We clip the following from the
Duluth News. The News asks a
mighty pertinent question, and one
we respectfully submit to our city
council. The publisher and job printer
is the only business in a own not in
some way protected, and we do not
think it is fair shake ut all:
The News would like to ask the city
authorities if newspapers are not prop
erty as much as books? Whether
home publishers are not as much en-
titled to protection as home bo0ksel-
lers? If Thomas J. Gibson, who has a
communication in another colmun,
ought to be fined for soliciting orders
for a Masonic directory published IN
St Paul, why canvasserS for Subscrip-
tionS to newspapers published in ST.
Paul and Minneapolis are not equally
guilty? Some of the St Paul papers
also solicit job work, and the detective
and police force of the city should see
to it that their agents are arrested and
fined every time they solicit All order
or a subscription without license.

WHY THESE TEARsi

Who would be President? See what a
pretty ses. of trouble surrounds General
Harrison. His best friends speak of him as
nearly worried to death over the compost
tion of his Cabinet Historians in Wash
ington picture for us the piteons spectacle
of politician coming from the presence of
the President-elect In a shower of tears
tears shed not because the politician him
self had been unable to secure the postofiee
at Matawan for his brother-in-law, but at
the sorrowful plight of General Harrison,
Is the entrance to the White House little
less gloomy than the passage to the tomb,
or are the imaginations of the people in
General Harrison's neighborhood over-ac-
tive? In short, is General Harrison really
spelling his complexion and dabbling his
shirt bosom with briny tear drops, or has
his persistent taciturnity and above all, his
refusal to publish the names of his Cabinet
officers driven those who haveto write about
him to pen stories that have more beauty
than truth about them?
For our part we think that General Har-
rison is not worrying nearly as much about
affairs as are good many Republicans
possessed Of hopes and ambitions in the line
of Office. The character of the President
elect, as far as discovered at this day, shows

A Fashionable wrinkle.

The social ball keeps rolling. Even as the
song of the dying swan is beyond its other
strains melodious, SO the final routs of our
leaders of fashion surpass in splendor the most
gorgeous of their predecessors. No new dish
this winter has whetted to fresh enjoyment the
jaded palates of the gourmets of Washington;
but the general belief is that feature of
fashion in the matter Of ladies' dress has been
evolved this season from the inventive brain
of some talented home modiste, allude to
the ornamentation of light colored evening
silks with bands of fur, a juxtaposition of ma
terials not hitherto seen in bathrooms. The
pink silk train trimmed with brown fur, worn
by Mrs. Cleveland, has been vastly admired.
It was in this dress that the Ladies' Press As
sociation of Washington desired to have por-
trait in oils of the charming young wife of Mr.
Cleveland, to be hung in the White House; but
the project, for some reason, came to nothing.
Mrs. Paran Stevens, the fashionable New York
lady who is visiting Mrs. Whitney, has worn,
once or twice, superb evening robe of dove
gray plush, trimmed with bands of the silver
fox fur. Even chinchilla is FUSED for evening
wear, torquoise velvet dress being specially
liked, trimmed with wide bands of the little
South American rodent.

knows that little white wicker chair, enlaced

1t is obvious that our latter-day historians
affect Macauiay rather than Gibbon.
Macaulay, when he set out to write his
famous history, said that while his work
should be as veracious as mortal man could
bring forth in history, nevertheless he intended
that it should be as full of fascination as a
fairy tale. The Macaulays of to-day, if they
may not achieve yeracity, are bond to ring in
the fascination. Poor Garfeld's debut as a
President was made pioturesque.by his kiss to
his aged mother. Cleveland's marriage and
the wonderful social success of his pretty wife
have been the points of charm of his admins
tration. Harrison stamps his entrance upon
tenure of his great Office by handing baby
out of the carriage before he descends himself.
This graceful act endows the man with won
derful fascination for every mother insthe

From Saturdays Philadelphia Record.J
Hotel-keeper Boldt was astounded last night
when he received a letter upon which was q
skull and cross-bones and the warning that an
army of half-starved tramps were going to de-
rail his special train, which left last night for
Washington with all the tons of provender that
will be fed to the hungry throng at the inaugu-
ration ball, but he was restored to his normal
condition, when party of sympathizers in
formed him that there would be a gatling gun
company on the cow-catcher of the engine to
frustrate any such diabolical attempt. Now
that all the arrangements have been completed
Mr.. Boldt Is thanking his stars. He has erect
ed, within the past few days. in the rear of the
Pension Department building, at Washington,
an edifice 200 feet long, which is as complete IN
its appointments as any modern hotel Kitchen.
He will be given from Saturday noon until
Tuesday morning to occupy the premises, and
he says he will have to hustle to get out in
time
In the kitchen there are 100 electric lights,
six steam boilers, large store rooms and accom-
modations for over 100 people. There will be
300 servants of all kinds in the place. including
15 chefs. 10 head walters and % cooks. besides
all the dishwashers and other subordinates.

THE RETIRING PRESIDENT.

Tomorrow President Cleveland will step
out of the White House; and the party
whose representative he was will turn from
the exercise of executive and legislative
power to its more accustomed functions of
opposition and criticism.
There has been a great deal of ink and
some temper wasted since the election, rather
more BY Democratic than by Republican
writers. in trying to explain how the change
came about. What is the good of these
controversies now? The general public, by
whom men and measures are fairly judged,
are in no sort of doubt as to the "whys"
and ''wherefores. They know that, de-
spite few serious mistakes of Judgment,
Mr.. Cleveland filled the Office of President
honestly, capably, creditably. They also
know that he and his party were defeated,
not because of faults in the Presidents ex-
ecutive course, but because he and his ad-
visors fatuously staked all on policy of
tariff reduction which was a menace to the
business interests of the whole country
The very critics who have latterly been lay
ing their burden of defeat and disappoint-
ment on the Presidents shoulders were but a
few months ago loudest in urging their par
ty after the "will O. the wisp" of free trade.
which led to the dismal swamp of disaster.
The estimate which the country enter
tertsins of the retiring President, and
which history must record, will not be based
upon narrow personal prejudices. Repub-
licans and Democrats, alike, will give Mr.
Cleveland credit for doing the best he knew
how while in the White House. His fail
ure will be attributed mainly, and no doubt
rightly, to the fact of his having got beyond
his depth on the tariff matter, and to his
obstinacy in making that the sole issue of
last November.
There are few persons, of any political
persuasion, who are not ready to extend to
Mr.. Cleveland, as he steps out of Office, a
fair share of the good will which all classes,
without respect to partisanship, will to-.
morrow cheerfully bestow upon his sue
cessor, General Harrison.

THE CROWD. AT THE CAPITAL.

Of course the whole country is interested
in the events now transpiring in Washing
ton. 1t is not only natural, but fitting and
proper that this should be so. But granting
this, we fail to see the reason why the entire
population of these Unite1 States should
exhibit an uncomfortable impulse to rush to
the Capital City as if it were the scene of
the greatest show on earth. New Presidents
are not a novelty; we have had them at in
tervals of four and eight years ever since
the Constitution was adopted, and are likely
to keep on making and inaugurating them
at the same rate as long as this Republic
shall stand.
Why, then, should such fuss be made
over the simple ceremonies attending the
transfer OF the executive power from the
hands of one man to those of another? The
tendency shown in recent years toward
making more and more of a lavish display
on each succeeding Inauguration day is one
of the foolish eccentricities in which this
great American people delight to indulge
occasionally. The average citizen seems to
be different being altogether from what he
used to be. He delights in crowds, martial
music and pompous professions, but Why he
does SO no philosopher has yet attempted to
explain. He is welcome to whatever salts
faction he can get out of visit to over
crowded Washington at the present time.
We wish him Joy, though we hardly think
he will find it there. If he returns a sadder
and wiser man he will probably co include
that his presence at the capital on March
four years hence is not absolutely essential
to the welfare of this nation.
