STRAY SuNREANIS

Editor Tom Bowen, of the Sleepy Eye
Herald,i is good newspaper man, who knows
good thing in the line of journalism when
he sees it. He says: 'The st. Paul GLOBE
manages to keep its readers interested with
racy gossip relative to the prominent poll
ticians of the state. In this respect it is far
ahead of its contemporaries. The GLOBE is
forcing its way to the front in every other
way by sheer force of merit as the great
journal of Minnesota The fact that the
GLOBES circulation goes on increasing at the
rate of thousand week indicates that the
people of the Northwest concur with Mr..
Bowen in this opinion.

A SPLENDID SHOWING.

Every city has its class of croakerS
and pessimiSts who are continually
harping upon some imaginary wrong
and who can see good i'll nothing. st.
Paul is no exception. More than that.
we have class who are neither conSti-
tutional croakers nor pessimiSts, but
who are malicious fault finders. These
classes combine to do the city per-
petual injury by everlastingly publish
ing to the world that st. Paul is mis-
governed city and that the extravaganza
of each successive administration is
something horrible.
1t is for the purpose of counteracting
the bad influence excited by these
classes of our citizens that the GLOBE
publishes this morning a somewhat
lengthy but perfectly fair review of the
administration of the city government,
and presents Herewith comparison
with other leading cities of the Union.
In doing so, we publish nothing but
what is sustained by the most reliable
statistics.
One thing that will not fail to escape
the attention of the reader is that st.
Paul is not only the lowest taxed city in
the country, but that it has gotten more
and better class of improvements for
the money expended than probably any
other city in the world. In the first
pl ace, it must be remembered that
within the last five years st. Paul has
made growth unprecedented in the
growth of cities. This marvellous growth
has demanded an immense expenditure
of public moneys. Notwithstanding
this fact, the tax rate has been kept to
the minimum, and yet all the depart
ments of the municipal government
have been kept up to the highest stand
ard of efficiency. 1t is marvel that it
should have been done without leak
ages somewhere.
1t is but just to say in this connection
that the persons who are entitled to
public recognition for the splendid
showing that st. Paul makes are the
men into whose hands the administra-
ton of the city affairs has been COM
mitted. Mayor SMITH, Comptroller
ROCHE, Treasurer REFS and the men,
bers of the city council are the ones
mainly to whom our people are in
debted foE. giving them the best and
most economical municipal govern
ment on the face of the American con-
tinent

HOTSES AND CAR LINES.

In yesterdays GLOBE the scarcity Of
suitable houses to rent in st. Paul was
clearly set forth. The Investigations
upon which the article was based point
conclusively to the fact that this scar
city goes hand in hand with the fact that
there is urgent demand for the extension
of street car facilities and the better
ment of the facilities now existing.
That local capitalists stand ready to
enter into an agreement to construct a
hundred houses to be rented alta moder-
ate figure is sufficient evidence of the
proposition.
The street car company is doubtless
not averse to making all the money pos
sible, and 1t certainly should not be
blind to the fact that the extension
desired, upon the terms offered, would
be source of profit to itself. But there
are other sections of the city which the
lines of the street car company now
penetrate which can be improved to adj
vantage, and where, in building houses
designed to be rented to people of mod
crate means. capitalists can find an eX-
ceedingly profitable investment.
There is no reason why the experience
of Philadelphia capitalists, who have
found added fortune in building small
houses in various parts of that city for
renting purposes, should not be repeated
here. In fact, here the opportunity is
even better, for the demand is better,
and is constantly increasing. In no
class of investment-not excepting
bonds-can capitalists have better as
surance of security; for net only will
their rents in comparatively short
time return the original input, but. the
accretion in value will of itself return
a substantial interest on the invest
ment.
Capitalists who are looking toward
the West for opportunities to dispose Of
their surplus advantageously will do
we'll to bear these facts in mind.

AnInaIan,s Pale-Faee Bride,

Ashland (Wis.) Special to the Milwaukee Sentinel.
 An intelligent, we'll educated and industri- ous Indian is a very rare person, but Ash land has such resident and this city is the scene of the final enactment of 8 most extra ordinary romance. The marriage of Miss Cora Belle Fellows, an unattractive woman looking for notoriety, becoming the bride of big, lazy redskin, is in marked contrast with that of a refined, well-bred lady be- becoming the wife of the Chippewa Indian referred to- His name is William Haskins, and he has lived in northern Wisconsin for many years He has amassed by no means inconsiderable fortune and is a shrewd busi ness man, as all who have dealings with him testify. Three weeks ago an ordinary notice in Madison, Wisconsin, newspaper an- nounced the marriage, at the maternal resi- denee of the bride, of Mir Haskins, of Ash- land, Wisconsin, and Miss India Carmine Gile, of Madison. No one in this city, how ever, who was acquainted with Mir. Haskins became aware of the fact that he was new
 ly welded man. Several days ago the cou- ple arrived here and took rooms in one ot the hotels, afterwards going to keeping house" on Second street, east. Not even then did it leak out that such a romantic un- ion had occurred. A call at the apartments of the newly welded couple was made this afternoon. The bridegroom came to the door, aud on learning the mission of the re-
 porter cordially invited him into his parlor. The rooms were we'll furnished, and the scrupulously neat Mrs. Haskins, attired in g becoming black dress, entered the room and an introduction followed. The bride chat- ted pleasantly with the newspaper man and the story of the marriage was told. Miss Gile belonged to we'll to do and highly re- spected family in Madison.

ENGLAND,s CIVIL SERVICE.

The report of the royal commission ap- pointed to inquire into the working of the civil service regulations is interesting here as well as there. The civil service of the United Kingdom is perhaps as we'll regulated as that of any country, but the commissioners find that there is an unnecessary number of high ly paid officials; that is, of those who are supposed to be prepared to take broad views of public business and do the responsible work, involving discretion and judgment as distinguished from that which is purely cleri- cal. The commission finds that the latter class of work is more largely predominant in government offices than the outside public ordinarily suppose, and that men who have been employed at high rate of pay for as- stunned exceptional qualifications are often employed upon work which could easily be performed by men of ordinary mental attain ments. The recommendation of the commis- sion tends, therefore, to increase the number of government employees in what is termed the second division, and to reduce the num- Der in the first division. The pecuniary at fractions in the first division are graded so as to attract men who would otherwise enter a profession with 8 fair prospect of success. Those who compete are required to pass an examination practically equivalent to uni versity degree, and, unless the inducements are large, man of this stamp are not likely to take the trouble to go through the work needed to get government office.
 The uniform official day is to be fixed at seven hours, and it is proposed that those who desire pensions shall contribute five per cent. of their salaries towards this object, these contributions to be repaid with com pound interest, in the event of no pension be- ing granted. The age for 8 compulsory re- tirement is fixed at sizty-fve; but, if the in- terests of the service seem to require it 8 clerk may be retired at sixty; while, on the other hand, if specially invited by the govern ment, he may remain in office until seventy. The commissioners are very earnest in their declaration of the advantage to be obtained by promotion for merit, but they admit that where the plan of seniority is departed from there are opportunities for favoritism which are likely to be availed of by the unscrupu- lous, and against such abuses 1t may be diff. cult to provide the needed precautions.

As formulated in Massa- ehusstts largely by the enternrise of Boston yaehtsmen, the idea is to make the naval contingent entirely State affair and on 8 par with the militia, of which it will form a part. The officers are to be commissioned by the governor, just as the land officers are, and the State is to furnish uniforms. Only arms and equipments and a vessel of war for the performance of duty are asked of the national government. Instruction is to be given as the governor may direct.
