THEY BLAME THE GLOBE.

The GLOBE started Merriam's boom
fol- vice president Wednesday. 1t has
a hard and dirty row to hoe, and we wish
it much pleasure in the job it has un-
n.-Fairmont News.
The st. Paul GLOBE dominates Gov.
Merriam for vice president on the Re-
publican ticket, and the News hurrahs
for Blaine. How will the Democracy
fare next year for an organ at the cap
ital at that rate?-ShakOpee Courier.
Tom Lowry starts boom for Merriam
for vice president, and the st. Paul
GLOBE strongly advocates it,. 1t hardly
seems proper for Democratic paper to
be making suggestions to the 9. o. D.,
but the Avalanche would most heartily
rejoice to see our young governor thus
hOnOred. Let that be the next work of.
the Twins, and his name will be OH the
ilst.-Sauk Center Avalanche.
When the GLOBE tried to make Mer-
RAM appear as proper man witha to
be the running mate of James q. Blaine
it didn't calculate that the brainy and
intellectual leader was at least deServ-
ing of companion on the ticket who
would possess some running strength
in himself, and not one who would
prove load for the head of the ticket.
New Ulm Review.
The st. Paul GLOBE of Dec. 2 was
just too funny for anything. 1t act
ually had the unheard-Of audacity 10
suggest and advise the Republicans to
nominate Bill Merriam for vice presl-
dent of the United States. Bill Mer-
RAM. who has done more than any ten
Democrats in the state to ruin the Re-
publican party, for vice PRESIDENT. Oh,
We gods. what mOckery is this Pres
ton Times.
The st. Paul GLOBE, the leading
Democratic paper in the Northwest,
nOmlnates w. X. Merriam for vice
president Oh the Republican ticket.
How would 1t do to put him on the
Democratic ticket? On the question of
tariff-the issue on which the next
presidential contest will be fought-the
governor has openly stated that he did
not know where he stood, but leaned
toward free trade. To hitch man of
Merrriam's caIiber with Blaine would
be like hitching together thorough
bred and scrub. In the campaign of
1883 Merriam ran $1,000 votes behind
his ticket, and lacked less than 5000
of being defeated i'll 1890. The GLOBE
is evidently working in the interest of
the Wright County Times.

PENSIONS FOR ALL.

There are no doubt some incidental
advantages in government that has its
center on a gilded pedestal, and not
down among the teeming masses.
Schemes to please the unthinking and
impress them that they are happy and
fortunate in being so we'll cared for NAV
be worked out. Even Russia tickles its
stolid agriculturists with its benignant
regard for their welfare in advancing
money on the crops. Germany is ex-
perimenting with device to keep the
superannuated from want, under GER
tain conditions. But the recently print
ed reports of consuls show the little
and staid country of Denmark in
the lead in the pension bust
ness. This aid is not confined to
those who have done the country
service in the army or public station.
All citizens, both native and naturalized.
above sixty years of age, are to be en-
titled to pension. That it is liberal
one is to be inferred from the language
of the act that ''all such persons are to
be supported and provided for during
their declining years, not as paupers,
but as pensioners, losing none of their
political rights" The exceptions are
criminals, persons of bad character or
the recklessly Improvident. In the ideal
state good citizenship will count as well
as special service in war or in civil
place. In the analysis it is found that
the state is indebted for its exist
ence and welfare TO the good cit
izen, in large measure, and
his claims should have recogni-
ton with the others. The service in
war may have larger claims from its
greater sacrifices, but the measure is
only relative. All who fill the role of
the citizen laudably have claims. The

YANKEE TROUBLE.

Connecticut has a traditional repute
for the broad phylactery business. At
one period the Sunday traveller oil the
highway was reasonably certain to find
a stopping place in Jail. A writer in
one of the magazines for the month re-
lates an incident where the Jealous
deacon who made the arrest was made
to suspect that he had taken in a small
poX victim, and his regard for the Sab
bath and humanity disappeared Iudi-
crously. The running of railroad trains
is still prohibited by law. But danger
of another sort has arisen by reason of
the enormous apple crop the past sea-
sou. The cider mills are all running
day and night. The farmers haul in
their apples, and for every ten BUSH
els take back a barrel of cider.
One mill owner will make 10000
barrels. The common one barrel
OF cider in the cellar will not
be lonesome, and the period when the
apple juice will be termed sweet cider
will be vigorously survived by the
contents of many barrels. Every Gel
lar will have enough barrels of alco-
hOlic cider after while to keep the
whole family on a jag the entire sea-
son. The prospect is causing great
alarm among the temperance people.
1t is urged that the apple growers turn
their cider into vinegar or interpose
some element to stay fermentation, but
they seem to have their heads set on APP
plejack. The only way to obviate such
direful conditions seems to be to cut
down the apple trees. That is a rem
edy that every farmer is willing to see
his neighbor adopt, but he will set out
a few more trees himself.

that ranking, as he did, as one of the

TWO GOOD STORIES.

J. NJ. Dickey was yesterday referring to the
trial of the celebrated Davis will case at Butte
City, Mont. last August. and incidentally
telling of the scenes in the court room in
which pagan Bob Ingersoll and Senator
Saunders figured as opposing counsel There
were frequent occasions for repartee between
the attorneys, among which the two follow
ing incidents were related
Col. Ingersoil was offering, in his bland
and pleasant manner. some testimony of a
character which had been ruled upon, but
which he desired to preserve in the record,
when Senator Saunders remarked to him:
WAS ever such innocence seen?" referring
to Ingersolrs innocent manner.
Col IngersolI replied: WAS ever such
guilt heard off, referring to his idea of the
position of his opponents in attempting to
probate the will.
Senator Saunders-Yes, it was once crucI-
fed.
Col. Ingersoll-Yes, two of them-one on
ach side
During a lull in the business of the court,
Col. Ingerson leaned back over his chair
and said, ''Senator, you ought to be good
''Whv:" asked the senator.
Because" replied the colonel. you will
want me to testify for you at the jud ymentr
Senator Saunders-I would have to get out
a commission to take your testimony, for
you would be out of or jurisdiction. and
would need to have the commission OH asnes-
