The Glob e s original position in re-
lation to the Northern Securities company
has been indicated. It was insisted by
this newspaper in the beginning of the
agitation, and repeated at different times
since, that the place to try the merits OF
the case was in the courts and not in
the newspapers or on the political stump.
Gov Van SAINT and his journalistic fol-
lowing had another idea-the idea, OF
course, having for it's end the ADVANCE
ment. of the political fortunes of the
governor, and not the welfare of the
state.
1.-The court is the place to try the
case" insisted h Clio b e. And now
everybody comedies the good sense in the
suggestion, and the folly and harm of
any other course of action. 1t is prom
ised that before great while a suit will
be begun in the United States court for
the district of Minnesota, the decision
! of which will settle the status of the
| Northern Securities company. Il h e
GLOBE has no hesitapcy in saying that
the decision of the courts will be ac-
! cepted by the company in good faith, ano
| it's future wih be governed accordingly.
| The very inconspicuous part played by
the governor and his kitchen cabinet i'll
| the proceedings vindicate the attitude of
| Z e G o b e, when it declared that he
was Strutting before the people in the role
of trust-buster simply for his own profit,
| and for the satisfaction Of his inordinate
vanlry Also, the CO rse Of events shows
the contemplate part played by the news
papers which raised hullaballoo upon
the organization of the company-news-
papers which declared with ex cathedra
positiveness that the whole country would
go to the demnition bow-wows if the
company was not destroyed root and
branch, without reference to the effect
on the property rights of others, without
waiting for the courts to decide whether
it was a legal company or not, with the
most astonishing confidence in their own
infallibility, and with the most intense
zeal in the effort to do the bidding of the
envious $500 interests.
The courts will deal out justice to all
parties concerned, and The Globe,
which has never tried the case in it's
columns, will leave it to the regular in
stitutions in such cases made and pro-
vided.

in the house of commons, and in the pres
ence of perhaps the greatest concourse of
the most powerful elements of British po-
litical society that every gathered within
the walls of Westminster, expressed his
contemptuous disregard for British pub
lie opinion.
All political precedent will be contra
dicted if, with the government making
war on the present political league in
ireland, the cause which Rosebery has
seeded from his party to oppose, does
not reach a position of vantage which it
has not enjoyed since the days of Par
nell. 1t is not the Liberal party which
this politician has set himself in opposi-
ton to. 1t is the demand of an entire
race and nation, which has survived the
rise and fall of British ministers and
politicians for centuries, and which has
made and unmade British governments
before today 1t might well appear to
the observer as if it required politician
of tougher fiber than Rosebery has shown
himself to be composed of to build for
himself a future as the leader of a po-
rtical party with the one plank of oppo-
sition to the demand of justice to the
Irish people

THE LoCAE SIruArroN.

There are happy augurs of Democratic
victory in the coming city election. The
Democrats of St Paul will be found
working together and putting forth their
best efforts for the success of the ticket
to be selected at the primaries. This is
the year for a Democratic revival.
1t is fact known of all that Demo-
cratic administration of the affairs of
the city of st. Paul has always been
better than Republican. This is not an
eXtrayagant nor unconsidered statement
1t is truth, and the whole truth. Call
the roll of the administrations the citv
has had during the last twelve or four
teen years. and its truth will be an
parent. Name over, one by one, the Re
publican administrations and schedule
the good deeds and the evil deeds Justly
attributable to each. and one cannot but
acknowledge that failure and fraud and
corruption and ineff1eiency and wasteful-
ness have been the characteristics of
them ALL Several we'll meaning gentle
men of Republican proclivities have been
mayor, men of clean hands and the best
intentions. but they have fallen down.
one after the other, as chief executive
of the city.
The best way to judge of the future is
by the past. If Republican city admin
1strations have fallen down lamentablv
in the past there is no reason to EXPECT
any better outcome of another admins
tration by men of that party. There
may be new men, but it is the same
old party, and it's character is no more
changeable than the spots of the leopard
are changeable.
Therefore, there is a plain and impera-
tive duty ahead of the Democrats at the
coming primaries: Put none but good
men and true on the ticket, and the vic
tory is as certain as the counting of the
returns on election night To this end.
let there be full and fair and friendly
consideration of the claims of the various
men seeking nomination for the re-
speetive offices at the hands of the Dem
ocrats. Then let the primaries reflect the
free and impartial verdict Of the major
ity of Democrats. This done it will be
the duty and pleasure of every Democrat
worthy the name to take off his coat
and work like beaver for the success
of the ticket at the polls.

HE WAS TOO PARTICULAR.

A lighter. loaded to the gunwaie with
canned goods. tipped over the other day
when it was halfway across the North
river, New York. There is enough air
in an ordinary tin can to keep 1t ailoat,
and the wooden crates on some OF the
others kept them up. The people VINO
saw the accident from boats or from
shore looked on fndifferently but when
they saw that the tins fioated their at
titude changed very suddenly. Boats shot
out from the shore and from every near
by vessel, and began to gather dp the
Spoils just as the messenger boys and
gdmins of Broad street pounce on an
overturned push-cart. Many dinner
that night was improved by the addition
Of pineapple or ported ham.
AT last Just as the last OF the floating
daintieS were disappearing, the long.
black police tug appeared. When the boat
reached the scene of the catastrophe, lust
one man was on the spot. He had row
ed ali the way from shore IN the hope
of finding some black cherries. lie was
so absorbed he did not see the police
boat, and just as it overhauled him, he
had spied the label he wanted Put that
can back on the lighter" shouted the
sergeant. The poor fellow gave one look
and complied II only wanted one kind. r
he said as he r1wed ashore IF I'd grab
bed like the others did I'd have got q
balefui. Now I've got nothing That's
what comes of being an epicure. De

THOSE sAMlR ATROCITIES.

1t makes one sick at heart to read in
the news dispatches from Washington
that United States army officers in the
Philippines are to be tried by court-mar-
tiaI for torturing natives. We grew
righteously indignant at the barbarities
of WeyIer in Cuba and fairly ragged with
resentment when it was known that
Kitchener had established concentration
camps in South Africa-and now we are
to have a trial of our own officers for
flashing Filipino to a tree and going out
day after day and shooting him in non
vital place, prolonging his agony until
the horrible vegeance of the officer was
satiated.
Of such is war Sherman said most
justly that war is HE'LL and he might
have added that it makes of it's followers
devils Not all of them, Of course;
as not all of any other calling are either
good or bad. But that such atrocities as
are reported-and not denied-from Sa-
mar could be committed by men wearing
the livery of the United States is most
astounding.
All the myriad brood of evils which
come with and Immediately after war are
f1ocking around the operations of the
United States army in the Philippines.
Soon there will be in all the family of ma
tons not one we can consistently rebuke
for an example of atrocity on our part
equally shocking, can be pointed to by the
accused.
An accursed greed for territory is back
of it all-is back of the record of blood
and rapine and>tyranny made by England
in the conquest of unwilling peoples for
the purpose of spohation; is back of our
own policy in dealing with the Filipinos.
The ambition to be a world power has
driven our once beneficent government
| into the maelstrom of conquest; has
made US forget the immortal principles
| for which the fathers fought heroically
and won their independence. 1t has made
rs members of the brotherhood of rob
| Der nations, disregarding the rights Of
others unable to defend themselves with
| the sword.
| The last and most horrible development
of this Republican policy of conquest
| is the action of our officers in torturing
a helpless Filipino. God spare us from
| further of such instances.
