writer recalls that lrisnmeu were at the

was largely suppore ed by Irish citizens,
and that Boston police were tempered
with by Irish politicians of that city. His

Irish engage in conspiracies wherever
they may he, and he advises that the Eng

ST. PAUL,s FUTURE.

IT maybe to Mr.. PHIL ARMoUR's inter-
est to say that the pork packing star IS
taking its course westward from Chicago,
but that doesn't make it any the less true.
Chicago's supremacy as the great meat
market of the continent is at an end. 1t Is
not only true of the pork trade, but 1t IS
true of the cattle trade as well.
If Kansas City is to take Chicago's
place as the pork packing emporium
analogous reasoning makes it appear that
st. Paul is to be the great cattle market OF
the future. MAHoMET could go to the
mountains, but the mountains never went
70 MAHoMET. The cattle trade will come
to St. Paul. It cannot go to Chicago. ST.
PauPs advantages over Chicago, as the
cattle emporium of the West, are SO ap-
parent as not to admit of discussion. st.
Paul is the center of the great cattle-ralslng
belt of the Northwest, it is the center OF
the Northwestern railway system, it is at
the head OF navigation on the Mississippi,
and now that stock yards have been estab-
Iished here. there is no hope for Chicago to
compete with st. Paul for the cattle trade.
Having already wrenched supremacy of the
cattle trade from Chicago, st. Paul can
also enter the field as a competitor with
Kansas City in the pork packing industry.
Hogs can be raised in Minnesota, and sold
in St. Paul, as cheap as they can be raised
in Missouri and Nebraska and sold in
Kansas City. Northern Iowa and Western
Wisconsin will find better live stock
market in st. Paul than in either Chicago
or Kansas City. All that ST. Paul now
needs to become the greatest meat packing
city of the continent is to improve its oppor-
tunities. Will our people do it?

PowDERLY's REELECTION.

The Richmond labor convention has
given an earnest of its conservatism. The
almost unanimous reelection OF Mr..
PowDERLY is the highest guarantee that
the workingmen could give of their devo-
ton to principle and their determination to
adopt lawful methods only in their efforts
to secure the advancement OF labor inter-
ests. Mr.. PowDERLY merits the conf
dence that his fellow laborers repose in
his leadership. His tact, ability and con-
servatism saved the labor organization in
the crisis of its career. His reelection at
this time will give feeling of security to
all the business interests of the country.
The country will feel that with PowDERLY
at the head of the labor organization there
will be no danger of riots or serious dis
turbances. The labor organizations will be
strengthened under his mastery leadership,
and the cause of labor will be protected.

A RELIGIOUS ACT,

If it were possible to inject little relg-
ion into politics, good might be accom-
plished, but when it comes to dragging
politics Into the churches, the matter as
sumes an entirely different phase. There
fore we feel like congratulating the Metho-
dist conference in session at Saltwater on
its very wise action in squelching the at
tempt to make the Methodist church an
annex to the Republican party. There is
no reason why church member
may not be politician or why politician
NAV not be q church member. There is no
reason why minister of the gospel may
not hold political convictions and give ex-
preston to them in a manner becoming the
dignity and sacredness of his profession.
But there ale valid reasons why the church
as an organization should not permit itself
to become a political machine The great
head of the church has Himself drawn the
line between politics and religion. He has
said that the things which are CEsAR's
should be rendered unto CESAR, and the
things which are COPS should be rendered
exclusively unto Him, for He is a jealous
GOD, who will not permit His temple to be
desecrated with profane things. Of all the
deplorable things that are witnessed in this
world of sin and degradation the sorriest
sight of all is that of man who Holds the
sacred Office of minister in the holy church

a RAD FREAK

If Gen. DAVIS speeches are correctly
reported by his party organs he is engaged
in the singular task of trying to induce the
farmers of Southern Minnesota to believe
that the Republican state platform is all
wrong on the tariff question. This is
rather uphill work for the governor, but he
is reported to be labOring at it most aSsidu-
Ously. In his speech at st. Charles, as it is
reported in the Minneapolis Tribune, Gov.
DAVIS undertook to convince his audience
that the Republican protective tariff policy
had been as much of protection to Min
nesota farmers as it had been to Eastern
manufacturers, and he defended a high
tariff on that ground. This was marvel
Gus freak in a man who is ambitious to
represent Minnesota in the United States
senate. a man might as we'll attempt to
run water up hill as to try to convince the
farmers of Minnesota that high tariff
is blessing to them. Their everyday ex-
perience is positive contradiction to the
statement. They know better, and all the
sophistry that Gov. DAVIS and the advo-
Gates of protection can command will not
deceive the people on this question. The
low tariff plank in the state platform was
the only concession that the farmers got
from the Republican bosses in the state con-
vention, and now Gov. DAVIS and Mr..
LOVELY are trying to kick it out.

THE SWIrCHMEN,S STRIKE.


1t is gratifying to observe, in connection
with the switchmen's strike at Minneapolis,
that there are no evidences of disorder on
the part of the strikers. They made their de-
mand for increased wages and the demand
being refused, they quietly quit work. 1t is
to be regretted that there should be an occa-
sion for a disagreement between the roads
and the employees. Until an investigation
is made it cannot be told which side is in
the right and which is in the wrong. The
striking switchmen urge in their behalf
that they are only demanding the same pay
for their services that is paid to men of
their class in other localities. The railway
homogeneous ask for more time to consider
the proposition and want the men to con-
tinue work in the meantime. The switch
men, however, seem inclined to look upon
this request with suspicion, as they
are fearful that the extended time,
if granted, will be employed by the
the roads in bringing new men
in to take their places. They affirm that
they will create no trouble or disorder under
any circumstances and will rely upon public
opinion for support. 1t does seem that the
railways and the employees ought to come to
an immediate understanding and agreement
so that business shall not be interfered with
by the interruption of travel and trans
portation. If the railroads have valid rea-
sons for not acceding to the demands of the
strikers the reasons ought to be made pub
lie. 1t is a matter in which the public is
sufficiently interested to demand a speedy
adjustment of the trouble.

MR.. HEwITr's NOMINATION.

Tammany hall never did more judicious
act than when it nominated Mr.. HEWITT
for mayor of New York. His nomination
means the quelling of factional disturbances
and the continuance of Democratic suprem-
acy in the metropolis. Mr.. HEWITT is
stronger than all the factions of his party.
He is stronger than the party itself. His
long public record is without blot. He is
aman of exceptional ability, pure character,
clean reputation and in every way deserving
the confidence and esteem I'm which he is
held. That he will make a good mayor of
the great city of New York goes withou
saying, He has the ability and honesty to
qualify him for any executive position.
His sound views on the tariff commend him
to the influential commercial classes of the
great metropolis. His conservative position
on the labor question ought to attract the
support of the labor element in opposition
to Mr.. GEORGES socialism. The business
interests and the labor interests of New
York ought to combine in his support. The
manufacturing mOnopolies will oppose him
and are expected to. But their opposition
will avail nothing except to make him
stronger with the people, 1t was wise
thought that suggested ABRAM HEwITT's
nomination.

COOPERATIVE INSURANCE.

A. r. McGILL, as insurance commits
sioner, and in behalf of the rich corpora
tons controlling life Insurance. in one or
more OF his annual reports recommended
that all cooperative insurance companies
should be prohibited from doing business in
this state. These cooperative insur-
ance companies are gotten up in the in
terest of the poor. whereby poor man can
carry insurance for the benefit of his wife
and children at small cost. Can the
Masons, Knights of Pythias, Knights of
Labor and commercial travellers afford to
vote for man who will do all he can to
break up their companies and force them to
insure in the regular companies at four
times the cost? 1t is clearly the duty OF
persons holding policies in cooperative
companies to vote against McGILL. When
ever and wherever we get glimpse of the
ring candidate we find him tool in the
hands of monoplists. Down with him and
vote for AMEs, Minnesota's great Com
moner, who is always found on the side OF
the weak, the poor and the down-trodden
of all races and nationalities.

SELECTING SUPERINTENDENT.

SELEClING SUI L En- DEN L 81
The method of selecting county superin-
tendentS of schools which is now being put
into effect in accordance with the legislative
enactment, with reference to Dakota
county, has several admirable features. 1t
is obviously an excellent thing to keep the
SUPPLEMENTARY of schools out of politics,
and it is equally manifest that the superin
tendent should be person satisfactory to
the people who are to be benefited by his
labors. The appointment being vested in
the state high school board, is perfOrce i'm
partial, and made Oh the merits of the diff
ferent applicants, but it would be next to
impossible for the board to act intelligently
upon names presented without local in
dorsement. The appointment of local
advisory board OvercOmeS this difficulty eX-
cellently. Such board is carefully Sc
lected from among the most prominent and
most capable citizens of the school
district, and by its members, 1t
is to be presumed, the various ap
plicants will be well known, with their
respective merits and dement's. The rec
ommendation of such board would thus
come nearer to conveying the sentiment of
the people in the matter, while the neces-
sity that every applicant should file with it
the evidence of his possession of the quail
fcations required by law would secure the
selection of none but competent men. The
state board making the appointment upon
such recommendations will act more intel
liuentIv and the neOnla will he much haitian
served than if the selection should be made
bllndly, without advice from those most
nearly concerned.

DETROIT, Oct. lS.-The promotion of Col.
0. B. Wilcox to be brigadier general, United
States army. is matter of special gratifca-
ton to Michigan, whose son he is, being born
in Detroit in 1928. He graduated at West
Point in 1S4S, and served through the Next
can war and in the regular service until 1854,
when he began the practice of iaT In this
city. On the outbreak of the rebellion he
offered his services and was appointed colonel
of the First Michigan infantry, the first West
ern regiment to reach Washington. He was
captured at Bull Run and imprisoned fifteen
months, but returned to serve with honor for
the rest of the war, being made brevet briga-
der general for gallant services at Spottsyl-
yania and Petersburg. After civil appoint
meuts in this city several years he re-entered
the army as colonel of the Twelfth United
States infantry.
