NEEDS NEW LEE.
Y. M. @. A. Importing Material to
That End


An effort is being made to infuse new
life into the Y. Nj. G. A. OF this city
since the resignation of President Suy-
dam and Secretary Horton. While under
the management of those gentlemen the
association did not make the marked
improvement and advancement that
many hoped for, and the effort toput up
the building at the corner of Tenth and
Minnesota streets was futile. The
friends OF the association are now taking
steps to not only go OH with the build
ing, but to place the association in
fiourishng ctSdition. There were many
who would N subscribe to the ultra
religious and ml.sSiOnory enthusiasm of
Messrs. Suydam and Horton, who will
take an interest in the association when
conducted on ths liberal spirit charac-
terizing associations in other cities.
John II. Hague, secretary of the in
ternational association, is in the city,
and will remain here two OR three
months to work in the way of putting
new life into the ST. Paul association.
G.. ID. Meighs. of indianapolis, who has
made a record in that city i'll raising
money to put up building, is also In
the city, and will give the St. Paul peo-
pie some points III the same line.
COLLEEN b. Smell. of Philadelphia, is
also here and possible will receive a call
to the secretaryship of the association.
He is a young man of pleasing address
and one who has had experience in assO-
citation work in Boston and Philadel
phia and is somewhat familiar with the
work in the West. The directors had
special meeting last night and will hold
another meeting Saturday night. 1t is
probable that a call will be given to Mr..
Smell. That gentleman said last night
that he had not been offered the secre-
taryship and that he is not yet familiar
with the needs and conditions OF the
city in the Y. NJ. G. A. line and could
not say what he will do in case he
should be asked to become secretary.

THE MERRY WAR.

The GLOBE is delighted to witness the
revival of the merry war between Saint
Paul and Minneapolis. 1t would, per-
hapS, have been better had the outbreak
been postponed few days. But from
surface indications the captains of the
opposing hosts are well supplied with
ammunition of the time-proved pattern,
and there is every reason to hope that
the bloodieSt hOStilities can be Kept up
until after the Republican convention
adiourns. Such a prospect IS very
gratifying. The visitors from abroad
who are coming to the Northwest dur
ing the first week in June will have to
be entertained in some way. and no per-
Torrance of which local talent Is ca
pable is so unique. so characteristic and
SO interesting to strangers as an inter-
urban pitched battle.
The present complication was precipi-
tated by the Pioneer Press washing
its hands of the whole affair."" Some
thing appalling always happens when
the Pioneer Press 'waShes its hands"
The spectacle Is unendurably Calling to
the city up the river, and the Mime
apoliS board of trade invariably bursts
forth into uncomfortable Mysteries when
forced to contemplate it. The contem-
porary attack is the worst one OH rec
ord, and a committee of muscular men,
bers has been promptly appointed to
''dismantie" all the flour mills and
foundrieS in Hennepin county and con-
vert them into fiTSt-cIaSS hotels, so that
not delegate shall be allowed to seek
lodgings in st. Paul. On Monday morn
ing our chamber of commerce, which
for some months has met weekly only to
adjourn instanter, found its occupation
restored By the temperance of the war
cloud OH the horizon, spent many hours
in busy session. applauded dozen in
cendiary speeches. and with giittering
eyeballS unanimously adopted a series
of fierce retaliatory resolutions.
This is the complete history of the
trouble up to this point, but every lover
of innocent amusement will cooperate
in seeing that the end is not yet. Min
neapolis, with customary enterprise,
will build a wall about its municipal
environs during the next week Or two,
and will abandon the proposed improve
ment of the Mississippi river, SO that
no man who once enters its gates shall
be able to escape into the borders of its
hated rival. In St. Paul, on the other
hand, most attractive programme of
pleasurable crime will be inaugarated.
A body of experts in this line. whose
qualifications would satisfy even the
supreme court, has already been select
ed to take charge of the work. No eX-
pense will be spared to provide such
opportunities for recreation" as the
delegates will appreciate, and the voice
of tine siren, the whir of the merry-go-
round, the. elatter of the chips and the
other sounds dear to the ears of politi-
clans will be relied on to decoy the Wis
itOrs TO our streets. The outcome of
these opposing tactics will be waited
with breathless attention. 1t will be a
beautiful contest of craft against mus
Gle. The GLOBE is feveriSh with joy
over the possibilities. On with the

If Gov. GEORGE WASHINGTON PECK,
of Wisconsin. has presidential aspira-
tons, it is sufficient to say that he has
them under perfect control. Several
unkind filings have been made in his
direction by Republican organs, accom-
panied by unwarranted illusions to an
alleged "busted BOOM" All this is I'M
called for, because Gov. PECK himself
is in no wise responsible for reports
that have connected his name with the
Democratic candidacy for president.
The truth Is, however, he stands in the
same relation to the nomination as does
Gov. BOIES. of IeWa-that of a Demo-
cratic governor who has rescued his
state from the evils of RepublicaniSm,
with the exception that his state has
not Instructed for him. Gov. PECK is as
ardent CLEVELAND man as Senator
PALMER. He made cool mayor of
Milwaukee; he has made better gov
ernoT of Wisconsin than BEN HARRI-
son has made president of the United
States. No official scandals have at
taehed themselves to Gov. PECK'S mu-
nicipal or state administrations. Could
the same be said of HARRISON he would
stand in fairer light before the Mime
apolis convention.

The first department he visited was, of
course, the southwest wing of the bald
ing, where Gov. Merriam is always to
be found in the mornings. Tams
Bixby, the atfable private secretary of
the chief executive, was in the outer
room when MI. Heatwole entered, and
said:
''Good morning. Governor"
This was almost too much for the
state chairman. but he was not given
the opportunity then to reply as he de-
sired, for Will Angel, who has been

Dairy Commissioner Finseth, Insur-

General Mullen. the board of railway
commissioners, and even the c0lored
janitor, E. z. Wade, were on hand and

''Come in and allow me to look at you

who appeared at the door OF his private
Office at this time. For the next quarter
of an hour the governor and the North
field editor were cioseted together and
the levee was postponed. Before leay-

nounced that a call had been issued for
a meeting of the Republican state CEN

the time and decide upon the place for
the holding of the state convention for

spare. Some mistake was made in COM
putting the needs of the people on
the other side rather than their abil-
ity to buy. 1t is probably we'll
for even the wheat producers of this
country that it was not possible to work
a corner on their product, and force the
price to abnormal figures. That would
have reduced the sales abroad. and
stirred up the utmost possible competi-
ton from India, Australia and South
America, and shriveled the oppor-
tuhitieS of the future. 1t was we'll that
the frantic and. perhaps. irresponsible
cry to hold their wheat had little per-
cepuble response. Had it been gem
orally followed, it would have subjected
the farmers to enormous losses, and
it would have endangered their oppor-
tunitieS in the future. AS it is, the
remnant of the crop carried over seems
to be larger than usual.

THE SUBURBS GRIEVANCES.

Hamline and st. Anthony Park are
having more than their share of trouble
with the transportation problem. Eter-
nal vigilance is the price they have
to pay for street car facilities, and
even this does not save them from con-
slant alarm and disquiet. OF all our
suburbs, they are the most attractive
and promising, and it is very unfortu-
nate that their peace and progress
should be threatened again and again
by the unaecOuntable fickleness of Mr..
LowRY'S Iieutenants. The service
now afforded them is none too good
for their size and Importance, and
he sympathy of the entire COM
munity is with them in their protests
against the proposed changes. The
transfer system at the best is a
nuisance. tolerated only in eases where
kis necessary, but its extension to new
lines is not to be thought of for a
moment. The council will not author
lie the construction of the Smelling
avenue route, and will insist that
through cars be continued as heretofore
from the center of the city to Hamline
and st. Anthony Park.

REVOLVING CONDITION.
In Which the Relief Agent Found
Family of Children.

IL ~ "a
81 discovered the most shocking
scene that I ever witnessed. 1 have
Just come from the most squalid howell
in all ST. Paul, and no man can realize
the picture of misery. 1t is awful"
So said Agent Hutchins, of the relief
association, III the Office of the corpora
proceeded to more minute description.
The relief association conducts. almost
ton attorney yesterday afternoon, and
then he everybody knows, a kind
ergarten for the care of the
children of mothers that are forced
to 60 out into the world to
work for bread for the family. One of
the families that sent their little ones to
this charitable institution some months
ago was that of john Ribold. There
were four helpless babies, clad III the
most miserable way, and they always
locked half starved. They continued to
come TO the kindergarten until a short
time ago. and yesterday it occurred to
MIR. Hutchins that he had best look up
the family. He recalled the fact that
the children had every appearance of
INDECENT poverty, and he suspected that
something was wrong. "a
After long search he located the
family in sqHalid howell on Fairfield
avenue near the railroad track, on the
west side of the river. He went there
about O'Clock, and he found the house
securely locked, but he could hear
children crying inside. He was tempted
to break i'll the door, but an exaBina.
ton of the lock on the kitchen door
showed that it was one Of those common
affairs that almost any ordinary, key
will fit. He tried one he happened to
have with him, and the door swung
open. He found himself in a niSeTable
kitchen, and he noticed that there was
a little food OIL shelf, but he was, iIor-
ror-struek when he observed that the
door leading to the room where he Gould
hear the children was fastened with
spikes. Mr.. Hutchins met with coilsiEl-
cradle trouble in removing the halls,
but succeeding, the children were
found. There were four babieS.the oldest
a girl of only seven years and the
Youngest an infant of ten months. The
sight he pursued to describe was most
revolving in the extreme. The old rag
carpet was Teeklng mass of excre-
ments and filth. and the stencil was so
vile that the agent was glad to step to
the door to get a breath of fresh air.
When he returned the little girl eX-
planned that her father works for G. B.
ThurstoIl. and that the mother peddleS
vegetables.
Inquiry at Mr.. Thur5ton's revealed
the fast that Ribold receives $40
month, but he does not always have EN-
pIoyment. He is supposed to be sober
and industrious, and this leads. to the
theory that the mother is to blame for
the cruelty to the children. She locks
them up every day from early morning
till late at night without a morsel Of
food. aud all for misery greed for
