WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?

The GLOBE pleads guilty of not COM
pletely understanding some parts of the
manifesto of the Alliance parry which
it published yesterday morning. 1t will
be remembered that this is in the form
of cOngratulation to the people on
certain important economic and intel
leetual achievements which have been
made of late years under the personal
supervision of BILL" ERWIN and CAR
RINGToN PHELPS. They are five in
number, and the first four the vote for
OWEN in 1890. the establishment of the
Australian system, the discoveries OF
the wheat investigating committee and
the opposition to the MCKINLEY bill
are reasonably clear.
But what i'll thunder do BILL" Err
WIN and CARRINGToN PHELPS mean
by cOngratulatin2 the people
On the proud consciousness of the individ-
uais of our party in their personal liberty and
unfalterng devotion TO the philanthrophY
illuminated in that greatest platform OF all
time-the Sermon on the Mount-under
which divine light our masses repudiate the
paternal hereSies of the su5treasury bill?
Surely this is very puzZling. 1t must
have some Significance, because "BTLL"
ERWIN probably wrote it. And yet
what is its significance? The indiyid-
uals of the Alliances party seem to be
felieitated on their proud consciousness
of something which is in some way con-
neeted with the Sermon on the Mount,
and which has no relation with the sub
treasury bill. But what has the Ser
mon on the Mount got to do with the
subt easurY heresy? The GLOBE gives
it up and calls for bill of particulars.
The snarl is too involved. 1t makes the
GLOBES head ache.

RARON CARNEGIE.

ANDREW CARNEGIE Is distinguished
member of the Republican party. He
seeks no personal honor or preferment.
but the almighty dollar is the goal OF
his ambition, and he has found the
Republican party profitable invest
ment. He contributes literally to the
campaign fund of his party, and through
the robber tariff he gets back not only
his invested capital. but sufficient
interest to enable him to buy baronial
manors and deer parks in Scotland. He
is Republican for revenue only, and,
like his friend Mr.. REID, he is bitterly
opposed to union labor. The latest
evidence of this opposition comes very
inopportunely for the party which
affects to have an especial sUlicitude
for the American workingman. 1t
seems that Mr.. CARNEGIE has declared
reduction of from Is TO so per cent in
the wages of the 5000 men employed in
his Homestead mills, to take effect June
"a. The men, unable to understand
why they should be put on par with
| the pauper labor of Europe when the
| benefieent MCKINLEY law was eSpe-
| cially designed to avert such contin-
| gency. show disposition to object to
the new scale. The measures which
| Mr.. CARNEGIE has taken to oyerrule
this objection evidence the fact that he
has reduced to an exact science the busi-
ness of forcing submission to starvation
wages. He has enclosed his mills with
strong plank wall, nine feet high.
| Along the top of this fence run three
strands of barbed wire which connect
with a powerful battery, and can be
charged with electricity when Mr.. CAR
NEGIE considers it advisable. At the
main entrance, just inside the huge
gates, are two large water plugs, with
pressure of 400 pounds to the square
inch, which can be turned loose when
MIR. CARNEGIE considers it advisable.
A covered platform has been built, run
ming from the railroad station over the
wall and into the works, along which
the imported ''scab" workmen are to be
brought to take the places Of any who
persist in objecting to Mr.. CARNEGIE's S
reduced scale of wages. Cook shops
have been erected within the enclosure,
and every provision made to enable Mr..
| CARNEGIE and his ''scabS" to snap
their fingers at the starving workmen
outside. Truly, in Mr. CARNEGIE MIR.

of them the Republican party has con-

Lieut.. Gov. G. S. Ives, of st. Peter,

didate for the Republican gubernatorial
nomination., and he is allowing no grass

yesterday he met number of the local
Republican leaders and discussed with
them the situation in Ramsey county.
His friends in this city are men VINO

out for me-"
There IS a report that you are to be

The PENSION BUSINESS.

There are few who do not believe
that the men who have served the coun-
try in the field in time of war should not
be generously cared for by the govern
ment. Homes should be provided for
the aged and infirm, and adequate pen
SionS given all whose circumstances re-
quire it. The meager pay given them
while in the army is no recOmpenSe for
the hardships and perils of active war
fare. 1t degradeS and belittIes their
sacrifices and heroism when an attempt
is made to measure them in hard coin
Or stamped paper. Their recompense
is found in the consciousness that they
have possessed the courage and de-
votion of true patriotism, and the
gratitude Of the nation they have
so noblY served. They should not be
thought of as mercenaries, whose ac-
counts can be squared by paying them
money. Great numbers of them are
treated niggardly, and with their ad-
vaDcing age and breaking physical
strength are not properly aided by the
pIttance of few dollars a month.
Others, perhaps majority of those who
are on the. pension rolls. have ample
means, and no more occasion for PEN
sions than the average person has for
two dinners in succession. The few
hundred dollars they ask of the govern
ment is trifle to them, and yet an enor-
mons total when aggregated. Some
who are miIlionaires greedily exact
of the government the last dollar
the law allows them. By thi
course they render it impossible to give
the needy and unfortunate old soldiers
enough to make life comfortable. These
sleek and weIl-padded individuals do
not accept the pensions as insignias of
honor forced upon them, but quietly
reach out for all they can get aud do not
like to have it known that they are re-

sECOND-TERM CANDIDATES.

There are arguments both for anu
against second terms in the presiden-
tial Office, but until after the Chicago
convention the topic will be discussed
very gingerly by either side in this lit
tie quadrennial controversy. The Re-
publican party has already named a.
second term candidate, and the Demo-
cratic party IS IN a fair way to follow
suit. There is this difference. however
(and it is a most important one). that
whereas Mr.. HARRISON is in nomjna-
ton to succeed himself, Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND, if he be nominated, will have
four years of private citizenship inter
vening between his last term of Office
and his present candidacy. The OBJ
lection which is chiefly urged against
second = term candidates is their
use of federal patronage to Sc
cure their reelection. This objec-
ton could not, of course, apply
to Mr. CLEVELAND this year. nor.
for that matter, did it apply to him four
years ago, when his defeat was largely
a result of his unwillingness to utilize
the spoils of Office in its own perpetu-
alton. Mr.. HARRISON, on the other
hand, exhibits conspicuous eagerness
to work the federal patronage for all it
IS worth in the direction of his own
continuance in power. he secured his
denomination through the exertions of
ofhcetelders. and he designs. to secure
a reelection in the same way.

all for Cleveland, and the delegation
was directed to use all honorable means
to secure his nomination. | believe. too,

THE FRIDAY SUPERSTITION.

Some of the Eastern papers, since the
nomination of HARRISON was made
Friday. are ridiculing Senator HANS
BRoUGH, of North Dakota. for having
intimated that the balloting should not
be had Friday on account of the pOpu-
lar superstition that it is an unlueky
day. One of them expresses aStonish-
ment that 4 man with sense enough to
get into the senate should be under
bondage" to such an absurdity. TO en-
phasiZe its estimate of the man. he is
paraded as "'Hon. HENRY c.. HANS
BROUGH. Of Devils Lake. n. D., sena-
tor from that new state" 1t might have
added that he is the national committee
man from North Dakota, who will
try tU elect HARRISON i'll spite
of the superstition. He may be
stigmatized as an ''egregieas i'd
iot," but he did not misrepresent the
fact that there is a widespread, though
not,S0 often aYOwed, impression that i'll
fortune IS likely to oyertake enterprises
begun On Friday. This superstition has
had recognition enough in the courts to
induce the selection of the day for hang
ing murderers. Most men have some
superStitiouS notions. however they
may laugh at those of others. Mr..
BLAINE the other day,on leaving Wash
ingtoL could not be iDdpeed to break his
practice never to pass through the depot
wheF6 GARFIELD was shot. There are
thousands of Republicans of both sexes
who are sorry that HARRISON was nomi-
mated on Friday. They may laugh at
the notion. but they feel that the result
will be bad. They do not remember
that any man nominated OH Friday was
ever elected president, and do not be-
lieye HARRISON will beat the record.
