is so very large that no one can well
have the hardihood to say that it is not
extortionate. One-ffth of the amount
would return good profit
The commissioners have had ample
time to act, and their delay is ineXcus-
able. If they labor under the impress
sion that the public has forgotten that
the matter is in their hands, they are
greatly in error. The people are watch
ing their course, and will hold them re-
sponslble for the present rates.
The railroads proved themselves the
masters of about every situation during
the late legislature, but the people may
some day come to the front and put all
end to their rule.
DANGEROUS SIDEWALKS.
A good many of the wooden sidewalks
in st. Paul are full Of holes and rotten
boards. Their condition is periious to
pedestrians, and the city is in constant
danger of having heavy damage suits to
settle. AT Louisville Monday PAULINE
MARKHAM stepped through hole in
the sidewalk and sustained a bad
fracture Of a leg. She must cancel all
her engagements of the season, and be
laid up long time. 1t will without
doubt cost Louisville more than 100000
10 settle the damages. ST Paul has sell
dom paid large damages in such cases;
but II IS 5irr7o,- ::'ssalt purely of luck. Some
person is likely at any time to step f..see
one of these holes who would be dam
aged many thousands of dollars by a
broken lee, all of which he could recover
from the city. These dangerous side
walks are many of them on Ninth aud
other streets which are much Travelled,
but poorly lighted at night. Worse than
the holes are the rotten boards, which
are likely to give way under the feet
of heavy person. Generally. pedeS-
trians see the holes, but they are seldom
able to discover the weakness Of boards.
1t seems a short-sighted economy to
permit these holes and defective boards
to remain. IL will cost little money to
patch and make safe all the walks, but
it would be we'll spent. Some of the
walks, no doubt. lie in front of property
which is bringing nothing to the owners,
and it would be something Of hardship
to require them to build new walks.
Besides, there is something of a question
as TO whether the city can order new
walks without petitions signed by the
majority of the owners of the property
on street front in block. If there is
no way to compel the owners to repair
the walks or bald new ones at once, the
city should proceed without delay to put
all in safe condition at its own expense.
Very few people would have broken
limb for all the money the city could be-
stow upon them; hence it is not alto
gether a money question. but one also
concerning the general welfare of the
npOnle.

government thousands of dollars worth
of property. Strange as it may seem,
up to the time Secretary Morton took
hold of the department of agriculture,
there had never been even an attempt
to make all inventory of the property of
the department. Desks. typewriters,
chairs, carpets and almost every article
of furniture bought by the government
for the agricultural department were
scattered all over the city. As soon as
Col. East saw the condition of affairs he
called the matter to the attention OF the
secretary, and suggested that search

THE DETROIT rs SWIFT.
Successful Test of the Speed OF the Ne

Successful Teat Of the Speed of the New
Cruiser.
New LONDON Conn, April S.-The new
United States cruiser Detroit made a Rlor-
ious record ON her trial trip today. II has
been a tedious wait. but IL has proved a
great advantage to the builders. The
weather was fne and tho water could hardly
have boon In better condition. The De-
troit atarted out at about S:l5 with the
naval board aboard, md 1880 was decided
upon MS the time for tho real stsrt. UP to
that time aho VIVA kept circlinc about In the
vicinity OF the starting point. When ahe
finally started the engines were kept vi
brating to their full capacity for a long
time. 1t required but 29A minutes to
reach the Bscle. which was anchored about
nine miles from the stR,t, and the center
stake boat was passed 3l.a6 minutes lator.
In IS. II minutes more she reached the
Blake, nine miles further on. and @.12
minutes later she had passed the boat Ut
tho end Of the ourse.
But SAG minutes we're occupied in turning
and coming again upon the course. The
run to the Blake was made in 27.37 minutes,
thence to the center stake boat in $3.50
minutes. The Bache was made in 1912
minutes. Next cnms the most exciting nine
miles OF the whole run. because II was the
fastest. There had been some shaking up
Of things on board before. but now the evil
dences OF speed wero multiplied and the
Detroit flew across the finish line in 20. 30
minutes after passing the last stake boat
at a speed Of slightly over twenty knots. or
upwards of twenty-three miles per hour.

PLANTING OF THE TREES.
Arbor Day Was Generally Observed In thu
Capital city.

Arbor Day Was Generally Observed In the
Capital city.
In obedience to to the custom established
by the state legislature, the people of Hell
ena generally observed Arbor Day. The
banks, county Offices and most OF the stores
were closed. while the principal feature OF
the day was furnished by the pupils of the
publio schools. At each OF the institutions
appropriate exc oises were had. At 1l:3O
O. NJ, the hour fxed for the planting, the
pupils came out of the schools in regular
order and marched to the grounds aud
formed in CIRCLES around the pits which had
been dug by the ~ianitors for the trees. and
sang Arbor Day songs. In some cases adj
dresses were delivered. The trees were
then planted and given names. One tree
at the central school grounds was named
Nebraska" in honor of the state that orig
mated Arbor Day. This finished the exer-
cises. Eighteen trees OF the mountain pop
lar and Balm of Gilead varieties were
planted by the pupils.
After the exc cises tho pupils were given
q half holiday and during the afternoon
visited the mountain slopes south of the
city accompanied by their teachers. One
l,arty of sixty made the ascent OF Mount
Helena.
