The veteran. Robert Hale, who used to be
railroad manager, and who thinks pretty near
a. much of laboring man as d Southern
planter used to think of slave, has been
kind enough to give the public the benefit of
his views on the strike. 1t is all the more
kind of him, because his views were not So
licted, and it was thoughtful, because he
knows how anything coming from him will be
appreciated. Well, Mr.. Hale is one of those
generous minded Republicans who would like
to see this strike turned to political account
against Mayor Ames, because the latter is Il
Democrat; so Mr.. Hale writes letter in
which he gives 1.-The views of the writer to
be, that unless an army Is called out 10 sup
press riot which does Lot exist, and to Quell
a disturbance which did not occur, the rail
road companies will have cause for action for
damages against the city. Mr.. Hales letter
will doubtless be framed and hung in the
mayors office for the perpetual guidance of
the Democrat who will be mayor of MInne-
apolis next year, when Mayor Ames shall be
busy vetoing legislative enactments in the
interest of the wheat ring.
~
More than one person is busily engaged in
talking up the suggestion that certain rail-
road companies may bring actions against
the city for damages on account of delaying
their trains. Some of these persons are brill
liant. even unto radiancy. Perhaps these
companies Will now ask damages because
the trains wont switch themselves. The only
reason now that the trains do not run, is be-
cause the companies will not pay their
switchmen what they consider living wages.
The men wont work, and the companies wont
or can't get men who will, so the trains are
not switched. There is no riot, no interfer-
ence, no trouble. For this state of affairs
these alarmists hold the city to blame and
the mayor to blame. Mayor Ames' plan is to
prevent trouble and arrest offenders; to COM
pei the railroads to raise the blockade by
agreement with their men; to reach this
agreement by means of arbitration, the plan
which is approved all over the country. If
arbitrators shall say the wages shall go up,
raise them; il they say they are already high
enough, keep them there; but in either case,
make the trains run and end this inconven-
fence and annoyance to the business OF the
city.

flowers had lastly been disposed ana mere
the board of lady directors held an
informal reception during the early part OF
the evening. The main dining hall mad Deen

The fact that the demand of the switchmen
was made through the Trades and Labor
assembly is an indication that it had the SYM
patty and Endorsement of the other trades OF
the city. 1t is, therefore, not to be wondered
at that the railroads and milers have found
it difhcult TO persuade their employees 10 take
the places of the switchmen. The millers
have found it difficult to get their men to do
switching for the mills, and at meeting OF
the different mill owners and the railroad
managers yesterday, this phase OF the situa-
ton was vigorously discussed. There was
some disagreement as to what could or should
be done under the circumstances, but all met
on a common ground in denouncing Mayor

How a woman Made Lawyer
Common lang hing Stock.

It is seldom that witness gets an oppor-
tunity of '.ge ting back" at browbeating
lawyer. but the district court yesterday was
the scene of an occurrence of this kind. The
case of Barabora E. Grant against the city
to recover damages for falling on detective
sidewalk vas on trial, and Mrs. Allen, wit
ness for the state. was called:
"Do you remember the talk we had in regard
to the case when | told you l was going to
have you subpeneed?'' asked Mr.. WEIGH, the
attorney for the plaintiff.
81 told you,' replied Mrs. Allen, ''that if
you did you would lose the case. and you SAID
that if you did not YOU would lose the case"
do you remember when we were talking
about the case once that you told Mr.. Grant
that was not good enough lawyer TO handle
the caseY' was the next question Mr.. WEIGH
fired at the woman, and the answer came
quick rs a flash:
'sYes. You told me that you were the best
lawyer in the state but as yet fail to see it.
You know that self-praise is half SANDER"
Mr.. WEIGH finally asked Mrs. Allen from

THE TICKET COMPLETED ID.
Democrats Make Good Nominations
..Various q Olitical Matters.

The Democratic county ticket is now COM
plete. While the committee took consdera-
BILE time IN the selection Of its men, the end
justified it all, and the ticket will the further
commend itself to the honest voters Of the
county. At the meeting yesterday the COM
mittee unanimously nominated Prof. William
j. Warren as the candidate for county super
intendent of schools. Prof. Warren is an
experienced and competent educator, and
man who stands high with all who know him.
He has never been prominent IN politics, and
has no partisan bias. In selecting him the
committee looked only to capabiity, and the
choice was good one. The vacancy on the
legislative ticket in the Thirteth district was
filled by the unanimous nomination of L. H.
Lucas. j. j. McHugh, who held the nomina-
ton, will remove from the state, on which
account he resigned. Mr.. Lucas, who will
undoubtedly be elected, is a young man OF
known common sense and liberal views, and
will make conservative representative. He
is sound on labor questions, and was indorsed
for the position by the Trades assembly. This
completes the ticket that will, it is confidently
believed, sweep Hennepin county on Nov. 2.

ALL SORTS.

This affair of the flags is becoming vastly
amusing to the Democrats, though the sober
Republicans fail to see where the laugh comes
in. They sit around in their headquarters,
and in council assembled deliberate how they
can make a boomerang of it. One of the
sachemS made this speech:
Here would have been pretty chance for
a play if our people hadn't been SO -
foolish. If we had never done anything of
the kind we might charge the Democrats with
all sorts OF things, but as we began this flag
business up at Fergus Falls we can't squeal
much. Then, there was the bad break that
Marden made in calling he Irish bOg-trotters.
That fool speech will cost us many Irish votes
in Minneapolis. especially as that -
GLOBE has recalled how we inSulted St. Pat
rick long time ago. That was another of
our fool breaks. Some of our fellows made
an effigy oil st. Patrick and strung potatoes
around his neck for beads. Of course it in
suited the Irish and the Catholics, too, and
they will all remember it now that it has been
raked up. Blame my eyes if L can see what
we are going to do

1.-The Democratic Ku-Kluxers have made a
descent upon u.s." they exclaimed. 1.-The

1T WOULD BE A CIRCUS"

The Republicans say Mayor Ames' admins
tration has been very bad in comparison with
the Pillsbury campaign. What was accom-
olished by the Pillsburys? George A. was
elected and the family at once went hunting.
They hunted and hunted and hunted. Yes,
they hunted two years, and what did they
find. All on earth they found was
a few blind pigs, and they
all had eyes. That told the
entire story Of the Pillsbury administration.
What was the difference? Mayor Ames had
wonderful executive ability and he attended
to the duties of the Office, and to-day this city
was the best governed Of any city in the West
under similar circumstances The speaker
closed with an appeal to the people to eject
a legislature which will not legislate against
the interests of the masses OF the people and
elect legislature that will send Eugene NJ.
Wilson to the United States senate.
MAYOR RICE
was given a glowing tribute as & large
hearted, noble citizen, who will care for the
interests of every citizen regardless of party,
creed or nationality. A. N. Merrck, of the
Fifth Ward club, gave an admirable speech,
in which the principal issues Of the campaign
were handled in a mastery and caustic man
ner. He was followed by Charles a. Ebert
and others.
