HIS OWN PLATFORM,
Prof Warren Builds One and
PercheS Upon 1t.

William ]. Warren has decided to be-
come candidate for superintendent of
schools on non-political platform.
Two years ago his case was a singular
one. Both parties agreed to confer
ence on the Office. but the confer
ence came to naught. Loren Fetch
er dominated the Republican members
who insisted upon nominating W. w.
Wrooman, who had been Fletcher's
Whlpper-ln, owing to his nationality.
The Democrats could not swallow him,
and finally nominated Warren. The
latter made a marvellous run and was
elected by tremendous majority. The
Democrats will probably renominate
him and the Republicans may swallow
the mSelveS and do the same. Prof.
Warren has issued the following decla-
ration:
To the Editor of the Globe.
Two years ago, in accordance with
suggestion of the leading newspapers
that the Office of county superintendent
of schools should not be made strictly a
political one, announced myself as
now partisan, or rather all educational
candidate for that office: that this was
the correct view was confirmed at the
polls by phenomenal vote, which gave
me a majority of about 5000 greater
than the greatest of all other maiorities.
Of the hundreds of teachers since eX-
amined by me have never asked the
question: ''What is your politics. or,
what is your religion" But rather,
''what is your ability as a student
what is your moral character-are you
sure you are in advance of your pros
pective pupils IL knowledge of the COM
mon branches of study-what do you
know of the theory and practice of teach
1ng--of algebra, geometry, philosophy
civil government, physiology, etc." in
short, what are your credentials and
diplomas?"
Such test the school SUPERINTENDENT
is required by law to apply to all who
teach in the common schools. How
mucn more should he be able to stand
similar, yet Severer, test?
My credentials were briefly given i'm
the Spectator of September or October.
1886: my platform in the Tribune of
Sept. 20, 1856, and GLOBE of about the
same date, and 1 fatter myself that
they, as well as my administration of
the office, are very acceptable to the
people.
Believing, then, that all political par
ties will agree that the office is educa-
tiOnal rather than political, and hoping
that all other candidates may see fit to
enter this friendly contest ON similar
platform, shall be pleased to receive
such support as my many friends in all
political parties may see fit to accord
me. Respectfully, WM.J. WARREN,
County Supt

GAPING WOUNDS
Which the Republican Party VIII
Soon Present TO the World.

Which the Republican Party VIII
Soon Present to the World.
Democratic dissensions in Hennepin
county is such novelty that the pres
ent wild disagreement which grew out
of the state convention is affording con-
siderable satisfaction to the Republi-
cans, who are in perennial pos
session of family row OF
their own. No one should
attempt to disturb their enjoyment. for
it will be short lived. They have fights
of their own On board that will pres-
emily develop into riots that will
make the Democratic differences seem
as lovers quarrels by contrast. In
every convention to be held-state, con-
gressional, city and county-the
Hennepin Republicans will have
each other by the ears and
numbers as to furnish vaudeville audi
ences for generations to come. Wait
breath and think of the row when the
Merriam. Scheffer and McGill forces
come into conflict Sept. 5. Loren
Fletcher is now drawing the lines for
McGill in one direction, but never
even looking at John S. Pills
bury. who is doing the same thing in
another direction. Col. Ed. Davenport
is whooping up the Merriam campaign
for all that is in it, while the Scheffer
bag and bottle holders are circulating
rapidly, secretly and effectively. When
these three winds run counter in a con-
vention there will be shipwreck some
where.
What Democratic wrangle can be com
pared with the Corsican scheming now
going on in Republican congressional
circles? 1t is.a deadly warfare which
this county will monopolize. 1t will be
entirely unnecessary to sprinkle salt to
infiame the gaSheS destined to follow
the clash of that convention.
If defeated, can Capt. Snider,
courteous smiler that he is,
overlook the bitter and malignant war
fare made upon him by committee of
which Loren is supreme dictator? But
suppose Judge Rea should 60 down in
dark and sinister smile of Loren
Fletcher as he contemplates the scalp of
John B. Gilfillan dangling at bis belt?
In any case there will be a gaping
wound that will grow proud flesh until
the sun goes down on election day.
The county party is in no better
shape. Have not the party leaders de-
clared the death and burial, in polit-
icaI sense, of any Scandinavian who
shall aspire to place on the county
ticket? In their secret cabals more than
one fierce threat has gone out against
certain Swedish officeholders, thrust
into fat offices to enable them to pay
commercial debts due the party bosses.
Wounds! Why, the very air will smell
| Of blood.
In the city field there is nothing.
The Republicans are quite hopeless in
the city, Any party that would fly
from danger into the arms of citizens
ticket confcsses the forlorn situation in
| which it finds itself.

MINNEAPOLIS.
A LAW WORTH STUDY,

There has been nothing yet to test
that portion of the Whiteman law which
relates to primary elections. The Smith
Maben lease was thrown out of court
without reference to the law, and Judge
Bailey did not pass upon the section
which requires inspectors to be sworn.
The question arises. what is the ne
cessity of laws that are not
and cannot be enforced? No caucus
In Minneapolis has ever paid the slight
est attention to the provisions of the
Whitemen law. No inspector has ever
been sworn and the pretext is that the
law requires the same oath that is adj
ministered to inspectors of general cleo
lions, whereas there are no inspectors of
general elections. The presiding officer
of no convention has been sworn in,
and even the state conventions of
all three parties ignored this mandate
of the law. In the case of Maben
against Smith it was shown in evidence
that the inspectors were not sworn, but
the point was not raised and no ruling
was made. So far, at least, the law has
been dead letter.
But 1t is not out of place to utter
word of warning. The provisions of
the law which relates to the elections
cannot be so sighted, and voters should
beware how they allow the non-observ-
ance of this law to grow. The Repub-
licans will die hard this year, and they
will take advantage of the least quib-
BILE in this law to turn results
to their own advantage. Politicians
should study the law and note the
changes it prescribes, and all members
of campaign committees should make it
their business to post themselves thor
oughly. 1t is quite probable that points
will arise before the election which will
require the construction of attorneys
for the state as well as for counties and
cities.

HE WANTS THE GIRL.
Interesting Resume of the District
Court Yesterday.

Alberta Monahan, aged six years. was
brought into the district court yester-
day on writ of habeas corpus. AL
berta is an orphan and two years ago,
when her mother died, she was given to
her aunt, Mrs. Nellie Hubbard, who re-
sided at 1912 Hillside avenue, in this
city. Five months ago her aunt died.
leaving her to the care of her hus-
band, Herman Hubbard, with
whom she is now living.
A day or two ago Madison G. Allen, of
Nevada, To-, made his appearance at
Mr.. Hubbard's house, and stating that
he was Alberta's legal guardian, de-
manded that she be delivered up to him.
His request vas denied, and he then
swore out writ of habeas corpus to get
possession of her. He appeared in
court yesterday, and claiming to
be duly appointed as her guar
dian by an. Iowa court, again demanded
that she be delivered up to him. Mr..
Hubbard stated that he had adopted the
girl and that Allen is not her guardian
by decree of any competent court. The
hearing was begun and afterward con-
tinued to Sept. 4. to give Allen time to
get evidence from Iowa to SubStantiate
his claim. 49,

SUCCESSORS TO
Barnes, Rengerer, Dsmond & Co.

We have recently called your at
tenti0n to some specialties in our
Silk Department. To-day we pre-
sent what we consider the greatest
of them all. It is a full line of COL
Ors in Faille Franchise, which we
shall retail at 81 per yard. We
have compared them with the best
things at the price shown in the
market, and they lead them all.
They are pure Silk, are not
weighted in the dye, and cannot be
matched for less than $1.25 a yard.
You will find at the Trimming
Counter a good assortment of
Fancy Tinsel Passementeries, Plain
Silk Gimps and WOrsted Braids in
cOlOrs, which we purchased at
about half-price, and shall sell cor
respondingly cheap. A nice line of
Black Passementeries, both in Jet
and plain silk, with ornaments to
suit. Cool. evenings remind one
that all outside garment of some
sort is necessary for health and
comfort. 1t is hardly safe to 60 out
without one. Allow us to suggest
that we have anticipated your
wants, and can show you complete
assortment in all qualities and
styles. A particularly fine line of
Jackets, the demand now being
heaviest for these garments.
Visitors to the Exposition should
not fail to inspect our Cloak Ex-
hibit On the third floor of the Expo-
sitiOn Building. 1t will give you
some idea of the character, though
not of the quantity. of the garments
you will find in our Cloak Depart
ment. Customers will notice we
have made some changes in the ar
rangements of our store, which we
think will be found more conven-
lent all around. You will no
longer be compelled to go to the
second floor to find the Linen De-
partment. or Print and Bingham
Department. We have moved both
to first floor, rear end of the store.
We would call your attention to a
lot of Huck Towels at 121ac, 15c and
zoe each, and rafting good one,
~ by AZ inches, at 25c each; also
to 25-dOzen lot of Cream Doylies

A fine specimen of the nfght-blooming

Tomorrow is the first children's day,

the list for distribution.

tor it belongs to Maj. Fred Bracket,
the gifted Washingtonian, and G. F.
travis. 1t is exceedingly handsome.
The pOmpier ladders to be used in the
exercises in the Exposition to-day were
introduced into the fire departments of
this country by Chris Holl, an erstwhile
fireman OF st. Louis. His idea was
taken from the pompier corps of the
french army. They are great inven-
ton, and hundreds of lives have been
saved through this agency. The best
pompier corps in the country is I'M
doubtedly that of this city.
The railroad tickets are coming in in
great shape. There were 26S arrivals
yesterday, an increase of lis over the
previous day.

FIGHT BETWEEN TWO.
The Republican Warfare Over the
. County Attorneyship.

. County Attorneyship.
When the Republican county conven-
ton is held next Monday genuine cir
Gus with side show attachments is likely
to occur. The aspirants for the various
county offices are many, and in several
instances the fight for nomination has
waged fiercely for some weeks. The
most bitter contest will probably occur
on the nomination for county attorney.
j. n. Bearnes and Robert Jamison are
most frequently named for that Office,
Mr.. JamisOn's friends claimed him to
be the strongest candidate because of
his work in the Barrett murder case,
while MIR. Barnes friends insist that he
is fully as competent as Mr.. Jamison,
and that Mr.. Jamison, after having
served four years in Office, ought to be
retired. 1t is alleged that Jamison does
not need the salary connected with the
Office, while many other equally as
ably and deserving lawyers, do need it.
1t is urged that during the Barrett
murder trial Mr.. Jamison publicly
asserted, in order to convince the jury
that he could have no object in misstat-
ing the alleged confession of the Bar
retts, that he was about to retire from
the practice of law, and would never ap-
pear as a prosecutor after his present
term expired. How much influence on
the verdict this statement may have
had is problematical, but by reason of
it MI. BearneS, believing that Mr.. Jami-
son told the truth, had expended
his time and money in making canvass
for the nomination before it was known
that Jamison had reconsidered his al
legged determination to retire" 1t is
also claimed that several rods are Sin
pickle'' for Mr.. Jamison which, in case
OF his nomination, might render his
election more than doubtful. 1t is an
open secret that the ''bosses" of the g.
Q. p. in this county intend to punish
Jamison for the part he took in state
convention last June in sending f. F.
Davis to the Chicago convention in OPP
position TO their desire. Mr.. Bearnes'
chances are certainly Frightening.

BRAINY SCHOOL MARMS
Find Much of Interest and Profit
in the Institute.

There was large attendance at the
teachers institute, in session at Curtiss
hall, again yesterday. and Prof. War
rem feels highly gratified at the interest
manifested in the work. The session
opened yesterday morning with singing
by all present. Miss Myrtle Earle pre-
sided at the piano. A lesson in pri-
mary reading by Miss Sprague fol-
lowed. Prof. Warren addressed the in
stitute upon the law governing school
libraries, and then introduced Supt.
Engstrom, of GOodhue county, who
spoke of the benefits to the schools from
having a library. W. q. Smith, of In
dlanapolis. gave ten minute lesson in
bookkeeping, and Prof. Niles followed
with lesson in geography. The Ques-
ton box. presided over by Prof. War
rem, was an interesting feature of the
day. Each teacher wrote out her
question and dropped it into the box,
from which place it was taken and dis
cussed. Miss Sprague gave lesson in
arithmetic. and Mrs. Haywood took up
the subject of kindergartens.

Two of the proudest people at the Ex-
position are Messrs. Marsh & Fair
banks, representing the Worcester Cor
set company, and they have good reason
to be, for their display is certainly as
handsome and unique as any ever seen
in the building. Nearly as many men
as women stop to admire the elegant
articles. According to Mr.. Marsh, this
display is more expensive than either
OF those at New Orleans, the Centennial
OF the American institute. A fine cor
set is given every day to the lady regis
tering opposite certain number the

lady was Mrs. A. j. Mckenzie, 1871 Uni
