FLETCHER, THE STATESMAN.
What His Seven-Session Legisla-
10 tive Record Shows.

What His SeVen-SeSSiOn LegiSla-
70 tive Record Shows.
,. The labor vote of the Fifth congress
si0nal district will doubtless feel some
interest in the history of the candidate
of the Republican party during his
career as lawmaker in seven different
sessions of the legislature of Minnesota.
1t would seem that such an extended
experience would afford ample oppor-
tunity for statesman who had but a
slight sympathy with the laboring
classes to make some small show
of his feeling in that direction
by at least voting for measures intended
/ to be beneficial to them. And while it
is well understood that there is no pre-
tense on the part of MIR. Fletcher and
his friends that he is entitled to any
IavOrS at the hands of the labOring
classes, his whole expectation of sue
cess being based upon the single con-
dition that he is the Republican nomi-
nee. it is but proper that his past career
as Legislator should be ScrutiniZed,
that an estimate may be placed upon
. the probability as to his future course
should he obtain the bent of his ambi-
ton in reaching a seat ID the national
legislature.
Mr.. Fletcher's legislative history re-
veals with much emphasis the circum-
stance that he has no sympathy with
laboring people, anu that his legislative
forte consists in looking we'll after the
interests OF corporations and capital en-
terprjSes. During seven different ses-
sioIs in which he sat as member, and
i'll two of which he presided as speaker.
not one vote was cast by him upon
single measure having for its end the
betterment of the condition of the
labOrlng man. While it cannot
be said that he has recorded
himself against such legislation
by voting in the negative,
it is peculiarly significant that in all
such instances he refrained from voting
at all. Coincdent with this condition it
is discovered that every measure where
railroads and warehouses and corpora
tons we're seeking legislative aid Mr..
Fletcher is recorded Invariably on the
side of such institutions. The only con-
cluSion 20 be drawn from this is that he
is not in sympathy with laboring peo-
pie. 1t does not leave him in the atti-
tude of indifference even. for the con-
unued failure to vote with measures TO
assist them must be accepted as the re-
suit of design. If it was mere negh
gence the same conclusion is reached.
LII view OF the PROBABILITY OF leglSla-
ton at an early day upon questions
which will involve the right of the gov
eminent to interpOse restrictions upon
those institutions which are foStered
by it through tie instrumentalty of
protective laws, it is highly important
to examine into Mr.. Fletcher's history
upon this subject. If he is inclined to
give his aid to corporations and COM
bines. he is hardly the man whom the
laboring classes of this district wish
elected.

UNLUCKY HAFSTAD.
The Fire Department Tillerman

Jacob Hafstad, tillerman of Fire De-

born under an unlucky star. A year ago
yesterday he fell from the burning En-

injuries that for long time his life was
despaired of. he was confined to the
morning the department was called to
put out fire caused by blazing tar
barrel. Hafstad was on Truck No. 3. At
the railroad crossings at Fourth street
and Eleventh avenue south, the gates

OF crystal voted ON dissolution of the

could not be ascertained last night, but
IT IS certain that the voters for dissolu-

Robblnsdale and the rest of the village,
hence the dissolution. The big fight
will come when the village IS reorgan-

collision. All the firemen on the
truck escaped injury, with the excep-
ton OF Hafstad, who was thrown on the
track under the very wheels of the
engine. His left foot was cut off at the
ankle, and when he was taken to the
st. Mary's hospital, where his wound
was dressed, he was unconscious.
1t was reported at the hospital last
night that Hafstad was resting easily,
but the terrible shock to his already de-
bilitated system may terminate fatally.
The fault of the accident was due to
the gateman, Simon O'Toole, who did
not close the gates, believing that the
truck could cross the tracks before the
train reached that point.

POPULAR PLAGIARISM.
An Oncnsc which Is Very Otcn Commit
ted Unconsciously.

Tea tnconscionsly.
A preacher of New York has been ac-
cuscd of plagiarizing from brother in
the pulpit two sentences which he in
troduccd into one of his sermons recent
ly, and considerable fuss is being made
about the affair. This charge of
plagiarism, says the Boston Traveller,
is being made very frequently against
writers OF late. There surely never has
been u time when so many authors have
been accused of stealing from others of
their craft as to-day. We have no rea-
son to believe that they are less honest
than they used to be, and there surely
must be some reason for this curious
state of things. This reason may be
found in the fact that the world is rap
idly growing old; it has, by the way,
been growing old for a good many
years.
II is only within few years since we
discovered that mother earth had, with
feminine unscrupulousncss, deceived us
bascly with regard TO her age. Conse-
qucntly new ideas are scarce; our an
ccstors CLEANED the field of originality,
and left us 4 rich legacy of thought
which we have both consciously and
unconsciously appropriated as our own.
Besides, the human mind rs it advances
by the process of evolution, becoming
more pcnetrative and absorbing, scizcs
upon ideas spontaneously, as it Were,
and not at mental volition of the
thinker, and is frequently dcluded into
thinking that these ideas are self-gen-
Grated
1t is a familiar fact that one may I'M
consciously plagiarize, not only the
thoughts that one hears expressed, but
the very words that give them express
sion. 1t is almost impossible to trace
the subtle workings OF the mind of the
highly developed and sensitive individ-
ual, susceptible to the most delicate i'm
prcssions. There are many minds so
highly cultured and SO susceptible to
such impressions that they are almost
clairvoyant. Indeed. it is not at all i'm
probable that as we advance in civiliza-
ton clairvoyancc will become one of
the higher faculties of the educated
man. In the case of the New York
minister, who has been accused of
plagiarism, it is probable that, though
he may have appropriated the words OF
another, he did so unconsciously, and
ought, therefore, not be condemned or
censured for it.
