but the fact is self-evident that without
the railroads there would be no freight to
transport. They have sometimes de.
manded exorbitant subsidies, but the in
creased value of property in the region
upon which they have entered has more
than compensated for the outlay. The
railroads are not the enemies of the peo-
pie, but their benefactors, and more es-
pecially are the agricultural classes in
debted to them for their present prosper
ity. They should be encouraged rather
than repressed, and though they are now
able to hoe their own row it will do no
community harm to extend to them
whatever assistance they may require.

FULFILLING THEIR DEsTINIEs.

The GLOBE reproduces this morning a
frank statement made by the Tribune of
Minneapolis, relative to the failure of that
city to become commercial metropolis.
1t is probable that the plain truth will
not please the people there, but it will be
the part of wisdom for them to recognize
the inevitable, and cheerfully accept the
situation.
With the aid supplied by the govern
ment, Minneapolis has secured splendid
water power which gives great manufac-
turing advantages. With this she should
be content. The frog was very good in
his way, but he could not make his
elastic sides swell to the proportions of an
OK and he exploded in the attempt.
There is no occasion for our Min
neapolis friends to become discouraged.
They are making of that city manufac-
turing town, as nature designed they
should The business center provided by
the same source is at st. Paul, and will
not only remain but continue to increase
as the years roll on.
The present so-called boom in st. Paul
is SIMPLY to meet the absolute demands
of business. 1t is questionable whether,
even with all that is being done, it is suf-
ficient to meet the demands, but business
palaces cannot spring like magic from
the earth. The manifest destiny is upon
st. Paul and she is marching on accord

Using human craniums for targets il

this is sport somewhat too rare for

the matter ended for the day. Yesterday
morning the parties again came in con-

vituperation. Brandt in stentorian tones
demanded a retraction. 1t was not forth

blows. The tailor had an elegant bay

And Makes a Successful Break for L b.
erty.
Nick Klinger, the notorious wife beater,
played one of his old lodges on the po-
lice yesterday, and succeeded in making
his escape just as the doors of the Jail
were about to close on him for three
months.
He was before the court last week on
the charge of disorderly, which consisted
in abusing his wife. When brought up
he promised to do better, and a sentence
of ninety days was RENTED during good
behavior.
Yesterday morning his wife complained
to Judge Burr that he was up to his old
tricks again, and Officer Lowell was mott
fed to run him in. He was found at his
residence on Exchange street and put
under arrest.
On the way to city hall he broke away
from the officer and ran out Exchange
street with the celebrity of creased light
ming Officer Lowell followed, but Nick
had the lead and didn't propose to give it
up The officer drew his gun and took a
wing shot at the fugitive, who only ran
the faster.
He got in the rear of some buildings,
and eluded detection. A GLOBE reporter
was informed last night that he had been
seen back of St. Joseph's hospital, limp
ing on one leg In this event, the ball
must have gene home.

THE RAILROADS.

No class of enterprises are watched
with amore jealous eye than the railroads.
A large portion Of the community seem
to regard the development of railroad en-
terprises as a direct menace to their indi-
vilual liberties-a scheme of legalized
highway robbery-and oppose every
N aSure intended to give them such priv
iiefes as their business may require. The
III lute a railroad corporation appears
before the Legislature of State asking
for the right Of way or for depot or
other privileges, men seem to lose their
mental balance and come to the conclu-
sion that there is gigantic steal on foot
and that 1t is their duty to Illustrate it.
They seem to forget that to the railroads
must be credited the extraordinary de-
velopment of the vast empire of the West
within the past twenty years Without
railroads the territory west of the great
lakes would be practically unkown-a
terra incognita.
Mr.. Edward Atkinson, one of the
ablest and most careful statis-
ticians in the country, has re-
Gently contributed valuable paper
to the Journal Of american agriculture.
From this paper it appears that in 1865
there were $4,000 miles of railway in the
United States. In 1865 we produced of
corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley and buck
wheat, /, 127, 499, 1877 bushels. In 1880 the
crop was 2,448, 079, ISL bushels, an in
crease of l, 520, SIS, 1894 bushels, while the
mileage Of railroads had increased to a
little more than eighty thousand miles.
The increase of production noted during
the fifteen years is somewhat less in pro-
portion than the increase in the railway
mileage. but if the business other than
agricultural was included, there is no
doubt but it would be found that the
country is developed nearly in the pro-
portion that railways are constructed.
In the West the people are almost. en-.
tirely dependent upon the railways. A
farm is valuable in proportion TO its
proximity to a railway station. The
crops raised within convenient reach of y
railway bring larger prices than those
raised on farms remote from such con-
veniences. Settlement is accelerated bv
the railroads, and vast spaces of TERRITORY
that are now fruitful, adding yearly their
golden contributions to the wealth of the
country, would be now but waste will
derneSs but for the construction of rail
roads. The time was when railroads waited
till the country was developed before ex-
tending their lines. The time has now
arrived in which the railroads have he
come the forerunners of settlement. They
choose their routes through fertile re-
gions, and emigration comes as a matter
of course
When the matter is considered in all
its bearings it is difficult to account for
the prejudice that seems to exist against
railroad companies 1t is true that occa-
slonally-though the instances are rare
they demand exorbitant rates of freight
