Il RIGHTEOUS VERDICT.

No event has occurred in long time as
suspicious for the future of St. Paul az the
verdict in the district court yesterday, rela-
tive to the award of damages to James Stin-
son for property condemned for railroad
purposes. The history of the case, in brief,
is that the Chicago, st. Paul & Minneapolis
railroad desired some property belonging to
Mr.. Stinson, located near the junction at
the st. Paul, Minneapolis &, Manitoba shops.
AS Mr.. Stinson's price was, as usual, extor-
tionste, the railroad company resorted to
legal measures to secure it. A suit for con-
demnation was begun, and Messrs. d
Day, William Lindeke, and Albert
Armstrong, were appointed CON-
mission to fix the value. The commission
proceeded to Investigate the matter, and
finally awarded Mr.. Stinson $S,3l2.25.
From the decision he appealed, and after
sharply contested suit, tho jury yesterday re-
turned verdict precisely the same az the
award given by the commission.
We believe this is the first time where an
appeal has been taken from the award of a
commission in this city, without securing
some advance at the hands of Jury. There
are generally such diverse views as to the valne
of real estate that out of the multiplicity of
counsels the juries have given the benefit of
the doubt to the property owner, concluding
that the railroad company should be mulcted
on general principles. -'
The verdict in this case shows healthier
public sentiment and an evident determine
ton to look at matters from rational stand
point. The disgusting greed of Mr.. Stinson
overreached itself and undoubtedly aided
in securing the excellent verdict. He had

MR. HUNTINGTON president of the Contra
Pacific railroad, has paid 100000 on ao-'
count of the indebtedness of that road to
the government, into the treasury. He pays
it under protest, however, and it is said in
du|ges in the hope that Congress may yet
realize the unjustness and illegality of the
statute establishing the Pacific railroad
sinking fund, and repeal the same. he also
intimates that another test case may be made
for the purpose of obtaining hearing be-
fore the supreme court of the United States,
and secure, if possible, reversal of the de-.
oision affirming the constitutionality of the
act In question. We fear his hopes are des-
tined to prove delusive, for the position of
Congress and of the supreme court is SO
manifestly proper and just that to reverse
either would be glaring indignity upon
the people.

Mr. Stinson Is the representative of few
men who have been curse to St. Paul.
Their investments have been a mill stone
about the neck Of the city, and the sooner
all of them can be driven from the city, the
better for St. Paul. This city would,
to day, contain over $4,000 popula-
ton, and, perhaps, 100000 il
these land sharks had not driven
railroad and other enterprises from the city
by their attempted extortions which were
little less than highway robbery. The Mil
waukee & st. Paul road was driven away
from this city with their headquarters owing
to this greedy policy of land sharks. Here
tofore they have been able to find juries whe
Willingly or unwittingly have encouraged
their plundering prices, until it was almos
hopeless to expect to establish any new enter
prise. 1t Was high time to create a publi,
sentiment which would drive these fellow
from our midst, and We are hopeful that tina
point has been reached. They allow other,
to enrich them by improvements, while the,
| stand as stumbling block, neither improv
ing or placing a valuation upon their property
which will enable others to improve. If tn.
property of such men could be confiscatei
| and devoted to the public good, it would no
compensate for the damage they have alread,
| done the city. If divine or some othe,
Providence had summoned the mon of tbi,
| ik to (supposed) better world before the,
ever saw st. Paul, it would have been ,
happy circumstance.
We have now reached the pass when NJ
more triaiHg can be allowed. We must rid
over and crush out such obstacles to ou7
| prosperity as James Stinson, and if we cal
drive the entire brood, Of which he Is rep
| resentative, from our midst, it would b,
equivalent to adding $4,000 population dur
ing the next five years. ..
We trust the next jury which sits in iudg
ment on similar case will reduce the aware
to nothing. Let these sharks be laugh
that appeals to juries are dangerous.

This result was brought about through the
