SUGARY SCHEMES.

The supporters of the MCKINLEY
measure do we'll to parade the coming
reduction in sugar as the mantle that is
to obscure ali the dark and uncomfort-
able things in their budget. There is
no doubt that the reduction Of IL cents
per pound authorized by the sugar trust
will reach the consumers. Whether it
Will continue will depend somewhat
upon the trust and circumstances not
fully developed. The estimate in New
York is that over million barrels of
cry the 1st Of April. This is quoted at
AZ cents. But the trust did not make
sufficient allowance for the falling away
of the demand in March in the effort of
local dealers to exhaust their stock pre-
paratory to the lower figures, and large
stock is left on its hands, the raw mate
rial of which paid the duties. If carried
to April there would be loss of one
cent a pound on the average, or a half
million dollars. The scheme to escape
this is ingenious. Under the present
law the government gives a rebate of
213 cents pound on sugars when eX-
ported after having been imported.
The trust has started $4,000 barrels OF
this sugar to Glasgow to take in the 21s
cents a pound, and after the LIST of April
will reship it to this country, when it
will come in without duty. This is
nice thing for the sugar men, but hard
on the government, but it is all accord
ing to law.

A VIREI, LAW

A very sensible and conservative libel
law, or bill, is pending before the Ar
kansas legislature. 1t should be adopt
ed by the various state legislatures,
and be the universal law of the land.
We cannot see that any person of good
character and standing could object to
the provisions of such law:
Section l. That in all actions for libel
under the laws of this state there shall be no
presumption of malice-express, actual or
legal--from the mere fact of the publication
of the alleged lbelous matter.
Sec. =. In all actions for libel the author
of the alleged libel shall be made code
PENDANT with the publisher or proprietor Of
the newspaper or other publication in which
the alleged libelous mater shall appear.
Sec. ). If there be no proof of express
malice, or if it shall appear to the satisfaction
of the court or jury that there was no eX-
press malice, no punitive damages shall be
awarded.
Sec f. No action for libel shall be sus-
tanned under the laws of this state, unless
the plaintiff has first made written demand
upon the editor. publisher or proprietor for
correction of the alleged libelous matter, and
said editor, publisher or proprietor has failed
or refused to make such correction.
Sec. 5. In case of verdict of acquital, or
in case where any nominal damages are
awarded TO the plaintiff. the costs shall be
awarded at the discretion of the court.
Sec. 6. In all civil suits for libel, the court
shall require the plaintiff to give bond for
costs

KINCAID AND TAULBEE.

1t will be recollected that the poem
entitled "rhe Battle Forest,' by Mr..
Wilstach of Indiana, contained a point
ed reference to the affair of Kincaid
and Taulbee. The poem is, in some
sort, national epic. and is aptly dedi-
Gated to Mrs. Benjamin Harrison. The
lines referred TO are as follows:
And when praise the warrior, praise not
Wild license, rapine, lawless scheme and
plot
May poet none Columbia claims as bard
Mourn state controlled by powers Pretorian
guard,
But may free, unbought voter, Free noble
speech
Be the rich heritage of all and each,
What is cur civilization? IS't that scope
For malice may be given to murderers.
Swope
And Goodloe? Or that hot Kincaid may
find
In Taulbee's blood help for his anger blind?
All whites these were of station high and
tone
Exalted. yet the first sad pair must own
They carried each for each the gun and
knife;
Nor place nor time was needed; and the
strife
Came, with the last pair, while our states
men laws
We're framing in the capitol, and the cause
OF Christian civilization in its home
The insult felt, beneath Columbia dome.

oRATORY IN THE HOUSE.

1t is very remarkable to notice the
difference there has been during the
present session in the interest excited
by the meetings of the state senate and
by those of the house. The galleries of
the senate chamber are thronged almost
every day, and there are pitched battles
over important measures waged with
spirit and ability. A good many men
have displayed oratorical powers of no
mean order, and the general impression
left Oh the occasional visitor is that the
senate is body where earnestness, in
telligence, character and experience can
be found i'll full measure.
No one goes to the house, on the other
hand, unless he has an AK to grind or a
momentary curiosity to crafty. The
session is nearly over, but there has
not been more than debate or two of
any interest OF inheritance Fully
three score of members have never
spoken at all, some because of diff
dence. some because of incapacity and
some because there has been no occa-
sion worthy of their exerting them
selves. The daily meetings are dull
and colorless, and bills pass in weari-
some iteration, undigested by the criti-
cal analysis of acute minds and until
lumined by flashes of wit or learning.
The representatives from st. Paul
have done conscientious and valuable
work, but no one has distinguished him.
self by his masterful bearing on the
floor. The Alliance has proved itself
particularly weak in men able to sway
their fellows by forcible and effective
oratory Nor is the Republican side
much stronger. What good speaking
there has been has come from the mem
bers of the Democracy. Mr.. TRIP and
Mr.. PENNEY, of Minneapolis, have stood
out in this regard, and very probably
would have been more conspicuous had
they been stimulated by the contagion
of a contest. HENRY CLAY STIvERs,
the ex-mayor of Brainerd, has made
more of reputation as a speak
er than any one else. He is
undoubtedly the orator of the
house, if it has one. He is almost the
only man who has shown himself abb e
to sway legislation by the power of his
spoken advocacy or opposition. In an
address of ten minutes he killed the
KEYES bill for a constitutional conven-
ton. He was unanswerable, both be-
cause no champion appeared On the
other side equal to coping with him and
because he put his views with rare
adroitneSs and vigor.
Much remains to be done in the next
few weeks. and perhaps leaders will
come up as the last days draw near.
There is great opportunity for some
one. Two or three men of courage and
skill could shape the legislation of the
house for the present session. The
whole body is houest and open to con-
viction. What it needs is a man to
guide the way. He must be ole who
commands respect for his character and
has tact i'll method and power to move.
The reward is great enough to be worth
striving for.

A NEW STATE HOUSE,

The experience of the present session
proves conclusively that the state capt.
toll is inadequate and unfit for the pur-
poses for which it was designed. Its
safety as structure has long been open
to question, and the crowds which have
filled it for the past few months have
found it inconvenient, unhealthy and
incomplete. 1t is impossible for our rep
resentatives to give their best services
to the state if they are compelled to de-
liberate in small and noisy committee
rooms, or to debate in chambers
crowded to sutfocation and filled
with bad air. The GLOBE does
not counsel extravaganza, but, as meas
ure of economy, 1t thinks that it would
be wise if some provision were made
before the close of the present session
looking towards the remedying of this
evil. Minnesota is rich, strong state,
and as matter of local pride, leaving
out of view every other consideration,
owes it to herself to have public build
ing worthy of her greatness. 1t does
not need to be costly one, but it should
combine beauty and convenience. It.
should be located at some spot where
there will be adequate room and that
tasteful lawns may be laid out about it {;
and it should be constructed on such a

THE LOST LEADER.

These are troublesome times for the
Republican party i'll the state of Min
nesota. The st. Paul Republican news
papers openly charge their banker
standard-bearer with prostituting his
official power to advance his personal
ends. On every threshold and street
corner, where knots of men gathered in
yesterdays sunshine, the denunciatiOn
of WILLIAM II. MERRIAM was strong
and scathing. He was freely claSSed
with those blighted figures in our polit-
icai history who have taken public pO-
sition for the pecunidry profit there was
in it, and who, while wearing the livery
OF popular representative, have
served their own interest at the
expense of the states. The local
Republican magnates loudly declare
that his dishonesty is established; that
his character is tainted; that his career
is ended. His firmest champions have
been from among the Democracy. The
GLOBE alone, of the press, SustanS and
commends him. His fellow partisans
wish him JOY of such support. which
will make him no votes. If what they
say is true, he will never again lead the
Republican hosts to victory or defeat.
I'VE have lost our leader" they are cry
ing.
This is bad for the Republican party.
Mr.. MERRIANfs aggressive ability
counts in fight, and who can take his
place? Not WILLIAM d. WAsHBURN.
He is engrossed with the cares of this
world and the deceitfulness of riches.
But what about CUSHMAN K. DAVIS?
Will not he do? No one questions his hon
esty, his strength of character, his grace
AS an orator, or his courage in the con-
tlict. Noone questions his devotion to the
unalterable principles of the Republican
party. He supported with vote and
tongue the force bill, which was pub
lie declaration that the civil war was
not yet ended. That is good Republic
can doctrine. He voted for the Nc
KINLEY bill, which was public dec!a-
ration that the way to make men rich
was to tax them. That is good Repub-
lican doctrine. If Mr.. MERRIAM is
finally deposed, the GLOBE names as
the head captain in the battle CUSHMAN
K. DAVIS, and. as battle cry, "Bayo-
nets at the polls and Chinese tariff
Here is an outlook worthy of the
gods. Hate and monopoly on the one
side and peace and freedom on the
other. May there rise up among us a
strong man fit to carry the Democracy's
banner in such struggle.

HANDY THINGS.

Some of the provisions of the sundry
civil bill of the late congress evidently
had thoughtful anticipation of the
needs of the congressman thrown oct of
employment by the popular cyclone, as
JOHN DAY SMITH regards it. There are
great number of ''soft snaps" pro-
yided for the politically unfortunate.
For instance, some favored patriot is to
have a salary of $1,000 a year and ex-
penses paid to go about to the cities of
the country and learn what furniture is
needed for public buildings. He will
ask the local superintents or janitors.
Another is to draw S. day for drop
ping into the treasury department
few minutes and observing the macera-
ton of dilapidated currency. Twelve
persons are to have S. day to find out
how much sugar bounty must be paid.
The bill is padded with nice little things
that are now handy.

plan that it may be added to from
time to time, as may be needed, with
out destroying its symmetry or attract
iveness. The present site is not adapt
ed for a structure which will satisfy
these requirements. The capitol now
standing will serve useful purpose if
it is given to the state historical society.
This institution has noble collection
Of books and trophies crowded in eel
lar where they are inaccessible. With
more room it would be of the highest
educational value. The GLOBE be-
lieves that it would be best to carry out
the plan long since determined Oh and
leave the present building for this pur-
pose. With honest management new
structure for the uses of the state can
be built elsewhere at no burdensome
outlay, which will reflect credit on the
commonwealth.
