IGNAFIUs AND KNUTE.

The esteemed Philadelphia Telegraph
has discovered that 1.-THE existing rivalry
between KNUTE NELSON, the nominee
for governor of the Minnesota Repub-
licans, and IGNATIUS DoNNELLY, the
champion of the Peoples party, results
from their old-time rivalry in the Min
neSota state senate more than ten years
ago. They were continually at war Oh
points of parliamentary procedure.
One point raised by NELSON
against the Baconian sage was SO knOtty
that it gave the lieutenant governor a
three days search of the books before
he could decide 1t. His final decision
was against DoNNELLY, to the great
amusement of the entire state"
Amusement is still the right name for
it. 1t is impossible to take the antics of
these two ''reiormers" seriously. They
are all things at all times. and for the
all-pervading purpose of being heard
from. In the house KNUTE NELSON
voted for the MILLS bill for purposes OF
self-advertisement. He desired to be
distinguished from his fellow Republic
an members, who were content to OBJ
SCuItly tiOOp diOilS uilucT buGT party B
banner. He yearned for notoriety and
for the vulgar pleasure of showing
OFF," That he was actuated by any
higher motive in his advocacy of the
MILLS bill-that it was, in short, mat
ter of principle with hints disproved
by the facility with which he now
jumps back to a high protection plat
form, which offers him the best vantage
point for purposes of seif-advancement
and advertisement. Can such acrobatic
patriotism be taken seriously?
And DoNNELLY = well. every body
knows DoNNELLY's record as an all
around acrobat. He is a whole circus
i'll himself. Our Philadelphia coptem-
porary will doubtless be pleased to learn
that the state is still being amused by
these trick politicians. 1t must be con-
fessed, however, that the amusement is
somewhat mitigated by disgust. The
State will, in fact, be well content to
make this the farewell appearance of
these agile harleGuins.

KINGS SENTENCE COMMITTED.

In committing the death sentence OF
Col. H. CLAY KING, Gov. BUCHANAN.
of Tennessee, has made himself subject
TO severe censure throughout the I'M
chivalric North. Nor do we think that
even in the South, where gentlemen
and ''men of honor" quite cuStomarly
conSign their disputes to the arbitra-
ment of bullets-not even there will
public sentiment approve the exercise
OF executive cemency in the case of the
slayer of DAVID PosToN.
The killing OF PoSToN is still fresh in
public remembrance. 1t occurred on
the morning of March TO- 1891, on one
of the principal streets of Memphis.
AS KING advanced upon his victim the
latter. thinking King was making an
overture toward reconciliation, held
out his hand in token of friendship.
Dashing the hand aside, KING placed the
muZzle OF a revolver against PosToN's
side and pulled the trigger. The cow
ardly shot did its work only too we'll.
and PosToN fell dying into the arms of
a friend. 1t was murder, plain and
simple, cowardly and calculated. For
months KING had meditated the deed,
and at last, screwing his courage to the
sticking point with whisky, he
brought his man down without Civ
Ing him word of warning or
chance to defend himself. This
manner of homicide Is not cOnsonant
with the Southern sense of honor, no
matter what Gov. BUCHANAN's opinion
of it may be. To shoot man who is
offering to shake hands with you is not
the way of Southern gentlemen in set
Ting disputes of honor, no matter how
much to the contrary some of our small
bore Northern newspapers may de-
claim. For his interference in KINGS
behalf. Gov. BUCHANAN Will probably
be evea more severely criticised in the
South than in the North.
3 The history of the feud between
KING and PosToN offers no palliation
for the crime. The inevitable woman
in the case was Mrs. GIDEON j. Pill
Low, widow of the Confederate general
of that name. For this woman KING de-
serted his wife and children, and to this
woman he decided valuable property.
When he wearied of her, or she Of him,
he sought to recover the property by
suit. PoSTON was retained as Mrs.
PILLOWS attorney, and out of this grew
the feud. 1t was not, strictly speaking,
feud, either, inaSmuch as PoSToN had
never made threats of personal violence
against KING. 1t was, as asserted
above. simply cold-blooded murder;
and, according to all the facts known
TO the public and to the jury which con-
yicted RING. the latter should have
paid the death penalty for his cowardly
crime.

Igawler VIII Win.

Chicago Herald
Frank Barrett, the partner of ex-Gov.
Campbell in mining business in Min
nesota, was at the Grand Pacific yester-
day. He oscillates between Ohio and
Minnesota, and keeps posted on polit-
ical affairs in both states. He holds
the same political faith as does the ex-
governor, and predicts that Minnesota
will elect a Democratic governor and
give Its electoral vote to the Democratic
candidates, but says that it is hardly
probable that Ohio can be wrested from
the Republicans. ''Lawler is popular
man in Minnesota, and his chances of
election are eminently better than ale
Nelson's,' he said. 'The record of the
latter Oh the tariff question is such as
to detract from his vote. He is too
much of a protectionist for the Demo-
Gratis and too much of free trader for
the Republicans. Minnesota farmers
are all ready for tariff reform, as their
vote next November will show"

MOORISH SOLDIERS FALL.
One Hundred OF Them Are Killed
by Tribesmen.

TANGIER, Aug. 10.-At $50 this
morning the Moorish troops made
another advance in the direction of the
territory occupied by the rebellious
tribesmen. They assembled the hills and
set fire to number of villages. The
inhabitants fled upon the approach of
the troops. They also set fire to the
bushes to prevent the tribesmen from
finding shelter among them. Two thou
sand of the sultan's troops made two
attacks upon the rebellious Angherite
tribesmen and were each time driven
back in great disorder. Orders were
finally given for the troops to re-
treat, and the force, III a
badly demoralized condition, made their
way to the camp at Iangier. Consider
able excitement prevails in the city, as
it is feared that the tribesmen, in the
first flush of their victory, may attempt
an attack upon the city. The Moorish
soldiers Jared very badly in their ell
gagements. 100 of their number being
either killed or badly wounded. The
Angherites, ON the other hand, suffered
but few casualties.

THE CASE OF JUDGE NOR
MILE

When man kills himself because of
charges brought against him in news
paper he is either guilty as accused, and
afraid to face the consequences. or he
is tie victim of a most outrageous abuse
of the liberty of the press.
A case in point is that of Judge JAMES
e. NoRMILE, of st. Louis, who has COM
Initted suicide because of imputations
against his official honesty made by the
st. Louis Post-Dispatch. AS result of
these charges Judge NoRMII.E had in
stituted suits against the Post-Dispatch
for heavy damages; but either this
method of redress seemed to him in
adequate, or he feared to face the issue.
in note which he left he states briefly
that it had devolved upon HIM to kill
either himself or his detractors, and
''preferring suicide to murder, and see
ing no other course open," he had de-
termined on the former.
About the merits Of the controversy
between Judge NoRMILE and the Post
dispatch the public outside of st.
Louis is not informed. By MANY the
suicide will be at once accepted as con-
elusive evidence OF guilt, and the Post
Dispatch eXonerated. But, on the other
hand, there is the argument that a man
who valued his reputation so highly as
to find life uncomfortable under the bare
mputatlon of dishonesty could not
awe risked his reputation and his life
oy being actually dishonest. Whatever
may be the real merits Of the case, how
ever, it is certain that the situation
holds little comfort for those who di-
rected the newspaper attack on Judge
CoRMILE. They have shouldered
burden of responsibility which will
bear heavily on them through life, and
perhaps even more heavily in the here
after. The sad incident should serve as
salutary warning to pencilers who are
prone to let malice aud all un"ho ritaLlA

SAN FRANcIsco, Cal. Aug. 1O.-Jim
Burge, OF Australia. and Billy La Vigne,
of Saginaw, Mich, lightweights, en-
gagged in a finish fight for

Jabbed at long range, Burge egging him
From the sixth to the ninth ninth
round Burge shaped up better
and kept La Vigne guessing.
He would drop his head and take La
Vlgne's half-arm jolts in the face at
close quarters without a return, but
would swing his right on the head or
kidneys as La Vigne got away. The
next five rounds were slow, La Vigne
avoiding close quarters. The next
three rounds were little warmer,
Burgess left ribs were somewhat
marked and he had lost tooth. La
Nigne was apparently as good as ever.
Ihe seventeenth to the twenty-first
were much like the preceding rounds.
From the twenty-first Burge went in
desperately, but La Vigne's stiffness
saved the latter much punishment. The
contest looked no nearer conclusion at
the twenty-third than at the commence
ment.
The only thing to vary the monotony
OF the next four rounds was La Vigne's
gallop around the ring. Burge was
getting tired, while La Vigne's con-
fldence was on the increase, and he dis
dained to land blow except on the
most favorable opportunity.
The twenty-ninth and thirty-first
rounds were marked by some hot ex-
changes. In the thirty-fourth Lavigne
caught Bnrge one of the hardest blows
of the fight, a left-arm jolt Oh the face,
sending the Australian to the ropes. In
the thirty-fourth Layigne got i'm strong
left upper-cut, with a shoulder nudge,
that nearly did the Australian.

tor McMillin received probably fatal
injuries. Brakeman Frank Leonard

ADVISED TO HURRY,
Canadian Demonstration May

Canadian FrOCraSClnat alton may
Have Serious Results.
TORONTO, Ont, Aug. 1.-THE Mail,
abiding to the official and semi
official reports that are made on the
subject of the intentions of the govern
ment with respect to canal tolls, says:
lit will ito doubt be found that the
position is really this: The government
has discussed the subject in council, and
has practically decided to withdraw the
rebate, but has not rendered its decision
to the governor general in official form,
and is therefore unable to announce it.
There is disposition to assail
the ministers for what is termed their
position in the breakdown. This is not
so. The ministers may be blamed for
entering upon policy in respect of
which adverse representations have
been made from the other side without
first counting the cost and de-
termlnining upon the possibility of
continuing it. But it is a false
national pride which insists that they
shall pursue a course which, i'll the end,
may lead to further difficulties. If the
government intends, as it is believed it
does, to abolish the rebate, it ought to
do SO before the American law placing
an embargo on Canadian vessels at the
Sault comes into force"

A CHANCE FOR BENJAMIN.

Inasmuch as President HARRISON has
evinced himself to be nothing if not
beligerent, and really fonder of an in
ternational 'scrap" than of CARNEGIE
Scotch whisky, why doesn't he jump
into the Cuban breach? 1t is a great
chance for him-greater than either
Italy or Chilli afforded. We would have
had to take either of these two countries
single-handed, but in the case of Cuba
we would have Spain to help us. With
SPANS assistance Mr.. HARRISON ought
to have good lighting chance against
Cuba, and perhaps, after all, the war
racket could be worked 10 boost the
doughty little brigadier again into the
presidency. AS the conqueror of Cuba
Mr.. HARRISON would be invincible at
the polls. 1t would be instantly recog-
niZad that he had saved this country
millions of dollars annually by thwart-
ing Cuba's designs on us. There is no
mistaking what those designs are. The
present Cuban revolutionary movement,
operating from this country as base of
supplies, is merely the forerunner of
bold scheme TO compel this country to
annex the island. Spanish rule is to be
overthroWn first, and then the Cubans
are going to come at Uncle Sam, ham.
mer and tongs. Without Spain's assist
aDce we might be outmatched and COM
PEELED TO take in the pesky little island,

habits. The only way to save ourselves
is 10 act now in conjunction with Spain
to crush the revolutionists. 1t is the
grand opportunity of Mr.. HARRIsoN's
administration. Let him buckle on his
