THE GLOBES WORK.

No man ever yet perfected great in
vention, or enumerated for the first time
a profound moral truth for the iDspira-
ton Of overburdened humanity, but
that, even While he was yet bowling in
response to the worlds plaudits, some
one has arisen in the audience and an
nOunced his ability to prove that there
was nothing new about the discovery.
All of ADAM SMITHS theories of polit-
ical economy, according to such critics.
can be found elaborated in the works of
earlier writers, and the telephone and
the telegraph have been common prop
erty since the time of the food. There
is no reasoning with such people. In the
ancient triumphal professions one of
their class used to ride beside the vic
torious consul to remind him that he
was only man. and no modern enter
tainment is complete without them.

IN THE LEGISLATURE.

Much attention has been drawn to the
fact that WILLIAM A. WALLACE. the
last senator elected by the Democrats in
Pennsylvania, announces himself can
didate for election to the lower house of
the state legislature. He is one of the
large men of the state, and has been
spoken of as presidential material. He
was valued member of the legislature
before he went to the senate, and his
proposed return is highly commended.
1t would be fortunate for any state if
the men of largest experience and whose
vision had been broadened by serv-
ice in the higher bodies would
give their requirements to the
benefit of the state. Legislatures are
too commonly largely filed by persons
of inexperience and limited ability.

cratic gains in states like Massachusetts.
New York and Iowa. The Republicans
have moved West, and their places been
supplied by immigrants who vote with
the Democrats. Losses in the rural dis
tricts of New York are accounted for I'D
this way. Boston has become a new
Dublin. and the $4,000 majority in Iowa
has gone to the Dakotas and the West
ern regions. The theory, however, af-
fords the dreadful suspicion that the
migrating Republicans turn Democrats
on their journey, as they do not figure
much in the Republican voting in the
new regions.

Twin CITY MAYORS.

Washington Post Dec IL
The Twin Cities. Minneapolis and st.
Paul, are represented in Washington by
two good-looking officials, Mayor Win
ston and Mayor Smith, both of the DEM
ocratic persuasion and both thoroughly
imbued with the idea that the party
would be a big gamer by having the ma
tional convention held in st. Paul.
Mayor Smith is tall. broad-shouldered,
lOng-bearded and jovial in demeanor.

NO MATTER WHO.

The fact that the friends of BLAINE
do the brass band and vocal business,
aud some Of his poses are artful and
catchy, has led to common impre ssion
that he would be very much the strong
est man that can be nominated at Min
neapolis. When. however, the basis of
the impression is sought, the finding is
small. The drum beats and shouts were
just as loud in 1881. But it is learned
that the quiet, conservative element
that never has sore throat from vocal
enthusiasm does 4 good deal of voting,
and is quite apt to turn the scale. The
opposition to him in this class is sub
Stantially the sameas in former periods.
1t is doubtful If be is as strong before
the country as he was III 1854 and 1888.
The independent press and voter will
still be opposed to him, unless the
Democrats rCpel them by a compiled
ton of issues or an unacceptable NOM
inatiOn, In the states where BLAINE
would add to the Republican strength
the Democrats have small hopes. There
are vastly more Democrats in the
country than there were ever before t
r general election. He could gain
nothing from them on his limited and
special reciprocity schemes as against
the liberal and more consistent tariff
reduction principles of their own party.
In fact, this attachment to the pro-
lection kite would repcl more of
the extremist than it would at
tract from any other quarter. BLAINE
could not be elected without the vote or
New York, and it is understood that
many Irish voters who were for him
before are not now. The Mugwumps
are numerous there. and have not gained
confidence in him. Then there would
not be much hope for him in Indiana, rs
the HARRISON element weuld be dis
satisfied. Not to renominate HARRISON
would be virtual confession that his
administration has been failure. The
country had been disappointed in the
service the party has afforded, but will
try new men if the people will give it
another chance. 1t matters little 10
the Democrats whether BLAINE or
HARRISON is nominated at Minneapo-
lis.

ANTi-GRAIN GAMBLING.
What Senator Washburn Says OF
His Option Bill.

Ills OPNAOsi
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator w.
ID. Wash6urn today introduced in the
United States senate bills for an act
granting pension to Mrs. Charlotte 0.
Van Cleve, widow of Gen. Van Cleve. of
500 per month: also bill for the cree
ton of a public building in Saltwater.
Mimi, and a bill defining options ,
and futures and imposing special
taxes on dealers therein. Mr. WASH
burn, speaking OF the latter bill, said as
follows: AT the last congress thousands
of petitions were received from
agricultural. industrial and business
organizations and individuals all over
the country and especially from the
Northwest. asking legislation upon this
important subject. The bill introduced
today is substantially on the same lines
as tile ButterwOrth bill, introduced in
meet the objections that were raised in
the discussion in the senate. |
do not believe the people of
this country realize the disas-
trous results arising from gambling
in wheat and other food products,
for all this dealing in options and fut-
ureS is nothing more than gambling. 1t
is hardly possible to estimate the loss to
the agriculturists of the West arising
from the maniDuationS in the different
produce exchanges of the country. 1t
seems as though some measure should
he devised to prevent this iniquity. So
far as am concerned. propose TO push
this matter IN season anu out until con
gresS passes upon it. think that it
will meet with very general favor in
both houses OF congress. l find that
people are talking about ii more and
more"
The articles included in the bill the
two terms are wheat, corn, rye, oats,
barley, cotton and all other farm prod
ucts. The bill provides that dealers in
futures and uDtinnS therein shall pay
annually tax OF $1,000. and the further
sum OF five cents pound on cotton and

1t is the frequent practice in some of
the states, especially in New England.
1t is said that in New Hampshire there
is rarely session of the legislature that
does not contain several ex-cOngress-

quence. a higher character is given the
body, and the ability it contains expe-

Hon. NJ. J. DAILY, of Perham. passed
through St Paul yesterday on his way home
from Chicago stopping off long enough
to dine at the Merchants with his brother
d. D. DAILY, of this city. Mr.. Daily is the

of the new Seventh district He is an elo-
quent talker and an able attorney He is
thoroughly posted Onthe political drift in his
section of the state, and takes no stock in the
claims of the Republicans in regard to the
Alliance
Il do not think that the nomination of
Knute Nelson Will do the Republicans anv
good in Outer Tail county, remarked Mr.
DAILY. "Of course, they are counting on win
ming upon winning back the Scandinav!ans
by this nomination, but they will fail. 1t is
mistake to think that the voters who be-
long to the same nationality will vote for him
on that account. The best proof of this is
found in the election returns of the past few
years. | have seen Germans win against
popular Scandinavians and by the same or
larger majorities than were given the balance
OF their tickets. The Alliance leaders are
strong men up our way, and they do not seem
to be at all worried over the prospects Of Mr.
Nelson's nomination.
Mr. DAILY was elected prosecuting attorney
of Otter Tail as u Democrat on fusion tick
ct, put up by the Democrats and Alliance
men of the county and received a majority
of nearly 1000. lie did not care to discuss
the probable action of these two parties in
that county next yoar, but from other

four members of the legislature and the

MEN AND MEASURES.


j. Russell Parsons, of Hoosiek Falls, n. Y,
who is stopping at the Ryan, is one of the
most distinguished lawyers of the Empire
state, and, while not politician in the sense
of being either an oficeseeker or ofieeholder
takes lively interest in New York politics
and is staunch Democrat Although a loyal
New Yorker, he is not in favor of the ma
tional Democratic convention being held in
the big metropolis, for the reason that he
thinks the best interests of the party demand
that it be held in the West.

And of all the cities in the West" said
Mr.. Parsons. Il prefer St Paul as the place
In which the next president shall be NOM

a resident of New York, but it is
all right. What does conven-
ton amount 10 in New York E?
1t would be absorbed, and the fact that it was

vention being held in this section. and here it
should come. have been doing little mis-
slonary work, and, while do not think that
this Will secure the convention for st. Paul.
am hopeful that it may do little good, and
It is my belief that the national committee
VIII decide.in favor of this city,"
i
Mr. Parsons is a man of decided convic-
lions and is not at all backward in express
ing what he believes. He is confident that
the Democrats will control both branches of
the New York legislature and boldly says
Republicans will not be allowed to steal any
thing while Gov. Hill is around. He is
an admirer of the Elmira statesman, as may
be seen from the following:
GOV. HILL" he said, stands there at Al
bany like mountain. The New York Trib-
une and other papers like il can yell corrup-
ton, thief and everything they like. but they
cannot move him an inch. The complexion
OF the legislature will be settled by the court
of appeals, and l am confident that the Dem
ocrats will have majority on joint ballot
How did the election of Speaker Crisp
strike the New York Democracy
Personally 1 favored Mills said the
New Yorker, 'but since the election of Crisp
am satisfied that it was good thing for the
party. Mr.. Crisp viii make a splendid
speaker, and the interests of the Democracy
Will not be lost sight of. OF course the Re
publican papers are very busy tying to make
1t appear that there is split in the party
over the speakership, but there is nothing in
hese reports"
who will be the Democratic candidate for
president next year?'
Il Go not think the candidate will come
from New York" responded Mr.. Parsons.
GOV. Hill is going into the senate where he
will make his mark. He will be the nominee
in 1896. Of course, if Mr.. Cleveland Is nomi-
mated he can carry New York. That is Ger
tain, but think the nominee will be an ont
side man. German or Russell 1t would be
good thiag 10 take candidate from New
England and place GOV. Boies, of Iowa, on
the ticket for second place. Russell is fine
man, and there is great deal more in the
talk about his candidacy than is generally
