sistant postmaster general is being
quoted. 1t seems that it had become
necessary to lease a new building for
the postoffice at Bloomington. ILL.,. Mr..
STEvENsoN's home. 1t was desired by
many citizens of Bloomington that
building owned by the STEVENSON
family should be selected, and to them
Mr.. STEVENSON wrote as follows:
Inasmuch as a number of gentlemen for
whom maintain high regard have written
me suggesting the removal. I should be glad
to.havs them know my views upon the sub
ject Stevenson block is owned by members
of my own family, which fact while sus
tain my present position, wholly excludes it
from consideration as location for post
office. The exercise OF official power to pro-
mote the pecuniary interest of ones self or
friends cannot in my judgment, under any
possible circumstance, be justified.
Here is testimony which should win
the esteem of every honest man for the
DemOcracy'S vice presidential candi-
date. TO him, as to GROVER CLEvE-
LAND, public Office is a public trust"
and not under any circumstances to be
used ito promote the pecuniary interest
of ones self or friends" They are
worthy of each other, these two first
choices of the national Democracy, and
that means that they are worthy of the
support of every honest man and every
partisan of official purity.

A Reward of Service.

New York World.
President Harrison's appointment of
Watson X. Sperry as envoy eXtraordi-
nary and minister plenipotentiary to
Persia and consul general at Teheran is
most fitting.
Mr. Sperry is the editor of the Re-
publican organ at Wilmington. Not
many years ago be expressed very
strong convictions in favor of free
trade. Later he received what the New
England brethren designate as "call"
to preach protection in the columns
of Delaware journal. The field was
not promising. but the call was too
pressing and attractive to pass UNI
needed.
From that day until this he has per-
formed his duty without fiinching. He
has asserted religiously and almost
hourly in his various editions that tax
ing goods makes them cheap, that for
eigners really pay taxes anyhow, and
that capital desires more protection for
the sole purpose of enrichlng labor.
Like zeal under like circumstances is
seldom seen, and we are pleased to be-
lieve that the president appreciated the
sacrifice of conviction no less than the
fact that Delaware cannot possibly be
won and that consequently Mr.. Sperry
can be spared.

THE CONGRESSIONAL OMINA-
TIONS

The congressional nominations IN this
state, as far as they have been made,
are of very respectable character. and
If the present standard is maintained by
the conventions yet to be held, Mime
sofa will be satisfactorily represented
i'll the next house no matter which
party prevails. Mr.. TAwNEY, whom
the Republicans have named in the
First district, Is an earnest young man
OF good ability and vigorous though
not particularly interesting speaker.
No one knows very much about Prof.
MCCLEARY, who aspires to succeed
MIR. LIND, but such reports as there are
are in his favor. Mr.. HEATwoLE is
clever, handsome and honorable gentle
man, widely known and everywhere
popular. Mr.. FLETCHER has had a
wide experience in affairs, and if elected
will prove an Influential member.
Judge SEARLE is surrendering a very
satisfactory seat on the district bench to
compete for the prize in the Sixth
district. He has had remarkably good
record, is judge, and understands
thoroughly the needs of the section in
the Republican nominee has not yet
been selected, but should Mr.. ROGERS
receive the honor, there will be no dis
position on the part of the Democrats
to speak slightingly of him on any
score.
Capt. HARRIEs will head our ticket
again in the First district, and ought to
be reelected, because he is capable,
genial, courageous and loyal to the i'll
terests of the state. Mr.. HAMMOND,
who is pitted against Prof. MCCLEARY.
is temporarily absent from the state.
He has gone East to get married, but
will return by the 1st of September. He
will take the stump, where he is said to
shine. The worlds prOverbial admira-
ton for lover should make his race
winning one. Mr.. HALL will be re-
turned again from the Third dis
trict. Much was expected of him
when he was first elected, and
he has not disappointed his
friends. His high qualities of brain
and character have been recognized by
his colleagues, and after another term
or two he will undoubtedly come To- be
leader in the house. From our own
district either Capt. CASTLE or a st.
Paul man will be chosen to head the
Democracy. The district is a very
doubtful one politically. The country
counties attached to Ramsey are strong
ly Republican, and it will require some
one who can roll UP majority of two
or three thousand in this city to come
out ahead. However this and other
questions still open are decided. the
situation will be gratifying one. We
shall have no one on the floor of congress
as prominent. to be sure, as was Judge
WILSON in the Fiftieth congress, or Mr..
CoMSTOCK in the Fifty-frSt, but they
will all, nevertheless, be good, clean,
honest men, who will reflect credit on
the commonwealth.

might be selected by the committee.
Hon. ii. X. Wells will be the next
Judge, however, as he will probably be
nominated by non-partiSan convention
to be held at Spring Valley tomorrow.
The Republican papers even in old Fill
more do not seem to be aole to quite
agree in regard to the unexpected out
come OF the convention. The Chatiield
Democrat. staunchly Republican, in
spite OF its name says:
c. M. Lowell. Esq, representing the almost
unanimous sentiment of the Republicans of
this section of Fillmore county, refused to
abide by the bargain and sale of a few politi.
cal bosses, and cast his vote at the judicial
convention held at Austin last Tuesday for
Judge John q. Farmer. The result was that
James O'Bren was defeated and Judge
Farmer nominated.
Ihe LaneSbOrO journal is much
worked up over the matter,and declares
that the defeat of Judge O'Brien was
caused by the railroads, who desire
Judge Whytock. Col Wallis broadside
follows:
the result of the judicial convention at
Austlh was disgrace to Fillmore county. in
that one OF It's delegates basely betrayed the
power that created him an instrument of the
Austln convention. 1twas the instruction of

republican county convention, that the dele

IN NEW YORK.

At both the Minneapolis and Chicago
conventions the Empire state delega-
tons had their presidential preferences
set aside. The leaders of those delega-
tons fought hard fight against BEN
LAND respectively. At the close of
each convention it was widely predicted
that "New York would knife the nomi-
nee" PLATT. HIsCOCK and FAssETT
went home from Minneapolis full of
wrath and yexation of spirit, while the
Tammany tiger was iii anything but a
pleasant mood when it got back from
Chicago.
But several weeks have elapsed, and
already the signs of party disaffection
in New York are disappearing. HIS
COCK and FAssETT have bravely
downed their crow and declared for the
ice-wagon ticket. PLATT is still sulk-
ing in his tent (as indicated in an inter-
view telegraphed to yesterdays GLoBE),
but it is apparent that he is merely
holding out for better terms of sur
render, and undoubtedly before many
days he will experience complete
change of heart. On the Democratic
side the ratification of the conventions
choice has been much more cordial and
complete. Tammany has been COM
pletely won over, partly through its
own intense Democracy and partly
through the tactful Intervention of
WILLIAM L. WHITNEY. RICHARD
CROKER almost at once after his arrival
in New York from Chicago declared for
GROVER CLEVELAND i'll no uncertain
way and gave his pledge that Tammany
would give to CLEVELAND the same
hearty support it would have given to
HILL. The other Tammany leaders ex-
pressed themselves similarly, including
BoURKE COCHRAN, :"hO presented
DAVID B. HILLS name to the Chicago
convention. In his latest declaration
Mr.. COCHRAN SAYS: 81 have no heSita-
ton in expressing my firm conviction
that the nomination of Mr.. CLEVELAND
has been received throughout the state
in spirit of entire loyalty. The whole
party, without a single dissent. has in
dorsed the nomination, and we who OPP
posed it in the convention are deter
iilleu 10 lduOI Will especial 'lSOi u
achieve success at the polls. feel alb
soutely confident that the state of New
York will show better results on cleo
ton day than any other of the doubtful
states"
The upshot of it all is that there will
be very little, if any, disaffection in
New York in either party. REID will
lose the Republican ticket many votes
on account of his opposition to organ
lied labor, but aside from this the per-
sonalities of the respective candidates
will not arouse antagonism within
their own party ranks. Party lines will
be closely drawn, and the fight will be a
fair aud square battle of principles.
in such fight the Democracy has
never yet failed to carry New York. and
it will not fail this time.

MIR. LowRY's PROPOSITION.

The st. Paul public, and the members
of the city council, who are the official
representatives of this public, should
carefully examine and consider the
proposition in all its branches and in all
its bearings which Mr.. LOWRY has sub
mitted to the councils committee. And
in this consideration all the rights,
privileges and franchises which this
city has heretofore granted to Mr..
Lowry should be carefully weighed on
the one hand; and all that Mr.. LOWRY
has done in giving to this city system
of cable and electric railways should, on
the other hand, be properly credited to
him.
1t is to be borne in mind that Mr..
LOWRY has received from the city
franchise of immense value. In re-
turn, Mr.. LOWRY is to be credited with
having given this city, for his own
profit, magnificent system Of street
transportation-not perfect system. it
is true. but one much above the aver
age. He has but served his own finan
cial interests in doing this.
1t must further be borne in mind that
MI. LOWRY. Wnile All aple, DrO2u-
minded and enterprising man, is keen
and shrewd in driving bargain. He is
not going to operate poor street car
service in order to punish st. Paul be-
cause he does not happen to be a citizen
of this town; nor is he going to give MS
better system than he can afford
merely to gain the applause of this peo-
pie. In other words, Mr.. LOWRY pos
sesses good deal of human nature. He
has both the inclination and the ability
to drive a keen bargain, and unless
there are just as shrewd men OH the
side of the city, and men just as loyal
to the interests of the city as he is to
his own interests, he will get tue best
end of any bargain conducted between
them.
The situation should receive calm in
vestigation, the exercise Of sound judg-
ment. and an honest effort to protect
the interests of the city. Haste in az
irving at conclusions is not at all neces-
Sary.
