THE TWIN CITIES, RACES


There is every Indication that the races
to be held the remainder of this week and
on Monday of next week at the fair grounds
under the auspices of the Twin Cities
Driving club. will be enjoyable in every
respect, The entries and purses offered
are of character to lift the races far
above the commonplace. With S14. 900 in
prizes. and such entries as Wilkes,
Johnston and Phyllis, the lovers of
the sport should certainly be salts
fed. Minnesota, it has been DEM
onstrated, possesses the conditions neces-
sary for the raising of fine stock, whether
horses or cattle. and such races as these
about to take place are just what encour-
age the development of the finer grades of
horset1esh. 1t is sure conclusion that
whoever goes out to witness the races will
feel amply repaid, and there is little doubt
but that the number of visitors will
be in accordance with their merit. In the
crowds which are naturally attracted by
occasions of this kind there will be. of
course, many thieves and gamblers. They
seem to be natural concomitants of everv
large concourSe. On this occasion, by act
ing promptly and with foresight. the proper
authorities can either break up or prevent
the practice OF these nefarious callings and
many scores Of people who would other
wise be plundered viii no doubt rise I'm
and call them blessed.

only the counsel employed and paid by the
government should be allowed to appear.
The report then treats at great length Of the
subject of the power of the government to
institute patent suits and the sufficiency of
the reasons for ordering the pending suit. 1t
says: Surely, If the government could with
any show of propriety intervene to try the
validity of a patent for egg carriers, or for
placing enameed letters on glass, or for an
elastic paint against private individuals, as
was done under the administration of Presi-
dent Grant, it might justly be called upon to
try its strength with giant like the Bell Tel
ephone and the Western Union Telegraph
companies combined. when the question to
be tried was the right of this combination to
APPROPRIATE THE ELECTRICAL CURRENT
to its exclusive use, to cripple the inventive
genius of the country and to collect millions
of dollars every year from the people of the
United States by compelling them to pay ex-
tortionate rates for the use of that which it
was alleged did not belong to these two COM
panies but had been purloined from the right
full owner. The solicitor general and the
secretary of the interior. says the report
made no mistake when they made provision
for having the legality of Bell patents jul
dicially Investigated. The suit could not re-
suit to the benefit of the Pan Electric Tele-
phone company as many inventions preceded
that OF Rogers. The effect would be to
throw the market open to all companies. All
would probably do something; the one having
the best instruments and being best managed
would probably have the greatest degree of
success. In conclusion the report says:
1.-The committee does find that there was suf-
ficient reason and authority for bringing the
suits but it expressly refrains from attempt
ing to find whether the Bell patents were OBJ
tanned fraudulently or whether Bell was the
inventor Of the speaking telephone

WASHINGTON, June 30.-Congress hay
ing failed to pass the legislative, executive
and judicial appropriation bill before the
beginning of the fiscal year to which it is to
apply the executive departments will open
tomorrow morning without funds for the
payment of any of their employees Under
the provision of law which forbids anv de-
partnent to eypend money III any fiscal
year in excess of appropriations or to in
volye the government in any contract for
the future payment of money in excess of
appropriations it is questionable whether
the heads OF departments have the right to
accept the services of their employees with
any understanding that they are to be com
pensated when the appropriations shall be
made. However, under the accepted legal
theory that in general contracts there
are no fractions OF day. it is held that no
embarrassment will follow the failure to
pass the bill if the senate, as it probably
will, shall tomorrow take np and pass the
emergency resolution passed by the house
to-day, extending the appropriations of
last year temporarily. In this event if the
president approves the resolution it will
bear date of July and will cover services
rendered that day and thereafter until its
term expires.

WASHINGTON, June 3O.-The wonderful
capacity of Signal Officer Hazen for blum
dering is displayed again. He wanted an
appropriation for Il new building for the
signal service observers at Mt. Washington,
and having learned that if ali amendment
of that kind was offered to the sundry civil
bill it would be subjected to point of order
OH the ground that it was new legislation,
he wrote a letter to Representative Gal
hnger of New Hampshire, suggesting that
the rules could be evaded by ask
Ing that tine appropriation be made
for repairs" 5" Gallinger thoughtlessly
exposed the trick by having the letter
read from the clerks desk to get before the
house the opinion of Gen. Hazen that a
new building was necessary for the good Of
the service, and i'll the interest of human
ity. Mr. Randall Immediately called the
attention Of the house to the conduct of
Gen. HaZen III counseling member to
eyade the rules. Then, with severity of
manner, be said that if Hazen would at
tend to the business of the signal Office
properly instead of writing letters and per-
petuating quarreis he would do a great
deal better for the government, and do
more credit to the administration. Reed of
Maine, and some others urged that the ap-
preparation be made in the interest of hui
manity to the signal men, but Gen. Hazen
had defeated his own scheme by the under
hand method by which he sought to accom-
pliSh it.

NEW ORLEANS, La, June 3O.-The most
distressing stories come from the Red river
district of the damage inflicted there by the
heavy rain storms that have prevailed during
this month. In Cothaula parish the rain con-
tinued three days, flooding the creeks de-
stroying the crops and washing away even
the soil, which in that section is very thin.
Great damage was also done in tha
southern portion of Rapids, on Spring
creek and Calcasteu river and in th1
neIghbofing parish of Grant. 1t is esti-
mated that $50 people are in need of relief
in Rapids, 1.2O0 in Grant, and 700 in
Calcasteu. tFhe matter has been called to
to the attention of congress and of the
legislature. Gov. McEnery has issued q
proclamation to-day calling attention to this
distress. and asking subscriptions of pro-
visions for the sufferers. The legislature
will vote an appropriation for their relief

giver and underestimated the rest of the

The papers did not feel like giving up every
thing and printing Mr.. Jones sermons in
full.
He was not overpleased with the manner
in which a certain paper handled the camp
meeting, and did not hesitate to say that he
thought it was written up in too worldly a
way. He intimated that the accounts partoo k
largely of the style of a horse race descrip-
ton, why" continued Mr.. Jones, "I will
not be surprised any morning to read in the
paper an account of the camp meeting be-
ginning something after the following: Sam

one of the healthiest places in the United
States and in the world, and yet on every
block l see that the best residences, on an
average, are owned by physicians. That
would certainly indicate that the doctors have
practice of some kind. And if it is such a
healthy place why, of course, the doctors
make their money in real estate speculations
Well, all have got to say is that 1 never saw
so many doctors who had made successful in
vestments in real estate as in st. Paul.
