CAPITOL NOTES,

Mr.. Z. S. Pettijohn, auditor of NicOllet
county, was visitor at the capitol yester
day.
The railway commissioners will attend to
that portion of their duties touching grain
inspection and handling at the recently
opened offices in Drake block but retain
their offices at the capitol for the railway
business.
Rev. II. II. Hart, superintendent of cor
rections and charities, has returned from
his trip with the commissioners to locate
the third insane asylum. Several points
along the Northern Pacific railway, men-
toned heretofore in the GLOBE, were Wis
tied, and at each hospitable reception was
given by the citizens.
Attorney General Hahn Yesterday gave A
reply to William Andrews relative to the
powers of county commissioners in forming
school districts. Mr.. Andrews asked if
people in one half of district petition that
a new district be made from the other half
against the wishes of the latter, and keep
the property, including the school house,
belonging to it; and if the action of the
| county commissioners would be legal in
| forming such new district. The attorney
says that commissioners have no power to
change boundaries except on petition of a
majority of the legal voters of all districts
/ affected. A majority of the voters in each
district is necessary to make the above &C
/ ton legal.
/ Assistant Superintendent of Public In
struction Pendergast prepared yesterday a
call for meeting of state institute in
structors to be held at the capitol, begin
| ing Wednesday, July o. at 10 o'clock.
! The object of the session will be to discuss
/ freely, questions relating to institute work
/ throughout the state. Among the subjects
named are review of the last years work
to be given III reports from instructor:
and the superintendent; how to provide il
the organization and conduct of the insti
tutes for different grades of instruction
All county superintendent and normal
school instructors, as well as institute in
structorS, are invited to attend.

NEW STREET CAR FRANCHISE.
The Right OF the West Side Conn
Pany to Operate "a Road.

Pahy 10 OpeES1te al AeOa0s
The ordinance submitted at the last meet
ing of the council to charter new street
car company for West st. Paul appears to
be exciting considerable talk in one part
and another. 1t is said that the st. Paul
Street Railway company is opposed to the
scheme and may contest the point when
the proper time arrives. In collOquial dis
cusSion ON the subject the point has been
raised as to whether or not the charter of
the present company is sufficient to allow
that company to lay down tracks in West
st. Paul and other parts of the city taken
in since the right was extended to the COM
pany. Speaking about the matter yester-
day City Attorney Murray said he had given
the subject very little thought up to this
time, but he did not think there was any
question about the company's right to put
down tracks in West st. Paul. Its char
ter simply specified the city, not, however,
as it was then outlined. With the spread
of the city the company would naturally
wish to extend its tracks and there was no
doubt as to its right. There might on the
other hand be a point for dispute as to
whether new company would have any
right to run cars in West st. Paul. Con-
corning this he was not prepared to say. If
such question were raised it would be a
matter between the present company and
any one attempting to establish another
system of street cars.

MOVES DECLINES.

Ex-Gov. MOVES seems to have a better
appreciation of the unfitness of his own ap-
pointment as one of the Union Pacific rail-
road commissioners than the administration
had. He has declined to accept it. The
Cincinnati Enquirer blames Secretary LA
MAR and Gov. HoADLY for the bad break
that was made in this matter. If this be a
fact it will heap to initiate against HoAD-
LY's chances for the Democratic nominal
ton in Ohio. The Ohio Democrats differ
on a good many things, but if there is any
one thing upon which the party in that
state can unite it is general and perpetual
condemnation of every man who had a
hand in perpetrating upon the nation the
great fraud of 1876 whereby the will of the
people was overthrown and the most seri-
Gus strain given to our Republican institu-
tons that was ever inflicted. It's to be
hoped that the Enquirer is mistaken. 1t is
hard to believe that Gov. HoADLY, who
was familiar with the history of
MOVES participation in that fraud, would
attempt to impose him upon the admins
tration, and particularly so as Gov. HoAD-
LY is known to be warm personal friend
of Mr.. TILDEN.

Observation-Disclosures SAY.

DR.. VoN ERMENGEN says that "Amer-
lea need not have cholera unless she
chooses" America will be very apt 10
take the doctor at his word. He and DR..
FERRAN agree that sea quarantine
properly observed is a sure guarantee
against cholera and both condemn land
quarantine. The Spanish doctors are very
cautious in their expressions relating 10 the
value of FERRAN's incubation theory. They
are evidently doubtful of its success, while
FERRAN himself has aroused suspicion
that he is more of a chsrlatan than a sci
enlist by offering to accept 5O,0O0 francs as
the price for disclosing the secret of the
method by which he attenuates or grad
yates the virus. The safest plan for the
United States to pursue is to maintain a
rigid system of quarantine for all vessels
coming from infected ports.

extent of the West, and will return again
and go over some other line.

terday and will leave on a special car at

The Milwaukee & st. Paul has issued a
circular stating that fourth-class rates will
apply on butter, cheese and eggs, in straight
or mixed car loads, minimum weight 20,
600 pounds, from stations in Wisconsin
governed by the joint Western classified
ton, also from stations in Iowa, Minnesota
and Dakota. except DeS Moines, Council
Bluffs, Sioux City and points governed by
the Northwestern Traffic association.
The Milwaukee & st. Paul announces to
shippers, agents and connecting lines that,
advised by the railway companies parties
TO joint circular of April l, 1885, regarding
the transportation of Intoxicating liquors to
points in the state of Kansas, that said cir
cular has been withdrawn. Shipments of
beer. wine and intoxicating liquors destined
to points in the state of Kansas may now be
received and forwarded without restriction
of any kind.

IT'S NATIVE AIR.

Our morning contemporary Is right when
it says that the Republican party has hereto
fore taken too much of its political thought
from the Pennsylvania school of protection.
But if it supposes that the Republican party
is ever going TO relax its grip on the protec-
ton idea, then. in the language of Mr.. FLAN-
NAGAN, ii doesn't comprehend what the Re
publican is here for. The Republican party
without protection platform would be the
play with HAMLET left out. Whenever the
tariff question is adjusted to the interests of
the whole country it will be done by the
Democratic party. We agree with our con-
temporary that the Republican party has
won its last victory on this issue, and yet
that party will never go into a political
contest on any other issue. 1t has
been a matter of surprise that so many of
the Western states have been SO blind to
their own interests as to aid in keeping the
Republican party, with its high protective
policy, in power so long. 1t is gratifying
to note, however. that the scales are falling
from the eyes of the Western farmers and
that they are being forced to a realization of
the fact that their great agricultural inter-
ests are dependent for prosperity on the
success and continued supremacy of the
Democratic party. Michigan is a notable
illustration of this awakening process in
the minds of the Western grangers. The
next election in Iowa will further verify
it. Nothing is palmer than that when the
hand of the protectionist is withdrawn from
the support of the Republican party the or
pQniy1 finn will C1ffar a immpIiarp pnl-
lapse. So long then as it does exist it will
move and live, and have its being in high
tariff atmosphere.

more regular procedure would appear TO be
trial for murder or before a court-martlal.
But court-martial can hardly be summoned
for this purpose in times Of peace, and war
was never declared against RIEL- Such war
as men make against wild beasts and India ms
was doubtless made, but that state OF de facto
war no longer exists, as indeed appears from
the fact of indictment according TO peaceful
custom. Perhaps the lawyers can show that
when they charged war they meant some
thing else. Thus the dynamiters were
convicted of levying war in London, it
being explained that such a breach of the
queens peace was within the language of
the writ. If these questions are not evaded,
but settled upon their merits, the trial, which
begins on the Goth inst, will be very inter
esting."

HAVING lost its case against the street
railway company, our dyspeptic Third street
neighbor has drawn its bow-string with the
evident intention OF letting fly a few darts at
the St Paul s. Duluth Railway company. In
our railway columns viii be found state
ment of what that company is doing, from
which il appears that there is not much foun-
dation for growing. AS long as White Bear is
prominent point on the road it occurs to US
thatthe railroad company would consult its
own interest by giving special attention
toward accommodating that point with the
best facilities at its disposal II the time
should come that it does not, then a company
which is so blind TO its own interests ought to
have competition.

CALL TIE CONVENTION.

The conviction is deepening that st. Paul

it is contemplated to have convene here in
September. The chamber of commerce

deal of machinery is to be set in motion to

Northwestern states and territories. 1t is

issue the call and cooperate with the inter
ested states and territories in the North
west and only awaits the approval of the

A NEW PLAGUE IN PORTUGAL

A people who live in state of supersti-
ton and filth, in eras of epidemics, are more
likely TO be smitten with the worst phases of
any plague that may prevail than those who
are wise in their day and generation, and
take proper sanitary precautions. The
force of this may be noted in the condition
of Spain and Portugal The cholera
is still raging with undated fury, and now
a new and still more deadly plague has
seized upon the people of Portugal, which
battles the physicians, who cannot even
diagnose the case. The patient dies almost
Immediately upon being stricken. and there
appears TO be no remedy to stay the course
of the disease, which is rapidly progressive
to death. The pathology of this disease
is not given in detail in our dispatches, and
but a poor idea is given of its character.
1t is perhaps phase of the cholera plague
aggravated by peculiar conditions in Por-
tugal, which is VIGOROUSLY unsanitary.

There is a man in Wisconsin whom some OF
our railroad kings should get hold of. The
fact that he is in states prison won't be much
of an objection, as railroad kings are sup
posed 10 have governors and judges under
their thumbs. This man, in the space OF
three months, organized three canal comps-
mics and fioeted out $4,000 worth
of stock AT 500. He organized
two mineral springs companies. and
got rid of 1000 worth of stock for $3.50. He
organized sGuitarium. and gave away ST.
900 worth of stock for S225. He organized q
water-power company, paid dividends before
a dam was built, and came out Sl,l5O ahead.
He was organizing railroad company, and
was about TO call in u capital of $1,000 when
the law grabbed him and shut him up. The
man, if properly coached. has great future
before him.

Excitement AT white Rear,

The Japanese festival given last evening
by the ladies of the Presbyterian church,
White Bear, was a complete success. The
costumes of the ladies, the manner of doing
up the hair. the great needles stuck through
their elevated chignons, and even the hero
glyphics on their faces were fac-similes of
what may be seen on japanese fans and
other ware. The hall was decorated with
japanese fans, lanterns and other insignia
of that ancient land, but the coffee. ice
cream and cake were truly American, and
were distributed with lavish hand by the
imitatOrs of the Japanese ladies. They ex-
pect to do big business to-day and this
evening, and are worthy of patronage, as
the cause in which they are engaged is for
the benefit of the Presbyterian church.

mated for the southern four tiers of coun-
ties is II 27-100 bushels, and in the north
ern counties 16 39-100 bushels. The num-
Der of acres reported in wheat the present
year Is 1,4S0,055. The condition of other
crops, expressed in per cent. condition, one

THF Minneapolis Tribune makes the per-
tinent suggestion that the city should pro
vide facilities for watering horses upon the
streets. This is something that should be
provided for in every city, and the sugges-
ton is just as pertinent TO st. Paul as TO
Minneapolis. There is an inexcus2ble cruelty
in keeping horses at work on the streets all
day in this hot weather without a drop of
water TO slake their thirst, when at a very
small expense watering troughs could be
placed on all the principal thOroughfares.

SHORTLY before the French man-of-war,
La Flore, left New York, Admiral LACoMBE
said TO a reporter of the New York World:
Although the French language is rich in
words expressive of joy and delight, can
find none sufficiently strong to convey 10 the
people OF this country my admiration for the
splendid reception accorded myself and Off
GERS during our stay here" Evidently the
officers who escorted BARTHoLDI's liberty 10
this country have had a good time. 1t seems,
too, peculiarly befitting that the most cordial
and intimate relations should exist between
the only two great nations that are under a
republican form of government.
