City Attorney LaWler, President Muir

of the garbage, the same to be
delivered to Henry FieishmaH or his
assignees at the location of the plant of
| the Merz system in the city of st. Paul,

Bishop Turner Favors Negro Emil
grafton From America.


BosToN, Sept. 21.-Bishop Henry Nc
Neill Turner spoke to large congrega-
ton of cOlored people last night in the
A. Nj. E. church on Charles street, on
his proposed trip to Africa, and in adj
vocacy of the migration of 100000 or
10000 of the colored race to that con-
tinent. His observation, he said, had
taught him that there was little hope
for the colored race in this country;
that the best thing that number of
them could do was to 20 to some other
country, set up a government of
their own and demonstrate that the Y
had III them native ability TO admins
ter the affairs of state. In Africa he
saw such country. 1t was rich in gold,
silver, precious stones, and minerals OF
all descriptions, such as a people start
ing to govern themselves would need to
make them strong and mighty. He
Solemnly believed that the black men
and women in America would finally
be the instrument to redeem and Chris
tianize Africa, and plant OH her soil one
OF the grandeSt governments on which
the sun ever shOne. A few weeks ago,
in a conversation he had with PresI-
dent Harrison, the latter wondered why
the colored people took so little interest
in the subject. The bishop stated that
in his talk with President Harrison Oil
the subject he suggested an appropria-
ton by congress to purchase tract of
land III Africa and the appointment of
a commission of twelve, seven colOred
and i've white, to carry Oh the negotia-
ton.

THE SECOND STRONGEST.
Minnesota a Stronghold OF tn e
Lutheran DenOmina alton.

1t has been we'll said, "Despise not
the day of small things" A little over
eight years ago there was 10 such thing
known northwest of Chicago as an
American Lutheran church. Everybody
who knew anything at all, knew that
every year brought quantities of Lu-
theranS from Germany, Sweden, Nor
way and Denmark, but that the chill
dren Of these people, becoming Ameri-
canned. should have or need to have
their old faith preached to them in the
language of the land occurred to but
few. However, the American Lutheran
church, which is becoming of vast pro-
portions in the East, Senta missionary
to Minnesota eight years ago, and now
there are, as result, thirteen English
speaking Lutheran congregations and
eighteen Sunday schools in the North
west.
1t may be news to some that Mime
sofa is very strong Lutheran state,
being the second strongest in the Union,
and that, with the possible exception
of ST. Louis or Milwaukee, st. Paul or
Minneapolis are the strongest Lutheran
centers on this continent in proportion
to their population.
1t is, therefore, matter of no little
interest to the iutheranS of the cities
and state that to-day convention will
be held in the MemoriaF English Luther
an church, on West Sixth street. near
Exchange, for the purpose of organic
ing the English Evangelical Lutheran
Synod of the Northwest. The opening
service will be held at p. m, with a
sermon by Rev. G. II. Gerberding, of
Fargo. Wednesday evening at there
will be mass meeting in Trinity
church, West side, corner of Ada and
Robbie streets, one block from the Con-
cord street electric line; Thursday
evening at the dedication of st. Mark S
church, North St. Paul; Friday even
ing at s, in Memorial church, foreign
mission festival. Prominent workers
in the mission fields of the Northwest
will be present to make addresses.

Commissioners to Condemn

Judge Nelson, of the United States
district court. has named o. G. Merri-
man, of Minneapolis; ex-Gov. Austin,
of st. Paul, and j. Grinnell, of Kasson,
commissioners to condemn lands near
Sandy lake for use by the government
for reservoir purposes. This appoint
ment is in pursuance of an act of con-
gress of 1882, which provides for the
construction of series of dams and
reservoirs on The upper Mississippi ana
its tributaries, with view of holding
waters in times of freshets to prevent
flooding of lands on the lower Missls-
Sippi liver. The commissioners will

country. Then the ludicrous vacillatiOn
that marked the events leading to plac-
ing hides on the free list were recited.
The Big Four of Chicago wanted big
tax OH hides because they were large
producers. They are Immensely
wealthy, and they went to Washington
and induced Mckinley to place tariff
on hides. Then the New England man
ufacturers went down and told Mckin-
ley that he would lose every New Eng
land state 10 the party if he didn't take
the tariff off, and it was straightway
eliminated. Then Armour got iii his
work again, and the New England
manufacturers had to make second
trip to get the duty off. A third time
Armour succeeded, and a third time the

The tin plate fraud was thoroughly
exposed. Mr.. Campbell arraigned it in
drastic words. He said that the only
tin plate that is being manufactured
here is being manufactured for CAM
paign purposes. A tax of S15.000,000 is
being Levied upon the masses to give
certain benefits to three or four tin
plate milllonaires.
Mr.. Campbell asserted that the
ubiquitous tariff levies is the very thing
that leads up to strikes and lOckOuts
and the cause of civil disturbances. He
said the tariff question is a simple
problem and easy of solution, yet a
governor of Minnesota had confessed
that it was too deep for his comprehen-
sion. The speaker had sneer for the
erudition of such governor. Mr..
Campbell insisted that if the tariff is
allowed TO continue as in the past decade,
the social and political condition will be
the same as across the seattle son of
the rich man will be born to revel in
wealth and the son of the poor man will
be born to toll.
Blaine's reciprocity plank was eX-
posed, and the speaker spent deal of

voting. He importuned the members
of the club to spare no pains to make
the next election all educational cam
paign, beginning in the work at once.
