WINDOW OR NEW =?
Which Has Got the Pull on the Sec
retaryship OF the Treasury

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 5-There has
been to-day considerable political talk
about the possibility of Senator and ex-
Secretary of the Treasury William Win
dom, of Minnesota, being appointed to
the position of secretary of treasury by
elect-President Harrison. The fact that
Mr.. Harrison said few days since, after
Mr.. Allison had declined to accept that
portfolio, that he intended the next
secretary of the treasury should be tax:
en- from one of the Western states, has
gwen rise to the belief that ex Secretary
most available man for that position at
name was discussed by the New York
fact that they would oppose him,
and, in view of that, went deliberately
to work to patch up the quarrel with
Plat and Miller with view to fixing
things there so that either one of the
two New Workers could be given the
place. 1t is asserted tonight upon
what is believed to be the very best
authoritative information, that John C..
New, of Indiana, will be Mr.. Harrison g
secretary of the treasury. 1t comes from
an Indiana member of congress, who
claims to know whereof he speaks.
Shortly after election Mr.. New said to
Mr.. Harrison that he believed that the
latter should have Senator Allison in
his cabinet as secretary of the treasury.
Harrison replied by saying that he
would like to thus honor Mr.. Allison.
New then said that he would not APP
pear in the attitude of embarrassing the
President-elect, but would step quietly
out of the way in favor of Allison. Now
that Allison is out of the way New comes
to the front and wants the place. When
this conversation took place between
New and Harrison it was understood
that it was Harrison's desire to invite
Senator Allison, but if there had been
no Allison his first choice would have
been his neighbor, Mr.. New. Harrison
said at the time that he recognized that
Mr.. New was the means of bringing
about his nomination at Chicago, and he
felt under obligation to HIM.

Mr.. SEvATsoN, of Jackson county has
introduced a bill in the lower house
looking to the prevention of corruption
at elections. The principal feature j;
that it prescribes an oath which each
man must take before entering upon the
duties of an office, to the effect that he
has not used any corrupt means.t to Sc
cure his election. The bill prohibits the
use of cigars and liquor to influence
votes, and allows candidate to expend
money for the use of hall for meeting
and for the necessary expenses Of
speakers. He may also employ two
men to bring voters to the polls on cleo
ton day. How very nice it would be il
all these evils could be done away with
simply by passing Mr.. Sevaton's little
bill

THERE will be a special meeting of the
council tonight to consider matters re-
lating to the water system. The loca-
ton of the pumping works promises to
be the principal bone of contention. A
part of the council desires to have it To-
Gated near the river, while another part
wants it located several blocks further
east. 1t would seem the most reasona-
BILE that the authorities proceed to bore
on the land belonging to the city on
Rock street, where pipe is already laid.
There is no reason why flow of water
equal to any yet discovered cannot as
well be found here as elsewhere, and
the cost of piping be saved the city.
Our water system has already cost quite
enough, and now that experiments have
ceased to be problematical let the council
act wisely and save whatever cost is pos
sible.

FOR MAYOR.

1t is now but short time before the
question of who shall be selected for
Mayor of Mankato will become much
mooted by the people of our city. The
office is one which, while its emoluments
amount of mere nothing, is of great i'm
portance to taxpayers and the progress
of our city, hence interest in the sue
cessor of Mayor Pau should possess the
souls of men. The FREE PRESS does not
believe in strict partisan selection for
an office of the importance of that of
mayor. No one will question the parti-
san conviction of this paper on State and
National matters. But when it comes
down to municipal affairs it is willing to
lay aside all party feelings and support
the best man. Three years ago it be-
lieyed, in common with many of the
leading Democrats as we'll as Republic
cans, that Mr.. John A. Willard would
prove the most acceptable and valuable
man for the place, and so believing sup
ported him with all consciousness. Time
has only increased the confidence had
of Mr.. Wizards abilities IN this direc-
ton, and on inquiry we find the same
element enthusiastic for his nomination
by both parties, saying nothing of the
converts which Mr.. w. has made from
the ranks of those who formerly OPP
posed him by his graceful acquiescence
in the result of his defeat and his I'M
ceasing interest in the prosperity of
Mankato. If Mr.. Willard Is nominated
by both parties, without friction or OPP
position, he will serve, despite the sacri-
fee It will cost him of valuable time. He
will not consent to be considered for the
Office under any other conditions.
1t is about time that our people took
hold of this matter, lay politics aside
and select tirst-class business man for
mayor. The coming year demands
something of this kind, and unless 1t is
done we shall continue to stand still and
wait till the clouds roll by"

DAKOTA is making progress toward ad-
mission slowly but possibly surely. The
conferees on the territories admission
bill held a two hours session yesterday,
during which the whole situation of the
admission of territories was gone over
thoroughly, but without result. The bill
was not discussed by sections, but to-day
it will probably be taken up and con-
sidered in that way. 1t was apparent,
il is said, that there would he an earnest
effort made to agree upon bill that
could be unanimously reported, but this
will have to include New Mexico if the
House conferees are to support the
measure. They are reported to be will
ling to withdraw their objections to the
division of Dakota if this is acceded
them, and the outspoken sentiment in
the Senate Republican caucus in favor OF
the admission of New Mexico may in
duce the senatorial conferees to agree to
such a compromise.

TERRIBLE FOR A WOMAN.

Connecticut Young Lady Suffers the
Agony of Being Unable to Talk Some
times,
HAwLEYvILLE, Conn.,, Feb. IA case
of suspended animation" here is at
tracing the attention of physicians all
over the state. The subject is Miss Belle
Macarthur, aged 1S years. The attacks
come upon her periodically without
warning, lasting from five to eight days,
causing her to lose control of all physical
power and appear like one who is dead.
She is now in one of these frances. A
singular feature of the case is her senses
of feeling and hearing are rendered
painfully acute, causing her to suffer
what she describes as the most terrible
agony of knowing all that is going on
about her without the ability to express
herself. Miss McArthur's general health
is good, and when in normal condition
she is bright, witty and vivacious.

THE house committee on temperance
is having some highly interesting seances
at St. Paul. Tuesday it was entertained
by Rev. Mr.. Wooley, the evangelist,
who told very affecting story of how
far he had gone toward drunkard's
grave, and endeavored to persuade the
committee that cast iron prohibition
law is what is needed to prevent men
whose will power is weak from making
fools of themselves. Yesterday the COM
mIttee heard the other side of the ques-
ton. That is, the side on which the
practical, sincere friends of temperance
are arrayed. Not, mind you, the saloon
keepers, but good, honest, strictly tenn
perate gentlemen, who oppose the evils
of the liquor traffic as strongly as any
one, but are not, at the same time, 80
rabidly radical as to be cranky. Broth
er Wooley certainly Jared quite badly,
as we'll as the other Pharisees, common
ly called prohibitionists. Rev. saml Il.
Smith, the well-known pastor OF the
Peoples church, was one of the speak
ers, and his caustlc references to Mr..
Wooley were hot enough to "roast" Il
much tougher individual. In the course
of his remarks he said:
This is no ideal question, but one of a
practical nature. Two questions must
be asked regarding every law. Is the
law right in itself, and has the time ar
rived when the measure is demanded
and can be practically enforced. This
is no time for bandying epithets, and 1t
is i'll becoming in one lately washed
up" to stand up here and call towards
and knayes the men who have spent
time in work and prayer in the temper
ance cause when he was in the gutter.
Modesty is as becoming as 1t is frequent
ly lacking in new converts. Hlgh IL
cense is a fact, and there is no need of
discussion as to what it has accomplish
ed. Both parties agree that the work
already done is good. Now for the flu
ture. If any one can get up prohibit
tory amendment that would execute it.
self. | am for submission. You were
told Yesterday that the Scandinavians
would see to it that prohibition was en-
forced. We have laws here now that
would close every saloon in st. Paul, for
they have all violated the law. Why
don't the Scandinavians close these sa-
looms. The trouble with all those in ia
vor of the amendment is they underesti-
mate the ease with which they can &C
complish their task. AS a matter of
fact, the saloon element has so debauch-
ed the public conscience that were it not
for our high license, which makes every
man who pays it policeman, we would
be absolutely in the power of the saloon
evil. venture to say that in no time
in twenty years has there been less po-
litical corruption in st. Paul than in the
past two years. Hitherto the money
which now goes for license went to cor
rupt the votes and officeholders. Until
YOU are able to keep standing army
and to have martial law, you cannot es-
tablish State prohibition.
The speaker avowed his preference
for local option, but believed steps in
that direction should be taken very
carefully. Gen. Nettleton and Gordon
E. Cole were the other speakers, the lat
ter delivering most scathing rebuke to
the agitators who make prohibition pol
itics profession.

THIS very affecting description of a
very affecting incident is found in late
Washington special:
A lady who dined lately at the execu-
tive mansion found her gaze riveted on
Mrs. Cleveland, who was opposite her.
Turning to the president, near whom
she sat, she made some tiatterlng re-
mark as to Mrs. Cleveland's beauty.
The president quickly replied: "4es,
she is beautiful, but as much as people
admire her beauty it is TO me nothing In
comparison to the loneliness of her char
acter. In all my life have never met
a sweeter or more amiable woman. L
see SO little of her that begrudge the
hours wasted out of her presence while
am at my desk. So at these dinner
parties / have ordered the floral decora-
lions put low SO that at least l can look
across the table at her"
What an excellent proof that Mr..
Cleyeland's early education in good
manners was not neglected-this thing
of Boosting of his wife's good qualities at
a dinner table. We are disposed TO
think he don't know any better than to
make such breaks, though friend wick
edly suggests that the champagne must
have been unusually strong on the &C.
casion referred to.

In seriousness, however, perhaps this
thing of having an English worshipper to

all right, but we hope to see Gen. Har-

is not noted for his loyalty to blue blood
