under his administration of the system

Even If license fee OF $4,000 for each
company were TO be liked. the annual
income would only be about s2GO,OOO. 1t
is not likely they would be satisfied
to pay such large fee. If the fee
were fixed even at $4,000 each, which
certainly would be enormous. the
amount would scarcely exceed what the
treasury will soon receive under the
present agreement. 1t may be said that
the legislature is to fix this license fee
the more the pity.
~ Here Is a corruption Fund,
large enough to control almost any
legislature. If the people of the state
of Minnesota retain their senses they
will never ratify this constitutional
amendment. 1t is the most daring at
tempt at robbery ever made upon free
people. If it be carried through the
progress of development will be effect
ually stayed. The people will relieve
the railroad companies of a burden only

may talk of carpet bag governments in
Mississippi, but they will be no patch
ing to the one we shall get in Mime
sofa.
1.-The latter clause of the proposition
generously allows the state, in case the
percentage Oh gross earnings is contin-
ued, to still provide taxation of lands
mot used in the business This is very
generous, for the companies still retain
but little land not so used. Besides, the
gross earnings provision is not intended
to have any force. That is to be liter
ally killed by the insidious effort to eS-
tablish an annual license fee. The very
same argument will apply to insurance
companies. They are now paying an
nually into our treasury over a hundred
thousand dollars. Telegraph and tele-
phone companies are paying some
$4,000 to $4,000 year. The mining pro-
visions. too, are wholly in the interests
of spectators. The whole amendment
I is rotten to the core, and every citizen

appropriately Observed by the
Churches of the City.
Yesterday was Prison Sunday through H.
out the Union. Appropriate services
were conducted by pastors ut their re-
spective churches, as is the custom.
The day was set aside for the purpose a
number of years ago. at the instance of
the National Prison association, and it
has GROVE in popular esteem until it is
now generally observed.
Secretary Hart, of the Minnesota
board of corrections and charities, has
exhibited an active interest in the OBJ
servance, and week ago he sent out
circulars embodying number of per
tinent suggestions that were acted upon
by the clergy of st. Paul yesterday.
At the Peoples church the services
were particularly impressive in the
morning, and it was the rule rather
than the exception that the city pastors
remembered the occasion.

A STEAM WAGON,
An Inventor Devises Scheme to Do Away
with Horses.


Baltimore, June 14-A remarkable spec
imea of mechanical ingenuity has recently
been shown by Mr.. W. r. Harris, ma
chinist of this city, who formerly resided
in Louisville. 1t is in the form of a unique
wagon, which is propelled by means Of a
Ilndusen teu-horse power gasoline engine.
The proposed wagon, which is completed
and has had one trial trip, and is now I'M
derCOing some alterations in the axle bear
ings, is about sixteen feet III length, weighs
about six thousand pounds, and is quite
long enough to seat twenty persons com
fortably. The engine, as designed and APP
piled is small and compact, resting beneath
the floor and between the aXleS, and con-
cealed by steps mounting to the body of
the vehicle. One side of the engine is fur
nished with metallic fy-wheel OF forty
eight inches diameter, at right angles to
which revOlycs friction wheel, the cir
cumference of which is leather. This
smaller wheel Is turned by the revolution
of the ty-wheel. Upon the same axle is
another small wheel, which causes to re-
volve a metal disk and to the latter is at
tuched linked chain, which likewise sur
rounds the rear hub. The power is thus
transmitted from the f1y-Wheel to the tric-
ton wheel and thence to the hub. The
speed can be increased or diminished by
widening or lessening the distance of the
friction wheel from the center of the fly
wheel. the former being ten inches i'll Cir
conference, the latter forty EIGHT inches. A
speed of from three to twenty miles is
guaranteed at cost of l cent per hour for
the engine power and 10 cents per gallon
for gasoline. A tank of thirty gallons ca
pacity will be placed in the wagon, but ten
gallons per day will probably be an ample
allowance. The levers necessary for the
propagatng, lessening and increasing the.
motion will be brake, a speed lever and
a steering apparatus, and the driver or
steerer will be placed in the front part of
the wagon. conveniently near all these.
Should the wagon fulfill the predictions of
the inventor, horsepower as a means of
street locomotion may be in great meas
ure done away with.
Catarrh Is caused by impu re blood, and Is
Cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla, which purifes
the blood and gives the whole system health
and strength. Try this peculiar medicine"

VVIHs III UVI StIHHTB'
from The Columbus. O.. Sun.


Gustavus Steiuberg, Il Swedish coin deal
er, recently received through the custom
house collection of exceedingly unique
coins, which is proposed to exhibit at the
worlds fair. The coins came from Sweden,
whore they circulated in the sixteenth
century. They bear more resemblance to
pieces of boiler iron after an explosion than
money. The coins great fat pieces of
copper cut into very poor squares. The
smallest coin is four inches square and
worth so cents, and the largest over a foot
square and with a face value of 81.
Each slab of copper is stamped in several
places with an Inscription giving its date
of issue and IT'S denomination. The largest
weighed over four pounds.
These enormous and cumbersome coins
were the result of an absurd craze which
prevailed several hundred years ago regard
ing the exclusive use of copper for money.
1t carried the coinage of copper to absurd
lengths and the people discarded its use.
In those days of copper coinage, wealthy
ladies were compelled to hire an attendant
TO accompany them to carry bucket full
of the coppers while shopping.

From The New York Advertiser.
W. l.. Thomas. white man OF l'ittsylyan1a,
Va, was the common-law husband Of q black
woman. The issue of the union vas two
daughters Bette and Fannie, the l; tier of
whom died. Bette married n Massachusetts
negro who Is now druggist IN Richmond.
Thomas died three years ago, leaving on
estate valued at $250,000. Cousins of the
deceased, as heirs-at-law, claimed the property
as against Bette Lewis, the daughter, whom
they asserted an ilegitimate child, be-
cause of the cOmmon-law marriage
There has been three years of litigation.
and the court of appeals has finally decided
that the cousins are not the legal heirs, and
that Bette Lewis Is. This is, no doubt. good
law, and it is certainly good sense and simple
justice.
We congratulate BEETLE, and only wish the
estate We're larger that the rebuke to the
grabbing white relations might be all the
more emphatic.
An important point established by this case
is the fact that it is possible for negro to
get justice in southern court. 1t will, no
doubt be asserted during the campaign that
such thing is out of the question
