a ticket which has been nominated
with singular unanimity, and specially
the name of Samuel ID. McEnery, our
for Governor, whose previous
successful administration of this high
office gave 81 -isfaction to the people OF
this State, aud has caused them t. call
him again from the high and dis

with so much credit aud honor to once

Robt. G. Wicklitfe, who was an honor
ed aud distinguished Governor of this
State over thirty years ago, and who,
his retirement from public SER
vice has resisted the Establishments

given his earnest and devoted services

in his old age, to give up the peace and
retirement OF private life at the earn

THE AUDITORIUM.

At the council meeting tonight the
most important question to come before
It will doubtless relate to the auditorium
project. The GLOBE notes with pleas
ure the almost universal sentiment in
favor of proceeding steadily onward to-
ward an early completion of the enter
prise. That opinion is divided upon the
question of site is but ali indication of
that sincere interest in the matter which
will surely win success. AS previously
stated, the GLOBE has no Interior OBJ
ject to advance by championiDg the
location of the auditorium upon any
particular site, either Rice park, the
market house, or the western half of
the market house grounds. 1t IS evident
Shat if Rice park is utilized a better,
more commodiOuS and coStlier edifice
would probably be erected, with ample
provision for housing the public library,
while if the market house site be chosen
an earlier completion of the building
would doubtless follow. The GLOBE is,
however. content to know that the mat
ter is in good hands, and that the best
Judgment will be exercised in deciding
upon the site, details, cost. etc. Once
erected, its many benefits will be
heartily appreciated by our citizens, and
we can still say that efforts to secure
the national Democratic convention
were not fruitleSs.

A Word About Quay.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Dear Sir: 1t is amusing to see the way
the Pioneer Press, in its editorial of this
morning, tries to convince its readers
that Matt Quay has been ''vindicated''
by the decisions of the two Republican
juries in the recent libel suits against
the Beaver Star and Pittsburg Post.
The New York World, in February, 1890.
brought specific charges of embezze-
ment, corruption, ETC., against this gen.
tleman while state treasurer of Pennsyl-
vania, and has repeatedly reiterated the
same since that time, and yet he has
failed to bring suit against this prom
inent newspaper for libel, as he should
If the charges are not true. Outside of
pennsylvania the general reading pub
lie have probably never heard of these
two newspapers, the Beaver Star and
Pittsburg Post, and yet the New York
World, with its nearly 100000 daily
issue, is severely let alone by Mr. QUAY,
even when it has been generoug enough
to offer to pay his legal expenses if he
would bring suit against the World for
libel. and thereby give it the chance of
SUbStantiating its charges ii a court of
law, or be condemned in heavy damages
for not sustaining the same.
Let Mr.. Quay take advantage of the
Worlds offer. even at this late day, and
obtain verdict in his favor, aud then
the Pioneer Press can give us a leader
on ''vindication of character" Yours

NEW YORK'S SAY so.

Ii there is anything else that Chicago
wants and doesn't see will she please
ask for it?-New York Advertiser.
We do not know exactly where New
York was yesterday when the light
went out, but there is evidence that she
was not in it.-New York Advertiser.
Chicago, June 2l-these are the
place and time. 'Tisn't matter of
much consequence, though; the next
president of the United States will be
nominated at Minneapolis just two
weeks earlier.-New York Tribune.
The present fact that Chicago is
stricken with water famine, because
Lake Michigan is solid to the bottom
with ice three miles out to the water
works cribs, may prove a cooling
thought to the sufferers at the Demo-
cratic convention when that and the
temperature reach the boiling point
next June.-New York Telegram.
Illinois has become debatable state,
and Iowa. its near neighbor, has been
twice carried by the Democrats. A ma
tional convention at the West may help
the party in both of those states, while
New York is surely Democratic, with a
wise nomination. regardless of where it
is made.-New York World.
To Chicago will belong the melancholy
distinction of entertaining the national
convention whose presidential nominees
will be defeated in November. 1t really
makes little difference where the Demo.
cratic national convention is held The
convention that will name the winning
ticket will assemble at Minneapolis on
June Z. 1S92.-New York Press.

ALL WANT MORE PEoP1E.

1t seems strange condition of affairs
when states like Maryland, Virginia,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire and
Vermont in the East are forced to es-
tablish immigration boards and enter
into competition with the Western COM
monwealths for the home-seekers who
flock to our shores. The abandoned
farms of New England have been grow
ing in number for the last decade, but
it is only recently that it was thought
best to attract public attention to this
condition of affairs by sending out in
vitations to people to come and
occupy the abandoned farms. The
continued exodus has forced the
three New England states to take
some action, and the state author
tiles III these states are senting
out literature and working as hard for
settlers as the newer commonwealth of
the West. Virginia received blow in

A CHICAGO VIEW.

The Chicago Herald is confident that
the selection of Chicago for the conven-
tion is in no way preJudicial to the
candidacy of Mr.. CLEVELAND. AS be-
tween the ex-president and any other
name suggested in the East the local
sentiment in Chicago is unequivocally
for the former. The fact that WAITER
SON, of Kentucky. was an earnest advo-
cate of Chicago is cited as one evidence
mat the location is not in the personal
Interest of the late governor Of New
York. Ii there were personal signii-

Herald would find it in the use of the
name of Senator PALMER, Of Hill

in that city is unit for the
senator, and if there is local demon
stration in favor of any man it Will be
for the Illinois man. Its words are that
1.-The Democracy of Chicago and of the
state of Illinois is solid for PALMER. 1t
is not improbable that the convention
will be equally solid for him before its
work is finiShed' One of the points
suggested in this connection is that he
would carry Illinois, Iowa and Wiscon-
sonsin. But the Herald does not mean
30 intimate that there is any purpose to
bring the name of its favorite before
the convention. Senator PALMER has
been an earnest CLEVELAND man ever
since the election of 1881, and has
just repeated his preference for the ex-
president. 1t is improbable that he
would allow his name to be used
in opposition to CLEVELAND; but, in
the event of his withdrawal or refusal
TO enter contest. the speculations in
regard to the Illinois man would take
material shape. The language used
Implies strong probability that the
contingency Will arise when the con-
venton may look to the West for the
man. 1t is becoming understood that
Mr.. CLEVELAND is not a candidate in
any active sense, and will probably re-
fuse to allow any acrimonious contest
to be had over his name. If this is
true, the Herald is not out of the way i'm

vention developing significance not

Is This Organization Booming Da-

To the Editor of the Globe.
OWATONNA, Mimi, Jan. 23.-I am in
formed by one of the leading and most
active Democratic politicians in the
state that the North Star Democratic
club, of Minneapolis, is formed and Or
ganiZed in the interest of. and for the
only purpose of making d. B. Hill the
next Democratic presidential nominee.
thought, and was informed by others,
that the object of this organization was
just the opposite.
| was much surprised to hear from a
man who | think knows what he is
talking about, that the North Star Dem
ocratic Club of Minneapolis, or any
other club, would dare an undertaking
of that kind in the state of Minnesota at
this particular time. as there is no doubt
whatever as to the feelings of the peO-
pie of Minnesota in regard to what
should be the main, leading and only
national issue on which the Democrats
should fight the next campaign.
1t is not necessary for lie to state here
what that Issue is, because every QUE
knows it ;but every one doesn't know that
David 3. Hill is not the man for and in
favor of that only issue upon which the
Democrats can win next fall.
The Democrats have one true and
tried leader upon this issue in Grover
Cleveland, and a great many others that
are yet not tried, but surely true to this
only issue that will bring them victory
next November, and a number of them
would make truSty leaders at present.
There is not particle of dOubt bnI1t
Grover Cleveland being the choice of a
great majority Of the Democrats of
Minnesota for the next presidential
nominee; and if the object of the North
Star Democratic Club of Minneapolis is
to defeat the Democratic and indie
pendent voters OF Minnesota in their
choice for the presidential candidate,
now is tue time they should be exposed,
aud the people should be fairly warned
against falling into any traps of this
nature.
am informed that this club consists
of about five Hill men to every one of
the Cleveland men, and that this club
intends to come to the convention in a
body and demand to be recognized as
such.
As the Hill politicians are five to one
Cleveland man, the club expect in this
way to be able to gain their object in
making Hill their choice
1t is the duty of the GLOBE as the
leading Democratic newspaper amongst
us to publish this matter, and try and
call out an answer from the North Star
Democratic Club of Minneapolis.
The Democrats and Independents are
anxious to know the object of this CLUB,
and they should now let us know at
once. o. j. KALLSTEAD.
