THE CoLoRED VOTERS.

The colored citizens of st. Paul are
pursuing sensible and conservative
course with reference to the approach
ing municipal election that speaks we'll
for their race. A large number of them
are outspoken in their support of Mayor
SMITH and the Democratic ticket, and
they base their action upon the ground
that they desire to secure for the city
the best possible administration of mu
nicipal affairs. This is done, too, not
withstanding our colored citizens are
for the most part Republican in politics,
and they are thus setting an example of
independence and conservatism that de-
serves to be initiated by their white Re-
publican brethren.
1t is a singular fact that, in spite of the
adhesion of the colored voters to the Re-
publican party, the colored men have
had less recognition from the local Re-
publican leaders than they have had
from the Democratic party. 1t is true,
at one time, the Republicans aimed to
throw a tub to the cOlored whale by
nominating one of their race on the
aldermanic ticket; that they then turned
around and slaughtered him most mer-
cilessIy at the polls. And it has been so
in every single instance where the Re-
publicans have pretended to give the
colored men recognition-it was only
the shadow, and none of the substance,
they got.
So it is the colored voters are in a
position to be independent of the Re-
publican machine, and they are eXer-
cisiug their independence, much to the
disgust of the kid element. More than
that, they are manifesting their interest
in good municipal government by lend
ing their support to the best ticket, re-
gardless Of their former party affilia-
tons. Many of them are property hold
ers, and all of them are well-behaved
citizens who are industriously pursuing
useful avocations, and contributing by
their energy and good conduct to the
upbuiding of the city,,

CHANGING DRINKS, TOO

The British treasury, too, has the
novel experience of overfullness of
late, with a surplus of Sl6,0OO,000. Get
ting rid of trifle like that would hardly
suggest to the present Washington
rulers any need of reduction of tariff
taxation, but the chancellor in his bud
get proposes several pruning measures,
all in the direction of relief to the
masses. This exhibit has the suggest
i've fact that the surplus is due to in
creased prosperity, and that this pros
perity leads to the increased use of the
stronger alcoholics. OF the increased
revenue the past year - per cent was
due to rum, 10 per cent to wine, per
cent to whisky, 6 per cent to brandy,
and but per cent to malt liquors. In
this country the rush has been turned
away from the rum and whisky bottle to
the beer barrel. while the $4,000 900
tax in England is almost entirely due to
the stronger drinks. Rum is the favor
lite of the British tars, and the IL per
cent of increase in it's use may be some
what of measure of the extension of
maritime and shipping interests. In an
article in an English publication Lord
CHURCHILL says: Each generation of
the English people is becoming more
and more alcoholized." If this is due
to the greater general ability to buy
liquors, it opens up problems to the cas-
uiSt and economic philosopher. Per-
haps it will be found that the cheaper
drinks are used more in dull times, and
the stronger ones in flush periods. This
evidence of the increase of the drinking
habit in Great Britain, so much III adj
vance of the population. is eorroborated
by other authorities, and is attracting
much attention.

EXIT OF THE PANS.

On the principle that the good which
men do lives after them, the work of
the Pan-American congress will be bet
ter appreciated by coming generations
than by the present. For present and
practical purposes very little has been
accomplished by the body of which so
much had been expected. The plan of
international arbitration suggested by
the conference is in sympathy with the
spirit of the age. and yet it could have
been as easily effected without the aid
or intervention of the congress as with
it. The representatives of the South
and Central American states have
ulster conceptions of our peculiar form
of government than they had before
they came among us, and will probably
go back home to instruct their people
in lessons of true republicaniSm.
But so far as the main object
of the conference is commemorative
bringing together of all the American
states into closer commercial union and
relations nothing, absolutely nothing,
has beenaccomplished. Ifanything, we
are farther away from it than before the
congress convened. For while the
body was in session the dominant party
in the American congress introduced a
measure which proposes to enforce the
protection idea with more rIgor than it
has heretofore been enforced, and as
result our South and Central American

ITS LAST RECOURSE.

1t must be assuring to their faith in
the exalted integrity of fellow citizens
aud the strictly benevolent and philan-
thropic character of the institution
seeking habitation among them, for
the opponents of the lottery in North
Dakota to read the developments of the
investigating committee. 1t is proba-
bic that they do not intrude imperti-
nently upon the privacy of confidential
relations, but they give the word of the
distinguished colporteur from Louisi-
ana or elsewhere, Senator SPENCER,
that not dollar was used in commend
ing his enterprise. aside from the cost
of the little accessories of gOod-fellOw-
ship. Had there been appeals Of a
material character to the individual
eagernesS of human nature for &C
quirement, they could not have
been unknown to the eX-states-
man. The only aim was to benefit the
young and somewhat embarrassed state
in getting start in its career. There
were not even limitations that $4,000
prizes should become numerous and
constant in that region. This is all
very gratifying and relieving. 1t would
be dangerous to the welfare of that or
any other state if an Institution that
can amass millions without toll or cap
ital should be SO morally loose as to
tempt the legislator with any system Of
profit-sharing. No doubt similar in
vestigation in Louisiana would show
that its virtue is on duty at home as
we'll as abroad. There is no published
information that the members of the
Louisiana legislature are to possess
prizes from either public or private
| drawings. That body is to meet next
month, and the lottery management will
ask it to submit to the people of the
state proposition to extend the
charter of the company for twenty-five
! years, in considerati on of which court
eSy the state will be made the benef-
ciary to the magnificent extent of S12,-
100000, to be paid in equal annual in-
stallments. This 100000 year is to
go, one-third to the schools, one-third to
the public charities, and the residue to
the support of the levees. 1t is pre-
sumed the legislature will consent to
submit this proposal to the popular
| vote. Whether it will be accepted or
not, can only be inferred. In the math-
ematics of morality it might be assumed

THAT TwINE TWIST.

Somebody is seriously at fault in re-
gard to that twine-manufacturing bust
ness, and the question now is to find
out where the blame is to be fixed.
Either the governor and his prison
board commission are culpable, or the
alliance officers have made a grievous
mistake. The last legislature empow-
cred the governor to order an investi-
cation of Irvine manufacture, with a
view of establishing twine plant in
the Saltwater prison. This was done
under the impression that compare
lively small outlay would he necessary,
and that it would relieve the farmers
from the oppression of burthensome
monopoly. In accordance with this sug-
gestiOn, the governor appointed two
members of the prison board an
investigating committee. who re-
ported that the project was not
feasible because of the extraordinary
expense attending it. 1t was estimated
that 1t would require from 100000 to
100000 to establish the plant, and
that the saving to farmers would be too
small to compensate for the outlay. III
fact, it was made to appear from the re-
port that the Irvine manufacturers were
now doing business on the smallest pos
sible margin of profit, and that it would
be useless for the state to compete with
them. Hence the matter was dropped,
aud the labor diverted in another direc-
ton.
Recently, however, the president and
officers of the state alliance have been
conducting an investigation of the Irvine
industry on their own hook, and it
seems they reach entirely different CON
illusions from those submitted by the
prison board commission. The alliance
authorities claim to have discovered tina.

ONE MAN, ONE VOTE,
The Keynote of Future Cam
paigns in Great Britain.

LONDON, April 25.-Sir Charles Rus
sell, in speech at Bradford. said that
the keynote of all future reform was
the adoption of the zone man, one vote"
principle. He condemned the land
purchase bill on several grounds. Mr..
Morley, at Roehdale. said he opposed
the land purchase bill for five reasons;
First, because the tenants were debarred
from free combining; second, be-
cause he declined to resort to Brit
iSh credit until representative
authority was created to ensure popu-
lar and successful working of the act;
third, he declined to impose great liza
bility upon Irish rate payers without
their consent. or upon british taxpayers
for the benefit of section of Irish land
lords and tenants; fourth, he declined
to make Ireland for years to come
debtor to the country without the assist
ance of the only men entitled to speak
in her behalf; fifth, the machinery of
the bill was unavoidable and the guar
antees were ilIusOry. Referring to
what he called Estate socialism," Mr..
Morley said: This state socialism is
protecting us from social revolution"

A CoLoRED REGION.

The idea that the race friction in the
South, OF more particularly the cotton
states, could be allayed by the deporta
ton of the colored people has been
abandoned, if it really had any consid-
cradle prevalence. In fact, there is
movement in the northern part of Mis-
sissippi to induce the migration Of ne
groes there from other parts of the
South. There is vast area of nearly
1000 square miles known as the "Yazoo
delta" that is of almost fabulous fer
tility, especially for growing cotton. 1t
is land of malaria, too. and all the at
tempts to introduce white labor have
failed. Good feeling and mutual con-
fidence, with division of the Offices, are
reported between the races in this re-
gion, and only the colored people can
survive the pestIlentlal exhalations in
tiiIing the soil. Political interests will
not stand in the way of its develop
ment by negro hands.

so far from costing 100000, Irvine
plant can be established in the state
prison at a cost not exceeding S25, 900,
and that with the aid of convict labor
the farmers of the state can be supplied
with binding Irvine at price that will
aggregate saving of hundreds of thou
sands of dollars annually to the farmers.
There is a big discrepancy between
these two reports. and the people OF
Minnesota are interested in finding out
which is correct.
The GLOBE has no disposition to pre-
Judge the matter, but is entirely willing
to await developments. Nor are we in
clined to inflict ceusure unless we are
absolutely sure that censure is merited.
the action of the governor and his
prison board commission is open to crit
icism; and in that spirit of frankness
and fairness which characterizes all of
the GLOBES discussions of public af-
fairs, we propose to point oLt wherein
the governor and his commission have
erred. 1t is asserted by the Alliance
authorities, and not denied by the gov
ernor or his commission, that the re-
port of the prison board commission
was based entirely upon information
furnished by members of the Irvine
trust. No other sources of information
were sought for or made available; but,
simply upon showing made by men
whose interest it was to discourage COM
petition, the governor decided that it
was not advisable to establish Irvine
plant in the Saltwater prison.
We submit that this was not fair
treatment to the farmers, nor was it in
accordance with the businesslke meth
DDS which the people of the state had a
right to expect from a chief magistrate
who prides himself upon his business
like administration of state affairs.
Another matter which is fairly sub
ject of criticism is the injunction of
secrecy imposed by the governor upon
the alliance officials when they brought
their discoveries to him. We say it to
the governors credit, and Say it cheer
fully. that he manifested disposition
to undo the wrong by promptly appoint
ing new commission with instructions
to further prosecute investigations, and
that he appointed prominent members
of the alliance on that commission. But,
as we have said. there is no occasion for
secrecy in this matter. 1t is something
in which all the people of this state are
equally interested. Nor is it that kind
of business in which secrecy is an ele-
ment of success. as would be the case in
Superior real estate deal or the organ
ization of new street railway scheme,
or something Of that sort. But, Oh the
contrary, it is business in which pub
licity is the prime element, because it
affects every man alike and concerns
interests which are essentially public
affairs. The more publicity that is given
to this investigation the less chance will
there be for deception or for skulldug
gery,

was as red and wrlnkled us smoked

witness, ''you know my name as we'll
as know yours"
"Never you mind what | know or
| what don't know" was the caution
given with magisterial severity. II ask
the question in my official capacity, and
you're bound to answer it under OATH"
With cOntemptuOuS snort the wit

proceeded:
Where do you live?"
"Wal, l snumn calculated the old
man. why" he continued. appealing
to the laughing listeners, "Pve lived in

ing to the justice, ''an' b'gosh, to hear
him go on you'd think"
'Silence!" Numbered the irate magis-
trate. ANSWER my question or I'll fine
you for contempt of court"
Alarmed by the threat, the witness
named his place of residence, and the
examination went on.

"What do you do for living?'
''Oh, get out, Squire! just as if you
don't know that tend gardens in the
