TEMPERANCE LEGISLATION.

That the liquor question is rapidly
crowding its way to the front, no atten-
tive observer can deny. That mistakes
will not be made in even so good
cause as this, is too much to expect.
Timid politicians will retard its pro-
gress, and the combined liquor interest
will make desperate and prolonged re-
sistance but revolutions of this sort do
not 60 backward. Kansas has amend
ed her constitution so as to prohibit for
ever. under heavy penalties, the manu-
facture and sale of intoxicating liquors.
Wisconsin follows with her anti-treating
law. A recent statutory enactment of
North Carolina forbids net only the sale
but the manufacture or importation, of
liquors containing alcohol. This law is
made subject to ratification by popular
vote, and it is said to be favored by the
whites generally and by many of the
most intelligent colored people. South
Carolina has passed law forbidding
the sale of liquor except in corporate
towns and cities. where every dealer in
liquors must pay one hundred dollars to
the county for license, except in the
city of Charleston, where the license
must be two hundred dollars, and goes
to the city. The Nebraska legislature
has enacted license law which dis
eliminates between small hamlets and
villages and cities of more than one
thousand inhabitants, by placing the
license power in the former in the hands
of the county board, which in the cities
is vested in the city government. In
every case thirty treeholders must sign
the petition for license, and if objection
is raised, the objector is granted a hear
ing. Married women bring suit for
damages and for support of children in
jured by sale. The fee required of
sellers in villages of less than one thou
sand inhabitants is $500, and is of
course designed to be practically prohib-
itory, while the penalties for illegal
sale are extremely severe An act was
also passed prohibiting treating under
heavy penalties. The Delaware senate
has passed stringent prohibitory bill,
which is said to be likely to pass the
house, notwithstanding Senator Bayard's
remonstrance. In Illinois, Indiana,
Michigan, New Jersey, Texas and West
Virginia, liquor bills, prohibitory OF
local option, have been considered, but
failed of enactment.

The prohibition law in Kansas does
dot 60 into effect till May, yet in most
towns saloons are already closed, and it
is predicted that there will not be an
open bar in the State at the end of the
present month. The governor of the
State says that many of the saloon
keepers have removed to Missouri, "but
for every saloon-keeper that goes out of
Kansas on account of the prohibitory
law sufficient number of sober, indus
trious, energetic families come into the
State to build a school-house, and Kan
sas can always afford to trade our sa-
looms for school houses, and drunken
ness for sobriety."

BRING OUT THE VOTERS.

st. Paul is Democratic city and the
administration of public affairs by the
Democracy has been such that there is no
business reason for change. Republi-
cans testify that the credit OF the city is
'gilt edged owing to the prudence and
economy of the Democratic administra-
ton. There will be, nevertheless, on
Tuesday, an active effort on the part OF
the Republicans to gain a partisan
advantage. They are in power in
the State and nation and this gives
them the means to make vigorous local
campaign, where there is no real prospect
of success. There is only one true policy
for the Democracy to pursue, and that is
to bring out every Democratic vote. The
Republicans do not expect to carry the
city, but they hope to reduce the Demo-
cratic majority in order to have better
basis for future operations. 1t is not
enough to elect the Democratic ticket
simply, but it should be carried by rous-
ing majority. 1t is always good general
ship to thrash the enemy soundly, and the
Democrats should see that their laggard
and Indifferent voters are brought to the
polls on Tuesday.
Give the Democratic ticket q rousing
majority in the spring and you practical
ly win the fall campaign. Don't allow a
Democrat to miss his vote.

VOTE FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL

Next to keeping the administration Of
public affairs in St. Paul in the hands of
the Democrats, who have made the pub
lie credit "gilt edged" the most impor-
tant question on Tuesday is relative to
the erection of High school building.
This is neither partisan or sectarian
question. We have the school and should
take care of it. 1t is not the
question of the school but, the
question of giving it proper house room
which is at issue. The city is now
paving $4,000 rental for rooms, which all
the leading physicians in the city unite in
pronouncing death trap. If the build
ing is voted the annual expense of carry
ing the bonds will not exceed s., 500. Here
is $500 put IN the balance as against the
health and lives of hundreds of the youth,
the coming men and women, of the city
1t ought not to take great while to in
duce voter to vote 'syes'' on this ground
alone.
To keep this school in its present con-
ditien is relic of barbarism. We take
pride in our fine business blocks, we give
large bonuses to secure railroad shops
union depots, etc.; we do this to build up
the city, and make the investment be-

worse box when the polls close on Tues
day, and will, perhaps, be prepared to
admit that the elimination of the initial
letter of his name as proposed by the

In the upper district, comprising the
Third, Fourth and Sixth wards, Justice
E. H. Wood is the Democratic
nominee. He is lawyer,
who is thoroughly competent for the
position and will be Overwhelmingly
elected His opponent, MIR. W. D. Rog-
ers, merely runs as figure head, never
having had the slightest legal experience.
1t was kind in Rogers to enable the Re-
publicans to fill out their ticket with his
name, as no one who has any qualif1ca-
tions for the place would accept the for
lorn hope, and it was regarded just as
well to put on some one not versed in
law, as there was no danger Of his hav-
ing any law to administer. When some
State or national Office is to be given out

THE SCHOOL BOARD.

The Democratic nominees for the
school board are gentlemen who will dc
credit to the position In the Second
precinct of the First ward Capt. J. H
Reaney needs no introduction. He would
be credit to any position in the city and
when such man can be prevailed upon
to accept position in the school board
it is disgraceful to give him an opponent
The voters in that precinct should ask
themselves who his opponent is and the
manner of man he is. That is all. They
will not vote for him after they make the
inquiry.
In the Second precinct of the Second
ward Joseph Oppenheim is the man fol-
. the people to elect. He proved his ability
in the legislature and is an enterprising,
intelligent business man, who being in
debted to the public schools for his edu-
baton, knows how to appreciate and
foster them
In the Third ward, Second precinct,
Joseph Dreis, one of the best known
business men of the city, is the Democrat
ic nominee. He did not wish the nomi-
nation, but he will fill the place ad-
mirably.
In the Fourth Ward, Second precinct,
no better Nan could be named than Ed.
Rice, Jr. He served one term in the
school board and proved one of it's most
faithful and intelligent members.

the Sixth Ward, Mr.. Lienau, are with
out opposition. : Mr. Lienau is already

cause it pays. & The erection of High
school building will pay a higher rate for
the investment than any other of these
enterprises. 1t beauties the city,
gives educational facilities to the de-
serving youth ofthe city and enables us
to present the same opportunities offered
by rival cities. 1t is matter in which
an enterprising city like St. Paul cannot
afford to be eclipsed. The GLOBE be-
lieyes the manner of conducting the
school, the grade of scholarship, ETC.,
can be vastly improved, and when the
building is secured we give fair notice
that we shall not hesitate to
sharply insist upon several reforms.
But that is not the present issue. We are
aware that there is an honest opposition
to the High school in the abstract, and
we confess to having sympathy with it,
but under existing circumstances it would
be suicidal policy to attempt its destruc-
tion Our local interests, our financial
interests as city, and humanity, all
demand proper edifice for this in
stitution, and we trust there
will be a general endorsement of the pro
position at the polls on Tuesday. Neither
politics or religion should enter into this
question, but all citizens interested in the
welfare of the city should see that theil
ballots read "For the issue of High
School bonds-YES."
