THE MINERS, HOSPITAL.
An Itemized Statement of what the
Institution Needs.

An Itemized Statement of what the
Institution Needs.
The Board Of Trustees Of the Miners Hos
pital at Fountain Springs has prepared an
itemized statement showing the amount Of
appropriation that will be required of the
Legislature for the maintenance Of this in
stitution.
When granting appropriations heretofore
the Legislature has used the pruning knife
with discouraging effect Every item has
been scruunized, revised, twisted cut down,
patched and otherwise treated SO as to al
most destroy its original identity; and when
at last the appropriation has been turned
over it has been found barely sufficient and
with no provision for improvements to the
grounds or buildings, or additional comfort
for the patients 1t is hoped the action Of
the Legislature win be nearer tine mark this
year, and there is some ground for the hope,
as last week q Legislative committee visited
the institution and the officials had an OPP
pormnity to personally lay the claims before
it. The members of the committee went
through all the buildings from cellars
t1 roofs and II is said that they were impressed
with the rcasouablcness of many requests
which have heretofore met with rejection at
the hands of the Legislators. One Of the oft
rejected Improvements asked for has been
the construction of a covered passage way at
the entrance to the wing into which the in
.iured are taken from the ambulances. This
has heretofore been looked upon as a hobby
of some Of the officials Fortunately when
the committee visited the institution last
week the day was stormy and the rain was
pouring in torrents when the officials ex-
planned to the members the inhumanity Of
carrying the injured through such storms
from the ambuiances. The officials believe,
from what some members of the committee
said, that an archway will be constructed at
the wing this year.
The itemized request for an appropriation
is as follows: Maintenance for the year
commencing June lst, 1893, $4,000. Main
tenance for the year commencing June 1st
1894 $4,000 For dining room for con
valcscent patients, enlarging kitchen and
dormitories for domestics and female nurses
and furnishing the same, $1,000, For eXten
sion to corridor 10 bring patients in under
cover and for operating aud waiting rooms
and furnishing the same $500. For grad
ing and planting grounds 1893 $500. Same
for 1894, $500. For leveling and cemening
cellar floors, 81 OOO For repairing and
repainting tin roofs and external wood work.
porches and fencing, pointing stone walls,
renewing spoutings and general repairs and
renewals, y, 500. For horses for ambulance
TO railroad station and to work on grounds,
repairs and renewal of horses, ambulance,
&c, $500. For furniture, beds, bedding and
repairs and renewals of same, $4,000. For
kitchen utensils, repairs of range, &c, $500.
For insurance for 1893 and 1884,, 5000. For
general repairs to heat, water and gas pipes,
laundry, machinery, boilers, &c, $500 For
debt incurred ON repairs to boilers and
laundry machinery, Sl3795 Water and
light, $1,000. Total, SSS, ,337. .95.

POwderly is Bold.

The head of the Knights of Labor
does not mince his words. He saws
that treaty that is founded on
commercial interests, while flesh and
blood are subject to knOut and
scourge, to cholera and death,
is DAMNED AND OUGHT TO BE-
No recognition should be accorded
the car by the people of the United
States until his government shall
imbibe some of the instincts of hui
manity. The United States should
deal with men and not with mon
sters, and the ruler who looks calmly
on while thousands of his subjects
are marched, with naked feet,
through leagues of snow for no other
crime than an act for which Amer
leans glOrify George Washington, is
monster. His life is worthless to
humanity. He treats men like rep
tiles, and deserves the fate of a rep
tile. Mr.. Powderly takes the ground
that there is no law that gives to
either the state or the president the
RIGHT TO MAKE LAWS IN SECRET.
1t is not to be endured, he says. that
sixty men in secret should make a
treaty with the most hated ruler of
the earth, and that 65,OOO,OOO free
men, thinkers, self-agents, men and
women, should be expected to obey
it's provisions. 1t was made with a
tyrant who starves his subjects, who
rides over virtue, honor, manhood
and freedom, and it should not, will
not, be obeyed when test is made.

two large brick buildings, extending
from street to street, were built on
the land. The ground rent paid by the
owners of the buildings, who must
also pay taxes on the building, doubt
less amounts to several thousand
dollars year. Now we wish to ask a
few questions which we should be
pleased to have some of our metropol-
itan contemporaries answer.
1st. AS this property is exceeding
ly valuable, What, if anything, has
the owner done to give it that value !?
I'd. If, as is undoubtedly the case,
the owner has done nothing, but the
people have, by improving surround
ing property, given it whatever value
it has, then why should the owner be
paid a valuable consideration for
nothing, or for what other people
have done?
Sd. If the community has given
the property all the value it has, why
should not the community, and not
the individual, receive the rent?
4th. What moral Justification can
you find for the owner, who will not
or does not occupy the land himself
nor permit others to do so unless they
pay him annual tribute for the pri-
vilege?

Mr.. John Burke filed inforpation
with Gov. Nelson last Saturday alleg-
ing that Public Examiner Kenyon had
been guilty Of malfeasance and stat
ing that it was his belief that Ken
yon had been unduly Influenced in
reporting as solvent the Guaranty
Loan Co., of Minneapolis, after infOr-
nation had been filed with him citing
the book and page of the public re-
cord that contained alleged evidence
of the insolvency of the concern. On
Monday Kenyon saw Mr.. Burke on
the opposite side of the street, called
him over and without ceremony
struch him in the face before the
police could interfere.
What becomes of your American
citizenship when public official can
not be charged with malfaesance in
office?
What will the public think of an
official who vindicates his character
by starting brawl instead of invit-
ing the fullest investigation?

CDR" Fish afflrms that he picked
Mr.. Donnelly out of total obscurity
and made a man of him. The asser-
tion is so absurbly egotistical as to
be funny. The doctor got pretty
much his whole character into that
assertion. Mr.. Donnelly was at that
time, as now, one of the most prom
inent men in the northwest. He
was state lecturer of the state farm
ers alliance, his name was familiar in
literary circles wherever the English
language is spoken, he had been
Lieutenant Governor for four years
and member of congress for six years,
long before Fish ever crossed the
boundary line of Minnesota. And now
Fish says he "made Donnelly." A
bot-fy might just as we'll claim that
he had laid an ostrich egg. He
wouldn't be able to produce anything
but bots.

Our Forum for next week will con-
tain number of important papers
by able writer's which will make that
number one of unusual interest to
the public. Mr.. r. J. Hall will dis
cuss the new warehouse and elevator
law, better known by the name it ac-
quired in the Legislature, ''the govern
Or'S bill''; this paper is in reply to
the article in defense of the bill from
the pen of Hon. John Zelch, which
appeared in the last number of the

Hon. w. II. Standish, attorney gen
eral of North Dakota, will begin a
series of papers on the aspect of the
new revolution, the Introductory
chapter of which appears in our cor
respOndence this week under the
caption "Prejudice." Ex-Congress-
man Macdonald, of St. Paul, will con-
tinue the discussion of the silver
question with the editor of the St.

Among the attractions which will
appear in our issue of June will be
the third number in the series of pa.
pers by Attorney General Standish,
a very able presentation of "Single

an important paper by Hon. P. M

subject of Miners Wages, discus

most valuable contributions yet made
to the literature of this subject, will
be continued in both numbers.
There will also be other contribu-
tions, notably one from Hon. Swan
