A SUMMER SCHEME.
The Motor Company's Plans for
the Lake Harriet Attractions.

The Motor COmpany'S PlanS Tor
the Lake Harriet Attractions.
The Motor company has under way
scheme which is intended to make Lake
Harriet one of the most popular sum-
mer resorts Minneapolis has. G. G.
Yost is now preparing plans ufor big
pavilion where the present motor sta
ton now stands. Adjoining this build
ing will be ten-acre garden, to be
known as Lake Harriet Garden. Here
will be animals, and many other objects
of interest. The building itself will be
36xS0 feet, and two stories in height.
The motor station will be in the
building, and all trains will
have to pass through it. On
the second floor will be a
theater, where light opera will be given.
There will be in the building a restau-
rant, bowling alley, and skating rink.
Surrounding the building will be
broad porch, where persons may sit and
eat ice cream. The grounds will be
fixed up for picnics, and already several
societies have made arrangements to go
there this summer. A special effort will
be made to make the place resort for
ladies and children. The admission, in
Guiding motor fare to and from the
place, wiH probably be fixed at 35
cents. No intoxicating liquors will be
allowed On OF near the grounds.

laughingly remarked another.

my clothes all covered with dust.

looked around and sure enough the girls
had dresses of all sorts of pieces and
patches as various in color as JoSeph'S

We've got a cloak room over there at
the end of the shop, where we keep our

handsomely. By these means Henne-
pin county was made solid for McGill
in the convention, yet such was the
feeling against him that even after the
effect of the ante-election riots, which
alienated thousands of voters, Ames
carried this county.
That is the situation.
1t is the statement of those who know
that the Pillsbury support of Snider is
coupled with deal by which Hennepin
county is to be captured for McGill,
though this condition is to be carefully
kept in the background. In accordance
with the deal, the booming and groom
ing of Capt. Snider has already begun.
The Pioneer Press, which has ever
been the plant organ of the
state house ring, Of which the
Pillsburys are the presiding genii, has
come out for him, followed by the Trib-
une and Dispatch, the terms Of whose
support are not given out. Capt. Snider
is all that is claimed for him. He is a
with the McGill boom he is in decidedly
bad company. The Pillsbury infu-
ence in Minnesota politics has re-
ceived its death wound and is in it's dy-
ing agonies. If the Snider boom be-
comes identified with it, the gallant cap
tain will go down.
But what of Fletcher?
Pleasing sphinx that he is, he is not
saying word. Hammered on all sides
he is smilingly pursuing the even tenor
of his way. Gilfllan's scalp now dan
giles at his belt Of Wampum, and he can
make room along side of it for the CORY
locks of Capt. Snider, and, if need be,

it loves power more. "You will always
observe the Pillsbury ak laid at the root
of every promising political tree" said
a politician whose name need not be
given here. ''For years they have been
uppermost in politics, and they will
attack anything that threatens to rob
them of power. If the aspiring
object is theirs and can ! be
moulded TO their use, they
are all right, but the moment
head appears that promises to go be-
yond their control, they throw bricks at
it. I have heard Charley Pillsbury talk
to Senator Langdon like an employee
while in the legislature, because acer-
tain bill did not take a certain course.
You know how the PillsbhTys made
McGill. 1t was their work and influ-
ence that nominated him and it was
him at the polls. Ever since the old
as nits organ, was formed, the Pills
burys have been on top.
don't know that they have It in
for Fletcher or that they are es-
pecially friendly to Snider for Snider's
sake, but believe it was Charley Pills
bury who defeated Fletcher's nOmina-
ton in 1884, and that he would do 1t
again."
That convention is we'll remembered.
Fletcher had things just about as he
wanted them, in spite of the fight
against him, when the adjournment for
dinner was secured. That was the fatal
move. The delegates from Isanti county
were Barker and Clough, both for
Fletcher, the Cloughs especially
having always been solid for the
Little Villain. Barker had steadily
voted for Fletcher, but it was
his turnings. that named Gillian.
Barker had accepted an invitation to
take dinner with friend at the Nicollet
house, aud was on his way up the street,
when G. A. Pillsbury hove in sight. He

to-day give 10000 majority against
McGill. Two years ago the county
was for Gibbs, but by a little
manipulation McGill delegates were
chosen by the convention over which
Charley Pillsbury presided. And it is a
coincidence, too, that by viva voce
ballot, he beat Capt. Snider for the
craftsmanship. after everything had
been fixed for Snider to have it. BY a
show of fairness each ward chose it's
own delegates, but those who were not
for McGill in the beginning, were fixed
before the state convention. Senator

A BJANTANT DEMAGOGUE.

With all their sins of omission and
commission the Democrats of Louisiana,
and the entire population of the state as
for that, are to be congratulated upon
escaping such an infliction as the cleo
ton of Ex-Governor McEnery as chief
magistrate of that state. That dis
tinguished person made a speech at
Shreveport few days ago in which he
took occasion to modify his somewhat
celebrated declaration made some months
ago, that at the election this month he
would see to it that there should be
free ballot and fair count. After
dwelling upon the Importance of Demo-
cratic success at the polls and the great
efforts which should be put forth to in
sure it he said: ''While I propose no
aggression against the rights of any
man, yet before this government
shall pass again under the DOM
nation of ignorance and vice
would wrap this State in revolution from
the Arkansas line to the gulf" By 1.-The
domination of ignorance and vice" the
governor meant the election of the Re-
publican ticket. Of course when an rex
cuse is wanted for election outrages such
talk as this is cheap, easy and effective
1t fatters the Democrats and gives them
to understand what is expected of them
But the fact is that the candidates on the
state ticket in Louisiana this
year are neither ignorant or vicious
While Yarmouth has been fiercelv
abused by the Democrats they have
never even tried to prove anything
against him and the charges made |
against McEnery himself during the late
canvass in which he was defeated for re-
were worse than any ever
brought against Yarmouth. 1t is to. be |
hoped that other means will be found |
that shall insure free ballot and fair |

TO reduce the duty on sugar particular
care should be taken to make the change
bear more heavily on the refiners than
on the planters. That is TO say, the cut
should be deeper on the refined than on
the raw product. OF course the Repub-
lean scheme is TO take off all the duty
from both sorts of sugar, giving the
planters bounty approximately equal
to the protection Which they enjoy
under the existing law. As no bounty
is proposed for the refiners. this scheme

THE RABBIT PEST IN NEW ZEALAND
mort by coggsI Campbell. of Auckland.

Report by CoHsai Campbell, Of Auckland.
The rabbit pest Is the greatest evil that
has afflicted the AGstralasian colonies,
aid perhaps no greater evil has ever
come upon any country. To eradicate
it from New Zealand has been the con-
slant aim of the government and people,
and the ways and means devised and
put in operation to this end have been
numerous and ingenious. A rabbit de-
partment has been established IN the
government, with a superintendent IN
charge, local boards have been created.
and private enterprises set on foot. all
having one common object IN vIew-the
determination of the rabbits.
The sheep farmers of New Zealand
were principally from England and were
fond of the WAYS of the Old Country,
and it is said that rabbits We're intro
duced for the chase-a popular amuse-
ment of the Old World. But it is Of
little consequence now as to why or how
the rabbits We're introduced: it is certain
that they came. They were brought
from England and Scotland and from
Tasmania. and were turned loose upon
the country. There were several kinds
the silver gray, the silver brown, ana
now and then would be found the black
and white furred. but all belonging TO
the great rabbit family. and were deS-
tined TO be seen and felt in New Zealand.
When il is considered that rabbits breSd
from six to twelve times a year, the
enormous increase that came from the
rabbits first introduced is not surprising.
1t is certain that nothing could so over
run a country since the locustS of Egypt.
1t is difficult to estimate the great
damage done 10 this young colony by the
rabbits. They have eaten out the ranges
so that the capacity for maintaining
sheep has greatly lessened. The sheep
have fallen oil in number. The loss has
been immense, running up INTO millions.
1t Is much easier to give an estimate OF
the money expended in destroying the
pests. At the Australasian stock con-
ference, held in Sidney in October, 1886;
it was shown that the rgbbit nuisance
was more serious than was usually be-
lieved. The carrying capacity of the
land had been reduced q third and the
weight of the fieeces had decreased from
one pound to one and one-half pounds
per fleece in weight. The landing per-
centage bad decreased from so to 10 per
cent. while the death rate increased
from 3 4, 5 and to 10, IL, II and Is
per cent.
1t is much easier to give an estimate
of the money expended in the work of
determination than in ascertaining the
damages done. In 1882 what is known
as the rabbit act became a law Since
then the government has expended an
nually $4,000 OH the Crown lands (gov-
eminent land) alone. One of the dele
gates to the Australasian stock con-
ference mentioned above estimated that
81 ,256, 600 was expended annually by
private individuals. During the last
eight years there has been expended the
sum of S12,0O0,0 900, and a very much
larger sum from the beginning of the
warfare, but how much it is difficult to
state.
