Sunday proved to be a busy day in
police circles, a number of serious cases
coming under the notice of the officials,
in addition to the usual lists of DRINKS
and disorderlles. The most serious of
Tense was the one committed by Charles
Walton, painter thirty-fve years of
age, who was lodged in the central
police headquarters last evening,
charged with committing an indecent
assault upon child named Winnie Nc
Namara, eight years of age, the daughter
of John Mcnamara, who resides at 413
East Fifth street. Walton is a married
man, and three years ago committed a
similar crime upon child living ON the
West side. for which he received sem
tence of two years in the states prison,
but was set at liberty when half
his term had expired. About two
months ago he went to live
with his family on East Fifth street
in house opposite to where Mcnamara
resides. Yesterday the child Winnie, in
the absence of her parents. went to play
with the two children of Walton's land
lady. Walton offered the child an
orange and took her in the basement
kitchen, where he committed the
assault. The child's cries alarmed her
companions, who ran and told a neigh
Dor. Mrs, Thomas, who, however, did
not interfere. The police were notified,

CROPS and Rus;ness

Ex-Gov. Alex Ramsey-From the
great business depression which has
afflicted st. Paul, in common with the
whole Northwest, it is my belief that
relief will come to us in the abundant
crops that we have every reason now to
anticipate in this state and the states
Immediately west of us. If, along with
this revival, we could be speedily eman-
cipated from the extravaganza habits en-
gendered in the boom period, all would
be we'll again.
Prof. Charles A. Bennett-We need a
great Increase in such legitimate lines
or business as manufacturing, milling
and jobbing-lines that are permanent
and profitable. These should greatly
overbalance the speculative and fluctu-
ating. This, in my judgment, would
have desirable effect upon the finan-
clal, political, social, moral and religious
condition of our city.
John S. Prince, President of the Saw
ings Bank of st. Paul--More concerted
action by our business men in its inter
est. and less individuality in plans and
schemes that are generally discussed.
A more general encouragement of man
utactUring by all citizens. Closer econ
Omy IN all municipal departments.
Ferdinand Willius-The greatest
needs of the city of st. Paul at the pres
ent time are honest legislation and hon
esty i'll the administration of our mu-
niclpal affairs, without selfshness, fear
or favor.
Leedom Sharp-The people should
have faith in the town as it now is. hope
for the future and charity for its pres
ent condition, which condition is the re-
suit largely of want of interest on the
part of the public in her affairs. Add to
this that great virtue economy. which
begets thrift and results in prosperity.
Economy meaning wise purchases as
well as careful savings, and living on
less than is earned.

the light that was in him. Religious
dictation kindled the cruel fire around
Bruno, and howIed with delight when
his ashes were scattered by the winds;
but his face, carved in stone, looking
over the very scene that was then be-
fore his living eyes, beholdS the dawn
of new day in that world and nation
where his body was burned.
Religious dlctation has waged long
wars between science, knowledge,
common sense and religion-wars both
bitter and cruel, which in the new era
we hope will never be known. Our
PRAYER, then, is to be delivered from
such dictaton. If we are to have pure
secularism, with brains to direct it, and
allowing freedom of inquiry, it is pref
cradle to the dictation of any religious
hierarchy. The common schools are for
education, for the drawing out and the
development of minds and moral prin-
elples good for all people-pagan, Chris
tan, Catholic, Protestant or agnostic-
and here their function ends. Sec
tartan religion should be taught in
churches. Give US the secular school,
then, with platform broad enough TO
embrace all, with common privileges
for all, and with special privileges for
none. Here every child is the peer of
every other; here principles of loyalty,
justice and honor are taught, and in it
we have an institution we dearly prize;
and we believe that no hand will ever
be reckless enough to strike the dagger
to its heart

Home Industries.

William L. Phelps-Speaking in a
general way, am impressed with the
conviction that the greatest of our needs
is the entire suppression of political fac
tons and partnership in the manage
ment of our political affairs. There IS
nothing in the nature of municipal gov
eminent that justifies the resort to cor
rupt partisan methods in the admins
tration of its functions. Our municipal
business should be conducted on strict
business ana economic principles. This
is just the point in our system Of govern
ment where the reformed civil service
should be brought TO bear in the educa-
ton of the people TO higher ideal of
citizenship and official service. 1t is safe
to affirm that the methods which obtain
in the management of our local
interests as q city, carried into
a railway, manufacturing or a
other industrial enterprise, would
speedily send it straight to bankruptcy.
No valid reason can be given why the
functions of city government should
not be executed with the honest and
loyal purpose of promoting the best in
terests of the whole people. [ believe
that here is the root of most of the evils
that now affiict US. The question of re-
forming our municipal governments
importance it is one of the foremost that
challenges the serious consideration of
the American people. 1t is the one weak
spot in our republican form of govern
ment. We,cannot expect to eliminate the
difficulties which beset us, without
radical change in our cur
rent municipal methods. Referring par
Jicularly to our material interests, it
may be affirmed that st. Paul needs a
greater number and variety of Industrial
establishments, furnishing employment
for the unemployed; proper adjust
ment of the hours of labor and ade-
quate compensation therefor, giving to
the patieht toiler the time. the means
and the opportunity for intellectual,
moral and social improvement. We are
sending too much money abroad for
those things which can as well be pro-
duced at home. Too much of our avail
able capital is sent away from the city
for investment, which might, with
greater profit to the individual and ben
eft to the people. be used at home. In
the Judgment of the undersigned we
have an excess of investment compa-
MES, and deficiency OF those pro
ductive enterprises whose benefits are
diffused among all classes of our peo-
pie. conducting to the general happiness
and prosperity.

Zlne-ln municipal affairs, with a strong,
public-spirited, unselfish man as lead
er, endowed with sufficient gift of popu-
larity to keep majority of the voters at
his back, we need. not more caucuslng

FIR. John Conway, Editor Northwest
ern Chronlcle-The need of st. Paul
from a financial standpoint is not so
much more money as more enterprise.
Our wealthy citizens are not as enter
prising as those of other cities of less
pretensioDs. Recent events have shown
that there is room also for Improvement
in the financial departments of this city.
This Improvement can be brought about
by putting in Office men sufficiently hon
est to stop stealing and sufficiently
capable to prevent mlSmanagement.
C.H.Llenau, Editor of VOlkSZeitung-
Confidence in ourselves is the basis for
our future success. Greater liberality
III fostering new enterprises should be
shown by men who have made their
fortunes here. The croakings in the
chamber of commerce do not improve
our financial, nor the lamentations IN

ulatlon. avenues of employment must
be multiplied, to accomplish which it is
necessary for our men of means to act

Many of our people became demoraliZed
a few years ago with the-eraze of max
ing fortunes in short time by real

would answer, more enterprise and less
fear of taking a diminished bank ac
count to the cemetery. While Ethe citi-
Zens of st. Paul are no more greedy
than perhaps those of other cities. there
are too many who sit up nights to Guilt
vate spirit of conservatism. We need
more men who when they secure five
talents will go out with the same and
gain five talents more and fewer of the
class of Improbable servants who are
ready to say, II was afraid and went

Standing still in st. Paul means going
backward. We have too many who are
willing to stand still and, grasping such
possessions as they have, cling to them
as though they would live forever and
secure big rate of interest after that
period had expired. While prudence
i'll business affairs is to be commended,
there is a prudence which is akin to
cowardice and positive crime to com

Details. Not Generalities.

Corporation Attorney Dan w. Law
ler-Henry A. Castle is reported to have
said in paper read some months ago
to social and literary club in this city
that the best-governed city in the world
was Washington. in the District of
Columbia, and that the next in point of
good government was ST. Paul. This
opinion comedies with my own. | can
not discover any radical defect in our
laws, or any radical abuse in their ad-
miniS,ration. Most of the alleged mis-
takes and abuses in city affairs, which
are being ventilated To-Day, are the
result of negligence On the part of the
citizen. 1t is the duty of the citizen to
actively and continuously participate in
municipal matters. This is the
tinguiShed from government by
proxy. The keenest minds and the
most incisive tongues in our city are
quieScent while the hard and dry de-
tails of municipal governments are being
worked out. They are aroused to ac-
tivity, which manifests itself in criti-
ciSm instead Of suggestion, only during
the few months of a legislative session
instead of during all the daysof the cal
endar year. The "best citizens" avoid
as contamination the primary cleo
ton, which, in our political machinery,
is the town meeting" OF the New Eng
land of the Puritans and Pilgrims. They
are satisfied with prOciaiming from the
housetopS their wants and their de-
mands, but the work of reform is TO be
done in the streets, the alleys and the
bywayS. Only few days ago the leg
islative delegation from this county
gave hearing to a committee of citi-
ZenS who presented the intelligence, the
patriotism and the material wealth of
our city. The committee had requested
the hearing for the purpose of
suggesting needed legislation in
city and county affairs. Several
members of the committee, worthy and
successful men. whose names are SYM
bolS Of integrity and ability. addressed
the delegation, urging in'general terms
the need of economy, retrenchment and
self-sacrifice at the present juncture..
They dealt entirely in distractions, and
each speaker, cOnfeSsing his ignorance
of the details of needed legislation and
existing evils, referred the delegation
to the attorney Of the committee for
specific information as to both. This
is knowledge by proxy. Glittering
generalities seem to be necessary in
political platforms, but the man of ac-
curate, precise knowledge. the man of
details, is the man who can assist in
the work of good government. 1t
seems to me that the great evils Of mu-
nicipal government are government by
proxy and knowledge by proxy. The
fault and the remedy for both lie chiefly
in the private citizen.

Wore Manufactures.

William Bickel, President Minnesota
Savings Bank-Our city needs manu-
factories in order to furnish work for
our laboring classes and in order to Sc
cure them. | would advise that pub
lie meeting be held for that purpose.
and that meeting appoint a committee

cation has done nothing whatever for

trary kept large number of applicants

Judge Charles E. Observation-Disclosures
clally, we are passing through a period
of semi-depression, Occasionei by a
previous excessive indulgence. in which
we discounted the future to consider
able extent. This was principally in
real estate, but more or less affected all
branches of industry refiectively, as it
touched the individual engaged in such
other work. In other words, we have
had financial spree, and we are now
suffering from the consequent and ip-
eyitable headache. For this affection
recommend patience, industry and
economy. These remedies have cured
st. Paul of this complaint several times
before when we had it very badly, and
they Will surely do it again.

and Officer Cogan went to the house,
but as he had no warrant could not
break the doors open. An excited
crowd of neighbors threatened to smash
the doors and lynch Walton. but soon
Sergeant Pottgeiser arrived with
search warrant, when Walton opened
the doors. The police had difficulty in
keeping him from being seized by the
crowd when the patrol wagon arrived.
The child told a straightforward story
of the ,offense, and said that
Sunday. At police headquarters he
gave his name as walters" and tried
to bluff as to where he lived, but Jailer
O'Keefe recognized him as Walton, and
when told that that was his name he
admitted it. He will be brought up In
the municipal court this morning. John
Mccartney, a fresco painter, was ar
rested last evening by Officer Haney
for. assault upon Mrs. Mccartney.
1t seems that Mccartney, who has
been married nine years and has little
boy, has lived unhappily with his wife.
and some months ago the pair figured in
the courts in Minneapolis, the wife at
tempting to secure divorce on the
ground of non-support, but failed to OBJ
tain decree. Mccartney claims that
five months ago his wife left him, tax
ing the child with her. Yesterday he
came over to st. Paul to >try
and ascertain where his wife
had placed the child, and while
walking on East Seventh street met his
wife with man walking arm in arm.
He at once rushed at the pair and
caught hold of his wife, but the other
fellow took to his heels and ran away.
AS the wife claims to have been struck
and Mccartney was very noisy, lie was
sent to the central police station,
where he languished over night.
He stated last evening that he only
wanted his child and that he would
sue for divorce, as ne had sufficient
evidence against the woman to obtain
the separation. Officer Joe Davis, the

Enterprise and Faith.

L. \. Scott, Manager Metropolitan
Opera House, think st. Paul is sadly
in need of more enterprising capitalists
who will hold out inducements to for
eign industries to locate in this city, as
in my opinion this city has reached its
maximum in population, and cannot in
crease unless other Industries are estab-
lished which would be an lDducement
for labOring people to come here. thus
adding new life to the city of st. Paul.
Arnold Kalman, Capitalist-It seems
to me that one of the greatest needs of
st. Paul at the present time is to inspire
some OF its wealthy citizens with more
faith-faith in the future destiny of this
great commonwealth. Let the gospel of
st. Paul be preached far and wide; let
them by precept and example demon
strate their faith in the future of this
city instead of sitting upon their money
bags; let them help develop and i'm
prove the city; let them stop croaking
and shake off their so-called conserva-
tism, get little more push and enter
prise in them, and if you succeed you
will have made a great stride IL eradi-
eating one of the greatest evils.

TOUCHING TRIBUTE
Paid Mother Agatha in the Funer-
al Service Yesterday.

diu nOtnef Agatha III the Il un6r.
al Service Yesterday.
The remains of Mother Agatha, whose
death was noted yesterday, were lying
in state at the chapel of the Convent of
the Visitation yesterday during the
forenoon. Solemn services were held
early in the morning, participated in
only by the sisters of the house. At
1850 D. m. the public services took place
in the chapel, and were largely attended
both by clergy and laity. Rev. Father
Calllet, pastor of st. Mary's church, who
had known the deceased intimately for
a quarter Of century, delivered very
touching eulOgy, in which he recounted
the distinguished life and services in
holy religion of Mother Agatha. 1t was
beautiful tribute to as noble a soul as
ever trod Gods footstool. During the
delivery the speaker was visibly affect
ed and the auditors were moved to tears
by the pathetic recital. The remains
were taken to Calvary cemetery for in
torment, and were followed to their
final resting place by a large number of
people. Among those present at the
services were JIG. Prendergast, DIR.
Macdonald, Michael Mealey, DR.. Mar
koe, John Kerwin, J. l. Beaumont, j.
q. Donnelly, G. j. Mccarthy.
