ENGLISH DEMOCRACY.

The revelations in the disgusting life
of the eldest son of the Prince of
Wales. who has but two advanced and
exceptionally uncertain lives between
him and the crown, is not calculated to
check the growing Impotence in Eng
land with the hereditary ruler system.
The congress of the National Liberal
Federation in session at Newcastle on
theTyne has afforded very significant
indications of the direction of popular
feeling. Regard for the excellent old
lady who wears the robes will tide over
the rest of her life, but the boldness Of
this great representative body in de-
claring for advanced measures is al
most startling. 1t is one of the most
important gatherings that have bee n
held in England in the later times.
There are 5000 delegates, representing
100000 electors aud party that
is moving to possession of the govern
ment with growing momentum. GLAD
STONE, the Grand Old Man, is the inspi-
ration and great leader. The first dec
laration OF the body was an expression
of trust and implicit confidence in MI.
GLADSTONE. and Endorsement of home
rule for Ireland. Other topics that
engage the attention and that are to be
formulated in the platform Of the party
relate 10 the labor question, the discs
adjustment of the church. free educa-
ton, and even the abolition of the house
Of lords. Whether the purpose is dis
tinctly affirmed to dispense with this
aristocratic check upon the representa-
tive peoples body or nOt,a movement has
been inaugurated that will remove it still
further from practical control in affairs.
1t has in the main been prudent body,
and has rarely put itself in the way of
earnest popular demands. But it will
be remembered that Lord SALISBURY
not long since told his Tory people tina t
they need have no apprehension of the
revolutionary commons, as the house of
lords would be their protecting wall.
Coming from the Tory leader, this was
an inSolent defiance that naturally eX-
aSperated Ola DSTONE and the Liberals.
They have promptly taken up the note,
and propose to go to the country on it.
Every reference to contest with the
''houSe of hereditary incapables'' af-
fected the congress as BLAINE dash is
supposed to excite the average Repub-
Iican convention in this country. The
Liberal leader, JOHN MORLEY, init
mated that he stood with his coat off
ana muscles stiffened for the contest,
whenever the lords touched the chip on
the shoulder. The resolution for ''mend-
ing or ending the house of lords" was
unrOariOuS lV indorSp6 in fine latter form
There are other propositions looking to
the ADVANCE of the people toward con-
trol, such as the payment of salaries to
members of parliament, so that work
ingmen can have a chance. The leaven
Of democracy is working in the heart of
England.

HE WANTS TO KNOW

EAGLE LAKE, Mimi, Oct. 6.-There
is something in our state laws in regard
to testing boilers for steam engines that

great many others. l bought a new

it, and not being of quarrelsome dis
position, | allowed him to do so and paid
him 50 for the certificate of inspection.
Now it appears thatin my neighborhood
there are three different owners of
boilers that positively refused to let him
test their boilers, and after a war of
words and threats all around he drove
off, and they are running their engines
the same as myself. only that L am out
So. and it Is fact that one of the same
parties drove the inspector off last year
in the same way and nothing was done
about it. Now, what want to know is,
is the law made only to catch gudgeons,
like myself, and pay So to be told your
boiler is safe when you know Ii is all
right, and your neighbor, by the exer-
else of little gall and invitation to the
inspector to go away, enjoys the same
privilege as myselfP Now, if that is all
that 1t takes to evade the law, the in

WILKINSON SUSTAINED.
Grand Forks Lodge Apologize.
and Is Reinstated.

GranO FORKS Lodge Apologies
and as Reinstated.
GALEsBURG, ILL.,, Oct. 6.-This morn
ing'S session of the convention of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen was
taken up with the case of Lodge 126,
Grand Forks. n. d. This lodge, some
time after the Northwestern difficulty
sent out circulars condemning the
course OF Grand Master Wilkinson
This was done without his knowledge,
aud was in violation of the constitution,
which provides that the circulars must
be submitted to and be approved by
the grand master. Mr.. Wilkin-
son deprived the lodge of
its charter. The lodge sent
delegate to the convention.
On the hearing this morning the dele
gate made an apology for his lodge and
said that the lodge has been misin-
formed by the press reports and the
Trainmen's Journal. and other railroad
papers as to the facts. The convention
unanimously sustained the position
taken by the grand master, the apology
was accepted, the lodge reinStated and
the delegate seated.
Mr.. Wilkinson, In his annual report.
IN abiding to the discharge of the 400
switchmen on the Northwestern road,
and the filling of their places with
Brotherhood men, said that he dis
tinctly advised against the Brotherhood
men taking the places of the switch
men. The grievance committee on the
Northwestern arrived last night with
the reports of the proceedings of the
committee to show that Wilkinson's
connection with the affair had been mis-
represented.
At the secret session in the afternoon
the charge of defamation of character,
made by Theodore Rogers, of the Train
mems journal, was taken up, but, after
lengthy discussion, Rogers withdrew
the charge with the understanding that
Sheeian should prefer the charges
against him later.
Then the trustee question came up.
Grand Master Wilkinson, in speech
of two hours duration, contended he
had the constitutional right to discharge
the old board. He went over the entire
ground, being interrupted many times
with questions. which were generally
ruled out of order. He spoke of the I'M
constitutional acts of the old board,
their usurpation of authority and
their incompetency in examining the
books and affairs of the brotherhood"

A KINGDOM INVOLVED.
Hawaii Is Now Prize to Be
StPiVen For.


SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 6.-The steam
er Belgic brings most important news
from the Hawaiian kingdom. The in
formation is authentic, being prepared
by one of the leading citizens of Homo
lulu. Queen Liliuokaiani is at the point
of DEATH Her physician has pronounced
her trouble organic disease of the heart,
and her death may happen at any mo-
ment. The queen has been advised of
the worst. The death of the queen
will bring about the most serious of pO-
litical plicatiOnS, and already wire
pullers are at work to secure control Of
the islands in the interest of England.
Honolulu newspapers dare not print one
word of what is transporting, but the
people are in great fever OF excite
ment.
Americans in Honolulu will make
desperate attempt to prevent the islands
from falling into British control. The
father of the heir to the throne, who is
an Englishman, will work to his utmost
in the interests of the British. Ameri-
cans will take advantage Of any lapse
of time to prevent Princess Kalulani
from taking the throne. The natives
are in sympathy with Americans and
want either a republic or annexation
with the United States. Hawaiians feel
no loyalty towards their native ruler,
who has foreign blood in her veins.
The situation is SO critical that the
presence of two or three war ships from
the United States is an absolute neces-
sitv. Queen Dowager Kapiolani is also
dangerously ill with paralysis, and may
die at any moment. The English minis
ter is the bosom friend of Mr.. Cleg-
horn "a fatLpr IF thp heir tn the
throne, Princess Kalulani. Americans
have some knowledge of what is to be
done. and are taking precautions to or
ganize and secure arms sufficient to pro-
tect their rights. The general election
is rapidly approaching, and excitement
is at fever heat between rival political
factions.

Let Them Chime.

To the Editor of the Globe
How strange and out of tune it sounds
to hear the court house bell toll the hour
without the preceding notes of the
chimes.
There is not large city in the United
States or Europe but what has one or
more buildings with chime bells in their
towers. 1t would be just as proper to
silence the chimes Of Westminster, or
old Trinity church in New York, ON ac-
count of few transient guests from
the rural districts who, being aecus-
toned to the stiffness of the country.
are disturbed by the bells.
The only objection there was to the
chimes was that there were not eight
tones instead of only five.
Let the other three tones be added.
and let them chime again, as we need
the music. 1 p p

EFFECT oFLow RATES.

Railroads in this country have been
gradually reducing their tariffs. espe-
cially for freight. Passenger rates have
not kept equal pace. 1t is insisted, of
course, that they have been made as low
as practicable. and that further reduc-
tons would put the receipts below the
inevitable expenditures. Cheaper fares
w5dld not, it is insisted, so enlarge the
business as to avert losses. How far
this may be the fact is not now copsid-
cred. A local illustration may be sug-
gestive, however. The Introduction of
a cheap rate between the Twin Cities
has probably more than doubled the
transit. and the business has been al
most monopoliZed by the low rate route.
Similar rates by the steam lines would
have held the bulk of the travel
There have been in European coun-
tries recently number of illus
trationS of the effect of low rates for
railroad passage. The zonal system in
Austria-Hungary has proved very re-
munerative, the increase in business
more than compromising for the de.
creased rate. The railway returns of
Great Britain the past year afford a
pointer in this connection. There are
three classes of passenger rates there.
The receipts from the first class were
SIS, 900, from the second S13, 23O, 900.
and from the third and cheap rate class
sos, 715, 900. There were eight times
more of this class than of the high-rate
first. The notable fact, however, Is
found in the relative increase of the
classes the past year. Only about 1OO,-
600 more rode in the high-rate compart-
ments, 172,000 in the second class, and
the increase of the third-class presented
the enormous total of 42,276,O0 The
net gain in receipts was greatly in favor
OF the cheap rate. The situation is
somewhat different in this country, but
cheap postage follows the law of multi
plication here as it does in England,
and why should there not be similar
tendency in passenger rates on rail
roads?

Serious Charges Made Against a
Starch COMPANY,

CHICAGO, Oct. Ga sensational suit
has been commenced against the Off
GERS and stockholders of the United

sylvania, in which he says that the
officers of the company have defrauded
him and others out of $4,000 which
they pursuaded him and his friends to
invest in the stock of the starch work,
at Waukegan. The swindle, it is al
legged, grew out of the sales of patents
for making dry starch, which are
said to have turned out to be
utterly worthless. Thomas A. Jebb,
William L. Jebb and William p. Ken

FRENCH Is THE TONGUE.

Said the Minneapolis Tribune in sub
stance and effect: Had SARAH talked
English, with less remorse should we
have used the deadhead tickets her
manager sent us, that our notices might
be kindly. AS ii is, we miss the money
which we did not spend to see her.
Said the Pioneer Press in substance
and effect. An obscure journal pub
lished In Minnesota village shows its
low origin by expressing preference
for something which it can understand
to something which it can't. This proves
how little the vulgar know about art.
The very essence of art is its unintelligi-
bility. Art is that which no fellow can
make sense out of. The instant you
comprehend a thing it ceases to be an
art. If our country population would
reflect for moment they might be
spared the absurd blunder into which
their organ has fallen.
Replying, said the Minneapolis Trib-
une iii substance and effect: This is
just like st. Paul. French and English

zens of that fast vanishing hamlet-be-
cause, as they understand neither, they

The Pioneer Press is right. The Pho

all that is good and holy, speaks from
the standpoint of morality Art and
morality alike demand that when
