POLITICAL TRIPLES.

The Republican State league has APP
parently ''struck it rich,'' as far as
funds are concerned. 1t is rolling in
money. Its treasury is burdened with
surplus second only to that in the
government strong box and w. E. Lee,
of Long Prairie, finds his entire time
absorbed in filing out and mailing re-
ceipts for the amounts that come rolling
in upon him. The postal bill alone has
run up to the pleasing total OF
$l,5Q0. Such a surplus is the
result only OF taxation. Who is
being taxed? Whose pocket-book
is bleeding to furnish forth the sump-
penSeS of Col. Tim Byrnes? The recent
intimatiOn that an assessment had been
made upon list of prominent party
men, headed by Senator Sabin. was re-
ceived with such an Indignation chorus
that the only awaiting reason must come
from the outside. The money is for
warded and it is possible one of the
presidential candidates is the man.
Which one is it?
The statement has been made by an
evening paper, whose knowledge OF
politics is necessarily very limited, that
an effort is on foot to depose Orville
Rinehart, the chairman of the county
committee. 1t is almost too absurd to
require correction. With many Demo-
Gratis there is still a dislike of any andall
remnentS of the old Harrison hall wing,
but that wing has so dwindled and
shrunk that its influence amounts to
nothing. Rinehart belongs to this fac
ton and is close friend of Col. Glenn,
the arch c0nspirator. but Rine-
hart is a young man, and this
political. The committee itself does not
give satisfaction even to many of lits
members; but this is not on account of
its chairman, and the talk of move
ment to unseat him is the sheerest npn-
sense. Ed Glenn appointed the com
mittee, and Glenn is too shrewd manip-
ulatOr to constitute a committee of other
than his friends; but since its appoint
ment the course of events has changed
many of its members, and the astute
colonel is now in minority. In this re-
gard the feeling is very strong, and
Tuesdays meeting may be attended by
interesting developments.
The attitude and aspirations of the
gallant Glenn are freely discussed in
the party. 1t is the current belief that
he is friend and supporter of Loren
Fletcher, to whom he is under Obliga-
lions, and if this be true what little
strength is left him will rapidly melt
away. There are many who believe
Ames his election, though at that time
no one doubted his support of the
mayor. The present talk of sending
him to st. Louis is only laughed at as
ridiculous, though his lieutenants are
serious enough in their efforts.
~
Loren Fletcher evidently has things
shaped up to suit him, as he has gone
East, to be absent some weeks. Uncle
Loren has either great confidence OF no
hope.

OUR WATER.
Some Annual Statistics--The Mic
Ollet House Called Down.

At the meeting of the council COM
mittee on water works yesterday morn
ing Supervisor Matt Walsh submitted
his annual report, showing there are
now Ill miles and $685. feet of
water mains in the city, of which
80 miles were laid during the sea-
son of 1887. There are 10 miles and
1,461 feet to be laid this year, of which
$4,000 feet will be 36-inch pipe. There
are 1,412 fire hydrants, $50 of which
were put up last year. The West side
station pumped 5,669,54 1914 gallons of
water; the East side station, !, 234, 42O,-
736 gallons, and the temporary station
at Eighteenth avenue north, 23,95S, 1873
gallons during the past year.
Registrar Moody's report, showing the
financial condition of the department. is
as follows: balance Oh hand March,
SS7, S2S,942.54: water tax penalties,
19S, S94.35; sale of bonds, S310,200; re-
ransfer from general fund. $4,000;
money advanced to lay mains the COM
ing season, $2,4S1. Disbursements:
Loan to park commission, S25, 600; water
main extensions, 1886, 959.27; perma-
nent improvements, other than mains,
31,04l.5S; general running expenses,
SOS, OS9.35; North Minneapolis pumping
station, S14,220.9S: pipe, hydrants and
gates, 81, 946.46. The total eXpendi-
lures amount to 1869. 257.64, and the to-
tai receipts, $727. 696.22, which leaves a
balance of S15S, 1859 to the depart
ment's credit.
Mr.. Moody, in his report, recommends
reduction in water tax and that me-
tered water be sold for 10 cents thou
sand, the city to furnish meters and
charge nominal rent for the same.
The committee refused to annul the
order for a water main on Ninth avenue
south, from Twenty-eighth street to
Lake street. The pay of laborers on
the Nicollet island tunnel was increased
from $3.50 to S1.75 day. 1t was de-
cided that the wages of employees above
the grade of laborers shall be continued.
By a vote of the committee, water
meters were ordered put in at the Nicol-
let house, which has been a cOnsidera-
bic reduction in its water taxes upon
the supposjtion that the public was
given free access to it's lavatorial clos
cts. But recently the proprietor has
hung up For Guests Only' cards.

Poor People Shut Out of the High

Poor People Shut Out Of the High
SchooI---Free Text Book System.
AZ never will cease regretting that
$4,000 addition to the High school,"
said Prof. j. G. Moore. sit is natural
that in my position should encourage
the increase of educational facilities, but
don't look upon that addition in that
light. That sum of money would have
built and equipped a magnificent High
school for South Minneapolis, for in
stance. One central High school
in a city of this size is almost
a prohibition of or rather monopoly OF
the privilege of free higher education.
A poor man cannot really afford to send
his child there, especially if two lines of
cars are necessary and costs him 20
cents day. 1t is also next to impossi-
BILE for a pupil from the outskirts to
reach there by O'Clock in the morning.
In the high school system the idea is to
give free higher education to all, but
under our present system it is impossi-
BILE. Think of the East side, with 10000
population, having but nine pupils in
a year in the high school,"
On the subject of the city furnishing
text books to the schools, Prof. Moore is
aggressively in earnest. He has OBJ
tanned data from every important city
where this system obtains, and finds the
average cost per year per pupil is about
81; while the cost in Minneapolis, under
the present system, is about $500.
eff we were to establish this system"
he said, ''the first year would be a little
more expensive than the succeeding
ones but l am convinced the cost could
be brought down to &c. 900, which would
be about 81 year for every pupil en-
rolled. At the present time the text
books in the High school cost in the
neighborhood of $13 year for each pu-
poor but ambitious child, and it should
be removed. We will come to the free
system finally"
Prof. Moore is thinking of European
trip this summer.

tition of Canadian roads. The princi-
pal feature is that no United States rail
road shall charge more for local freight
than their share of the rates charged on
the Canadian freight they have re-
ceived. This, it is thought, will effectu-
ally prevent the present injuri-
GUS competition. The commission has
suggested to the committees that some
fast freight was taken from the juris-
diction of the commission by being
turned over to the express companies
and handled as express matter. At New
York, express trains disconnected from
the passenger and mail service, are
made up and sent westward: The line
between express matter and freight has
never been defined clearly by the law,
and evasions are possible. A bill now
in the hands of the committee provides
for the control by the commission of ex-
press companies, pipe lines and other
forms. of special service.

claim He is a "Fence."

William NJ. Belcher, formerly en-
ployed by the Western Union Telegraph
company, was yesterday held to the
grand jury upon the charge of stealing
wire, and A. Isaacs, who runs scrap
iron and Junk shop emporium, who pur-
chased the wire, was held in $700 for
examination to-day upon the charge of
receiving stolen goods. The police
claim he has been in the habit of buying
stolen goods, and the Manitoba railroad
will also prosecute him. Isaacs is a
man who is said to be worth $4,000, who
has his place of business on Third ave
nue. north, between First and Second
streets.

Sl7-rate against its allowed differential
rate of $40. The company alleges that
charge on it's vestibule train to Boston,
although it charges 81 extra on this train

A Propeller's Narrow Escape.

CHICAGO, April 19.-The propeller
Menominee, from Milwaukee, nearly
foundered in mid lake to-day with a
heavy load of passengers aboard. About
opposite Gross Point the fues sud
denly broke down and the water
began to rush into the vessel. The
passengers heard the alarm and
scenes bordering on the panicky en-
sued. A perfect gale was blowing, and
the waves dashed high against the YES
sci as she lay helpless. The fires in the
engines were put out. Two hours hard
work by the crew finally got the pro-
peller started again, and she reached
here tonight safely with her badly
scared passengers.
