SPRING IN ST. PAUL.

With the advent of spring, flowers and Lit
tiers of granting piglings in the outskirts, and
the small boy with sore toe and a hatful of
marbles in the business districts, we are re-.
minded among other things vernal of the
winters accumulation of garbage. This
naturally suggests its disposal. and brings to
mind a1dermanic junketing excursions, the
Vienna system, garbage crematories and
other widely discussed topics. Notwithstand.
ing all this, we must not lose sight of the fact
that we still have with us Gilbert Donaldson,
the st. Paul Sanitation company, and their
odorless excavating stink carts, for, from
present appearances, they will continue for
many moons to be sole garbage disposers
and the dirty bosom of the old Mississippi
will still be smeared with the city's filth.
The trade of the Pacific coast has I'D to
the present time, been controlled by San
Francisco and New York houses. This is
rapidly ceasing to be the case, and ST. Paul
is becoming the jobbing center for the west
ern slopes of the Rockies. A remark by a
travelling man in another column that he had
broken the record by selling $3.50, ZOO worth
of groceries in Oregon and Washington terri
tory during four months trip is an indica-
ton of the tendency. The jobbing houses
on the Pacific coast can buy not only grocer
les, but almost everything else just as cheap
~ in st. Paul as in San Francisco or New

CASTLE GARDEN is becoming quite a
matrimonial mart. Parties all over the
country send orders there for wives.
Probably they have the notion that i'm
portations in wife material have some
sort of sympathy with other produc-
lions from abroad to which they attach
special value. 1t is not altogether a
patriotic whim, and there is often adul-
teration in foreign articles. One of the
applicants specifies only youth and good
looks, aside, of course, from some
money. There is not much sentiment
in these transactions.

THE Duke of Westminster is said to
be the wealthiest man in England, and

who could take him in, with large mar

ionaires, America probably can size up

The Scheffer meat inspection bill was I'M
der fire for the first time in the house yester-
day. 1t came up on report of the majority
of the committee that the bill be indefinitely
postponed. A minority of the committee re-
ported in favor of the passage of the bill.
-
In looking over the minority and majority
reports-which is a solit between the lawyers
of the house-it is noted that those LAWYERS
who have been credited with the highest
legal ability in the house favor the bill
Messrs. Morgan, Stevens, Ives, Forbes and
Williams support the measure Messrs.
Keyes, Hay, Lane and Crossfeld pronounce
it unconstitutional The battle promises to
be one on legal points as well as upon the
benefits tn the stock-raising interests of the
state.
Yesterdays debate contained pungent re-
marks which foreshadow the character of
the contest to be waged. Mr.. Keyes said:
THE desire to force an early consideration
of this bill is that lobby may come in here
like the imps of Hades and tramp up aud
down and cram this bill through
r.
Mr.. Searle resented this imputation in Wig
orous language:
''If there are any corrupt influences being
brought to bear upon this bill. they are from
those who desire to defeat it,
Mr.. c. r. Davis grew angry over this:
Il hurl back the insinuations. / have
heard that corrupt influences are to be used
by the movers of this bill, and that they have
raised from $500 to 81, 5OO.''
Mr.. Searle- Does the gentleman from
Nicollet know that the special car of the
big Four" is anchored at the union depot of
this city: What does he suppose it is here
for?
~
These are surface indications of undersoil
operations conspiring to defeat this BILL
WhateveEthe merits or dement's of the meas
IRE are, the feeling is prevalent in the house
that the opposition will not consider them in
its fight. This horrible stencil of money is
already perceptible to even catarrhal nos
trils. One of the sensations to come. as limited
at yesterday, was that prominent advocate
of the bill would charge bribery upon the
part of the opponents before the fight was
over.
There was not full attendance in the
house yesterday, but the vote taken upon the
motion of Mr.. Lane to place the bill upon
general orders was. in sense, a test one,
Mr.. Lanes motion was defeated by vote of
90 to %. OF the twenty who voted
with Mr.. Lane but four were farmers. OF the
fifty who voted against him, twenty-four
were farmers This would seem to make the
issue, as it has been declared to be, one of
their own, and that they consider it to be so.

RECENTLY i'll the grammar and high
schools Of some towns in Massachusetts
there have been comparisons of the rel
alive mental capacity of the sexes. In
the grammar schools the boys were
ahead in arithmetic, history and geog-
raphy, and the girls in other branches.
In the high schools the girls exceIled in
all the studies. There is no reason to
suppose that these Yankee girls are any
brighter than their sisters in the West or
the young men behind the average. 1t
is believed that similar comparisons in
the high schools of this and other cities
would give the girls the better stand
ing. In the graceful use of the United
States vernacular and the ornamental
branches they may be generally counted
in the van.

estimate is that in ten years there will

MEN WE MEET.

There is one official in the state capitol
who will rejoice with the adjournment of
the legislature, ana that is Assistant Attorney
General Childs. 1t is no uncommon sight to
find dozen legislators in his department.
They are there daily, importuning him to
frame bills for introduction in either end of
the legislature. Mr.. Childs will note down,
roughly, the character of the legislation de-
sired, and will then draw up bill for presen-
tation. I frame about half-a-dozen bills per
day." he sometime ago laughingly remarked.
The legislator gets all the credit for the good
points of the bill, and the assistant attorney
general all the work,

Apropos Of the resignation Of Secretary
Laird of the West side Y. NJ. c. A., it seems
that the reason assigned by the secretary for
his action are hardly the true ones. If Mr..
Laird had stated in his letter of resignation,
that to hold the office of secretary of the
West Side Y. M. G.. A. was the hardest and
most unremunerative way Of serving the
Lord extant, he would not have deviated
from the truth. The retiring secretary has
worked hard and faithfully for the organiza-
ton, and his withdrawal at this time is a
severe blow.

make it prudent for him not to attempt
the senatorial ordeal himself. LINCOLN

victory. But the moral cowardice of
the man is despicable. He is the veriest
craven in the face of a danger that
would arouse the highest qualities of
real hero. His flight from France at
the time when his followers most need
ed the encouragement of his presence
Is cowardly betrayal of cause in
which he should have considered it an
honor to suffer martyrdom, and hence
forth his name will only be a by-word
and the subject of ridicule.
After all, BoULANGER's meteor-like
career conveys useful lesson to the
rising generation, and particularly to
the young men of America, where so
many men of prominence are of the
BoULANGER type, particularly in po-
litical circles. The main value of the
lesson IS in fixing upon the mind of our
American youth the truth that characs
ter is not altogether valueless, that the
moral qualities need more attentive
cultivation than the development of the
physical powers; for it makes no diff
ference to what eminence man may
climb by the aid of adventitiouS cir
cuIiStdilceS, unless ne possesses The
moral strength and courage to satisfy
every condition of his station, and to
successfully grapple with every emer-
gency that may confront him, his fall
and disgrace will be all the more signal
because of his eminence. The tendency
of the gross, impure and decivilizing
materialism of this age has been to re-
press ingenious emprise, lofty aims
and patriotic impulses IN our American
youth. There was needed some noted
historic example to teach this genera
ton the fallacy of the doctrine that
greatness could be acquired without the
use or possession of moral qualities.
BoULANGER has furnished it. for no
man ever had greater opportunities, OF
made more miserable failure.

SEIZURE ON CURRENT POLITICS.
He Discusses Political Problems and Gives Ad-

NEW YORK, Jan. IAN election pre-
coded the dinner of the Commonwealth
Club at the Westminster Hotel tonight.
The following officers were elected for the
ensuing year: President, VIM. j. Combs, of
Brooklyn; vice-presidents, Mathew Hale,
of Albany; Theodore Bacon. of Rochester;
John w. Cowing, of Buffalo; Elihu Root
and E. Ellery Anderson, of New York.
There were over one hundred present.
After dinner. Carl Schurz delivered his
first address since his return from Germany.
He talked on some Present Political Prob

party to be right, and uses legitimate means TO

it is the one duty of parties to carry elections.

Among the questions to be considered in the
near future is admission States of those Terri
on a mch wh nsSe tn Unlike eea Se@ MEXICO
and Utah are not, for obvious reasons, unfit for
statehood. Even If their admission does in
and in thu the Electoral College, it viii have one
good effect-it will prevent New York from be-
ing any longer the pivotal State. From that
of the Republican machine will no longer deter
mine who shall be President of the United States.
Mr.. Schurz then gave prediction as to
the incoming administration, saying:
II General Harrison should have a mind to
observe the civil-service law, he must under
stand five things: First, that President is
strongest in his attempts at reform at the begin
ming of his administration; second, that he viii
be hampered in the start if he surrounds himself
with men not in sympathy with him, unless
he severely disciplines them at the start;
third, that he must punnish the slightest
evasion of the civilservice law; fourth, that he
must never have around him men who are gov
erned by congressman; fifth, that every conces-
sion to the spokesman Is followed by demands for
greater concessions. The past political cam
paign has high educational value in civil
service reform.
In conclusion, the speaker called on the
club to aid in bringing these things to pass.

ACQUITTED OF MURDER.
A Town Marshals Heroic Stand for Law and

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

BRAZIL, Ind, Jan. 12.-In the case of the
State VS.. Thomas Fitzgerald, for the killing
of John Goebschka, at Carbon, on the Goth
of last February, on trial in the Clay
County Circuit Court, verdict of acquit-
tai has been rendered. Fitzgerald was
marshal of the town of Carbon. Goebschka
was one of colony of Austrian miners that
had instituted a reign of terror in the COM
munity. Weddings were celebrated by
them with days and nights of drunken
carousaL On one occasion one of their
number was shot dead by a companion in
the presence of his children So great
was the terror inspired by these hOodlums
that the murderer remained in town all
night and walked off in the light of the
next day. The carousing went on mean
while. On another occasion general row
resulted, in which clubs, rocks. knives and
revolvers were used with telling. though
unfortunately not fatal, effect. This so far
concerned their own number. Passers-bv
were also assaulted. DIR. j. E. Mutt was
found half dead on the commons next
morning, his skull cracked with coupling
pin. The night mail train was bombarded
with stones, and even fired upon. The
widest rumors reached Brazil. and a posse
hurried to the scene, but could find only
two or three of the colony, all more or less
wounded, the others having escaped. Fitz-
gerald was afterward elected marshal. He
took brave stand for law and order He
commanded a brawling gang out on the
streets one night to disperse, whereupon
they turned on him like fiendish mob.
He was alone but armed. He commanded
the leader to halt. The command was not
obeyed, and Fitzgerald fired with fatal
effect. The rest retreated. A Democratic
coroner found the marshal, who is a Repub-
hcan, not guiltless, the deceased coming to
his death by being shot with a revolver at
his hands, and he was placed under a $500
bond to appear at court. His acquittal was
expected. Meanwhile, no more Austrian
disturbances have occurred at Carbon. most
of the colony having gone to Parke county.
where, according to the Rockville papers. a
lively row occurred not long ago.

Coughed Up a Key.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
Upton, Ind, Jan. 12.-There is peculiar
case in this place that has been puzzling
the physicians for nearly week, and it has
not been fully explained yet. S. Meeker
has been confined to his room for some
time, and the doctors pronounced his dis
ease to be consumption. At times the pa
tent would suffer from severe hemorrhage,
and last week it was thought he was at
deaths door. On Wednesday, however,
Mr.. Meeker was again attacked by
hemorrhage, accompanied by severe
coughing spells, and while suffering
from one of these attacks the patient
caughed up a small, steel safety key or
clasp. 1t was about one-haf inch long and
diamond shape. and was covered with a
coat of peculiar rust, giving evidence of
having been in the patients vitals for a
number of years. The physicians say that
Mr. Meeker swallowed the key and that it
worked its way to the lung, thus causing
hemorrhage. Mr.. Meeker is a harness
maker and carriage-trimmer by trade and
uses these keys in his work, but has no
knowledge of having swallowed one.

other than restitution of the most appall-

There is absolutely nothing left in the COM

frosted wheat. Fargo and Moorhead will

Tuesday another carload of provisions and
goods will be shipped to Rev. Omland for
disfrihution
