The Danger Attending Sail
ing Parties When Dark
on the Lake.
Great Need for Boats to Dis
play Some Kind Of q
Signal.
Society Becoming Gayer With
the Waning of the
Summer.
Personal Pointers Garnered
for the Edificati on Of
the Curious.

Did II ever occur to any one of the
many parties of young people who are
enjoying the pleasure of sailing about
White Bear lake these summer even
lngs that there are other persons out on
the lake, and that other sail boats are
cruising ABOUT in the dark fully as heed
leSsly and thOughtleSsly as their own?
how often els the boat sent rushing
along through the night under full sail,
each one of the merry party on board,
except perhaps the one man at the til
Ter, whose attention is oftentimeS too
much given TO some matter foreign TO
the management OF the boat; heedlessly
ignoring the fact that there is any ne
cessity for keeping a sharp lookout for
the slow and slent-moving row boats,
whose rights are superior to those OF
the sail boats. When one stops to
consider that every evening when the
breezes are propitious for sailing there
are, on on average, fifty sail boats cruis-:
Ing about the lake, each one covering at
least ten miles and each, with one ex-
ception. sailing along without the
slightest regard for any one or anything
outside of its own careless party, one
can gain some insight into the reasons
many persons have for refusing to sail
in the night. What do you think would
become of the master of a ship
who should sail. even in midocean,
without lookout stationed in the fore
top? Then think. of these fifty boats
sailing about within a circle, the
diameter of which is less than four
miles. The matter of sailing without
Lookout Is further aggravated by the
TACT that very few of the boats display
any lights. making it almost impossible
TO discover the presence of boat until
she is almost upon one. The state of
Minnesota has no statute regulating the
displaying of lights by sailing vessels
upon waters solely within the states
jurisdiction, but the United States law
makers have considered the matter of
sufficient Importance to provide for a
line of 5000 in case of any vessel with
out lights, lookout or with false lights.
1t is not necessary that the same mill
utenesS of detail in regard 10 lights be
observed on our little lake craft that
are exacted from vessels upon national
waters, but let us be d little. nay,
great deal more careful in this respect
III the future than we have been hereto
fore. 1t will require a very little eX-
penditure Of money, and almost as little
OF labor TO display some sort of a light
on every sail boat on White Bear, and
when this is done fearful anxiety will
be lifted from the minds of many whose
capacity for pleasure is at present over
burdened with dread lest some fearful
catastrophe happen during these dark
nights. 1t is but question of time
until collision occurs, and then it will
be too late. We all know the truthful
ness of the old adage, - Astich in time
saves nine," and let us act accordingly.

Now Is come the time when the man
or woman who will do something-any-
thing,i really doe ,n't matter what-will
confer favor on his neighbors, for
society is dead and there's nothing
going on. Perhaps if society were really
dead it wouldn't be so bad, for then
anarchists and men who don't dance
would attend the funeral and make it
spectacle to be remembered. Society is
not dead, but sleeping, and during the
midsummer nap her devOteeS may amuse
themselves as best suits their pleasure.
For the most part they go to the lakes.
The hotel hops have never been so sue
cessful as this year. and the season,
though frOwned on at its opening by
the clerk of the weather bureau, bids
fair to end in whirl of gaiety. Every
body is tanned, everybody's hands are
callOused, and beauty's eyes that had
begun to look dull and heavy at Lent,
are bright and clear again. There is
plenty to do out of town, and in town it
is eminently correct to appear at the
races. 1t is too hot for town functions,
and till cooler days and longer evenings
come, society may be expected to sleep
on in OPacp

."PRlDE GOES BEFORE A FALL"

The only county institutions not filled
by Union Leaguers are the hospital and
Jail: one or two of them in the past mar
rowly missed the, latter, but none have
been reduced to seeking the shelter OF
the former, which is fortunate for them
and the taxpayers. They control the
expenditures for the conduct of the hos
pital, however, and the figures which
are given in another column, show one
very good reason why the supervisors
really found it necessary to fix the
county tax levy at the appallingly high
figure of 81. AS per 500 worth of prop
erty.
The county expense account shows
that for hospital service $l00, Jos has
been expended during the past year,
which averages $SS43 per month! For
the county hospital only $27 ,537 II was
spent, leaving s72, ,567. .ss, which is cup
posed to be paid for. incidentals, indi-
gents and like subjects.
There is one fact about the local
county government which is patent to
every observer. The officials have fed
at the public treasury so long, and have
made their living with go little expendi-
ture of brain or muscle force, that they
are incapable of appreciating the value
OF dollar, 1t requires no partisan
spirit to make this criticism. The fig
ures show Tor themselves, from the
court house furniture prodigality down
to County Clerk Wards recent thrifty
use of the county's stamped envelopes
for the purpose Of circulating slip from
his e2cusatory organ, the Express,
which contained the argument that he
acted from a pure, statesmanlike mo-
tive, in giving contract for public
printing for about $1,000 which could
have been let for $4,000 or less. The
officials have become intoxicated with
power, and the idea that Republican
majority in the county of something
like 1000 votes, will keep them in Office,
has increased their insolencs in the face
of exposure, and the consequent GER
tainty of continuing to handle the
money of the people. But insolence,
as we'll as pride, goes before fall. The
HERALD believes they are mistaken in
their low appreciation of the intelli-
gence and thrift of the people, and has
the strong expectation that the desire
for good, economical and honest govern
ment, which seems to be prevalent, re-
gardless of party, will result in the
downfall of the tax. eaters. The recent
tax levy o. 1.45 is but an indication OF
what is before us, if the Union League
bureaucracy is continued. The next
time 1t will probably reach somewhere
near the ten dollar mark. Is it not
time to call halt?

Agin Wimmin's Rites.

l was at a recent celebration of our
country's freedom. OF course that fa-
nous declaration regarding the equali-
ty CD of all was read from flower be-
decked and flag draped platform. After
the orator of the day had finished his
grandiloquence group of excited talk
ers attracted my attention. l pricked
up my ears, for found twas the wom-
an question, which will not down, that
was causing the disturbance. Some did
not like the speakers utterances on the
question. He had to say something, for
it cannot be ignored at the present day,
and being young man and progressive,
of course he favored our cause. This
angered his conservative listeners.
One of these, a rough visaged old
man, whom l will call Father Follinsby.
excitedly exclaimed: "Hang it ALL this
wimmin's rites business makes me all
fired mad (Spits to the right of him. J
Darn it all! Let 'em quit all this non
sensical talk O. votin an stick tn their
knittin an razin O. families; let 'em be

A Comfortable Warm Weather Dress.

A Comfortable Warm Weather Dress.
Never heard of a Chinese collapsing
from the heat, did you?" asked a West
side doctor as he famed himself vigor-
ously and occasionally tugged away at
his shirt collar "They may be heather,
but they have more common sense in
apparel than all of us good Christians
combined. l just passed one of the
queued gentry standing at the corner of
Madison and Clark at high noon, the
sun pouring upon the top Of his head
and the thermometer registering 81 i'll
the shade. He was cool as cucumber.
"He wore no band about his shirt and
no collar to shirt or blouse. Vest he had
none. You and have from twenty to
twenty-five thicknesses of cloth close
about our jugulars and then we say we
are Christians. Christians know suicide
to be sinful, don't they? Then how dare
they choke themselves in blistering
weather? And the Chinaman isn't idiot
enough to clinch his undergarments to
his back with perspiration producing
suspenders, nor wear his shirt inside his
trousers. He affects cool sandals and
light hats, and in all shows superb re-
gard for his safety. Next to following
the example of our first parents in their
first estate, the Chinese plan in summer
is the most comfortable style of dress
upon the face of the earth. ."-Chicago

A Tricycle. for Land or Water.

The people along Ogden boulevard,
near Douglas park, at 9:30 o'clock
one morning stopped and looked with
wonder at slender man who was rid
ing a queer machine toward the park.
The amazement Of those who followed
was not diminished when they saw the
man ride into the park, down the drive
to the water and out on the lake. The
man was T. J. Olsen, a boot and shoe
maker.
The machine somewhat resembled a
tricycle., but on the spokes of the drive
wheels there were paddles and the little
wheel was covered with sheet iron and
served as rudder. Underneath the
main. axle and about four inches from
the ground two boats six feet in length
and eighteen inches beam, about two
feet apart, like the hulls of catama-
ran, adapted the queer craft to the
water. The speed attained was equal
to that of rowboat, and Mr.. Olsen
claimed it was more easily propelled

sfcles are manufactured in this coun-
sty than where they are not. Fifth
That the tariff imposed upon all manu-
factured articles (other than those which
for good reasons are placed on the free
list) should equal the difference between
the rate of wages paid in this and foreign
countries go far as labor enters into the
cost of their production.
This, as the New York World says,
has been the Democratic position ever
since the question was newly raised by
the Morrill, war tariff OF 1861. 1t was
the platform upon which Tilden was
elected. 1t was the guiding principle of
President Cleveland's famous tariff mes
sage of 1887. 1t has shaped every DEM
ocratic attempt to reduce the monstrous
exaction of the Republican tariff for
the benefit of monopolists.
The Mckinley act violates every
one of these cardinal principles.
Two-thirds of the revenue under it
is collected from the necessaries of life.
1t taxes outrageously the food, fuel,
clothing and shelter of the people. 1t
taxes luxuries lightly. 1t handicaps our
manufacturers, and increases the cost oi
goods by heavy taxes upon raw mate
rials-,he only tariff in the world guilty
of such barbarian.
Under pretext OF equalizing the differ.
ence in wages, it imposes tax equal on
ali average to double the entire labor
cost in manufactured articles.
