The Tramp Nuisance.

Thus early in the season, il has be.
come clearly apparent that this State
is TO become the promised land for
the professional tramp. The absence
of all necessary legislation against
these Inherent vagabOnds, is evident.
ly fully known to them, and the strin.
gent laws of all our more fortunate
neighboring States, simply conspire
TO drive the tramps TO us. In the alb
sence of any proper provision of law
for another season. it behooves us to
consider what measures of protection
we can have against them. Our legal
doors stand wide open 10 them, and
the professional tramps will be upon
us, and indeed, are now here. Cities
and towns can take care of themselves
better than the unprotected farmers.
II may be necessary to organize a
kind of vigilant committee system,
in the rural districts, to guard them
against a growing evil and against
violence itself. Each town might
organize to take care Of itself. The
tramp evil threatens lis in its greatest
magnitude all the summer through.

Hon. Edwin Bradley.

We regret 10 state that Mayor
Bradley authorizes us TO say that he
will not. under any circumstances, he
a candidate for Mayor. The conclu.
sion of Mr.. Bradley will be deeply
regretted by our best citizens. He
has given MS vigorous administra-
ton, and his vigilant and faithful ell.
forcement of the city ordinances. has
given universal satisfaction. Mr..
Bradley ranks among the best Mayors
the city has yet had, and his example
of resolute enforcement of existing
ordinances, is good example to those
who may come after him. The peo'
pie instinctively turn to a man who
has the courage TO do his duty. The
Mayor will retire with the good opin'
ion of his fellow citizens, and every
good citizen will regret that he de-
clines again to he candidate.

The State Convention.

Some of our Republican co-tem.
poraries are clamorous for State con-
vcntion, and are calling Capt. Blake
ly's attention to the matter. We are
very strongly disposed to approve Of
the wisdom of the committee in post.
poning the call to a late period. Min.
nesota Republicans desire the benefit
of the latest Developments and
knowledge OH the presidential ques.
ton. Had we had an early conven-
ton, the delegates would have been
elected and probably instructed be.
You'd recall, for Grant. Present eX.
perience would hardly justify the
State in the wisdom of such an act.
Time is healthy teacher on this grave
subject. The delay has already enabled
us to avoid one or two serious errors.
\ little longer delay can do no posi-
BILE harm, and may open our eyes 80
that we can see the pathway of duty
plainly. The danger lies in precipi,
tation, not in delay.

CITY Finances.

RiitOr Free Press:
AS shown by the annual report of
the financial condition of the city of
Mankato. rendered by the Recorder,
Diamond, the City Treasurer, Mr..
Isaac Marks, is charged with having
received from the County Treasurer
the amount of $40, 006.5S. Now the
County Commissioners report charges
Mr.. Marks with having received, up
to March LIST, 1880, the sum of $l5,-
1902. 10, and states that balance of
$3,SI8,Sl is standing to the credit of
the city March lst, 1880. AS the city
Recorders report ends March LIST, by
which time Mr.. Marks had also drawn
the above $3, 1851, it makes the TO-
tai receipts from the county Treasury
of $40, l2l 90, instead of SO ,006.58 as
per the Recorders report. What be-
came of the difference of sll5.02i AS
this item is only one-fourth of the
amount which said report charges
Mr.. Marks with having received for
the city, the query arises, is there pro-
portionally as much margin on the
other 500. 900. INQUIRER.

A Pertinent Inquiry.

Will the Democratic convention in
this city nominate such candidates as
will be free from personal objection,
and will they be representatives of
the business interests of Mankato
II 1t not "a foregone conclusion that
they have resolved TO nominate men
to whom there are now the most seri-
GUS objections We call public at
tention to the fact, that these candi.
dates are TO be nominated and voted
for, before any Republican journal
can call attention to their character
and fitness. This, we learn, was pur-
posely so arranged. Let every good
citizen scan closely the names upon
the ticket, and see if there are not
serious objections to some of them.

City Bookkeeping L.

We suppose that the object of keep
ing books for the city, was to show
the public the exact condition of their
finances. \ correspondent calls pub
lie attention to a marked discrepancy
in the figures of the city bOOk-kcep-
ing. In addition TO what our CORES
pondent says, we observe that the re-
eorder also credited the city with bal
ance on hand at the beginning Of the
year, of $024.2G as a disbursement.
when the city should be debited with
that amount, which correction will
throw the report out Of balance over
$4,000.

The Minneapolis Tribune of the
oath inst, contains the result of the
adjustment of negotiations between
the Milwaukee and st. Paul, and the
Narrow Guage railroad company. We
copy so much of its comments on the
arrangement as refers to the prospect
of line from this city TO Minneapo.
lis:
The first direct and practical result
of our activity with reference to the
narrOw-gaUges is the arrangement,
finally perfected last night, with the
Milwaukee 4 st. Paul company, by
which that company agree to bring
the Hastings l. Dakota road into the
city during the present year, and also
build branch line 10 Hutchinson.
BY the arrangement the city not only
secures the desired connection with
Hutchinson, along substantially the
line originally proposed, but it also
secures as feeder to this city a main
line of railway running across the
richest portion of the state TO its
western boundry, and which will ul.
timatcly place us in connection with
the most fertile portion of Dakota
and give us a short and direct line TO
the Missouri river valley and Black
Hills region. Nor is this all. A link
of road will shortly be built on the
north side of the Minnesota river
from Mankato TO a connection with
the Hastings & Dakota, probably at
Norwood, thus giving Minneapolis a
short line to Mankato and another
connection with the southern portion
of the State over what is known is
the Wells branch, already running
from Wells TO Mankato. 1t will, in
fact, practically bring the Southern
Minnesota road NOW owned by the
Milwaukee & st. PauD directly into
this city. All this has been accom-.
plished. AMI we still have our $3.50.
900 Of bonds intact to build roads in
other directions, if we see fit.
