A NEW PARLIAMENT.

1t is accepted as certainty that the
present parliament will bold its last ses-
sion this winter. The legal duration of
parliament is seven years, but prece-
dents and public sentiment are against
the completion of the entire term.
There has been no parliament this CEN
tury that has much exceeded six years
in duration, and the recent outglvingS
of Lord SALISBURY and the COnserVa-
tive ministers indicate that there will
DE 10 record breaking. Since the early
part of the last century the average con-
tlnuance of parliament has been thr ee
years and ten months. The present
one is in its sixth year, and will be dis
solved, it is anticipated, in time for an
election in 1892. There is no other COM
pIlSion than CUSTOM Lord SALISBURY
can, if he chooses, continue it to the
legal limit. By going to the country
again the party in power voluntarily
goes out with the chances very largely
againStitS success at the polls. Yet the
public mind has entire confidence that
a new parliament will be elected the
coming year. That is not an American
idea. The Republican party last ses-
sion went on with its measures just as
if the people had not condemned it.
There was no visible resignation of any
sort. But the English are attached to
custom, and would be shocked by
violation of one a century or two
old. The tendency, too, is to reduce
rather than extend the life of the
national legislature, for a body five or
six years old is not likely to reflect
present sentiment. The SALISBURY
administration has afforded a strong
government. and been specially vigor-
Gus in its foreign policy, but the recent
drift is toward the Liberals and GLAD
STONE. His computations from the re-
suits of the numerous bye elections had
the past year or two show a considera-
bic Liberal majority to be expected in
the next parliament. The wrangleS
among the Irish home rulers have had
no retarding effect upon this tendency,

TO CHECKMATE CHILL.

The latest move in the game OF di-
plomacy between the United States and
Chilli is outlined in a dispatch from
Washington. The tenor OF this dis
patch indicates desire on the part of
President HARRISON to checkmate the
hot-blooded ChiIians early in the game.
Their most effective war vessel, the
captain Pratt, is being built in France,
and cannot be completed within two
months. In the meantime, a declara-
ton of war by the United States
against Chill would, under treaty codes
with France, prevent that country from
turning over to the ChiIians the TO rmid-
able Captain Pratt. Thus handicapped,
the vain little South American republic
would be at great disadvantage, and,
probably, willing to sue for peace
on almost any terms. Although
the navy department exists in a
chronic war mood, it seems to
be the candid opinion of navy,
and also army officers. that some de-
cislve action, like the one suggested. is
the most efficacious means of prevent
ing great loss of life and property in
Tic INCEPTION OF war WHICH would
necessarily be Of short duration. Once
delivered to the Chilians. the Captain
Pratt could undoubtedly do great dam
age to New York and other cities on our
Atlantic seaboard. Prompt, decisive
action on the part of the United States,
at an early day. would necessarily lead
to diplomatic discussion as predatory to
actual warike demonstrations 10y Chill.
1t is thought in Washington that the
president will, at an early day, send
message to congress strongly urging
prompt measures at once, and it is more
than likely that congress would hardly
hesitate to act upon the presidents sug-
gestiOn. in view of the fact that the
present attitude of Chill is really menac-
ing to the interests Of our commerce
and exposed cities on our seaboard.

A BAD PRACTICE

A suit like this was recently decide d
in all Illinois trial court. A rich old
man married girl younger than his
youngest daughter. During his life he
gave her his promiSsory note for So, 900.
which she discounted at a bank. 1t
came due after his death, and his chill
dreu sought to make it charge on the
wife's share of his estate. There was
some conflict of evidence, but the court
decided that the children had not made
out their case, and wound up by allow
ing the note to be proved up like any
other debt of the decedent's.
There is nothing notewOrty thus far,
but, having disposed Of the matter di-
rectly submitted to him, the Judge pro-
ceeded to add some remarks on his own
account. He said that he sympathized
a good deal with the opposing view;
that he disapproved Of the marriage of
the old man and the young woman;
that, in his opinion, the alliance was a
mercenary one on the wite's part and a
foolish one on the husbands; that the
Wife had been needlessly extravagant,
and that he was sorry he could not have
decided the other way, but that law was
law, and, much against his will. he had
to follow it.
Now all this supplement is a fragrant
example Of a dangerous and growing
tendency of our trial courts. Every
day or two we take up the newspapers
and read that some litigant has been
roasted" as the public puts it, by the
judge who has been called upon to pass
on his case. Sometimes it is the de-
feated party who receives this castiga-
ton, and sometimes, as in this instance,
the prevailing one. But the bench has
of late assumed a right 10 administer
moral lectures and to express opinions
on questions of ethics and personal
conduct which was unheard of during
our earlier judicial history.
The GLOBE ventures to suggest some
what brutally that such aspects of the
| cases brought before them are none of
the judges business. They are not
hired to be moral censors, and the ref
Ormation of society is not part Of their
duty. A man goes into court as plant
if OF defendant to secure a. determine
ton of what his obligations may be. 1t

LIKES SMALL FEET.

As the reception of Sir EDWIN AR
MOLD, the English poet, journalist and
all-around man of literary versatility, in
st. Paul the last of the month. will be
something of social event. it may be
of interest to some to know that he
goes into ecstasies over small hands and
feet, when possessed by ladies, of
course. In his new book, "Japonica,"
he rises to glowing height over these
appendages of the japanese female. 1t
is understood that he finds room for a
good deal of admiration over his OBJ
servatiOns in this relation in the United
States. A decided contrast is had with
the ladies of England in the de-
velopment of these members of
the system. As a rule English
ladies live more out doors and are more
athletic. Their hands and feet CORE
spond to the size of their bodies. The
poets soar over the exceptions to the
rule, but it is doubtful if the average
woman in that country cares TO repress
the normal tendencies in the way of
feet. They do not use shoes that will
give occupation TO the chirOpodist. The
society woman in the United States
who does not have corns is said by those
with means of information to be ex-
ceedingly rare. From Arnold's stand
point there is no civilized country IN
the world where the hands and feet
come so near the ideal of beauty.
Still, with all Difference to his esthetic
tastes and sense of the beautiful, it is
insisted that Nature understands the
true relations between the hands and
feet and the entire frame. The cOneep-
ton of proportion and the beautiful in
the original models has not been i'm
proved upon. The sense of fitness re-
volts at any seeming inadequacy for
their mission in the development of
these attractive parts of the human ami
NAL. Still. Sir EDWIN will see much to
excite his enthusiasm in manual and
pedal way in st. Paul.

MONKEY TALK.

A New York scientist thinks he has
discovered the language of monkeys.
When he has it fully at his command he
might utilize it in writing a society
novel.-Chieago Times.
DR.. Garner claims to have discovered
that monkeys talk about the weather.
The type OF weather Jerry Rusk fur
nlshes is enough to make clans refer to
1t with scorn.-ChieagO Times.
Prof. Garner says that monkeys talk
about the weather. This tends to con-
firm the general impression that there
mas been altogether too much monkey
ing with the weather lately.-Chicago
Mail.
Prof. Il. L. Garner, who has devoted
years to the study of the characteristics
OF monkeys and apes, IS satisfied that
they possess language, some knowl-
edge OF which may be acquired by man
and enable him to communicate with
tnem lntelllgently. His purpose now is
to visit Africa in the Gaboon region,
where gOrillas abound, with view to a
1urther analysis of Simian speech, and
possibly TO the production of a lexicon
OF it.-Brooklyn Eagle.

A RUSX TOWN

st. Paul is very, very busy at the
present writing. 1t has recently organ
lied a new commercial club. with
membership of nearly thousand and
headquarters in the Germania Life In
surance company's building. This has
consumed no little Of the surplus ener-
giles of many Of our public-spirited citi-
Zens, and there is much work still to be
done before this project can be safely
left to run itself. A business mems
union has also been formed, the sub
ScriberS to which are legion. and which
every month is accu mulating a fund to
be used for the en- enlargement Of local
industries! All this takes much thought,
involves much detail and adds several
hours to the laboring limit of hundred
already Overburdened men. Quite out
side of either of these enterprises three
quarters of million dollars have been
raised for investment in the capital
stock of the Walter A. Wood company,
which, under the direction of resident
capitalists, proposes to establish plant
in st. Paul employing $500 men. The
beginnings of such an undertaking are
close attention If success is to crown
the scheme. 4 new tannery and new
car wheel factory have also been Sc
cured, and some of our merchants are
busy looking after their affairs. Monday
night it was finally settled that we
should have a new auditorium, capable
of seating 10000 people, and to be COM
pleted within six months from date.
Here. again, is room for eXertiOn. The
abandonment of the present market
house, which the, auditorium plan re-
quireS. makes it necessary to select a
new site for a public market, and to
equip it for general use. Last of all,
the com mittee Oh promotion, consisting
of twenty-five or thirty busy men, meets
every Saturday at o'clock, and is
bending its energies to bring the ma
tional Democratic convention of 1892 to
this city.
Did ever town have bigger or more
absorbing contracts on its hands than
these? The Clio BE thinks not. Work
enough is here laid out to fill all the
leisure moments which an army of eff
ficient workers might find in the course
of many day. And yet, if Mr.. Low

duty. We are busy, but we are not so

A PECULIAR CASE.

New Hampshire has the habit of hang
ing convicted murderers after giving
them full year after the sentence IN
which to fit them for angelic associa-
tons. The dominant theology of the
state claims to be able to do more rapid
work, but the statute demands a full
year. 1t is notable that for some rea-
son the murders in that staid. conserva-
tive community make up in atrocity for
what they lick in frequency. ALNlY,
recently sentenced for the murder of
the girl who would not marry him. was
ingenious i'm his fiendishness. A Singu-
laI case is now on trial. ISAAC SAW
TELLE murdered his brother, and con-
fesses his guilt in view of very

save his own life The killing was
done very near the Maine state line.

TROUBLE IN IOWA

The demand just put forth in the
name of the Young Mems Republican
clubs in Iowa that the party shall con-
tinue that standing pose by the prohibi
ton law makes trouble again. The
managers and policy men of the party
have grown very weary of this attitude
and have been whispering to the Dem
Ocrats that if they viii be little con-
siderate for them in fixing up a new svs-
tenn they will not stand in It's way.
They say to the Democrats, ''You have
the governor and one branch of the leg
islature. the people have Endorsed your
demand for a change, and. in the light
of the election returns, we think you
ought to have a chance to re-
peal the law. Please take Ithe bur-
den that is crushing us away" But
no repeal act can pass the legislature
without the aid of Republicans pledged
to stand stnrdily by the law. This
was to be had by agreement OF the
