DULUTH KICKS VIGOROUSLY.
Uncle Sans National Park Scheme
Is Not ReIished.

Special to the Globe
DULUTH. Nov. %. The people of this
city are "up in arms" against the petit
ton to be sent to President Harrison ask
ing him to set aside about 5000, 900 acres
of valuable land in the northern part
of this state as forest reserve. 1t is
claimed here that it Is scheme to re-
tard the growth of Duluth by taking
away from the public domain an I'M
mense portion of her territory. The Pc
tition is headed by Gov. Merriam, and
signed by several prominent Minneapo-
lis lumbermen. Mr.. Majors, the United
States land office agent, will examine
the territory next summer, and will take
with him representatives from both Du-
luth and ST. Paul. 1t is asserted on
good authority that Senator Davis is
opposed to the scheme. The reserva-
ton is intended to include all but nine
townships Of Beltrami county, over
two-thlrds of Itasca county and nearly
One-half of st. Louis county. Every
body knows that portion of this terri
tory embraces some of the most fertile
lands in Minnesota, especially that part
drained by the Rainy river in the Rainy
lake region.

SPRINGER MEN sANGUINE.
The Illinoisan's Friends Claim He
Is Winner.


CHICAGO, Nov. %. - Congressman
Spr'nger's friends are becoming very
Sanguine of the Illinoisan'S ultimate
success in the speakeTship contest.
Last night Congressman Durburrow, of
Chicago, telegraphed from Washington:
I'VE are not not claiming too much
when we say that Mr.. Springer is now
entitled to rank abreast of either Mills
or Crisp. We have made careful esti-
mates of our forces, which show that
Springer now commands as many votes
as Crisp or Mills. The mail today
brought unexpected acquisitions to
Springer. Representatives who had
not been reckoned by us as hav-
ing a Springer tendency, sent I'M
solicited assurance that they would
support Springer. 1t will cause sur
prise when the names of these recruits
are made public. Their names cannot
be given yet, but they will be here Sat
urday to personally aid Mr.. Springer's
contest. New England is also going TO
contribute 10 Springer, nOtwithstand-
ing Mr.. Mills claim that he would con-
trol.the Northeastern states. We feel as
Sured OF having most, if not all, of the
Iowa, Wisconsin and Michigan delega-
lions, besides those of Illinois.

N. p. MINERAL LAND.
Commissioners Carter Makes an
ImpOrtaut Decision.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-Commission-
er Carter, of the general land office, has
rendered decision in the case of Rich
ard P. Barden and others against the
Northern Pacific Railroad Company.
The land in controversy is within the
grant of the company and was returned
by the surveyor general as agricultural
land. Subsequent to the date of the
filing of the map of definite location of
the road it was discovered to De mineral.
The contention of the company was
that as the land was not known to be
mineral at the date of the filing 1t
passed absolutely under the grant. The
commissioner, however, holds that the
discovery of the mineral character of
the land subsequent to the filing of the
map of definite location but before pat
ent issues, excerpts the land from the
grant. This case is now pending in the
United States supreme court on appeal
from the United States circuit court of
Montana.

CARLISLE INDORSED.
Congressman Breckenridge Backs
His Position.

l.
LEXINGTON, KY. Nov. 2S.-Col. Brock
enridge was asked to-day: "Have you
seen the letter of Mr.. Carlisle. and what
do you think of it?'' He replied, II
agree with Mr.. Carlisle in both para
graphs of his letter and it is substan-
TALLY the position that have taken in
public speeches and in private CONVEX
satiOns. On tariff reform we can elect
president and a majority in both
houses OF congress and only on that
issue. Il am a sincere bi-metalIist and
as the friend of the party of the
two metals, | am anxious to avoid
division in the Democratic party.
If we divide we not only lose tariff re-
form, but the silver question. The
election of Mr.. Mills will be the decla-
ration that the tariff issue is the ques-
ton upon which the presidential can
vass shall be brought. His defeat. no
matter by whom, will be accepted as
our declaration that we are not willing
to make that the issue and commit our
selves to the reform of taxation. This.
in my Judgment, will be calamitous, and
am therefore in favor of the election
of MIR. Mills"

KICK ON A RAILWAY.
Farmers Do Not Like a Great
Northern Order.


Special to the Globe
DEVILS LAKE, n. D., Nov. 2S.-Tbe
general order of the Great Northern
railway issued to local agents last night,
forbidding them to furnish cars for
the shipment of wheat to any but ele-
vators and actual farmers, has aroused
the farmers and business men of this
vicinity. and the discrimination against
track buyers is the general topic of con-
VersatIon. The farmers cannot, except
in very few cases, take advantage of the
order, and the consequence is to restrict
shipments to elevators. As most of the
farmers have to draw from ten to fifteen
miles. and are poorly supplied with
vehicles, and the freight rules require
them to load within twenty-four hours,
or pay So day for overtime. the intent
of the order is apparent.

Steam hid the wreck from the crowds
who ran out from the houses and stores
on the high bank on which ran the
street above. Miss Dollie Fisher, mad
dened by the pain, leaped from the win
dow, and was cut and slightly bruised.
Help came Immediately, and the
wounded were drawn out. One man,
Warren Potter, who was him
self slightly scalded, attempted to
pull Mrs. Mccoy from the car
and the flesh came off In great shreds
from the woman's arm. The baby of
Mrs. Mcdonald was scalded to death
and taken out of the smashed car
cook ed and blistered mass of flesh, al
most beyond recognition. At II o'clock
another search was commenced to find
the body to which the hand belonged.
There was no fire and few were injured
except by the escaping steam. Mrs.
Mcdonald and her two children oecu-
pied seats near the rear of the coach
and the babe was tOddling along the
aisles when the accident occurred, ac-
cording to one Of the eye witnesses. By

WANTS $4,000 DAMAGES.
Another Suit Against the Pas
sale News.

Alderman James MILLER of the Sixth
Ward the Plainfih--He Says That
his Character was Injured by Arti-
cles Publish ed I'm the Passatc Paper
--Said he was not Fit TO be Repub-
Iican.
(From Paterson Meas and Call June o.)
Alderman James Miller has retained
Lawyer q. M Ward to institute suit
against the Passaic City DAILY Meas
for $4,000 damages for libel. The sum-
mons IN the case was issued yesterday,
and will probably be served to-day by
stituted by the alderman for articles pub
lished in the paper some months ago when
he was indicted for bribery for which a
struck jury acquitted him.
Some of the articles that appeared the
alderman claims were detrimental to
his character they characterizing him as
being anything but fit man for men,
Der of the board of alderman as a repre-
sentative of the Republican party of the
city. In speaking of the Sixth ward
Representative the Meas of Passaic never
termed him with his proper name but
always added the prefix of Candy"
which was extremely undigniied to say
the least. Mr.. Miller felt very angry
about the articles at the time, some of
them being copied in other papers. He
had contemplated bringing suit at the
time of publication of the articles but
thought he would wait until he could
prove to the public his innocence of the
charges which probably moved the Pas
sale daily to publish what they did about
him. One of the strange features of the
case is that the Passaic paper is red hot
Republican sheet. and Mr.. Milleris also
Republican.
1t will be remembered that only last
Friday, eight of the petit jurors went
before Justice Weiss and caused the
arrest of Editor Dennis w. Mahoney. of
the same paper. for criminal libel in
making statements to the effect that the
whole jury had been fixed" in the inter-
est of Christian Grotsch and the indicted
dog-fghters.
1t is of rare occurrence that Republi-
can paper ever attempts to belittle rep
resentative of the party that it advocates
itself. The alderman thinks $50. 600
is little enough for damage the article
caused to his reputation and it is for that
amount his counsel Mr. z. NJ. Ward will
sue.
MIR. Ward has also been retained as
counsel for Mr.. Henry VanNess and sew
eral other jurors in their suit against the
Passaic Meas. Both cases come up for
trial at the September term of court.

Fifty Columns to Temperance!

During the past year the RECORD
has done more in the way of diff
fusing Temperance literature than
any other publication in the coun-
ty, by devoting more than fifty
columns space to that subject
alone. What have we prohtted by
it 2, Well, that is hard question
to answer in a moneyed sense
probably four dollars and a half.
What has it cost us? We decline
to answer, for the comparison is
too great. 1t has been con-
ceded that the matter furn-
ished has been excellent, and
we have been complimented for it.
But not line of type goes in a
newspaper without expense to the
proprietor. Temperance people
want temperance, but are not so
willing TO encourage it financially,
if we except the paying of an ex-
horter one hundred and fifty dol
lars per week, for talking an hour
or two a day to church members
who would be be offended if told
they needed that kind deterioration
The late Harry R. Wells said to
us one day: l have published the
best temperance paper the Efh0,
now dead "this county ever had
or will have; | have been subjected
to a great deal of criticism for this
and that; but l have had the sup
port OF scarcely 0ne-tenM of the ad-
vocates of morality and temper
anee." No wonder the Efho died.
The RECORD is not complaining
about the lack of support from
temperance adherents, but we do
consider it unreasonable and un-
kind for any christian to criticize
us for not booming in every issue
the temperance cause, local or 9TH
erwise. Last Monday our neigh
Dor, the Ne7oS, contained brilliant
reference to the Burdick meetings;
a few inches farther down in the
same column It gave typograph-
ical picture of two men drinking
at the North Star Hotel, and ex-
planned the meaning of the "clink-
ing of glasses. 1t requires money
to run newspaper, and the Nea0s
knows on which side its purse
strings hang.
We thoroughly believe in tenn
perance and morality, although we
do not publish what might be
termed a temperance paper, and
no matter from which side criticism
comes we shall continue to make
our belief known, when convenient
to do SO.
