the broadcast sense, to investigate into
all branches of knowledge, to dissem-
mate learning among the people of
st. Paul and vicinity by classes,
lectures, discussions and pub
LEGATIONS on scientific subjects;

ing science, to collect library of scien-
titic works. and to acquire and hold real

for university and school extension.
This movement began fourteen years
ago in England. in the universities of
Oxford and Cambridge. Glasses under

MARCUS MAKES 1T.

Senator WAsHBURN continues to close
up his ranks. The name of MARCUS
JOHNSON went to the senate yesterday.
Still there was no mention of Capt
DoNAHowEB for marshal. If the
patched-up compromise which is re-
ported to have been made between the
two Minnesota senators is to hold water,
then the name of Capt. DoNAHowER
ought to have accompanied Mr.. JOHN
SONS. 1t is possible that Mr.. WIN
DoM's fine hand has been felt in this
business, and the appointment of "a
marshal is being held back until il can
first be ascertained whether the APP
pointee will work in concert with the
rest of the official crew who are ex-
pected to elect WINDOW legislature

Democratic list of states this year may
include that state. Inview of the wild
work of the ballot choppers in that eX-
celient state of recent years, such re-
suit seems like the cream OF partisan
enthusiasm, but there are local circum-
stances in their favor. The Republic
ans have passed law that interferes
with the parochial schools where in
structiOn is given in German, which
disatfects many German voters, and the
state administration is unpopular. But
the most encouraging feature in con-
iiection with the situation in that state
is the evident purpose of the Demo-
Gratis to do straight party work. A new
state committee is In charge, aud will
make the campaign on unadulterated
Democratic principles. This was the
policy in that state in early times, and
the party felt better and was bigger
than it has been since it began to
stand around inviting outside factions
to get into its band wagon and help
make the music. There have been sew
eral of the speciality third and fourth
parties ia that state, and often fusion
has been made with the Democrats.
Milwaukee affords a palpable illustra-
ton of the results OF this lowering of
the party standards for some immediate
advantage. That city, few years ago,
was always good for several thousand
Democratic majority. 1t was one of the
stronghol'Is, but it hasn't been that way
the past few years. The old 5000 ma
iOrity has disannearad Same Snepjal
local causes may have had influence,
but the party would be stronger and
better equipped for usefulness if it had
no entanglementS with other elements.
Dickers with little gangs of hobby
riders, or even factions devoted to single
worthy, but unduly magnifed issues,
lead to loss of tone and prestige, and
involve some compromise of prin-
ciple. The need of the situation
is not different in Wisconsin from
that in Minnesota. Iowa or other states.
At the late election in Iowa the Demo-
Gratis came nearer getting SQuarely on
the Democratic track than they have
for number of years. and they won a
dashiag victory, if not sweeping one.
Still, immediate success is less impor-
tant than TO get together around the
right issues. The demand should ring
out from every proclamation of the
party for reduction and reform of the tar
iff.and free and honest ballot. A party
success that doesn't mean these can
have small worth. Ii there are any who
attempt to lead it away from these
lines, they are in the wrong camp.

President HARRISON has succeeded
in stirring up a first-class row among
the Illinois politicians by his appoint
ment of a collector of the port at Chi
cagO, and there is also promise that
ructOn of considerable dimensions will
be raised in the senate over it. The
two Illinois senators had united with
the state Republican committee in rec
Ommending one candidate. This can
did tie also had the Endorsement of the
Republican press of Chicago. But
when the president came to make up
the Illinois casket of jewels he ignored
the favorites OF the Illinois senators and
appointed as collector of the Chicago
port and as revenue collector for that
district two gentlemen who not only
had not been recommended by
Senators CULLoM and FARwELI,
but were absolutely objectionable
to them. And, to judge from the tone
of the Chicago press, the appointees
are just as Objectionable to the Repub-
lican party of Cook county.
The presidents action in this matter
is not looked upon so much as the exer-
else of executive independence as it is
regarded an act of defiance to the Hi
nOis senators. ana is intended to convey
TO them the meaning that this admins
tration has neither clemency nor respect
for those Illinois politicians who under
took to force GRESHAM candidacy
upon the last national convention.
Having Won the presidency in spite of
their efforts to defeat MIN, Gen. HAIR
RIsON now signifies his purpose
to make horrible example of
MessrS. CULLoM and FARwELL in order
tOdeter opposition to his denomination in
1892. Taxing this aspect of the fight, it
will be interesting to watch further de-
Velopments. If the president can main
tain his position and force the confirma-
ton by the senate of his Illinois ap-
pOintees, he will have gained his point
and virtually have secured his renomipa-
ton. But if he fails, woe he unto him.
1t is stated that Senator FARwELL is
fighting mad, and has made up his mind
to contest every inch of ground in the
senate in his opposition to the confirma-
ton. He has raised that old war cry
in the senate which has so often
up IIc
battle cry of senatorial courtesy. This
is good card for Mr.. FARwEI.I.. be-
cause there isn't a senator but whose
cOrns are trampled upon when the presi-
dent asserts the right of making ap-
pointments without first consulting the
senators who are interested in the APP
pOintments. 1t is true the constitution
of the United States copfers that right
upon the president, but the constitution
doesn't count for anything in the esti-
nation of senator when his senatorial
prerogative is at stake. 1t will be all
the more interesting, therefore, to
watch the outcome of Mr.. FARWELL5s
fight against the president. If he wins.
the plutoerats of the upper branch of
congress will be more strongly en-
trenched in power than before; but if
he fails, then farewell for the remain
der of this administration to that famous
fiction known as senatorial courtesy.
The president will be in the saddle;
and, divesting ourselves of all partisan
feeling in the matter, we say in all sim
certify we hope he will be able to keep
his seat.

the lines now owned by companies or
individuals. The reports of the officers
showed the order to be in a satisfactory
condition. There was also disposition
to form closer union with the labof
unions, in order that the enemies OF
lobor who are candidates for Office
might be defeated at the polls. The
order also expressed sympathy with re.

obtain shorter hours. and promised

PARIS, Jan. 2O.-M. Constans, the
minister Of the interior. in reply to a
question from Deputy Chitze, ex-
planned that the government had
annuiled the municipal credits
in favor Of strikers in the department of
the Rh0ne. because the municipal
authorities had exceeded their powers.
NJ. JOffrin mounted the tribune to speak
upon the subject, but his appear

authority of the chamber, publicly
cenSured him and called upon him
to withdraw. He refused to obey

soldiers forcibly removed Deroulede
from the chamber. NJ. Joffrin. who had
remained in the tribune, now endeay-

BOulangistS and reactionists renewed
their protests. The BOuangist Mile
vote violently denounced the admission
of .Joffrin to the chamber as a vio-
lation of the sovereignty of the peO-
Pile. Miileyo;e was called to order
and commanded to Withdraw. He also
refused TO withdraw, when the sitting
was suspended for half an hour. Upon

BOulangist. declined to permit M. Joffrin
TO espeak. He met the fate of Mile

the annulment of the credits and at
tackled Gen. Boulanger. The chamber
