Midnight Marauders.
Special to the Globe.
BLAIR, Neb., Aug. 2.-About two
weeks ago three men broke into the
Acme mills here, beat the engineer, &.
A. Fackler, in a brutal manner, and
helped themselves to all the flour they
could carry away. In the morning about
3 o'clock, Fackler heard noise
in the storeroom and upon investigating
found three men there helping them
selves to the flour. He opened fire with
his revolver and one of the men with
groan fell to the floor. His two COM
panions. who had jumped outside the
window sprang back, and picking the
wounded man up carried him away.
This morning large pools of blood were
found on the floor and meal sacks. The
thieves were tracked a considerable
distance by the blood, but finally all
trace was lost.

A sharp, vigorous tariff campaign on

There is a vast demand in the district

At the present time the machinery of
the committee is practically in the con-
troll of three men-MeSsrs. Doran and
Miller, and Mr.. Kelly, who is not a
member of the committee.
They stand accused land they have
not refuted the chargeS) of using that
machinery for personal ends.
Why should Mr.. Doran start clubs I'm
Ramsey county?
Why should Mr.. Miller visit Wabasha
county and interfere in the county con-
vcntiOn there?
Why should he do the same thing in
Goodhue county?
The question arises in the minds of
many Democrats: "Is it the business
of portion of the state central COM
mittee to make personal war on Demo-
crats?"
These are questions that the coming
state convention has got to face and set
tie. For if not settled, it is plain OH the
face of it that these factional fights will
occur in every campaign.
Since MeSSrS. Kelly and Doran took
control of the party there have been
nothing but chickering's and fights. The
country Democrats are getting tired of
this.
A sentiment is gaining strength
among them that a reorganization of the
party is needed and that if it does not
come at once Minnesota will go Repub-
lican this fall.
For twenty years the party in Mime
sofa has been practically under the con-
troll of these gentlemen, and not one
Democratic victory has been won in
that time.
When DIR. Ames came so near to
winning, it was with the opposition of
these gentlemen to his nomination.
The congressional victories were won
independent of the state central COM
mittee.
The GLOBE gathers these opinions
from all parts of the state. They come
from good and loyal Democrats in:Red
Wing, Mankato, Winona, Rochester,
Duluth, and the country towns.
1t might be wise to let the county De-
mocracy control the party at once

La CROSSE, Wis.,, Aug. 2.-Five barns
were burned to the ground at an early

five horses, belonging to James ].

those of DR.. Ballard, Messrs. Strouse,
Losey and Crosby. Houses in the vi

as the wind was quite strong from the
south. There was peril of a general fire in
the thickly settled neighborhood. One
of the horses burned was trotter, but
his value is unknown ON account of the
absence of Mr.. Hogan from the city.
The total loss, exclusive of this horse,
was about $4,000. insurance $4,000.

A Feeling That the Conven-

Committee.
D. S. Hall Hopes That the
Campaign Aerimony Will
Ee Pleasant.

Mr.. Kelly will not have an office. He
spurns the suggestion that he become
the new chairman of the Democratic
state central committee.
If that substantial gift were to be
transferred to him on silver platter
held by Dr.. AmeS and Tom Bowen, Mr..
Kelly would still refuse.
But he has friend-one dear to his
heart-whom Mr.. Kelly would like to
elevate TO that position. Mr.. Kelly has
said this himself.
That friend is John F. Meagher, of
Mankato. MI. Kelly wishes to make
him a campaign manager.
Mr.. Meagher was chairman of the
Democratic state convention of 1856. 1t
was he who, after John G. Wise, Henry
r. Wells and others had sat on DR..
Ames, made Mr.. Doran chairman of
the state central committee again.
Mr.. Doran then. as well as Mr. Kelly,
has reason to be friendly to Mr..
Meagher.
Mr.. Miller, of the state central COM
mittee. says the new chairman will be
an American. This, if true, will bar
Mr.. Meagher.
But Americans do not receive much
consideration in politics from MeSSrS.
Kelly and Doran, and Mr.. Miller may
be mistaken.
Mr.. Meagher possibly might not ac-
cept the chairmanship since his expert
ence in politics in the past has been dis

MILLIONS FOR CHARITY.
Baron Hirsch's Mnnificent Gift for the
Benefit of Russian Jews.

Baron Hirsch's Munificent Gift for the
Benefit of Russian Jews.
One of the most munificent gifts ever
made by rich man during his lifetime
is that of Baron Hirsch. He has given
80. 900, 900 to the Emperor of Russia to
found in Russia primary schools for
Hebrews and $4,000 to be at the dis
posal of the Gar for works of charity.
This money was offered to the Emperor
three months ago. but with the formal
tiles that monarchS will insist on has
only just been accepted. The three
months delay was caused by the En-
peror going to Copenhagen. He in
structed his Minister of the Interior to
report on the offer when the Emperor
should return TO Russia. The report
has been made, and the gift has been ac-
cepted. The $40. DOC. 900 has been placed
in the Bank of England. and Baron de
Rothschild and Baron de Worms have
been appointed trustees for the money.
The interest on this money. which will
be about $500. 900 annually, is to be de-
voted to the mainten ance of schools for
Hebrews. One thousand of these
schools will be opened. and they will
be able To educate in each school fifty
children, or ih all $4,000 children.
Baron Hirsch is one of the wealthiest
Hebrews in Europe and has always
been famous for the large sums of
money he has given to charities. He has
been particularly generous to the He
brews in Europe. He was born in Mu-
Mich, but now lives in Paris with his
wife. He had one son, but he died
few months ago. 1t is estimated that
the Baron is worth $50, OO0. and
this enormous fortune he has accumu-
lated himself. chiefly through invest
ments in Turkish railroads. For some
time Baron Hirsch has expressed great
sympathy with the Hebrews in Russia.
There are about 100000 there. He
thinks that if they are well educated
that things viii change for them. and
they will be much happier. and for
this purpose he has given one-eighth
of his entire fortune.-N 7. Nail and
