MINNEAPOLIS EVENTS.
The People of the City Evidently Opposed

There is not from present indications the
slightest probability that the legislature VIII
be induced to thrust upon this city the use
less and obnoxious machinery OF ponce
commission. There is no evidence that the
people of the city desire such commission,
while on the other hand there is every reason
to believe the measure would be hlghly un-
satisfactory, especiallr as the belief is preVa-
lent that the present movement Is MOI
only partisan, but ariStOcratic. A gooo
measure and d wise one could just as well De
inaugurated and carried out i'll the broao
day light, and the people will be naturally
suspicious Of any scheme that IS Illuminated
in the dark. as this one was. 1t is the popu-
Lar sentiment that this police commission
scheme is Il direct blow at the power oI
Mayor Am, S. and that it is made to prevent
the impending loss Of Republican
control in Minneapolis. Since the close OF
the late memorable campaign. it has Deen
quietly talked about as the intention OF the
Republicans to kill off AmeS and capture
the CITY government if at all possible, ana
the police commission scheme is believed TO
be the first step. TIC gerrymander the wards
was another, though it has apparently beeu
dropped. 1t WAS evident to those hgurers
that it was about impossible to create twelve
wards without giving the Democrats seven OF
them: they talked of reducing the number OF
aldermen to two in each ward, but their
argument for better representation lost its
force al once, when they proposed 10 nave
twelve wards with only as many aldermen as
at present.
The police commission is the child of Re-
publican secret caucus, of which c. W. john
son and A. b. Nettleton were the head and
front The Repubcansm was fimsily yelled
under the term "non-partiSan," and 1T de-
ceived nobody, not even when several Demo-
Gratis were admitted. because these three or
four Democrats are not in sympathy with the
party in Minneapolis, took no part or interest
in the late CamDniUD. and Demo-
Gratis only because of family tradi-
items dimly connected with Andrew Jack
son. The secret conclave gave birth to
the police commission scheme and then, in
the board OF trade, these Identical men in
dorse themselves and their plans. The seven
or eight board of trade men, while excel ent
gentlemen, do not entirely control or repre-
sent the $50, 0GO people of Minneapolis what
ever their own ideas on the subject may be.
There are hundreds of men in the city who
have seen the operation OF a police commits
sion elsewhere and will strenuously oppose
any such experiment here.

The fire in the Sly Paint works reminds me
of quite an interesting episode which occurred
recently. Herman Westphal, the eccentric
ice dealer. called on Mr.. Sly. Carpenters had
been engaged for few days in making GER
tain repairs and alterations in the establish
ment, and chips, broken boards and debris
lay around in disorder.
''What means all this hokus-pokus bust
ness?'' quered Westphal.
''Why, hadn't you heard?" replied Mr.. Sly.
1--WE had an explosion. No one was hurt,
however,
Westphal took it all in creduously, and Sly
took occasion to post his engineer. Presently
the engineer came tearing up stairs shouting:
Look out, she is going again. Fly for your
Efe.'
Terror stricken Westphal darted for the
front door, while Sly ran to the rear door.
Westphal had trouble in opening the door in
his fear and excitement, and his Hoboken ex-
CARNATIONS came near calling out the fire de-
partment. Finally explanat .ons were made
and the cigars were on the ice man.

Mayor Ames and Col. Glenn were the only

ing, when a large number of small bills were
allowed and applications for rebates for water
taxes considered. The usual number of petit
lions were referred TO the various committees.
The committee on claims reported in favor Of

. statement of the cost of pipe laying and &C
count of pay roll for the months of Septem-
her. October and November. amounting to
g. GAG O9, and one for labor and material
amounting to S7,014.S2. The report showed

was drawn for STA in favor of John Burns
for raising the roof of the West side pumping
eTation. The total cost of the work was ST.
Ar of which Mr.. Burns had already been
Maid s.. $50. The engineer reported that he
had tested the new pipe at Twentieth avenue
north and had found 1t perfectly satisfactory.
After granting Supt. Henlon leave of absence

changes are already announced. The choir
of ST. Marks will be entirely reorganiZed, the
organist being the only member of the pres

the soprano, will begin singing in the
Plymouth church soon after New Years; Prof.
Porter will be the new basso at st. Marks
Mrs. Cassday has resigned her position in the
choir of Westminster. but the vacancy is not
yet filled. The new First Baptist church will
have a quartette and chorus choir under the
direction of Prof. Patten, who is now the
tenor of st. Marks. Prof. Porter and Prof
Proctor have been invited TO participate in
concert at Saltwater on New Years night.
Other engagements will probably prevent
Prof ProctOrs acceptance.
