THE Minnesota ROSTER.

A very important bill before the legis-
lature is the one providing for the col
lection and preservation in permanent
form of the history of the Minnesota
troops who served in the late civil war.
The bill proposes an act of simple JUS
tice to the brave men whose patriotic
services have never been fully recog-
niZed by the state, nor will it do to post
pone action in this matter much longer.
We are now nearly quarter of cen
fury away from the close of the civil
war, and the stirring events of that
period are to-day only "reminiscences.
Many, very many of the old Minnesota
soldiers are dead, Others have removed
from the state, so that even now diff
Guilty will be experienced in getting
complete histories of them all. Each
year that the matter is postponed will
add to the difficulty, and if it is the
purpose of the people of this state to
perform this act of justic e to our war
veterans, work should be commenced
right away. AS explained by the adj
jutant general, the Minnesota military
records are in an imperfect state Oh ac-
count of the partial destruction of them
in the old capitol fire. 1t will first be
necessary to send to Washington to get
complete roster of the Minnesota
troops who served the nation in the late
war. and then the work of gathering
the history OF each individual soldier
will have to be done. AS time goes by
the Importance of this work will more
and more impress itself upon the peo-
pie, but after the lapse of few more
years it will be too late.

DUKE OF MONTANA.

1t seems to be the fate of Republican
presidents particularly to suffer annoy
anceS by reason of the indiscretiOns Of
members Of their own families. What
Mr.. LINCOLN endured on account of
peculiarly distressing domestic affection
is part of the unwrItten history of the
country. The troubles that Gen. GRANT
had with his boys, who were disposed to
traffic in their fathers fame, are known
to all. And now it appears that Gen.
HARRISoN'S administration is to be
beSet with similar misfortune. The
president has son who imagines that
by right of the blood relations existing
between himself and his father he is en-
titled to handle political oar whenever
he has mind to, and is accordingly lay
ing his plans to create dukedom out of
Montana for his own especial uses. Of
course the good people of Montana re-
sent the self-conStituted dictatorship
that RUSSELL HARRISON proposes 10
establish over them: but for all that, the
young man is handling the federal
patronage in such way asto leave no
mistake of his intention to bring the
rebelli0us subjects to terms. The pres
ident is an indulgent parent. who loves
TO humor his boys whims; and, as is
generally the case under such circum-
stances, the kid is getting away with
the old man. RUSSELL wants to be a
senator, and with the senators stand.
The father is strong believer in the
heredity of Office and the virtue of
Of ha
things they have done for him: so he
naturally enough encourages the boy in
his senatorial aspirations. The politi-
cal field was too crowded IN Indiana for
both father and son, so the junior
partner of the HARRISON firm was sent
to Montana to establish branch office,
just in time to catch the statehood
boom. Now the senior member of the
firm Is in position to help the junior
partner by turning over to him ali the
federal patronage in that section, and
the young man is taking advantage of it.
If young Mr.. HARRISON is a man
Of such high order of abilities that he
could be singled out as fit representa-
tive for the new state of Montana in
the United States senate, he will have
no need Of federal patronage to boost
him into position. If he is not man
of unusual ability. and has not con-
Quoted himself in way to command
the respect and confidence of the Mon
tana people. then his candidacy, under
the circumstances, is a positive insult
TO the intelligence of the people
whom he proposes to represent.
More than that, it is discreditable
to the administration at Washington.
We have not yet drifted so far toward
plutocracy or aristocracy that any man
should owe his elevation in politics to
the accident of birth.
We apprehend that the people of
Montana are of the opinion that every
tub should stand ON its own bottom:
and when the time comes for the new
state to make up its senatorial jewels,
the selection will be made without
reference to the eXtraneous conditions
that young Mr.. HARRISON is trying to
create in his favor.

USES FOR THE SURPLUS.

In these days of national dependency.
when we find ourselves on the verge of
war with Germany, without even the
shadow of navy at our disposal, it is
refreShingly gratifying to hear brave
old Admiral PORTER explain how an
impr0mptu naval armament can be pro-
vided, and how that, in sixty days after
the breaking out of war, our American
vessels would be chasing the German
fleet from the high seas or sending their
ships to Davy Jones' locker as fast as
we could get to them. We say this kind
of talk is encouraging, and yet it would
not be safe to rely exclusively for ma
tional protection on such an improvised
navy as Admiral PORTER suggests. We
might be fooled in the reliability of
navy gotten together in the haste that
would be required in such an emer-
gency, and then we would be in bad
box. An ounce of prevention is always
worth pound of cure, and wise gov
eminent never postpones until to-mor-
row what should be done to-day.
If, in the event of a war with
Germany, we were expecting an
ihFaoioii, hdttelS "ouiu Ue ehtlrely
different from where we are expected
to go out upon the high seas to engage
in fight with the Germans. Thus the
best part of Admiral PoRTER's sugges-
tions is that the big pile of surplus in
the treasury be utilized at once in fitting
out and equipping navy that would be
a credit to the nation, and at the same
time would be valuable in deterring
osher nations from picking quarrel
with lie

GLADSTONE'S LETTER.
The Climax of the Irish Crisis AL
most Reached---Signs OF the

LONDON, March 14.-Mr. Gladstone
has written a long letter to Mr.. Beau
foy, the Gladstonian candidate for par
lament in Remington, in which
he says: 1.-THE Irish crisis
has become acute to an I'M
usual degree, and is pressing itself
beyond all former experience on the
mind and conscience of the people of
England. A great conspiracy, which
aimed at the stabbing of the vital in
tereStS of ireland by means of forged
letters, through the honor of Mr.. Par
nell has been disgracefully exploded, and
those who urged the inquisition with
such eager glee. are now only seeking
means to disown and evade RESPONSE
bility." After a reference to crime in
Ireland, Mr.. Gladstone says; Until
the last few days the firm and constant
administration of degrading prison
treatment to all alike by Mr.. Balfour
was applauded as the true secret at
length discovered of the well-gov-
erning of Ireland. But this very day
the hair-clipping and similar practices
were condemned in the house of COM
mons by the ministry itself. That
party which at the election exceeded us
IN numbers by nearly l20, has just re-

THE LINGUAGRAPH.

Among the coming devices of EDISON

whlStiing for down brakes 1t is all a
matter of valves, key-boards and pipes.
At crossings and stations it will send
out a piercing but melodious voice of
warning. Of course the ponderous
diapason will be heard all through the
train, and can be adjusted to announce
the approaching station. 1t may enable
unfamiliar passengers to guess at the
name of the place, which the present
cheap elocution does not often render
possible. If the device does this work
On the RAILROADS, there is hardly limit
to its possible uses. 1t will dispense
with the human voice in a large and
varied field. If unsteady inclined, it
can entertain travellers with melody, and
perhaps song.

NEW YORK, March 13.-At the meet
ing of directors of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul Railroad company
to-day, a resolution was adopted chang
ing the fiscal year so as to end June so
instead of Dee. 81. A dividend was
then declared of 50 per share on the
preferred stock, payable April 26 to
holders of record Oh April 10. This
action complicates the relations of the
common stock to the preferred
stock. The preferred is entitled
to per cent per annum before the
common receives anything. If the
dividend last spring of 21s per cent on
common is charged to earnings of the
preceding year, and the dividend last
September of 211s per cent is charged to
earnings of 1888. then per cent will
have to be paid on the preferred next
fall in order to entitle the common to
receive dividends. Or if the % per
cent dividend of September. and the
present per cent dividend should be
calculated in the year ending June 80,
1889, then the common could receive
nothing until the preferred had re-
ceiyed per cent in the year ending
Jone so, 1890. 1t was not believed
before the meeting that any dividend
would be declared, but the extension
of the fiscal year made sone possible.
No other business was transacted, and
the expected resignation of Western
directors was not received. The reason
assigned for changing the fiscal year is
the fact that the interstate commerce
commission, the railway commissions of
various states, and the Wisconsin legis-
lature now require railway reports to
be made for the fiscal year ending June
80. Outsiders, however, explain the
action as means of getting around the
caused by the fact that the
surplus applicable to dividends as of
December 81 amounted to less than

HUNGRY STOCKHOLDERS.
Warm Times at the Illinois Cen
trail Meeting Yesterday.

- 81 ASotOkOdys
CHICAGO, March l3.-Things were
lively indeed at the annual meeting of
the stockholders of the Illinois Central
railroad held to-day at the general Offices
of the company in this city. The
livelIness was due to the presence of F.
B. Cooley, of Hartford, Conn.,,
who was on hand to repre-
sent certain Eastern stockholders
dissatisfied with the present manage
ment of the road. Mr.. Cooley aud
Daniel B. How came West to find out
why certain Western roads, including
the Illinois Central and the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy, have been al
lowed to fall so far behind in their earn
lngs, and to prevent, if possible, the re-
election of the officers who are held
responsible for the depreciation of the
value of the properties. When the
meeting convened to-day these gentle
men were on hand, accompanied by E.
q. Mason, a Chicago lawyer, and pre-
pared to propose various reforms
in the interests of the parties
they represented. President Stuyye-
SAINT Fish was present, but contrary to
expectation, Vice President E. w. Har-
riman, against whom the recent attacks
of the dissatisfied shareholders have
OCCu QltGCtGu, ulu IlUt dU-

rect0rs, the salient features of which
have already been published, was sub
United. Mr.. Thompson offered a reso-
luton approving the report. which was
adopted against the negative votes
of Mr.. Cooley and his friends.
After the hottest kind of
debate, the stockholders proceeded to
the elections of director. There were
five persons to be chosen. B. f. Aver,
Walter Luttgren and John W. Auchin-
Gloss were reelected, leaving two va
cancies, caused by the withdrawal of
John Elliott and Levi P. Morton, to
be filled. Messrs. Cooley and Mason
had proposed three names to
take the places of the incum-
bents, namely, George:BlisS, Marshall
Field and Byron l.. Smith, but their
1000 votes only were recorded against
the reelection Of the outgoing direct
Ors. George Bliss, however, was
unanimously elected to succeed John
Elliott. The name of G.. M. Da Costa
was proposed to fill the other vacancy.
but it was found that his stock was not
registered, and, as it was growing late,
an adjournment was taken until to-
morrow, when the election will be corr

in answer to Lord Salisbury's dispatch
of Dec. "a, Mr.. Bayard held that the
Sackville case was entirely dlssimiiar to
that of Bulwer at Madrid, because Bull
wer received the approval of his
government, while Lord SackviiIe's
was personal misconduct, with no sug-
gestion of approval from his gov
eminent. Is would, Mr.. Bayard de-
clared, be far better to suspend diplo-
matte relations than continue them on
the basis of such right of interference
with the domestic politics of other
states as appeared to be assumed, and
under which. if admitted, the independ-
ence and dignity of the injured nation
would perish.

BONANZA FARMING.

An English syndicate is reported to
have purchased 100000 acres of land
in New Mexico, and is fitting it up for
the largest farm in the world. 1t is to
be devoted to the various departments
OF production, not making stock the
leading feature. The owners have great
wealth, and will operate it with ten
antry from their alien residence. I'm
mense farms have been found in Dakota
to be detrimental to the development of
the country and building UP of society,
and there should be means for defeat
ing their formation by the use of new
or government lands. They drain the
country as far as possible. and prevent
its settling up with the men who will
make permanent homes. But fortu-
nately, great farms do not generally
last long in this country. a few severe
losses are apt to discourage the owners,
and they cut up the vast domain into
small farms and sell.
