Ex-Speaker Randall Is Danger

Sanguine Of Recovery.

Ex-SDeaker Randall Is Danger
ously Ill, but His Physicians Are
Sanguine of Recovery.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. July 14.-Dr. Lincoln
said this morning that tn lie hemorrhages
which Mr.. Randall had yesterday were
slight, and were what might be ex-
pected at this stage of progress. He
said the henorrhages were not alarm
ing in themselves, but that danger to
be apprehsnded was the recurrence of
large hemOrrhages. For the first time
last evening it was possible to make an
examination, and they found the con-
ditions somewhat different from what
they had expected. The operation that
had been performed previous to the
present attack was only slight one,
and MI. Randall thought it had been of
benefit to him. The present treatment
was in the nature of the massage treat
ment and was believed to be proving
beneficial. AT 10 o'clock Drs. MalIan
and Lincoln went into consultation, re-
manning with the patient for an hour.
An examination was made and a power
ful astrlngent was applied to check the
bleeding and prevent recurrence. AS
he left the house, DR.. Lincoln said that
Mr.. Randall was little brighter and
they had just made an application
which they hoped would prevent bleed
ing for awhile. 1t was one of those
cases where there was
DANGER OF STUBBORN BLEEDING

TO say that they had checked it for
awhile. Great uneaSineSS is felt by Mr..
RandalPs family, and anxious inquiries
are made by his associates in the house.

they say his recovery will be only
matter OF time, but there is always dan
ger of the hemorrhages starting again,
and he is too weak to stand much more
loss of blood. Mr.. Randall, after quite
long sleep, awoke just before three
O'Clock and partook of some liquid nour--
lsllhment, which he retained. DR..

TO ENCOURAGE UNITY.
An Increase in the Appropriation
for a Public Building at Salt
Lake CITY Recommended

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 14.-Repre-
sentative Bankhead, of Alabama, to-day
reported favorably from the committee
ON public buildings and grounds the
senate bill for the erection of public
building at Salt Lake City, Utah, with
an amendment increasing the appropri-
alton for the purpose from $4,000 to
100000. In submitting its report on
this bill, the committee says 1--WE are as
sured ON all sides that, without distinc-
ton of classes or creeds, the people of
Utah are working together for the ad-
vancement of their material interests,
and that the discussions which once ex-
listed are rapidly giving place to good
feeling. 1t is desirable to encourage
this disposition, and especially while
the government is enforcing vigorously
the laws against one class of the people,
to show by its liberality and expenditure
in the erection of public building, that
it has the material interests of all at
heart"

THIS YEARS ASSESSMENT.

How we grow. The story of the city's
growth as told by the new directory fig
ures, which appeared in the GLOBE a
few days ago, is confirmed by the as
sessment figures, which appear in to-
days issue of this paper. One year ago
the total valuation of real and personal
property was s94, 100000, a total which
almost startled our own peOple-being,
as it was, a great increase over the fig
ures of all preceding years. This year
the tax rate was reduced one-Sixth of
mill, and yet in spite of that fact the
total assessed valuation of property in
this city reaches the enormous amount
of 1925, 0G0,9 900, an increase of $31 ,000, 600
over last years assessment, as will be
seen by reference to the statements fur
nished from the county auditors Office
and which are published in another
column.
No more satisfactory evidence Of the
established prosperity of this city, nor
of its future expansion and increase in
wealth, could be adduced than is
furnished by this years assessment
books. Where is there another city of
the size and population of st. Paul
which in one year can show an increase
in its property valuation of 30 per cent?
And then when it is remembered that
the assessed valuation for taxable
purposes only represents about one-half
the cash valuation, and then take into
consideration the figures of the new
directory and the figures of the last as
sessment, we find that we have here a
city with 100000 population and a
| property valuation of S250,000,000. If
we are sometimes reproached for it..
haven't we just reason for the exalted
pride we have in our city?

FAIR AND REASONABLE.
Capt. Henry's Opinion Of Price.
Paid for Timber on Indiar
lands


Lands.
WASHINGTON, July 14.-Capt. Charles
FL. Henry, of Chippewa Falls, Wis,
was examined by the senate committee
on Indian tradeships to-day. He was
questioned concerning contracts he
made with the Indians for the purchase
of timber. He said he regarded the
prices paid for the timber as fair and
reasonable, and all he could afford to
pay. Mr.. Gregory, the government
agent, had shown no partiality toward
him while making contracts. By reason
of conditions affecting the timber, that
upon the Ceur d 'Oreille reservation was
not worth quite SO much last year as it
was in previous years. Assuming that
he could get 81 per thousand for lumber
cut from the Flambeau reservation last
winter, his profit was only about 33
cents per thousand feet. Although the
commissioners order to cease cutting
timber was issued on March ID, witness
did not cease cutting until the oath.
He did not employ any extra force after
he heard OF the order to quit cutting.
1t was further developed by the testi-
mony of Capt. Henry that he paid 81
cents per thousand more to the Indians
than other contractors. The formal
contracts sent to the department for APP
prevail mentioned s. or So per thousand
as the price for stumpage, but the actual
price was governed by personal con-
tracts with the Indians for g and S2.5
per thousand. He testified that con-
tracts are now being sought and made
for the next season with Indians who
have not yet received their aIIotments,
and with some whose title to an allot-
ment is questionable. Half-breeds. who
were not on the reservation before,
have been tempted to come there by
reason of this system of making allot-
ments, and some of them have received
contracts. The committee adjourned
till Monday, pending further examina-
ton of Capt. Henry.

example should be universally followed.
Fair woman should make fashion a
means to an end, not the end itself.
And that end should be the arraying of
herself in the most becoming manner
possible. If she is satisfied that she
looks better with hustle, by all means

her discard it at once, Notwithstanding

In monarchal countries, fashion takes

in this country there is no source
whence such arbitrary dictation may
come.

THE DUELLO.

The FLOQUET-BoULANG sword en-
counter will probably have bad moral
effect, in that it will have tendency to
revive dueling as the popular method
for settling private quarrels and per-
sonal differences. In France, more
than in any other country, the dueIlo
has had recognition as the honorable
mode of adjusting personal disputes,
but in recent years there has been an
evident disposition on the part of the
French people to fall into line with the
thought and opinion of our nineteenth
century civilization in condemning
dueling as practice only appro-
pirate to the barbaric ages of
the past. Public opinion on this
side of the water had grown to
be so strongly denunciatory of the
barbarous practice that it is becoming
well nigh obsolete. In sections of the
country where dueling was popular a
little over a quarter of century ago, it
is not only now defined by law to be a
crime on a grade with murder, but the
laws are SO strictly enforced that the
duelist has come to be regarded as a
criminal of the WorSttype. The influence
Of our pronounced anti-dueling senti-
ment has had wholesome effect on
European civilization. Our views and
opinions on the subject were being rap
idly adopted in all European countries,
and nowhere was there more radical
change of public sentiment with regard
to dueling than in France. 1t is singu-
larly unfortunate, then, that the barba-
rous practice shonld have been re
yived at this time by two Frenchmen
of such conspicuous eminence. AS we
have stated, there are reasons to fear
that the moral effect will be bad, not
only in France, but here in our own
country as well. The positions occupied
by FLoQUET and BoULANGER rehabili-
late the duello with responsibility
which it had ceased to wear. If the
prime minister of the French republic
and the great popular leader of the
French people think it an honorable
way to settle private quarrel by rum
ming their swords through each other, as
matter of course people occupying less
dignified stations will fail to detect
any dishonor in the duellO. The
only hopeful sign we can see by
which the demoralizing effect of

marked, with an air of indifference as
to whether or no there was to be an op-
ponent against him.
: "Dunnell's greatest DANGER" said one
who saw him, sis something that no
one perceives. He and his friends
count at present more upon the presi-
dental year electing him than anything
else. They forget that Harrison and
Morton have caused no tidal wave of
enthusiasm in Minnesota, a nd that in
stead of their carrying state and con-
gressiQnal tickets through here, the
latter must help them. This one great
advantage of previous contests is lacking
this year."

BoULANGER's reckless folly may
result in his political debasement. In
that event his downfall will be accepted
as determination on the part Of the
French people to forever set the seal of
condemnation on the barbarous practice
of dueling. In this instance BOU-
LANCER was the challenger, and provi-
dentially the sufferer, provided the

French sentiment more determinedly
than ever in opposition to the practice
