Contemplate Indeed.
Duluth News.-Dem.

The St. Paul Globe is another of the
organs that are attempting TO injure
the Worlds fair by threatening byc0Ut
in case the force bill should pass. 1t is
safe TO say that the Globe is wasting
its wind when it addresses the Mime
sofa Legislature with any such rot. 1t
is surprising that paper generally
conservative and independent should
join in a movement so little, SO mean,
SO vulgar and so offensive to true Am
orleans. If the force bill cannot be
killed by legitimate methods, let il
pass. 1t will only result in injury TIC
the party that makes it a law. Min
nesOta papers, at least, should be
above such detestible methods as that
originated in this State by the ST
Paul Globe. and which sensible men
can only view with deserved contempt.

WAVES EXAMINATION.
Bail Placed at S1,5OO for
his Appearance at the May term.

The municipal court room was
crowded TO suffocation considerably
before ten o'clock this forenoon, the
hour for which the preliminary exam
ination was set. The case attracted
more attention than any since Len1z's
examination eighteen months agOs
The attorneys were on hand with UNI
usual prOmptness. but cOnsidera bic
time was consumed in arranging pre-
Hminary matters and in consultations
among each other. II became known
that the prosecution intended TO serve
four more warrants, each on a differ
ent charge, but ali having about the
same meaning. This would necessi-
tate the placing Of the amount Of the
bail at SO high figure that it might
be out Of the question TO attempt TO
secure it. So the matter was COM
promised, and the state agreed not to
serve the other warrants at present
on condition that the bail should be
placed at such figure that il would
be more or less difficult to secure the
amount, and make il more improbable
that the prisoner should attempt TO
Jump his bail. The defense then
waived an examination and was bound
over to the May term Of the District
court, his bail being placed at 81, 800.
His attorney signi1ied his belief that
his client would be able to secure the
bail by this afternoon. The prisoner
was remanded to the custody Of the
chief of police TO allow a reasonable
time to secure bail.

The following anecdote will serve nj

A bill was before the senate Judiciary
committee which jay Gould was cx-
cecdiugly anxious To defeat. lie went
TO Washington 10 oppose it. Senator
Mcdonald was a member OF the COM
mittce, and one day when I've returned
home to his quiet rooms he found =
small black -bcarrlc.l man coilcd up in
one Of his easiest chairs in front of the
open lire. Tie visitor was very cool
in fact so very cool that the senator
stood in an interrogalf.c attitude. as
il he intended TO make the interview n
very short one. The visitor said:
You are Senator Mcdonald, | pre-.
sume?'
IL am" was the reply.
'My name is Jay Could of New

Mcdonald bowed stifliy without say

Il have called upon you" said Mr..
Gould. Ito talk to you about my in
terests, which, assure You. are heavy
ones. am much interested in the
legislation now pending before your
committee. / have come to see you
about it,"
The tone and manner of Could was
very offensive 10 the senator. He said:
''Sir. YOU can not see nor talk to me
upon the subject of the Union Pacific
interests except in the judiciary COM
mittee-room and before the committee"
Gould laughed very impaiiently nj
this, rs if he did not believe IA word

which Levy quickly responded: II can
