A SACRED DUTY.

Apropos of the meeting of the Loyal
Legion in this city the past week, some
thoughts as to the lessons such gather
ings teach our youth MAY not be amiSs.
In those dim and distant days "before
the war;" no sight brought such feel
ingS of reverential awe to the hearts of
the children as that of the few survivors
of the war of independence, or
of more numerous survivors of
that of 1912. No Fourth of July parade
was complete without these honored
guests. In fact, no public occasion was
thought to be correctly managed if
those good gray heads were not proper
ly invited and escorted to the high seat
in whatever council happened to be in
order The sight of the numbering can
non, with the clumsy harness by which
the heavy horses were tackled to the
wagons, the picturesque uniform that
transformed we'll known neighbor boys
into natty soldiers, who sat upright
with folded arms in unsmiling
dignity on the ammunition wagons
that Numbered along in the wake of the
cannons on parade. were not so
much objects of admiration as those
war-broken old men whom we were
told, again and again, 1.-The nation de-
lighted to homer" They were an ever
recIrrent object lesson of patriotism
and national pride to our childish minds.
Not more impressive were the lessons
taught to the boys and girls of those
days in the talks about the doorstep in
the dusky summer twilight after train
ing day or Fourth of July was over,
from father and mother, than the sight
of those stately old men. They were
to us what these men Of the Loyal
Legion or the q. A. r. should be
to our children and children's children.
But will it be so? The matter rests with
us. We who can recall as if it we're an
event of yesterday the rush to arms at
the first note of warning that the coun-
try was in danger should make it a
question of honor that these mems
names should be known to our children
as names to be revered and kept ever
green. We complain often that the
young people of today are lacking in
reverence. Whose fault is that? Can
you not remember the thrill of horror
with which you heard for the
first time the father of his coun-
try denominated &c. WASHINGTON"
by an irreverent Youngster. but if you
had heard the associates of your youth
speak of him in that way you would
have felt no such shock. The memory
of that serene face, the courage and
dignity of every pose of the body, the
steadfast outlook from the stern eyes
that looked at US from almost every
homestead wall in those days, was
greater factor in molding the soldiers of
the late war than any unthinkng person
could believe. Who would dare to be
recreant to the trust he left in our
hands while that memory held its place?
We have works of art on every hand
now, but not SO much those that teach
patriotism as those that teach the love
of the beautiful; but we can still talk,
and should make it our business to teach
this sacred lesson by actions and word
and pen.

CHICAGO EXCURSIONS

All the great lines of railway leading
from the East to Chicago, and all the
Southwestern roads, have agreed to run
excursions to the Columbian exposition
at one fare for the round trip. None of
the Northwestern roads have been
heard from on the subject. It will be a
serious injury, both to the Twin Cities
and the worlds fair, if the st. Paul
lines do not make the low excur-
sion rate announced by the other
roads. The time is nearly at hand
when Eastern people and Euro
peanS will come to the fair in
great numbers. The most of the very
wealthy ones will, no doubt, visit st. Paul
and Minneapolis, let the railway fare
be what it may; but many thousands of
the people of moderate means will come
here if the excursion rate is made, and
not otherwise. 1t seems reasonable to
believe that not less than 100 heavy ex-
cursion trains could be run from Chica-
go to st. Paul, and that quite rs many
could be run the other way during the
season, if the rate were made one fare
for the round trip. Northwestern peo-
pie would themselves make vigorous eff
forts to get up excursions, and Eastern
people would club together in Chicago

MORE MENACEs THAN ONE

N1OlGF II vi ASESo YIN ~.
President CLEVELAND is catching
it'' from the Republican papers, Just as
he might have expected to. for letting
slip that remark about the financial Sit
uation being 1.-THE only menace to the
prosperity of the country" The GLOBE
believed, and yet believes that the
serious menace to the prosperity of the
country is the continuance of policy
which takes the money from the many
and transfers it without compensa-
tion or consideration to the pock-
cts of the few. The GLOBE believes
that the main difficulty with this coun-
try is not the want of money, but the
interferences with its distribution.
When money eirculates among the peo-
pie in accordance with the natural laws
of trade, unobstructed in its flow by
artificial contrivance, its distribution Is
general and proportionate to service
rendered. DISTINCTIONS diverting it
produce congestion; too much at places,
too little at others. Any tariff law does
this, and protective tariffs only increase
it. Trusts and combinations of indus
trial enterprise have the same tendency
to derange the natural distribution of
money. EXtravagant expenditures by
the governmentaIe another cause. One
third of the entire circulating medium
of the country is taken from the clreu-
lation for greater or shorter periods by
the appropriations of our modern bill
ion-dOllar congresses each year.
1t is not the purchase of S5O, O,OOO. 900
worth of silver metal each year which
is disturbing the finances. This coun-
try is big enough and rich enough to
waste that amount of money and hardly
feel it. A nation that wastes ten times
that amount IN liquor annually can
stand the silver waste without danger.
That is no reason or excuse tor the
waste. The SHERMAN law should be
repealed, and congress cannot be called
together too soon to DO it. 1t is as vi.
cious and unprincipled piece of legis-
lation as was ever enacted. Free coin
age, which it was passed to avoid, would
St. Paul daily globe., 1893-06-11

coined would have been self-redeeming.
The effect would have brought the
country, or congress, rather, to its
senses, and the following session would
have repealed the act. The SHERMAN
act menaces prosperity, but it is not the
only menace.
THE GLOBES FARGO FUND.
The GLOBE has opened fund for the
relief of the Fargo fire sufferers, and in
vites contributions by the public. Fargo
is one of the largest of st. Paul's tribu-
tary cities; its retailers are among the
heaviest patrons of st. Paul's wholesale
houses. Its retail district is more than
half destroyed by the fire; the total loss
Of the cOntlagration is more than S3,00O,-
600, nearly 5000 people are left home
less, and, as reported, fully 5000 are
thrown out of business and employ
ment. Thc jobbers of st. Paul will not
be backward in the matter; they will
rally to man to the relief of the suf-
ferers.
The GLOBE fund affords an easy means
by which all who wish to make contrl-
buttons, no matter how large or small,
can forward to the sufferers without
risk of misapplication. Aid sent by
individuals direct to the city may or
may not reach the parties who will use
it as desired; many people realize this
fact. hence they will contribute only
through such an agency. The GLOBE
fund will enable all these people to
send their aid to the right parties and
where it will do the most good.
No one need entertain fear that
too much aid will be sent. The loss is
so great that with the greatest liberalitY
of the localities of the Northwest which
will contribute, very few of the suffer
ers will receive more than temporary
relief; not one will be placed in as
good circumstances as enjoyed be
fore the fire, and most of them will
only be kept from starvation until
they can find some means of earning
a livelihood. Many prosperous bust
ness men have lost their fortunes. Most
of these have sufficient credit to start
anew iii business, but they must have
something to supply their immediate
wants. The families that live by en-
ployment who are thrown out of home
and occupation are the greatest suffer
erS, being left without anything or
means of acquiring anything.
Help must come to these people with
out delay, and it is the belief of this
paper that the public will respond with
alacrity to the invitation to swell the
fund. Contributions should be left in
the counting room of the GLOBE, cor
ner of Fourth and Cedar streets. 1t is
expected that they will come in so rap
idly that daily remittanees can be made
to the relief committee of Fargo
