CONFEDERATE DEsERrERs.
The Proposition to Pension Them
Opposed in the House

WASHINGTON, April 24-Although this
was private bill day, under the rules, the
house decided to proceed with the Picker
pension bill, and the whole day was con-
sumed in the discussion of that measure.
The debate was generally devoid of interest
The feature was the opposition of Mr.. Con-
molly (Rep., Ill.) to the section Of the bill
which granted pensions to confederate SOL
diers who deserted and Joined the Union
ranks ninety days before Lees surrender. It
is not probable that a vote will be reached
before Monday. The evening was devoted to
private pension bills. as is usual on Friday.
Mr.. Connolly (Rep., Ill.) in his remarks on
the Pfckler bill supported 1t in the main. but
criticised the provision which would grant
pensions to deserters from the confederate
ranks. II declare" said he, that "a man
who cast his fortunes with the Confederacy
and remained there until he found the cause
failing and then deserted to Join the Union
army was. at least, a coward" (AppIause)
The section OF the bill to which he took ex-
ception would give pension to every man
who deserted from the Confederate army
ninety days before Lees surrender. Most of
them who deserted at the last moment. he
said, were either towards or in search of
rations. The other speakers were Messrs
Andrews fRep.. Neb.) Burton Rep., MOI
and overstreet Rep., Ind.), all in favor Of
the bill. The house non-concurred in the
senate amendments to the Indian bill and
agreed to conference.

THE CAMPAIGN GROWS.

Two incidents of the campaign last
night were indicative of the feeling OF
the people, and of the recklessness with
which approaching defeat has inspired
the Republican machine The Demo-
cratic rally in the Seventh ward sur
passed the most sanguine expectations.
Never has such a meeting been held in
that ward by the local Democracy, al
though only small part Of the SYM
pathizers with the Democratic cause
were there. There are hundreds of Re-
publican business men who have quiet
ly made UP their minds to vote for
Cullen and good government, but do
not care to announce the fact by at
tending public meeting. In addition
to this, the proofs furnished last night
of the strength Of the party organiZa-
tion there were gratifying. Every day
that gives more time to the citizen to
study his duty in the present emergen-
cy, and to contrast the consequences
of vote for the Republican and one
for the Democratic ticket, is adding
volume to the sentiment rolling up be-
hind the nominees of Democracy.
At a meeting held in another part
of the city, under Republican auspices,
the grossest falsehoods were uttered
against Mr.. Cullen, without a murmer
Of correction or reproof from the Re-
publican representatives present. Mr..
Cullen's record speaks for itself. There
IS no act in his public life of which he
has cause to be ashamed, and none
that was not for the best interests of
all the people Of this city, rich and poor
alike. But what shall we say, what
will the people say, Of a cause and q
campaign that circulates from the plat
form the basest and most unfounded
ISLANDERS? This performance has never
yet marked anything but the impotent
rage of a failing cause. The Repub-
lican campaigners have played all their
cards, and are dismayed to find that
the demand for an honest and inde-
pendent administration Of city affairs,
such as is guaranteed by the election
Of the Democratic ticket, is on the in
crease. Then they lose their balance,
and utter publicly the groundless cal
umnies with which they have been en-
deavoring assiduously to poison secret
ly the minds of the public. 1t is policy
that never yet has won with the Ameri-
can people, who love fair play and the
truth above everything else.

''Gresha ms law" is simply the for

to be law of human nature, the de-

GOODNESS BETWEEN FRIENDS.

While public attention is concen-
trated principally upon the political
happenings in this city. some interest
ing events are taking place in the
larger field. First among these is the
combination made in Hennepin county
between the friends Of Eustis, Lee and
Van SAINT against the supporters Of
Clough for governor. The three gentle
men first named are said to have held
meeting at which they agreed that
at the coming primaries they would
pool their issues. They are to run a
single ticket, with the three names at
the top. Each voter is to mark his
choice, and the delegates to the state
convention are to be apportioned
among the three according to their re-
spective strength at the primaries. This
is an ingenious plan, which will be a
beautiful speculation for that gentle
man whose friends shall have charge
Of counting the votes.
This adjustment, however, which is
but the plan Of one set of politicians
to down another set, is far less enter
tanning than the avowed motive which
lies behind it. The Minneapolis move
is ambitious. It aims at giving us an
entirely new Minnesota despotism. Here
is the way in which the MINNEAPOLIS
Journal, which vies with the Times in
playing the role of the irrepressible small
boy who lets out all the family Sc
crets, faunts its eXultation in the faces
Of the others: 1T will be noticed that
this is not merely an anti-Clough move
ment, but it is larger proposition:
that 1T is aimed directly against the
Republican machine, of which William
r. Merriam is the boss. The fact that
Clough happens to be the representa-
tive head Of the Merriam machine is
merely incidental. The contest
is between Merriam's methods Of poll
tics-the subordination Of the will of
the people to the rule Of a political
ring-and the popular will" The Jour
nal says further that Gov. Merriam is
entirely too ambitious; that he aims at
distributing the federal patronage in
case Of McKinley's election, as well as
selecting state officials; and that it pro-
poses to 'wrest from him the control
Of the politics of the state"
These be great, swelling words to ut
ter against the gentleman who owned
and controlled the recent Republican
delegate convention, and whose grip
upon the party does not show any signs
of weakening. They are, moreover. of
the kind that produces a coolness be-
tween friends. The people Of the state
will be indebted to the Republicans.
however, for glimpse into their secret
councils; into the selfish planning for
favors and privileges and offices be-
tween two factions, in which the public
interest is the last thing to be thought
of. This chasm will not grow any mar
rover, because both wings are deter
mined and have much at stake. Their
long pickering is now an
preaching a state of open war. and
gives signs that the Democracy of Min
nesota, If it is wise and willing to do
its duty, will not have to wait too long
for its opportunity

day or Saturday Of next week to place
their names upon the poll lists. Once
more we repeat that this Is not the
case. This is the last chance. 1t is
today or never. The polling places
are open from this morning until
voters names. When the books are
closed this evening it will be final.
No man whose name has not been
entered can vote at the city cleo
ton.
1t is of vital Importance to the in
terests Of good government that ev-
cry citizen of st. Paul cast q ballot
on the 9th of May for the men who
represent the true interests Of this
city. No man will have a right to
complain Of mistakes or abuses here
after If he has not taken this slight
trouble to prevent them. No man
is worthy Of citizenship if he does not
care enough about the fate of the
community and the direction of it's
affairs to go to the polls. There ARE
thousands of men In st. Paul who, If
not stirred up to their duty today,
will be lamenting in the next ten days
the carelessness or blunder that ex-
cludes them from the suffrage.
Let nothing be left undone today
to rouse these people to their duty
Let every man do some campaign
work among his neighbors and ac-
quaintances. Let the stereotyped
greeting which one man offers to an
other as he meets him on the side
walk or on the street be care you
registered?" Let that question sound
from one end Of st. Paul to the other,
and every non-registered voter be
urged to go to the polling places
while they are still open. The issues
are momentous and the emergency is
great. If you have not registered, do
1t today. If you have, do not feel that
you have performed your duty unless
you have seen to it that some other
man registers today.
St. Paul daily globe., 1896-04-25
THE LAST DAY.

We remind the voters Of st. Paul
once more that this Is the last day OF
registration. Every effort has been
made thus far to get the voters out
and with fair success. But there
still remains a large balance of work
to be done. There are from 10. 900 TO
$4,000 legal voters in st. Paul whose
names are not yet on the rolls They
are men whose attention, for one
reason or another, has not been d.
rected to the necessity of registration.
or who have put it off from time to
time owing to press of other busi-
ness. There are good many, we be-
lieve, who are not even yet acquainted
with the change made IN the registra-
ton law, and who think that there

"Greshams s law is this disposition ap-
piled to coins If there were no legal
tender to oblige a creditor to take
the less valuable coin, 1t would be
accepted, If at all, at its bullion value.
Men would still retain the coin of
greater value and pay out that of
less, but neither would be expelled
from circulation. That happens when
legal tender act forces their equal
acceptance. Their exchange value or
purchasing power would be in proper
tion to the value attached to them. We
use the word value" in it's common
and not in it's technical sense.
