Jority of $4,000 against prohibition at
the election in November of next wear.
The high license system has been in Cd
Grafton there several years. but the ex-
terminators were strong enough in the
last legislature to submit the question
to the popular vote, in the form of a
direct choice between prohibition and
high license. The latter works as well
there as it does in this or other states.

system OF LOCAL ROADS.

While the attention of the country is
being directed TO the subject Of improv-
ing cur trade relations with the states
of South and Central America, the peO-
pie of St. Paul might find it profitable
to devote some Of their time and thought
to the subject Of improving their trade
relations with the country that Is trib-
utary 10 this metropolis. st. Paul is
proud OF its immense lObbiDg business,
and Justly so; yet it is not so large but
what it could be made largerif we would
only 90 at it in the right way. The first
thing to be done is to take from Chicago
all the business that legitimately be-
longs to St. Paul, or IN other words, to
drive Chicago out of our territory.
Heretofore our iObberS have been placed
at a disadvantage by the determinations
the trunk lines made in favor of Chi
cago in the matter of freight rates. The
building of the 500 line. however, re-
lieYed Us of this difficulty. and we are
now in position to meet Chicago on
equal ground. The effect Of this advan-
tage derived from the equalization of
rates is apparent in the increase of the
jobSing business Of this city within the
last two years. But we should not he
content with what has been gained
when there IS so much more yet within
our reach, and which may be acquired if
we only strive for its acquisition.
IN our judgment the foremost matter
for consideration in any plan for the eX-
al
with the great area of country that is
tributary to st. Paul relates to the
establishment Of a system OF local roads
bringing our city III direct cOmmunica-
ton with every town of any size or i'm
pOrtance in Minnesota and the Dak0tas.
These roads should he built by st. Paul
capital. owned by ST. Paul men. and
operated. as far as is possible, independ-
IDENTIFY of the trunk lines. We are
already provided with all the trunk
lines that we will ever need. What we
want is a system of local feeders that
will bring trade. and all the trade, di-
rect to ST. Paul. The importance of
adopting this policy must be recognized
under any condition or under all cir
cumstances, but the necessity for it now
is made apparent by recent railroad
combinations which propose to de-
grade the Twin Cities to the place
of a way station, and to rob US
of our prestige as a railway center
1t is probable that some or all
Of these proposed combinations will
miscarry, and our position will not be
disturbed. Still the fact that such a
thing IS being contemplated. and may at
some time reach fruition, ought to i'm
press our commercial classes with the
Importance of doing something to for
tify our commercial interests against
the dangers to which they are exposed.
When we have linked to US with bands
Of steel the territory which Nature has
made tributary to this metropolis, and
are ourselves the owners of these local
lines, then we will be in position to
snap our fingers at all combinations that
may be made by the trunk lines in the
future Let us think it over, at any
rate,

Where EIopements Are Numerous
and Marriage Licenses Easily
Procured.
Washington Letter.
There have been so many runaway
marriages IN Washington during the
past year that the city is becoming
veritable Gretna Green. Children fail
ing to secure marriage license or a
minister to perform a matrimonial cere-
mOny have only to fly to Washington
and their hearts are quickly made to
beat as one. Attention has been to-day
called to the loose condition of affairs in
this respect bv the elOpement and mar
rage of Claiborne A. Wilson and Miss
Maud GlasScOtt, Of this city. He is
twenty, she seventeen. Heis nephew
of President Arthur'S United States
marshal in this district, while she is a
belle in the youngest channels of upper
society. On both sides of the match
there is protest, but it is of no use; it
is too late.
In the multiplicity of combinations
which have brought forth hundreds of
sensational marriages in the District of
Columbia during the past three years,
making this resort, far-famed, for all
who have obstacles in the way of mar
Tiage, no one has ever been made to
suffer. 1t is not crime in the eyes of
society and the law to aid and abet
movements of this character. From
Maryland, Virginia and all directions
they come every day, till the list of mar
raige licenses issued by the clerk of
the district court runs as high as that of
whole large state. Congress will not,
however, be invoked to stop the traffic,
for the people here seem to enjoy it. On
the contrary it will be encouraged. No
troubl0us questions are asked when one
applies for licenses in Washington to
wed the girl of his choice. Al that is
necessary to secure wife is to get the
girl to say "Yes," and raise 81 in cash
for the license and secure a minister to
tie the knot. 1t does not matter whether
you are white. black or c0pper-colored;
or whether your sweetheart is one color
and you another. 1t makes no differ
ence whether you are tWenty-one or
seventeen; whether your girl is fifteen
or forty, or whether your parents are
willing or unwilling. One dollar will
secure the order of the court upon a
minister of the gospel to solemnlze the
rites of marriage and no questions will
be asked. So much announcement is
just now afforded young people to elope
to Washington that fathers and moth
ers in the surrounding country are not
little worried.

THE OLD SOLDIER REMOVED
Simply to Get a Republican in His
Place.


Place.
To the Editor Of the Globe.
WELLS, Oct. 26.-It is announced that
the president has appointed Andrew j.
Eaton postmaster at Wells in place of
Col James W. POlleys. removed. This
is a marked instance of the inSinceriUy
of the president and his party in their
pretensiOns to be the only true friends
of the old soldiers. Col. Polleys, ere
moved" was the lieutenant colonel
of the Fourteenth Wisconsin regiment.
which performed the most distinguished
service in the army of the West. This
regiment was sent by the old hero, A.
}. Smith, to relieve the heroic Col. Will
kin. of Minnesota, in his endeavor to
save the remnant of our retreating
army at "Guntown." This Fourteenth
regiment was in the vanguard of Gen.
Smiths army in his march up the Red
river to relieve Gen. Banks. At the
battle of Shiloh, in which this regiment
was first engaged, after a severe strug-
gle it captured the Crescent battery, of
New Orleans: and, as a mark of honor,
one of the guns was rendered to the reg
iment by the commanding general
which gun was sent to Madison, Wis,
and is now held by that state as one of
the trophies of the war. After partici-
pating in all the conflicts of the Western
army, the regiment followed its fortunes
to the front of Vicksburg and lost more
men in that memorable siege than any
regiment in Gen. Grants army; and
when at last on the Sd of July. 1868, the
rebel general surrendered that strong
hold, the question arose in the Union
army as to which regiment was en-
a. ~ g
tOrious army into that stronghold CT
the rebellion. 1t was, by the order of
Gen. Grant, awarded to the Fourteenth
Wisconsin, of which our postmaster.
removed" was the lieutenant colonel.
Col. Polleys was severely injured in
the army, the effects of which
he will carry to his grave.
In addition to this Col. Polleys
is very popular in this community. Not
one man in ten would vote for his re-
moyal. And who is this Andrew j.
Eaton that is appointed to take the
place of this war-scarred soldier? at
the outbreak of the war he resided in
Oneida county, New York. When the
war broke out he left his home in
Oneida county and went to Canada,
and remained there, running Touring
mill at great profit. until the war closed.
What a picture is this for the old
soldiers to look upon! But this is not
all. Who in Wells asks for tine re-
moval of Col. POlleys and the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Eaton? But two men,
one member of the last legislature,
and the other member of the Chicago
convention. In the opinion of Con-
gresham Lind, the recommendation of
these two men outweighs the voice of
the people. the good of the public serv-
ice, and the scars of the soldiers.
1t may be proper to add that in all of
these heroic acts of the Fourteenth Wis
conSin regiment Col. PolleyS was with
them, and for more than one year was
the acting colonel Of the regiment.

AsIA's ABLEsT SOLDIER.

John Hinton, the Ameer's Favor
lite, Pennsylvania Country Boy.
Somerset County (Pa) Democrat.
Nearly forty years ago, in South Hun
tington township, Westmoreland coun-
ty, lived John Hinton. He was an
orphan boy, rude and uneducated. and
had wandered there from the neighbor-
hood of Mas0ntown, Fayette county.
With no known relatives he was
kicked from one family to
another till manhood, enlisting
then in the war. At its close he helped
to escort the CherOkees beyond the Mis-
slssippi. From Indian territory he
went to New Orleans and shipped as a
common sailor on vessel bound for
the East Indies. AT the Bay of Madras,
on the western shores of the Bay of
Bengal, he deserted aud enlisted in
British regiment. He served many
years, and during the memorable Sepoy
rebellion was noted for his daring BRAY
cry. At his discharge he was pre-
sented with a gold medal by the gov
ernor-general himself.
He is next heard of travelling in a
caravan from Delhi westward across
the Indian river, through AfghaniStan
dllu clSld W uIhOJ OdCh. LII
time, from trading. he became i'm
mensely wealthy, and was the owner of
five caravans, containing $4,000 horses
and camels and 80 elephants. In 1873
he visited Cabul, tine capital of Afghan
iStan, for copper, great quantities Of
which are there mined and smelted. His
magnificent retinue attracted the atten-
ton of the ameer, and he was invited to
an audience, an honor never before re-
ceiyed by Christian. a presenter 100 of
his best horses and three-tusked ele-
plant made the ameer his eternal
friend. When yearly it was followed
by similar presents, besides camels and
merchandise, John Hinton gained the
monopoly of the trade from the summit
of the Hindoo KuSh mountains to the
confines of BelOOchiStan, and in
real power is second only to the ameer
himself.
About 1880 he was made military COM
mander of the district of Herat, and in
1886 suppressed local rebellion, to the
great satisfaction of his sovereign.
Trained in the arts of war among the
savages of North America and among
the superstitious natives of India, where
he became thoroughly familiar with
British soldiers and their resources, to-
gether with his years Of service as the
idoliZed commander of the Mahometan
tribes, to tens of thousands half-civiliZed
men he is to-day the ablest soldier in
