SENATOR PERKINS sEVRICES TO SOL
DIERS-NONE BUT REPUBLICANS NEED
APPLY.
Il has been apparent for some time
that rthe policy Of the Republican
party is to base pension claims and
other claims Of soldiers, upon service
to that party, and not upon military
service in the army and navy during
the war. Senator Perkins openly de-
clares this to be the principle govern
ing his action. This matter of PEN
sions is and has been used as q club
to hold old soldiers in line. We per-
sonally know of soldiers now reCeiv-
ing pensions who have been threat
ened that they would be stricken
from the rolls unless they should re-
turn to the Republican party.
But the case we now desire to pre-
sent to our readers is a very peculiar
one. It is one of more than ordinary
interests. Il is the case OF Thomas
o. Hsrter, Of this state, who has been
TO Washington during the present
session of congress endeavoring to se-
cure some substantial recognition Of
his services during the war.
That our readers may fully under
stand this case it will be necessary to
give something Of its history, and
this will be found in the report OF
Mr.. Dolliver from the committee on
war claims, to the house Of represen-
tstives.
Congressman Simpson introduced
a bill for the relief of Mr.. Harter
early in the session Of the present
congress, aud Mr.. Dolliver from the
committee on war claims Of the house
on March "a, submitted the following
favorable report:
The committee on war claims, to whom was
referred the bill, (H. r. 337l) granting to Sergt.
Thomas o. Harter, Company /, First Indiana
Cavalry, $4,000 and gold medal for losses and
service which, In July :snd August, 1862, saved
POpe's army Andl the nations capital from cap
ture by Lees army, most respectfully beg leave
to submit the following report thereon;
Sergt. Thomas o. Harter, while private In
Company /, First Regiment Indiana Volunteer
Cavalry, was selected by Mai. Gen. Franz Slgel
commanding the First Corps Of the Army Of
Virginia on July 81, 1852, Of whose body guard
Mr.. Harter was member, TO obtain such infor

DULUTH, MIMI, Feb. 2.-Charles
d. Autremont is the next mayor of Du-
luth. Democrats are wild with enthusi-
asm and are marching the streets
headed by band of music. Tin horns
are making night hideous, and hilarity
prevails everywhere. D'Autremont
made a fine speech in Democratic head
quarters. He attributes his election to
splendid organization and the support
of Republican friends. His plural
ity is 462. Democratic aldermen were
elected in the Second and Third wards,
both Republican strODgholds. The Peo-
pies candidates for aldermen were all
defeated. The Democrats and Peoples
party combined on two judges and both
were elected. The following is the
vote for mayor: Charles d'Antremont,
Democrat. 2,55S; Nj. j. Davis, Peoples.
2,096; Charles A. Long, Republi-
can, us; Mannem, independent, 81;
total vote, 5,434 D'Autremont's plural
ity, 462. The following aldermen were
elected: First ward, James Dingwall
Republican; Second ward, Morris
HOulao, OCLiOCidl. IHlIu NdIu, II. ..
Wilson, Democrat; Fourth ward, T. w.
Hugo, Republican; Fifth ward. j. w.
Nelson. Republican. The judges
elected were: Municipal judge. Roger
S. Powell, Democrat and Peoples; spe-
cial judge, Eric l.. Winnie.
The streets were filed all day with
large crowds gathered in knots ac-
cording to their different political COM
pleXion. All old-time Republicans were
working like beavers for Long, seeming
to be awakened at the last moment to
the fact that victory for the Democrats
would put the Republicans in bad
shape for next fall's campaign.
But their organization was bad,
and early in the day all
hope Of electing the Republicans
ticket has been abandoned. Democrats
were everywhere fighting like Trojans
from early morn till the polls closed.
Their organization was excellent, every
precinct being carefully looked after.
1t is estimated that at least leo Demo-
Gratis, all representative citizens, were
actively working for D'Autremont. but
Davis friends were not idle, though
more quiet. Cutters and bobsleighs
were tearing up and down Superior
street. running from preeinc. to pre-

Special to the Globe
MANKATO, Mimi, Feb. "A very
peculiar case of insanity has just de-
veloped itself in one of the most highly
respected families Of this city. The
afflicted lady is Mrs. S. G. Soule, of
South Front street. The history of the
case is as follows: In the early part of
January, while she was alone back Of
the house she heard the voices of three
men whose names she does not know.
AS they approached nearer she hid be-
hind the door of building to avoid be-
their plan, which was to rob the Man.
kato banks and then kill several of
the best men of the city unless
they gave large bonus for liberty. The
men then lett the premises, and she
tried to follow far enough to see who
they were, but her dress caught on the
buck saw and the noise attracted the
attention Of the gang. One OF the men
quickly returned and placed a revolver
against her head, and said. you can
become ones of Us or die" She
chose the former, and met the
gang at the Swedish church in West
VhoIihelIO clUOu6 OdIls II. OH kOUEudN
evening she went out of the house and
met one of the gang, who told her she
must meet them at once at the former
place of meeting. She promised to be
there i'll twenty minutes, but instead of
going there directly she went to the
house of William Thomas to
inform him of the meeting, and thus en-
able him to get the police to capture the
whole gang. She carried a revolver in
her left hand.
W hen she entered Mr. Thomas house
and had couple of bullet holes in hsr
shawl, her actions were SO strange that
the colonel had her arrested and put in
the lookup. The strangest part of it all
is that she seems perfectly rational on
every other subject. She told her story
to the chief of police several days ago,
but he could find no trace of truth in it.
She also worried the listed men of the
approaching danger, but none of them
believed her story. The board of exam
lining physicians, consisting of Drs.
Warner, Jacoby and Davis, are still in
consultation.

FARM HELP WANTED.
North Dakota Farmers Asked to
Respond at Once.

GRAND FORKS, N. D., Feb. 2.-Presi-
dent E. G. ID. Shortridge issues the fol-
lowing notice of farm help wanted:
We are assured by the Great y orthern and
the Northern Pacific railroads that they will
cheerfully cooperate with the people of
North Dakota in securing all the necessary
help for seeding, spring and summer plow-
ing and threshing. All persons desiring help
will please state the number of hands and
teams needed, the length of time wanted and
the prices they are willing to pay. and
send the same to the secretary of the
Farmers Alliance, or the Herald, the Nor
mond, the Northwest News. the Plain Dealer
or the Independent, at Grand Forks, giving
the name and postoffice address. The utmost
activity and promptness is necessary to Sc
cure this information and help in time for
the spring work. Will our farmers respond
in a businesslike way? Our railroads fur
nished hundreds of machines and thousands
of men during the threshing season. Papers
of the state please copy.
This is the plan suggested a month
ago, and repeatedly urged by the Her
aid. The utmost activity and prompt
ness is surely necessary, and the Co
operation of the Twin City press and
commercial organizations are needed,
