BUSINESS, NOT FUN.

The GLOBE hastens to assure its es-
teemed contemporary, the Tribune, that
the weather is altogether too eneryating
to warrant the expenditure of energy in
writing editorials merely for fun. 1t is
not at all in the pursuit of what our
neighbor calls ''vlrtuOus and innocent
amusement" that we have called the
attention of Gov. NELSON to the exist
ence of trusts and combinations in this
state, against whose existence and con-
tinuaDce the people, by their legisla-
ture, have entered decree, and to exc
cute which they placed This eXcellency,"
to borrow his secretary's phrase. in the
executive chair.
The GLOBE may be unsophisticated
and not learned in the horse play of
politicians, and it may be that the anti
trust law was enacted as bit of jocu-
larity which everybody, that is every
sophisticated body, knew to be meant
and taken as such; but we. as yet, be-
lieye that it was the crystallization of a
strong. earnest public sentiment of the
people and of those Who representing
the people. enacted it. The view taken
of it by our contemporary rather tends
to show that we are mistaken. and the
absence Of anything SO far to indicate
that Gov. NELSON intends to put the
law into operation and execution is an
additional reason for believing that the
law is considered only as joke, one of
those told with grave faces and getting
the greater part of its humor from its
gravity.
The GLOBE is painfully aware of the
existence of national trusts; most news
papers who buy paper and type get fire.
quent and sharp reminders OF that, and
when it becomes apparent that the at
torney general of the United States
ignores their existence and the law in
defiance Of which they operate, we will
prod him as sharply as we do Gov. MEL
SON. AT present the GLOBES advice is
that the attorney general is gathering
the data on which to base prosecutions,

German Strikers Summarily
Evicted by the Police.
BERLIN, June 13.-More riots are re-
ported from Fuenfkirchen. The cause
of the trouble Is that the military
and police are driving strikers ard
their families from the houses which
the men have rented from the colliery
owners. Although in most cases the
rents had been paid up to date, and in
many even for month to come. the
authorities served upon the strikers
notices to vacate the houses within
forty-eight hours. These notices
caused hostile demonstrations. which
were especially threatening in the colo
MES of the foreIgn-bOrn miners.
Most of the men who had paid rent reg
ularly refused to give up their houses
peacefully, and therefore were hunted
from their homes. Those who took
refuge with neighbors living in houses
owned by the companies we're driven
out into the fields, where they were
compelled to sleep, with their wives
and children, without covering or
shelter. Men who tried to return home
or offered resistance to the troops were
pursued by hussars. Some were ridden
down, others slasbed by swords.
Dozens of women and children have
been wounded in the encounters. The
ringleaders in the riots have been
| manacled and imprisoned.

WASHINGTON, June 49, Minnesota
and the two Dakotas have always been
very closely connected from business
standpoint, much more SO than either of
the two new states and any other COM
monwealth, and this relation will soon
be made closer by the national govern
ment. AT the present time North and
South Dakota and Nebraska are
punched to make one internal revenue
district, of which Col. j. L. North, OF
Nebraska, was yesterday appointed
collector. There has been considerable
talk regarding a division of this dis
trict. with view of making new
district of North and South Da-
kota, and the filing of an appliea-
tion for collector by S. Z. Shelton, of
Springfield, S. D., today started this
talk anew. But 10 new district will be
created, and it is likely that the Dakotas
will, in the course of few months, be
detached from Nebraska and added to
Minnesota. At the present time. owing
to big dlstilleries at Omaha, the reve-
nue. collected in the Nebraska-Dakota
district is nearly double the amount
collected in the Minnesota district. BY
this change the district will be equal
lied and the two new states added to
their natural ally. Col. Joseph E. Mil
ler, commissioner of internal revenue,
said today that tine matter was under
consideration, but the decision would
rest solely with the president.
With the exception of Senator Kyle,
all the South Dakota chieftains are in
the city in the interest of one or another
OF the candidates for United States
marshal. 1t is expected that the matter
will be settled i'll a day or two. Chair
man Peemiller, of Yankton, seems to be
out Of the race now, as we'll as Peter
COuchman, of Walworth county. Col.
Mark w. Sheafe. of Watertown, is in
the lead, but he has strong rivals in A.
Keller, of Kingsbury, and Harry Car
son, OF Sioux Falls.

A MAN who can soberly insist that a
tariff is not tax on the consumer, but
is paid by the foreigner to get his goods
into our market, is apt to be just as
loose in his other statements of facts. On
no other theory can it be understood
that Gov. MCKINLEY could have said
that the $4,000 lives lost on the battle
fields Of the Revolution did not equal
the number killed in a single battle in
the Rebellion. The Conrier-Journal
shows that the official reports give the
killed IN battle during the entire Re-
belllon as 67.05S, to which should be
added 43,0l2 who died of wounds re-
ceived in battle. But then every one
has come to understand that the COVER
nor is never to be taken seriously, but
only as gifted and versatile political
romaucer.

Speaking of ex-senator SabiD, he is
still about the best known Minnesotan
in " ashingtOn, and there is very gen.
eral impression that he is only waiting
for chance to lock horns with Senator
Washburn, and recapture his old seat in
the senate. There is no doubt at all that
the Saltwater man intends to leave no
stone unturned to effect the defeat of
the anti-option senator, whether it re-
suits in his own elevation or not. This
is certain. and it comes from close
friend of Senator Sabin, who knows
what he is talking about.

rHR BAN OF ourLAWRY

The old English common law con-
tanned a provision by which professional
criminals could be declared outlaws.
One so declared could claim no protec-
tion from the law; it was not crime
for any one to kill him on sight. 1t
might not be a bad idea for Missouri,
Kansas. California, and several other
Western states to place such law on
their statute books. The authorities of
California, after perlous chase and
encounter, in which one of the officers
was seriously wounded, captured EVANS
and SoNTAG, two of the most notorious
bandits of modern times. SoNTAG will
probably die from the wounds he re-
ceived in the encounter; but EVANS.
though seriously wounded, will prob
ably recover. If either recover, he will
be placed on trial, possibly for murder,
but more likely for some train robbery,
and his chances will be a hundred to one
he will escape with only term of years
in the penitentiary, and that he will be
at liberty inside of ten years to again
pursue the craft of a bandit. Had Cali

casses III some sand pit where the wild
animals could make further disposition
of them.
When the YOUNGER brothers were
captured, after their Northfeld raid of
1876, all three were supposed to be NOR

state freely that, had it been supposed
the. outlaws could recover. they would
never have had an opportunity to see
the Saltwater prison. Yet during the
past six years powerful influences have
been working to secure their pardon.
and many believe that before the next
six years roll round the survivors will
be released.
An sutlawry law is revolving to the
senses of most Americans; but several
quite eminent men contend that such
law would be the best practical means
of exterminating the many bands OF
desperadoes that are holding up trains
and terrorizing Western and Southwest
ern portions of the country. If these
villains knew that their capture meant
death, the majority of them would very
gladly retire from the business.

less hatchet could make all the blows
on the bodies; that one blow on Mrs.
Borden was made by person facing
her, and on cross-examination. that the
blood would naturally fall on the assail-
ant. There was'a striking and dramatic
Illustration a little later, when Mr..
Adams asked him to illustrate just how
the blow would have to be struck in
order to produce the cut found in the
skull of Mr.. Borden. Mr.. Adams stood
before the witness. who is tall,
spare and very deliberate in all his
movements. A new hatchet was held
aoft for a second, inclined to the left.
and then flashed through the air,
straight,as it seemed, toward the skull of
Mr.. Adams. When it seemed as if the
crash of bone must be heard the hatchet
stopped and remained steady. The
spectators gasped. A few minutes later
