The Lowry Compsny-And now comes
the defendant and for answer says it is

them since away back. Wherefore, the

the club house as one would
like to see. There is no use trying to
force them. There is little driving in
the direction of the Out of Town club
nowadays. Formerly that was one of
the principal drives, at a time when
there were no drives in st. Paul. When
Como park is completed, and its boule-
ward gets to be the resort of lovers of
horse flesh, there may be a revival of
interest in the club. But at present it
looks as if club made up of members
from both cities, and with its building
on the river bank somewhere in the
Midway district, would be popular.

LOCAL LACONICS.

Jupiter and his moon undoubtedly
had the expected bout last night, but
science in the neighborhood of st. Paul
was none the wiser, as one of Observer
Lyons clouds happened along aud oc-
Quilted both planet and satellite.
A correspondent who wells his ident-
ity beneath the modest signature "CitI-
gen." takes exception to the action of
Commissioner Boyd in cutting down the
abstracting force. He thinks cut. if
one is necessary, should be made in the
cust0dian's department, and offers to do
for 81, 200 per annum that which now
costs $4,000, including the cuStodian'S
fishing and Shooting trips.
Postmaster Ankeny, of Minneapolis,
is quoted by paper Of that city, as say
ing he knows nothing of the new letter
boxes, and that ST. Panl is one of the
small towns always kicking. Doubtless
the quotation is spurious one. as MI.
Chicago, ST. Paul, San Francisco and
other large cities will be provided with
the new boxes in due season.
The chamber of commerce should pass
few street car ordinances. as it appar-
emily knows just what ordinances it
Ehouli pass.
1t should be borue in mind that those
gentlemen who are fighting for alum
bak n powder, in the courts, are
merely opposing the new law and not
defending the insect powders-beg par
don, the baking powders.
The numerous Withdrawals from the
race for secretary of the school board,
since the salary was cut down, would
indicate that it was not pure patriotism
that prompted the rush for that de-
Ightful little sinecure.

A FINANCIAL GIBRALTAR,
So ST. Paul Is Regard ed---Views of
COMPTROLLER Roche.

So ST. Paul Is Regard ed---Views of
Comptroller Roche.
City Comptroller Roche is in receipt
of letter from H. w. Cannon, presi-
dent of the Chase National bank, of
New York city, and financial agent for
the city of St. Paul, in which that dis
tinguished financier says: "Your cir
cular letter of the I'D, in relation to the
last sale of city bonds, has been re-
ceived. l heartily congratulate you
upon the price paid" Coming from
such source, this is considered high
compliment to the financial standing of
the city of st. Paul. The circular al
luded to in Mr.. Cannon's letter is that
sent out by the comptroller announcing
the issue of 1884, 900 worth of bonds for
bridges, sewers and hospital buildings,
as authorized by an act of the legisla-
ture. The circular contained the acts
ana the resolutions of the city council
authorizing the issue of the bonds, and
also contained statement of the city
debt, which, including the latest
issue of bonds, amounts to Sc, 1885,
$50. That amount is inclusive
OF the S2,360,000 used in the
purchase, enlaTging and extension of
the st. Paul water works, now owned
by the city. The water works property
was purchased by the city in 1882. The
plan Of purchase was such as to relieve
the city from any tax to pay interest on
the water works bonds. The interest
is paid out of the receipts of the water
works department When the city
bought the water works it acquired
along with the plant and franchises
a quantity of land, which has grown
very valuable, until now the property
is estimated to be sufficiently valuable
to pay Off the whole city debt. A syndi-
cate could be easily found that would
bind itself to pay the debt if the water
works were turned over to it. But that
would not be good policy. The city of
st. Paul to-day has a financial standing
that is unequaled by any munic-
ipality in the United States,
said Mr.. Roche, with suspicion of elo-
quence in his throat. II am sometimes
asked if we have sinking fund.-" said
he. MY reply is that l am glad we
have not. A sinking fund always means
additional taxation. What need have
we of sinking fund, when our whole
debt is not 5 per centum of our assessed
valuation? As fast as the money comes
into the treasurer's hands it is paid out,
and the people can see where it goes.
There is no reason why we should levy
tax for a sinking fu d. We levy the
tax direct to take up the bonds every
year, and the money so levied is used
only for the purpose for which it is
gathered. 1t can easily be seen that if
the bonds were issued under per cent
limit, the assessed valuation would be
Increased. Our present method keeps
a check on the issuance of bonds. One
of the dangers in having sinking fund
would be that the legislature would be
continually Matching up pretexts for
spending it,

Tom Lowry's street railway company
Yesterday filed its answer in the injunc-
ton suit instituted by the city. No
startling disclosures are made i'll the
document, but it simply reiterates the
company'S claim to the exclusive own
ership of the streets of st. Paul. The
answer is very long, the first half of it
being devoted to a legal history of the
street railway company. The Lowry
people claim the right to occupy the
streets of st. Paul by virtue of the ordl-
nanceS passed in 1868 and 1872. They
further claim that their right was made
exclusive by the ordinance passed
in 1881 and ratified by the legislature in
1888. 1t is stated that Sixth and st.
Peter streets are actually needed by the
company for the purpose of MAINTAIN
ing and protecting their system. Fur
Their along in the answer the Lowry
company states that they might have
been" willing to relinQuish Sixth q st.
Peter streets from street railway SerV-
ice had they deemed it a ''beneht to the
public" to do so. But they would under
no circumstances surrender those THOR
OughfareS to rival company. 1t is
claimed that when the Sixth ward and
QUIET duUiIlOES Wclo lllCOi pOlNCOU III eiio
city limits they became subject to the
franchises held by the company. In
fact, about the only street in the city
that Mr.. Lowry valves claim to is Sum-
nit avenue. The act of April "a, 1889,
mentioned in the city's complaint, is
termed unconstitutional by the defense.
The defendants ask for Judgment
against the city, that it take nothing by
its action. and that the defendant COM
pany have relief as follows: That the
plaintiff (the city be restrained and
enjoined from passing any ordinance or
doing any other act to interfere with the
rights of the defendant company, as
provided by its franchises.

DOING GREAT WORK.
The Newsboys' Home Management
and How 1t Operates.


and How 1t Operates.
The committee of the NewsbOys'
Home association. of which E. W. Peet
is chairman, held very interesting
meeting a few days since, at which the
prospects of this charity, i'll which the
entire community is SO much inter
ested, were discussed at length. Since
the 1st of May, 1888, when it was
started, the home. under the direction
of Miss Johnston, has been Furnishing.
The good accomplished through this
inStrumentality may be appreciated by
the fact that thirty boys have been
taken from the streets and established
i'll good places, where most of them are
now at work supporting themselves,
with every prospect of becoming good
citizens. Unfortunately sickness has
compelled Mr.. Howard, who undertook
the experimenting of the entire bust
mess of the association, to resign. In
consequence the work of the club room
and possible industrial school connected
with it has been suspended, until some
one can be found to take his place. This
position is very difficult one to fill,
and at the same time without a proper
person in the place, this branch of the
work cannot be continued. The duties
OL Tic SupOTlHteDucLG are DTISHl eHuu-
ciated by the statement that he is,
under the committee the self-appointed
guardian of every boy in st. Paul who
has no natural guardian. Who can OF
will perform those duties? The COM
desires to get every such boy under
some moral RESTRAINT, and, if possible, to
keep him from the road to ruin. Upon the
superintendent they have to rely for this
work. In addition to this outside mis-
sionarr work he is the general agent
of the association, soliciting subscrip-
ton from the business men of the city
reporting the Subscribers who are in
ter9sted in the work the progress made.
To him also is eonfided the charge and
conduct of the club rooms, where all
boys are invited to come during the aft
noon and evening; to provide teachers
and prescribe instruction and enter
tainment for the boys when there. In
time it is hoped 10 established some
sort of industrial school in connection
with this club. Should this come under

would be glad to nnder this work, the
committee would be pleased if he would
