TOPICAL TALK.

A Dearth 81 see the same dis
couraging symptoms in
Oh Pub this manuf a ct uring
boom that is now on
lilo Spirit. that have seen in all
our efforts to make
display Of public-spiritednesS." That
was the remark of an old and prominent
citizen Of this city the other day, and
when pressed him for an explanation
OF his statement be continued: "Why,
there is more Selfishness than public
spirit in the whole business. What
makes me think SO? FIJI tell you. All
our moneyed men are spectators, and
they look upon everything with a spec
ulative eye. The moment you COM
mence talking about an auditorium
building or establishing manufacturing
plants. or anything else that will be
public benefit, every mothers son COM
mences to calculate how much he is
going to make out of it. He calcu-
lates that if the proposed i'm
provement is located in Ger
tain locality his property will be bene-
flied so much, and he can afford to
donate certain per cent of the benefit
Ii 1t is to be located elsewhere he loses
all interest in it, and turns his attention
to his private affairs. Do you call that
an exhibition of public spirit? | don't.
L call it downright selfishness. and no
community can have greater mis-
fortune befall it than to have the
selfish class predominant in the man
agement of its affairs. To illustrate
what | mean, if it should be decided to
locate some manufacturing plants on
the levee on the West side the West
side property holders will go in for it
tooth and nail, and yet | doubt if dol
lar would be available on this side. If the
manufacturing boom is to plant itself in
North st. Paul, then the West-siders
would lose interest in it and would
close their pocketbooks. And it is just so
with the location of an auditorium and
library building. 1t all depends upon
whose property is to be benefited by
the location as to who will subscribe
you say. Grant it; yet it is not the way
to build cities. To further illustrate
my meaning, Chicago would never have
had its great auditorium building if the
Chicago people had proceeded on the
plan we adopt. Therefore l am in favor
of making all improvements that will he
a public benefit by special tax. The
money that the people of this city have
wasted within the past three years for
street sprinkiing would have built a
library and an auditorium building that
would have been an eternal credit to
the city. / am thoroughly disguised
with the whole business, and want you
to say so. Aud furthermore, put me
down on record as saying that all our
boosted public spirit is fiction" And
as the old gentleman turned to amble
off / detected look of earnestness in
his face that fully confirmed his words.

Hilton
Very
Popular.

New YORK Sun, are
Popular. Ward McAIlister and
Henry Hilton. The
average newspaper reader can have no
idea of the personal congratulations
which are sh0wered upon these two
well known men whenever they move
about town. 1 his is particularly the case
with Judge Hilton. The Judge is per-
sOnaily one of the best known men in
New York. He has keenregard for the
small civilities of life, and the stories
about his gruffnes are of wholesale
manufacture. He is essentially dip
lomatist. and he is never gruff without
a well-dehned purpose. His manner Is
exceedingly cordial and friendly, as is
the fashion among men who have been
many years in public life. A gentle
man who is we'll known in connection
with the railroad interests in New York
described yesterday an experience he
had in walking from Fourteenth street
to the Union club with Mr.. Hilton.
Both of the men have their time fully
occupied, and in their little iaunt
up Broadway they stopped in several
places to discharge family commissions.
Wherever they went people approached
Judge Hilton and congratulated him
upon the happy termination of the
Stewart suit.
sit was a triumphant march," said
the judges companion in speaking of it.
Everybody who met Hilton seemed to
think that the judge deserved word OF
eongratulation. BY the time we had got
above Thirty-fourIh street | felt that |
was somehow in the train of a great
public leader. HiltOn's personal fol-
towing in New York is much larger
than people usually imagine.n

ever since. Not long after this designa-
ton went out Piatt and Kelley met at a
dinner party. They were personal
friends, although political enemies.
Piatt expressed his regret at having

Polite Ly-
ing.

OltGc hy Luz TOW III COLL
greSs the past week
ing. over that parliament
airy fiction known as'sno
quorum" recalls the fact that similar
fiction prevails in polite society, which
for want of better name we call mot
at home.n The journal of congress is
often forced to do Straight-out lying by
recording ''no quorum present for the
transaction of business" when, per-
haps. four-ffths of the members were in
their seats when the record was made.
The butler or servant girl who answers
the door bell in most American homes,
is compelled to do the same sort of
compulsory lying when the caller is
told the lady of the house is not at
home-when, perhaps, the lady herself
is at that moment leaning over the stair
railing to see that the servant performs
the duty of lying faithfully. This habit
of classifying the record is easily
reconciled to most eonsciences. because
of the supposed necessities of the case.
The congressman justifieS himself for
approving false record upon the
ground that the public interests require
it. The lady who is too busy with her
household affairs to receive visitors
wishes to protectherself from the charge
of rudeneSS, and at the same time save
her caller from the modification of not
being received; SO she readily quiets
her conscience on this score and really
persuades herself into the belief that
she has done righteous act. But has
she? Isn't it better to tell the truth,
til ough it be unpalatable? Is 1t right to
educate servants and children to the
habit of lying, even though the false
hood be perpetrated from a good motive?
1t occurs to me that what society needs
is a reformer bold enough to insist upon
truth-tellIng on every occasion and
under every circumstance.

SATURDAY, JUNE II, 1890.
DEEP WATER DIET.

The interest which CenterS AROUND
deep water on the gulf coast OF Texas
ia not diminished. In his speech
welcoming the O. f. c. delegates at
Corpus Christi, on Monday last, Col.
Ropes very plainly set forth the work
in which he is engaged, as director Of
the large capital behind him. That
work is the opening of the original
Corpus Pass and Col. Ropes says that
the first cut through from Corpus
bay to the open gulf, along the line OF
that old Pass, will be made in
sixty days. That cut will be
V-shaped, ten feet deep and forty
feet across. Once this cut is made,
the rushing tides will rapidly cut
away the channel which will be
reverted with stone on its southern
face to prevent washing leaving the
northern or upper side to the action
of the currents.
While this work is being rapidly
pushed. and while the Arkansas Pass
Improvement company is getting
ready its material to commence opera
tons under the authority Of congress,
what is being done at the other end
of the line" The Galveston end,
which is being shored up by that
Sc, 2OO,OO appropriation, that is if they
ever get it.
A recent issue of the Houston Tri-
buue contains this animated notice.
GA Washington special to the Jack
sonville Fla Times-C niOn says
that the bill appropriating $3.50, 900
to secure deep water at Galveston Is
as dead as a red herring so far as be-
ing passed at this session OF congress.
The newspaper that fOrmulates Nor
man maXims and its esteemed con-
temporary that copies them will now
dissolve the mutual admiration sOcie-
ty they recently formed and again
dig up the ensanguined emblem OF
war"
Il it not fair inference from this
that the Houston Post, which is sup
pOS6u W podh IOl IlOuoIOh > DuolhOoo
men, has agreed to bury the efforts of
the syndicate, now 80 successfully
securing deep water at the mouth of
the Brazos, in order to assistGalveston
to secure that sugar-cOated apprOpri-
alton of Sc, 200 900, to experiment with
at the expense of the national treas
ury? And if so, is the Houston Post
party to this scheme to draw untold
millions from the people? Or, is il
only afraid to call things by their
right names. lest 1t give aid and en-
couragement TO the BrazOs work by
publishing what is being done there
by private capital, at comparatively
small expense, to successfully solve
this deep water problem? Or, are
HOustonians afraid of the future com,
mercial rival so certain to overshadow
them on the banks of the Brazos?
This is a very pessimistic view of the
case, to say the least. All Texas
will share in the success that attends
the securing Of deep water, 40 matter
