parts, and the parts in relation to each

So simple are the instructions, and so
great are the rewards that there is no
reason why persons, who are otherwise
well informed, should remain longer in
their dense ignorance of Browning. We
expect to see clubs formed to pursue
the study OF ms works and they should
adopt the Boston Globes rules of pro-

The Clipper says.
There IS a great deal said of the
dignity of labor which falls flat and
meaningless, because 50 few people

consists. There IS no dignity IN the

HOW A GLUE HELPS.

In view of the rather depressed condi-
ton of the base ball industry, the Des
Moines Register earnestly eXhorts the
people Of that city to renewed effort to
encourage and sustain their home club.
1t takes the view that professional
ball team is help to that city. 1t has
place in the Western association, which
lis a certificate of municipal, enterprise
and standing that is as good as gold all
over the United States" The Register
classes Its city as the smallest in the
league except Sioux City, and the rela-
ton of the club puts the city in associa-
ton with st. Paul, Minneapolis, and
the other cities of their class, in the
public mind. Cities, like individuals,
are known by their associations. The
live and progressive great cities take it
by the hand. as it were. and show
it around. The advertising it Sc
cures in this way and the keep
ing up of club that comes to the front
rank, are worth thousands of dollars to
the city. In its view, the enterprise and
spirit of any of the places represented
in the association are very considerably
related in general estimation to the
standing of tile club in the league. 1t
is possible that there is more in this Des
Moines view than has been realized,
and that the larger cities will find ad-
vantage in reviving their appreciation
of the national game, and especially
the team that represents each. 1t is not
believed that the game has lost any per-
manent standing, and it may be we'll
for this locality to revise its bearings in
this matter and see that it is holding an
advanced position.

AN ERROR CORRECTED.

The most watchful and alert newspaper
cannot exercise so vigilant supervision
over its telegraphic news columns but that it
is constantly subject to imposition on the
part of its correspondents. Telegraphic
news is received usually at late hour of the
night, when it is impossible for the most con-
sentative and careful editor to verify or to do
other than act upon the faith of his CORE
spondent and print the information as cor
rect. The GLOBE has, as whole, as reliat lie
phalanX of correspondents throughout
Minnesota as a newspaper could select; but
it sometimes chances in this, as in other
newspaper offices, that its correspondent is
innocently derelict. A case in point is
found in special to the GLOBE from
Owatonna, printed on the 10th inst,
relative to the elopement as alleged
OF Mrs PERRY RoLFE and Mr.. A. E.
BULsoN Jr., a travelling man. The telegram
was printed III all faith as true, but the
GLOBE has assurances from those who should
know that it is entirely Untrue. Her friends
and relatives give the assurance that Mrs.
RoLFE has gone East on visit to friends,
and there is abundant proof that Mr.. BULsoN
was not at OWatonna at the time, and knew
nothing of her departure. The GLOBE may
be unwittingly led into error i'll its CORE
spondent service, but it never hesitates to
exert itself to undo any unintentional injury
it may have inflicted, as in this case. The
publication of the 10Th is therefore retracted
in full, not as the result of any threat but in
the simple desire to mete out even handed
justice and to right any wrong however
trivial

COUNTS THE CENsus.

Just now cities that are specially am
bilious to show UP among the large
figures in the census may look with
more complacency upon the heather
Chinee who do not become citizens.
They help round out the official popu-
latiou. The Chinese minister at Wash
ington has advised the representative
of China at San Francisco to issue a
proclamation telling the Chinese about
the census and the questions they will
be obliged to answer. 1t does not APP
pear why there is more concern about
the Chinese than other alien sojourners.
1t is not stated proclamations are to
issue in other languages. The treasury
department lately sent couple of
dozen of them back to China at the ex-
pense of this government. They had
been struggled in from Mexico. If
that is to be the rule, there will be a
route through Mexico for those who
want to go back to their country with
out cost to them. John catches ON to
tricks about as fast as any civilized
man.

FOR HOME USE.

The congressional reports show that
amendments are being offered to the
MCKINLEY bill every day by Republi-
cans and promptly voted down by the
Republican majority. Whether the
parties offering the amendments vote
for them is not shown, nor is it neces-
sary presumption. They are not pre-
sented for adoption, but to make up a
record for home use. Some of them
come from Minnesota members, and
will be cited in the exigencies of the
campaign as evidences of fidelity to the
special measures desired by their con-
slituents. Most of these amendments
are to put on the free list or near it some
speciality. If any considerable number
of them were adopted, the tariff would
so far have its Republican features
eliminated. 1t is matter Of arrange
ment with the managers allow
ing these amendments to be Of
fered. The only cases in which
any are adopted are when they enlarge
the monopoly feature. Individually,
each Republican can go to his conStu-
cunts and relate his struggle to get out
of the bill the part particularly OBJ
iectionable and oppressive to them. He
did all he could for them, but failed.
OF course he voted for the bill finally, as
it was The party measure and intend
ment of the platform. This is all SIM
pie and lovely. 1t has worked in past
times, and the Republican politicians
have some reason to expect to be able
to still deceive and beguile the voters.
They fail to realize that the educational
work that has been going on is not the
mere inane witticism they have re-
garded it. The people have not been so
driven by the crowding income of the
results of their industry that they have
not had time to read and consider.
The Iowa oracle was not so far
out of the way when he asserted that
Republican literature was not the
chief popular pabulum as in other
times. They have had the stimulus of
financial. hustling, and are getting
to have the conditions under the pro-
tective policy pretty well understood,
if there is some doubt as to the theories.
There will be surprise at the directness
with which the intelligent farmers
will strike the core. The record of the
member will be measured by the bill
as his vote finally aids in its passage.
1t is apprehended by the interests to be
enriched by the exclusive field afforded
by the tariff, that this will be the last
opportunity to secure their kind of a
tariff, and they try to pack it with all
that it can pull through. They expect
that the next house will have large
majority of Democrats and repeal the
act, but the senate will be their fort
ress. The Republican majority is too
large to be speedily changed. Once
the iniquity is enacted, the senate will
save it from repeal. This is the Re-
publican expectation.

TAKEN UNDER AMUSEMENT.
KemmIer's Case Before the SUI
Dreme Court

WASHINGTON. May 20. The appIica-
Kemmier, under sentence Of death by
electricity, was heard in the supreme
court of the United States to-day.
Roger M. Sherman, counsel for Kemm-
ler, who made the application, ap-
peared for the condemned murderer.
He based his argument on the foul
teenth amendment to the federal con-
stitution, which provides that "no
state shall make or enforce any law
whic h shall abridge the privilege or i'm
munities of citizens of the United
States; nor shall any state deprive any
person of life, liberty or property with
out due process of law" and on the
eighth amendment, which provides that
''crnel and unusual punishment
shall not be inflicted" Every
seat in the court room was
filled, but there was no crowding
such as prevailed yesterday when the
case was to have been heard. Ex-Attor-
ney General Garland, eX-Secretary Bay
ard, several senators and representa-
tives, and Attorney General Tabor. of
the state of New York, were within the
bar of the court. Mr.. Sherman ex-
planned the circumstances in which the
writ of error was brought. I'VE as
sume," said he, with entire confidence
that the determination of questions
which the decisions of this court have
left open will not be reached in this
case upon the present motion, but upon
the return to the writ and in due course
of law" Mr.. Sherman contended that
the infliction of death by electricity was
cruel and unusual, and. therefore, with
out due process of law. The supreme
court reserved its decision in the Kemm-
Ter case and adjourned until Fri day.
