MINNEAPOLIS.
SHOWS THE CLovEN FOOT.

The GLOBE has frequently urged the
rejection by the Democrats of any
scheme looking to citizens ticket in
Minneapolis, on the ground that it was
Republican plan to avoid contest
which would imperil their county
ticket. The Minneapolis Tribune ia
vored the plan. but that thoughtless
Journal completely exposes itself in an
editorial as follows:
The Democrats of the Tenth Judicial dis
tTlct are endeavoring TO pull the wool over
Republican eyes by urging the mon par
tisan" support of a Democrat against Judge
Sleeper for the bench. Judge Sleeper is Q
good lawyer, an intelligent gentleman, au2
has given abundant satisfaction The dis.
trlct is overwhelmingly Republican. Why
should members of that party support a
Democrat on non-partisan platform in
place OF one of their own number? Do
Democrats in strong Democratic districts
support Republicans on non-paTtisan plat
forms! The Tribune never yet heard of an
instance of this character, and unless there
is some better reason for the displacement of
Judge Sleeper from the bench he has hon
ored than has yet been advanced it is to be
hoped that his services to the state and dis
trict will be continued.
On the same principle, why should
Democrats of Minneapolis support a
citizens ticket ''On a non-partisan plat
FORM in city which is clearly Demo
cratic? They will not do it. They will
make their own ticket, and support it
with an enthusiasm that will help out
the county, congressional and state
tickets

basement is to be fitted up for the Nor

CURRENT SAYINGS.

Mayor Ames-I think that portion of
the Whiteman law relating to primary
elections is unconstitutional. 1t clearly
infringes oil the rights of the individ-
ual.
Manager Gooding-Before l get

paid. and | expect to hold on long
enough to land pennant winner in

the young Democrats grow up and de-
generate into political hoodlums. That
was the tendency of Mondays conven-
ton.

a delegate to the congressional conven-
ton shall vote for him." The anti
Ames men repudiate in toto the state
ment of Mr.. Castle that the fight was
one between himself and Mr.. Durant.
They went into the fight to prevent Mr..
Ames from securing the delegation
from Washington county. and many of
Mr.. Durant'S friends were arrayed
against him because of their antipathy
to Ames. and not from personal objec-
ton to MIR. Durant nor special friendli-
hess to Mr.. Castle. Whatever differences
may exist between the two gentlemen
here cut no figure in the contest al
luded to-" MI. Durant was seen about
the Tribune interview, and said: 81
scarcely think Mr.. Castle reflected the
sentiments of the people of Washing

AN ELECTiOyLAw TEST

Behind the personal feeling which
prompted the arrest of A. d. Smith,
yesterday, is law, the operation of
which will be watched with interest.
There is no doubt that C. B. Maben is
inspired more by his antipathy to
Smith than his love for law in insti-
tuting this proceeding: but the public
cares nothing for Smith or Maben in
this matter, and will look only
at the principle of law involved.
1t is anotorious fact that the law has
been constantly and generally ignored
in every primary election held since its
approval, and also in every convention.
Even the Prohibiti0niSts, though they
opened their convention with prayer,
neglected to administer the required
oath to the presiding officer. The
new election law requires each in
SpectOr at primary election
or chairman at party COLI
ventiOn TO subscribe to the same oath as
is required of an inspector at a general
election. For every instance in which
such an oath was taken, there are hun
dredS where it was never thought of, or
1ltllOuSHG vi. lduSltu DIT. 1HdSlIluCll DIS
the law says the oath shall be the same
in form as ''now required by inspectors
at general elections" there is a
possibility that technicality may
invalidate the law. There are no sin
spectors' under our laws, and cense-
quentIy there can be no ''such oath as is
required of inspectors" How far this
may affect the law is not known,as legal
opinions differ, but the law is another
sample of the hasty and bungling work
of the last legislature. The law was
copied from the New York law, and was
so crudely copied that the word sin
spect0rS'' was left in it in this section
and changed to Judges in others.
The action in point is brought under
section 1O1 of the law, which bears on
another point, but as the act itself will
be subjected to its first legal scrutiny
in this case, the result will be watched
with interest.

NON-UNION MEN
Putting Up the Arches---Exposi-
ton Opening Day.

SAOh ~
At the weekly meeting of the EXPOSE
ton directors yesterday, W. E. Steele.
president of the Nicollet Avenue
Illuminating association, said the work
of erecting the arches was progressing
rapidly. They have fifty men at
work, and would have four
squares of arches up by Thursday
night. He further said that last Satur
day night four men who called them
selves walking delegates" came from
the gasfitters' union and persuaded
twenty-seven men working for the asso-
citation to quit work. These men were
receiving s. per day, but the walking
delegates" told them they ought to have
more. AS far as possible non-union
men are now being employed.
The opening day programme was re-
committed to the committee in charge.
for revision and addition. President
Washburn will be absent and Rev.
Robert Collyer is too i'll to be present.
Several names of orators were stg-
gested, but no action was taken. Prof.
Clausen's plan to exhibit his Yellow
stone panorama was again defeated. as
the directors thought it entailed too
much expense. ~
