AppRECIATIvE CONSTITUENTS

Flies are pestiferOus insects, and they
swarm even about things as sweet and
inoffensive as sugar barrel. There
are few attractive objects which are
entirely free from their presence. But
if ANYBODY has ever detected any flies
on SAMUEL PETERSON, senator from
Brown county, he will do the cause OF
science a favor by coming out and say
ing so.
The GLOBE is glad that Senator Pc
TERso1's constituents appreciate him.
His district ought to have sent Demo
crat to the last legislature: but the man
who years ago prevented the election
OF WILLIAM WINDOW to the United
States senate, by his own right hand
and his holy arm, charmed the offspring
of ALEXANDER FARNEsE, and they
wisely decided that he was the repre-
sentative for them.
He has made an interesting record
for himself in the upper house, and not
! the least valuable of his services was
his persistent advocacy of the MCHALE
bill This was just what was to be eX-
! pected of one of his character. He saw
as with a Owning eye~the horrors OF
the unrestricted and independent ballet,
and he did what in him lay to arrest
the free coinage OF sin which is nightly
perpetrated at our Minnesota theaterS.
/ The GLOBE has watched the uneQua!
fight of this good man against lewd aud
| lasciYi0uS conduct in females, and if il
has not heretofore called public atten-
ton to it as conspicuously as 1t has to
Senator DEANS wres;le with sparring
mills. it has not been because it was not
equally proud OF his moral stamina.
Nothing, therefore, has ever done the
soul of this paper more good than to see
that the meu who elected him have pub
licly Endorsed his course III this impOr-
tant matter.
1t is only surmisal, but internal
evidence would suggest that JOHN
LIND must be the author of the letter
of commentator To Senator PETERSON
for his vote on behalf OF the MCHALF
bill which the GLOBE published yester
day morning, JOHN LIND knows
about the wickedness of the ballet If
anybody does, because he has lived Ill
Washington, where such things are
thoroughly discussed by the monitors
of our national morality. He is right
in saying that its influence is baneful.
He is right in applauding Samuel Pc
TERsoN Tor trying to save the countr!
from its pollution. He is particularly
right IN urging the senator from Brown
county to keep right on until every
shameless VENUS wears a proper bod
ice. and every CLEOPATRA throws
shawl about her refulgent shoulders.
Nothing reflects greater glory on :
state than to have senator like SAN
UEI. PATERSON, who does stand up fo
modesty in other people, unless it is t
have a congressman like JOHN LIND
who slaps him Oh the back with enthu-
siastic Endorsement of his courage.

A BIRDS EYE VIEW.
Work Accomplished by the
Legislature in the Line Of
General Laws.
A Few Meritorious Measures
Ran the Gauntlet of Both
Houses,
But the Result Is Away Below
the Anticipations Of the
Farmer Legislators.
Ninety General and Eight
Hundred Special Bills
Have Become Laws.

What have they done? What has been
accomplished? are questions uppermOst
in the minds of citizens now the legis-
lature has adjourned. 1t is generally
conceded that the Alliance legislature
comes immeasurably below what was
expected. The Alliance Legislators are
aware of it, and for that reason are now
explaining why ''they have left undone
those things which they ought TO have
done, and done those things which they
ought not to have done" Altogether
: $500 bills were introduced, as against
300 bills in the preceding legislature.
The bulk of the local bills-about 800 of
them--passed both houses; but in all
only ninety general bills ran tn e
gauntlet of the two ends of the
legislature. Among these ninety gen
eral bills will be found some useful leg
lSIation There is the HOmpe railroad
bill, the proposed amendment to the
constitution prohibiting all special leglS-
lation, as we'll as an amendment proVld-
ing for the taxation and assessment OF
telegraph and telephone lines. The
bill extending all over the state the
Australian election law, by which vot-
ers are required to mark cross opposite
the name of every candidate voted for
law to regulate the admission to the
bar of the state. another to tax the out
put of mining companies, to regulate
building and loan associations, re-
vision of the General Statutes, raising
the age of consent from ten to fourteen
years, creating state refunding COM
mission for the Minnesota railroad
bonds. There were also the following
meritoriOuS bills.

IN 1899.

National politics is assuming interest
ing aspects, and the relations between
Mr.. HARRISON and Mr.. BLAINE are as
much matter of popular interest as
the rumored differences between Mr..
CLEVELAND and Mr.. HILL. The presi-
dent is Off OH a junketng tour Of great
magniiicence and extent. accompanied
by the royal family. There is general
impression that the less this great man
shows OF himself, the better he is apt to
fare in popular favor. 1t is a pleasant
experience, however. for chief magiS
trate to travel about his domain. and to
receive the evidences Of respect which
his position carries with it. 1t is also
good thing for the country to be able to
meet its president face to face, and to
renew its feelings Of loyalty and regard
for his exalted office. The GLOBE is
not inclined to criticise Mr.. HARRISON
for his journey to the SeabOard, whether
he makes it simply for the pleasure.
there is in it, or because he thinks 1t
will help his ambitions for the future.
Meanwhile, at Cincinnati, JAMES u.
BLAINE, he of the timely sunstrUke, re-
ceives the enthusiastic homage OF

ercion and monopoly. They are for
him en- maSSe. and the mention Of his

The duty of the Democracy at this
hour is clear SAMUEL J. TILDEN was
elected president after a reckless Re

power. Eight years later GROVER

popular rebuke TO extravaganza and un

will fight an enemy loaded down witt
the Odium of a billion-dollar congress:
and of force bill. If the battle can be
waged along this line, it is to lose faitl

must triumph over the hosts of sectlona

the latter may choose As their standard

GLOBE TOWER SHOTS.

The frequency of Nine. Dis Debar's bids
for notoriety is simply appalling. Her APP
pearance on the stage in the character of
Cupid, and her apparently insincere protest
against wearing tights were subjects for uni
versal discussion for a rev weeks, and then
gave way to the suicide story. Now, on top
of all this she tries to tell the public that she
is going TO California under the patronage or
Senator Stanford. This latter tale Is as false
as it is offensive. II is not only an outrage
Gus insult to senator Stanford but direct
reflection upon his mental faculties. This
Dis Debar person is not crazy-she is simply
coarse, vulgar and nauseating to respectable
people.

executive committee with an itemizcd state
meut showing the receipts and disbursements

The unparalleled nerve of the commit
tee is brought out in holder lines by the
adoption of q resolution refusing to
recognize the state central campaign
committee. The resolution will speak
for itself:
Resolved, That the committee appointed
| in July last by joint convention of the
| Farmers Alliance and certain real or pre-
tended representatives of city labor organiza-
| tons of which burlington Phelps was APP
| pointed chairman, was purely campaign
| committee to represent the combination IN

| although il contains many excellent gentle
men it has no right whatever at this time to
| set itself up now as the peer and rival OF the
| executive committee of the State Farmers
| Alliance, and thus make our organization o
| double-headed concern, and that any such
| course means the diversion and destruction
| of theState Alliance.
Resolved, that while we are in
| favor of an independent politica
l-psrty we call upon all friends of the
Alliance on said committee, or other
wise, to diseountenance any effort so made
| to create a side Issue TO be possibly manipu

SAN RAFAEL, Feb. 10. - The closing
scenes in the trial of Lee Doom, charged
with the murder of William n. Shenton, on
December I'd, were enacted in the Superior
Court to-day before Judge Murphy. The
case has attracted much attention here on
account of the cold blooded manner in
which the murder was committed, and the
courtroom has been crowded daily since the
commencement of the trial.
This morning the interest had not abated
in the least, and before 10 o'clock, the hour
for opening court, the room was crowded.
Judge {. Ben Darwin, for the defen Sc, be-
gan his closing statement to the jury shortly
after 10 o'clock aud did not conclude till
time for the noon recess.
AT l 80 o'clock the courtroom was again
crowded, and when Attorney J. n. Z. VIII
son began the closing statement for the
prosecution fully 800 people were in attend
ancc, over fifty of the audience being ladies'.
ing his remarks many in the room were af-
fected TO tears. He reviewed the case in
every detail. Judge Murphy charged the
jury, and at 4:l0 o'clock they went to the
jury-roOm. The minutes flew by, and con-
trary to expectation there was no sound
from the iury-rOom, but at $40 o'clock, two
hours and half after leaving the jury-boX
the first knock was heard, and the jury told
the Sheriff TO notify Judge Murphy that
they had arrived at a verdict. A few min
utes later they were ushered into court and
gave verdict of murder i'll the first degree
Judge Murphy announced that he would
pronounce sentence on Friday at 10 O'Clock.
Inc verdict meets with general satisfaction
with our people. After the verdict Doom
was met by a correspondent, but did not
care TO say anything in regard to his case,
except That lie was aware of his fate and
could not do or say anything against il.

MOVEMENTS OF THE STORM.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The tongue Of
the low pressure that extended from the
Gulf to Iowa Sunday morning developed
into a severe storm over Iowa, since
which time it passed over the Lakes and
is now central over Maine. 1t has been
attended by heavy snow in the Northern
and rain in the Southern sections of the
country, with a cold wave and decided
northers in the Southwest and billiards in
the Northwest. The cold area reached the
Atlantic Coast to-day, with fair weather. eX-
cept continued local SHOWS in the Lower

DISHONEST PRACTICES,
The Government Robbed by Federal
Court Officials.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The sub-com-
mittee of the House Committee on Judiciary.
which spent some time last session investi-
eating the charges of illegal practices in the
Federal courts In various parts of the
country, submitted lengthy report to the
tuil committee to-day. The report tells of a
general suspension of sentences pronounced
Tor violations of the timber-culture laws
principally in the districts of West Virginia
and Northern Georgia, and in the northern
middle and southern districts of Alabama.
thus encouraging the methods of fee-makiug
practices by United States District Altar
neys, Marshals, etc.
The evidence shows, says the report, that
IN some parts of the country men are in
duced by Deputy Marshals and United
States Commissioners to make complaints
against each othor for violation of the in
ternal revenue and timber laws: they are
arrested by the Deputy Marshals and
brought before the commissioners, where
after hearing they are bound over to an
pear before the court after becoming bail
1or each other and appearing before the
court as uelendants, witnesses and bail. A
large number OF witnesses are summoned in
every case, the Federal officers charging for
every petty service, increasing the mileage
oy unnecessary trips and pocketing the al
lowance intended for witnesses and others
Inc United States Commissioners, by these
from $1,000 to $4,000.
Commissioner Hallet of Boston, Mass. is
criticized for obtaining fees by practices
such as these. The report says that most
OF these prosecutions are frivolous, and if
prosecuted In the courts would be frowned
on. The report reviews, in detail. iIlegaI
practices existing elsewhere than in Boston
ana recommends the substitution Of salaries
Tor fees, as the only method of putting an
END TO the corruptions of the fee system.
The practice prevailing in Boston of al
lowing court clerks and deputies to natural
lZe foreigners, charging fee ranging from
81 TO 81 for each Step of process, is con-
uemned III strong terms. Tue sub-commIt-
tee recommends legislation for other phases
