the public except while they are being

these things, when SO constructed, are
allowable.
But any private structure such as a
porch in the street, or steps leading out
into the street, either downward or up
ward, is an obstruction to the use oil the
street by the public, without any bene-
fit to the public, and is a nuisance
which it ia the duty OF the city in its
capacity as trustee and guardian OF the
interests OF the public to abate; a
nuisance to which the city cannot, in
violation of its trust, give valid
sanction, either by ordinance or other
wise.
1t is to DO regretted that in many in
stances the city authorities have been
remiss in this respect, and that the
citizens have not. upon the failure OF
the city to do its duty, taken the matter
to the courts, for there have for long
years been private distractions per-
mitted to exist on the streets in various
parts OF the city, to the detriment OF
the public and damage to all property
in the vicinity OF the nuisances.

MIR. PILhsBURY LAUGHS.

The pamphlet "a Gigantic Conspir
acy," summary of which was pub
lished in yesterday mornings GLOBE, is
full of serious charges against the ele
vator companies. the mill, owners and
the railroads of Minnesota.
1t accuses them of being engaged in a
wicked plot to rob the farmers of this
state by abhorrent and outrageous
methods. 1t accuses them of using
false weights and measures. 1t accuses
them OF combining to depress prices
and destroy competition until the entire
market is under their absolute control.
1t accuses them of giving perjured teSti-
mony as to their profits before the SEN
ate investigating committee. 1t accuses
them of wagng an unholy war against
the prosperity and development of this
entire commonwealth, of holding our
agricultural population in Serfdom, and
of trampling the law and our most
sacred rights under foot for the salts
faction Of their own greed.
Backed by documents and figures,
this makes formidable Indictment,
sufficient. if true, to crush the guilty;
indignation of the innocent. CHARLES
A. PILLSBURY, of Minneapolis, speaks
for the culpritS. and what has he to say?
Is lie angry? Is he reused? Not at all.
There are two accounts of how he re-
ceived the disclosures. One of them
reports that ''for once he was averse to
talking. he did not think the matter
was worthy much attention." The
other one reports that she laughed
heartily and tossed the manuscript on
one side" Besides this, he called it
''old stuff" and said that sit presented
nothing original"
Here is Mr.. PILISBURY from two
standpoints. The whole thing bores
him or eXeites his hearty laughter. That
is right. If there is to be any yawning
or laughter, Mr.. PlLLsBURY is the one
to do it. The farmers of Minnesota
cannot. They have not been getting
any 40 per cent out Of any ones else
labor.

Thompson money enough to fix the
marriage. After getting the money,
Thompson persuaded Miss Prescott to
go to small tow in the Isle of Man to
meet Roberts. No Roberts was there and
Miss Prescott returned to Manchester.
Thompson told her that Roberts had
been unavoidably detained in London,
and she must go there at once TO meet
him. AS there was cholera in the city.
he SAID, she must take medicine as soon
as she got there. He gave her bottle
containing poisonous liquid, mostly
chloroform, which he told her she must
drink Immediately upon her arrival.
Miss Prescott came to London. drank
the mixture at the railway station and
all but died. She told her story at the
police station after she had recovered
sufficiently, and, upon this information
being telegraphed to Manchester,
Thompson was arrested. Yesterday he
was arraigned for fraud and attempted
murder and was remanded. Manches-
ter detectives believe that he is respon-
sible for the disappearance of several
other women from the city within the
last two years.

REPUBLICAN, METHODS.

There Is Il curious parallelism between
the political methods of the Republican
party in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
JOHN G. SPooNER Is the candidate for
the governorShIp in Wisconsin. He has
been a railroad lawyer all his life, and
is relied on to command the support of
the rich corporation interests. The Re-
publican candidate for the Wisconsin
lieutenant governship is a man named
Koch. He is a Lutheran German, NOM
mated because he is a Lutheran Ger
man, in the hope that the ignorant
portion of the foreign-born population
which knows nothing aud cares moth
ing for American institutions will vote
for HIM. In Minnesota the thing has
been done little differently. A Scan
dinavian railroad attorney has been put
at the head of the ticket. NELSON
plays double role, but the purpose is

Republican of Duluth, there are no
leading Republicans anywhere. 1t is
true that that gentleman was a lifelong
Democrat until four years ago. when he
renounced all allegiance to the Damo-
cratic party. Since 1888 Judge Ham,
mons has been consistent. earnest Re-
publican. VINO has done yeoman service
for his party through the public press
and on the stump. There was no more
effective advocate of the principles of
the Republican party and protective
tariff i'll the field four years ago than
he. Two years ago in st. Louis county,
when some of the alleged leading Re-
publicans of Duluth refused to take the
stump for the party, Judge uammOnS
was at the forefront of the battle under
the auspices and direction OF the Re-
publican committee Last June Judge
Hammons was elected a delegate to
the Sixth district Republican congress
slonal convention as Republican, and
not as Democrat, any statement to
the contrary being absolutely without
foundation. The reflections contained

mons Republicanism are certainly not
III line with the facts in the case, and
seem to be inspired by malice.
The policy of denouncjng Capt. Haw-

THE LIGHT OF THE FUTURE.

The Phosphorescent Glow to Re-
place the Incandesccnt Lamp.
st. Louis Republic.
1t seems hard to believe that in very
few years the incandeScent lamp, which
we now regard as, in many respects, an
almost perfect light, will be regarded as
a crude makeShift, which mankind
availed itself OF while science stood on
the threshold OF the discovery of the
perfect luminant. Mr.. Tesla has shown
i'll his experiments an ideal form of
electric lighting which would transcend
in luxury and convenience, our present
system OF electric lighting by incandes-
cent lamps, as far as the latter trans
cends the old lamps and tallow dips
used by our near ancestors.
Every drawing room would become an
electric field in L continual state of rap
idly alternating stress, i'll which the oc-
cupantS would live, experiencing no I'M
pleasant effect whatever, while vacuous
tubes or phosphorescent globes and
tubes. without care or attention, would
shed soft, diffuse light, of color and in
tensity arranged 10 suit the most luXur-
Gus fancy.
Mr.. Tesla's watchword is that the
phosphorescent glow is the light of the
future; he hints at. artificial aurora
spreading from the SUBMITS of towers
of hitherto uudreamt-of height, and he
has. at all events, got as far as pIoduc-
ing in the air at atmospheric pressure a
glowing plane bounded by two rings
about foot and thirty inches in diam
eter, respectively. Whether all his
visions will be realized remains to be
proved; there is no doubt that they are

You cannot always tell by a. mans
record in civil life whether or not he
will make good soldier,'' said Col.
Harry E. Goodenough at the Laclede.
In my regiment during the Civil
war were several of my old schoolmates,
and | watched their conduct in the sew
eral trying positions in which they
were placed with considerable interest.
There was one young fellow who
always showed the white feather in the
little scrimmageS at school. A boy half
his size could bluff him. and he seemed
to have moral dread of getting hurt.
We nicknamed him Sissy vet that
same fellow WAS always the first and
foremost in charge, was brave even to
reckleSsneSS, and earned a lieutenant'S
commission fer gailantry i'll the first
battle in which he participated. During
the first days fighting at Shiloh his left
arm was shattered by grapeshot. He
daged, came back and stayed at the
front.
"a mother schoolmate, who was popu-
larly supposed 10 be the embodiment of
physical courage, always required
sergeaDPs bayonet behind HIM 10 hold
him in the ranks. lie would funk at
the first fire. The whistle or the bullet
reduced him 10 a state of terror that was
pitiable. During skifmish | once
found him crouching behind log. his
teeth chattering as with the ague. L
ordered him to the front, and he got on
his knees and begged me not to send
him there TO be murdered. Yet he had
thrashed me a dozen times when we
were boys. He would have fought Hee-
nan with bare knuckles and gloried in
it, even if he knew he would be
whipped.
''Ihe first came out of the war one
armed major with q record for heroic
courage; the latter was drummed out
of the army for arrant cowardice
Yet both were brave men, aud both
were towards i'll way. 1t requires a
different kind of courage to face grape
and canister from that required to
stand up in prize ring and fight to
finish. Some men may have both, but /
think the combination a rare one. |

He IS THE RIGHT MAN.

Strong Endorsement Of the Demo-

urer.
Hon. Joseph Leicht, of Winona, the
next treasurer of this state. dropped
into the lively Democratic city of Red
Lake Falls the other day, and shook
hands with his numerous friends in
that portion of Polk county. The Ga
zette of that city paid him the following
compliment:
Joseph Leicht, the brilliant editor of
Die WeStliche HeroId, of Winona, was
i'll the city yesterday, interviewing his
many friends. Mr.. Lecht is the Demo-
cratic nominee for state treasurer-and
we will say sight here that his election
would be godsend to this state. He is,
personally, the peoples candidate for
the honorable position. We may have
occasion to speak more lengthily of MIR.
Leicht before the campaign closes, but
can assure the voters that they will con-
suit their own interests by supporting
the common peoples candidate for
state treasurer"
