WITHOUT BLAINE.

The Minneapolis convention Will
break the Republican record, running
back nearly two decades, in not having
She name of BLAINE for other use than
to round out SonOrouS periods and IRE
the hearts. The effort in Iowa to cover
certain schemes with the BLAINE cloak
was failure Since GRANT was elected
the second time, every Republican con-
Venti0n has had more or less of Blaine
ism. Col. INGERS0LL'S famous NOM
mating speech was made at Cincinnati in
June, 1876. In that convention BLAINE
had 291 votes OIL the first ballot-379
being required for choice. He gained
slowly to the sixth ballot, reaching 308,
the other vote being divided between
half-dOzen candidates. A combination
was necessary to his defeat, and it was
affected by taking up the negative and
comparatively unknown HAYES, under
the lead of CoNKLING, who had about
100 votes himself. At the next eonven-
tion, in 1880, BLAINE had a trifle smaller
vote on the first ballot. 2S4 to. 29l. The
senatorial syndicate, CoNKLING, LOGAN
and CAMERON, were determined to beat
him, and maSsed their solid column of
BOG behind the potent name of GRANT.
There have been few greater conven-
ton contests than this at Chicago. 1t
lasted ten DAYS, and OH the thirty-siXth
ballot was ended by the nomination of
GARFIELD.
The third struggle came in June, 1884,
and for the first time the persistent man
from Maine won from the inability of
the opposing forces to concentrate
against him. The man who had fought
him so long had begun to weaken.
BLAINE had 334 votes OH the first ballot,
with 407 necessary to a choice. ARTHUR
led the opposition with 27S, EDMUNDs,
LOGAN and SHERMAN having most of
the Others On the fourth ballot BLAINE
had 541 votes and was nominated. In
the election he came near enough to see
into the promised land, but was not
Telentlessly fought him in the party
were probably able to turn votes enough
against him in New York state to COM
pass his defeat.
When the convention met at Chicago
four years ago, it was conceded that
BLAINE could have the nomination on
the first ballot, if not by reclamation.
Although he had taken his name out of
the list, he still had thirty-6ve delegates
who could not give him up, Just as he
will probably have few at Minneapolis.
But his name will not be presented as a
candidate. 1t will be the first Repub-
Iican convention in two decades where
BLAINE will not be strongly felt in the
action had. HARRISON will be nom-
mated without any expression of the
BLAINE wishes.

GERRYMANDER LAID OUT.

Wisconsin's Democratic gerfymander,
in the judgment of the supreme court,
was entirely too Jacksonian.-C Chicago
Tribune.
No crime, except that of high treason,
is more heinous than that which seeks
to deprive legally qualified voters of a
full and free exercise of the right of
suffrage. The gerrymander, wherever
or by whomSoever used, is an infamous
assault upon the liberties of the people,
Chicago Inter Ocean. -
The decision will neceSsitate the call
ing of an extra session of the legislature
to pass a new apportionment law to
govern the next election. Thus greedi-
ness ON the part of political party will
cost the Wisconsin taxpayers thousands
of dollars, and the party responsible for
the law is not nov whit better off,
Chicago Mail.
But putting aside the extraordinary
character of the decision, public Senti-.
ment generally will uphold 1t. The idea
of gerrymandar is repugnant to free
government, and its practice should not
be tolerated. The Democrats in Wis
consin. of course, simply followed the
pernicious example set by the Republic
ans so often.-Chicago Herald.
The supreme court of Wisconsin has
decided unanimously that the gerrv-
Wandering apportionment passed by
the present Democratic legislature for
the purpose of keeping the control of
that body in the hands of that party is
in violation of constitutional requires
ments and is null and void. No one can
say that this decision is partisan one,
for of the five judges three are Demo-
Gratis and two are Republicans.-Chic
go Tribune.
The result of this decision will be to
put an end to this particular phase of
gerrymandering everywhere. When it
is settled that much smaller number
of people cannot be given voting DOW
er in the legislature equal to or exceed
ing that given to much larger number
of people legislatures will be forced to
make fairer appointments than they
do now, and the probabilities of that
party which carried the state as whole
carrying the legislature also will be
much creased.-Chicago Tribune.
The decision is probably correct. But
the conclusion in many minds is ire
sistibIe that if the gerrymander had
been made by Republican instead of a
Democratic legislature nobody would
have thought of attacking its legality,
and even if such an attack had been
made the chances would have been that
the same court which has just held
the Democratic measure invalid would
have sustained an equally par tisan Re
publican .apportionment. and never
doubted that it was doing its whole
duty.-Chicago Herald.

IN HOPE OF REFORM.
Four Thieving Boys Get Light Re-
formatory Sentences.

Four Thieving Boys Get Light Re
formatory Sentences.
Sentence was pronounced yesterday
by Judge Kelly upon the four boys who
pleaded guilty of crimes against the law
a few days ago. Frank Kegel, who
helped to steal cigars and tobacco from
West side store, was fifteen years old
last Christmas. Henry johns. his
attorney, said that he is not bad
boy and Is we'll connected; he had
been miSled and was not to be
blamed SO much as his associate.
He is delicate boy and 1t would be
disastrous to his health TO confine him
long in prison. Assistant County AT
tOrney Butler stated that he is not un
fav0rablY known to the police. and that
the grand jury had talked with him
when visiting the county jail and Won
dered WHY he had gotten into trouble.
The boy said that his mother is dead
and that his father lives at st. Cloud.
Judge Kelly talked kindly TO the boy
and sentenced him to the reform school
for two years. He expressed the hope
that the boy would learn something OF
profit at this school and grow into a
good man.
W. E. Wilson, alias Charles Z. Cor
don, the twenty-one-year-old boy who
/ confessed to forgery, was sentenced to
the retormatory at st. Cloud.
Joseph Smith, who with Kegel stole
cigars and tobacco from store on the
West side. is nineteen years old. He
was born in Milwaukee and came to ST.
Paul four years ago. HIS trade is that
of candy making. He was sentenced to
the reformatOry.
John Moosbrugger, who was lmpli-
Gated with the crowd that did up an i'll
terurban car conductor, is nineteen
years old. His attorney, A. E. Halves,
made statement i'll his behalf which
was intended to save his client from the
penitentiary. County Attorney O'Brien
said that Moosbrugger Is bad boy. He
is one of the boys indicted for robbing
A. b. Wood New Years morning. After
some hesitation Judge Kelly sentenced
the boy to the reformatOry at st. Cloud

AN 1R1nEsCENr DREAM.

G. j. BUELL., who is HENRY GEORGES
apostle to the MinneSotans, blew into
the recent Democratic county eonven-
ton with a proxy from the interurban
district. BUELL. has long been terror
in Minneapolis, surcharged with the
spirit of controversy, endlessly agitating,
rousing ever his fellow citizens to re-
examination of their economic faith,
valiantly fitting against windmills, as
we'll as against the strongly entrenched
fortresses Of conventionalism. DAN
LAwLER gave him his opportunity
Thursday by appointing him chair
man Of the committee on reso-
buttons. Why any resolutions were
needed on such an occasion did not not
at first appear, but when the singIe-tax
advocate had SHE'D a sentence or
two at the delighted assembly every
body was prepared to admit that a
county convention without resolutions
was as incomplete as New England
dinner without pie. If there are any
carping skeptics in the outside world
who do not believe this, let them chew
over this linguistic mastodon of
BUELL's divising for an hour or two:
The great work Of reforming our national
system of taxation has given to our party
an ISSUE and has gathered around that issue
party of honest, earnest determined men,
pledged to take no step backward, but, max
ing progress" our watchword, go on with
the fight until the last vestige of unjust taxa
ton shall be destroyed and the ancient
Democratic principle of equal rights for all
and special privileges for none shall become
reality Instead of an 1ridescent dream.

SEEN ON THE STREETS.

1t behoovesy one in these days of bottom.
less pits at every corner, and mud in the
middle of every block to keep on the good
side of the street car conductor. AS the rep
resentative of q grasping soulless corpora
ton. he is an important parsonage. and
whether he jams you in the ribs with his ell
bow, as he crowds up front for fares or
leaves you standing forlornly on the corner
as his car whizzes merrily by, he is an auto
erat and the naughty airs OF the passenger
don't go down with him al all
It Il
Now, women, as sex, are adorable, but
here and there angels weep to observe the
exceptions that prove the rule. Yesterday a
woman came down town on the Grand ave
nue. line. She had particularly unpleasant
and diaboleal child with her. She made the
car wait for her while she coaxed that young
hopeful along till the nand of every woman
in the car itched to spank the child. The
conductor finally told her to hurry up-I
suppose he should have said, make haste,'
but he didn't. He said, Hurry up and he
said it with the accent on every syllable.
That woman, as she climbed aboard the car,
stopped and-well, the things she SAID to
him were not profane, but they were ex-
pres-sive. She called him brute in
the most vicious way imaginable, and
the child kicked at him. Conduct
ors, you know, are after all human, and
though this one said not word he Kept
thinking and thinking all the way down
town. Finally the woman scowled at him
and jerked her head toward a cross street.
He nodded, and then with an instinct for re-
venge one couldn't blame him for having he
brought that ear to halt at the biggest mud
puddle in town. Madame didn't see it till
too late, and as she went in up to her ankles
the brute on the back platform smiled in
genuousiy.
The milliners' shops just now are wilder
nesses of artificial flowers, above which bends
that deceptive woman who promises you
soiemnly a new bonnet for the recep-
ton Tuesday, and SENDS it home the
Friday after. Some OF the flowers are
dreams of beauty. Some of them
the milliners ought to be boiled alive
for showing. Wheat of every imaginable
color is a novelty of the season, and the
'stfeamers." which have been out for a dec
ade or more, promise to be revived The
majority of the hats are pretty, but one in
the showcase of fashionable milliner is a
cause for nightmare. 1t is small affair of
black lace straw, fat and unobtrusive. The
front is really pretty, but at the back is
bunch of downy thistles, in the center of
each of which lies hideous, irridescent
green worm. Some woman no doubt will
buy it and wear it, but if it doesn't result in a
