Making q Test Case.

CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-Officer Dudley. of
the Humane society, to-day inspected
the horses OF the North Side Street rail-
way and found that less than - per
cent of them were in fit condition to
work. No horses have been bought bv
the Yerkes syndicate for a long time,
the intention being to make the present
stock last until the system is cabled.
Officer Dudley forbade the company
sending out number of particularly
sorry beasts, but tonight found that his
injunction had not been needed. He
caused the arrest of a driver, S. A.
Sholl, to make a test case. ShOll was
driving horse that was fearfully sway
backed. The car with nine passengers
in it was left standing in the street.

NEEDHAM AND GRIFFIN.
Articles Signed Last Night for a
Fight to Finish.

Dannie Needham, of st. Paul, and
Jimmy Griffin, who came to this city
from Michigan, have signed articles for
a fight to a finish. Accompanied by
their hackers, they came to the GLOBE
office and made deposits of $50 each.
The articles call for skin gloves and will
be for 500 side, purse of $500 and
the lightweight championship of the
Northwest, the winner to take all. The
be within 200 miles of st. Paul, to come
off within month.
Needham will begin training to-day
under Pat Killen. He says his hand is
almost recovered. Griffin has never
been seen in the ring in st. Paul. He
is apparently few pounds heavier
than Needham and has husky look.

NATURES WAY.

1t looked like rain. the air was damp,
The sky was drear and black.
A young man gazed from his window height,
And thought, Unjust hire a hack?
oh, hope the rain will not come onr'
He cried, in accents meek,
''For can't afford an opera rig
On four small dollars per week."
One hundred miles from this scene or less
A farmer stood at his door.
And as he looked on the wthered fields
He was hoping the rain would pour.
For the heat had blighted the summer crop,
And the ground was parched and dry;
And the FLOWERS that bloomed in the spring,
ira la
Had died with the ''rock and rye"
And Nature looked down on the dude and
swain,
And reasoning thus, she said
''Will take from the dude his -four per
week
Or the poor swain's daily bread?''
And. musing upon this curious case,
To solve which she was 10th,
She quietly flew to the water tank.
And turned the hose on both.

THE SERENADE.

The midnight is not more bewildering
To her drowsed eyes than to her ears the
sound
OF dim, sweet singing voices, interwound
With purl of flute and subtle twang of string,
Strained through the lattice, where the roses
cling,
And with their fragrance~yaft the notes
around
Her haunted senses. Thirsting beyond
bound
of her slow-yielding dreams, the Tilt and
swing
OF the mysterious, delirious tune
She drains like some strange opiate, with
awed eyes
Upraised against her easement, where.
aSwoon,
The stars fail from her sight, and I'D the
skies
OF alien azure rolls the full round moon
Like some vast bubble blown of summer
noon.

A NEW YEAR WISH.

A strange and quaint old saying
From country across the sea,
In idle. aimless straying,
Finds its way at last to me.
''In far-off, vine-clad valley
Sturdy, fair-haired peasants dwell,
Who haste in swirlIng rally
AT sound of the midnight bell,
Which tolls when the old year, dying,
Fades swiftly away from earth;
Then rings in gladstone crying
Its joys for the new years birth.
And he who shall hear its pealing
May wish for his friend or foe
A blessing or curse; swift stealing
Twill fall ere the twelfth month fiow"
pause in my saddened musing
If we two-dear heart and l.
A blessing may gain, thus choosing,
Fate surely will not deny,
And this be our wish: Together,
May orr days contented lie,
With no more of heart-gloom weather
Than will brighter make loves own sky

STRIKES ARE COSTLY.

When YOU read about the Inaugural
ton of strikes has it ever occurred to
you to give thought to the aggregate
amount of wages lost by employees. and
profits lost by employers during the con-
tinuance of strikes? Probably not. You
may then read with interest the result
of investigations made of the subject by
Commissioner WRIGHT, of the labor
bureau.
In six years there have been 3,903
strikes, involving - $50 establishments.
The number of employees involved in
these strikes was 1,31S,624, and the in
veStigation shows there were 25,79S
fewer wOrkmen employed after than
before the strikes. Wage disputes were
the cause of half the strikes, and sue
cess was the result in 60 per cent of the
whole number. The average duration
of each strike was twenty-three days.
Now for the question of wages lost.
You may well prepare to be surprised.
There was total loss to the wOrkmen
in the six years of S60,0OO.000 and the
employers of S34,000.000. Isn't the
grand total astounding? These figures
simply support the GLOBES ott-re-
peated declarations that strikes do not
pay, even if they are successful. In
that case the chances are that the losses
during the period of idleneSS far cOun-
terbalance any gain that may be Sc
cured. The strike as a means of set
Ting labor difficulties is well nigh
played out. Even those who have hith-
ertO been most strongly in favor of
them begin to see that they cost more
than they come to.
The only rational way to come to an
amicable understanding regarding ques-
tons at issue is by arbitration, and we
trust that its growth in the favor of en-
ployeS and employers will be such that
when Commissioner WRIGHT comes to
make another investigation he will find
the number of strikes to be so small as
to be really insignificant.

DAKOTA's POLITICALFUTURE.

The Boston Herald, which is journal
thoroughly unbiased by party consider
atiOnS, calls the attention of politicians
to the fact that they lack far-sighted-
ness in obstinately clinging to the idea
that Dakota is irrevocably devoted to
the Republican party. Dakota will be
an agricultural state, just as she is
farming territory. She will take even
less interest in manufacturing than
Minnesota, since her mission is to main
tain her reputation and usefulness as
the granary of the country. In COM
mon, then, with every other agricult-
ural community, Dakota will continue
to favor in the future when she becomes
state, as she has in the past as terri
tory, low tariff.
In fact, as her agricultural resources
are further developed she will become
even more intense in her advocacy of
low tariff ideas. Though by a con-
stantly decreasing margin she is
Republican now, and will probably con-
tinue to be so at first when she
acquires statehood, her opposition to
high tariff theories will lead her farther
and farther away from the Republican
party, just as that party has been weak
ened in Minnesota. And should ultra
protectiOnists like Mr.. BLAINE and his
school succeed in making their high
tariff views the basis upon which the
Republican party shall found its arti-
cles of faith, no one need be surprised
to see Dakota swing over to where she
rightly belongs, to the Democratic side.
Allegiance to party which is retained
simply through sentiment will not be
likely to be the controlling spirit of hard
headed men who see, also, that it in
wolves the payment, uselessly, of good
portion of their hard earnings.
