STEAM rs. W4TER-ST. PAUL As Il
MANUFACTURING POINT.
About year ago the GLOBE took Eocca-
sion to call attention to the fact that st. Paul
had equal facilities with Minneapolis for the
manufacture of lumber or flour OF any other
article. The statement was made that the
capacity of the water power
at the Falls was already
exhausted, and that they must look to steam
for their motive power in very short time.
When it came to the use of steam the
GLOBE claimed that st. Paul
surpassed any point in the State, be-
cause we can manufacture as cheaply as
elsewhere and our distributing facilities are
superior to all others in this region.
For the statement that the capacity of the
water at the falls was already used the
GLOBE was roundly denounced by the Min
neapolis evening papers and also by the
Minneapolis morning paper printed in st.
Paul. The GLOBE did not make the state
ment relative to the water power
out of any hostility to Minneapolis,
as was alleged, but because it was
fact which, while it was to
he regretted, nevertheless demonstrated that
steam must be the chief reliance of both
cities. After the lapse of year we find in
the Minneapolis morning paper of yesterday,
(Which Mr.. King prints in st. Paul. the fol-
lowing:
The time has come when thoughtful consid-
Grafton ought to be given to the subject of
| economizing our water power, for great as it
is, it is all needed, even noap. 1t is true that
during a portion of the year there is super
abundance of water, but during other portions
of the year the great grist-mills are compelled
to run on short allowance of water.
This might be considered as fully sustain
ing the GLOBE statement relative to the
quantity of water. Quoting further from
the same article We find this:
| The saw mills now operated by steam are less
expensive than those operated by water. There
are quite number in the city, and all are
| more cheaply run than those at the falls. It
| has long been noticed by those conversant with
! the two systems that Minneapolis lumbermen
| have struggle to compete with their down
| river Iowa rivals for the Iowa and Nebraska
| trade, simply because the Iowa mills run their
| lumber from the mill to the piling yard close
| by on hand carts pushed by men, saving load
| ing, hauling up hill and over many blocks and
| unloading. The mill refuse is more than am
pie to run the mills by steam.
This is an open confession that all we
| claimed for st. Paul as manufacturing
point was correct. There is no reason but
lack of enterprise or capital or both for st.
Paul remaining in the background in the
matter of manufacturing. 1t is the one
vital thing that is necessary to complete the
greatness of st. Paul

The negro exodus from the South to
Kansas still continues, but has been reduced
to something approaching a system. Most
of the negroes who leave their old homes
are said to be willing to work, but terribly
poor and improvident. Kansas people will
probably be saddled with their support for
several months to come.

FEW days ago Cyrus W. Field told the
country through an interview that he wished
to have no further relations with Mr.. Tilden,
either socially or in matters of business.
Now Mr.. Tilden tells Us that he don't care
tinker's adjective what Field thinks-that
Cyrus has been grouty ever since his return
from Europe, and is continually making en-
emies. The public care very little about the
private relations of these men to each other,
and if they will keep their quarrels to them
selves they will confer lasting favor on the
public.

TILDEN's MORNING RIDE.

Like Napoleon, He Is Said to LOoE; Best on
Horseback,
New York Star
Early risers in the neighborhood of Gram
mercy park (mainly, it must be confessed,
servant girls, milkmen, and divers of gro
GERS and butchers wagons) are blessed at
frequent intervals with view of Mr.. Samuel
J. Tllden. When at home, he generally SAL
lies forth for morning ride at $50. His
big bay horse, held by groom out of livery,
servant girls, milkmen, and early morning
tradesmen gaze with awe at the man who
so narrowly escaped being somebody in
the memorable contest of 1876. Not that
there is much to look at. A massive
head on crane like neck, an emaciated
body somewhat bent by age, and
possibly by the disproportionate weight of
the brain it has to carry, and pair Of legs
what can one say where there is SO little to
talk about. The face is combination of
force, cunning and cruelty. In public it
always wears smirk-those who wish to
curry favor with Mr.. Tildsn miscall it
smile but when, as happens in the early
morning, the hydra headed are not looking
on, this smirk is replaced by q look of calm
and thoughtful deiberation that gives the
face an appearance utterly foreign to its
company makeup. Mr.. Tilden's favorite
nag is not by any means prsnoer, nor is
he noted for speed. His gait is somewhat
between gentle trot and pace, and Mr.
Tilden sits him like an English fox-hunter.
While the venerable lawyer. yire-puller and
politician stoops and slightly drags his left
leg in walking, mounted he is as
erect as youth of eighteen,
and the plmerfection of his low
or extremeties is not perceived. A
military critic might find fault with the
heels, which were held inward, and the toes,
which were held outward, contrary to rule
hut the ordinary civilian would pronounce
Mr.. Tilden rather graceful horseman. His
usual rout is along Twentieth street to
Second avenue, down Second avenue to 4
Houston street, and return. In the after
noon he rides through Lexington, Madison,
and Fifth avenues into the Park, and inva-
riably dressesin black and wears stove
pipe hat. He always looks straight ahead
of him, and recognizes only those of his
friends who approach him very closely.
When he first began these rides, during the
late Presidential campaign, he WAS frequently
ssluted by the pedestrians on the walk, but
Of late he posses by with scarcely . recogni-
ton. Il this significant of anything?

AN1AstllinO Indian Legend Connected With

A1Nr1lLissO Indian Legend Connected With
That Lovely Sheet of Water.
Major T. M. Newson's Fireside Companion
There is something peculiarly fascinating
about an Indian tradition, handed down as
it is, not in books, but from father and son,
while smoking their pipes around the wig
wan fire; and there is something addition
ally charming in the story as told by the In
dian himself.
Some fifteen years ago, while on our way
to Vermillion lake with company of ex-
plorers, we camped on the banks of beau
tiful sheet of water some twenty miles from
the city of st. Paul, when our "Necarnis,'
or best friend-that is an Indian in the
party who had attached himself to our per-
sen-entertained us through our interpreter,
Porter, with the following intensely interest
ing legend:
"Many moons ago. said the Indian, with
Whit of his pipe, ga party of Sioux In
Me.de-wa-ka--now Lake COmo-and gazing
moment, disappeared in the thick UNDER
brush that encircled the lake. A young
Chippewa girl, beautiful as the fawn, with
features radiant with perfection, was sitting
upon the bank, toying with the gentle waves
as they came and kissed her tawny feet, but
when she saw these enemies of her race, she
screamed and ran to the tepee, which was
hotel now stands MINI pe-wa- pa, her broth
er-brave, gallant, affectionate- like deer
dashed from the wigwam. and catching his
sister in his arms, asked-sswhat fear?" He
leo pa pointed to the brush, and tremblingly
replied, ssSioux ~
The Indian was silent He gazed upon
the blazing fire; gave out glutteral sound,
and then whiting his pipe several times,
continued:
"Nim- e-wa-pa brave! Nim-pe-wa-pa no
fear Sioux Nim-pe. wa-pa's heart be big!''
Rousing the band the Chippewas were soon
in pursuit of the fleeing enemy, led by MINI
pe-wa-pa; but they had passed the boundary
line, and could only reach them by confront
ing the whole Sioux nation; so, chatting for
revenge, they returned to their camp on the
silent shore of Me-de-wa-ka!
It was night. The full orbed moon sent q
ray of mellow light down upon the beautiful
scene, while from all parts of the shores of
the lake numerous bands of Indians RECALLED
themselves, either reclining upon the messy
banks, or riding in their light canoes. The
prattle and laughter of childhood, the ring
ing notes of maidens, the plaintive songs Of
mothers, as they rocked their loved ones to
sleep, gave charm to the scene and pre-
sented picture unrivalled in beauty and in
innocence.
The stars stopped down and kissed the fair
maiden, He-le-o pa, as with soft tread and
light bound, she skipped among her COM
panions, the fairest of them all. With a
perfect figure; beautiful. soft black eye; jet
black hair, and clear complexion; with a
merry laugh, and heart warm and gener-
GUS in its impulses, no wonder she was the
queen of her sex and the loved of her tribe.
and still SO innocent, still SO lovely, still
80 charming"
