NorwIrnsrANpINo the GREAT and

NOTWITHSTANDING the great and
abundant harvests all over the country,
the Mckinley bill continues Its work
OF business disaster. 1t Is fearful to
contemplate 1t in this land of abund-
ance. The business failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
seven days number 247. For the cor.
responding week Of last year the fig
urss were 189. And yet the author of
this ruin has the monumental gall TO
perambulate Ohio, and to ask Christian
women TO shout for him and humane
men to vote for him, In order to fasten
the ruin he has wrought permanently
upon this country.

WHAT does it benefit the neonle q,

WHAT does it benefit the people of
the United States to buy their sugar a
trihe cheaper and then turn around and
pay the sugar producers bounty of
$14,000,000 year direct out Of the
treasury? In addition TO this must be
paid big salaries to hundreds of sugar
Inspectors and assistants and clerks to
carry out the bounty business. This
increases the salary list of tho govern
ment, and makes places for the gang OF
hired hustlers and boodlers, who have
done 30 much to degrade and debauch
the poor voters of this country.

The fight is now raging between the
Foraker and Sherman factions in Cuya-

Harrison is not in 1t. If Harrison's

NO REMEDY IN LAW.
Quack Medical Practitioners or
Heaters Cannot Be Barred.

The death of c. A. Baker Sunday last
from diphtheria, as the case was dag
nozed by regular physician, when he
iSt for Quinsy, has aroused desire in
many minds to see something done by
way of legislation to prevent the some
times fatal results of fooling with these
nonsensical methods of treating the
sick. A doctor, or an alleged doctor,
can be barred from practicing medicine
in the regular way unless he has suffj-
cient knowledge of the science to pass
certain examination. But the quack
can set himself up as a"Christian sci
enlist" or magnetic healer" or a
"speclalist." and kill as many people as
he or she desires by preventing rational
treatment. The law can't touch them.
Some persons have supposed that this
sort of thing might be prevented.
Health Commissioner Kelley was asked
about it Yesterday afternoon, and said {:
Nothing can be done with such cases
The law has decreed that a mans house
| is his castle. If he doesn't choose to
receive medical assistance when ill, he
can't be compelled to receive it. if he
desires to rely upon Quack noStrums, or
upon prayer, that is his business. He
may die, but that is his privilege. Leg
islation is powerless to prevent any
thing of the sort. If these irregular
practitioners were to undertake to OPP
crate on fractures, the law might be
able to reach them. But it can't go out
side OF that. Then, there is this diff
Guilty of securing legislation of this sort.
1t might be open to the criticism of
being in the interest of certain school,
The cry might be raised that one set of
men were seeking to benefit themselves
through the law. 1t Is difficult ques-
ton to handle.''
Coroner Byrnes is determined to do
what he can in this line. He says that
he will hold al inquest over the first
person dying from Christian science
treatment OF from lack of treatment.
He said yesterday:
IF had been informed of the facts
in the case of c. A. Baker, the manager
for the Moline, Milburn & Stoddard
company, should have ordered the in
quest and made an attempt to fasten
the responsibility somewhere. This is
a rule | intend to adhere to strictly, and
| hope the citizens will give me their
aid"

POLICEMEN HAPPY.
And Their Joy Communicated to
All Their Friends.

If Lebrettest Gilbert's sergeant is to
be believed. "a policeman's life is not
a happy one" But there are excep-
tons. When the policemen of Mime
apolis start out to have a good time
they not only have it but they make
the occasion enjoyable to all their
friends who can be induced to partici-
pate. Such they did last night at the
West hotel. About every officers not
on actual duty was there, and their
friends to the number of nearly a
hundred couples attended. Nor did
they regret it.. 1t was one of the most
enjoyable affairs ever given at the
West. Brass buttoned uniforms fitted
about the halls and through the rooms,
black coats and ball dresses. The
wearers of the buttons seemed to be on
duty, and they were. They took it as
their duty to make it pleasant for every
one in attendance upon the ball, and
succeeded admirably in doing their
duty. Mayor Winston and wife came,
Supt. Henderson did likewise, the heads
of nearly all the city departments were
not far away. and the aldermen were
there to man. not to speak of the
dozens of civilians.
The main dining hal! at the West was
the ball room, and its spacious floors
were crowded every moment after Stat
uesque Lieut.. Fred Coffin and his wife
literally opened the ball by leading the
grand march. Capt. Jacob Helm, as the
senior captain of the department, took
it upon himself to be in all places at one
time, and while Capt. Martin Buerfen-
ming ably seconded his every effort,
Capt. Ness, Lieut.. Bean and everybody
else did their best, and that was good
deal toward oiling the wheels OF
the event. The detectives. who have
made so many men walk the plank, "
gave most of their time to assisting
everybody in walking through the
stately measures of the dance, all except
Inspector James Howard, who stood
outside and smiled welcome to every
body And no one who once came with
in the influence of that smile departed
until the festivities were over.
SO they danced the happy hours away
until supper was served in the ladies
ordinary. More dancing followed, and
along towards2 o'clock in the morning
the patrol wagonS-ca carriages rather
were called and the policemen'S ball
was over Not only was a tidy little
sum realized for the relief fund, but the
guardians of the law demonstrated that
they never do anything by halves.

The trades and labor assembly met at
the Labor Temple last evening. Dele
gates were admitted from the bakers,
typographical, tailors', carpenters and
North Star assembly. A committee APP
pointed to consult with Supt. Bradley
in regard to teaching practical drawing
reported that their suggestions had
been accepted, and a class of twenty
cornice workers started in at the Wash
ington High school this week.
A delegate reported that certain
firm of bakers in this city are bringing
journeymen here under promise of $13
a week as wages. but refuse to pay that
when the pay roll is made out. No
formal action was taken in the matter
until it could be formally investigated.
Oliver Erickson was elected president,
vice j. 2. McGaughey, resigned.
The following resolutions were
adopted, and copy of those relating to
labor legislation will be forwarded to
the chairman of the labor committee IN
the house:
Resolved That this trade and labor as
sembly heartily endorses the bill now before
the state legislature. which proposes the III
auguration of three.eent fare for passen-
gers on the street railways of this city.
Whereas, Certain men and newspapers in
this state are urging the present legislature
to pass bill appropriating the states money
to establish bureau of immigration; and.
Whereas, There are vast number of men
and women unable to secure opportunities
for employment, De it. therefore,
Resolved, That this trades assembly en-
phatcally protests against the establishment
of bureau of immigration, because in our
judgment such a step would be injurious to
Industrial classes, and would be All example
of class legislation in favor of the class
known as money lenders and spectators.
Whereas, 1t is charged that the Minneapo
lis Street Railway company has In the past
and is at present issuing bonds and stock
far in excess of the actual value of the
line;
Whereas, Such action is made criminal
offense by chapter II of the General Laws of
Minnesota,
Resolved, That the trades assembly hereby
requests the county attorney of Hennepin
county and attorney general of the state to
proceed to investigate this matter at once.
and we would also call the attention Of the
railroad commissioners to the same.

LOVE AT HIGH PRESSURE.
Annie Quilted Her Spouse to
Dwell With Another.

G. W. Henian has filed an action for
divorce in the district court against his
wife, Annie. The plaintiff is a bar
tender of no mean ability, and when he
brought his wife to his house the future
looked bright and rosy for him; but
alas for the rarity, etc. Annie, after a
time, became charmed with the graces
of one who could pour 'blue blazes"
from higher altitude than her own
spouse, and who could put flavor fit
for the gods into a ''bleu Porange."
She tussled with her conscience for
some time, but finally, under high
pressure, she grouped together such of
the family chattels into bundle as she
could make away with, and, putting her
goloshes into shawl strap, she sneaked
in the quiet of the night out into the
wide, wide world, where her lover
ava ted her at rendezvous. While
her own hubby was dispensing wet
goods to thirsty throng, team was
bearing the guilty couple far, far away
to the Northland, and soon after the
skies above West Superior smiled down
upon them as they vowed eternal fidel-
ity to each other. They are still VOW
ing, while the other one mixes the in
toxicating whisky punch in the Wiscon-
SIN metropolis, and Henian dwells in.

MORE ABOUT BYAM.
Part of His Record in Minneap
oils as Financier.

Part of His Record in Minneap-
oils as Financier.
Yesterday mornings GLOBE con-
tanned brief account of some of the
recent woes of C. Perry Byam, the
youngest soldier of the war;" who
used to live in Minneapolis, and now
lives in Chicago Jail, because certain
real estate transactions of his could
not be surveyed according to the
linear measure. Byam, in this
case, lays all the blame for his
misfortune upon woman-a Mrs.
Reade-who was also Minneapolitan
once upon time. According to Min
neapois man who once lived next door
to Byam. that individual has been a
marked man for years-marked by the
cruel, relentless pursuit of pitiless fate
and his own prediction for never get
ting the worst of it. Byam's residence
in Minneapolis is still remembered
by several people, and the remem-
Real estate has always possessed a
strange fascination for Byam. When
he lived here he sold some lots, or
traded them rather, so the story goes,
for a lot Of carriages. After events
proved that he made driving bargain.
He sold most of the carriages and put
the money in his purse before it was
discovered that the lots sold by him
were worth little more than are straw
hat OF cigarette in Dakota blizzard.
Shortly after that he went to st. Paul,
where he is said to have been success
full animal trainer. He operated prin-
ciDally upon tigers" tended them with
his own hand and made them his serv-
ants. Wherever he has lived he seems
to have left behind him trail of sun
dered friendships. He always had con-
fidence in himself and plenty of other
people had confidence in him-for a
while.
But Byam has had other troubles than
those of his own seeking. He never in
vaded anything but the pockets of other
people. Once a bad man entered his
home. Byam lived in Fort Dodge, To-,
at that time. some four or five years ago.
He had a daughter. She fell a victim to
the wiles of handsome but unscrupu
lous man. The affair was the sensation
of the year in Fort Dodge and nearly
ended in murder.
And enough stories to fill volume
could be told by men who knew him in
timately concerning the escapades of
him and his. Byam and the figurative
hot water seem to have always affiliated
strongly.
