ROCHESTER, Sept. 5.-The following telegram
sent from the Rochester fair grounds yesterday,
is in answer to proposition from Mr. r. Judson
for the celebrated Minnesota stations, Silas
Wright, owned at Rochester by Simonds &
Clough, and Herod, owned at Preston by NJ T.
Grafton, to trot at Owatonna during the state
fair next week, for special purse of $500. The
famous record of :24H, made by Herod on We'd
nesday at Rochester, and the well known fact
that these two famous roadsters are very
evenly matched, will lend an unusual degree
OF interest to the this contest. The horses will
be driven al Owatonna as they were at Rochester
by their owners and it will be without doubt the
most exciting race ever trotted by Minnesota
horses. The drivers both pledge themselves to
drive to win, and those who know them and also
the fact that they rival horses will understand
that the race is for blood
ROCHESTER, MIMI, Sept Ar. C. Judson,

pledge ourselves to drive to win

That cause is not far to seek Anyone taking d
walk along the lake front and getting few shifts
OF the horrible odors arising from away above the
elevators along by the Duluth road freight house,
and so along south on the shore will not wonder
at there being sickness in the city, and the only
thing Is 1t is surprising it is not much worse. Al
the south end of the Duluth freight sheds and
under the platforms there seems to be an extra
amount of filth, enough to breed all kinds of dis
ease. 1t may be said that the health officers
should attend to having all nuisances removed.
but 80 long as the city has ali its sewers opening
on the lake front, and the discharge therefrom
not emptying into the lake, but left to spread
ana dry in the sun, how can a health officer do
anything? The health officer appears to have
very little power, and he is not backed by the
city authorities in the manner he should be. The
city authorities are culpably negligent in not
providing the health officer with the means to put
the city in healthy condition, as no better officer
can be found than DR.. Merrill, but having no
funds at his disposal what can he do? If it vera
not for the healthy location of the city we could
not fortell the results, but II we were on level
PLAIN like many cities, with better sanitary ia
cllltles than we have we would have the highest
instead of the lowest death rate that the city has
always boosted of. If we cannot have good
sewerage we would like to know who can, but to
nave the sewers exposed at their outlets wa
Ihlnk needs attending to, or the results may be
much morse than they have yet been.

Sitting BulI-The Opera House Episode
Denied.

To the Editor OF the Globe.
small paragraph appeared in the GLsBE yes
terday about an attempt which was alleged to
have been made at the Grand Opera house a few
evenings since, to shoot Sitting Bull. On inves-
tigation we find it was simply the rawlings of an
intoxicated man, who was really too drunk 10
shoot anybody, except to shoot off his mouth
and that hurt nobody but himself. We can see
no reason why Sitting Bull should not have the
privilege Of visiting and seeing our city like any
other visitor. He never massacred white; he
always kept away from the agencies; be never
partook of the bounty of the government and
in the late battle he simply made a straight,
square fight in the defense of his wife, children
and people. which was forced upon him by the
troops, and having more Indians than whites he
won the battle. This is historical fact, so
after all Bull is not as bad an Indian as he has
been painted

Included in the above cost is an item of $500
for repairs on Eighth street where the street
railway company abandoned their track between
Sloley and Locust streets. This track was aban-
doned and the rails taken up, leaving the
strlnSers and ties in the ground, making it
necessary to re-surface the street.
The large quantity of mud constantly beino
dragged IN from unpaved cross streets makes it
impossible to clean the paved streets by sweeping
so that we are forced to depend entirely upon
scraplng off the mud with hoes, which at the best
Is put makeshift as it only removes portion of
the art. Even in this we are greatly bothered
by the sprinkling, owing to the fact that it il
necessary to even partially clean the pavement
that the dirt should be well wetted, and having
no centrorof the sprinklng carts we ere fire.
quently obliged TO depend upon the rain for the
necessary wetting to admit of its being scraped
OFF.
Another difficulty which adds considerably tn
the expense is that the men employed in scrap
ing the streets are constantly being driven from
Their work by passing teams. This can be OBJ
waited by doing the work at night, provided, we
can arrange to have the streets sufficiently wet
at the proper time.
With the increased area of paved streets.
When these now under contract are com
pleted, l am of the opinion that il
would be desirable next season to experiment
with sweeping machine. BY the use of
sweeping machine, which can only be used on a
comparatively dry street, the streets can be
cleaned between IL O'Clock at night and O'Clock
In the morning, and so cleaned as to require
much less sprinkling during the day, and by
preventing their being sprinkled late in the
afternoon or evening they would, by - o'clock,
except in of rain, be in proper condition for
sweeping, resulting, think, in considerable
saving III cost and doing away with the mud now
ever present on our best cleaned streets
Our labor reports for the month show total of
20,931 days labor of men. and 4, ia days' labor
of teams. The highest number at work on any
one day. being on the 2Sth of the month, consist.
ing of S95 men and 211 teams. Notwithstanding
the fact that there has been considerable rain
during the month our reports show that work
has been done each day including SUNDAYS and
that for nineteen days there were over 500 men
employed. The lowest record is on the 18th.
