a very pretty little park is that out
on Monroe street and Thirteenth ave-
nue. northeast. something that the peo-
pie of the Ninth ward will have cause
to be proud Of in time to come, with :
out doubt; but just now the clouds Of
dust that hover round and above it
does not tend to make the grounds az
inviting as they might be. Between
rain storms, which are very upcer-

street sprinkler to do good service

The Minneapolis Street Railway
Company that was so poor during the
strike, and unable to make improve
ments demanded of it, according to
statements made by the company at
that time, is now flush und able to
spend million, more or less, for cable
lines and better street car service here
all of which goes to show how false
and worthless were all their statements,
It matters not what the proposition Of
Mr.. Lowry shall now be, the City Coun-
Gil should not recognize it. There is
but one way to gain practical and last
ing benefit in our street railway service
and that is by competition. Messrs.
Anderson and Douglas stand ready to
furnish this and the people Of this city
are anxious that this one-man power
be dcne away with.
The press and people have not yet
got done talking about corruption and
dishonesty of Minnesosa's last legisla-

tition of what has been charged, more
or less, for the past twenty years against
each legislature IN turn. fairly con-
sidered, it seems rather unjust to say
that we are continually being governed
by thugs and boodlers of every descrip
ton. 1t is to be admitted that corrup-
ton has been practiced to shameful
extent. but in this wa are not, perhaps,

we have most to complain OF is the lack

upon the state by their dishonest and
despicable practices.
