Labor circles are deeply intesested in
the action of Gov. Merriam relative to
the appointments of the two depoty labor
commissioners. The feeling of the labor
organizations of st. Paul is prepOnder-
0usly in favor of the appointment of j.
A. Johnson and j. f. Cronin, who are
we'll yerSed in the immediate require
ments of the working people, so far as
their condition can be elevated by
state aid. This feeling is not
shared by the organized working
men of Minneapolis, who, naturally
enough, desire one of the deputy COM
missioners to be drawn from that city.
A petition to that effect is now on file
at the executive department. 1t looks
as il Minneapolis would like the earth.
The fact is ignored that Commissioner
Lamb is a Minneapolis man, as is also
his secretary, J. P. McGaughey. st.
Paul will obtain nothing but what is
Just if the deputy commissioners hail
from this city. While organized labor
of the two cities is divided upon where
is undivided as to the character of the
men appointed deputy labor commits
sioners. The labor bureau has not been
a bowling success the last two years
that is, the work accom-
plished, and the end for which
it was created to attain. Success can
never be attained so long as the bureau
is trammelled by political influences;
the commissioners should be allowed
some independence and not be bound,
body and soul, to one political faction.
The appointment, therefore, of mere
politicians as labor commissioners would
be simply farcical. No good can accrue
to the people in whose interests the
bureau was established. The. commits
sioners should be men thoroughly ac-
quainted with the labor problems of the
day; they should also have some SYM
pathy and feeling with the working
people themselves. Politicians rarely
extend their education in this direction.
How to fill a caucus and secure an Office
is more in their line.

treme case, and because It seems to me
the best. and because it seems pro-
foundly true, we accept 1t as the s0lu-
ton.
Summed up, the experience ends with
this: Here Is man Of the first genius,
reared In time when the very f0unda-
lions of religion have been shaken by
controversy, standing In the midst Of,
the giants who have been hurting mis-
siles at each other, g0aded on by every
circumstance to consider q subject
which his great mind was capable of
grasping; and this man tells us that,
having studied man apart from theO-
logical bias, and having no tendency to
traditional faith, he still believes the
history of man demands the larger view
of life-the existence of a plying God
the spirit of Christ and the hope Of
Immortality. Such evidence, coming
practically from outside sources, should
be of great value to those who doubt,
and canse us all to panse and ask our
selves If there is no deep lesson for us
in his experience? ~

BYRNEs Is BOSS.
The National Journeymen Horse
shoers' Association Will Hold a
Convention TO-DAY.


The fifteenth annual convention of
the National Journeymen Horseshoers'
association will convene in st. Paul at
9 o'clock this morning in the Clifton
hotel hall. The national union is CON-
posed of sixty-four subordinate organ
izations, about forty of which will be
represented i'll the convention. A great
deal of routine business is to be dis
posed of. and President Thomas +.
Byrnes, of Brooklyn, who arrived yes
terday, stated that the convention would
undoubtedly continue until Fridaynight.
Perhaps the most important matter to
unions endowment fund. Under the
present constitution of the order all
working members are assessed 10 cents
on the death Of any member In good
standing. 1t is proposed to double the
assessments. Speaking of the eight
hour movement, President Byrnes stated
that the present convention would take
no action in the matter. as there seemed
to be general understanding that the
much-discussed question should go over
until 1890, when all labor organizations
will make concerted effort for
a reduction in hours. About fifty
delegates are expected, of whom the
following were registered at the Clifton
last night: Thomas F. Byrnes, Brook

nation.
The desirability of making the suburbs
of the city attractive for residential
purposes appears to be ignored by mem
ljers of the common council. They have
decreed that public lighting Of the
streets by electricity must cease, and
the result is that at night the suburban
portions of the city present dOleful
appearance. The abolition of the cleo
trio lights was agreed upon on the score
OF economy, the council having been
shocked to find that with the electricity
there had been burning, Immediately
below, gas and gasoline lamps. 1t quite
proper that either the lamps or the
electric lights should be cut off; but
why the electric lights? Certainly the
lamps could be more easily dispensed
with. The melancholy Jet of light which
they display is merely sufficient to en-
able the pedestrian to distinguish how
dark the night is. Lighting by electric
fly is great attraction to the city, and
in dispensing with its use the council
has taken backward step. 1t would
be better to have continued the electric
lights the whole night, and extended
their number rather than cut them on
altogether. A vigorous protest will
shortly be made by the residents of Day
toms bluff and other parts OF the city,
who now find themselves without
street light worthy of the name.

WAR TO THE KNIFE.

Residents Of Dayton's Bluff Can
not Agree Upon Site for
Park.
War continues to wage among the
residents On Dayton's bluff regarding
the location Of the proposed park.
There is little doubt, as natural site,
the Indian mounds cannot be exceeded
for park by any other site On the bluff,
or even the whole city. 1t is singular,
however, that when the park commits
sioners selected this site for park
there was the same vehement cutlery
against the scheme as there now is
against the proposed Lincoln park. The
latter park may benefit certain spec ula-
tors, but instead of fighting against
their own interests, the people OH the
bluff should see that those benefited
pay proper assessment for the en-
HANGED value of their land. 1t is now
questionable, owing to the exorbitant
price OF the site, whether the Indian
mounds can be secured. Too much
time has already been wasted over gen
eralities. There should be a park on
Dayton'S bluff at once.

CROSSFIELD CUSSED.
The Legal Light Of Browns VAL

The Legal Light OF Browns Val
ley Has 1t In for q Ticket
Puncher.
A piece of stupidity Of the most ag-
gravating description caused Hon. A.
s. Crossfield to utter cuss words yester-
day evening. He had ticket on the
Milwaukee road to Milbank, $. d. he
was going out on the 7:15 train to at
tend the conference with the Indians
OF the Sisset0n reservation to-day. The
pOw-wOw had been arranged for to-day
on purpose to give Mr.. CroSsfeld an
opportunity to be present. Having
lived on the reservation he knows every
Indian personally, and his services
were much desired in the negotiations.
AT GAS D. m. he was walking up and
down the depot, thinking of home and
things, and putting delicate stream of
blue cigar smoke from his thin lips.
When 7:l0 came he walked to the
wicket with friend and presented his
ticket to the man at the gate, who said
Train not made up yet" Mr.. Crossfield
looked at his watch, remarked that it
was about, time it was, and stepped
to let the stream of people pass. A
train was standing at the platform,

not that the MilDank train?" asked Mr..
Crossfeld, when his Waterbury showed
7:14115. No." replied the man, and a
few seconds later the train moved off.
1t only took a few minutes for the legal
light of Browns valley to discover that
this was the train that he ought to have
taken. Then the blue tobacco smoke
from his thin lips came in great rolling
puffs like thunder clouds; while flashes
of Iivid lightning darted from their
midst. A snlfurOus smell suffuSed the
surcharged air as the storehouse Of Mr..
CrOsSield's pent-up wrath broke forth
in deluge of reproachful remarks on
the head of the stupid ticket puncher.
He found there was no way of getting
to Milbank before late this afternoon,
when the pow-wOw would be all over.
He therefore determined to let the In
dams go to blazes, and went back to bis
room to spend good night, leaving
orders to be called in time for the morn
ing train to his home in Browns valley.
He VOWS that that man shall lose his
job, if letters to the general manager of
the road will bring it about. ii

Protecting the State.

Spectators who hailed the passage of
the law granting authority for the lease
of state mining lands are doomed to dis
appointment. State Auditor Braden
continues to refuse to issue certificate
to any of the 200 applicants. His object
is to protect the state, When the law
was approved the GLOBE pointed out
that the royalty to be received by the
state-25 cents per ton on all minerals
was too low. Capt. Braden was pre-
viously assured that the royalty was
fair and just. Notwithstanding all the
assurances made to him-assurances, he
says. by men competent to know-he
will not issue a certificate to lease any
land for mining until more convincing
testimony is obtained.

SUNDAY SKETCHES.

Hundreds of men. women, children,
babies in arms and babies in buggies
crossed the new uptown bridge yester-
day afternoon. Many people, having
read the report that Mayor. Smith had
driven over in buggy, supposed the
bridge was open for travel, and came
from all parts of the city to see the
sight and take trip over. The people
in charge OF the structure were at first
disposed to keep the public from Cross
ing, allowing only men to so on, but the
crowd became SO large that they finally
allowed any and all to cross. there be-
ing signs posted at each end warning
everybody to keep off the bridge"
thus relieving the contractors from all
responsibility for accidents. The bridge

Will FACE THE MUSIC.
Young Cakes Ames and His
Bride Return to ST. Paul.

A little over three months ago the
gossips of st. Anthony Park were given
a rare morsel in the shape of a sensa-
tional elopement to Hudson, Wis, a
quiet marriage, and wedding trip to
the East. The affair was more inter-
esting from the fact that there was an
angry mamma Of the young man in the
case, and numerous friends and
admirers of the young lady, who
looked upon her strange matri-
monial escapade with less charity than
might have been exercised. This may
have been due to the fact that the
young man was not of age, that the
young woman was his senior, and that
he was heir to snug little fortune,
leaving room for speculation on possible
mercenary motives on her part. The
parties. 1t will be easily remembered,
were Miss Emily Watson, assistant to
Postmaster Pickard at the park, and
young Cakes Ames, son of Mrs. Higgin-
son, and nephew of Gov. Ames, of
Massachusetts. 1t mattered not,
however, what said the people
of st. Anthony Park, OF the
people of St. Paul and Minneapolis,
or the people of all Minnesota, for that
matter, as the match was evidently the
work of Cupid, and the young couple
went right on enjoying themselves in
Eastern cities, as young people will.
Sc 1eral days were spent in Chicago, and
they then went to Detroit, where they
secured fine apartments at the Russell
house and enjoyed an extended honey
moon, blissfully unconscious of the so
cial storm that racked st. Anthony Park
society. But they couldn't remain in
Detroit forever, and it was finally de-
cided to come home and face the music.
This they did as quietly as they eloped,
but their friends made great deal less
fuss bout it, and that they are in St.
Paul will be news to all but their more
intimate acquaintance. Several days
since Mr.. and Mrs. Ames returned and
engaged quarters at 8 East Tenth street.
They have since moved. however, and
have settled down to the stern realities
of life in apartments at 13 East Tenth
street. A GLOBE reporter called there
yesterday. but found them ont of town,
and it was surmised that they had taken
advantage of the calm May Sabbath day
to settle matters with the people at the

The 1885 train on the Manitoba last
night carried large party of st. Paul
capitalists and real estate men in special

town. Among those who left were

apolis by about thirty more. Some of
these gentlemen will return Tuesday
morning; but, as the tickets are good
for ten days, and hotel bills in Water
town are free, some of them are likely
to stay little while longer.
