MIR. LONlEN's SPEECH.

The GLOBE hopes very sincerely that
| none of its readers overlooked the
verbatim report which it published yes
terday morning of Representative Lo-
MEMS speech OH the Duluth Il Winni-
peg railroad land grant. 1t was gem
III its way, and. as the GLOBES reporter
has SO felicitously expressed it, Mr..
LOAIEN, at its conclusion, resumed his
seat amid a hearty burst of applause.
and his speech was regarded as one of
the ablest delivered this session.
Lest any of its readers in the press
of business tailed to give this important
contribution TO contemporary forensic
elOQuence the attention it deserved, the
GLOBE repeats here its main points.
with such eyegetical comment as seems
sion. The central idea of the oration
was that If you started out on tour of
foreign conquest you would be entitled
to no crown of fame unless when you
got there you stayed there.
To cIinch this profound philosophic
truth, Mr.. LoMEN dwelt at some length
on the public careers of the great con-
querorS of ancient and modern times.
These, as Mr. LO,IEN stated, with COM
plete historical accuracy. are ALEXAN-
DER the Great, julius CESAR. ROLLO
the Wanderer, WILLIAM the Con-
queror, LEIF Erickson, LANE K.
STONE. The names of all these famous
men, with perhaps two exceptions, are
household words in every family in the
civilized world, and there is no doubt at
all that Mr.. LoNIEN is right in saying
that when they got there, they stayed
there. There is possibility that some of
our representatives. cultured audience
at the capitol may have thought that
the ROLLO referred to was the ROLLO
OF the story books, who made so many
tours to so many European countries.
But this the GLOBE believes is not so.
There also has been tendency notice
able, in the very general comments
which have been made during the past
day Oh Mr.. LOMEN'S speech, to confuse
LEIF ERICKSON with OLE OLESoN, the
hero of the Scandinavian drama SO sue
ceSSfully performed at enc of our local
theaters last fail. This again, however.
is an error.
Ine Otner c0nquer0rS whose staying
powers the young orator so fittingly
eulogized of course need no introduce
ton to public which has had the advan-
tage of an education under our common
school system. ALEXANDER the Great
conquered Asia and Egypt, and stayed
there with much emphasis. In fact, he
died there. JULIUS CESAR conquered
prif Il
til he got all there was 10 be had there
and then he got out just before the
boom was over. That is the wisest
brand of staying there. WILLIAM the
COnqueror conquered England. He
also stayed there. LANE X. STONE con-
quered North ST. Paul. He also stayed
there. Copies of yesterday mornings

LoAIEN's speech can still be had at this
office at the usual price.

KANSAS CITY, April 16.-The Winner
Investment company, through its preSi-
dent Willard E. Winner, made an as
Signment late this afternoon for the
benefit OF its creditors. No schedule of
the assets and liabilities was filed, and
nothing is known of them or can be
learned at present. The company was
capitalized for 100000 originally, but
about a year ago the capital was in
creased by new issue of $500, 900 of
stock. The company has been deal
ing In bonds and mortgages and other
securities. with branches in New
York and Boston, where great bulk
of the securities were disposed of. The
company two years ago purchased a
large tract of land on the eastern por-
ton OF the city, subdivided it, and built
no less than eighty houses upon it.
The property was mortgaged to buy the
land and construct the houses. and the
mortgages were disposed of in the East.
Some OF the houses were sold on long
time payments, while others are still on
the market. Mr.. Winner was seen by a
representative of the Associated Press
this evening, but he declined to make
any statement at first concerning the
assignment. When asked what the
company's assets were he said he did
not know. The liabilities, he said. were
s2OO,000 less than the assets, but he
would not make an estimate as to
the full amount of either. Later Mr..
winner, SAID the assignment was not a
failure al all. The company had sim

this Mr.. Winner declined to say any,

To-day besides being the head of the

has nearly completed the construction
OF bridge across the Missouri river at
TINS place; president of the Winner

of S1,000,000, which has been building a
gigantic office building here; the Dresi-
dent OF the Winner Depot company.

OF a union depot in this city, with a cap
ital stock of 81, 100000; the president Of

way, which has built twenty miles of
road from Kansas City in the direction
of Chicago and the president of a belt
line railway company in this city, both
OF the latter being heavily capitalized
The bonds of these companies have
been placed by the Winner Investment
company, which assigned to-day. Mr.
Winner says the assignment will not
affect any of the companies outside of
the investment company.

All AGAINST RahilIY.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Republicans in this city universally
condemn the appointment of p. II.
Raliilly to the position of swamp land
inspector. All condemn the appoint
ment, and are living in hopes that he
may not be confirmed or commissioned.
While they freely admit that his treach-
cry of last fall materially aided in de-
feating Hon. Thomas Wilson for gov
ernor. they unhesitatingly state that
his style OF warfare was so nearly akin
to that OF shooting poisoned arrows that
they cannot countenance it. Bishop
Ireland's course in recommending him
is also condemned.
The Democrats unite in saying that
Rallilly is now where he always be-
longed, with the ins. Yours truly,
