ward bringing about a happy solution
Of the question. Unless 1eparation is
made to the United States, Chill must
take her medicine. England, though,
believes that the little South American
republic would defeat the United
States. and that is what England would
like to see. Such war would not last
long. Chill with handful Of people,
depleted treasury and few naval gun
boats would have an uphill JOHN fight
ing Uncle Sans marine fore. We hope
there will not be any war for human
ity's sake. and that Chilli will do her
duty IN the premises. The United
States do not ask for any more than
they are entitled to, and 1t will be much
the iser policy for Chill to acknowl-
edge ber guilt than take chances III war
with this country. A live coward ls
often better than dead hero, and
Chilli may know this later On.

MAYOR WINSTON returned home
from Washington last Saturday morn
ing much pleased with the outlook for
holding the Democratic national con-
vention in st. Paul. He said there
were some very strong and obstinate
competitors in the field for this honor,
but that he thought st. Paul stood an
excellent chance Of winning He heard
many very pleasant compliments about
the Twin cities while away from nome,
and was proud to think he was mayor
of city OF so much enterprise as Min
neapohs. Every place he went he heard
something good Of Minneapolis. Every
one was talking Minneapolis. and this
was the best sort of advertising Mime
apolis could get. When the national
committee meets next month they Will
name the date and place of holding the
Democratic national convention. We
hope St. Paul will get the prize for it

going to Ireland to help settle factional
disputes, the Republic says: "The peo-

should unanimously nominate Mr..
John Howard Parnell to represent
them in the, House Of Commons. There
Is a vacancy In the borough, caused by
the sudden death Of Mr.. Richard
Power, M. 2. Both sides should unite
in rendering the honor Of an uncon-

H1BERNIAN RECORD: England has
dealt harshIy with Ireland and has
given it no cause to believe that the
milk of human kindness flows in the
breasts Of any of its rulers. 1t may be
we'll to note that every concession to
Ireland, every alleged peace-offering,
has come to poor, suffering Ireland only
through fear of the consequences Of re-
fusal. Putting British ministers in
fear has brought great gain to Irishmen,
and some dav perhaps, will be tried
again with profit.

THE Tribune says that the North Star
Association of Democratic clubs is
short of money, and that there is no
harmony in the ranks of the Minnesota
Democracy. The Tribune, we are rell-
ably informed, is mistaken IN the prem.
ises and therefore in error. The North
Star is III very healthy condition, and
is growing stronger. 1t is the province
of a Republican paper to mlsrepresent
the Democratic party if it sees tit, but
wholesale misrepresentation, even in
this case, are uncalled for. When the
votes are counted next November the
Tribune will see what the North Star
Association has accomplished.

sitior made firm friends for cold Mart
from the first meeting with him. he
had high regard for his profession,
thoroughly reliable and painstaking. and
was ever careful to give the facts, as
near as possible, without color OF sensa'
tionalism. In his daily walke Of life, to
'be-not to appear-w Was characteristic OF
the man. and his pleasant countenance
and kindly salutation will long be re-
p1embered by those with whom lie came

she Grand Opera house, last Sunday
allowed how strongly he was held IN the
affections OF the people. The attend
ance was so large that many were un'
able to gain admittance, and of those
present every station in lite was repre-
sentea TO do honor to the departed dead.
It was a faithful tribute to an honorable
and upright citizen who had honored his

such men do live after them~--to the up

ENGLAND IN DANGER.

While the people of the United States
are discussing the probabilities of a wal
between this country and Chilli, Europe
is much more excited over the warllke ap.
pearance of things in India. Not many
days ago q number of British troops
near Gilgit, on the River Indus, were
attacked BY frontier tribesmen, who
fought With u desperation that sur
pr1sed the British, but were finally put
to flight. When the prisoners who were
captured, were searched, papers and
arms OF Russian stamp were found on
them, and this convinced the British
that these tribesmen were being assisted
by the Russian government. The gen
eral opinion Of the Europeans, and
Americans as we'll, who are informed on
the status of things in that country. is
that Russia is determined to have "a
large slice of India if possible; that
nothing will stop that country in it's
march on India, save general uprising
of the European powers, and this, we'll
informed men say will surely come.
Hon, Greed Raymond, the we'll known
politician of San Francisco, and who is
one of the best posted men in this coun-
try on European politics, takes the fol-
lowing view of the case from what he
knows Of the recent troubles in Pamir;
s'The Pamlr affair merely shows Rus
sia's intentions upon India. It is but
another slight evidence that war is iney-
table. It Russia defeats Germany in

SOUTH Minneapolis people are going
to take care of their own affairs there
hereafter. They propose to get along
without the aid of the Business Men s
Union, and will work for factories fol-
South Minneapolis. They think that
the idea of transporting all new enter
prises coming to Minneapolis, to St.
Louis Park is not the thing, and that
South Minneapolis ought to get a
chance. South Minneapolis has many
fine buildings that could be used with
good advantage for new manufacturing
plants, and If the business men OF that
locality see fit to invest any more in
local factories so much better for South
Minneapolis. These new manufacture
ing concerns that are weekly coming to
our city should be fairly distributed
about the city. But those who are apt
to find fault with the Business Men s
Union should not forget the valiant
services of many members Of that union
in securing many new and handsome
industries for our city. particularly L.
B. Walker. Mr.. Walker cannot be &C.
cused of selfishness by any means. and
should be given all the credit possible.
IF all our public men were Of the stamp
of T. b. Walker we would be very
fortunate.

QUEER SCENES

1t was thought that the bad feeling
that existed in the ranks OF the Irish
Nationaists had successfully worked it,
self off in Cork, when Messrs. Redmond
and Flavin contested the seat made va
cant by the death of mr.. Parnell. Tn
fortunately, however, their still fingers
in Irish politics minority shat seeks to
rule in spite of the TACT that they have
been defeated as often as they came up
for endorsement 1t was disgraeeful
scene that was Witnessed in Waterford
last Sunday when the admirers OF tine
opposing factions met in the streets OF
that historic city. The police, OF course
were there in large numbers, but what
did they do? They quietly looked on
and let the followers Of Redmond do as
they pleased. There IS vacancy in the
Waterford borough owing to the death
OF Richard Power, and the Mccarthy
men nominated Mr.. Keane for the va
oapcy. while Redmond, who was defeated
in Cork by Flavin, is again the Par
nellite candidate. The followers OF both
factions met and row resulted. Many
persons are reported injured, Michael
Davitt being among the number. Such
uisgra cefnl scenes should not be heard
of in Ireland. Redmond and his hand
full of followers are not worthy OF the
name of Irishmen. Will they never
learn to respect the majority? When
we see this. man and few others oppose
the majority Of the Irish people, and
Eight against the interests of their coun-

and Europe says that there will surely

say that Chill is making all possible

countries is not very promising. The

MUCH interest is being manifested bY
this country In this matter Of Irish in-
dustrles. The question has received
great deal Of attention on the part of
the Countess, who is president Of the
Irish Industries Association, and
should receive from the people Of this
country, especially those who are Of
Irish birth CT Irish descent, all the en-
couragement possible. The Countess
has in view a grand exhibit at the
Worlds Fair, Of these industries.
Writing to the Chicago Herald On the
worthy mission of these distinguished
people to this country, Hon. W. j. On
ahan of Chicago, says: political re-
forms and change of parties and gov
eminent may do something to better
the condition Of Ireland's peasantry or
working people, but political reforms
alone will not suffice. To foster home.
industries, to give employment and.
training to willing hands, to make hap
pier and more comfortable the lot and
brighten the prospects Of Ireland's pop
ulation-here is to be found the real
panacea. The project, then, to make
an exhibit of Irish Industries at the
Worlds EXPOSITION IN Chicago will be
warmly received, and cannot fail to
meet with favor on all hands. The dis
tingulshed lady who has already shown
her kindness of heart and generosity OF
character, as we'll as her practical good
sense and Judgment, has everywhere
met with sympathetic response and
testimonials of approval from the
friends OF Ireland in the work she has
undertaken. Indeed, it is Tot too much
to say that the Earl and Countess or
Aberdeen won the hearts OF the lr1sh

seem impossible, but the religious fan
atjcism which animates the Russian
army makes it certain. Russia and the
Greek church believe themselves des-
tined to absorb all Europe. Il Russia
devours Germany she will sweep in over
France, and England can then be the
only rescuer Of France. Practically the
whole English-speaking world must then
array itself against Russia in aid OF civ
ilization. America must aid. At such
q time there can be no "reminiscences Of
the Revolution or the War of 1912. But
the coming war may go some farther.
Russia is circling down and around
nearer and nearer to the English pos
sessions. But the army of the future is
in China Gen. Grant told me many
years ago that the Chinese. properly Or
ganjzed and properly led, would be the
best soldiers On earth. They are cal
lcus to fatigue and pain and can live for
weeks on what they can carry with them.
I believe that when the right time comes
England will face Russia with million
Chinese soldiers led by English officers
In such war, of course, the United
States would have no part. India would
be the bone of contention, and China is
more interested IN upholding England
than Russia in that country. But when
the war takes the other course. and Rus
STA, successful over Germany, attempts
to master all Europe, America must aid
England In preserving English civiliza-
tion." This is certainly not very
promlsipg state of affairs. While we
would have no objections to see England
getting little of her own medicine from
Russia, still we would reg,et to see Rus.
STA walking over Europe as it threatens
to do. Russia's tyranny knows no
bounds. and we're that country success
full in It's efforts to master Europe, civ
ilivation in that country would be
threatened, if not crushed. If Russia
confines her ambition to territory in
India, and scares England into giving
Ireland her just rights, she will have
done much for civilization. Il is we'll
known fact that England never grants
ireland anything only when the former
is threatened by some outside power. II
the granting Of home rule to Ireland de-
ponds on how far Russia will go in this
trouble in India, the sooner the Rus
sian army crosses the Indus the better.
