AS A SUMMER RESORT.

The recent visitors have not had a
fair chance to realize the full adapta-
tIons OF st. Paul to the ideal Of sum-
mer resort. The atmospheric condl-
tions have been as miscellaneous and
Heterogeneous as the composition of the
political aggregation lately on eXhibi-
tion at the other twin. The therm0me-
tiers have bobbed up and down in an
indecorOus and unprecedented way. and
the sun has had small chance to display
his Wonted June serenity. But the
conditions have not been local or sec
tiona!. This section has had a full
share ofthe best weather on the boards.
If it has had more rain than good
usage warrants. other resorts have
also had, and there are none where
the inconvenience is less. The pave
ments and streets are kept washed as
clean as the constantly mopped side
walks of Philadelphia, and the air has
been pure and healthful. With the
lovely environment of clear and placid
lakes all about. it might be supposed
that in the summer months the resi-
dents would spend all the time possible
at them; but, as a matter of fact, it is so
comfortable IN the city and there are
such convenient means for obtaining
the comforts Of existence that few really
care to spend much time cut Of town for
enjoyment. Refreshing breezes always
are had on the river or the bluffs, the
nights are cool and sleep inducing. and
for comfort in the heated season st.
Paul has few rivals.

dents undisputed. and he has new er showed
so much rs twiTch of the mugwump palsy.
Ii is all right for Mr.. DANA TO see
things that way for the consolation of
his own spirit, but when he asks his
readers TO look through the same spec
tacles it is straining friendship. Far
from being an "unfiecEed partisan" OF
the Republican party, Mr.. REID is one
OF the fathers of mugwumpery. Twenty
years ago Mr.. REID was first and fore
most in the movement which resulted in
HORACE GREELEY'S nomination for the
presidency by the Liberal party, and his
subsequent Endorsement by the De-
mocracy. During tie campaign which
followed Mr.. REID conducted the Trib-
une in the interests of Mr.. GREELEY
candidacy, aud did ir with such zeal and
clevernesS that his prominence and
prosperity date from that time. From
that campaign, also, dates modern mug
wumpery, and although Mr.. REID
speedily diSnwned his offspring. the
facts regarding its paternity are mat
ter of history not vet ancient enough to
be ruled out.

PARSON SHEPARD.

The suggestion of Col. ELLIOTT f.
SHEPARD'S name in connection with
the vacant secretaryship of state is one
OF the most effective efforts of the hui
morists who have fattened on the oppor-
tunities afforded by this now moribund
administration. Since that first deft
assertion of Gen. GEORGE SHERIDAN,
tha. "HARRISoN is making HAYES
great" there has been no keener shaft
aimed at the administration than this
proposal to make Parson SHEPARD a
part and parcel of it. And yet, 1t IS
extremely probable that the humer of
the suggestion escapes Mr.. HARRISON
altogether, and he may even be giving
the proposition serious consideration.
The fact that ParSOn SHEPARD is the
chamSion religious crank" of the day.
barring @nly few Of the most lurld
Salvation Army Shouters, will hardly
occur to Elder HARRISON as being dis
qualification; and that is one thing that
helps along the joke. Indeed, it is diff
ficult to determine which is the more
amusing spectacle that presents itself
to the minds eye-the parson attempt
ing to paddle aboutin BLXINE's shoes,
! or the president cOmplacently re-
garding the excellence of the fit.
And then, too, think of the Op-
pOrtunities for missionary work which
such position as that OF secretary of
state would afford the parSon. In ar
ranging reciprocity treaties with Bor
neo, Patagonia and other outlying ma
tions he could preface each of his letters
with Scriptural quotations, and could
wrap SOul-saVing tract around each
string of beads offered, not in bribery
but in disintereSted friendship, to
the prime ministers of all these
mighty governments. To be sure. he
works the quotation scheme now. in the
columns of his New York paper, but
! the effect is rather Handicapped by the
Tips Oh the Races" and --latest Police
| Court Scandals" which also adOfn those
| columns.
1t would be great triumvirate, truly
HARRISON. who considers himself the
Lords annointed and special protege
| of Providence; WANAMAKER, who
poses as a good and holy man with a
great aptitude for raising corruption
funds, and SHEPARD, who carries the
! Bible in one hand and a gamblers guide
in the other. A great triumyirate-a
hard three Of kind to beat. But how
does Mr.. BLAINE like the picture OF
| Parson SHEPARD holding down his late
| job, and doing it ''too easy?''

STATE PRESS TIPS.

As the Taylor's Falls journal sees it: "Mer-
riam presses the button. The politicians do
The rest in the caususes and conventions.
1t may not be SO in November"
Pease, of the Anoka Union, agrees with
this: From remarks heard in the conyen-
ton and out, a federal office holder is about
the meanest creation of the nineteenth CEN
tury. The Union has no time to dispute it."
Tn3 Sherburhe Advance will not forgiv
those who opposed Harrison. 1t says:
Quay, Clarkson and Platt are the chief con-
sprators and in the language of Andrew
johnson we say, spot them. they are trait

The Willmar Argrs wanted Blaine, and
would have revenge on the delegates who
did not go for him: THE delegates to the1
national convention from Minnesota that
misrepresented Minnesota should receive

interest or hope in the breasts OF the
leaders. In the Seventh district the
congressional nomination is going beg
ging, when in former days every
county furnished a candidate. The
few Republicans left in the district,
however, are opposed to the nomina-
ton of eX-Congressman S. q. Com
stock, of Moorhead. and they will
probably be able TO find man with
whom to oppose him before the conven-
ton meets; if not Mr.. Comstock will be
nominated and no effort will be made
to elect him.
The Sixth district is not so much
affected by the Alliance Eyote, and is
considered close politically. Only two
Republicans have so far veDtured to
enter the race for the nomination, and
one of these, Judge ID. B. SearIe. does
not care much whether he is selected or
defeated. The district is too close for
comfort after the ignominious defeat Of
Blaine. "Zcke" Kendall is the other
man, and he is really hard at work.
The Third and Fourth districts have
so far developed no aspirants for the
Republican nomination as both are con-
ceded to be Democratic beyond doubt.
In the First, Second and Fifth number
Of candidates are III the field but i'll the
Second some Of the aSpirants are little
afraid or the future. The nomination
of the unknown henchman of Fish and
Donnelly in the Peoples party conyen-
ton at Mankato last week made them
breath easier, but the move of the ALI
ance party has scared them. They fear
that Gen. Baker will be nominated by
the anti-Sub-treasury Alliance and sub
sequently indorSed by the Democrats i'll
which event no Republican can win.
The Republican masses OF Minnesota
were for BIaine by all overwhelming
majority and the defeat of their favorite

REID DEFENDED.

That WHITELAW REID has always
been the enemy Of labor unions may be
conceded. His antagOnism may have
been so pronounced that he would not
tolerate in the Tribune Office an avowed
member or Sympathizer with a typo
graphical union. As he is now candi
date for high Office on a platform that
processes lofty devotion to the interests
OF labor, it is pertinent to inquire how
his acts align with party professions.
There are ingenious theories advanced
TO establish his consistency. He has
been misapprehended. Unions of labor
are organized TO insure better wages
than would be had otherwise. Mr.. REID
has had his heart set upon the prosper
ity of the working classes and the
securing to them Of good wages, but he
believes in different method. His
theory is that large tariff tax OH arti-
cles and goods imported increases the
wages of labor in this country. By tax
ing the consumers of such productions
labor is to be elevated and better wages
secured to the employees. III place of
unions he would have protective tariff
clubs. To doubt the efficacy of this
method or to attempt other ways of
reaching the end is to cast suspicion
upon the cardinal principle of Mr..
REID's party. He is too good a Repub-
lican to consent 10 any scheme that
ignores his party panacea. If it is
doubted that McKinIeyism promotes
prosperity in the industrial lines. and
affords labor assurance of equitable re-
wards, where is the faith needful for
the party oracle? Unions afford an i'm
putation unGn the accomplishment of
the tariff regimen. 1t is probable that
the difficulty Of making the superficial
and unphiloSophical toilers see the true
inwardness OF the thing, may induce
Mr.. REID to compromise with the union
until after the election, but if there is
an opening here to vindicate his con-
sistency, il ought TO be carefully
worked

The people who ignorantly talk of the
decline of Cleyeland's popularity from
1884 to 1855 would do well to take
glance at the election returns. In New
York Cleveland received 72,S11 more
votes in 1888 than in 1884; i'll New Jer-
Sey, 23.710 more; in Indiana, l6,023
more, and in Connecticut, 7,721 more.
New York gave him 100000 more votes
in 1855 th9n in 1882, when he was elect
ed governor of that state by a plurality
of nearly $4,000. Although defeated by
the electoral college system, his total
vote in 1888 was 5,536, 242-an increase
OF 66l. .256 over his vote in 1884, and a
popular plurality of 1854 over Harri-
son, n,-Philadelphia Record Oem.).

ALL WILL SUPPORT 1T.

When man now defines his party
p osition with 81 am Democrat" he is
taken to mean that he intends to sup
port the nominees OF the Chicago COIL
vention whether they are of his choice
or not. Senator Hill has been criti-
cised in some quarters over his use of
the phrase. There had been lnsinua-
tions, baseless and unwarranted, that in
the last presidential campaign he had
swerved point or two. No doubt he
had this in mind, and meant TO affirm
his party loyalty. He will support the
ticket named at Chicago in entire good
faith. There is no reason to doubt thas
this will be true of all who go there to
influence the action of the convention.
The men who met at Syracuse pledged
themselves to this course. Republican
are feeding themselves on false hopes
when they look for diSsensions and di-
visions to be carried into the campaign.

vERM1r.YEA FOR CONGRESS.

The Italian hand of that adrOit polit-
ical manipulatOr- IGNATIUS DoNNELLY,
can be seen in the nomination Of this
man VER.uLYEA as the candidate of
the Peoples party for congress from
the First district. DONNELI.Y lives in
Dakota county; but the field of his per-
nicious activity covers a broader baili-
wick. Last week he turned down Gen.
BAKER in the Second district and nOmi-
mated farmer named LoNG in his
stead. 1t is confidently expected that
the Third district will next know his
presence. The Peoples party has been
organized with cOnsummate skill as far
as the arrangement of its internal ma
ehlnpry is concerned. It's divisions into
bodies Of a thousand, bodies of
a hundred and bodies of ten
have been so constituted that they re-
spond with automatic eXactness to the
will of their boss. who created and now
controls them. The government of the
party is lot from below upwards, but in
the hands of single debating chief.
He picks out the VERAIILYEAS and the
LONGs for preferment, not that he ex-
poets or desires to elect them. if the
reports as to their standing in the COM
munities from which they hail are accu-
rate their intelligence is not such as
equips them to represent a great state
in congress. But they are good enough
to hold the faction together and to be
sold or traded in November. The Peo-
pies party committed suicide when it

The foregoing call was UNANIMOUSLY
agreed upon by the state central com
mittee of the Alliance party at q meet
ing held in ST. Paul June II, A. ID. 1892,
at which meeting the following resolu-
tion was unanimously passed:
The Alliance party of the state of Mime
sota by its state central committee, congratu-
lates the people.
First-On the magnificent vote of the party
for s. NJ. Owen for governor in 1892 and in
the election of thir cen members of the state
senate, who now owe allegiance to the party
electing them.
Second-On the legal establishment of the
Alliance party under the Australian system,
and IT'S sure possession OF this great political
party franchise.
Third-On the discovery. by legal investi-
CATION by joint committee of the Legislature,
of the existence OF organized tyranny and
methods OF gigantic combine to close the
markets of Minnesota and the Northwest for
wheat and grain to the forced and infamous
price list of the combined dealers, elevator
companies and railway and lake lines of
transportation.
Fourth-On the stubborn spirit of resist
ance of our masses TO the Mckinley bill : and
Last-On the proud consciousness of the
individuals of our party i'll their personal
liberty ard unfaltaring devotion TO the phil
anthropy illuminated in that greatest plat
form of all time-the Sermon OH the Mount
under which divine light OUT masses repudi-
ate the paternal heresies of the sub treasury
bill.
We reafirm our allegiance to the Alliance
party platform adopted July IT, 1880, and ask
our farmers and workingmen, who have slept
upon their arms for two years, TO form cur
splendid phalanx.

YOUTHFUL CRIMINALS,

Two boys. each sixteen years of age,
are under sentence of death, one in
Iowa and the other in New Jersey, for
the commissions of atrocious murders.
The circumstances and causes in both
cases are similar in most essential re-
spectS. The New York Herald discusses
elaborately the causes of the crime of
the New Jersey boy. 1t was not due to
greed TO possess property or revenge
for injury. Nor was it the outgrowth
,Of education among the criminal or
vicious classes. The boy was an average
of school boys. His parents were re-
spectacle and his home life pleasant.
He went to Sunday school usually, and
was altogether commonplace boy, with
no noticeable tendency to vicious ways.
On the trial, however, his mother testi-
fed that lie was rabid devOureT of
the literary trash that is so plen-
tiful now for boys. lie was a dime
novel fiend. 1t was estimated that he
had read 500 volumes of the wild and
lurid sort, marvellous adventures, rob-
berries, murders and all that sort of
thing. His mind reyeled in scenes of
blood and the mock heroics of crime.
The Iowa boy fed his mind on a similar
diet and smoked all the cigarettes he
could obtain. He followed the style of
the blood ard thunder novels he had
added his brain with in all the details
OF his murder of the unsuspicious vic
tins, and initiated the braEado of the
villain on his trial. 1t may be presumed
that these boys had somewhat unnatural
dispositions and tendencies. bat they
were fed and developed by the vile lit
erature they absorbed. The practical
lesson is that parents and these who
have charge of boys should give close
attention to the habits of the young in
their reading.
