THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

Inc chamber OF commerce yesterday
morning adopted the report OF its COM
mittee to which the matter of a public
library was referred. Although the ma
jority in favor of the report was not SO
great as it should have been, it was
large enough to show conclusively the
sentiment of representative body of
st. Paul business men in matter of eX-
ceeding public Importance.
The report adopted was, in brief, that
the legislature empower the city to issue
bonds to the extent of S350,000, 500, 1000
to be devoted to the purchase OF site,
the rest for the building and equipping
of the library. Though there is no
doubt but that very creditable library
could be provided for much
smaller sum, yet judged by the liber-
atty of other cities in similar matters,
the amount contemplated is not eXorbi-
tant. Men should be sent to the next
legislature from Ramsey county who
are committed to the library project,
and who can be relied upon to carry out
the will of the people in the matter.
For the public library belongs peculiarly
to the people. 1t is their university.
They have from time to time given evil
dence of the favor with which they re-
gard the plan, and as they must pay the
cost, that evidence should be conclusive
Before another year rolls around st.
Paul should have public library which
will be a credit to the city and which
will adequately meet the wants of the
city'S people.

PoTsDAM, June 11.-Emperor Fred

Guilty in swallowing, which has troubled
him for past few days, has not en-
tirely disappeared. His appetite is

ing. DR.. Mackenzie, in the presence of
Drs. Wagner, Krause and Dardelben,
yesterday inserted a new silver canula.
The National Zeitung says: The in
Sertion of the canula in the emperor's
throat causes difficulty, because the
trachea has become so enlarged that the
tube no longer fills it completely, and
pus coming from the upper part can
thus flow into the air tubes. To prevent
this rubber ring has been fitted on the
canula so as to fill the space between
the tube and the wall of the trachea.
In order to remedy the dryness of the
throat arising from the difficulty in
swallowing the emperor takes frequent
sips, day and night, Of luke-warm milk
and whisky"

THE SURPLUS AGAIN.

AS common-sense people, endowed
with intelligence which enables them to
discriminate between right and wrong
more clearly than many of their fellows,
the people of the Northwest should keep
clearly in mind one issue, indeed, the
predominating issue, involved in the
campaign now upon us.
They know that there are piled I'D in
the national treasury S125,00O, 900. They
know that this vast accumulation is in
creasing at the rate of $50, 0OO, 900 a year.
They know that this is not only unbusi-
nesslike, but absolutely dangerous; that
it is decreasing the money of the coun-
try to an alarming degree, and is put
ting forward the temptation of reckless
extravaganza. They know that it ought
to be stopped.
They should remember that there is
but one way that it can be stopped
through the Democratic party. The
Republicans absolutely refuse to aid in
any manner to stop the accumulation
Of this surplus. On the other hand,
they want the accumulation, the result
OF unnecessary taxation, to go right on.
The resulting surplus they propose to
get rid OF by various schemes of reck-
less and extravaganza expenditure. The
Democrats, however, believe that the
national expenditures should be re-
duced wherever possible, and that the
people should have the benefit of this
economy by keeping the surplus in
their pockets.
This is the issue. Keep it clearly.in
mind. AS a fair-minded, intelligent
person, not blinded by partisan preju-
dice, can you do otherwise than favor
the Democratic policy?

CARNEGIE WILL CUT LOOSE.
After This Month His Big Mills

Labor Organizations.

PITTsBURG, June 1.-THE Amalga-
mated association convention will COM
plete the new scale of wages tomorrow,
in order to present it to the manufact-
urers on Wednesday. This will give
them time to consider it and be pre-
pared to talk intelligently on the sub
ject at the conference, which will be
held on Thursday afternoon. The plate
and tank mill scale will be completed
today, when the balance of the scale
scale. This was left out by the manu-
workers. The Amalgamated association
will insist on the nailers scale being in
serted, and will also place the
roll turner's schedule of wages
before the manufacturers once more.
1t is stated on reliable authority that
Carnegie. PhippS 81 Co. have decided
to cut loose from the Manufacturers
Protective association and Amalaga-
mated association and run independently.
The break will be made on July ], when
wage scales will be adopted for the
Union Iron mills at Twenty-ninth
street, the Thirty-third street mill and
the large steel plant at Homestead.
These works have heretofore been con-
trolled by the Amalgamated asSocia-
ton, and the wages based on the manu-
facturers' bar iron card. 1t is proposed,
and the proposition will be carried out,
to change the base of the scale from bar
iron to the prices on structural material.
If the Carnegie firm insists on the
change of base, it may cause rupture
in the workers organization, but the re-
suit cannot be predicted at present.

The Chicago Times evidently pos
sesses very clear understanding of the
tariff situation in Minnesota. Witness
the following:

the Minnesota Republicans are for low tariff.

for high tariff. and that, therefore, tariff is
not an lssae This conclusion will hardly
stand the test of logical analysis. 1t is be-

MAY GO TO THE SO"
Rumor Says That Road Will Sc
cure Manager Allen Marvel.


Dame Rumor is again busy with the
name of Supt. Marvel, of the Manitoba
road, and it is asserted that despite de-
mails the resignation of Mr.. MARVEL is in
the hands of President Hill, who has de-
layed taking any action thus far.
When it was first given ont that Mr.,
Marvel intended to sever his connec-
ton with the Manitoba, il was under
stood that the position of vice president
and general manager of the Union Pa
clflc road was held under adyiSement by
MIN, and that he was certain to be the
successor of Thomas Potter Now, how
ever, another story is atloat to the effect
that it is not the Union Pacific that is
the goal of Mr.. ManvePs ambition, but
that he is to be made general manager
OF the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy,
relieving Manager Stone. Stockholders
of the latter road, it is said, have been
making matters pretty warm for
President Perkins On account of
the losses sustained by the recent
strike, and there is a disposition
shown to shift the responsibility upon
the shoulders of Mr.. Stone. and it is UNI
derstood that the dispute will eliminate
in his withdrawal. One thing is certain,
however, and that is that Manager Man
vePS days with the Manitoba are num-
bered, and his resignation is entirely
voluntary and with view to improving
his condition in financial sense. The
absence of President Hill has been the
only obstacle in the way of an accept
ance at Mr.. Manvel's resignation, but
probably in the course of a week or so
the agony will be ended.
AS manager Mr.. Marvel has estab-
lished a deseryedly high reputation, and
not detail escapes his watchful eye by
which the comfort of the travelling pub
lie can be enhanced, so that his services
are very much desired by the Chicago,
Burlington 81 Quincy people.

LONDON. June 1.-THE unusually ur-
gent terms of the government whip,
issued by William Henry Smith and
published this afternoon, have created
a good deal of comment among the Con-
seryativeS, and large degree of en-
enlargement among the Liberals. The
result of the summons has been the is
Suance of Liberal document of like
character. which has been quietly but
thoroughly circulated. Mr.. Smith, in
his circular, says it is impossible to fore
tell the moment when a division will
take place, and warns the government
supporters that defeat, even on minor
point, will seriously weaken the
government, if, indeed, it does not
overthrow it. In this view he
urges the Importance of full attendance
and pairing" in case of unavoidable
absence, as means of sustaining the
policy in which all the governments adj
herentS have acQuieSced. This docu-
ment, coupled with Mr.. Smiths declara-
tons in the house this evening, confirms
the theory generally accepted on Satur-
day, that the government intends to
make an effort to carry the licenses and
other clauses of the local government
bill, which hitherto it has been thought
the ministry would abandon in order to
insure the passage of the main parts of
the measure,

OTTAWA, June 11.-Lord Stanley, the
gOyernor-general, has already become
the subject of talk by his democratic
actions. He was on Parliament hill this
afternoon long before the guard of
honor and employed his waiting time in
walking up and down the boulevard
chatting with Sir A. Caron, Sir Fred
Middleton and his aide-de-camp. After
the guard had arrived Lord STAN
ley did something which no
other governor before him has ever
done. he inspected the guard. He
then entered the senate chamber, where
the ceremony of swearing him in was
gone through. Replying to the civic
address, Lord Stanley expressed the
thanks of himself and his family for the
cordial welcome extended to him by the
citizens of Ottawa. He was glad to see
that citizens of Ottawa were animated
with loyalty to her majesty, whom he
characterized as becoming every day
more warmly enshrined in the hearts of
the people after a reign of fifty years.
He understood the difficulty he would
have in filling the position which
had been occupied by a long list of
illustrious predecessors, none of whom
was more distinguished than ex-Gov-
ernor-General LanSdowne. Though only
in the country few hours, he felt at
home, having already experienced the
hospitality and cordiality which had
made the name of Canadians proverbial.
Continuing, the governor-general eX-
pressed the hope that his short eX-
perience while secretary of state for the
colonies, giving him as it did a knowl-
edge of colonial affairs, would prove
fruitful during his stay i'll the great do

THE CONTACT WITH CANADA
Senator Gray Advocates Ratifica

Senator Gray Advocates Ratifica-
ton of the Fisheries Treaty.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE greater
part of the day was taken up in the SEN
ate to-day by the speech of Senator
Gray in favor of the ratification of the
fisheries treaty.
Mr.. Gray spoke in favor of its ratif-
cation. The
HAPPINESS AND HONOR
of the country, he said, were involved
in the discussion. 1t could not be made
to turn on the selfish wishes or pecu-
mary advantages of small number of
capitalists. Every treaty came before
the senate with an enormous
weight of presumption in its
favor, and it would be
dark day in the history of the country
when senators could denounee treaty
as cowardly and humilitating. He said
that all the rights of American fisher
men in regard to Canadian fisheries de-
pended on the terms of the treaty of
1918. 1t might suit the purpose of the
the negotiators of that treaty. He
traced the history of the fishery ques-
ton at length, and stated that the pend
ing treaty was practical, sensible and
statesmanlike way of dealing with the
question. In concluding he said the
secretary and the negotiators of the
treaty were on the American side of the
question. Those who defended it in the
senate were on the American side. The
president was ON the American side.
And the American people would
recognize the courage and self
sacrificing devotion to their high
est interests with which that
brave, honest, straightforward and
sagacious man had sought to serve
them. If,in obedience to party caucus
which sat with closed doors and kept
yelled in secrecy the real motives of OPP
position, the treaty should be defeated
by bare majority, an appeal would be
made to the sober Judgment of 1000, 900
people; and the brave and honest fish
ermen themselves, whose rights were
secured by this treaty, would be ap-
pealed to. When Mr.. Gray finished
Mr.. Hoar obtained the floor, but, on mo-
ton of Mr.. Sherman, further considera-
ton of the treaty was postponed until
Monday, June 25, and the senate at 5 :25
p. IN. adjourned.

mage to Transport an Invading
Force to England.
LONDON, June lin the house of
commons to-day Lord George Hamilton,
first lord of the admiralty, stated that
the calculation made in regard to the
number of transports necessary to ena-
BILE 100000 men to land in England and
to seize London by surprise. took into
consideration only the conditions that
such feat was possible; that the whole
army could disembark simultaneously,
and, when landed, that it would be ca
pable of rapid movement. The esti-
mate that ships with a gross tonnage of
$4,000 tons would be required for trans
porting the invading force, he said, was
on the assumption that it would be
equal to three army corps comprising
cavalry and artillery. Mr.. Childers
asked, seeing the interest which the
subject was exciting, that detailed and
authoritative statement be presented to
parliament. MI. Hamburg asked
whether the naval and military depart
mentS had consulted on the subject. Lord
George Hamilton replied that data had
been obtained thirteen years ago as the
result of a joint conference, and prom
ised to produce those of the transport
department, which satisfed,him that the
tonnage referred to did not overesti-
mate the preparation necessary for
landing such force. Such an inyad-
ing force from the continent, he con-
tinued, implied the distribution of the
invaders in ports hundreds of miles
apart, with successful voyage of not
less than week instead of few hours,
and made without opposition from a
hostile fleet.

on of the question one way or another,

ion of the question one way or another,
the country must endure the affection,
and valuable time is expended to no
purpose. Therefore the effort which
certain Democrats are making to bring
the debate to an end deserves to be
crowned with speedy success. If any
member does not possess clear COM
prehension of the tariff question and
the relation to it of the MILLS bill by
this time, he never will. Had congress
exhibited even ordinary energy and dill
gence, the MILLS bill might have been
brought to definite conclusion long
ago. As it is, the session is now near
ing its end and but little has been ac-
complished.
There is certainly need of the pruning
off of useless discussion during the re-
mainder of the session, and the sooner
it is begun the better.
