considered an assured thing before the

was no possible chance for him TO lose.
SO IL is with the Hogg people. I'll tell
you Clark is gaining ground rapidly ev-
cry day. Those OF the betting fraternity
who were laying odds on Hogg arc now
betting on Clark. They readily notice
how the tide Of affairs has changed.
This has been year for breaking rec
ords and Clark will break the record
Of votes that the Hogg people have
mapped out for him by such a large
majority that even Hogg himself will

Talks by Republicans Who Were
Not Satisfied Republicans.
The weekly sessions of the ly ceum at
the Floating Bethel began las night. l
has taken up series of political tcpicsi
for discussion which will doubtless
make history for this benevolent
institution. The topic for general,
discussion last night was 'sWhy Am a
Republican" The talks were limited
to five minutes, and the speakers were
of the proposition. AS matter of
course it was the evening for Republic
ans, but an occasional speaker was dis
posed to challange the advocates of Re-
publicaniSm on the reasons assigned,
but he was good naturedly reminded
that he would have night to make his
speech at a future meeting when the
topic should suit his sentiments. The
discussion aroused enthusiasm that
broke out into frequent applause. The,
exercises Of the evening were inter
SperSed with music, notably piano solo
by Miss Richie.
Christopher Leckie led the discussion.
and assigning his reasons for being a
Republican said that, while he never
took interest in politics during his two
years. residence in the state, yet he is a
Republical because he is not in favor
of free trade, but favors a high TARIFF
because the Republican party put down
the rebellion and freed the slaves; be-
cause it gave the country the honleJ,
stead law that peopled the great North
west. One young man said that he was
not a citizen or the United States and
would not become one because he
would have to serve OH petit juries.
He declared that he is Republican be-
cause he reads Joseph Wheelock's ed
itorials, and THINKS that to read them
will make any man a Republican. THIS
young genius refused to give his naiife
for publication and must go dCWPto
history unwept and unSung.
Rev. Sharp, who presided at the meet
ing, gave as reasons for his faith that
his father was an abolitionist and was
interested in the underground rail-
road'' that had for its object the freeing
of slaves. He also favorS the RepubIi-
can free construction of the constitu-
ton. In his view, Jackson and Jeffer-
son would be Republicans if living
today. lie asserted that the brains of
the country is possessed by Republic
cans. and lie will continue to be Re-
publican as long as there is a solid
South, and will just so long raise the cry
of the "bloody shirt"
George Thompson-not the handsome
editor of the Dispatch-said he is Re
publican because he believed it is the
friend of the working people, but
frankly admitted that he was wrong III
his belief.

iican because he favors "a Ugh tariff on

publican and would not be on the theory
of protection until the party favors pro-
tecting the country from pauper labor,
as we'll as to protect the capitalist. He
did not believe the Republicans are sin
eere in their claiming to protect the
working people.
Rev. Morgan said he had been Re-
publican until recently. and he was
such because he was raised Republi-
can. He would give $40 to the Bethel if
any nan can give reason why he is a
Republican at the present time, leaving
out OF consideration what the
Republican party has accomplished in
the past. He claimed that at present
the Republican party is throttling the
country In the interest of the monopo-
list. The most prosperous time in the
history OF the country was during the
administration of Cleveland. This re-
mark melted great applause. He de-
clared that the Republican party in this
state is not in favor of the Mckinley
tariff today, and is kicking itself be-
cause it became law.
The presiding officer, Rev. Sharp, was
aroused by the interest taken in the
general discussion, and arose to state
that he had StumDed the state i'm the
interests of the Republican party, and
could talk for hours on the tariff.
He proceeded with lengthy tariff
talk. notwithstanding calls of time"
He discussed the tariff on tin and other
campaign topics with considerable earn
estness. At the meeting Of the lyceum
next Tuesday night the topic will be

style. Mrs. Agnes Stalberg-Halps first
song was My Noble Knights" from

lite voice has never been heard
to better advantage. The applause
was prolonged and hearty, and the So
prano returned to sing charming
Swedish folk song, unaccompaned.
: The echo of the room gave the Chopin

Frank Garland threw plenty of fire
and splrit,as well as sympathy, into his
rendition of Stainer's Loyal Death"
The romantic ''Nightingale'S Song"
by Zeller, was sung with expression and
a swing that was very taking. especially
in the introduced waltz tempo. As an
encore Mr.. Van YORK sang ''fhere Was

humorous expression. FhiS little song
ended the programme.

be deplored. There is hardly hamlet
or village in the United States, and es-
pecially in the East. whose citizens can
not point with pride to some statue COM
memOrative of some eventin It's history,
or some noble deed performed by its
settlers. The Junior Pioneers certainly
feel proud that it has been left to them
to take the first steps i'm this
direction-which they hope will
early be followed by many others.
And it is their aim to build living
statue that will last through the ages
and commemorate the history of st.
Paul from the date the first native set
foot on her soil to the time when she
will be the grand metropolis of the
Northwest, and it will then be taken
care of with gentle hands and looked
upon with reverence by those who have
followed the early pioneers in whose
memory 1t was erected.

PRINCIPLE FOR REVENUE.
Why More People Did Not Greet
the Two Noble Women.
To the Editor of the Globe

To the Editor of the Globe
1t seems 10 the writer that something
should be said for the benefit of Lady
Somerset and her delightful companion.
Miss Willard. to defend the fair fame of
st. Paul from the reflection cast upon
us by the moderate audience which
greeted them at the Peoples church
Saturday evening. The writer is sure
that the people of our goodly city are
not cold or indifferent TO the noble and
successful work represented by these
noble ladies, and also that large numbers
of people would have thronged and filed
the auditorium Saturday night had it
not been for - good reasons. When
will managers of so goodly cause learn
to leave stupid cupidity in the back
ground and learn that in public esteem
success, financial and otherwise, de-
ponds on better policy? Five of the
writer's friends ordered tickets for this
most worthy event. But when the bill
came for S12.50 the tickets were politely
but perempt0rily returned. When the
audience was seated and waiting, there
was that yawning chasm of $3.50 seats
which no eloquence could bridge. Then
followed the manifest injustice to hold
erS Of high-priced coupons, Of putting
us 50-cent people INTO the best seats of
the house. The house should have been
filled. A large revenue should have
been realized, and something approach
ing modesty in demands by the mana
gers would have accomplished all.
