STATE PRESS TIPS.

Says the Still Gazette: 'Donnelly
has commenced his talk, opening at Green
isle, II Sibley county, where he told the good
people that had been induced to come out
and hear him that he was wild 'em' from
start to finish. and that if they followed him
they could own threshing machines and wear
diamonds. He will ontinue On this strain
from now until election day unless removed

GEM"
The Mankato Free Press relieves its mind
by explaining that while the great unterri-
fed are doubtless pleased to have Mr.. DON
nelly authoritatively state that he will remain
a factor i'll the campaign, because they hope
10 profit thereby. yet the sage of Nininger
lays the lash upon them in a sore spot when
he alludes to the Alabama election, and
declares that it has cast its vote for the Peo-
pies party, and intimates that it indicates a
victory for his party in several of the South
ern states next November"
Says the Falrmont News: sTh Mankato
Free Press has a long editorial on the next
Legislature and says it is very important
to see to the election OF good men. ETC., espe-
cially as a United States senator has 10 be

The Mankato Review notes the fact that
Senator Washburn, in q recent interview
since his return from Washington, gives it as
his opinion that after this falls election the
Democratic party il the South will topple to
pieces. The wish is father to the thought.
But if the senator will only think a moment

Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
MANkATo, Aug. IS What may prove
to be a dastardly murder occurred here
at al early hour this morning. A visit
to the scene of the tragedy showed that
Leonard Ray, a man about sixty years
of age. had been robbed of $50 and had
received fatal wounds. Mr.. Ray is an
employe at Willard & Polchow's brick
yards,a as is also Frank Kiefer, who is sup
posed to be the guilty party. Kiefer's
wife left him some time ago and went
to Clear Lake, To-, but now wishes to
return, and he was trying to borrow
money from several men last
night, but was refused in each
case. About 1890 o'clock he met
Ray i'll a saloon, and asked for the
money which he knew Ray had, and
which he received. The injured man
has a family here, but sleepsin a shanty
IL the brick yard. 1t is thought he was
followed home from the saloon ana
robbed. He was found by his fellow
workmen this morning in a dying con
dition, with his skull crushed, one ear
severed from the head and one finger
nearly cut off. The other hand was
also bruised.
Keifer claimed to be a butcher, and is
about forty years of age. He is either
in hiding or has skipped out. A terrible
struggle must have enSued, as there is
a lot of blood outside the shanty and
also inside. Ray is alive, but unc0n-
scIous. and recovery would be miracul-
Gus.

The Strike May BE Pushed to
Extreme Limits.
BUFFALO, Aug. 1S.-There can be no
doubt tonight but that before yielding
this fight the leaders will extend their
strike west ever to Chicago, and east
ward to New York, ultimately calling
out perhaps not only switchmen, but
firemen and trainmen. The strikers
look forward to developments in the
-neXt three days.
Although he is keeping his where
aboutS profoundly secret, there can be
little doubt that Master Workman
Sergeant, of the locomotive hremen's
organization, is in this city. The strik-
ers claim full sympathy OH the part of
the firemen, and they state that if they
are called out they will quit their en-
gines wherever the order may reach
them.
? Master Workman Wilkinson, of the
tralnmen'S order, is here tonight, and it
is said that his men are ready TO Join
the Switchmen whenever ordered, but
that the firemen, if ordered out, will
probably be first called. 1t is we'll to
remember in weighing the claims and
statements of the strikers that this
movement, unlike that of two years ago,
upon the Central, bears the stamp of
official regularity. 1t had been handled
and directed with d~eiiberatiun, and the
strikers tonight say that. if deemed
necessary in the next three days, the
movement will be extended from New
York to Chicago.

Seemingly Rational Account Of
the Murder, With a Strange
Reason Given.

FALL RIVER, Mass. Aug. 1S.-Charies
II. Peckham, of Central Village, West
port, Mass, walked INTO the central DO
lice station this morning and said to
Assistant Marshal Fleet;
We'll. Mr.. Marshall. l killed Mr.. and Mrs.
Andrew j. Borden and l have come from
home to give myself up. / wen over the
back fence ana through The rear door of the
Borden house two weeks ago today and |
killed both those people out of pure love for
blood. / went out the rear door and over the
back fence and walked over the New Bed
ford road home. l am the murderer and L
want to be locsed up" .
Tine marshal toOk him to the cell room
and searched him. He found a pocket
book with a few receipts in it, and also
unearthed some official communications
from the Russian bureau at Washing
tom. =
Peekham is sixty-two years of age,
about 5 feet 6 inches tall and has a thin,
gray beard. He is crazy beyond all
doubt. He was allowed to go into the
guard room after a short confinement in
a cell and begged several uniformed Of
ficerS to hang him. Assistant Marshal
Fleet told him to follow him and he
would accommodate him. He was taken
to the cell Don and locked up again.
Peckham says he has had some trouble
with his family. His home originally
was at Mlddletown, Conn.

BUFFALO,, Aug. 1S.-The sixth day of
the ~switchInen's strike in this city
closed with Increasing complications.
II leaders of the strike have wit
messed the movement and massing of
troops with growing determination to
meet every advance of their opponents
with a counter-strOke. Before tomor-
row shall have daWned, 5000 troops in
the state militia service Will be upon
the field here to watch and control
about 500 strikers. The presence of so
large a number of soldiers is relied
upon by the railway officials as a cover
under which they may put to work nom
union men already engaged to break
the freight blockade.
what the counter-Stroke of the strike
leaders may be to this situation was at
rlghtfall tonight problematic; but it is
not beyond the range of near possibili-
ties that the firemen and the trainmen
OF all the lines where strikes now pre-
vail may be called out. The situation
may be broadly stated thus: The latest
addition of strength to the striking
switchmen was ninety men in the
Nlckle Plate yards, who struck because
they were compelled to handle boycott
ed freight.
~VanderbiIts Tied Up.
Now the swltchmen upon the entire
vanderbilt system in this vicinity are
out. The Lake Shore men went out
solely to add strength to the movement
OF their fellows. The Nickel Plate men
who went out today struck only out of
sympathy, for they are receiving at least
10 per cent higher rates than the men
who originated the strike. The Michi-
gan Central, which is of the Vanderbilt
system, practically has no yards in Buff
falo, their switching being done on the
Central's tracks.
The leaders OF the striking men held
that the Vanderbilt roads are tied up
and inactive at this point. They urge in
addition that the Erie, the Lehigh Val
ley and the Buffalo Creek roads are
likewise paralyZed by the strike. The
reserve grounds for operations is a pos
sible calling out of the s%wiuchmen on
tue Delaware, Lackawarna & Western,
Buffalo, Rochester Il Pittsburg, and the
Western New York IL Pennsylvania
roads. The relations of these roads
"AH sNS L wv L CAIitttlClS
amicabie, and they will not be called
out except to make the strike absolutely
complete i'll this vicinity. Indeed it is
more probable that the firemen and
trainmen Will be called ont on the lines
already affected by the switchmen's
strike.
The state board of arbitration met
this afternoon and prepared a circular,
which was sent to the executive
officers OF the roads OH which the
trouble exists. 1t stated that the switch
men had expressed "a willing
ness to arbltrate, and required
to be informed whether the rail
roads would consent to an adjustment
OF the difficulty by such arbitration.
Vice President Webb returned a reply
which is believed to embody the senti-
ment of the officials of the other roads.
1t was to the effect that the Central had
nothing to arbitrate.

MAMMOTH Hot SPRINGS, yellow

ID had their first real taste of soldering
yesterday on their marcn from Cinnibar
to Mammoth Hot Springs. Two troops
of cavalry, located at this point, Capt.
Anderson commanding, received the
boys and escorted them to
the parade ground, where the
mounted cavalry gave a grand
exhibition OF army cavalry tactics. Last
evening the Mandolin and Guitar club,
composed of John Ryder, William Ry-
der, Charles Ryder and John Roedler, of
Company ID, discoursed some elegant
music at Mammoth Hot Springs hotel,
much to the delight of the hundreds of
guests present. Among the most prom
inent persons at the hotel here are Mai.
Jones and family, of st. Paul. Mr..
Jones has charge of the Yellowstone
Park improvement work. Supt. Dean,
has extended to the press representa-
tives, accompanying Capt. Bean and his
command through the park, the free
use of its telegraph lines and hotel ac-
commodations. The weather is
extremely hot and in order
to avoid marching in the
hot sun as much as possible early and
late marches in the future will be
made. A tour of all the interesting
points was made, and later Oh in the
evening the majority of the compa-
ny went bathing in Bath lake near here.
The water is quite warm, and afforded
a most luxurious bath. The march from
Mammoth Hot Springs to Obsidian cliff
will be commenced at 4 o'clock tomor-
row morning. 1t Is reported here that
Secretary Mobiles, of the interior, is eX-
pected up here in a few days.
FOUNTAIN GEYSER BASIN. Wyo., Aug.
1S.-Company ID today made a record for
themselves by marching from Norris
GeySer Basin to this point, a distance of
tNenty-three miles IN eight hours, which
is remarkably good time, considering the
many steep bills to ascend. Capt. Bean
informs the GLOBE representative that
their schedule prepared previous to
departure from st. Paul will be carried
out to the letter. This means Il daily
walk of twelve to eighteen miles.

4 Good Place TO Go.

A friend writing to me from Atlanta
says: Il have just returned from an
outing of ten days in the mountains Of
Northern Georgia. While absent | found
a woman whose age Is 116 years, and
this is authentic. She talks senSibly
and while L was with her she sang sew
eral verses of the hymn. When l Can
Read My Title Clear She does not
know one letter from another-has
always lived i'll the wilds of North GeOr-
gia in a little hut on the side of a steep
hill-almost a mountain. Deep forests,
tangled underground. rugged hills and
wild ravines surround her rude abode,
and yet, she is the brightest Christian [
ever saw. She dwells constantly upon
the glory and goodness of God, her
hopes of heaven and immortality beyond
the grave. L had my faith strengthened
by hearing her talk, poor old ignorant
wOman that she is. She told Inc that
she had been a member of the church
for one hundred years."
Georgia seems to be tie home of many
old people. There is the record of one
who lived to be 127 years old. When he
was 112 he mounted his horse. and rode
u to the mountain region. killed a deer
and took it home. He was in the habit
of saying, God has forgotten me-" But
at last the call came and he passed over
to join his contemporaries who had long
preceded him. R. w. JOHNSON.

CASTLE.

Capt. CASTLE, of Saltwater, whom
the Democrats hOnored yesterday with
a denomination, has enjoyed the dis
tinction during the past year of repre-
senting in the Fifty-second congress the
most populouS district in the United
States. The new apportionment ma
teriallv reduces the number of his con
S%tituentS, but it remains to be seen
whether it will change another char
acteristic of theirs which is still more
extraordinary. The congressional dis
trict which includes Ramsey county has
for some time been not only the largest
in the country. but also the most tickle.
1t has tired of its public men with q
discouraging iteration, and no faithful
ness of service has availed TO secure for
any IL of them a %protracted term of
office. This section has at all the recent
sessions been respectfully. if not con
spicuously, well represented. But Mr..
G~ILFILLAN, Mr.. RICE and Mr.. SNYDER
have in succession been denied the in
dCrSement of a second term.
In general it is a bad thing for a dis
trict to change its representative too
often. The predominating influence of
the South in national Legislation, both
before and since the war, is due to the
fact that it has returned the same men
to Washington year after year. The
size of the lower house, as at present
constituted, and its confused and COM
pllcated methods of t~ransacting bust
ness, make 1t impossible for a repre-,
sentative to achieve any great degree of
usefulness until he has had considera-
bic experience. 1t takes several months
for him to gain an acquaintance with
the practices which obtain there. A
district which is as tickle as ours has
been Injurious to itself by adopting such
a system of rapid rotation. 1t depriyeS
itself of a spokesman because it never
has on hand a man who has learned OF
had an opport unity to speak for it.
Capt. CASTLE has proved a very salts
factory representative, and gives prom
Use of developing into a political force
at the capitol if he is continued at his
post. He is in the prime of life, well
liked by the average man, not easily
discouraged, self-confident, aggressive,
industrious and ambitious. These are
all qualities which count in giving q
legislator weight and the capacity OF
accomplishing important results. They
are also of value Oh the stump, and oul
nominee has the reputation of being q
hard and successful campaigner. He
will need all his equipment in
this direction in order to win
the victory in the pending con-
test. The country counties attached
to st. Paul are naturally Republican in
their complexion, and in spite of his
unfitness. Col. KIEFER has much
strength in this city. The enemy here,
as elsewhere throughout the state, is
pursuing the policy Of selecting foreign
born candidates exclusively for ali Of
fees, and if its calculations do not mis-
carry it will in each instance be sure of
the entire vote of the nationality it sig
mails out for distinction. This will give
it an initial advantage only to be over
come by earnest effort. The GLOBE is
confident that Capt. CASTLE will be our
next congressman. but he will have to
fight vigorously for the honor.

= Row tIle Western
Campaign Fund Will Be Used.

THE DIFFERENCE.
To the Republican organ which desig-
mates the Western Democratic campaign
fund as "a corruption fund" we have
nothing to say. To the people who have
been and will be subjected to the neceSS-
ty of seeing such idiocy in print we have
this to say:
The Western Democratic campaign
fund is not a Nanamaker fund.
Ii does not represent the campaign
blacKmail levied OH favored plutocrats
to perpetuate %plutocratic legislation.
It is not an eXactiOn wrung from
o~fficeholderS by ~officeholderS in viola
ton OF the civil service law.
1t does not appeal to the instincts of
greed to swell the resources of venality.
1t will not place in the hands of
Quays and DudleyS the means of
thwarting the will of the people.
1t is in every respect and particular,
in origin and purpose, in method and
nature, distinctly and Numerically the
opposite of all that is evil i'll American
politics.
1t is a. voluntary contribution by the
peOpl 10 carry out Tie VIII ol Tie peO-
pie.
1t is an expression of respect for the
letter and spirit of civil service reform,
which forbids campaign asses sments
upon ofi~ceholders.
1t is a practical application of that
sense of justice which favOrS uniform
legislation for all men and all interests.
1t is the unselfish Offering OF those
whose chief object is the welfare Of
their fellow citizens, in whatever state
they may reside.
1t is gathered in the broad light of
day to be disbursed before the eyes of
the public i'll legitimate ways for an
honest purpose. @
1t is a novelty in politics which will
elevate. not degrade, it. -.
1t meets a new situation with a new
idea.
1t adds a potent factor to the resources
upon which the people must rely for
protection against the ever-increaSing
influence of allied monopoly and office
holding. eis!"ii
Its full success will mean the triumph
of Democratic principles in November.
1t is within the power of every Demo-
