'TISN'T WHAT YOU Do.

He STILL rs .opEs.

1t is we'll understood among those
who keep posted that Mayor Wright
hopes and expects to be the next Re-
publican nominee for mayor.
His friends and his organ are con-
stantly decryIng and backbiting all
other parties named. apparently with
view OF creating sentiment that he
must be recalled from his retirement
and again become Gin his own eStima
tom the saviour of the city.
Viewed purely as a political question,
the GLOBE would be glad to see Mr..
Wright the Republican nominee. 1t
would make the Democrats absolutely
certain OF success almost without effort.
But i'll our local affairs there should
be something higher considered than Il
mere party triumph. Every good citi-
zen wishes TO see an orderly and eco
nOmically conducted municipality. He
wishes To see the laws enforced aud the
community protected in accordance with
the sworn duty of the chief executive.
When man has failed, ignomini0us.
ly failed, to discharge these duties he
should not receive the approval of a re-
nomination. even though his defeat is
assured in advance. as it would be in
the case under consideration.
The question of political triumph in
a local election is not near as important
as the question of good government.
Every property owner, every man who
has little home, every one who feels
the slightest pride and interest in the
city desires to see a good local govern
ment. regardless of the party label which
may be attached to the administration.
If the present administration had pos
SesSed the slightest Scintilla of WORTH
ness, no one would have been more
pleased to have given it the proper
credit than the GLOBE. 1t is not
pleasure to be constantly holding up to
view the shameless dereliction of an
official, but it is a public duty which
newspaper owes to its constituency.
That the Democrats Will elect the
next mayor of St. Paul is as reasonably
certain as any future event, no matter
whom the Republicans may select to
lead them. The Republican defeat will
simply be more overwhel ming with Mr..
Wright as their standard bearer than if
some one else were chosen.
His selection by the Repu bicans to
again lead them will. however. be an III
dorsement by his party of his malad-
ministration, without any hope of polit-
ical gain.

Two Armenians.
WAsHIN GToN, Feb. 1O.-The reported
action of Minister Terrell in d demanding
the release of two Armenians impris-
oned by the Turkish government does
not surprise the state department. AS
it is expressed there: 1.-THE Armenian
question we have always with us.''
They have. however, no information
OF any threat by Terrell to send for an
ironclad. The Armenians in the United
States recently have been conducting
an organized agitation for the protec-
ton OF naturalized American Ar
menians from the eXactions of
the Turkish government There
are Urge number of these cases
before the state department and there is
more than mere suspicion in some of
them that there is abuse of the priyi-
ieges OF American citizenship. The
indications are that some of these men
came over here simply to secure citizen
ship. and then go back and live in Tur-
key with the purpose of securing pro-
lection from the United States govern
ment. This is accorded them on being
demanded. The Turkish government
does not recognize the expatriation of
Its subjects, but keeps those who claim
American citizenship in prison until
they can be depOrted.

deputies today NJ. Cesimlr-Perier. the
premier. made long statement in re-
gard to the disaster OF the column COM
manded by Col. BONNER, near Tim.
buctoo
The premier said that the government
had nothing to conceal. and that it did
not desire to minimize the gravity of the
situation; but this was not the moment,
he added, to inquire whether there had
been any act of excessive imprudence.
On learning that Timbuctoo had been
occupied by the French troops. the gov
eminent telegraphed to Col. BONNER to
return TO France as soon as the circum-
stances permitted. In the meanwhile
they cOunSeied Col. B onnier not to I'M
dertake any fresh act Of aggression,
and suggested that all possible pruden-
tial measures be taken.
The premier remarked that after hav-
ing read the official dispatch from the
governor of the Soudan, he did not
know whether the French officers were
dead or whether they were only miss
ing. But instructions had been sent to
the governor of the Soudan and to other
governors with the result that reinforce
ments were on their way from Algeria
and from other places, and it was
expected that the French force at Tim
buctoo would soon he relieved. But
there could be no question of'evacuatlng
Timbuctoo. The incident. he added,
conveyed lesson to France, and she
would not forget that the necessary
measures should be taken to prevent
its recurrence. eve are convinced"
the premier finally remarked, "that the
chamber does not desire to discuss the
merits OF the case at the present mo-
ment."
The interpeilators agreed to postpone
any further discussion of the Tlmbuctoo
question, and the chamber of deputies
adjourned.

change that Ed Partridge has cleared

by selling the market 'sshort." The
bulk of his operations has has been in
wheat. Partridge appeared as "bear"
when wheat was in the 70s, and it is
stated has been steadily increasing his
bank account as the market declined to
the present place near 6Oc. He is now
said to have practically closed his
trades.
NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-The. Evening
Post says: Wheat was demoralized to-
day under renewed liquidation. Infiu-
epces generally were of the most dis
couraging character. The Chicago pri-
vate wires brought bearisf news. The
fact that the Argentine was raising
goodly crops of wheat was offered as if
new factor. The flour trade was re-
ported as even more demoralZed than
wheat. Weather and crop conditions
were favorable, with snow storms in the
winter wheat regions. Confidence was
wholly lacking, and in the flood of sell
ing which swept prices down to lower
levels, and practically without reactions,
panic conditions prevailed. Foreign
markets, per private advices. were CON-
parativeiy steady in view of our home
situation. The readiness to buy on
these declining markets is hopeful
sign.
MONTREAL. Que, Feb 1O.-There
was great excitement around the board
of trade and stock broking circles today.
for which the extraordinarily low price
of wheat was responsible. Many Mont
realers have suffered heavy losses by
the continued decline in wheat. Sew
eral instances are mentioned of holders
of wheat in Montreal having been COM
PEELED to sell not only local stocks which
they were carrying. but also their real
estate. to meet losses in Chicago. Some
of the local brokers pitched thousands
OF bushels OH the market today, and
today are clearing their offices Of every
buShel of the stuff. Of course, this was
done at heavy loss in every case to their
customers. Some say that large num-
Der of stop orders" having been
caught at go cents, that it would just
be like Chicago to put the price up now.
