MEAN PARTISANSHIP.

a pretty fair illustration of extreme
partisan malice is visible in the en-
deavOrs to GUST the Eau Claire poStmas-
ter. Mr.. GRAHAM, the incumbent. is
Democrat. who enjoys the confidence of
the Eau Claire people to such an extent
that they want him retained in Office
until the expiration of his term. 1t so
happens that Congressman HAUGEN
wants GRAHAM turned out because he
needs all the patronage he can control
to bolster up his candidacy for another
term. Mr.. GRAHAM has been honest
and diligent in the discharge of his
official duties. and no accusation of
any sort could be lodged against him,
except that he is Democrat. But, for
ways that are dark and for tricks that
are vain, Assistant Postmaster General
CLARKSON surpasSes the heather
Chinee; and when the matter was
brought to his attention it did not
take him long to invent an excuse to
turn Mr.. GRAHAM out of Office. A post
Office inspector was sent up there to eX-
anime the office. Mr.. GRAHAM afforded
him every facility for making thor
ough investigation, and was assured by
the Inspector that everything was in
good shape. 1t was therefore a matter
of surprise to the Eau Claire postmas-
ter, no less than 10 the good people of
that prosperous city, to learn that Mr..
CLARKsON was going to remove Mr..
GRAHAM on the charge of ineficiency
and shortage, and that these allegations
are based on the report of the inspect
or who examined the Eau Claire Office.
The charges are wholly unfounded, for
instead of the deficiency of S26l men
toned in the report, Mr.. GRAHAM is in
position to show that there was actually
a surplus of about 500 at the time the
inspector made the examination;
and as to the charge of inefficiency, the
citizens of Eau Claire, irrespective of
party, will testify to the contrary. 1t is
an outrage that such a miserable
calumny against worthy man and an
upright citizen should be employed to
get possession of a postofice for the
personal accommodation of congress
man. The GLOBE has too high an opin-
ion of the people of Wisconsin to believe
that they will tolerate, or even cOunte-
nance, such a proceeding, and the re-
mOval of Postmaster GRAHAM will
surely react on the party responsible
for it. There is nothing the American
people like so much as fair play and
honest dealing, and nothing they despIse
so thoroughly as skullduggery.

MONDAY CRATER.

Before the supreme court Of Maine
has time to focus its mind upon the
enormity of the offense of the farmer
who sold mug of apple juice from his
mill, it is discovered by the piercing
eyes of reform that Jamaica ginger is
being sold all over the state. This has
been subjected to analysis and found to
contain, in some instances, more alco-
hol than is used in ordinary brandy.
People are found to acquire the habit
of using it, and soon Outgrow any spe-
cial aversion to the little accessories.
But the evidence is that this and most
of the other decoctions that do active
duty in prohibition states are far more
pernicious than ordinary liquors. The
most vicious sort of alcoholic elements
are used in them. naturally. as the dis
guise prevents their recognition. There
seems to be no complete security in any
state that allows mixtures of any kind
with its water.

Secretary Noble States It's Condi-
tion at the Present Time.
WASHINGTON, Dec. THE annual
report of Secretary of Interior Noble
opens with chapter on Oklahoma. A
careful estimate. he says, based upon
the judgment of reliable men of the ter
ritory, makes the present population
of Oklahoma, in round numbers,
10000, of which 10000 persons

RE and Capitol hilD, 5000; King Fisher
and Lisbon, 5000; Oklahoma City. Gn-
Guiding South Oklahoma City 5000.
The territory contains twenty-nine
schools and thirty-eight churches, and
publishes twenty-five newspapers. The
number of schools aud churches
does not include few that
are outside of town limits, data
as to these not being readily Obtainable.
Upon the census he says: GAS an illus
tration of the magnitude of this under
taking, it is only necessary to mention
the fact that it is estimated that there
will be employed in taking the eleventh
census $4,000 enumeratorS, 1000 clerks.

Der of published volumes will
probably exceed those of the
tenth cenaus. The calculation has
been made that if the inquiry In regard
to veterans should yield 100000
names it will take eight qUartO volumes
of 1000 pages each TO contain them. He
favors investigation and recommends
legislation on private land claims.
The secretary writes at great
length on the work of the various
Indian commissions, and urges educa-
ton in Alaska. His report on the terri
tory includes short statistical sketches
on the four new states. He closes with
a simple reference to the Maritime
Canal Company of Nicaragua, and
gives in an appendix copy of the
Yellowstone Park lease.

inspire patriotic enthusiasm. But it

IT WAS an extreme Sabbatarian view
taken by a gentleman who prefixes
"Rev." to his name when he expressed
the opinion yesterday, in private con-
Versation, that the burning of the Min

judgment from God as punishment
for publishing a Sunday newspaper.
One who is orthodox diSSented from
that view on the ground that God is a
rational being, and visits His judgments
in rational way. "lf that had been
His purpose" said the dissenter, "GOd
would have killed Mr.. BLETHEN, who
is responsible for che publication of the
Sunday paper, and not have slaughtered
the poor men who were compelled to
work for their living" When told of
this incident last night, Mr.. BLETHEN
gave further confirmation to the opinion
that it was not a judgment, by stating
that the room where the fire originated
was last occupied by man who was
so pious that he wouldn't read Sunday
paper.
