Citizens of West Seventh Street
Stand Up for Their Rights.

The West Seventh Street District
union met last evening to discuss mat
tiers appertaining to that section of the
city. The meeting organized with John
J. Ellis president, and George Herbert
secretary. +. A. Krch addressed the
meeting briefly, indorsing the action of
Representative Ives in the state legisla-li
ture with regard to the paving of West
Seventh street, and moved that the
president appoint a committee of three
to draft resolutions expressing the SELL
timents of the union in the matter. The
president appointed f. r. Krch, George
Herbert and NJ. f. Sweeney, and the.
following resolutions we're returned and
unanimously adopted:
Whereas, Hon. J. H. Ives has met with Sc
riouS opposition to his bill to relieve this dis
trict of part OF the expense in paving West
Seventh street, from Ramsey street to Tusca-
rora street. and
Whereas, His associates. Hon. r. A.
Smith and Hon. Albert Seheffer, and all
those who have contributed to the passage of
the bill, seeing justice in its passage, have.
aided him in its efforts. therefore be it :,
Resolved, That we heartily approve the
course pursued by our representative and
the honorable senators; that we shall extend
TO them every honorable aid to attain the
full results OF their efforts: that the West
Seventh Street District union has not been
jealous Of nor objected to. any improve
ment, no matter Of what nature and how ex-
psnsive, when demanded by the local neees-
sites of other portions Of the city, and we
deem it an injustice that the paving of a
main thoroughfare Of travel which has SO
many diagonal intersections should be
wholly, paid for by assessments on the COM,
paratively limited frontage available, which
has been taxed recently tor an improvement
which has proved inadequate for the public
necessities.

RECLAIMED FROM RUIN.
"A Young Woman Restored to Her
Anxious Family.

The day after Christmas, 1885, Alice
Cole, nineteen-year-Old girl of a very
respectable family at st. Louis, Mo-,
left home ostensibly to visit friends in
Minneapolis. For some time after her
arriv al in the Sawdust City she kept
her parents informed as to her where
abouts, and claimed to be enjoy
ing very pleasant visit with
her friends, but had all letters ad-
dressed to her through the general de-
livery. S.se finally wrote to her brother,
James Cole, stating that she was sick,
under the care of physician, and in
need of money. He forwarded the
money Jan. 9, but after that the family
heard nothing further from the girl.
Suspecting that all was not right, the
brother set out i'll search of the recreant
miss, going directly to Minneapolis.
There, after several days of persistent
search. he learned that the girl had
gone astray, and had occupied apart
ments with several young men in blocks
of doubtful reputation. A clerk in the
Glass Block store, with whom it was
learned she had been about the city q
great deal, Informed the brother that
she had left the city, and was living in
St. Paul on East Sixth street.
With heavy heart the young man
came to st. Paul yesterday morning
and began search for his erring sister.
At the Sixth street house he learned
that young woman answering to her
description had lived there as the wife
of a man calling himself Harrington.
She had left the place, however, leav-
ing no word as to her place of destina-
ton. As last resort police assistance
was invoked, ana, accompanied by a
well-posted police officer, young Cole
began an active search for the girl in
such places as she was likely to fre-
quent.. Their labors were. rewarded at
the Hampton house, on low
er Third street, where she
was discovered living las the
mistress of young man named Alfred
Douglass. an employe of a Third street
wholesale house. There was. an affect
ing scene on the meeting of the heart
broken brother and the guilty sister,
who threw her arms about his neck and
begged forgiveness for the disgrace she
had brought upon her family. Her
tears and eiitreatieS were not needed to
induce the young man to eGndone the
offrnse of his sister. as he was only too
glad to be able to return with her to the
sorrowing parents. She left tho house
at once, and last nights train over the

Prof. Garside Takes Issue With
Henry George.

Henry George.
A large and enthusiastic gathering
of socialists met at Liberty hall. corner
Fifth and Minnesota streets, last even
ing, and listened to an address by Prof.
Garside. who has been travelling through
the Eastern cities delivering addresses
upon socialism. The hall wherein the
orator Waxed eloquent was formerly
used by the Salvation army as their
Headquarters, and last evening it
was lighted up with doz-
en- or more hand lamps which
were stationed from the entrance
Oh Minnesota street to the speakers
desk. A small wood stove roared furi-
ously at each round of applause and
vainly tried to take the chill off the
room. A glass of water, into which an
hOnored local socialist, who occupied
chair on the rostrum, squeezed lemon
occasionally, and the auditors wrapped
in OvercoatS constituted the winter
characteristics Of the meeting. What
followed the speaker had all to
himself, save three vigorous en-
cores a minute. Four matronly-look-
ing women occupied front seats
and seemed as deeply interested
: in what the professor said as the leaders
of the meeting. Among other things,
in trying to picture to:his audience the
true condition of labor, the lecturer
gave expression to remarks upon the
failure of Henry Georges book to de-
scribe the real condition of labor and its
classes. He said it fell short of doing
, that. and built up with its pages an
ideal existence of the true state of the
laboring classes. ITO see the condition
OF that class" said he, ''go to the grog
sllop, the wretched novels in which la
borers are compelled to exist; tenement
fats, where misery and crime are bred
as a natural sequence to the poverty

laboring class. According to his idea
and Interpretation OF the term social
isin, it was scientific fact and ac-
cepted and economical truth" un-
known three centuries ago, but to-day
blooming into rich bud of fame. He
dWelt upon the state of. Europe since
the second century and illustrated the
effects upon that country and its vari-
ouS powers of the laws which governed
them Three-fourths of the speech re-
ferred to European condition, causes
and effects in national government, and
toward the close, ''this beautiful moral
said, was dealt with in a manner that
evoked continuous clapping of hands
and stamping stogies. The only way to
kill socialism was to shut up all schools
universities and churches; rob the
people of the Bible and their socialism
would die with struggle. But as long
as books will teach men wisdom and
nurse the fame of equality. which is
part of their natures, just so long will
socialism live, grow and mature to be-
come the all-powerful will Of people
who shall rise up in body aud crystal
lize it with unanimous voice and action.

islature, saying: II could train lot of
parrots to chatter laws more conducive
to public welfare than those ground out

STATE INSANE AsYLUMs.
The Commissioners Want to BOr-
row Money and Choose Doctors.

Ihe commissioners w ant TO BOP-
row Money and Choose Doctors.
The state board of lunacy commits
sioners held their quarterly meeting
yesterday at the capitol in the morning,
at which the reports of the superintend-
ents of the two insane asylums were
read. AT the adjourned meeting in the
afternoon there were present CommiS-
sioners j. F. Meagher. Mankato; G. D.
Wright, Fergus Falls; Burr Deuel.,
Dodge Center; Mai. H. b. Strait Shak-
opee; w. Schinnel, st. Paul; Maj. A. L..
Sackett. st. Peter; ex-Gov. Barto,
Judge Tyler, st. Paul; Capt. nj. j.
E. Bowers, of the Rochester asylum,
and Dr.. Bartlett, of the st. Peter asy-
lum.
The report of the ST. Peter asylum
showed a total of 96S patients in the
hospital, of whom 1876 are women, while
connected and liable to return at any
time are 1,034 more, of whom 46S are
women. Rochester has $50 patients, 329
of these being women. During the
quarter just ended 45 men and 33 women
were admitted. Fifteen men and 5
women have died. and the increase in
the number of patients during the quar-
ter is man and IA women.
A discussion took place as to the power
of the board to borrow money. FIRE.
quently the appropriations for the MAIN
tenanee of these Institutions are not
available for months after they are
really needed, and it seemed to be the
opinion of the commissioners that if
they wanted money they could bor-
row it.
The question of extending the power
of the board in reference to appointing
physicians was also discussed. the gen
eral opinion being that they should not
be confined in their choice to any par
ticular school of medicine, but should
have power to select any doctor con-
Sidcred capable.

U. S. CIRCUIT COURT.
Judge Nelson Sustains a Damage
Suit Against the City.

suit lnc Ouy.
Augustine III. Jones has begun action
against George B. Shepard to recover
possession of property in Minneapolis,
situated corner of Hennepin avenue
and Thirty-sixth strret, valued at
$40, 900. The plaintiff claims that some
years ago the defendant wrongfnlly and
unlaWfully entered upon the property.
and has ever since withheld it from the
plaintiff, wherefore this action in eject
ment.
Judge Nelson denied the motion of
defendant for new trial in the case of
David j. Hennessey against the city.
The action was far damages for tearing
down, by order of the city council,
partially burned building On Robert
street, on the ground that it was a
nuisance. Plaintiff recovered and de-
fendant asked for new trial. In deny
ing the motion the court says: "A
nuisance cannot be created by mere
declaration of the city council, unless it
is in some manner injurious to the pub
lie, and the ordinance heretofore re-
cited is no defense in this suit unless
the building is proved to be a common
nuisance"
John Allison Smith against John
Green, George Il. Pumphrey and E.
johnson; the demurrer of defendants
sustained. Complainant alleged that
he had owned &c 25-100 acres in Henne-
pin county, subject to mortgage for
$4,000 to John Green. who made pre-
tended foreclosure; that the property
was subject to redemption in June,
1856. AT that time he alleges that he
was approached at his home in Burling
ton, To-, by Johnson and Pumphrey,
who induced him, by fradulent repre-
sentation, to give quitclaim deed for
the sum of $500, when the property was
worth $4,000. He prayed that the deed
be declared void. The court sustained
the demurrer on the ground that the
connection between Pumphrey and
Johnson with Green was not sufficiently

school in the Sixth ward. He thought
West Seventh street was entitled to
equal educational facilities. and on mo-
tion of E. A. Krch, the following reso-
luton was adopted:
Resolved, That this union indorses the
contemplated establishment Of branch de-
partments of the high schools SO that the
earlier part of the high school course may
be pursued by the pupils without the neces;,
sity OF their attendance at the high school
building, and that this union advocates such
aspranch of the high school in the Jefferson
school building:
Several members spoke in favor of
cutting down the salaries Of city and
county officers and comparisons were
made as to the cost of the government
of st. Panl and Minneapolis. Speeches
were made favoring general reductions
in city expenses, but member stated
that inasmuch as the session had been
devoted wholly to asking for the expen-
,diture of public money, it would be ad-
visable to postpone action decrying pub
Iic expenses until another meeting.
