter
does this cry come louder and longer
than from Gen. HARRIsoN's own home.
What does it mean? Is it to be. as the
GLOBE suggested before the election,
that Mr.. BLAINE is to be humiliated by
the Junior HARRISON as Mr.. CLAY was
snubbed by the elder HARRISON IN
1910? A better man and greater party
leader than ever JAMES G. BLAINE
could hope to be was then sacrificed on
the altar Of the HARRISON egotism and
selfishness. So 1t is possible that the
Harrisonian traits may again pre-
dominate.
In all this cabinet guessing it is like
wise singular that the one man of all most
likely to go into the cabinet is never
mentioned. We refer to STEPHEN b.
ELkINs. The average politician may
say it is absurd to speak of him in This
connection, and yet those who are
familiar with the inside workings OF the
Chicago convention know very well
that if it had not been for Mr.. ELKINS'
deft manipulations Gen. HARRISON
would never have been nominated. MI.
EIKINs appeared at Chicago in 1888 just
as he did in 1884, the confidential man
ager of the BLAINE boom. 1t became
apparent at the start tina! if Mr.. BLAINE
were not renomiaated the nominee
of that convention would be named
by his managers. Hence it be-
came seuffie among the candidates to
stand foremost in favor with the
BLAINE managers, and thus STEPHEN
Is. ELKINS got to be the controlling
factor of that convention. That the
BLAINE mantle fell on HARRISON is
history. That it was placed OH his
shoulders by Mr.. ELKINs' own hand is
also known. Why Mr.. ELKINs pre-
ferred HARRISON to the other candi-
dates is well enough understood by
those who are familiar with the init
mate business associations between
those two gentlemen. They are both
members Of what is known in the East
as the senatorial syndicate,' which
owns and controls vast railroad and
mining interest. 1t would not do to put
BLAINE and ELKINs both in the cab
met. ELKINs would be more plastic
than BLAINE; therefore, president
who is ambitious to be the master spirit
of his own administration would natur-
ally prefer cabinet material that could
be controlled to that which would con-
troll MIN.

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1888-11-19
AN CONVENTIONAL WRONG.

BY an oversight of the GLOBE man
agement there appeared in the society
columns of the SUNDAY GLOBE OF yes
terday an article rejecting upon the
character and reputation of Mrs. GRACE
HosTER. The GLOBE takes this oppor-
tunity to correct and retract the state
mentS therein made, and to frankly
State that we have nothing in our pos
session to justify the reflections which
were cast upon the lady in question.
The error was made through subordi-
n"te, who was evidently made the dupe
OF some one who bore malice towards
Mrs. HosTER. The GLOBE does not
make war upon women. and without
any sort of reservation we tender to the
lady and to our readers a proper apol-
ogy for the wrong that has been unin-
tentionally done.

ONE WAY 70 WALK.

One of the most important PROPOSE
tons to be made to the legislature of
1889 will be that for an increase of taxa
ton. The incr, aSe asked for will prob
ably be one MILL The basis for the de-
nand will be upon the growth of the
state, increase of official business, and,
in consequence, increase Of official eX-
penditures.
1t ought to be hardly necessary to
call the attention of the Democratic
members of the legislature to the course
they should pursue toward this. The
last state platform of the Democracy
arraigned the Republican party for eX-
travagance in state affairs and pledged
Democracy's best efforts to financial re-
form. If the present tax rate Increased
7-l3 mills since 1880 is not sufficient
to meet the state expenses. there
should be a rigid cutting down Of
salaries. reduction of the official force
and diversion into the public treasury
OF moneys now passing into the pockets
of private individuals. The fees of the
oil Inspector, of the governor private
secretary, and the large SURPRISES cred
tied to various state institutions can, by
little reform legislation. be made the
property of the revenue fund. A care
full avoidance of the passage of bills as
nefarious as House File Isl will inure
greatly to the benefit of the treasury, as
would also increased taxation upon GER
tain corporations.
1t is not probable that the Republicans
will pursue this course, but it is the
duty of every Democratic member to
follow it. There Will be an opportunity
then for the taxpayers to ascertain
whether the Republican or the Demo-
cratic party is the most sincere in Its
profe ssion of governmental principles.

nalism.
Chicago News
Young w. d. Washburn. son OF the
eX-congressman from Minnesota and
possible senator, gracfously granted an
interview to reporler who called to
see him at the Richelieu hotel. This
Young person announces his firm deter
mination to become newspaper man.
He began his schooling On Minneapo-
lis paper, but he thinks reporting at
home, where he knows everybody and
where his chums are continually ask
ing him to put their names in the paper,
is not pleasant, so he thinks Of going
to New York, where, no doubt, it Will be
a paradise upon earth. Of course
Young Washburn is starting out in the
right way. Realizing that the road be-
fore him is rough and thorny, he accus-
toms himself as a good soldier to bear
hardship by putting up at the Rlehe-
lieu, where velvet carpets and coarse
dinners will enable him to get used to
husting out after fires at O'Clock in

which other reporters couldn't get. That
Fewoulsi give him an unfair advantage of
the others and thus lead him to be vain
of his abilities as neWs-gatherer. So
he goes to New York, where he doesn't
know soul, to hustle for himself. He
will have to work, for, with his ignor-
ance of the city aud the business, unless
papa sends a good many money orders.
it is likely this ambitious young man
will be inquiring the price of lodgings
in the Bowery before long. But, as
Daniel Webster used to say. let us get
at the motive. Why does he choose the
newspaper business for his life work?
Because he says the newspaper road
is the way to the senate. Why, of
course. Goodness. yes! How stupid
not to have thought of that before!
