A NUMBER of heavy weight" petit
lions are being circulated in the inter
est of W. W. Tatro, the agent Of the
Society for Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, asking for his appointment
as cog catcher. These petitions will be
presented to Mayor Winston in few
DAYS. The reason for such an unex-
pected departure is based on tie bslief
that this lucrative Office should be I'M
der the prevention of cruelty society.
It is expressly stipulated that the fees
Of the office are TO be turned over to the
society and not to the agent as former
ly. In addition to this the society pro-
poses better and more humane way
of taking up and dis posing of the un-
claimed dogs than the ordinary dog
catcher uses. The MAYOR will consider
the matter thoroughly before doing
ANYTHING.

THE council had another turn at the
curb and gutter question last week.
Several bids were received. among
them being one from the Parkhurst
Combine. OF course the representa-
tives OF this company were sure Of get
ting the contract when they saw that
they were the lowest bidders, but what
was their surprise when they saw the
committee determined On giving the
contract to Ring & TObin. Alderman
Loye sent III minority report favoring
letting the Parkhurst company have
the contract, but there were too many
anti Parknurst men in the council. so
Ring & Tobin got the order. Park
hurst combine" is in very bad odor in
Minneapolis just now, and we do not
believe that they can convert enough
aldermen OF the present council to their
side to be OF any material use to them.
and of course the mayor may upset all
calculations BY vet0ing the resolution,
unless no provision is made in the char
ter about awarding contracts to the
lowest bidder. We do not think there
10, otherw wise Goodnow & Co., would
not have carried off the coal contract
from John Norton some TINA ago, as
the latter was several cents ton below
Goodnow. AS this curb and gutter
contract is exciting public attention,
wa will watch the outcome with much
amusement.

that otherwise would be IN circulation.
Who Is responsible for this condition OF
affair we cannot say. The average en-
plover reasons chat he is able to regulate
his own affairs, and stubbornly refuses
TO talk business with his men. There
are two sides to all things, and the en-
ployer should not forget that the en-
pIoye has got some rights too. When
ever the employer refuses to talk with
his men about wages, etc, that the lat
ter think they are entitled to, he sets
himself up as knowing more than bis
men do. We do not pretend to think
that the employer is the only one to
blame for these strikes. One side or the
other is to blame, and sometimes both,
but the employer should never refuse to
talk settlement with his men. Arbitra-
tlon is the great healer OF labor troubles.
and If our moneyed men used little
more of that medicine they would have
less strikes in their camp. The employe
is, az q rule, always willing to arbitrate.
He believes he has rights, and he stands
by that belief. The employer on the
other hand thinks he knows it all, and is
not too modest to Let his men know his
convictions, and thus trouble begins.
If both would come together, compare
rates, and if they cannot agree let them
refer their respective claims to COM
mittee, both agreeing to abide by the
committees decision. If this course
were pursued we would have fewer
strikes and better times.

SATURDAY, APRIL %, 1891.
GLADSTONE INJURED.

Mr.. Gladstone met with quite ser-
GUS accident during fhe week which may
necessitate his confinement to the house
for some time. The Grand Old Man
was walking along tue street when he
stumbled and fell, inhieting an ugly
wound on lis forehead. and blaokenlng
both eyes. For several minutes after ne
was picked up he was UNCONSCIOUS, ana
for a time fears were entertained tnat MS
injuries would prove fatal. But he soon
rallied and was afterward able to Walk
home This was g. rather unfortunate
accident, as it will keep Mr.. Gladstone
at home just at time when his valuable
services are most needed in parliament.
He is opposed 10 the Balfour Irish land
bill. and made several attacks Oh 1t
which threatened to kill it. Now that
he is confined to his home Balfour Will
lose no time in having the committee, IN
whose hands it is, report back thus hur"
ryiug it through the lower house in Mr..
Gladstone's absence. Apart from this it
ia very unfortunate that the ex-premler
shoula meet with 80 bad an accident at
his time of life. Such accidents are
likely to leave traces of themselves,
which often prove fatal. We sincerely
hope that the accounts received OF thus
accident were o7erdrawn, and that Mr..
Gladstone will soon take his seat IN the
house again. His presence is required
there now. and il no fails TO show up be-
tore June, Balfour will have done much
mischief,

WHY so MANY STRIKES.

It is very unfortunate for the country
at large that SO many misunderstanding
between employers and employees should
come up at this particular time After
hard and IN many ways unsatisfactory
winter, it IS unfortunate that spring
work cannot be resumed as il years past.
Among the members Of almost all trades
there seems to be . dissatisfaction Of
some sort, and as might be expected, It
hangs on the question Of ompensatt1i TIC !
In Minneapolis the plasterers, cornice
makers and members Of several other
trades are on 4 strike This means at It
course shat much work remains undo,ne,,i
and q rood deal Of tmoney remains. idle

Instead Of coming up and meeting the
electric lines by reducing the rates. the
railroad companies withdraw very un-
gracefully, If they would reduce their
fares one half they could still make
money, and their short line trains
would be carving the same number OF
passengers they carried before the cleo
trio line was built. The taking away
of those ten trains shows that railroad
companies have not the sand to stand
up and make a fight with an evenly
matched adversary.

FLATrERING OUTLOOK.

The Business Mems Union is meeting
with great success III raising that
$1,000, 900. Very little is being said
about the matter outside those who are
Immediately interested and at work in
getting subscriptions. Among these
could be mentioned the names Of almost
all our leading citizens, There will not
be much difficulty, from present indlca'
lions, in getting this sum pledged. but
the Union does not intend to limit them
selves to this sum if more can be had.
That is right; we cannot have to much
money for such purposes. Minneap-
oils has come to that point where some
thing i'll addition to the mills at the Falls
is necessary to keep her in her onward
march. Every citizen, who has the wei"
fare of Minneapolis at heart, should not
hesitate to put his name On the list when
it is presented him no matter If 1t were
only for few dollars. Every dollar
will count, and every man should con-
s1dsr himself in duty bound to swell the
list. Other cities of the country are
pushing their manufacturing concerns to
the front in order to compete with each
other, and now that the business men OF
Minneapolis have started the ball a roll
ing there should be no letting up. Ours
is necessarily manufacturing city, and
if we do nos do our duty towards bring
ing manufacturing plants here, we can
Hot expect our CITY to prosper as in the
past. We hope to hear of all taking
some interest in this good work, and if
they do there can be no fears for the
result

WE were very SORRY to learn of the
terrible calamity that befell the Rev
and Mrs. VIM. Wilkinson last week, in
the loss of his two daughters. Two
bright and charming young ladies were
taken away in the prime Of life What
made the case still sadder, was the fact
that Mrs. Wilkinson was, herself, sick
at the time and could not attend the
funeral. Mr.. Wilkinson was leglsla-
tive chaplain during the late session.
and made many friends. The IRISH
STANDARD sympathises with them in
their sad bereavement.

Baron, the handsome imported spaniel,
which was presented to Mrs. Cleveland
while she was mistress of the White
House, has taken FIRST prise in the class
for spanlels of all breeds over Is pounds
at the Cleveland bench show. and was
also declared to be the best dog ex-
hibited at the show and was given a
special award on chat account. That
same spaniel NAV prove to be a good
mascot for Grover in his race for the

HON, G.. M. LORING went to CallfOr-
MIA few weeks ago for the benefit OF
his health. We are very sorry th learn
that he is not improving as fast as he
expected. Mr.. Loring is one OF the
most public spirited men in Minneapo-
lis and has done more to make our park
system what it is, than any half dozen
men. He is the father of it. and we
will be- pleased to note any change for
the better, In his condition.

IN an interview with State Treasurer
Stevens OF Missouri, few DAYS ago,
ex-Preslde4t Cleveland made the fol-
lowing pointed remarks ON the silver
question: The amount of the present
per capita shauld be increased. but
change should be made gradually.
When the law was passed providing
for the coinage for So 600 GOO per month
I feared the result, for l. thought it
would prove an inquiry to the business
interests of the country for the time at
least. However. the law proved ben
eft. for, contrary to my opinion, the
country was ready for the change.
When the present law. providing for
81, 500, 600 per month was passed,
thought the measure too radical, and 1T
might have the effect of driving gold
out Of the country, but in this [ was
mistaken, and both those opposed as
we'll as those in favor of free coinage

by it. With the rapid strides the coun-
try is making 1t is impossible to saw
what financial measure we may be
ready for in 1894 In forming nv views
upon the subject l did not alone con-
slider the interests of any one section of
this country. [ have been unable to
see how free coinage could fail to be an
injury to every section of this country,
believing that it would drive gold out
of circulation. AS we are in great
measure dependent upon European
markets for our products. we are obliged
to take them into consideration. When
| have suggested monetary confer
ence of the representatives of other
governments with our own. which
could agree upon a new standard of
value. my suggestions have been scoffed
at by Europeans. am delighted that
the people are now engaged in such. a.
thoughtful consideration of this Ques
ition. snd that BY. 1892 they will have
decided whether or not we are ready to
handle all the silver Of the world .sa

THERE seems to be some difference Of
opinion in relation to the passage or
n0n-passage by the House on Saturday
last Of S. F. No. 49, relating to eleva-
tors and warehouses. The corr ected
House journal. approved Monday,
April 20, a copy Of which we have in our
possession. shows that the bill was lost
by a vote Of 81 TO 81, lacking one vote of
the necessary majority.

A. LONDON cablegram says that all
signs indicate that the emigration from
Ireland to America will be at least as
large this year as last. The immigrants
are young men and women. the flower
of agricultural districts, there being
very few tradesmen or mechanics.
Fully two-thirds have their passage
prepaid from America. If Ireland had
the same laws that England has, there
would not be so MANY of her people
forced to leave home.

week from Col. John II. West. stating
he and party had arrived at Gibraltar

IT is reported that Alderman Rand
Will soon tender his resignation as rep
resentative Of the Sixth ward. Var
ious reasons are assigned for this I'm
expected step. Some say 1T is because
Mayor Winston refused to remove Capt
Ness Of the Third police precinct,
while Rand's personal friends, as well
as he. say it is because it takes up too
much of his time.
