IT'S CHiCAGO'S PLUM.
The Windy City Gets the Demo-
cratic National Convention.
MILLS AND CRISP QUARRELlNG.
Crisp is Reported Wroth Because Mills
Failed to Notify Him OF His Eesigna-
tion-Mr. Bland's Silver Biil-Justice
Bradley Died This Morning.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The Democratic
National Committee last night on the fif-
teenth ballot selected Chicago as the place
for holding their Presidential convention,
giving her q votes.
The highest vote received by New York
was ten. The arguments advanced in be-
half of the metropolis were generally
looked upon as merely Tammany
bluff as that organization feared the
influence OF Mr. Cleveland and his free
trade, anti-silver and Mugwump friends.
Chicago, which was not represented by
boomers, was chosen as compromise be-
tween the western cities, and is perfectly
satisfactory TO the silver inflationists and
tariff tinkerers, rs well as TO Senator Hill.
Senator Turpie advocated the claims OF
indianapolis; &. K. Putnam and Senator
Vest, Kansas City; Judge Follett, Gin
cinnati;, Mr. Maybury, Detroit; Governor
were urged by Mr.. Breslin on behalf of
the hotel keepers; by Comptroller Meyers
and by Colonel Fellows.
At the conclusion of the arguments the
committee went into executive session and
balloting was begun. The date of the
convention was fixed for June 81. Mayor
Honey of Newport voted for Chicago, al
though he is Cleveland man.
The Chicago scheme was worked up by
Hill, Brice and German, whose little plan
was cleverly exposed by Villas question
put to Brice in the middle of the latter's
argument for Chicago. How do you
know Chicago wants il 2" said he, and
Brice fell into the trap very innocently
with his answer that he had guarantees
from the city's wealthiest and solidest
men, thus acknowledging that he had
canvassed that point long beforehand.
Mills md Crisp.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22-Speaker Crisp is
said TO be very angry because Mills failed
10 notify him of his resignation of the
chairmanship of the commerce commit.
tee, while his friends in the Honse declare
that they will resent the insult whenever
the occasion offers. When Mr.. Mills went
TO Texas before the holidays, he named
Mr. Wise of Virginia, who ranks second
on the commerce committee to act as
chairman, and the latter Immediately ap-
pointed clerk from among his constitu-
ents
1t remains TO be seen whether the
Speaker will undo this act of friendship
on the part of the Texan, and show him
that he cannot name the chairman of a
committee upon which he himself declines
TO serve.

ADLAI E. STEVENSON.

MANS INHUMANITY TO MAN.
The brutality of the mob which pre-
vented the landing of Quarantined pas
sengers on Fire island is almost beyond
belief. There was never the slightest
intention of landing any of the sick
there, although there would have been
no possibility of danger even in that,
owing to the isolated position of the
Surf hotel and its surrounding cottages.
1t was the purpose to land only those
whose ailment was weakness and weari-
ness from long days in the cramped
quarters on shipboard, with insufficient
food and water. But this mob of cow
ards, robbed of the last vestige of man
hood by the fear that was on them, re-
fused TO allow even the helpless chill
dren and the aged women to be landed.
1t was an exhibition of inSenSate cru
city rarely equaled in the annals even
civilization to the blush. 1t shows up
in vivid colorS the ugly, despicable. in
sane SelGShneSS and coWardice of men
who on ordinary occasions wear the
seeming of enlightened Christians. The
plea that the mob were but fighting for
their own wives and mothers is not
teDable. No man whose thoughts were
of his own loved ones could brutally
drive back silver-haired grandmothers
and little babes in arms from the succor
they so much needed. 1t was abject
personal fear which ruled this mob and
made them lot of crazy monsters be-
yond the reach of reason. Gatling guns
were the proper argument to use with

A Populist Opinion OF Kelso.

CrookSton Times.
In speaking of the nomination of w.
f. KeIso for congress by the Democrats,
the Red River Dalen, published in this
city, and which is the Peoples organ,
has the following to say of that gentle
man:
1T is our opinion that the Democrats
of this district this time made very
good and sensible choice. MIR. Kelso is
man of honor and gentleman all
through. He is vely we'll posted in all
the problems of the day that demand
and have to be considered and solved.
A farmer himself, he is intimately in
terested in every measure that can help
to enlighten the pressure under which
the American farmer now suffers, and
upon the whole give the American agri-
cultural interests and demands his at
tention, and will cause them to be
heard in the balls of congress. Upon
the whole, we ought in the future send
fewer jurists and more farmers to repre-
sent us in the congressional halls"
The Red River Dalen is fearless ad-
VOcate of the people. and, while it is
considered The mouthpiece of the party
and carries at the head of its columns
the name of III. E. Boen for congress,
still it would seem from the above that
Boen is not receiving the undivided
support of the Dalen, and that in w. f.
Kelso the paper finds an able, conscien-
tlouS worker III the cause of the strug-
Cling mass of humanity who will, on
Nov. s, take good care that their tickets
shall read "FOr Congress from the Sew
enth District, w. +. KeisO."

There is trouble in Mexico. Mischief

Rebellion has broken out among the
mountalneers of Sonora, chiefly Indians
and half-breeds. With monotonous reg
ularity and remarkable impartiaIity the
rebels have bowled over the generals
and captains and lieutenants sent
against them. The regulars don't
seem to be any sort of match for these
belllcose mountaineers.' First 'sGen.
RANJEL with the Eleventh battalion

rotting somewhere out there under the
hot Sonora sky, ard most of his 500 brave
followers are in the same fix. The

speedily get into the same unhappy con-
dition.

GROWERS ELECTION ASSURED

The news which comes from the rock
ribbed hills of Vermont and the pine
woods of Maine is sweet music to DEM
ocratic ears. 1t means the certain cleo
ton Of GROVER CLEVELAND to the
presidency of the United States for the
term beginning the 4th of March, 1898.
/ There can be no mistaking the drift of
public sentiment even in the slow-going
communities OF the far Northeast. for in
every county of Vermont and Maine the
same story of revolt against the Repub-
lican party is told in the returns. What
the figures show has taken the Repub-
lican leaders by surprise. and they are
not sufficiently recovered from the
shock to formulate a plausible ex-
PLANTATION for the landslide. The
Democrats were expecting nothing from
either community, and made almost no
effort to get out their voters. bit even
with this evident apathy the Republican
majority in Vermont was cut down more
than 5000, and in Maine it went down
to 10000. which is but little more than
half the Republican plurality in 1890,
the year the Democrats carried the coun-
try by majority of more than million
votes. The two little Northeastern COM
monwealths merely indicate to the coun-
try what the GLOBE will be pleased to
announce eight weeks from this MORN
ing-the election of GROVER CLEvE-
LAND. From this hour 1t will be moth
ing but grand scramble to get into the
Democratic band wagon. The people
stand just where they did two years ago
on the MCKINLEY tariff robbery, and
there is no longer the shadow of doubt
as to the emphasis of their vote in No
vember. This is Minnesota's oppor-
tunity to join the great procession NOV
ing to victory in favor of the masses
against the classes.

The conduct of the policemen in the
Cepheus has caused criticism. There
were twenty of them in all, eight in
uniform and twelve in plain clothes.
Mr.. Palmer said that of course it would
have been an easy matter for the men
on the Cepheus TO have repelled the mob,
but that they could hardly act under the
circumstances. He thought the police
should at least have landed and caught

he believed two determined men could
have effected landing. The officer
of the ship said the police wers
much more interested in what
they had to eat and drink
than they were in fighting. Late to-
night men were circulating among the
passengers in the hotel, Offering to take
them across to the main shore for $50
head. DR.. Vofght had patrol of fif-
teen men out tonight guarding the hotel

GIVE HIN A SHOW.

Monday night while Hon. c. K. DAVIS,
accompanied by vocal quartette and
brass band, was making himself poDu-
lar with his party at Market hall, where
was Hon. A. r. KIEFER? Nearly hun
dred Republicans turned out in spite of
the counter attractions of the evening
to listen to our senior senator. While
he was the recipient of cheers and was
gracefully bowling in response TO the
adulatIon of the vocal quartette, the
brass band and the assembled multi
tude. the greatest living orator of the
county was in his office on Seventh
street, addressing fen or adozen men.
Is this the square thing? The GLOBE pro-
tests against this style of treating Hon.
A. r. kIEFER. The Republicans, hav-
ing nominated him for congress. ought
to give him show. they are evidently
conspiring TO keep him in the back
ground, TO hide his light under busbel.
to muffie his eloquent voice behind
blanket. This is not fair to him or TO
tie .oters of this district. Let Mr.,
