So say We All.

New York World.
The existence of unnamable vices has long
been a sad enough factin all centers OF civil
iZation. But the normal methods of fighting
them do not include the rehearsal of their de-
tails and sickening minutise in the columns of
newspapers that have the entree of homes
and commanded the confidence of parents.
The suppression of such abhorrent prac-
tees as the Pail Mall Gazette is now exploit
ing does not, IL seems TO US, demand the dis
cussion of them at the tea-table. The ma
chinery OF society, backed by virtuous and
resolute authority, ought TO be able not only
to fence on the cancerous wretches where
they can die in congenial gloom, but it ought,
on the other hand, to preserve some of the
sweetness and purity of life which is ignorant
of these things.
If some newspapers in New York city were
to print in detail the horrible daily story of
vice and crime against women in this metrop-
oils, which any intelligent reporter could pre-
pare at an hours notice, how many extra
copies could IL SELF Probably a hundred
Thousands; but that particular newspaper
might not be n welcome visitor to innocent
homes in years to come.

Impor.an, Board Meeting.

An important meeting of the board of
trade will be held this morning, and every
member should be in his place promptly.
The matter to be considered is the attitude
Minneapolis should assume toward rail-
roads seeking an entrance. and more espe-
cially TO endeavor to bridge over the
present difficulty between the North
ern Pacific and the regents of
the university 1t is held that
the commercial interests of the city will be
greatly hampered unless the Northern
Pacific is permitted to complete its inter
urban line, and especially so as the Min
neapolis & st. Louis. and at least one other
road, is depending on this line TO reach st.
Paul. A communication has been received

MOVE ON FLOUR RATES.
Rates by the LudingtOn Route Discov.:
cred to Be Less Than via Duluth
or Chicago.
The Relationship Existing Between the
Minnesota & Northwestern and
Other Railroads.
Coal Rates from Chicago to Interior
Points to BE, the Same as
via Duluth.
East-Bound Shipments from Chicago
for the First Half of 1885
- Miscellany.
Another Matter for settlement.

A new complication in the shipping of
flour TO the East has Just sprung into
prominence, which will necessitate another
meeting of the Northwestern Traffic assO-
citation for settlement. if it can be settled
at meeting. Yesterday it was learned
that consignment of flour was forwarded
by the Milwaukee and LudingtOn route to
New York at rate less than what the
st. Paul q Duluth is taking it for.
When the advance in rates to Duluth was
made by the st. Paul IL Duluth road and
by the Omaha to Washburn by request of
the Northwestern Traffic association, it
was done to have rates on the same basis
to Duluth as to Milwaukee and Chicago.
OF course the rates remain as they were
fixed. but the railroads must look to what
the different lake transportation companies
are doing, and it was discovered yesterday
that the line via LudingtOn was contract
ing for any amount of business at cents
per barrel of flour less than via Duluth
from st. Paul and Minneapolis, and cents
per barrel less than via Chicago. 1t is not
improbable that the st. Paul q Duluth
will again lower its rates TO 10-cent per
100-pOund basis to Duluth, and if this hap
pens the Omaha will do likewise to
Washburn. This low rate by the Luding-
ton route, which is by way of either the
Milwaukee " ST. Paul or Omaha roads to
Milwaukee, by boat to Ludington, the
Flint IL Pierre Marquette railway to Flint,
Mich, and the Grand Trunk from
there to destination, will divert
business from Chicago and the
eastern trunk lines, and as soon as the latter
see what is being done. they will certainly
not adhere 10 the 20-cent rate they agreed
upon, and which was put into effect from
Chicago to New York on Monday. The st.
Paul " Duluth has large amount of flour
in transit, but it will not look at the bust
ness departing by another route, when it is
justly entitled to a share of it, without say
ing anything about it. Traffic Manager
Clarke of the Omaha line is at Milwaukee
at present, and will return probably to-day
or tomorrow, and the question will likely
be brought up and some arrangement made
whereby the rates by all routes to the East
will be made alike.

THE ERIE's INTEREST.
Work Continues.

Work on the st. Paul & Northern Pa
cific road continues, and if no other obstruc-
ton is put in its way it will be completed
by the expiration of the time intended.
Much interest is manifested in the attempt
of the state university regents to have the
work cease where the line crosses their
property, and the general sentiment is in
favor of the railroad company. That the
line is public necessity will be shown later
on, as the business of the two cities devel-
ops, and when the Manitoba company will
be unable to haul all the traffic thrown upon
it by other roads. And it is thought best
that the business passing between the two
cities should not be controlled by any one
company.

Baking powder rramps.

The danger to the public health from the
indiscriminate use of the many lime and
alum baking powders of commerce has been
so fully exposed that everybody desires to
avoid them. AS 'forewarned is fore
armed" hOusekeepers will thank us for ap-
prising them of the special efforts at pres
ent being made to dispose of such powders
in this vicinity.
The proprietors of some of the worst of
these powders are now going from house to
house, trying by means of trick, or So
called test, with heat and water, to show
that their article is as good as the Royal
Baking Powder, making the comparison
with this brand because everybody recog-
niZes it to be absolutely pure and whole
some, the object, of course, being to supply
their own goods in place of the Royal,
which housekeepers have for so many years
relied upon to puff up the morning biscuit,
and to make the light, palatable and whole
some roll, cake and pastry, for which it is
famous.
The hOusekeeper will do well to be on her
guard against these baking powder tramps.
Every intelligent person knows that any
goods peddled from house to house in this
manner, or that are given away in samples,
or sought to be introduced by secretly ira
ducing the character of other goods well
known to be pure and reliable, have no
merits of their own, and have failed to find
purchasers through legitimate means.
We are informed, as a matter of fact,
hat one of these tramps is trying to intro
duce powder that has been found by the
government chemist to be 11.S5 per cent.
lime, while the other peddles powder that
is 20 per cent. alum-one powerful
caustic, the other corrosive poison.
No such tricks or jugglery will be apt to
deceive any intelligent person. The house
keeper who has used her Royal Baking
Powder ever since she discarded cream of
tartar and soda, knows more about its quail
tiles than all the tramps in the country can
teach her. The crucial test to which she
has put the Royal Baking Powder-the test
of actual and successful work in the prepar-
alton of pure and wholesome food, under
which it has never failed-is entirely salts
factory to her. She has always had good
luck" with it in making light, sweet and
| delicious bread, biscuit and cake, and has
placed it, to stay, at the head of her house,
keeping favorites. She knows that it'has
been officially approved by the government
chemist as the best, and we imagine that
the baking powder tramp who attempts to
supplant its place in her confidence will
find this a bad year for his business.

East-Bound Shipments.

Special to the Globe
CHICAGO, July 1.-THE report of east
bound tonnage for the first six months of
this year is very instructive table, especi-
ally to those who have persisted in declaring
that it was decrease in business that was
troubling the Eastern railroad world. From
Jan. / TO June 80, there
was shipped from this city to
the seaboard 1,521, 265 tons of grain,
flour and provisions, against LOSE, 5S7 in
the first half of 1884. The tonnage has in
creased this year by 4Gl. TBS tons. The
shipments increased from 200, POS tons in
the first half of 1884 to 354, 1863 tons in 1855,
a growth of 154. Isl tons or % per
cent. Shipments of provisions declined
8. I16 tons, OF rs per cent; grain shipments
rose from 64T, ITO tons in 1884 to $50, sos
tons this year, an increase OF S6.4 per cent.
In regard to the roads carrying the traffic
the Pennsylvania and the Michigan Cen
trail took a larger percentage than they did
of the total carried in the first half of 1884.

THERE'S merit in the proposed scheme to
provide for the older and more inirm MEM
bers of the police force by putting them on
light work with decreased pay They are
capable of doing police duty about the parks
and other places which do not require SO
much activity as the long beats. The GLOBE
has heretofore advocated a system of PEN
sioning veteran policemen who have worn
themselves out i'm the service of city. They
should be provided for in their old days and
not be turned out on the cold charity Of an
uncharitable world. The proposition TO pro
vide he inhrm members of our police force
wi such positions as we have suggested
deserves favorable consideration.

Through Business Arrangements.

President Stickney of the Minnesota &
Northwestern road yesterday said to a
GLOBE reporter that he did not intend do
ing much on the construction of the Du-
buque & Northwestern road this season.
just what his reason for this is he would
not say, but it is said to be ON account of
the city of Dubuque not raising the sum of
S160, 900 to help the enterprise along, as it
agreed to do. This will delay the compile
ton and operating over the Minnesota Il
NorthweSteTnS hort line to Chicago by way
of Dubuque, and it will run by way of For
reston to Chicago by the Chicago, Burling
ton q Quincy and the Illinois Central. as it
has made arrangements to do. 1t was
stated yesterday that the Illinois Central
had practically completed arrangements
with the Minnesota & Northwestern
whereby it would run its trains through
from Chicago over the latter line and pay a
wheelage to the Minnesota IL Northwest
ern. If this is so. it sets at rest the many rJ-
mors circulated that the new line Will be con-
trolled and operated by the Illinois Central.
In regard to business to DeS MOineS, Mr..
Stiekney says there will be no difficulty in
making arrangements OH freight, but pas
senger matters will require more attention
and matters on that traffic will be harder to
fix up. All passenger trains from Iowa are
running so that it will be Impossible to
make connections for points further south,
and Mr.. Stickney is now buSying himself
in trying to have the lines running south
from that point make new time tables so
that close connections can be made.
