To the Editor of the Globe:
As stranger who has lived about
four or five weeks only in st. Paul, |
would wish to ask why this pulpit ora
tory denouncing this city as the vilest
in the West?
During my short stay here / have had
business which kept me out until as
late, and sometimes even later than II
O'Clock; yet during all that time l have
failed to see the rampant vice that is
heralded from the puIpIts.
l have visited beer gardens and con-
cert saloons, and found them conducted
in very orderly manner. l have done
this more out of curiosity than for any
love of such places, but in justice to
them saw nothing that would shock
the modesty of any lady, nor did L see
any drinking to excess.
l have tried to find some of the gam
bling hellS, but cannot do so, as they are
kept very secluded if they do exist.
Now these eXpOunderS of Christianity
must remember that it takes all kinds
and classes of people to make world,
and they must not expect to force every

GETTING ALARMED.

Something like dIsmay appears in the
Republican counteuance in Iowa. be-
fore the campaign is really in augu-
rated. Both parties have erected their
platforms, and put their candidates
upon them. To very recent period the
only question has been as TO the thou
sands the Republicans would deem il
worth while to roll up Tor their ticket.
Now the desertiOns from the party are
so numerous that they fear a Waterloo,
unless a check can be had. COnse-
quently they have opened headquarters,
and are getting into working order
nearly two months earlier than usual.
Prohibition and McKinleyism are the
two heavy weights they are saddled
with. The first has been found costly
failure in that state, and the other is
being understood in its real relations
to the agricultural and labor interests.
The Iowa contest is to be one OF the
liveIiest and most interesting OF this

No BENEFIT TO LAROR.

The tin plate duty may be conceded to
have been honestly designed to estab-
lish the-manufacture in this country.
The purpose was commendable, but the
means pernicious and unjust. The prin-
ciple is believed to be wrong to tax the
people to establish or promote private
business. 1t was insisted by the adyO-
Gates of this duty that it would benefit
American wOrkingmen by atfOrding
them increased employment. Under
this plea committees of Uorkingmen ap-
peared before the congressional archi-
tectS and aided in the work. One of the
most effective workers for the new pro-
lection was Congressman NIEDRING-
HAUs, of st. Louis, the great artificer in
metals and wares. He was to inaugu-
rate the production of tin plate. He
procured man from Wales to dip his
plate in the tin. The impression that
he imported tin plate to be dipped seems
to have been an error. He manufact-
ured it, but reduced the wages of the
men doing the work so as to cause a
strike. The association Of iron workers
that had been active in securing the
duty was appealed to. In its turn it in
terrOgated NIEDRINGHAUS. and would
know if he were keeping his promise
that labor should be benefited. He re-
piled that he could not make the tin
without cutting down wages. and could
pay no more. The Welshman then
struck also, and the rising industry
stopped rising. But the party necessi-
ties required that the home product
should be had. \ great many Ameri-
eau tin clippers and cans viii be needed
in Ohio this year. To meet the ext
gency, then, the st. Louis operator
and politician secured permission
from the commissioner OF lmmigra-
ton to let him engage men in
Wales and import them under con-
tract promising them higher wages, not
intimating that the cost of living would
also be higher. Mr.. OWEN, the commits
siOner, ambled the law out Of the way
like a French dancing master. His
wealthy friend should be accommo-
dated. His ingenuity and compiaisance
took this queer shape: The law plainly
intends that skilled labor may be i'm
ported into the United States to do
work in an industry not yet established,
provided skilled workmen i'll that in
dustry cannot be found among our own
people" The trouble was not in this
case so much the lack Of skilled labor
as cheap labor, the ''pauper labor of the
old world" If it is found to be the fact
by the Welshmen that they can do bet
ter in St. Louis than in Wales, the tin
plate production may 90 on, and an
other Welshnian be secured to do the
dipping. This confirms fully the view
taken by the opponents Of Mckinley
ism. They insisted that the American
wOrkmen would be injured rather
than benefited. Foreign labor would
be imported to work at cheaper
rates and aid to break down the
wage system. af this country. In adj

A Tremendous Yield.

MITCHELL, S. D., July 2S.-The first

years crop took place this week. Bar
lev from the farm of j. 3. Davis went
forty-two bushels per acre, while areport
from belmont states that G. A. Houl-
toms forty-acre piece of barley yielded
fifty-six bushels and peck to an acre.
These yields are being duplicated in
other parts of the county. The stores
in town are alive with displays showing
the heavy growth of grain and corn, the
exhibits OF the latter having stalks
eight feet in height. overloaded with
large, heavy ears, while there are sam
pies of oats with heads over eighteen
inches in length. Oats will yield from
so to 100 bushels TO the acre in many

WHAT 1T IS TO DO.

The inventive genius of the world is
most active at present in devising ap-
plieations for electricity. There are no
visible limitations TO the work being
assigned it. Itmight be presumed that,
if in any direction, the limit would come
in forcing it to feats requiring vast con-
trollable power. AT Trenton, n. j., it
does duty in the iron works, lifting by
crane 10000 pounds, and it is believed
that it has advantages over steam that
will bring itiutO general use for similar
purposes. One OF the most interesting

esses is that invented by Prof. GRAY,

STUNNING HAWKEYE PRAYER

Chicago Herald.
1t is common thing for some preach
erS to make "a few remarks in the form
of prayer" but Rev. Mr.. Stevenson, of
Waterloo, To-, seems to have beaten the
record Sunday, when he assaulted the
throne of grace. He began by thanking
the Lord for the action of Gov. Mer
riam, of Minnesota, in preventing the
Hall-FitzSimmons prize fight, and he
prayed for strength for the governor of
Tennessee Ill adjusting the mining
troubles, after which he said, apologet-
ically: But this may be politics, and,
0 Lord, if Thou dOst not know anything
about politics, and if we are not to pray
for politics, make the politicians pray
themselves" Naturally enough. this
gag brought down the house, and the
applause of the more devout brethren
was long and loud, Probably Mr..
Stevenson will take the stump for the
Republican party this fall.

Great credit is due Manager Scott in pro-
viding tor the amusement-loyiug public such
an exceptional variety of attractions. If the
patronage extended the companies is as large
as the worth of the performance demands

1t required no small amount of hustling on
the part of Mr.. Scott to secure all the con-
tracts he has made, though his work was con-
siderably eased by representing so admirable
and well-equipped house as the Metropolitan
Since its opening the Metropolitan has
played 10 excellent business. If this be con-
unUed, there will be no more need for cit-
Zens to have to be content with plays and
companies of the transforming order. OF
course, all depends upon the public. If the
public viii indorse the efforts of the theat-
rical manager by their patronage the highest
and best class of entertainment will be fur
nished. Manager Scott starts out the first
regular season of the Metropolitan with the
assurance that, on his part, everything has
been done that can be for his patrons. 1t

A KIND OF REFORMER.

The reformer who prides himself on
his consistency and sonorous devotion
TO the quite perpendicular standards
Indignantly Tepudiates ANYTHING that
savors of the half-loaf principle. He
will have complete success or total fall
ure. 1t may be questioned whether
such ever effect much except by embit-
tering the elements asSailed and driving
them to fatal extremes. The historian
will hardly find that the early and fierce
abolitionist faction in the North was
much of factor in the final abolition
of slavery, except as it aggravated the
pro-slavery force to measures so aggres-
sive as to develop an antagOnlstic senti-
ment that proved fatal to it. In some
of the smaller countries in the north
ern part of Europe, the authorities
furnish the liquor sold in the in
terest of sobriety and moderation.
1t has recently come TO light
that a number OF the dispensaries of
intoxicants in England are owned by
clergymen. and the statement hOrrifieS
the TeformerS referred to. But the
cases that the regulation is to promote
morality, and temperance. One case
is mentiOned-thato OF Rev. Mr.. Nor
DAUNT, rector in Warwickshire, who
has the entire control of the liquor trade
in his parish, and has had it fol- fourteen
years. Beer is the only drink supplied
1t is vouched for as the best quality
yet the lessons of moderation have been
so inculcated that the quantities sold
are not large. Most of the profits are de-
voted to public Improvements, such as
sinking wells. Drunkenness has prac-
tically disappeared from the cOmmu-
nifty. A wholesome change has been
effectd: yet it is doubtful if he could
secure the Endorsement of many OF the
prevalent reformers.

HOW IT PROMOTES IT.

1t seems burlesQue for Republi
can to claim for his party that it has
been the promoter of American COM
merce. Yet the Republican candidate
for governor of New York in 1888,
WARNER MILLER. attempts that feat in
one of the New York papers. His eff
fort is in the face of such facts as these,
compiled from statistics: At the Or
ganization of the Republican party
three-fOurths of the foreign commerce
Of the United States was carried in
American vessels. Last year, after the
Republican party had been in control
for thirty years. bat one-eighth of the
foreign commerce was carried in Ameri-
can vessels. In that time the value of
this commerce had Increased two and
half times, and still American vessels
had less than half as much as in 1856.
That is the way the Republican party
has promoted the growth of American
shipping.
