IN THE FIGHTING FIFTH.
Many Ward Kicks for the Meeting
Tonight

The regular monthly meeting of the
Fifth Ward Citizens union will take
place this evening at 80 at c. S. P. S.
hall, corner West Seventh and Western.
Reports are expected from two impor-
tant committees, and there may possibly
be report on the question of market
for the ward. Another matter for con-
Slderation will be the condition of the
Western avenue station of the Milwau-
kee d St. Paul road. 1t is impossible to
either enter or leave it with any degree
of safety, especially in the winter, when
the approaches are covered with ice and
snow. There has been considerable
complaint about this and the
union will undoubtedly take steps
to have it remedied. 1t is
anticipated that the joint committees on
the vacation of certain streets in order
to allow the Milwaukee road to use
thesa for the purpose of building repair
and machine shops, and also new
roundhouse, will report, as it is under
stood they have had an interview with
John a. Chandler, of the above-men-
toned road, and they will present his
ideas to the association. Some of the
members are also discussing the idea of
stirring up the Sioux City road Oh the
question of why they were granted forty
acres by the city, and that they have at
present about practically abandoned
work at the shops. Many new kicks
will also come up. and large attend
ance is expected.

MACHINERY FOR PRISONS.

A Minnesota Delegation Visiting
Binding Irvine Manufacturers.
A committee consisting of State SEN
ator j. S. O'Brien. of Minnesota, and
Managers Edwin Dunn and F. w. Tenn
pie, of the Minnesota state prison at
Saltwater, have been in this city for
several days negotiating for the pur-
chase of rwine-making machinery for
use by the convicts of that state, says
the New York Times. Senator O'Brien
said last night:
Several years ago the legislature
passed a law abolishing convict labor.
Two years ago that law was repealed
and another passed which provided that
only half of the conyicts should be let
out for contract labor. The farmers of
the state think the other half should be
employed in making binding Irvine for
their benefit. They are so employed at
the present time, but we want better
machinery than we have at present, and
we are here to get it if we CAM
The committee has been trying to get
an outfit of John Goods machinery, but
Mr.. Good is prevented by the negotia-
tions pending between him and the Ma
tional Cordage company from making
any sales of machinery at the present
time. The committee has therefore been
forced to open negotiations with the
National Cordage company, and it ex-
poets an answer today or tomorrow.

on the streets. Upon Christmas night
he became decidedly worse, and since
then has never left his bed. He grew
worse daily. and last night it became
apparent that his end was at hand. At
the hour named he passed quietly away,
his bedside surrounded by his family
and few intimate friends.
BaZ Armstrong has spent his life in
st. Paul, and was probably as widely
known as any man within the limits of
the city. His active participation in
politics, his genial personality and his
several official positions, have combined
to give him wide acquaintance. and to
make of every acquaintance personal
who was brother of WV. Armstrong.
for many years editor and proprietor of
the Cleveland Plain Dealer and member
for Ohio of the National Democratic
committee-waS an old citizen of st.
Paul, and for twelve years clerk of the
district court. For several years Baz
was his deputy and right hand man.
Upon the election of G. d. O'Brien as
mayor, Baz became his secretary, and
subsequently became chief deputy for
Clerk r. T. OConnor, which position
he held up to his death. Some years
ago BaZ went back to Cleveland and be-
CAME business manager TOT Ine ram
Dealer, but returned to St.Paul and the
more active life of the Northwest. He
had married meanwhile. and was father
of two children, both girls.
For the past ten years he has taken
very prominent part in local politics, in
which he was a successful factor. He
was tireless and aggressive hustler
and inherited the peculiar faculty
which makes success in politics. He
was III the fortieth year of his age and
still a young man-really boyish in ap-
pearance-young enough to attract the
young aud yet man in experience and
knowledge. Columns might be flied
with interesting anecdotes of his career,
and not politician of st. Paul but
could tell them by the score. Without
having held any important Office, he has
been identified with many, and easily
took rank as prominent young man of
st. Paul. His death Will be sincerely
mourned wherever known.

THOSE ELEVATOR CHARGES.
Will the Wheat Growers Pursue
the investigations?


the Investigations?
The last legislature appropriated S1O,-
900 to defray the expenses of a special
committee of both houses, appointed TO
investigate charges made by the wheat
growers association against the ele-
vatOrs of the cities of Duluth and Su-
periOr. A session of months duration
was held in the simmer and reamS of
testimony taken, when an adjournment
was had to Jan. 4, 1892. The principal
evidence adduced was that several hun
dred thousand bushels of wheat had
been surreptitiously shipped from Du-
lUth elevators, the explanation being
that it was badly bin-burned. The
committee separated with a divided
sentiment. The time for the reassem-
bling has arrived, but where is the COM
mittee? Upto late last evening there was
no trace of it. Chairman GeiSsel has not
been heard Of, and the astute counte-
nance of j. Day Smith, of Hennepin,
sci for the wheat growers association,
was seen yesterday, and asked what he
knew of meeting. His reply was very
short and concise. Since the adjourn
ment of the committee he had seen not
one member of the association, and did
not know what the intention was. or
whether the investigation was to be
pursued further. G.. A. Severance, at
tOrney for the elevator men, was equally
in the dark. He had heard nothing of
tho adjourned meeting, and could not
tell whether or when one would be
called. Doubtless, however, some of
the former members of the committee
will turn up within the next two days.
