enemy, that they made the contest on
the direct issue whether the MCKINLEY
law should be accepted and approved, or
condemned and only endured until OPP
portunity offered to overthrow 1T. They
were elected to overthrow it, and not to
make the attempt would show lack of
fidelity to their instructions and them
selves wanting in courage. This solicit
tude for the honor and loyalty of the
Democrats is almost pathetic. 1t is ac-
companied with the statement that it
is true that Republican senate would
render Ineffective such efforts, but their
duty is clear to butt their heads
against the invulnerable ramparts. The
explanation is not difficult. The Re-
publicans would preserve the MCKIN-
LEY structure intact, and more particu-
larIy prevent any detection in their
own forces. 1t would embarrass many
of the Republicans in the senate to be
forced to vote against single measures
to remove duties on articles in which
their districts have a local interest.
These bills covering but one or two
articles can be readily prepared and
promptly passed by the house, so that
action on them by the senate cannot be
evaded. A general bill would require
months for preparation and discussion
in the house, and would not be allowed
to come before the senate. 1t is not sur
prising. then, that the Republicans
deprecate the single shot movement.

GARZA'S WARFaRE.
Gen. Stanley Has an Ugly Affair
on Hand

on 16nu.
WASHINGTON, Dec. -2S.-Acting Sec
rotary Grant said today that lle. regarded
the situation on the Mexican frontier as
serious, and that the war department
was exerting itself to prevent further
violations of the neutrality laws by Gar
za's band of revolutionists. If neces-
Sary 10 prevent these men from crossing
backward and forward between Mexico
and the United States, the entire mill
tary force under Gen. StanIey's COM
mand will be distributed along the
north bank of the Rio Grande.
The United States marshal also has
unlimited powers in the matter of aug
menting his posse, and will cooperate
with the military authorities in efforts
to arrest disturberS of the peace in
Mexico. 1t is within his discretion to
employ the Texas rangers i'll this ca
pacity, and as this force of armed and
mounted police is we'll acquainted with
the country and the habits of Mexieans
along the border, Assistant Secretary
Grant said the marshal will doubtless
avail himself of their services.
1t is said at the war department that
Garza's movement is gaining in
strength Notwithstanding the efforts of
OHltOU oIdIOo d4iu 1hCAtcdil -tEOOpS 10
restrain Ii, and some officers recall the
fact that DiaZ, the president of Mexico,
reached his present station through a
revolutionary movement conducted
across the boundary just as Cara Is
conducting his campaign. InaSmuch as
the Rio Grande is fordabIe seven months
of the year, and the revolutionists have
many friends on each side of the river
who keep them advised promptly of
every move of the government forces.
the task before Gen. SANKEY'S troops of
preventing them from crossing is full of
difficulty.

FOR FOLEY'S TROPHY,
Resumption of Play in the Anna
teur Billiard Contest.

Resumption Of Play in the Anna
teur Billiard Contest.
Yesterday proved very exciting in the
amateur handicap billiard tournament
for the Foley trophy. Five interesting
games were played. VIII Monroe, who
has been i'll for two weeks, made his
debut by taking two games, the latter
with the greatest ease. Clark played
his first game this evening, as did Par
fridge. Victory crowned the formers
play, while the other went down in de
feat before the dauntleSs work of Mon
roe.
The first game came off in the after
neon. Monroe defeated Barry in
score of 100 to 90. 1t was close work
and fairly good game.
Monroe and Partridge led Off the
evening sport. Monroe'S cool, open
table playing soon placed HIM a long
way in the lead. He made no large
runs, but he kept running up little
punches of buttons with ease. He
scored 100 to GS for Partridge. Clark's
advent in the ring resulted in a signal
victory over Green, 100 to Is points.
He playvd easy and gracefully, and
while his highest run was only 10, there
were lots OF lesser innings thai sWelIed
his string rapidly.
Wilmot is still the fayorIte, and he
seems to be invincible He defeated
Capt. Hardacre in score OF 100 to T6.
He made two runs of twenty-one
and several in double figures, closing
with an average of five, which Is pretty
rapid for an amateur, and is the best
thus far in the tourney. Fred Sibley
won his first victory. He defeated
Markham 100 to rs, and he played
a pretty game. The story of the tourney
reads.

THE CONVENTION.

The candidacy of st. Paul for the
Democratic national convention contin-
ueS to attract attention IN the East, and
to elicit sometimes fippant and some
times favorable comment. If the sup
port of the whole Northwest can be
gained for the project, it may be taken
as settled that Chicago will not enter
the race any more actively than she did
before the Republican committee. Chi
cagO has to ask an appropriation of
S5.000.00 for its worlds fair from con-
greSs elected Oil a retrenchment issue.
She will have need OF every friend she
can in any way gain, and it is not likely
that she will risk the ill will of the
great region to the west of her by
greedily reaching out for an honor
which she can very we'll spare.
If we do not have to count on her as a
competitor, the outlook is very encOur-
aging, unless false impressions get
abroad as to our ability to accommodate
the gathering. The New York newspa-
pers have published of late news to the
effect that there is general diSappoint-
ment felt by those who have investi-
gated as to the capacity of the Minneap-
oils hotels, and they are unanimous in
declaring that no place must be selected
for the Democratic convention which is
deficient in this regard. A good deal of
this sort of talk may be attributed to
New YOrk'S own ambition, but at the
same time it is true that some actual
complaints have been made by the Re-
publican managers vino recently visited
our sister city. These were excited in
part, at any rate, by some local careless
ness in displaying the city's resources ;
but such reports are entirely unjust to
st. Paul, and are calculated 10 work us
great injury.
People who live at remote points
from US constantly confuse these two
places, and the rumor that Mime
apOlis has not hotel room sufficient
for the occasion will create SIM
liar distruSt as to us. The GLOBE has
never very accurately calculated the
strength of Minneapolis in this partic-
ular, but it knows that st. Paul has
more good hotels than any city of twice
its size in the Union. This has always
been an important center for travellers,
and at the time of the teachers conven-
ton in 1899 We were prepared to enter
tain 10000 strangers without crowding
ourselves att or drawing on our neigh
bOrs for assistance. We have eleven
| tirst-class hotel buildings, some of them
large enough to hold a whole village of
guests, and to some of which, like the
Aberdeen and the Colonnade, there is
nothing cOrrRSnOndinU aft all in tho cifv
up the river. Outside of Chicago and
New York no place which will be at all
| considered i'll connection with the con-
vention can make anything like the
showing of which we are capable. If
the contest is to be decided on this issue
we need not have any fear about the re-
suit, provided we can make the truth
| known as il OUGHT 10 be
