THE democrats who were trying to
make political capital out of the fact
that the fifty.second congress appropri-
ated nearly billion dollars for expenses
and dubbed it the billion dollar con-
gress," find themselves confronted by the
fact that the fitty-third congress has ex.
ceeded the appropriations of its prede-
cessors, and they are willing to accept
Secretary Fosters sententlous explana-
tion-this is billion dollar country.

A correspondent, who is himself for
eigner, writes the Journal that TN d GER
tain township in Otter Tail county the
following unqualified officers are holding
office: One Justice of the peace who can
neither read nor write the English Ian
guage; one constable who can neither
read nor write; one assessor wilp .an
neitherread write nor speak the English
language; one supervisor who can
neither read nor write; one treasurer
who can neither read nor write. Our
correspondent calls attention to the fact
that there is law, that a man cannot
act as Judge of election without heing
able to read and write Understandings
the English language. If this law rs
necessary. why should 1t not apply to
the town Offices, where the dn''es are
equally complex and imports he
also calls attention to the lat mat all
foreigners have an inherent desire TO
hold office and insist on putting their
fellow countrymen in in spite OF their
ignorance of the English language and
the duties which they have to perform,
If to read and write English was quail
ifcation to hold town office, II would
have very stimulating effect IN making
foreigners learn 70 reid and write En-
glIsh. Here is matter which our legis-
lature should take in hand.-l Fergus

The above state of affairs would be
grotesque, if it were not alarming, as in
dicating condition of affairs that

edy lies below and beyond statutory en-
actment defining the qualifications OF
petty officials 1t involves the qualification
OF safe citizenship. Minnesota has been
too lax Ill admission of aliens to full
participation IN political privileges.
Suffrage is too sacred to be granted to
those not qualified to receive it with in
telligence and patriotism. Full citizen
ship should be prerequisite to ballot,
and coupled with the element ofduration
of residence should be some wholesome
restrictions dependent upon intelligence.
As rule Americans esteem this right oil
suffrage too lightly.

ALTOONA pa, May 30.-Main's circus
was wrecked on the Pennsylvania road
this morning at Vail station. AS far as
can be learned, five were killed and ten
injured. The train jumped the track
going down the mountain, the engineer
losing control, at speed Of forty miles
an hour. Fourteen cars went over a
thirty-foot embankment. Most of the
animals were badly hurt; some escaped
to the woods, but they were recaptured.
The cars in which the camels and ele-
plants were broke down while on a
down grade, and the next moment he
train was running wild. Turning sharp
curve it jumped the track and lau1ed in
dreadful and complete wreck. Three
sleepers used by the performers remained
on the rails, otherwise the wreck was
complete.
Tonight the corrected list of the dead
who were taken from the debris is as fol-
lows: Frank Train, Treasurer and ticket
seller, from Indianapolis; j. Strayer of
Houtzdale, Pa. VIM. Mutterly of East
Liberty, Pa; VIM. Haverly of Tyrone,
and two bodies not yet identified. OF the
seriously injured two. William Evans
and Louis Champaign, are believed to be
fatally hurt. a number OF others were
slightly injured, but are able to proceed
on their journey. The animals were all
captured with the exception of leopard
and hyena, which are still at large.

SAN Francisco, May 3O.-The mile
coast bicycle record was shattered three
different times this afternoon. Walter
Foster was the first to cut the coast rec
ord heretofore held by D. L. Burke of
Los Angeles from 2:30 As to 2:29. This
was done i'll the handicap mile race in the
third heat. In the first heat Wilbur Ed
wards made the distance in 2:2S 2-5. This
mark did not stand very long. as in the
final heat Foster rode the mile in 2:28 I-5.
The annual meeting Of the Alameda
Bicycle Athletic Club, which was held
this afternoon at the Alameda grounds,
was brilliant success, at least 900 peo-
pie being scattered over the grounds
when the first race was called. Walter
Foster carried off the honors of the day,
with Wilbur Edwards very close Sec
ond.
Many new and good men came to the
front, among whom was Otto Ziegler of
San Jose, who won the mile handicap
from the sixty-yard mark in 2:26. The
Alameda track is four laps to the mile,
and is made of hard dirt.
The first event on the programme was
the two-mile L. y. w. championship. 1t
was divided into two heats, owing to the
large field of starters. The first heat was
won by Edwards in 5:343, Wells second,
Terrill third. The second heat was won
by Foster in 5:45, Dexter second. The
1inal heat was won by Foster in 5:37 3-5,
Wells second. During the heat Edwards

some twelve miles, from Michigan ave-

Pullman, was contested to-day by some
hundred bicycle riders, including many
men whose fame is national. The race
was handicap, the starters being penal
lied according to their known perform
ances, with the view to giving everybody
fair chance win the race. The day and
weather were perfect, and it was merry
spin. The winner of the race is NJ. Nell
son of the Columbia Club, who had six
minutes handicap, and who covered the
distance in 55A minutes. He was the
actual winner Of the race, but the chief
interest to the cyclist centers in the time
winner, that is, the man who covered the
distance in the shortest time, regardless
of handicap. To determine who this
man is required much figuring by the
judges, who finally awarded the prizes as
follows: First, NJ. Nessel, Columbia
Wheelmen, time. 55:17; second, NJ. Mel
