WRONG AGAIN.

According to EDWARD ATKINsoN's
theory, as set forth in the April Forum,
the kitchen is largely responsible for
the hard times that are upon us. He
figures out that large per cent of the
food supply of the country is wasted in
bad cooking, and that by the dyspepsia
or indigestion occasioned by bad cook
ing, the working capacity of the people
of the United States is impaired, and
their product correspondingly dimin-
ished. If Mr.. ATKINSON is right, all of
our modern social reforms should begin
in the kitchen; but as there is no evil
dence that cooking is any worse in this
day and generation than it has been in
all the past periods of the words his
tory, we fail to see the force of his argu-
ment. 1t is possibly true that dyspep-
sla is more common than it was in the
days of the pioneers, but that is not to
be accounted for so much by the differ
ence in the methods of cooking
as 1t is by the difference in
modes of living. The old-timers
roughed it, and consequently always
mad good appetites and good digestion.
The new-timerS live in bandboXes. and
consequently grow up tender. In the
old times everything had to be made by
hand. Now everything is made by ma
chinery. There is more being produced
than there is demand for, and with the
aid of mechanical invention the work
ing capacity of the American people is
far ahead of anything known in the

RUssELL's REGIME.

For Quail-hunting with howitzer,
young Mr.. HARRISON, son of the presi-
dent, is entitled to the belt. Our Mon
tana dispatches this morning tell how
the junior member of the administra-
ton firm is working the federal patron
age in the interest of his Helena news
paper. According to what seems to be
a well authenticated story from Helena,
young HARRISON wants to use plate
matter in his newspaper, but is barred
out by the typographical union of the
territory. He now proposes a COM
promise, whereby he will give the fat
Office of public printer to a union man
in exchange for the use of the coveted
plate matter. 1t is fshy story, we
admit, but the HARRISON family have
been doing some mighty fishy things
since they got into the White house;
and this particular story is so well
authenticated we have to swallow it.
What little business it is for the son
of a president to engage in, and what
little business it is for a president to
allow his succulent offspring to traffic
in federal patronage in this sort of
style. In many things RUTHERFORD
B. HAYES was source of great morti-
fication to the American people during
his incumbency of the executive Office;
but as little as he was, he was giant in
comparison with the present incumbent.
Probably the next thing we hear of, the
Berlin mission will be traded off to
WILLIAM HENRY SMITH for a reduc-
ton of telegraph tolls on the Associated
Press matter sent to The Helena news
paper.

TIRED OF WALKING.
When Will the Cars Start? Is the
Question Asked by Everybody.

When Will the Cars Start? Is the
Question Asked by Everybody.
When will the cars start? is the ques-
ton which agitates everybody's mind.
The people who are too tired to walk
and cannot afford the luxury of car
riage would undoubtedly be glad if
any one could tell them. The official S
of the street car company seem to know
no more about this than the people at
large. Col. Barr was asked last
night when he expected to
start cars out, and replied
81 have not the remotest idea" If he
doesn't who does? From his remarks
published in yesterdays GLOBE it will
be seen that he will not start until the
excitement dies down. Some thought
they would commence yesterday, and
call upon the mayor for protection in
case of excitement. but in view of the
prospect of a hurrah meeting last night,
this was not looked forward to with
off. 1t is not expected that they will
start to-day, as the excitement OF last
night will scarcely have died out. But
tomorrow seems safe day. The eX-
element will by that time have sub
sided, and the chances are that if the
cars start out from all the barns stimuli
taneously, there will be no trouble.
1t is mere surmise, but the indica-
lions of the strike barometer,
the signs and presages, the omenst
all tend to show that Wednesday will
see the regular street car service all
over st. Paul, and those who say, Its
a beastly bore, " know. to ave to walk,

BADEAU AGAIN.
His Suit for Double Pay Fails to
Stick

WASHINGTON, April 49, An opinion
was rendered by the supreme court of
the United States to-day in the case of
Adam Badeau, appellant, VS.. The
United States. This was suit brought
by Badeau in the court of claims for
pay, as retired captain in the army,
from April %. 1870. to Sept. 16. 1881,
during which time he was consul gem
eral to London, and from Nov 25, 1882,
up to the date of the filing of the sllit,
during which he was consul general at
Havana. The United States filed
counter claim, stating that Badeau was
indebted to the United States for money
enormously paid him as all army officer
for portions of the period from Dec. 81,
1869, to Oct. 81. 1882. The court of
claims. by divided vote, dismissed
both claims. The supreme court holds
that Gen. Badeau, while drawing sal
airy as consul general, was expressly
inhibited from receiving any additional
compensation for discharging the du-
ties of any other office. The court also
refuses to disturb the Judgment of the
court of claims adverse to the counter
claim of the United States.

NOT UNTIL MAY FIRST.
A Bit ofNews for Employees of the
Railway Mail Service.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-By an order
of President Cleveland, the employees
of the railway mail service were placed
under civil service rules. to take effect
March 10. President Harrison, at the
request of the civil service commission,
modified the original order, extending
the time to May L. That date, it is I'M
derstood, will remain as fixed, after
which no one who desires a position in
the railway service can be appointed
without first having passed the exam
ination prescribed by the commission.
President Harrison has, however. said
that in justice to good men vino in the
past four or five years have been re-
moved without cause, he will so amend
the order of President Cleveland as to
allow the Old employees within that pc
Rod to be reinstated. This modification
of the order will, it is understood, be
promulgated in few days. Men now
in the service will not have to pass an
examination.

THE PROMISED LAND.
Kansas City Begins to Feel the
Oklahoma Rush.

KANSAS CITY, April 15.-In this city
Oklahoma is the one topic of every
tongue, the end of every enterprise
The local jobbing trade is holding off
its regular custom to supply the one
source of demand. Hardly sufficient
for the current needs of the city is left
in the hardware, implement and general
merchandise stores. In the Santa Fe
freight yards. crwded on the tracks and
under moving orders, are about thirty
huge trains freighted with the antici-
pated necesSaries of the coming commu-
nifty. There are houses in sections,
ready to be bolted together and entered
after their delivery. There are
completed stocks of every con-
ceivable sort of merchandise, and with
each carload of stock is packed away
the building required to harbor it. LIN
this manner drug stores, dry goods
stores, boot and shoe stores, saloons
and groceries are drawn up in readi-
ness to be launched forward upon the
favored center. 1t is said in the rail
road offices here that LOCO carloads of
supplies for Oklahoma have already
been sent forward and are awaiting the
onset at Arkansas City on the border.
Meanwhile there is a steady gathering
of pilgrims by the railroads, but the
passenger business in the direction of
the new country is not yet commensu-
rate with the freight movement. The
rush, however. is perceptibly Begin
ming, and will gather in volume and en-
ergy throughout the week. 1t is esti-
mated that there are $4,000 persons
standing in the brush upon the skirts of
the track, ready to dash in afoot and by
horse and team the moment the pro-
scription is raised, and it is thought that
the railroads will carry in an equal
number before Nav |.

Chicago Feels SpitefuI.

Chicago Herald.
The state of Minnesota is about to share the
folly of Colorado and New Mexico in restrict
ing trade relations with other common
wealths. The bill to prevent the introduce
ton of dressed meat awaits only the signature
of the governor to become law. The farm
ers of Minnesota thus apply the doctrine of
protection to their own fiocks. In doing
this they accept the burden of local
inspection and official fees. They flout the
market of Chicago and may rely on their own
butchers TO purchase the beasts heretofore
sold at the Union Stock Yards. The 1nhab-
itants of Minneapolis and ST. Paul, in their
absurd jealousy Of this city, may now pay a
still higher price for their food. What was
incredible two years ago must now be be-
Ieyed. Chinese walls are rising at every
state line. Feudalism reapproaches rapidly
Barons and peasants prepare for the night of
ignorance that settles down on the land
Cannot the young men of the land, by coali-
ton with Democracy, sweep away this
gigantic mist of superstition and quackery?

There was to be ministry, so to
speak, composed of five members, a
king, vice king Doth of whom should
be native Samoans) and three ministers,
one to be nominated by each of the
three treaty powers. The scheme pro-
yided also sfOr a legislature of two
houses, the upper house to be known as
the ''taimau," and the lower house as
the '.faipule." The upper house was to
consist of king, vice king, the three
ministers representing the three treaty
powers, and the chiefs elected for life
by the people. 1t will thus be seen
that Secretary Bayard's plan involved a
preponderance of native influence. To
this the German minister objected.
Another important feature in the
scheme of government was
THE LAND COURT,
or land commission, whose business
would be to examine into the titles of
Samoan real estate, to settle the many
disputed claims that foreigners are set
ting up in Samoa, and generally to set
at rest all questions as to the ownership
of land both by foreigners and natives
on the islands. The German minister
favored the formation of a land court,
but he would have placed its machinery
entirely in German hands. The COM
mlsSionerS are not specifically instruct
ed as to the representation the treaty
powers may have in the treaty powers
may have in the local government of
the islands, but they are directed to in
sist that such representation shall be
absolutely equal and impartial. The
question of the restoration of the
status quo ante is quite fully 10
Gated in the Instructions. The COM
mlSslOnerS will use every effort to bring
about an agreement embracing this
restoration. No one can predict the
length of the conference. Sessions
will be held from time to time, and it
is not expected that the commissioners,
if successful in their mission, will re-
turn to this country for several months.
The commission is amply provided with
funds, the entire appropriation of $780,
900 made by congress to settle the Sa-
moan troubles being available for their
purposes.

SOUTHERN PRoTECTIONIsTs.

Gen. JAMES A. WALKER, an eX-lieu-
tenant governor Of Virginia, and the
last commander of the celebrated
''Stonewall'' brigade in the Confederate
service, has written letter, in which he
Endorses the proposed convention of
Southern protectionists at Chattanooga
next month. He takes the ground that
the solid South Oh sectional issues is a
detriment to the interests of the South
ern people, and he expresses willing
ness to join any movement that will aid
in removing this hindrance to the de-
velopment and prosperity Of the South
ern country.
Gen. WALKER has taken most sensi-
Bile view of the matter, and while we do
not concur in the opinion he expresses.
that "a protective policy is the true
policy for the whole country" we are
gratified to observe this tendency to-
wards a re-alignment of parties On eco
nomic and business issues. 1t is posi-
bly, true, as Gen. WALKER says, if sec
tionalism were dead and buried, at least
seven or eight of the Southern states
would be protection states. We
are sure that the two Virginias, Ala
bama, Tennessee, and possibly Georgia,
would all fall into the Republican line
on the tariff issue. At the same time
we are equally confident that if sec
tionalIsm could be eliminated from ma
tional politics Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas, Ne
braska and the Dakotas would join
hands in movement to put the tariff
| on revenue basis.
God speed the day when the solid
South will be broken, for when that
day comes the country will divide on
economic issues.

CUMBERLAND, Nd. April 15.-
Masked men Saturday night invaded
the house of Christian Yoder, near
Meyersdale, Somerset county, Pa, and
spent several hours torturing the old
man, who was infirm and ill. They
hanged him to hook, took
him down and hanged him up again as
though he were an old coat, and then
secured S1S6 and left, taking two of his
best horses. The horses, however,
have since been recovered at Pinker-
ton tunnel. At the time of the rob-
berry and cruelty there were five per-
sons in the house, a hired man and two
servant girls, besides Mr.. and Mrs.
Yoder. Yesterday neighbor gained
an entrance, and on the floor were the
old man. his wife, the two girls
all bound and gagged. 1t is probable
that the old man was tortured to COM
pei him to disclose the whereabouts of
his money, and that they were all
gagged and tied to aid the rufianS to
make good their escape.

Swindler Lies in Jail.
New YORK. April 15.-Ignatz Rein

swindled the tobacco trade and the
Commercial National bank some months
ago to the extent of many thousands of
dollars, was locked up at police head
quarters this morning. He arrived
under guard in the Servia last night
Reinitz was sugar manufacturer and
had an office at 13S Maiden Lane. In
January he deposited three checks ag-
gregating S7,376.74 in the Commercial
National bank. The checks purpOrted
to be drawn by ID. Baez & Co., of Key
established he drew S1,S15 in
one check. The Florida checks
came back dishonored. They
were forged, and ReinitZ had
disappeared. The detectives found that
he had gone to Europe on the Celtic
with his wife and three children, regis
tering under the name of Reinach. He
was indicted for forgery while on the
sea and detectives arrested him on the
other side. He was arrested on board
the steamer. Ithad meanwhile cropped
out that ReinitZ had other irons in the
fire. AS the agent of Morris Spiegel,
tobacco merchant at 276 Bowery. he had
disposed of his goods to Suffer Bros. of
Chicago, for his private benefit and
drawn on him for cash to the amount of
$4,000. Mr.. Spiegel started after him
on the next steamer. When he got to
the other side he found Reinitz under
arrest. The prisoner spent the stolen
money fighting against eXtradition. He
failed and was surrendered to Inspector
Byrnes' men. 1t is said that the losses
of tobacco merchants in New York and
Key West through his swindles will ex-
coed $4,000. He was committed in de-
fault of S12 800 bail

LEGISLATIVE CURIosITIEs.

The legislature has been the butt of
many gibes, and imputations have
foeked in that direction like swallows
to chlmney-in the main with as little
effective mission, apparently; but there
has been no notable contribution to
what have been known as 1.-The curios-
tiles of legislation" 1t is related that
among the acts Of the recent Nebraska
Legislature is one prohibiting the dis
charge of firearms in the public ways
except to destroy some wild, ferocious
and dangerous beast OF an officer in the
discharge of his duty" 1t is not prob
able that many of the officers will be
made game of, however. A law in
Maine provided for the killing of old
and WORKOUT animals, and defined "ani-
mals'' to mean every living creature"
This. of course, comprised old men and
women when they became infrm. That
state has some odd freaks, but it is not
believed that there has been any gen.
eral enforcement of this law.
