 Rain was falling with 8 monotonous downpour which gave promise of con tinuing throughout the day. And so it happened that though the parade was carried out as arranged, it was spoil ed by the dismal weather.
 Despite the inclemency of the day, however, quite a number of persons braved the clements, determined to see all that was to be seen of the Lord Mayors show. Their enthusiasm suf- feed to carry them to points of vantage, but many were so thoroughly drenched wait for the procession to pass.
 They did not lose much, however, for the show, as a whole, was but repeti- tion of the shows of former Lord May ors, the only novelties worthy of note being several allegorical cars emblem attic of incidents in the life of the Prince of Wales.
 The occasion for the introduction of these cars was the f1ftieth anniversary of the birth of the Prince, which oc. cured yesterday.

Hon. Daniel Buck, when in Manka-
to Friday, was approached by Sena-
Tor LaDue, of Rock county, and by
the Globe reporter, the following con
versation is recorded as having taken
place. Said Mr.. LaDne:
Here is our candidate Tor congress IN the Sec
ond district next year. He can be elected over
anybody that can be nominated against him
'-But cannot accept a nomination for con-
gress next year." said Judge Buck, deprecating.

Mr. Buck has been several times
treated very shabbily by the dictators
of the Democratic party, and he is
not only justified in giving it out ear
ly that he cannot be used as a cam
paign bulletin in future. but equally
so in declaring that no chalk marks

THE statement is made that the

be used in accomplishing the defeat
Of the author Of that patriotic Ameri-

not this information is accurate we
are unable to say. Certain it is, how
ever, that the alleged proceedings are
in perfect line with 4 natural course
OF circumstances. The Mckinley law
hurts the British manufacturers very
much. To this fact they themselves
and the newspapers Of England testify
frankly and frequently, SO that there
is no successful denial Of the state
ment. These manufacturers know
that the defeat Of the author Of the

Congress that, to quote the exact Ian
guage Of IL. Mile, Roumanian depu-
II, the Roumanian peasant earned I'd
a day and lived in hut, which was no
better as dwelling than the caves Of
primeVal times" The wages stated is
the equivalent of one cent and a half
a day, or nine cents a week.
This, We think, is the cheapest En-
ropeau labor 10 which attention has
yet been called. There may be low
CT depth somewhere, but we have not
heard it. The R0umanians are Of the
Slav race that is Just now furnishing
such large proportion Of American
immigration. No wonder they look
upon the United States as an earthly
