A San Francisco man has favorite

RETTER SOuARE ZIP.

Under the light of the figures published by
the GLOBE this morning it is very appro-
pirate suggestion that before asking the
people of this city for new lease Of power,
Messrs. MERRIAM and MCCARDY had better
step up to the counter and settle up the old
account which has been running for over
six years. 1t Is bad plan to open a. new
set of books until the old are closed 1t is
true, the books are in bungled shape, but
MERRIAM and MCCARDY can't complain
of that. They bungled them. But as badly
mixed up as they are, they show on their
face in the figures made by the gentlemen
themselves that there is an outstanding in
debtedness of several thousand dollars.
which ought to have been squared up six
years ago. Mr.. MERRIAM is banker and
it is not the usual system of banks to allow
a customer to OveTdraw his account and
leave it unsettled for six years. If he does
the bank is never eager to cash his subSe-
quent checks. Mr.. MCCARDY is landlord
who rents tenements to people. When a
tenant leaves his rent unsettled for six years
landlords usually do not hunt up these de-
faulting tenants to occupy their houses.
Thepeople of ST. Paul have just enough of
the reform business method about them to
apply these everyday business principles to
the applications of Messrs. MERRIAM and
MCCARDY and require them to close up the
old books before honoring any future drafts
When the city wants a new tenant for the
comptrOllers Office it will at least get one
who keeps his rent paid up.

THE WORKINGMEN.

The wOrkingmen of st. Paul realize that
they have an interest of great magnitude at
stake in the approaching municipal election.
They discover that the ring bosses of the
monopoly party have nothing in common
with the laboring classes. They recognize
that the Democratic party has always been
the friend of labor and thus they appreciate
the issues involved in the present canvass
in this city. 1t is the same old fight be-
tween monopoly and honest labor that has
been going on for long time. They see
in the candidates set up by the ring bosses
of the Republican party in this city the
representatives of the worst monopolies
They see the organ of monopoly and extor-
ton i'll this city straining every nerve in be-
half of the ring ticket. But fortunately the
present era in politics is one of enlight-
ened ideas and more than ordinary self-as-
sertion Oh the part of the people. The in
telligent workingmen see in our present
municipal contest the same two princi-
pies which have been arrayed against each
other in all ages of the world for the
mastery of gOvernment-one that the
wealthy few should govern and live in lux
ury; the other that the toiling many should
control, and shape public affairs for their
own benefit. There has always been class
in every country who believe themselves
born to rule and receive tribute; born booted
and spuTed to ride the laboring classes,
who are supposed by some to come into the
world bridled and saddled for mental serv-
ice. 1t is that class of Silk-stOcking gentry
who are seeking to ride the honest laborers
of this city to-day. They are the owners of
idle capital; the favOrites of fortune and of
special legislation, who, like the lilies of the
field, toll not, and yet surpass kings in the
SplendOrs Of their habits and luXuries. They
seek to override the great body of the peo-
pie who work with weary hands through
all the days of the year, and whose
earnings constitute the real worth
of the city. The plain, honest, sun
burnt workingmen of the city, the men
who increase the value of things by
skillful industry, are determined that
the candidates of the ring, men whose
hands are unstained by labor and whose
lives are given to Sumptuous ease, are not
the men to control their destinies. They
judge, and judge correctly, that man
whose greatness of brain and heart consists
solely in his ability to wiring money from
the hands of others and to amass sufficient
wealth to obscure his visions of justice on
earth and to darken his hopes of heaven here
after, is not the man to hold in his hand the
destinies of a great city, in whose pros
perity the laboring men are the principal
factors

mans. But when out of tune the discord
Is greater. When woman falls, she falls
deeper, and the jar is far more painful. 1t
is monStrous thing when young woman
goes counter to the prayers and teachings
of a mother.
Every day brings us accounts of young
men and young women going wrong. The
daily newspapers are perpetual record of
opponents, clandestine marriages, betrayed
virtue, divorces and assertions, suicides and
murders. One great cause of this social
maiady Is that we hardly have any boys
and girls. They are all young men and
young ladies. Our young people are hardly
out OF the cradle now until they are ushered
into all the pathways of society. What we
want Is to get back to the days when we had
poys and girls, and particularly girls. If
we want perfect wOmanhood our girls
must learn to keep the telephone of moth
er's love open between mothers heart and
the daughters heart. If the daughter be-
comes wife and mother still it is best to
keep the path well trodden between her
house and mothers house. No woman ever
grows old as long as she can bury her face
III her mothers breast and be girl. The
worst thing on earth is daughter saying
sharp things to her mother. II never put
one tear on that cheek or one pang in that
heart" said ALICE CAREY as she laid her
hand upon the cold brow of her dead mother.
NO flowers put on grave were ever so
beautiful as that memory.

READ AND DIGEST.

lnaccordance with its promise the GLOBE
publishes this morning the first chapters of
the serial story of the ''The RefOrmer I'm

Business, to which is added chapter on
what MERRIAM Does Not Know About

AN ENERVATING MALADY.

The Toronto News says that of the many
ills which afflict the Canadian body polite
there is none more enervating than the
mania for Office that has been developed by
very large percentage of the Canadian
population. Canada is one of our nearest
and best neighbOrs, yet we never suspected
that she had the same skeleton in her
closet that we have had in ours. The body
polite of the United States has been suffer-
ing from the same atfiiction for, 10 these
many years. but we have tried to hide it
from the view of our neighbors, under the
impression that they were happy in an ex-
mption from the fatal plague. AS it has
been made public that Canada is suffer
Ing from the same malady it is an inter
eSting question whether we caught the dis
ease from Canada or whether that country
presidents and cashiers, who are continually
passing across the line. No scientific fact is
more firmly established than that the plague
Is contagious and can be communicated
from one country to another. 1t is very
loathsOme malady and there will have to
be some international system of quarantine
adopted to prevent it spreading over the
entire earth. That the Canada type is ex-
actly the same disease which is affecting
this country is demonstrated by the symp-
toms described in the Toronto paper. We
quote from the News:
ut is fact so notorious as to only require
formulation to insure its universal accept
ance, that hundreds of vigorous young men,
to say nothing of battered old hulks who are
no longer seaworthy in any capacity, have no
loftier ambition aud no more independ-
eut outlook than place in the civil service
Commerce, agriculture, law and literature
throw open their avenues to them in vain
Perish the products of the soil, the triumphs
OF the forum, the laurels of the study, but
give them an Office where employment is not
so much OF an object as salary. These lotus
eaters often lack even the ambition To demand
the prizes of their ignoble calling. After
waiting upon providence and the politicians
until hope deferred has made their hearts
sick. they arrive at a condition of imbecility
that renders them willing to enter the civil
service III n price that skilled labor would re-
ject with contempt. Born of I cross between
Incidence and false notions of gentility, this
mania for feeding nj the public crib degener-
ates frequently into a scottish appetite for
Office for its own sake. When it happens that
the chronic ofiice-Seeker has, by rendering
himself a nuisance, by boring his friends and
their party leaders. by appealing to his church
and his nationality. and perhaps his secret
society, compelled the powers to throw him
bone, he sinks into lethargic Oblivion, and
becomes.of no use to king or country. man
or beast"
No man. woman or child in the United
States viii fail to recognize the Canada af-
fiction as a genuine case OF American
mania for office-seeking.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1885-04-26

says there was balance on hand at the eX-
Mr.. MERRIAM says the balance was 1882. 81
on the 9th day of August 1879. Now when
it is remembered that these two statements
were reports for the same fiscal year, and
that Secretary MCCARDY could draw on
no one else except Treasurer MERRIAM, and
that Treasurer MERRIAM could pay no
money except upon the draft of Secretary
MCCARDY, the discrepancies in the two ac-
counts are marvellous. That both reports
are incorrect is admitted by both officers in
their subsequent action, Mr.. MERRIAM
paying over to his successor an amount diff
ferent from what his report showed to be
due, and Mr.. MCCARDY failing to account
for as much as he reported to be balance
in the treasury. Leaving out of sight the
theory Of crookedneSs in this matter and
assuming that both officials were absolutely
honest still the system of bookkeeping
adopted by these gentlemen is so
crude, loose and unintelligible that it
does not commend them as linen
of business and strict accountability,
in whose hands the varied financial inter-
ests of the city would be safe"
A careful study of these reports, which
are published in to-day's GLOBE. will con-
vince the taxpayers of this city that more
thoroughly incompetent, inefficient and
disreputable system of conducting the finan-
cial business of the city could not be inau-
gurated than that adopted by Messrs. MER-
RAM and MCCARDY during the time that
they had hand in the public crib. Such
system has the msavory odor of crow meat
and nobody ever hankered after a second
