to the governor to veto it. He diSap-
pointed such expectation, and has
greatly strengthened his position with
the better sentiment of the state.
Both Republicans and Democrats
are attempting to claim the vic
tory in Its passage. Some regard
it as better method than
the one illustrated in the election in
this city Tuesday. A feature of that
which elected most favorable comment
was that 1t destroyed the vocation of
the tieket-peddler and afforded no ILL
duccment for obnoxious patriots to
hang about the polls to disturb or in
fluence voters. The main difference of
the New York. law is that it provides
that the names of candidates of each
party shall be printed in separate
columns and the sheets cut SO that the
voter can easily tear off the ticket he
wants. If he is illiterate, and wants to
vote the straight ticket, he has no oc-
casion to call in aid or blunder with
pencil. If he wants a mixed ticket the
ticket peddler is allowed to supply a
paster, which he must take into the
booth and put On himself. These ped
dlers, however, cannot come within $50
feet of the. booth. This facilitates the
voting of the illiterateS, who have as
much right at the ballot box as the most
cultured. Still, there is little difficulty
in the system in vogue in the cities of
this state.

AFRAID or, 1T.

The Milwaukee Sentinel is one of the
Republican papers that finds peril to
the party in the passage of the tariff
bill approved by the Republicans in the
house. 1t enumerates. among the arti-
Giles that are to be more heavily taxed,
glassware, wool, wooden goods, higher
grade cotton goods, cutlery, tin plate,
pine boards, fine papers and wood pulp.
The lower duties are on some forms of
iron and iron manufactures, wires, low
grade cotton goods and sugar. The
grasses used in the manufacture of
Irvine are put Oh the free list. The
Sentinel finds that the articles still re-
tanned Oh the duty list are increased in
taxation on the average. About the
only source of relief to the people worth
considering it discovers in the sugar
tax. From party interest it is DESTROYS
to have the best features of the pro-
posed act made to fill the popular eye as
well as possible, and still this is the
most favorable view it can take. 1t con-
fesses to disappointment, and says it is

There are, it alleges, no signs of conces-

Its statement is that ''the issue as now
made up is between full protection and

light as possible. They will all fall in

cradle to the other extreme viii Oh they
assert is the alternative. The use of
the term free trade is not part of the
statement that exhibits candor. Also
lutte free trade may be an ideal. but it is
not likely to be reached as long as the
government has large sums of money
to raise, nor would it be jndicious as an
end to be attained by any short method.
The admissions of the Wisconsin paper
confirm the construction of the tariff
monstrosity given by the Democrats.

TRIALS AHD TRIBULAT0HS

Styles For Spring and Fall.

The annual complaint of the fair sen
is now. heard on all sides, "Oh, dearI
/ have to spend half my time at the
dressmaker's Il can't get anything
done until june" etc., etc. The dear
ladies seem to wait and then all go to-
gether to get their dresses made. Only
a few start early to get their work done
and save the annoyance and trial OF
temper. This is still more true of tho
ladies in attending to their repairs of
furs. They never seem to think of
them until the first cold snap, and then
have to wait and be without their gar
ments just when they want them most.
The time to have all those things done
is in the spring, when you arc
through with wearing them. Fur
riers are then anxious to get
your work, and can do it much
better and cheaper, don't have TO rush
it through, and your garments are all in
repair and ready to wear at the first
cold snap. You have no care in pack
ing them away and save lots of trouble.
You may not know it, but the spring
and summer are by far the best times
to order NEW furs. You gain in quality
and workmanship and save in price.
Perhaps you are not aware how nice
thing it is to have one of the nice Fur
Capes now so much in vogue: they fill
place in your wardrobe that no other
wrap does: are easy to put on and
off, and just the thing for summer
evenings. If you once add one to your
wardrobe you will wonder that you got
along SO long without it.

WE'VE GOT EN-.

The Republican campaign turned out
to be more wind than ballast. The
sweeping Democratic victory yesterday
was no surprise to those who confided
in the sober sense and conservatism of
the st. Paul people. but it was surprise
to those who had given car to the clam
orous bOasting of the young men who
were running the Republican machine.
personal nature injected into the cam
paign that didn't properly belong there,
and which, in the minds of a great
many persons, cast a shadow OF
uncertainty over the result. But the
GLOBE has consistently held that
there was too much at stake to admit
of the possibility of a change of admin
istration at this crisis in our municipal
affairs, This confidence in the success
of the Democratic ticket was founded
on our knowledge of the good sense and
high character of our population. The
GLOBE did no mud Singing through the
campaign, and it is very sure we will do
none now; so it is not for the purpose of
rejecting upon any of the defeated can
didates that we allude to these matters
i'll this connection, but simply to en-
phaSze the fact that the masses can
always be relied on to do the right
thing at the right time.
Mayor SMITHS splendid majority is
satisfactory vindication of his past adj
ministration and popular testimonial
TO the virtues of Democratic supremacy.
There is well-founded impression
that his majority would have been
much larger, perhaps double. but for
the unfortunate mistake made by one
of the Republican organs, which was
intended to damage KIEFER, but which
rebounded and struck the Democratic
ticket.
The evenness with which the re-
mainder of the Democratic ticket kept
up with the head is an evidence that
the people of this city want Democratic
administration, and want it pure and
simple. Their one experience with a
mongrel council, which was elected
Under false cry of reform, was enough
TO satisfy the public appetite. Here
after good, straight Democratic coun-
ell will be good enough for the people
of this city.
There has perhaps never been an
election where 50 many straight ballots
were voted as yesterday. 1t was bar
rem field for the traders, and many of
the old-time ballot manipulators found
their occupation to be gone. When vic
tories are won under such circumstances
as prevailed yesterday, they count for
something, because they are known to
be an honest expression of the popular
will.

city upon their splendid achievements.
and at the same time offers its congrat-
ulations to the entire people, without
regard to their party affiliations, upon the
assurance they have of continued pure

they said about us and our candidates

Western Railway President
Spend a Day i'm Discussion.
CHICAGO. May 6.-Although the pres
idents of the Western railroads were in
session again to-day. they took no ae-
ton on the question of an agreement or
of a restoration of rates. The day was
spent in discussion, the purpose being
to ascertain the exact position of every
road on ali the vital questions involved
in the Western situation before pro-
ceeding to the formation of an agree
ment that is designed to adjust all
differences. The conference will be re-
sumed tomorrow. The general passen-
ger agents of the Western roads also
held an adjourned meeting for the pur-
pose of perfecting their organization.
This was fair representation of trans
Missouri lines, and the meeting pro-
ceeded to the adoption of the proposed
agreement section by section. When
ever there was any dissent from par
ticular provision contained in the docu
ment, that section was passed by. to be
taken UP later. This work took the ell
tire day, and the meeting adjourned un-
til tomorrow. when the rules will be
considered in the same manner.

CHAMBERLAIN, s. D., May 6.-The
famous gripdstene buttes in the re-
Gently ceded Sioux lands are attracting

who recently visited them. says there
are millions of tons of excellent grind
stone material there, its real mass being

the true ledge is found further down,

many acres. Some three miles north of
the original buttes there are one or two
other cutles similarly covered with
great broken slabs of sandstone, of the
same texture and grit as the others.
The stratum is probably continuous be-
tween the two clusters of buttes, and if
SO, the supply will be found simply in
