GEN. BAKERS SPEECH

The GLOBE hopes that every farmer,
whether Democrat, Republican or Pop
ulist, within the compass of its circula-
ton will read the Eagle Lake speech of
Gen. j. II. BAKER, printed in its col
umns today. The speech is mastery
exposition Of the relations agriculture
bears to the economic questions of the
day. With thorough practical knowl-
edge of his subject. gained through long
experience, both in the actual business
of farming and in participation in the
public councils, Gen. BAKER makes a
plea which carries conviction with it i'll
every paragraph and sentence. He dis
solves into thin air every vestige of the
Republican pretension that protection
benefits the farmer. He shows up Me-
kinleyism in its true light of conveying
TO the farmer, with hvpOcriticai elab-
orateness. privileges of which he is pow
erless to avail himself, while to the man
ufacturing trusts and combines it grants
both the privilege and the power to rob
the farmer by an unjust tax on every
thing he buys.
Read the speech, you farmers whom
the GLOBE reaches; and remember, as
you read, that it represents the cOnclu-
sionS reached by. an honest and able
man in lfetime's study of the queS-
tons touching your interests.

MRS. HARRISON.

Mrs. HARRISON'S terrible malady is
making hourly progress, and it is APP
parent that this good woman'S days are
numbered. Both for her personal worth
and because she stands for American
Womanhood-God bless it.-the nation
gives her its unbounded sympathy in
her suffering. 1t is under any circum-
stances CHASTITY, cruel ordeal to die
thus watching Death approach nearer
and nearer, inch by inch, with leisurely
confidence in his victims helplessnesS;
and the ordeal is made all the more try
ing fer Mrs. HARRISON by reason of
the contemporary crisis in the fortunes
of her distinguished husband, involving
a crisis also in the affairs OF the nation.
True woman and faithful wife that she
is, the strain Of such q crisis would tell
heavily on her, even were she III fair
health. What. then, must be its force
upon her in her present weakened con-
dition?
Nothing can be done-man is power
less to avert the DEGREES of Omnipotency.
The nation can only convey to the pa
tient sufferer a sympathy sincere and
universal, ana unsH4Iied by the faint of
political differences.

Howard. United States army, COM
handing the department of the East, in
his annual report to the secretary of
war, makes some important recon-
mendations touching the national guard
of the United States. He says:
1.-THE militia under its new name of
national guard has reached a degree of
excellence never before attained. This
body of citizen soldiers is not only use
full in maintaining order in the several
states, but it will be of the highest
value to the general government in case
of hOstilities in guarding important
points pending the formation of vol
unteer army. The annual apprOpria-
ton by the government of 100000
might be well increased to $1,000, GEO."
He urgently called attention to the
prOpriety and necessity of providing at
the next session OF congress for re-
armament of the entire national guard
at the same time that the new infantry
arm is furnished to the army. He Wig
OrouSly attacks the post exchange, or

MICHAEL CAssuS ELOps,

A thrill of delirious joy is now chas-
Ing and racing around the marrow bones
of the g. o. p. The breach made by
GRESHAM'S detection no longer yawns
in hideouS emptiness before the alright
ed eyes of the faithful. Into that breach
has stepped warrior whOse-but why
drag out the fatal announcement? MI
CHAEL CASSIUS MCDONALD is his name,
the name of this neophyte Republican
whose eSpOuSal of that cause is hailed
as ample compensation for the apostasy
of GRESHAM
And who is GRESHAM, pray? A mere
judge among Judges. a man who four
years ago couldn't get quite enough
votes in the Republican convention to
nominate him for The presidency,
while MCDoNALD-ah! it's different
with MCDONALD. MICHAEL CASsIUS
is man of quite different stripe from
this boiling jurist. \ great and good
man is NIKE (S'deathi he was villain
but now: but cannot the leopard change
his spots?) A king sport is MICHAEL.
CAsSIUs, the gamblers pride and the
high mogul of Chicago's seany side.
What kind of a figure does this GRESu-
AM fellow cut compared with MIKE?
WHAT'S GRESHAM or Hecuba or Hades
to the g. o. p, or it TO them, since MIKE
MCDONALD confeSseS that CLEVELAND
is "a bloke amt got no use for" and
swears big oath that 3. HARRISON
shall have his vote?
Meanwhile the Democracy, stunned
and sorrowful, gathers up the fragments
of its courage and pieces them together.
1t derives some consolation from the
reflection that Mr.. MCDONALD is at last
where he belongs; but, of course, it
grieves to feel that GREsHAM's con-
version has all gone for nothing. The
detection of JIMMY CoRBETr, or even
Mr.. MULDOoN. might have been borne
with some degree of fortitude, but Eft
tu, MIKE.
