Phenomenal Success.

w aSnDurn Times.
Journalism has made rapid strides in the
past decade and not the least important in
results of these years of progress is that just
passed, and among the most striking examples
Of this development the st. Paul DAILY and
SUNDAY GLOBE stands prominently forth.
When but few years ago, the GLOBE, after
q labored and varied struggle for existence
for some years, was about to give up the fight
and turn up its toes, ii passed into the hands
of the present management, who being i'm
pressed with the necessity existing for an
able and fearless exponent of the principles
of modern Democracy in the Northwest, de-
termined that while striving to establish a
medium that would full meet the require
ments of the occasion, it would also give to
the world a newspaper that would reflect
credit on the quarter from which it emanated.
The result is the establishment upon basis
of sound and lasting prosperity of news
paper. the phenomenal success of which is a
wonder in the journalistic world. Starting
three years ago from obscurity, it to-day &C.
cupies the proud position of leading tue met
ropoitan journals of the Northwest.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. Dec. 30.-In Ham
ilton's trial at Wyandotte this morning,
William Vassen, one of the accused made
clean breast of it. swearing to the circum
stances of the wreckng of the train as they
have been published hitherto in the news
papers. He testified that Lloyd pulled the
spikes, aided by Newport. while Hamilton,
Vassen and others stood guard. Vassen
testified that he went to the Knights of
Labor hall in Kansas City, Kan, on the
night of April 25. A dozen others dropped
in during the evening to get any news of
the strike. About IL o'clock witness went
back a second time to the hall.
Hamilton was displaying himself to the
party in disguise of wig and clothes.
Lloyd said to the witness: Are you 60
ing with us Tonight" Witness asked
where. Lloyd replied Never mind
where; come and go with u.s." Soon after
all went down and took drink. Then
EIGHT OF THE PARTY,
Hamilton, Lloyd, Newport. Geers. Leary,
Riggs, Warner and the witness, set out to-
gether. The party separated in two squads
and repaired to the river, crossing over
the Sixth street bridge. Hamilton wearing
his disguise. When they reached the curve
on the railroad track, about 2 o'clock, they
halted and Lloyd began to pull up the
spikes Witness wanted them to go fur
ther along if they must do the job. He OBJ
jected to pulling the spikes on the curve for
fear it would kill the whole crew on the
train. Lloyd said: damn them, l
want to kill the whole crew." Ham
ilton aud Vassen then went further
north and mounted guard and Geers and
Leary went in the other direction. Riggs
and Warner in the meantime had deserted
them. Several Shots were fired at the
passing train from the bluff just before the
party set to work, and witness and Hamil-
ton wanted to give the thing up, but Lloyd
said it should go through. While witness
and Hamilton were standing guard, Lloyd
came up and said the thing was DONE
Newport then threw the crow-bar into the
river and the party scattered for home. and
witness went to bed. Witness saw Hamil-
ton day or two afterward and the latter
said: keep quiet; there are lots Of Pinker-
toms men around" The cross-eXanination
did not shake Vassen's testimony. His
appearance gave the impression that he had
been led into the plot rather against his
will, and had now made up his mind to tell
the whole story just as it occurred.

ties in the Bohemian diet have issued a

main away from the sittings of the diet
until they are given reliable assurance that
their just claims will be considered by their

INVESTIGATING MIR. WARNER.
Railroad Comm ssiOners Discuss a
Cnrn, I, a int sra inst r5,lAair Sec tn -

An executive session of the railway and
warehouse commissioners was held yesterday
to consider the complaints made to them
against ELS. Warner secretary of the commits
sion. 1t seems that certain omnibus company
'of Markato, Mr.. Warmers home, was granted
the exclusive right to send men down on
trains over the Omaha road with baggage
checks. Last spring a rival company was
started, and as it did not have the right and
could not get it, it got no business Mr..
Warner was asked to speak to Omaha officials
and secure equal privileges. AS a result OF
an Interview the first company was de-
prived of its right. That was ten months
ago. and now Mr.. Warner is accused by this
company with using his official dignity to the
advantage of rival corporation. Mr.. War
ner and an official of the Omaha road said
yesterday that Mr. Warner simply acted as a
private citizen IN the matter, and that his
connection with the railroad commission cut
no figure in the case. This was said en- the
outside to be part of scheme to nip the
budding prospects of Mr.. Warner for the
commssionership before they became dan
gerous to other parties.

LONDON, Dec. 30.-Rt Hon. Will
lam Henry Smith, secretary of war, is tc
take Lord Randolph ChurchilPs place as
leader of the Conservatives in the house of
commons. Lord Harrington, Joseph
Chamberlain and George Goschen had
conference to-day. They found them
selves equally averse to joining any coal
ition cabinet, and all three decided to sup
port the Conservative government.
The Marquis of Salisbury, after an inter-
view with Lord Harrington tomorrow, will
hold an informal council for the purpose of
rearranging the cabinet. There is not
whisper about Sir Michael Hieks-Beach
having resigned the office of chief secretary
of Ireland. and it is certain that at the
meeting of the cabinet the other ministers
cohcurred in his expressed decision to con-
tinue his present work. Sir Michael Hicks
Beach. i'll reply to an address presented by
deputatiOn of Ulster UnioniSts, to day
expressed the hope that he would be able
at the coming session of parliament to bring
before that body the suggestions OF the
deputation. The tenor of his remarks in
Dictated that he would remain in his present
position.
LORD HARTINGToN'S CONFERENCE
to-day with Mr.. Chamberlain and Mr.. Co
schen proved that the Radical Wing alliance
is unbroken. Mr.. Chamberlain's interview
with Lord Harrington lasted two hours.
Both men expressed the opinion that it would
be the wisest policy to maintain the Liberal
Unionists body independent. The refusal
of Lord Harrington to enter the cabinet
gratifies the Tories, who strongly objected
to the infusion of Liberal blood in the min
istry. A majority of the members of the
Carlton club preferred the return of Church
i'll, even at the cost of the submission of the
government. The efforts to reconcile Lord
Randolph promise better. Lord Rowton,
acting on behalf of Lord Salisbury, and Sir
Henry Drummond Wolff, for Lord Ran
dolph met at the Carlton club to-day. Lord
Randolph in the club denied he was moving
to effect reconciliation. but expressed his
willingness to entertain propositions if they
tended to strengthen the party. The eabi-
net ministers will go to Osborne to- morrow
to attend a council at which the question of
a further Propagation of parliament will be
discussed.
The Post continues to urge that the gov
eminent effect reconciliation with Lord
Randolph Churchill. 1t is reported that
the latter insists as condition of his re-
turn to the ministry. that the places of
Lord lddesleigh and Sir Richard Cross In
the cabinet be given to Mr.. Richie and Sir
Henry Holland.

TOWNSHIP SCHOOL SYSTEM.

Among a number of recommendations
agreed upon by the county superintendent,
at their recent convention in this city. to be
proposed to the legislature as amendments
TO the existing school laws. the most im-
pDrtant was that which asks change from
the district to the township system. This
recommendation was embodied in the last
biennial report of the state superintendent
of schools. That official presented in the
cIearest manner possible the benefits to be
derived from the proposed change. One
great drawback to the efficient working of
our school system has been a lack of cOncen-
tratIOn. 1t has been spread out too fiat.
The responsibility is divided up too much.
and among too many people. There is a
homely old prOveTb about too many cooks
spelling the broth which has an application
10 our common school system. The sys-
TEN needs to be reduced TO a system
in fact as well as in name. The proposed
township system is a move in that di-
rection. 1t will concentrate authority in
fewer hands and will result in looping off a
lot of useless officials who are more in the
way than serviceable. The tact is the
whole school law needs revising and the
whole school system needs remodelling, so
as to make it conform to the requirements
of modern progress. But as this work of
complete reconstruction is too great a task
to be undertaken by one legislature, with
its short session and a multitude of other
public matters engrosSing its attention, we
will have to be content to have educational
reform come in piecemeal. If the next leg
islature can be persuaded to substitute the
township system in place of the existing
slipshod district system, one important re-
form will have been gained and the friends
of progressive educational methods will
have cause for cOngratulatiOn.
