CURRENT COMMENT.

George K. Shaw, the editor of the
Evening Star, has addressed an open
letter to the Trades and Labor assembly
in reply to the resolutions passed in
which he was condemned for having
made all expression that was construed
as antagoniStic to the cause of organized
that the assembly should have inquired
as to whether he had been misquoted,
or at least given him an opportunity to
explain his reasons for his assertion be-
fore the resolutions were passed.
Whether Mr.. Shaw is right or wrong,
this much is true. The Trades and
Labor assembly has more than once
made the mistake of taking radical ac-
ton based solely on hearSay and the
assertions of interested parties without
making any investigation. Some dele
gate makes a statement, resolutions
of vehement nature are passed, and
the assembly finds out ultimately that
it was deceived. With all due respect to
that organization, it might command
more influence if it were accustomed to
act upon the look before-you-leap prin-
ciple.
R. J. Baldwin, one of the wealthiest
citizens of Minneapolis, who formerly
represented Hennepin county in the
state senate, has commenced one of his
annual suits against the county to
have the taxes against his homestead
set aside, on account of some
irregularity which he claims to
have discovered in the assess
ment. He has great aversion
to paying taxes, and has managed to get
out of paying them for a number of
years past through some irregularity in
the assessment. The tax in cOntrO-
versy now amounts to $349.6S, and was
assessed against his valuable home
stead, on the corner of Seventh street
and Fifth avenue south, for the year
1886.
The Tribune Sunday purposely mis-
represented Miss Frances Willard with
advocating promiscuous kissing by
women whenever they chance to meet,
and the effeminate editor fairly Shrieks
in protest that ga woman's lips are
something as sacred as mems tears"
The utterance of Miss Willard, which
the Tribune misquOteS, was taken from
the Northwestern Presbyterian, and
her remarks upon the subject of
ring of refined, wOmanly common
probation the hybrid of the Tribune
gives them. A single quotation from
the article mentioned is sufficient to in
dictate her feeling on the subject. She
says:
Il am confident we shall commend
ourselves as representatives of that
cause better by greater reserve toward
each other than our womanly
hearts might incline us to evince.
Some one has defined good man
ners as 1.-THE apotheosis of self
control" and here is a fitting OPP
portunity to exercise it. Counsel has
been had with many wise and earnest
leaders, and the unanimous opinion is
that in any public place we should con-
fine ourselves to the cordial smile. the
atfectionate utterance, and the warm
handicap of sisters cherished and be-
loved"

secured the passage of the amendments,
nor could man be called thief who
moved according to the provisions of
the law. Another report on the
condition of the affairs of the com
pany by Insurance Commissioner
Spooner was then introduced. To
this report Mr.. Davis raised
objection, that the truth of the alleged
libel could not be proved by the intro
duction of the criticism of an individual
OH the acts of the directors. The de-
Tense must prove, he continued, the eX-
istence of an iniquitous conspiracy, as
they have set forth in the publication
in the Home Diary. The court held
that the insurance commissioner re-
port was material and admitted it.
After the reading OF this report MI.
Welch was put OH the stand, and4teStl-
fed as follows:
Il became acquainted with William
F. Villas some time in 1850. | knew the
history of the Madison Fire Insurance
company from its formation to its close.
| was a director in the company and
carried a policy in it for twenty-five
years. Under the date Of Aug. /, 1861,
| published an article rejecting upon
the Madison Fire Insurance company.
The next day MI. Villas came to my
Office"
AT this point Mr.. Davis raised the OBJ
lection that the admissions of a con-
spirator could not be used against his
brother c0nsplrators. Both sidef ar
gued this question for some time. when
the court took recess to look up some
authorities on on the question.
After the recess the court said that he
found the admissions of one conspiritor
could not be used in evidence against
the others, but that the admissions
of conspirator could be used
as evidence against himself. The
indictment charges the defendant
with having published a certain defam-
atory libel of and concerning William
F. Villas, and therefore think the adj
mission of William F. Villas must be
admitted, as he is the person who claims
to have been libeled." Court
then adjourned until this morning.
W. w, Erwin, who is assisting Mr..
Davis in the prosecution, has taken no
part in any of the many arguments on
the Introduction of evidence, but is EN-
plOyed taking notes on the points made
by the counsel for the defense.

The Many Joys Which Are Expert

A gentleman who went to Dakota
some time ago to engage in stock raising
writes as follows to friend in Mime

THE HOME DIARY,
Progress of the Welch-ViIa Libel
SHIT.


When court convened yesterday
morning, the counsel for the dense con-
tinued the reading of the history of the
wrecking of the Madison Insurance
company, including the suit brought
by Seth Bartlett against the
directors of the company. In
the article Mr.. Villas is
continually alluded to as the "arch
plotter" and 1.-The boldeSt and least
scrupulous of the gang" Mr.. Davis
raised an objection to the further read
ing of the article, and said it could in
no way be called an explanation of the
libel, upon which the indictments were
founded. On the contrary, he continued,
this article is but a contin
uation of the former libel.
and there is no reason or excuse
for its introduction. After considerable
argument on both sides the court al
lowed the reading to be proceeded
with. At the beginning of the reading
of the insurance commissioners
report, on the condition of the Madison
Insurance company, Nh. Davis raised
objection for the reason that it did not
or would not appear upon the records,
as an explanation, nor us other
than an attempted justification of
the libel. The court overruled the
objection and permitted the reading to
continue, but intimated that the defense
could not prove the truth of the alleged
libel by this publication. After the
reading was concluded, the de-
Tense introduced as evidence the
act Incorporating the Madison
insurance company, as contained in the
Wisconsin statues of 1851, which, after
quite an argument, was admitted and
read. This was introduced to show how
the directors had changed the
articles of incorporation, by sub
sequent legislation, N order to
carry out their scheme. Mr.. Davis
argued that the acts OF the directors
were done by the authority of the legis-
lative acts, and the court could not enter
into the question of the motives of
the members of The legislature, who

JOINING THE CITIES.
A Committee of Fourteen Will
Handle the Entire Matter.

Handle the Entire Matter.
The meeting of the joint committee
from the Minneapolis board of trade and
the st. Paul chamber of commerce to
hear reports and to take action in regard
to forming union between the two
cities, held at the real estate exchange
yesterday afternoon, was we'll attended,
the full committee being present, with
but one or two exceptions. The sub
committee, to whom was referred the
matter of joining the two cities, made
the following report: This committee
favors the appointment by the ST. Paul
chamber of commerce and the Minneap-
from each body to constitute a joint
committee on the common interests of
the two cities, such committee to hold
monthly meetings in Minneapolis and
st. Paul alternately, and to take such
action as to it may seem eXpedient on
such matters as may be referred to it
by the bodies it represents or which
may be brought before it on orig
inal motion by any of its members.
This report was presented and unanl-
mouSly adopted after short discussion.
The name of the Dual City Joint COM
mittee was adopted, and under this
name the committee will work. ID. r.
Noyes, of st. Paul, wanted to know if
any gentleman of the committee had
decided upon any particular plan to be
followed. There was no affirmative re-
spouse. and Judge Flandreau said he
did not think it would be a good plan to
make any recommendation just yet.
Then, on motion, the committee of ten
from each city adjourned subject to the
call of the president, Judge Atwater,
after instructing the chairman of each
committee to notify their respective
bodies of the action taken and request
ing the appointment of seven members
each from the Minneapolis board of
trade and the st. Paul chamber of COM
merce. A long discussion followed as
to whether the present committee should
be continued or not after the committee
of seven from each city was formed.
