what the People are saying.

Judge Noonan's comment upon grant
ing the mandamus requiring the mayor
| and clerk to submit the poll lists 70 In
| Spection, was very much TO the point;
| the Judge said that this is in theory q
! government OF the people, and the olhcIals
| are the servants OF the people, now Iai
this theory is carried out he was not pre-
| pared to say.
| 1t is well to remind officials, from the
! Judge on the inch TO to the constable on
the street, that they serve the peoPIe,
| and are in no sense the masters ana rulers
| of the people.
The people pay their wages, lay down
| the rules for their guidance, ana expect
them 10 do their duty toward their en-
pIoyerS, not to assume to be their masters,
and conduct themselves as If the people
were their servants.
The city charter is to be tinKered at
again by the legislature. 1t is understood
that a sort of compromise measure has
been fixed up. The trouble is, the COM
promise leaves both the people and the
city administration in the soup.
If the 10 per cent sinking fund clause is
not changed so as to be made apply TO the
mess is the city in with only levy to pay
per cent?
The Express has discovered party OPP
posed to ''muncip Il progress" and fixes
their numerical or voting strength at 1884.
1t is evident that the Express has made

THE trouble with our city is" remark
ed a Shrewd business man, that we have
too many men of big capital, too much
money is the trouble, not too little. III we
had more men with from ten thousand 10
thirty thousand dollars, we would have
more enterprise" The observation Is
certainly correct.
The millionaire is an interest grabber,
the successful man with a growing capital
is ventursome aud ready to make invest
ments. that promise to Increase his gains
al a greater speed than the coupon route.
There is plenty of money in San An
tonic, but IL is in too few hands. Selfish
prise is strangpd by the clutch of the
conservative rich men.
The county commissioners court begins
to put on imperial ways. 1t advertises
for bids for courthouse site to be paid
for in five per cent bonds, and after the
bidding changes the rate Of interest to six
per cent. This is big difference; so big
that it would be but just TO all bidders to
advertise it over again. The difference
between six per cent and five per cent
bond is big item and all the sites offered
would be offered on lower terms.

large number of Hungarian brigands
are ON their way, and also over 400
Sicilians, who are leaving home for
their countries good. Some day per-

ais and their criminal progeny may
make it exceedingly uncomfortable
for us. We have talked of this thing
for years. Action is better late than
never. Our Consuls and other public
officers abroad should be commanded
to look strictly to the matter, and held
to account for their action, and officers
at our home ports should be held to
the strictest accountability for their

The Minneapolis Times has the fol-

may be that Grover Cleveland has
seen great awakening light on the
silver question. His denials and criti-
cisms of the Stephens interview am
ount only to this, that he didn't know
Stephens was loaded for publication.
Of course it is not safe to assume that
Mr.. Cleveland has two sets Of opinions
on the silver question, one for the
public and another for his old friends
from the western part of the state
The New York Sun recently said that
Grover was a nihilist on the silver
question. But he has progressed. He
is now no worse than an agnostic
This is substantial if not statesman
like growth.

New York Sun; Aboard the Thing
valla Line Steamship "Hecla," that
arrived at this port Sunday, there were
700 Scandinavian immigrants, healthy
hearty, pithy and light-haired young
people of both sexes. They were
bound for the West, the far West, ev-
en- for Dakota, where they will take uI
land and begin a new life as American
farmers, raising grains, fruits and cat
tie for their own nourishment and fol
the service of mankind. They were
well and warmly dressed as they
marched ashore, and they looked as
though they possessed all necessary
sense, reason, and practical qualities.
There were among them no paupers,
Or felons, or lunatics, or contract lab
orers, or persons afflicted with loath-
some diseases, it was hardly necessary
for the inspection agents at the Barge
Office to take look at them in order
to see that they belonged to the class
known as desirable immigrants"
They had come to America as hund,
reds of thousands of other Swedes
and Norwegians have come during the
past forty years; they have struck out
West to take lands as those others did
and they are pretty sure of enjoying
the prosperity that SO many of theil
countrymen already enjoy here. Tc
them let bountiful nature give good
crops, fine breeds of cattle, and pleas
ant long lives.
Now, if all our immigrants from
Europe, including those from Italy
Poland, Hungary, and Russia, were
as spirited as these Scandinavians, and
would follow their example, how much
better it would be for them than
crowding into cities, struggling fol
daily hash and spending years in
complaining.

Next Friday is Arbor day, let it be
remembered. And in this connection
we quote what our friend j. 0. Barrett,
secretary of the Forestry AS sociation,
says in regard to that day: Our beau
tiful forest festival the 1st of May, is
close at hand. Let us respect his ex-
ceIlency, Gov. W. R. Merriam, by OBJ
serving it with tree planting in our
fields, in our lawns, around all our
buildings, in our cemeteries to hallow
the memories of the dear departed,
along our streets for protective shade
and healthfulness. Plant one tree, at
least, and care for it as your own, and
thus build for posterity. Those en-
gaging in this beneficial work in any
part of our state will please report the
number and variety of trees, and where
planted, to me.

In view of recent occurrences it
would seem proper that law should
be enacted compelling all foreigners
who come to this country with the in
tention of engaging in business, in
any capacity, to renounce allegiance
to their former country and make ap-
plication for citizenship in our own.
At first glance such law would ap-
pear to be unnecessarily harsh, but it
isn't. It's opponents will charge that
it will restrict immigration, and it will f;
and that is just what this country has
got to do sooner or later, the sooner
the better, and in what better way
can it be done than by compelling all
foreigners desirous of enjoying the
advantages of living in this country
to declare their intention46f Of becoming
citizens2

Mayors Proclamation.
DETROIT, Mich, April 24..-The entire
system of the city railway company is
paralyzed. The only cars out Were two
on the Woodward avenue lineI Nine
hundred stove molders have q1ft work
and joined the strikers to prevent the
running of cars. Tracks were torn up
on three lines and obstructions have
been placed on every line. The men the
company had hired to take the strikers
places refuse to take out cars.
The Mayor Proclaims.
The mayor has issued proclamation
calling upon all citizens to keep order
and recit1ng the statute empowering
him to call out the militia in case Of
necessity.
Small gangs Of strikers in various
parts of the city are tearing up street
car tracks and building barricades. The
police do not seem able to stop the strik-
ers, who move from place to place very
rapidly. Late at night the officials of
the street car company decided not to
attempt to run any cars in the morning.
They Will Arbitrate.
The mayor sent letter to the street
car officials suggesting that the trouble
between the company and its employees
be settled by arbitration. Late IN the
afternoon the secretary of the street
railway replied, accepting the mayors
suggestion. It is not thought that any
attempt to run cars will be made until
the committee on arbitration reports.

both as to funds and management.
Our committee was working with the
senate committee on agriculture,
which was pursuing the same line of
investigation, and my presence at the
capitol was simply in line Of my duty
as worker on the committee"
"In the meeting of the executive
committee of the state alliance this
morning Mr.. Donnelly made some
statements which show the animus Of
his attack on me and upon Secretary
Warren, to this effect: That the state
central committee of the Alliance par
ty was appointed simply for the last
| campaign, and that it's authority did
not extend beyond the campaign.
That it had no authority to commit
any work or to call future convention.
Mr.. Donnelly also stated that the ALI
ance party was not on par with the two
old parties. That the Alliance party
was the accidental production of the
Farmers Alliance convention and the
labor convention held last July, and
| it's accidental existence ended with
the termination of the campaign; that
in spite Of the fact that it stands on
the records of the state as having full
filled all the conditions necessary to
the existence of a new party under
the Australian ballot law, yet accord
ing to-that gentleman, neither it nor
its state central committee have longer
an existence of power to act: h HIS is is
the milk in the cocoanut. Mr.. Don
nelly intends to force the Farmers
Alliance to nominate him for the next
governor of the state. He proposes
to sweep from his path any obstacle
which may stand between him and the
governors chair. He realizes that the
Alliance state central committee is
snch an obstacle, and therefore he has
left nothing undone to remove it from
the way. He is doing allin his power
in a quiet way to undermine MIR.
Ovens position in the minds of the
farmers of this state, and he has even
gone so far as to state that he could
not support Mr.. Owen. Possibly the
fifty-eight thousand voters who make
up the Alliance party may take seri-
Gus issue with Mr.. Donnelly on this
point when tims shall come"

The executive committee of the
Farmers Alliance had lively time
in st. Paul last week. Mr.. Donnelly
was anxious to have Miss Eva Nc
Donald removed as state lecturer and
asked her to resign, claiming that she
had not been regularly elected, but
Eva could not see it in that light, and
refused to tender her resignation as
state lecturer. Donnelly accused her
of drawing salary from the St. Pau
Globe at the time of her election as
state lecturer. Inreply to this charge
Miss Mcdonald said: Il never was on
the Globe staff as q regular reporter
and besides if | was | don't see how
that should apply in this case, fol
everybody knows that the Alliance is
but Democratic combine, SO | don't
see the force of your remark"
Donnelly attempted to explain by
saying that while combination
might have been made in the legisla
ture, the Democrats were the natura
enemy of the Alliance.
Finally Donnelly asked that yea
and nay vote be taken on his resolu

things, 81 have opposed the passage
of the interest bill forfeiting the prin'
cipal of the honest non-residents, fol
without that clause money would flow
into this state for anywhere between

be beneficial. In my views | coincide
