THE BOARD DOES 1T.
Everything Fixed for a Police Conn
mission for minneapolis.

EVeTYIhEnS OF a FOI1Ce COm-
mission for minneapolis.
About q dozen members of the board of
trade met last night and decided that the city
should have a police commission; not only
this but decided just how the board should
be composed and how appointed. The idea
was incorrectly circulated that the meeting
was to have been public and open, whereas it
was only board meeting, adjourned from
Monday, to complete the work begun. Judge
BaSsett opposed the idea and in his argument
knocked out the entire board. while Aid.
L'Herault, when called on, walked roughshod
over the ruins. When it adjourned on Mon
day. the board had decid ed that the people
should have police commission of five MEM
bers, of whom no two should belong to the
same political party; the only point unfinished
was how they should be appointed.
There were those who favored their appoint
ment by the governor, by the mayor and By
the judges of the district court, each of
which plans had its friends. Gov. Pillsbury
read tabulated plan, showing the systems
in vogue in other cities, and ]. 7. Wylnan
talked about the necessity for good govern
ment. Judge Bassett said he did not care
enough for political parties to walk across
the roc N for either, but he believed in having
the appointments made in such manner that
If unsatisfactory the people could speedily
get back at the appointing power through
the polls. Finally it was decided that the
Judges should do the appointing. This prac-
tically ends il, as far as the board is con-
cerned, except that the committee will report
n bill containing these provisions.
SOME SENTIMENTS.
What some of the members said, crystal
t;zed. would be as follows:
7 B. Bassett-It would be ridiculous to ask
for q police commission until we decide just
what its duties shall be. How would it strike
Won to have a commission appointed under a
law which would give them duties that we
did not intend? So far as ] know, the various
forces of police have been quite fhcient,
though there may have been mayor or so
Uho has not done all he might have done.
How would it do to elect the mayor every
wear. and then if we did not like him we
could fire him out.
l. T. Wyman-Four men are better than
one. and / want TO see q commission COM
Dosed of four men. They will be less liable
TO be wrong. Under commission we will
have no more of this making foot ball of
The police force.
John DeLaittre-The very reason why the
,,olice commissioners should be appointed by
the Judges is because the judges are the ex-
moments of the law and order we are aim
ing at.
Aid. L'Herault-I fail to see where any
.ood will be accomplished by such commits
sios, as YOU propose. 1t would merely create
new Offices for somebody to fill. If you must
have a commission, make the commissioners
elected by and responsible to the people. 1t
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1886-12-15

is better. however, to allow the mayor to ap
point the police force, and you then have q
responsible head.
John DeLaittre-It isn't going to hurt four
judges to appoint one police commissioner
every year.
II. A. Towne-I am still in favor of the ap-
pointment by the judges, and do not think it
Will degrade their Office.
MORE IMPORTANT MATTER
was brought upwhen, at the conclusion of
this comparison movement, Gov. Pillsbury
said there should be a change in the street
commissioner system. He inveigbed against
the miserable streets at present and believed
the mayor should have more authority in this
direction. A. B. Barton suggested a board
of public works and John De Laittre backed
up all that had been said and favored more
metropolitan plan. The matter was finally
referred for report and recommendation.

THE RINK DID NOT PAY,
And the Lessees RelinQ uished Pos
session al n Cost Of S62S.

The case of Hans c. Peterson against John
Speedy and John c. Barton, to recover
81, $3.50, was tried before Judge Young yes
terdaY, and decision awarding the plaintiff
1928 returned, The case had its origin in the
roller-skating fever, which was epidemic here
last year. On Sept. 9, 1885, the defendants
rented OF Mr.. Peterson the Oak Lake skating
rink, with all the skates etc. They were to
have possession of the rink until June l, and
to pay for the use of it $l,700 in instruments
of $500. On Dec. 10 defendants wanted to
give up the rink, it not paying as well as they
had anticipated it would. This Mr.. Peterson
refused to allow them to do, unless he could
lease the premises to some one else. On this
condition the defendants were allowed to re-
linquish possession, but all the money Mr..
Peterson made out of it ND to June 1 was
SI00. He also alleged that the defendants
refused to pay for the skates that were
broken during the time they were in posses
sion of the rink

Very naturally the hide bound par tisans do not like the Presidents order discountenancing partisn work by of tice-holders. There is every reason why they should be mad about it. Some men are politicians for the sole purpose of getting into office and off cials for the sole purpose of manipula- ting politics. The Presidents order deprives them of one-half and the most important half of their occupation. If compelled to attend strictly to their duties as officials when they happen to be officials they will not be able to con vince anybody that they carry the poll tical fortune of bigger politicians than themselves In their pockets. If con- pelled to depend on their own merits as officials they are in danger of being superseded by better men than them selves. Viewed from any standpoint the Presidents order is sure to bring trouble to the mere spells politician. It will promote efficiency in the public service, however, and that is why the public indorses the order.

If the thirty million dollars worth of tin annually used in the United Sta teS could be found at home it would furnish employment for large number of people and an extensive capital. So far the tin used in this country is of foreign origin Extensive tin deposits have been discovered in the Black Hills of Dakota and the experiment is now to be made which is to determine whet- her 1t can be prOfi5ably worked on not. A large shipment Of the Dakota ore is now on the way to New York for re- duction. If the ore proves rich enough in tin to be worth working the supply is practically unlimited. The tin de- posits of the Black Hills, it is claimed, cover an area of more than seven thou sand square miles, The geological con dition IS said to be the same as that oi Cornwall and other tin districts. In a country that produces nearly all the minerals in greater abundance than an other the finding of extensive tin depo sits might naturally be looked for.

| The vast body of wasted water that has flooded the Santa Cruz valley dur ing the past ten days and found an out let through the Gila river into the Col orado, was sufficient, had 1t been pro perly saved by means of storage reser- voirs, to irrigate all the tillable land along that watercourse from the Sonora boundary line to its confluence with the Gila, embracing an area of rich and ar able land capable of producing not only su sufficient f rm products and fruits to supply all of Arizona, but an abun- dance for export A steady stream averaging two feet deep and half mile wide has passed over the surface of the ground, while the great subterranean flow must be immence The Santa Cruz drains a vast watershed, varying from ten to twenty miles on each side, with tributaries from the several mountain ranges. Natural sites are frequent for storage reservoirs, which require some considerable expenditure of money and skillful engineering to make them ser viceable. The rainfall has not been so excessive in any one locality that ordi- nary means of storage would not retain the water for future use and the impro- vident waste avoided. A season of su- persaturation followed by one of extre- me dryness, does not afford the farmer the favorable natural conditions he re- quires to successfully till the soil, and the one extreme is as disastrous as the other. The storage of water in Arizo- na for irrigation and other purposes, is a matter which the government should itself experiment with. Other politi- cal subdivisions of the country enjoy public favors in the way of appropria, tions for the improvement of rivers and harbors, and Arizona, with practically no such subjects for the enjoyment ot of the governments generosity, should receive its patronizing benefits in the equally important matter of providing means for the proper storage of the waters produced by the semi-annual rains. A system of reservoirs would bring many acres of now worthless government land into cultivation, and add to the aggregate wealth and pros perity of the whole country.-Tucson Citizen.

Senator Van Wyck, of Nebraska, who has been the bull in the Senate china shop for years, issued an appeal to the people of that state to secure him . reelection by expressing their preference for him at the polls in a man ner which the Legislature will heed. It appears that the constitution of Ne
 hraska provides for the taking of pop ular ballot on the choice of Senator when it is called for though it has not before been demanded. In some of the states it was formerly the practice of state conventions to nominate candi
 date for United States Senator, who was expected to be elected if his party secured a majority in the Legislature. Abraham Lincoln was so nominated by an illinois convention in 1858, and that led to his famous debates on the stump with Douglas, which did more than anything else to bring him to the front as candidate for President. It remains to be seen whether the people of Nebraska will regard any more favor ably than the Legislature would be likely to do the eccentic Van Wyek's claim to the privilege of stamping and roaring another six yearsin the Senate

The amount which Congress has been induced to appropriate this year for the construction of new navy is almost exactly equal to that which the Brit ish government paid last year for hir- ing merchant vessels at the time of the Russian war scare. We shall probably have something to show for our money; but England has less than nothing to show of hers, the chartered vessels hay ing done no service as cruisers, while they were withdrawn from the field in which they were useful.

As we predicted several weeks ago the Cutting affair has resolved itself into a matter of diplomatic correspon- dence. and 1t will be months before it is settled In the meantime Cutting will have to lay in filthy, unhealthy Mexican dungeon. This government should have made no demand for Cut
 ting until she knew she was right, and then backed the demand up with the Grmness and dignity becoming sush a government as ours. The undignifed and humiliating position occupied by eur government since Bayard made his peremptory demand is most gslling to Americans on the frontier, and it shows the depth of the administration. It reminds us very much of the fellow ~ho shoves in a pile of chips, for a bluff, ill 8 game of poker, and when he sees that some fellow is going to call him, he pulls back his chips, remark ing ''1 made mistake in my hand"

As stated in The Democrat last week, Superintendent Cheyney of the Toubs- tone Mill and Mining Companyreceived instructions from headquarters to sus- pend operations on or about the 10th instant. In accordance with these in structions, small detachments of men working outlying properties of the com- pany have been 'laid off from day to day during the past two weeks. In other words, the suspension Of opera tions has been accomplished gradually. The largest draft of men made at any one time was that of yesterday, when the "old reliable" Toughnut, which ha= been worked continuously ever since the discovery Of the camp, was closed down. The men thrown out of employ ment take the most cheerful view oI the situation possible; they are nearly all confident that the company will re sume operations in the near future, as they know the suspension is not due to any lack of mineral in the mines Tombstone Democrat.
