THE PULPIT NOT BARRED
In the Disc ussion of Politics
That is DIR. BurrelFs Idea.

That is DIR. BurrelFs Idea.
A large audience heard Rev. D. ].
Burrell, ID. D.. lecture last evening at
the House of Hope church on the sub
ject of "The Pulpit in Politics." With
out attempting to give a synopsis of the
lecture it should be said that it was an
able discussion of the needs of a gem
eral reform i'm pulpit discussions. The
learned divine presented strong argu-
ment in favor of dealing in generalitieS.
He said that the minister who only
breaches the homily, "Come to Christ"
has only learned the.A b c of preach
ing, and people wonder that he continu-
ally plays the one tune. Politicians
say the minister should be content with
monopOlizing heaven and allow the
people to elect their men with
out interference from the church.
He regarded it the bounden duty of
Christians to make their influence felt
in the city council, and especially in the
cities of st. Paul and Minneapolis. He
thought there should be no embargo be-
tween the church and state. The mil
lennium would not be set up by mir
acle. Whilst it is possible FOR God to
appear and compel obedience, yet that
is not His way of working it out. The
soul resists conversion by force of arms.
1t should be accomplished by the sword.
but how applied? BY the foolishness of
preaching. 1t could not be accom-
plished by abstract theological discus
sion. That was merely poetry OF phil
osophy. 1t should be applied by saying
Thou art the man." The CalviniStic
plan of personal application was recon-
mended. The address was highly i'll
teresting and thoroughly appreciated
by the large assembly.

WELLS WAS NAMED.
Prohibitionists of the Tenth Come
to the Front for Alderman.

10 llt II EOnO loI
The Prohibitionlsts of the Tenth ward
had meeting last evening at the Odd
Fellows hall in Hamline, to select an
aldermanic candidate for that ward.
They were as harmonious in making
their selection as were the Democrats.
st. Anthony Park ProhibtionistS were
present, bnt they did not object i'll the
least to the selection of the Rev.
George L. Wells to run for aldermanlc
honors. The meeting was called
to order by G. ID. Bentley, of st. An
thonv Park. A number of enthusiastic
speeches were made. and the orators
did not hesitate in the least to claim
that the man whom they should select
to make the aldermanic fight for them
could carry the ward for prohibition and
its friends. On the first ballot for the
selection of an alderman L. w. Wallace
received Is votes to given to A. q.
Drew. Other candidates received scat
terng votes. but none of them over 4.
Mr.. Wallace, who made the can
vas the last time, and was unsuc-
cessful in it, declined the honor
rendered him, stating that he had not
time to devote to the canvass. Another
vote was taken, and the Rev. George +.
Wells received the nomination, which
was afterwards made unanimous. Mr..
Wells is an exceedingly we'll known
Prohibitionist throughout the state. and
is at present secretary of the state cen
trail committee OF the Prohibition
party.
The following ward committee was
appointed: A. Z. Drew, chairman, Sec
ond precinct; j. F. johnson, First pre-
einct; Z. S. Hemenway, Third precinct;
G. ID. Bentley, Fourth precinct.

A CURBsToNE DIALOGUE.

Fred-Well, sam, what do you know to-
day:
SAINT would not take long to tell if you
asked we what L don't know. My answer
would be very quick. If you ask me what 1
think, I'd say Bob Smith will be our next
mayor.
Fred-That is one of your old decisions.
Don't you know that we have the well-knoWn
Col. Kiefer as our Republican standard
bearer-a German, Grand Army man, a
statesman, and jolly good fellow otherwise;
in fact, a man that can sweep ali before him?
Sam-Yes, Fred. nearly every one has
heard Kiefers name prominent among Re-
publicans for the mayors office. i shall say
nothing of him personally at present. l be-
lieye he is about the best and strongest man
the party can put forward, but just want to
tell you secret that there is not in the
whole Republican party to-day q man that
can beat Bob Smith. There are several rea-
sons for it. don't care how far back we
look for precedents. j am over twenty seven
years in this city, and have always paid close
attention to its government. and can assert
without fear of contradiction. that the Bob
Smith regime has been as good and benef-
ciai TO all the city's interests don't care
how you take them--aS any that has pre-
coded il, and would add better in many in
stances. The credit of our Democratic city
to-day is second to none in America, and
which, in a large measure, is due to the up
right honesty of. John W. Roche, and to the
ability of Treasurer Reiss.
Fred-But you know. Sam, Bob Smith has
made lots OF blunders. ] could give you a
list the length of my arm where he has done
things that were not exactly right.
Sam-Just give me one of your long list
and if know anything OF city affairs, l will
answer you truly.
Fred-Well, you remember the street car
strike a year ago, he took sides with Tom
Lowry against the workingmen.
San-I deny that entirely. 1t is no such
thing. When the strike was Oh Bob Smith
went to Lowry and did his best 10 make
place in the interest of the men. When he
failed with Lowry he said to Chief Clark
You protect property. We are sworn to do
that. and things will come out all right very
soon" In this he was backed by all the
labor organizations of the city of good stand
ing. OF the scalawags that worm their way
into societies there is scarcely one in st.
Paul to-day. All the business interests that
know myself were on the side of the work
ingman, and Smiths action in the matter.
You must understand that this is working
mans city, and no man can be popular or
hold Office that does not take the interest of
the workingman seriously to heart There
was only one man punished in all that strike
trouble, and Bob Smith, to my own knowl-
edge. put his hand in his pocket and paid his
$40 fine. That is the kind of a tyrant he is
Fred-Well Sam. / am not done with you

matter next week, when you will not have it
all your own way. 1 think l can roast you

George Wells Nominated for
Alderman by Hamline

"Our man was selected chairman"
remarked Henry Johns, after the late
Republican city convention. "We
wanted Sanborn for chairman, and we
got him."
If this statement is true, the ''kidS"
will be very apt to be more careful in
the selection of the next man they elect
to preside over a Republican conven
ton, for the new city committee, an
nounced yesterday by Aid. Sanborn,
lets the "kid" element out in the cold
completely. Henry Johns, Darius F.
Reese, Samuel Lowenstein, III. l.. Will
Jams, Samuel Nichols and several 9TH
ers will cool their heels on the outside
for several years to come. while the
party schemes are mapped out and ma
nipulated by quite different sci OF men.
OF course this is base ingratitude on the
part of Chairman Sanborn toward the
men who made him chairman. but hay
ing uppermost in his mind the deSira-
bility of securing Ramsey county del
egation in the next Republican stat e
convention favorable to Gov Merriam S
denomination, Mr.. Sanborn was obliged
to ''fiy" the city committee with refer
ence to that and that alone. The last
city committee, it will be remembered,
was not exactly Merriam organization.
The new one emphatically is such. The
governor took hand in the matter, and
the governor won.
The committee announced by Mr..
Sanborn is made up as follows:
Fred c. Stevens, Eleventh ward, chairman.
Committeeman at Large-George w. Lamb,
Michael W. Fitzgerald, John Hiliiard. james
r. Hilyard. Charles o. Malmstrom and Will
lam NJ. Bole.
First Ward-Dr. George A. Gottwald.
Second Ward-Peter H. Kirk.
Third Ward-Edward H. Milham.
Fourth Ward--Charles l.. Horst.
Fifth Ward, John j. Ellis.
Sixth Ward-W. b. Bourne.
Seventh Ward-Waiter Holcomb.
Eighth Ward-Fred Neuer.
Ninth Ward-Theodore FL. Menk.
Tenth Ward--Itichard K. Evans.
The old committee was made up as
follows:
W. j. Freapey. Eighth ward. chairman. Z
At Large-Henry Johns, j. G. Elmquist,
Stanford Newell, j. @. Adams, George Lamb.
First Wards. Lowenstein.
Second Ward-P n. Kirk.

Seventh Wards. H. Nichols.
Eighth Ward-W. j. Freaney.
Ninth Ward-E. l.. Mabou.
Tenth Ward-R. X. Evans
Eleventh Ward-D. M. Sullivan.
The only committeeman at large re-
appointed is George Lamb. and he was
only recently placed Oh the old commit
tee. Henry Johns, who ''made" Chair

G. Elmquis and several others. A new
member at large is William NJ. Bole,
who conducted Merriam's fight on the

SECOND WARD DEMOCRATS

1GdIty APOunu bOCt, anu w ARMY
Roast the Syndicate Candidate.
The aldermanic campaign in the Sec
ond ward is being holly contested, so
far as Fred W. Bott. the Democratic
nominee, and Lathrop E. Reed, the syn
dlcate nominee, are concerned. Matt
LeithauSer, the selection OF the Repub
licans, is working on the still hunt.
Fred Bott and his supporters are of
the opinion that the more the tax
payers of the ward are informed of OPP
erationS of the East side syndicate, the
less likely are they to vote for the can
didate whom this soullesS body is at
tempting to thrust down their throats.
In accordance with this policy a meet
ing was held last night in Lucker'S hall.
7. r. Scannell was called to preside
over large audience, almost solely
composed of taxpayers. E. G. Starkey
was the first to receive call for a
speech. Mr.. Starkey at one time repre-
scented the ward in the city council, and
has resided many years OIL the bluff.
He urged upon all to support the Dem
ocratic candidate, and, incidentally,
roasted the syndicate. F. f. Price. who
next had turn, pOintedly declared that
the issue before the Second WarderS
was: Should they return to the council
an alderman who would go to the coun
Gil for the purpose of unloading bluff
property on to the public? la voice:
"That's it," and applause. Mr.. Price
sailed into the would-be Democratic
Irish boss. pleasantly L wi winding ing

twin II
Scannell, as an Irishman: stated that
the members of his nationality were
not unit in support of Mr.. Reed. The
Irishmen of Dayton's bluff were not
going to allow any clique to lead them
by the nose. N. l.. Gray spoke, and by
a little hustling prior to the opening Of
the meeting, Judge Nelson received a.
call for speech This tue judge i'm
proved upon by an explanation of his
position as independent candidate for
municipal judgeship. He de-
clared his loyalty to Democratic
principles and said he was merely eXer-
cising his rights as a citizen under this
new election law. Judge Nelson did
not say he was disgruntled candidate
who failed to get nominated in the
Democratic convention. Fred w. BOtt
had now arrived and delivered an eX-
cellent campaign speech. The manly
position he takes towards his opponents
Representatives of the syndicate) is GER
tain to win him many friends. He said
they were circulating all sorts of cam
paign talsehoods, some of which affected
him personally. He was not going to
reply to these slanderous statements;
he was not going to wallow in the mud
and fling it back. He wanted taxpayers
to take him and judge him as he was.
He did not claim to be without faults;
the members of the syndicate could not
claim to be without fault. [Cries of

others addressed the meeting, which
broke up amid rousing cheers for Bot
and the Democratic cause.

possibly slight mental arrangement

possibly a slight mental arrangement
was at the bottom of the case.
About this city it was learned that
Wasmus had a few debts, most of them
being of the nature of outstanding
paper upon which he had secured in
dorsements. Lieut.. Budy. of the
mounted patrol, had Endorsed for him,
and Lieut.. Cole. of the subsistence de-
partment, had also accommodated him
in the same way. The amounts in these
cases were very small, and would not,
of themselves, account for the flight of
Wasmus. 1t is possible that there are
other accounts of larger sum, and
that his indebtedness preyed upon the
mind of the missing man, in connection
with nervousness growing out of over
work. But whatever may be the cause.
his friends are unit in expressing the
hope that Wasmus may return at once.
Ernest Wasmus was sergeant of Is
troop, Seventh cavalry. until 1883. In
that year he came to st. Paul to rife
contest, and through the influence OF
Capt. Davis was exchanged into the
general service here. Upon receiving
his present position he married Miss
Cornell, of ST. Paul, and has since re-
sided here

added fresh laurels to those which are
