SCOTT AND THE TREASURY.

There seems very good ground for the be-
lief that the president has had under con-
sderation for secretary of the treasury the
name OF Hon. w. l.. SCOTT of Pennsylva-
lila. 1t is thought, too, that Mr.. SCOTT
would not be adverse to accepting the ap-
pointment. His political ambition was not
satisfied by his election to congress from a
Republican district, and it is but natural to
expect him to look with favor upon sug-
geStiOn which would result in increasing
his political Importance. But it is a matter
for grave doubt whether Mr.. ScoTT's APP
pointment is one which would commend
itself to the general public, He is man
who has very intimate relations with Wall
street and the great spectators who manip-
ulate the market. In addition he is connected
i'll a proprietary way with railroads. coal
mines and other business interests which
could be directly affected by the action of
treasury officials, not that Mr.. SCoTT would
be inclined to manipulate the department
in the interest Of himself and associates
but there would never be lacking persons
who would make direct charges to that
effect. However baseless they might be
the effect would be bad and the party would
soon discover it. Among the most con-
servative Democrats that seems to be the
most commonly accepted opinion. But the
same class in decryiDg one candidate has
another to offer. 1t is suggested that the
president could not make more capable
selection, and one which would strike
more popular chord than Hon. ALLEN
G. THURMAN of Ohio. There is no ques-
ton of his capability, and there is no
question also but that the suggestion will
be heartily re-echoed in many quarters.

The Sprintfug Outlook.

Daniel j. O'Leary, the famous pedes-
trian, arrived in Indianapolis yesterday and
is now stopping at the st. James hotel. He
had been in the city but a short time, when
he heard that Al Schock. the ex-champion
bicyclist. was anxious to try conclusions
with him, SO Schock was hunted up and
their meeting resulted in match being
made for 500 side, the race to be fifty
hours straight away, square heel and toe, to
take place at the Washington rink, COM
mencing Thursday evening next at p. m.
and ending Saturday evening at 10 p. m.
The money was posted in the hands of
George Andrews, Chicago gentleman, who
was present and who is well-known to both
O'Leary and Schock. A race between
these two men has been looked for for
some time, owing to a feeling which has ex-
listed betwean them as to whether O'Leary'S
speed was superior to Schocks endurance.
Arrangements were made at once with the
manager of the rink, and it is anticipated
that the race will be largely attended. In
a six-day horse VS.. bicycle race at Memphis,
Tenn, O'Leary riding seven horses and
changing at will, Schock using bicycle.
Schock was the winner. Schock about two
years ago defeated O'Leary by mile in a
ffty-mile race. O'Leary defeated Schock
and a large field in a six-day walk, about
three years ago in Chicago.

THE MINNEAPOLIS STRIKE.


The strike of the street car drivers in
Minneapolis will revive discussion of the
duty of employers to provide proper de-
gree OF comfort for their employees. The
immediate cause of the strike was
an order from the street railway man
agement disseminating the practice of al
lowing street car drivers to occupy seats
while driving 1t has not been a great
while ago since there was an agitation in
various cities of the question whether or not
the owners of dry goods stores and
other establishments in which sales
women were employed should be compelled
to permit their employees to sit down during
business hours. There was humane fea-
ture in favor of the proposition which at
tracted public sympathy and resulted in the
concession being made. In the case ofithe
street car drivers it is claimed by the man.
agement of the street railways that it is
impossible for driver to sit down while
passing along a crowded thOroughfare with
out involving risk to the passengers, and
that he is required to stand as measure of
security to the public, for whose benefit the
street cars are run. While it is true that
better service may be rendered by a stand
Ing driver than by sitting one, still there
is humane feature involved in this trouble,
and the managers and employees are to be
congratulated that an adjustment is likely
to be brought about which will be just to
both and satisfactory to the public.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Defense of Doran.

AUSTIN. Mimi, June ell noticed in last
Saturdays issue of your valuable paper
communication from Minneapolis, signed "a
Northman." 1t fully describes the senti-
ment entertained by majority Of my coun-
trymen in this section of the country in re-
gard to Hon. NJ. Doran of st. Paul It is in
justice to Mr.. Doran that our feeling in this
patronage controversy should be made
known, as some of our party leaders seem to
lay all the blame on Mr.. Dorans shoulders
for all causes of complaint, and seem to think
that with him out of the way all will be well.
That there is some cause for complaint we
do not deny, but that ought to be laid on the
right shoulders. We, for our part, look upon
Mr.. Doran as ethe great expounder of our
rights in this matter, and we think his
only aim in this business has been to
look for the welfare Of the Democratic party;
that he has acted without fear or favor of
anyone, and if everybody else that has been
connected with this patronage business had
acted with the same fairness and good COM
mon sense as Mr.. Doran has, better feeling
in the Democratic party of this state would
have been the result, and we, as nationality,
would look upon his removal from his post
as great calamity to our party, and we
should feel that a great friend for our rights
would have been lost to US. Hoping that
wiser counsel will prevail when our Demo-
cratic friends next meet to pass on the inter-
ests of our party in this state, remain, yours
truly, A NORWEGIAN DEMOCRAT.

Duluth's Surprising Ambition.

Duluth Tribune.
Some Of the St. Paul papers have been 60
ing into ecstasies over that city as summer
resort, building their hopes on the corner
stone of a cool day now and then, while less
among high thermometrical figures, and a
lake or two within riding distance. Why,
bless your innocent souls down there, Dulu tn
can discount St. Paul seventeen to nothing
and then not use up her resources as a sum-
mer resort. There is nothing lacking up here
except few features that are coming along
with agreeable expedition, not the farthest
away of which is an immense lakeside sum-
mer hotel that will be great as summer
resort hotel, and somewhat greater as
winter resort. ST. Paul is a very
nice place for young city,
and there are other nice places within reach
of it for people who cam go anywhere else,
but when nature formed the site Of Duluth
and handed it over to civilized people, she
did so with the positive injunction, make a
summer resort out of this" Well, we are a
little behind hand in doing it, it's true; but.
barring few circumstances over which peo-
pie here had no control, they are getting
there now in fine form. There is land and
water all around Duluth more of either than
can be put to use, and as for scenery, COOL
soft breezes on warm days, fishing, boating
and all that sort of thing, why, all resorters
have to do is to help themselves. The goodly
city at the head of navigation on the Missis-
Sippi isn't circumstance when compared
to the Zenith city at the head of navigation
of all the lakes. But we are generous and do
not begrudge ST. Paul the little she has.

TIE MORRISON BILL.


To-day Mr.. MORRISON will again call up
his tariff bill. He has already announced
that he has no expectation of it being
passed, but he wants to give the members
of the house an opportunity to get squarely
on the record. Even those who do not ad-
mire Mr.. MoRRIsoN's craftsmanship will
admire his pluck. He has enlisted for the
war as tariff reformer and is going to
fight it. AS the GLOBE indicated at the
time, it was singularly unfortunate for
the cause of tariff reform that
Mr.. MORRISON was placed at the head of
the committee on ways and means at the
beginning OF the present congress. 1t was
not because of any doubt of Mr.. MoRRI-
SONS zeal in the cause. but it was because
that he does not possess any of the ele-
mentS of successful leadership that we re-
garded his appointment as chairman of this
important committee misfortune. Mr..
MORRISON has such bungling way of do
ing things that he is totally disqualified
for command. He is a man who
is capable Of doing excellent service in
subordinate position, but is no leader. His
tariff BILL which will be voted on to day, is
far from being perfect. 1t is such lame
effort at genuine reform of the tariff as to
be discouraging to the friends of the cause.
At the same time it is great deal better
than nothing, and being the only bill before
congress that even squints at tariff reform,
it deserves the support of tariff reform adj
vocates. 1t is pretty well demonstrated
now that the protectionists are in
control of both houses of congress and there
is no possibility of any sort of tariff bill
being passed. If by any sort of chance the
MORRISON bill should pass the house to-day
it would be smothered the very instant it
crossed the threshold of the senate. But
there is no possibility of it getting that far
along. With the Republicans in the house
soldly opposed to it, with four honorable
exceptions. and handful of Democrats
representing manufacturing districts, who
with the Republican members constitute
a majority, it is hoping against hope that
the bill will pass. At the same time Mr.
MORRISON is doing right in forcing another
vote. An appeal will be made from con-
gress to the people, and the Issue should be
properly made up. Hereafter very little at
tention will be paid to the pledges of party
platforms or to the promises of candidates.
The people are going to look around for
men who are known to be tariff reformers
from principle, and when found they are
going to be sent to congress. An eye is
going to be kept on the legislatures which
elect United States senators. 1t may tax
some time to reconstruct the senate suffi-
GENTLY to assure a majority in favor of re-
ducing the taxes but it is only matter of
time. 1t will be done. There is to be no
more amateur sparring with soft gloves.
The tariff reformers are stripped to the
waist and somebody is going to get black

Jr.. general solicitor.
In the annual report Mr.. Fisher recon-
mended the leveling and Strengthening of
the road, and, in short, putting it in first
class condition in every respect and gave
his reasons for the recommendations These
were published at the time. The construc-
ton of the shops in East st. Paul has been
recommended. The directors ordered
that the road should be put in first-class
shape as soon as possible. AS an example
it may be stated that from Thompson to
Graphic Point the grade of the road will
be reduced about fifty feet. This is one
of the heaviest reductions. Others will be
reduced so that the road-bed will present
very level appearance, and the moving of
heavy loads will be rendered easy. Three
hundred freight cars are to be purchased
Immediately. In regard to the shops
nothing definite was determined upon. but
it is clearly understood that as fast as the
road can make the money it shall be put
into shops. The officers have all the au-
thority necessary to go ahead with every
thing as fast as good Judgment warrants.

fired four bullets into himself, were brought

of young Thompson. The remains
were buried in the village cemetery
besides those of his mother. The funeral
was private, only relatives and intimate
friends being present. Young Thompson's
relatives declare that the cause of the trag-
edy was his desperate financial condition.
The story that he was worried by another
love affair is not well founded. He was en-
gagged to young lady, but they separated
without violent scene. Among those

PITTsBURa, Pa, June 21.-Shortly be-
fore noon to-day there was great excite
ment in the waiting room of the union
depot over the attempt of middle-aged
man named DXey Dawson to kill his wife
and sister-in-law. Dixey and his wife sep
arated a year ago. and the latter went to
reside with her sister, who lives in this
city. Dawson has been employed out of

twice, the first ball leaving a red mark on
his wife's cheek. The second. intended
