small particles. Considerable excite
ment exists here at times when valuable

there is fountain head where large

The papers report a great Demo
cratic victory in nearly all the States
that had an election, Ohio excepted,
and the Democrats are jubilant. Pro-
hibition in this State does not fully
prohibit, but it goes a long ways in that
direction. What intoxicants are used
have to be smuggled; and here is where
Blaine's reciprocity comes in. The
Republicans take turns in sending to
Boston for key Of rum, put it in an
elevated position, get around and suck
it out through a straw. Reciprocity
will go here at the next election as it is
considered popular and very pleasant
to take. I think Blaine will be elected
president in '92 on that platform, and
shall vote for him myself, as in my
short stay here I have gotten inside
the ring, took a pull at the. straw and
don't find anything Objectionable.

He Was Not a Settler.

A correspondent of the Princeton
UNION charges Hon. N. Richardson
and Leon Houde, of Little Falls, with
advising Mile Laos Indians not to re-
move to White Earth. That CORES
pondent evidently made something of
an error in his letter. Messrs Rich
ardson and Houde have long been adj
visors of the Indians, and doubtless in
this matter notified the Indians to make
no decision until a consultation is held.
We doubt if the Mile Laos settlers will
hasten the removal of the Indians by
attacking the citizens of Little Falls
who have most influence with the In
dams. Little Falls Transcript.
The communication in question was
not written by a Mile Laos settler nor
by resident Of Mile Laos county. If
we were at liberty to give his name the
Transcript would be obliged to confess
that he was good authority and that he
knew something of the facts in the case.

PAT EGAN AT BAY.
Regardless of party there has been
on the part of the press of the United
States an almost unanimous demand for
the recall of Minister to Chill Patrick
Egan. Even that most hidebound of
Republican partisan journals, the New
York Mai1 and E1p1ess, has joined in
the chorus. But it appears the Gillian
situation has not been thoroughly I'M
derstood in this country. The diplo-
matte secrecy enshrouding the secre-
tary of states Office has made this
misunderstanding possible Late. dis
patches convey a clearer view of the
sensitive conditions now existing in
Chilli than have heretofore been given
1t appears that Minister Egan is at
present harboring at the American
legation a number of prominent ref
ugees from the defunct Balmaceda
party. Since the suicide of their chief,
these refugees have been demanded at
the hands Of the American lega-
ton by the present rulers of Chill,
the congressional party. To these de-
mands Minister Egan has refused and
still firmly refuses compliance. And
the minister is acting under strict or
ders. from Washington in the stand
taken by him. In case of an attempt
to take these refugees from the Ameri-
can legation by force, Admiral Schley,
commander the only American warship
now in Gillian waters, has received in
structions to proceed to extreme meas
ures. What those measures would be
can easily be surmised by any one at
all conversant with the usual temper
of naval officers. +. II:
1t must certainly be admitted that
the course pursued so far in this
Chilian imbroglio is one that will be
readily Endorsed by the intelligent and
patriotic people Of the United States.
1t is no time nor are our people in any
mood for repetition of the Barrundia
affair. The Indignation excited in the
breasts of Americans by the details of
that dark episode is still fresh in the
minds of the people. To surrender
these refugees from the conquered
army of Balmaceda would simply be
surrendering them to death. Secre-
tary Blaine has offered to provide
them safe escort out of the country, but
to this compromise the Infatuated
Chilians now in power will not listen.
Their cry is for the blood of these
refugees, and it is between their lives
and the fierce animosities of the con-
quering leaders that the representative
of the United States now interposes
his official protection. 1t is idle at this
moment to attempt a criticism of Pat
Egan as minister to Chilli. For the
present he stands as the representative
Of this country, obeying instructions
from the department Of state. His
position is by no means an enviable
one, and the situation can be said to be
coming rapidly to focus, either for
open warfare or peaceful arbitration.
At all events it is evident the refugees
will not be surrendered and our few
cruisers are now daily drawing nearer
to CHILEAN waters, with the Baltimore
already on the marine picket line
st. Paul Globe.

Is Administration he overturned all his

his administration he overturned all his
popularity by intriguing for continued con-
troll. After displacing all the heads of de-
partments, the army, navy and police, who
were not in complete sympathy with his
scheme, he nominated one of his creatures,
Sanfuentes, as candidate for presi
dent Compelled by the storm of
Indignation to withdraw this nom
ination, Balmaceda got up pretended
revolution in Valparaiso, with the idea of
getting a pretext to declare martial law,
adjourn congress and proclaim himself die
tator
In June, 1890, the pretended revolutir
commenced in the seaport towns, but the
secret leaking out, the outbreak was re-
local authorities, and Bslmaceda was
overwhelmed with ridicule and the
anger Of the people. A COM
mittee headed by the archbishop Of Chill,
waited on him, demanded the dismissal of
the unpopular ministry and his promise to
obey the laws and usages of the country.
He yielded, and for awhile all was peaceful
again. But he failed to fulfill his promise,
the new cabinet resigned and again he ap-
pointed his old ministers. Congress sum
moned these new ministers before it; they
refused to go, and when the congress ap-
pealed to the President, he replied by order
ing the house of congress to be closed.
Civil war at once broke out, but for time
it seemed that Balmaceda's power was too
great to be shaken. He had complete con-
troll of the army, the navy and tho funds Of
the country. If he had had the moral sup
port of any party he would have doubtless
conquered, but the whole country rose
against him. Valparaiso was at last cap
tured by the Congressional party in Al
gust, and Balmaceda, ruined and in terror
of his life, has been in hiding, until his sui
eide on Saturday last.

BAlmaceda.

Balmaceda's suicide brought to an end
the story of stormy life. Jose Manuel
Balmaceda was born at Santiago in 1910.
1t was his parents intention that he should
have become priest and he was carefully
educated at the Seminario Concellas at
Santiago. He plunged, however, at once
into politics and joined the most radical
wing of the Liberal party. In 1868, with
others, he founded the powerful Reform
club He was elected deputy and served
FIVE terms with credit to himself and
the city. He was also Gillian minister to
Buenos Ayres. was appointed minister Of
the interior in 1852 and was elected sena-
tor in 1885, On September IS, 1856, he was
elected president by an overwhelming ma
jorlty. He was at first extremely popular,
and. was perhaps the most distinguished
man in South America. In the last year of

an enormous meeting and great enthusiasm
are promised.
The Newcastle meeting will gather
added interest from the fact that the Ad-
vanced Labor party is making dead set
against John Morley because OF his frank
and resolute opposition to the eight-hour
idea, and they even threaten to defeat him
for parliament at the next election. New
castle will have something to say about
this, and the politicians expect to hear her
say it on the occasion of Gladstone's visit.
No appointment has yet been made to the
postmaster generalship, vacated by the
death of MIR. Raikes. Sir John Gorst is still
the popular favorite, but no sign has reached
hun of intentions on Lord Salisbury's part
to recommend him to the Queen The
Duke of Rutland's name has been men
toned, but tnat amiable associate of Dis
raeli in Young England daysls already pro
vided for in the sinecure office OF chancellor
of the Duchy of Lancaster. The latest ru-
NOR connects with the Office the name of
Sir j. Ferguson, 'under secretary OF for
eign affairs. No one has yet succeeded in
| guessing why this mediocre person should
have been endowed with his present office.
| 1t is too great strain on the ingenuity OF
the public to promote him to be postmaster
general while the original question is I'M
solved. Meanwhile the minor readjust-
ment of ministerial Office has arranged
itself The lord advocate has accepted the
post OF president of the high court of JUS
tice in Scotland, and will not again be seen
in the house Of commons. This will be
distinct loss to the government, Mr..
ROBERTSON being admirable in debate
and jocular withal. He is still young
to parliament, and might look to gain high
position in it, but the lord presidency is the
! Hottest post in Scotch judicature. In addi-
ton to the honorable place, it has attached
a salary of $4,000 year, with handsom G
retiring pension. The tenure of Office of
the lord advocate is limited by the dura
ton OF the present parliament. Mr. Rob
ertson, after due elaboration, has, like 6
canny Scot, flung political ambition to the
winds and settled down for life as lore
president of the high court of justice.

Carnnt,a Cnnduct.

The dignified conduct Of the French gov
eminent in srppressing the silly outbreak
against the production of "Lohengrin' is
generally commended. Referring to the
disgraceful rows which took place last
week in Paris the correspondent of the
New York Times says:
'Side by side with this exhibition of
what is most pitiable in the possibilities of
the Partisan character, the autumn has fur
nished US with q number of admirable
speeches by M. CarnOt and M. de Frey
cinct, to which more serious French jour
nails point with iustifiable pride as models
of diguifed and pacific patriotism: From
the outset Of his presidential term M. Cav
not has been uniformly lucky. He. has
made no single false step yet, and has
known how continually to foster his hold
on French imagination not less than on its
respect.
''He has at last become SO strong that the
weight of his personality would avail to
secure even less intelligent and capable
ministry than the present one from over
throw by parliamentary caprice; but the
ministry itself is popular. You hear every
where in France conviction that this is
the ministry under which France will enter
and wage her next war, meaning not that
it will provoke or hasten conflict, but
| that France az last is satisfied that it could
not be in better hands"

The startling news from the Dardanelles
has not yet ceased to be the principal topic
of conversation in political circles in Eu-
rope. Looking backward on the shock
which the news gave to the financial and
political circles-out of all proportion to the
significance of the event. even if it had
been true the incident serves to emphasize
in the strongest manner the insecurity of
the peace of Europe.
The situation is admirably summed up by
H. F., the correspondent Of the New York
Times, who says: For the moment the most
interesting thing about this Sigri scare was
that people believed it. l do not mean
alone on the continent, where, as explained
last week, distrust of England's good faith
is ingrained, but here in London the story
did not impress anybody as necessarily i'm
possible. 1t turns out now that the report
was not strictly canard.
Apparently British feet cruising
around for exercise in the bay did land
some men, and the natives who saw and
reported this could not be expected to know
that their mission was entirely pacific and
| innocent.
Here in England people were not whit
more sure of the character Of this mission.
| All the ministerial papers the next morn
l
at the same time holding themselves poised
to be able to defend the occupation of Sigri
if the Iumor proved we'll founded. Not a
Tory voice was raised to denounce the i'm
putation of such a high handed act of
piracy as this occupation would have
been.
Speculation runs riot as to the possible
motives of the canard. AS has been pointed
out, the original story was not an inven
ton at all, but merely a neutrality-suspicious.
of an actual occurrence. The reception OF
its publication here and on the continen,
showed that public opinion regarded it as
quite the sort of thing Lor Salisbury
might be expected to do. More than this
the excitement it created has made newly
apparent to every one how easily England
can be forced to the front In any coming
European complication. All this is cleal
incitation to go ahead with that process o.
squeezing England which l explained a
length last week There need be no fea
that the hint will be unimproved.
