The AlIeut.vn Postoi, i,lce.

Tie president says that there Is no need
Of hundred thousand dollar postoflice at
Allentown, where the rent now paid for
postofice accommodation is but el 800
and where no other United States office
needs to be housed. The president seems
tohave good ground for thinking that a
hundred thousand dollars will not be
profitably invested in Allentown.
The case of Lancaster is different the
town is larger, the United States Offices to
he accommodated are more numerous,
and the rentals now paid are greater.
The presidents Allentown logic should
induce him TO sign the Lancaster bill,
and we expect him to do so. We can
consider the Allentown case and sympa-
thize with the Allentown people without
danger Of being thought to be affected
by danger signal raised to our own
shallop.
In contemplating Allentown, we gaze
upon the picturesque figure Of Brother
SowdeD, the valiant representative of
Democratic district. IIels Democratic
congressman, comparatively rare bird
in Pennsylvania fields. He is good
congressman a rarity in every field.
Mr.. Sowden is earnest, independent,
honest and wise lie is man and q
congressman worthy of the distinguished
consideration Of the president fai.
ticularly of Democratic president.
He does not seem to have been favored
with any startling amount of it in this
case. He went up last week to see the
chief magistrate, with hundred or
more Of his Allentown constituents, who
acquainted the president with its beau
ties and virtues and Mr.. Sowden says
that he was told that If anything should
appear to dim the chances of the Allen
town postoflice he would be notified !;
and 10 he was when the veto message
was read.
Some malicious people think that the
president slew Congressman Sowden's 3
pet lamb because he is recalcitrant upon
the tariff question but we do not believe
anything Of the kind. The president
would have his hands more than full il
he undertook to slay all the Democrats
who do not think rs he does about the
tariff and Mr.. Sowden is not the style OF
man upon whom that sort of argumen,
would be effective. The fact doubtless
/, that the president considers the position
he takes in the Allentown postollice Cat,
to be sound, and to be such as public sen
timent will approve; and he may no
have been sorry to emphasize II by taking
1t at the expense of Democratic distric
and congressman; whereby his independ
ence and sincerity will be displayed will
the greatest lustre.
That is all right for the president buI
bad for the Democratic district and con
gressman and probably sympathy ant
good will for Mr.. Sowden will persuad,
two-thirds Of the congressman to hell
him to his postollice despite the veto ant
its logic. We concede that the logic 4
sound; but confound the logic that de
prives the good people OF Allentown ol
what they have been fondly awaiting
We believe we would vote them theil
pOstOfiice.

provoments will have been made upon
them. Some also will have been known In

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Judge Will
lam Wiltshire died at his home in this
city to-day from congestion of the brain.
During the war he served in the Union
army as major of volunteers. He was
appointed chief justice of Arkansas in
1865, which Office he resigned three
years later. He was given the certificate
of election to the FOrty-third congress,
but his seat was contested and his COM
petitOr was declared elected. In 1874 he
was elected to the forty-fourth congress.
ROCHESTER. n. Y, Aug. 2O.-Seth
Green, the we'll known fish culturist,
died early this morning. aged seventy
one.
Mr.. Green was born in Rochester,
March 10, 1877. His entire life was de-
voted to the artificial propagation of
fish, and since 1864 he had followed that
pursuit at his famous fish hatcheries at
Caledonia. At the time of his death
Mr.. Green held the position
of state superintendent of fish
cries. During his experiments
he hatched artifcially the spawn of
about twenty kinds of fish, and also
hybridized striped bass with shad, shad
with herring, brook trout with salmon,
salmon trout with whitefish and
European trout with American brook
trout. He was decorated with several
medals in this country and Europe. Mr..
Green has been married since 1888, and
leaves four children.

With the exception of the labOring
classes and the Democratic masses the

terests of st. Paul are for continual
ton of the present high tax system.
The more high taxes the government
imposes the better they flourish. and
the country may take care of itself.
Mr.. Hall publicly advertises his resi-
dence in st. Paul and his connection
with these corporate interests, so that
it is natural to infer that if elected he
will represent them in congress and not
the Third district.
He cannot afford to be false to the
section where his capital is, and to
assert that it is in Renville county is all
humbug to those who know Mr.. Hall.
His interests are in st. Paul, and if
he doesn't represent ST. Paul in con-
gress Gf he is elected) there will be
serious trouble. If Renville county or
the Third district want representation
in congress they must select congress
man of their own ilk and country.
st. Paul is large and growing city,
and while she appreciates and honors
Mr.. Rice she will take in Mr.. Hall, too,
and he must represent corporate and
not agricultural interests.
The Third district is so large and
well populated that much surprise is
expressed over her selecting resident
of st. Paul to run for congress. Mr..

consistency of Republicanism.
To the Editor of the Globe.
'"The Hemlandet''-a Swedish-Ameri-
can newspaper printed in Chicago with
a Minnesota departmental its issue of
the 11th inst. prints an editorial en-
titled 1.-The Campaign in Minnesota"
in which the editor tries to make his
readers believe that Gov. McGill repre-
sents solid Republican principles. And,
after berating Messrs. Schetfer and
Merriam for their anti-Republican
sentiments, he continues his article as
fellows: 'The Swedes in Minnesota
are numerous and they will have con-
siderable influence in the election this
fall. They are pretty solidly
Rep ublicans because they un-
derstand the great Importance
of Republican principles" 1t would be
well for the Hemlandet, or some
other Republican journal, to let the
voters of this country know what prin-
ciples the Republican party has, if any.
They used to advocate high license, now
they want free whisky. They used to
talk about tariff reform, now they have
declared that no reduction whatever
will be made in duties on imported
goods. They used to brag of their tenn
perance sentiments, and now they are
satisfied with temperance resolution
thrown, so to say. after their platform,
and beside which the Temperance"
resolution adopted by the liquor deal
ers' association at their yearly conven-
ton in 1856 looks like mountain beside
a mole hill. I believe the old story
abont the coon skin would now apply
very nicely to the present Republican
party. And it would not be bad for our
Republican friends to adopt as their
campaign motto: Anything to beat
Cleveland-(and recapture of the
offices lost in 1884," AS to the statement
that the Swedes are solidly Republican,
think it is rather ''shaky." l know Of
old Republican towns where two years
ago there were three or four Demo-
cratic votes and the balance Re
publican, where there are now
Prohibitionists enough to carry
the town for the Prohibition
ticket. And they have almost solid
Swede population. And it is well. be-
cause the appellation of ''voting cattle"
will no longer fit my countrymen. And
if Gov. McGill represents Republican
principles, l am afraid that this state is
no longer Republican state,
because the delegates to the Re-
publican state convention from
the rural districts will be principally
made up of Scheffer and Merriam dele
gates: and l would not be afraid to bet
a new hat that if McGill is renomlnated

the next four years he filled by Demo-
crat or Prohibitionist. A SwEDE.

ST.. CLOUD, Aug. 19.-The special cor
respondence of the Pioneer Press OF
Aug. II from st. Cloud is misleading
in it's tendencies as regards Charley Gill
mans position in the political field. 1t
is known outside the frank and file" OF
the Republicans of Stearns that Gilman
is working for the ''gubernatorial
crown''-quietly and secretly, to be
sure-yet seeking the crown" He is
being encouraged in this movement at
home by those men who, two years ago,
did all they could in crushing Gilman.
This change of heart since that time,
when Charley wanted the governOrship,
is all owing to the "dark horse" problem
which seems to present itself on the
political horizon. Of course, with this
Stearns county gang McGill is first
choice. Why shouldn't he be? They
fear Merriam and condemn Scheffer.
So these former freezers of the Gilman
interest are now putting themselves
into the gap and are nursing, caudllng
and courting Gilman's favor as the
"possible dark horse" The Press cor
respondent says that ''the county dele
CATION will favor Gilman if Merriam is
an impossibllity." This ''conclusion'
is the impression given by Charley at
st. Cloud, mind you. The facts of the
case are that throughout the entire dis
trict, so far as ST. Cloud can control it,
ali the political lights of the county
are being instructed for McGill as
first choice and Gilman as second.
So it comes that if Gilman wins on a
dark horse combination and carries Off
the honors of state, of course this Nc
Gill crowd of two years ago want Char
ley's love-hence their change OF heart.
This st. Cloud gang did all they could
to lay Gilman Oh the shelf forever two
years ago. But, somehow, Charley
keeps bobbing up and won't lie still.
There is another element here in the
Republican ranks who support Schef-
fer, but so far as Merriam's candidacy
is concerned we have yet to hear his
name favorably mentioned by those who
manipulate politics in Stearus.
