The Globe editorial rooms. During the

THE BETHEL FIRE.
Four Lives Lost In the st. Paul
Holocaust.


Holocaust.
ST. PAUL, July 6.-The loss of life IN
the fire at the Bethel at the foot Of Sib-
ley street, was slightly exaggerated by
first reports. 1t is now believed only
three were killed and one probably
fatally injured. Seven others were
quite seriously hurt but will recover.
OF the three persons who met death
in the boat, only one had been identii
fed at 10 o'clock; that was
Mrs. Jennie Peak, matron of the boat.
The other two were men whose
names were unknown. Louise Morgan,
daughter of Rev. David Morgan, super
intendent Of the Bethel, was SO badly
burned that it is feared she will die.
She seems to have been completely en-
veIoped about the body, for she is badly
burned about the face, limbs and body.
She is now at ST. Lukes hospital, where
every thing possible is being done for
her. AT the city hospital are James
Shaughessy, who is bruised in the side
and slightly burned, Pat Ryan, whose
hands are badly burned, but whose in
juries are not serious, and Harvey
Thompson, who is slightly burned about
the thighs. Four others whose names
have not been learned, were also injured
but not fatally. The rumor that two
other bodies were in the hold of the boat
has not yet been verified.

GRAND Forks, II. D., July al

Barton of Ramsey county and Sheriff

citizens of that place. Most Of the citi-

CURED, were known TO be in pursuit
with the avowed determination of
lynching him. It is even rumored they
will undertake to secure special train
and follow him to this city, bat the
prisoner is now perfectly safe from at

from the Jail at Devils Lake, unknown
to the populace, and placed in q closed

Man, 20 minutes after Baumberger
was arrested by officers Of that place,
and left there with the prisoner Sunday
morning, never stopping until they
reached Devils Lake, distance Of
nearly 200 miles. during which they
changed teams four times. The mob
followed considerable portion Of the
distance. Baumberger is cool and ap-
parently unconscious. He refused to
give any reason for the crime, which he
readily admits, and says he fully ex-

Judging from the amount of ,dissension
among the Democrats about the Wilson
bill the Presidential dictator will soon
be under the necessity of issuing a ukase
on that subject. Some of the members
who come from districts where there are
large manufacturing interests are giving
utterance to sentiments that Mr.. sCleve-
land must consider little short of treas
enable. A suggestion that they.will not
get any offices may be sufficient to
bring the most of them to their senses,
but there are some probably whom Mr..
Cleveland will have to threaten with ex-
lie.

Mr.. Cleveland has issued orders to the

that his policy was a failure the resolu-
tion of endorsement will have to be con-
fined to an endorsement of his intentions.
Yet we venture to predict the endorse
ment will not go to the extent of trying
to carry them out.

that it will be reformed.

The State Grange still has the listing
system on the brain. and the Grand
Master tells them that he great princi-
pies of virtue, truth and equality will
never fully triumph until the assessors
are compelled to swear every body to pro-
duce an accurate list of all he owns for
the benefit of the taxgatherer. The
Grand Master apparently thinks that
when that hour arrives the millennium
will be upon US. 1t is notorious fact,
however, that the thing that the Grand
Master thinks will prove a panacea for
all the inequalities of taxation has been
tried great many times without pro-
ducing any very noticeable result excep;
to show that there are great many
men in the community who will wobble
from the truth, when such webbing is
rewarded as it is by this listing system
by relief from taxation. As for reliev-
ing the farmers and placing the burdens
upon tine jewellers in cities, which the
Grand Master appears to regard as one
of it's principal merits, experience has
shown that the result is just the oppo-

The smaller the place the larger
the percentage of property taxed.
Like the income tax this list
ing system is beautiful in theory,
but like that, it always fails to produce
results expected of it. There would be
no fairer assessment under it than
there is now, and we are inclined to
think that the farmers after submitting
one or two schedules of their property and
debts for their neighbors to gossip
about would be as sick of it as any body.
The Argus has furnished a bill of par
ticulars of the alleged shortcomings of
the fire department. since Mr.. Ball has
been in charge of it. 1t is quite
formidable in length. Mr.. Ball
changed some of Mr.. Norton Is
regulations relative to the exercising
of horses, precedence of officers of the de-
partment at fires, the color of the coats
of the engineers, the number of pounds
of steam engines should carry, and
the location of one of the en-
gines. The committee on fire depart
ments changed some Of the officers of
the department, thus disturbing the
civil service reform principle which
Mayor Ingraham, assisted by the Board
of Aldermen, introduced into the fire
department, liquor agency, police depart
ment and other public offices. Now all
these things are very wrong. Mr.. Nor
toms regulations must have been the
best possible because he was Democrat,
elected by the reform city council which
also elected the reform liquor agent. II
| clearly follows, therefore, that if Mr..
| Ball changed them the changes were
detrimental to the service. Mr.. Norton
being a Democrat, knew it all, and die
everything just exactly right. The
same line of reasoning condemns the
changes in the personnel of the depart
ment All the officers who were removed
had been elected by the reform Demo
cratic city council, and of course were
the best men possible to be had. Poll
tics did not in the least enter into theil
selection; nothing but merit pure and
simple. Accordingly when these mer
were removed of course the service wa!
injured. All of them had been appoint
ed on the high ground of merit; all o.
! them were removed because of "epitt
and politics" The Argus makes out 9
complete case. All the officers removed
were Democrats and therefore the bes
and most efficient men in the communi
ty. All their successors being Republi
cans, or at least elected by Republicans
of our contemporary is quite over
towering.

Six Democratic membe of the COM
mittee on banking voted for the uncon-
ditional repeal of the tax on State banks
and three Democratic members against
it The six are being condemned by
Northern Democratic and Mugwump
newspapers, while the three are applaud
ed. Yet the six were true to the man
date of the people and the three were
not. The Democratic national platform
recommended the repeal of the tax on
State banks, without any conditions
The people sustained that PLATFORM by
electing Grover Cleveand and a
majority of Democratic represen-
tatives. The mandate of the
people just as clearly commanded the
repeal as it enjoined a tariff for revenue
only. Had six Democratic mem beers OF
the Ways and Means committee voted
against reduction of the tariff they
would have been posted as traitors to
the party and to the people. Yet there
is just as much treachery in DESERVING
the platform in regard to State banks as
in regard to the tariff Then why not
commend the six who stood by the
bank tax recommendation and condemn
the three who deserted it?
