DEPARTMENT POLITICS.
Still the Unseemly and Demoral-
iZing SQuabbline Goes On.

OOcS On.
Aid. Woodard's persistency in try
| ing to find out who informed Aid. Gray
that irregularities existed in the fire de-
partment pay rolls would indicate that
he was more desirouS of getting revenge
than of investigating the charges, is the
opinion of some of the parties interest
ed. AID. Gray hints that Chairman
Woodland is not at all likely to make
any great effort to unearth any startling
disclosures that might cast reflection
upon either the chief or the fire DEPART
ment committee. That some one has
been negligent and needs to be severely
cenSured, the alderman from the Thir-
teenth ward says there is no doubt.
A member of the fire committee saws,
Notwithstanding reports to the contrary,
| tnat the h0rSeShOerS were not taken out
of active service in the department.;
but were hired for that special purpose
and have never seen any actual fire
duty, or not even have been compelled
| to sleep in engine houses. and Aid.
Woodard's statement that S12 had been
saved by the experiment has caused a
great deal of comment. No doubt if
the alderman from the Seventh ward
can show an itemized account explain
ing how it was more economical to hire
four blacksmiths, one at $40 per month,
another at $50. and two at S75 a month,
than 1T was to pay $3.50 a year for
ShOelng, he will be assured renOm-
lnatloh and rendered banquet by eX-
Aid. Adams and his friends. Y
Aid. Gray will be present at the in
Yestlgatlon tomorrow. and rumOr has it
that he will explode another bomb that
is likely to cause sensation.
On this fire department investigation
matter two factions seem to be in the
field. One side is determined to make
trouble for the fire department and the
committee Oh fire department., and the
other party is interested in smoothing
matters over. One is as persistent, as
matter of fact, in raking up charges
and insinuationS as the other is in deny
Ing them. And so it goes. Honors are
on. with no prospect of cessation. So
far as the men vino congregate around
the city hall are concerned. they all talk
as if they were sorry that Chief Runge's
name must be mixed up in the affair,
AS he is the head of the fire department
it is impossible not to connect his name
with the investigation. But no one has
any idea that, even should it be found
that there have been Irregularities in
the department affairs, Runge is in any
way to blame. 1t is deplored on all
sides that the fire department cannot
be run as it used to be-without such
an admiXture of politics. There has
been nothing but fight in connection
with it since the old chief was removed
last winter. And it can be truthfully
said for Runge that he is not response
bile for the fighting

Northwestern Lumbermen Begin
Their Annual Convention.


The Northwestern Lumbermen's as
sociation is in annual session in Mime
apolis again. They began work yester-
day afternoon This is the second
largest meeting the association has ever
had. 1t is really the largest gather
ing of tradeSmen to talk over trade mat
ters that has ever gathered in the
Northwest. as there are over 300 of them
In town. They come from all over the
Northwest, from the little hamlets as
we'll as from the cities and the big lum-
Der centers. They are retailers.
Yesterday the dealers in primeval
forests reduced to a common denom-
inator had nothing to do but walk
around town and enjoy themselves
that is all most of them had to do.
The executive committee had to gather
at the West and go over little business
preliminary to the meeting in the after
noon. They considered the treasurer's
report carefully and then went to
lunch. In the afternoon the lumber
men assembled at Dyer's music hall
and were called 10 order at O'Clock.
The most important business TO come
before the association at the afternoon
meeting was the report of the secretary,
w. G. Hollis. MIR. Hollis showed that
the association is III excellent condition.
On its growth, he said
''ln RE last report we had on our
lists 366 firms, representing 512 yards.
Our list now shows 453 members, with
67S yards. Since organization, Feb. l,
1890, we have lost eighty-seven yards.
Out of this number, seven members, rep
resentlng one yard each, have been ex-
PEELED. Two had received marked ben
eft from their membership, but were
unwilling to stand by the ship in cases

UNITED STATES COURT CASES.
The Owner OF the Hennepin Block
Is After $50. 900 Damages.

Is After $50, 600 Damages.
Two damage suits for large amounts
were brought in the United States cou TT
yesterday. The largest is that of Rob.
ert +. Sample, of New York, against
the Minneapolis Trust company. He
brings suit for $4,000 because the Trust
company, who recently purchased the
Vanderburgh block, have refused to
provide elevator and janitor service.
Sample owns the Hennepin block at the
corner of Fourth street and Hennepin
1t seems that he and Vanderburgh en-
tered into contract whereby Wander
burgh was to maintain an elevator in
operation and provide janitor service
Tor term of thirty years. This agree
ment is alleged to have been made Nov.
%, 1882. The two blocks are connected
and the tenants OF the Hennepin block
therefore vse the Vanderburgh elevator.
Soon after entering into this agreement
Vanderburgh sold his block to the Min
neapoliS Trust company for $4,000,
VINO, the complaint alleges, assumed all
of Vanderburgh's obligations. Soon
after the purchase the Trust company
refused 10 comply with the obligations.
Therefore Sample claims he is damaged
to the extent of $4,000.
The other suit is that of Augusta FoS-
ter against the city. She sues for SIC, 200.
The complaint alleges that she was here
with "The Senator" w. II. Cranes
show, in October, 1891. On Oct. 81,
while going from the Grand to her
hotel. she stepped through hole in the
walk at the corner of Sixth street and
Hennepin, and broke the bones in an
ankle. She was compelled to relinqulsh
her engagement with the company for
eight weeks and now cannot play her
part without great pain. She was get
ting SIS per week with Crane. Her doc

The facilities for production OF wheat
could be governed, hut not so with gold.
Three-fifthS, and perhaps fOur-fifthS or
the gold and silver produced had been
used in the arts, and of this, little Or
nothing ever went back into coin, while
much that went into coin went back TO
the arts.
If gold were to be demonetized, he
thought the result would be that silver
would be. the more valuable metal, as 1t
was i'll the past.
Ulysses Hertig declared himself as in
favor of more silver in the dollar and
free coinage. DR.. Finnegan said that
gold and silver were the products of
labor, and that lead or iron might just
as we'll be used as the standard of
values. G. j. Buell. held that gold
and silver formed a better STAN
dard than any other product. They
came into use by the people stimuli
taneously before the government took
any action in this regard. Gold and
silver, he said, were not and never
could be governmental money. They
were private money of the people, and
the government had no right to say,
whether they should be used or not.
established by statistics, carefully pre-
pared. and, if the ratio had changed,
this should be remedied by putting
enough more silver into the coin or re-
ducing the gold in the coin to equalize
the values.
III. B. Martin opposed bimetalism on
the ground that there was not enough
gold and silver to go round. Statistics,
he said, showed that there was only 81
per capita in gold for the people of the
world, and that the amount of silver
only exceeded that of gold by slOO, ,OO0,-
600. Statistics also showed that only
per cent of the currency of the world
was actual currency. and the balance
was the credits Of the banks. He ar
| gned strongly against placing it in the
power OF the spectators in gold and
silver and the banks to contract the
currency.

MRS. HAEGLUND,s DIVORCE.
She Gets 1t at Last From Her
Husband.

The divorce case of Marie ]. Haeglund
against Carl j. Haeglund was decided
by Judge Canty yesterday. Mrs. Haeg-
lund was given the divorce and the
custody of the younger child, a girl.
The custody of the older child, boy,
was given to the husband Haeglund
was also ordered to pay 1854 at the rate
of $12 every three months, for the sup
port of the little girl, and $50 for Mrs.
Haeglund's attorneys fees.
Mrs. Haeglund brought suit on the
ground of cruelty. She charged that
her husband beat her often during the
past three years and once, when drunk,
Threatened to take her life with knife.
He brought a counter charge of mScon-
duct and asked for the divorce. She is
store clerk and thus earns her liveli-
hood He is an engraver and earns So 25
per day. She is twenty-five years of
age and he is thirty-one. The case ex-
cited considerable interest and at one
time it looked as though Haeglund
would get the divorce.

General Managers Troubles

An interesting petition for a writ of
Injunction was made before Judge
Lochren yesterday. George A. Baldwin,
general manager of the local branch of
the Northwestern Typewriter company,
located at 81 Fifth street south, asked
that an injunction restraining S. H. and
s. B. Vowel. "a. f. White and F. D.
Stratton, directors Of the company,
from interfering with the duties of his
position, be issued. Baldwin claimed
that the directors were making an effort
to turn the business over to Clark d
Mccarthy. He says he has the sole right
to handle the goods of the company he
represents in this city. He values this
privilege at $4,000 per year. He also
charges that S. III. Vowel has usurped
the powers delegated to him, and by so
doing has injured him greatly in many
ways. In the suit to follow Baldwin
Will ask to be recognized as manager in
deed as we'll as in name.

j. II. Murray Wants $4,000.

J. II. Murray has brought suit against
r. l.. Stillman, the well known at
torney, and others, to recover loan of
$4,000. The complaint states that
Murray loaned Stillman and others S1O.-
GOO on May l, 1885. to be repayed May
/, 1890. He took as security a war
ranty deed to lot II. in block /, of Rem
1ngton's addition, subject to mort
gage OF $1,000. When Stillman re-
paved the $4,000 the warranty deed
would be returned. Stillman, it seems,
mas not repayed, and Murray sues to
have the warranty deed made a mort
gage lien and foreclosed.

ing That He Was SWindled.
James Goodnow has brought suit
against S. j. Dickson to have trade of
real estate for a patent right set aside.
The complaint states that Goodnow
traded lots and 3, in block 8. of Gjert-
sens Lake Amelia addition; lot Z, in
block l. of G. l.. Parker's addition: a
triangular piece of property, bounded
by Western avenue. Dupont avenue and
Third street north, and his note for
$1,000 for the right to sell the Dickson
patent health bed rest in California,
Oregon, Washington, Montana. Idaho,
Nevada and Arizona. This deal was
made April Z, 1891. When the deal was
made Dickson guaranteed that the bed
rests were salable. and that there was
large demand for them everywhere.
AS a matter of fact, Goodnow alleges
the rests are of no value. He says
Dickson knew this. He brings suit for

THE reciprocity idea still contin-
ues to find favor among all and
brings profit to the country, as its
principle finds an ever widening APP
plication. Agreements have lately
been made between the United
States and the British colonies of
British Guiana, Jamaica, Barbados,
Trinidad and the Leeward Islands.
whereby in consideration of; the adj
mission into the United States of
coffee and sugar, their principal pro-
ducts, free Of duty, these colonies
will enlarge their free lists, so as to
include leading agricultural and
other products Of this country. Ac.
cording to statistics this group of
colonies received from the United
States a little over s1O,OOO,OOO
worth of our products, and in return
sent nearly s20,000,00O worth of
their ~procucts. The trade of these
colonies has principally, however,
been with Britain, not on account OF
natural advantages, but owing to
tradition, custom and prestige. Now
that the barriers of the tariffs have
been removed, cheapness OF ship
ment and convenience to our good
markets must naturally compel these
West India buyers and sellers to
look to the United States rather
than to Britain. 1t does not need
any argument to show that there is
a vast difference between reciprocity
and free trada. In this instance we
are dealing with a people whose
products are entirely different from
ours, we must have, at present, their
sugar and coffee, and at the same
time we have an open market for
our manufactured goods. With Can
ada it would be different; that coun-
try has nothing to offer, but what
we can produce ourselves, and 1t is
hard to see any advantage to this
country by throwing it open to them,
as they have nothing in return tc
give. Human nature is the same
the world over and it will re-
main so till the milleninms OF
Bellamy and George have come, and
all nations of the earth are brethren
in one great family. Our CONNER
cial relations will be dictated by the
sole policy Of how much we al give
away, when that time comes, but no
before. Now it is to study carefully
how much we can Get for what VIZ
have to give, and to cultivate in
innate relations with the highest bid
ders and largest buyers. When tn
subject is carefully examined it will
be seen that there is a vast differ
ence between the doctrines of rec.
procity andfree trade, notwithstand
ing the many who would have |
believe that the two are identical:

ores; it wants cheap reduction and
transportation faculties and it very
naturally looks to Great Falls fol
the II and the Great Northern for
the other. The latter can reach il
with a track from Neihart 40 or 4;
miles in length; the former has all
the fuel and power a score of the
largest mining camps in the state
can utilize. 1t will ultimately-be.
come the ore reducing and copper
refining center of the west.
Now is the time for the wide
awake, enterprising citizens of Great
Falls to bend their energies in direct
ing trade to this point and for the
Great Northern to add traffic to its
magnificent system of roads. 1t is a
purely business proposition. There
is no sentiment in it. A glance over
the situation will show there is
money to the road and money to the
people of Great Falls in the extern.
sion of the Neihart branch to Castle.
All should work together to accom-.
plish this end. Helena wants rail
road connection with Castle and
Livingston is striving for it. Great
Falls has the inside track-the right
of-way, as it We're, to the prize. Let
it not be snatched from her grasp.
Castle will give her capital vote to
the city that ONE to her doors with
the iron horse.-Tribune.

Noihart and Barker,

Since the advent of the iron horse
these campsare filled with new hopes,
new men and more plethoric purses.
New energy braces the will and new
strength nerves the arm that Yields
the pick and sledge; and new courage
loosens the purse strings of the
capitalist.
Heretofore the winters in these
camps have been seasons of compar-
ative rest and social enjoyments; but
this year the work goes bravely on.
Ores are taken out and shipped OF
placed upon the dump for future dis
position. High are the hopes and
great is the joy of the sturdy men
who have waited so long by the mine
on which they have staked theil
hopes and in which they had labored
so hard to show up their bidder
treasures. A little more labor and
little more waiting and their reward
shall surely eome.-Mining Review

Supreme Court.

The counsel for respondent in the
case of H. A. Milot, respondent, VS..
Jos. Reed, appellant, occupied the
time of the supreme court yester-
day in presenting arguments. This
is an appeal from the district court
Of Meagher county and involves an
interesting point Of law. 1t appears
that in September, 1890, Milot pur-
chased a property from Reed and re-
ceived guarantee deed therefor.
When the tax collector came around
Milot claimed that the taxes should
be paid by Reed, who was the owner
of the property at the time of the
assessment, and that III the deed
Reed had guaranteed the property
to be free from membranes. Reed
refused to pay the taxes and rather
than incur additional costs Milot
paid them. He brought suit against
Reed in the district court of Mea-
CHER county for the amount of the
taxes and costs, and was awarded a
Judgment. 1t was held by the court
below that at the time the property
was purchased by Milot, September
1890, the taxes had been assessed
against it for the year, and as al
taxes were assessed against whoever
owned the property on April /, ac'
cording to the law at that time Reec
was the man who should pay them
since on April l, 1890, he was the
owner Of the property. Reed ap.
pealed from the decision.-Helen:

THE KIND NOT WANTED.

We have been in receipt Of sew
eral communications lately from a
distance inquiring about the pros
poets of Neihart for business next
spring. These come from parties
with limited means, who wish to
open up for themselves. Only one
answer can be given to nearly all
such, Neihart, at present, has good
business men established in all lines
and there is no doubt that forthe time
being they will be able to attend
to the wants of the people. The re-
sources of Neihart are just being
developed, and only those who are
acquainted with the circumstances
know that this is a slow work. We
have the mines and every week is
demonstrating the fact that they are
numerous and will be lasting, but it
requires time and money to develop
mines, that have granite for their
foundation. Only a limited number
of men can be worked on a prospect.
Neihart needs to have her mines
more developed before there will be
a demand for more men in the city
to attend to their need. The fame
of our mines has spread throughout
the Union and we are threatened
with a town boom next spring. We
do not want it, and unless a party
has money enough to tide him over
till the time that our mines are more
fully developed, he had better seek
other fields. Too much competition
is bad and a man starting with limit
ed capitol is inclined to cut prices in
hopes of increasing his trade and in
the end becomes discouraged, leaves
the city and gives it a bad name.
There are plenty of such people who
are ever on the lookout for new
fields, and never settled anywhere.
We do not want them. What we dc
want is men with money, who will
invest in our mines, and help work
them. For all such there are grand
openings, and the sooner they are
taken advantage of the better, as
they are bound to attract attention
and will be taken up. The first in
the field will secure the best chances,
There is no question as to the future
of our mines and large returns 70,
the men who have the money, pluck
and stick-to -itiveness. All sucl
Neihart needs, but as for others
there is plenty of time, for them te
come here to open other business.
