A CHILD IN DISPUTE.
Mother and Grandmother Desire
to Be Its Guardian.

Louisa Bowlan, who, assisted by her
husband, forcibly took possession of her
child last Thursday, which was legally
in the custody of her mother, Mrs. Ochs,
is likely to be called upon to answer a
charge of assault. No definite action
has been decided upon by the supreme
court. but the majesty of the law will be
vlndicated as follows: Testimony will
be taken by the clerk OF the district
court of Carver, who, as referee in the
application FOR writ of application for
a writ of habeas corpus made by Mrs.
Bowlan. will decide who is to be legally
the guardian of the child-the mother
or the grandmother? Ii the grand
mother. then means will have to be
adopted to obtain possession of the
child. who was Illegally taken away
from Mrs. Ochs after she had appeared
before the supreme court. Meanwhile
Mrs. Bowlan and her worthy spouse
may elude the cumbr0uS machinery of
the law by quitting the country.

EXPERIMENTAL COMPANIES.

Insurance Commissioner Shan
drew's Opinions on Doubtful
Corporations.
State Insurance Commissioner Shan
drew is taking most decided stand
against the operations of doubtful COM
panies in the state. There is operating
i'll this city a corporation entitled the
Central Mutual Aid association of st.
Paul. The object of this company is to
provide medical attendance and fixed
weekly sim for members du-
ring sickness. 1t was granted
a license to operate III Januory
last. In August Mr. Shandrew called
for an examination of the accounts of
the association, and preferred charges
with the attorney general for closing it
out, but, in the language of the insur-
ance commissioner, ''tley pleaded Tor
time to Straighten out matters. In
stead of things improving, they have
got worse, so to-day | have requested
the attorney general TO finally close it
up. | am of the opinion that it is ell
tirely unable to pay its liabilities OF cur
rent expenses. and in the interests of
the public take this stand The asso-
citation is of the same character as the
one recently refused to license, and in
consequence mandamus proceedings
We're commenced against me. The de-
cision in that action will be given in
few days, but if | am compelled to
license 1T, have 10 reason to expect il
will be any different from the one we
are now closing out. All such schemes
are nothing but experiments. and up TO

TOO MUCH MONEY.
Proposed Return Of Funds to the
State.

An increased surplus! Such is the
condition of the funds. of the eleven
correctional and charitable institu-
tions of Minnesota. Taking the close
of the biennial year in 1886. July 81,
the surplus of funds appropriated for
current expenses was Sol, $3.50. July
81 of this year the sum had increased to
S92, ,216.35, or an actual gain of $32, 225O. SO.
Owing to the growing magnitude Of the
surplus, the state board OF corrections
and charities has decided upon recon-
mending the legislature to alter the la W
governing these funds. II this is done,
all. unexpended appropriations after
two years will revert back to the state
treasury. Secretary Hart cordially
recommends this action, believing it
will be an economical step, as, with b
large surplus to their credit. temptation
is placed in the way of the various
boards of managers to use il indis-
criminately.

BOARD OF TRADE.

The regular meeting Of the Board OF
Trade was held Monday morning With
Pres. Barr in the chair and full at
tendance of members. An invitation
was received from the German Singing
society inviting the Board to participate
in the parade on July 4th.
A communication was received IN re-
gard to starting watch factory in OF
near the city. 1t is the same concern
that has been trying to secure location
in other cities and has previously ad-
dressed the Mankato Board of Trade.
The matter of securing the location OF
the orphans home of the Norwegian
Evangelical Lutheran church was
brought up. 1t appeared that Garden
CITY, to secure the location, has offered
sixteen lots and the use of the hotel for
a year or to sell the hotel for site at E
nominal sum. A committee consisting
of II. P. Christensen, W. R. Geddes and
M. o. Sundt was appointed, to which
the matter was referred. 1t is expected
that committee from the Synod will be
here soon.
M. G. Willard was elected a delegate
to the meeting of the State Business
Mems Association to be held at st. Paul
June 9th.
Gen. E. M. Pope explained the rail-
road situation in this state and more es-
peciallY that of Iowa. ,
Mr.. F. G. Heinze was appointed
chairman OF the committe on member
ship, to take the place of Geo.
A. Clarke, resigned.
The resignation of Geo. A. Clarke as a
director was received and accepted. In
his letter of resignation he stated that
he had become convinced that his SER
vices in this city were no longer re-
quired.
Messrs. G. F. Piper aud B. F. Pay
were elected directors, vice Carl Dice
and Geo. A. Clarke, resigned.
The Board then adjourned.

The New York Erenin0 Post saws:

The painful truth is, that We doubt il
q single independent voter in this state,
of the thousands who supported Presi-
dent Cleveland in 1884, any longer at
taches any importance to the utterances
of the members of the administration on
the subject of civil service reform, or
any longer refuses to believe that the
presidents promises and professions
have been violated or disregarded, on q
great scale, with the utmost holiness, in
sundry places and divers manners, and
that men like Judge Maynard and Sur
veyoT Beattie have actually been de-
tailed or told off to practice as much
civil service abuse as can be readily
concealed or disguised when they are
found out and exposed.
In spite of this admission of the brutal
way in which the Cleveland administra-
ton has treated them, the Mugwumps
still propose to support him for re-elec-
ton, and pretend to believe that better
things can even be expected of Cleve-
land than of any Republican, be his
name Sherman, Gresham or any other
Of the honest, sincere and upright
statesmen whom the party has 10 select
from. This persistency on the part of
the Mugwumps proves that it is not
civil service reform which is bothering
them, but the real reason for their allie
glance to Democracy comes from their
leaning toward free trade. They are
one and all enemies of protection and
the Republican position on that ques-
ton precludes their supporting the can
didate of that party.

The boycott has succeeded in its dirty
work at last. Shotwell, Clerihew & 10th
man, the big dry goods jobbers and
clothing manufacturers of Minneapolis,
have suspended payment, and a meet
ing of their creditors has been called.
About two morths ago 200 of their fe-
male employees went out on strike be-
cause of cut in prices of piece-work.
The subsequent attempts at arbitration
and final declaration of boycott on the
part of nearly all the labor organizations
of the city are familiar. The firms
business has suffered heavy falling off.
and their present financial trouble is
directly chargeable to the boycott. We
know nothing regarding the justice OF
the girls demands-very likely the firm
is to be censured for not acting differ
emily In the matter-but we are sure
that the methods taken to embarrass
them through so-called boycott are
un-American, contemplate and worthy
of the severest condemnation. What
ever may have been the circumstances
of the girls quarrel with the firm, they
were not obliged to work when the
wages did not suit them, and the boy
colt is a method of settling difficulties
which should not be tolerated in civil
lied community.

MANKATO BRICK THE BEST.

Thursdays Pioneer Press contained an
article on the bricks used iii the con-
struction of buildings IN that city. In
tervIews with two experts in building
material were published. One of them
said:
"The chief trouble about bricks here
is the fact that there is such heavy de-
mand for them that they can't be fur
nlshed fast enough, that is, good bricks,
and contractors work IN some very poor
stuff, which We condemn whenever We
can get hold of it. What mean by good
bricks are those made at Chaska, Man
kato, Little Falls and some points in
Wisconsin, near here. Good bricks are
always in demand in the building sea-
son and there is money in the business"
The other had this to sav:
"The building stone in this state ID
tie best in the world, and can be easily
obtained, but the same cannot be said
for the bricks. There is very poor clay
about st. Paul for brick making. Why,
| saw a man turn the hose on pile of
b. icks which were going into building
OH Seventh street not long ago, and
hundreds of them actually melted away
under the water. Our best bricks come
from up the Minnesota river valley"
That Mankato brick is appreciated is
easily proven by visit to any of our
brick yards. The proprietors are in
constant receipt of orders and their
product finds its way into some of the
handsomest and costliest buildings in
the state. 1t is gratifying to note that
whatever Mankato sends abroad, and
the articles are numerous, perfect salts
faction is given. More than that, every
shipment brings in new orders and
spreads the city's good reputation.

IT is said that chairman b. F..Jones,
of the Republican National committee,
has gone to Chicago with a third letter
from Mr.. Blaine in his possession. That it
is one which has just been received from
Scotland and is TO be read upon the as
sembling of the National convention.
In it Mr.. Blaine states most emphatical-
ly that he will not permit the use of his
name in connection with the president
ial nomination and he would not accept
it though it was rendered him unanim-
ously. He indicates Senator John Sher-
man as his choice for the place and
pledges his hearty support to the ticket
nominated. A delegate to the national
convention who is a strong Sherman adj
vocate, says that he knew such a letter
was to be written by Blaine, inasmuch
as the latter had an agreement with
Sherman prior TO his departure for Eu-
rope, to the effect that he would support
him in his candidacy. Doubtless it is
true that Blaine and Sherman have I'M
derstood each other upon this matter.
Mr.. Sherman openly avowed his candi-
daey many months ago, and he Is too
shrewd politician to have done so
without some certain understanding of
Mr.. Blaine's position regarding the
place. We very much doubt, however,
ifany public announcement will be made
of Mr.. Blaine's preference for Sherman.
Both are too smart to indulge in any
thing which would smatter of dictation.
If Mr.. Blaine does favor Mr.. Sherman's
candidacy the fact will doubtless be
quietly made known to those who are
likely to be influenced thereby. But as
We stated yesterday we do not think
that very many of the delegates are
likely to take other than their own
judgment in making their choice. If
the report above given is genuine, how
ever, it cannot fail to give Mr.. Sherman's
candidacy lift that will be likely to re-
suit in his nomination.
Since the above was written Chairman
Jones has been interviewed, and denies
having received any such letter from
Mr.. Blame. This ought TO settle it, ex-
cept that there is always some fire where
ever smoke is found.

The senate judiciary committee is act
ing very aggravatingly in so often post
poning action upon the nomination of
Mr. Fuller for chief justice. The reason
assigned for the last delay was that it
was deemed inexpedient to bring the
case into the senate until after the Chi
cago convention. There is a general
understanding between the two parties
that no questions which may be regard
ed as political shall be discussed during
the convention. 1t perhaps may be in
ferred from this that some of the Re-
publicans intend to treat this case as
political, and that they shall oppose con-
firmation when the nomination shall be
reported to the senate. That probably
is the fact. STILL there is no reason to
believe but that Mr.. Fuller will be con-
firmed when a vote is reached. Due
consideration of Mr.. Fuller's ability,
antecedents and other points will doubt.
less show him to be as well qualified for
the place as any other man Cleveland is
likely to nominate.

THE election of a Republican LegIsla-
ture in Oregon has dashed completely
what hopes the Democrats had of secur-
ing majority in the next Senate. The
election of a Democrat in Virginia in
place of Riddleberger makes tie as far
as 1t goes. There Is no other State the
term of whose Senator expires next
March, in which the Democrats have a
ghost of a show of gaining the Legisla-
ture this year. If they shall succeed in
holding their own in the States which
have Democratic Senator whose term
Is about expiring, parties will be tied in
the Senate after March next, and the
control of legislation will rest with the
party who shall elect the YIce-President
next November, providing he has health
and strength sufficient to perform the
duties of the Office. But while the Dem
ocrats have little or no chance of adding
to their number of Senators, the Repub-
hcans have a very fair prospect of elect
ing one of their own faith to succeed
Mcpherson.

GROVER may be expected TO make an
other reference in his coming letter of
acceptance TO the evils connected with
presidents seeking second-we
mean, third term. If by anv slip of
circumstances, however, Mr.. Cleveland
should be elected next sall no one need
be surprised to find him soon laying
ropes for third term. His grip on his
party seems to be such that it would
dare not refuse him another renomina-
