most fertile in the world. All that is
needed is to open the closed waterways
to avoid. destructive overfiows, and to
drain lands. The Minnesota side of the
valley covers six OF the largest counties
in the state. By careful figuring 1t is
ascertaIned that the damage to crops
by the overllOws of 1892 exceeded
$4,000 900. OF the vast area in these
counties owned by the state 10000
acres must be drained to make them
available for farms. If drained, this
whole area would be as good farming
land as there is in the state. IL could
be sold for an average of $40 an acre;
but if sold at So the state would gain
$780, 200.
These closed waterways belong to The
state, hence their condition is no con-
Germ of The general government. Open
ing them is not lii the interests of any
ones fam, but for the general interests
of the valley. With them opened navi-
cation in the Red river will be greatly
improved.

THE LOBBy AT WORK.

The senate resolution for the investi-
CATION of the pine land frauds is now
before the house, and, as expected, pow
erful influences are working to defeat
it. 1t was not to be supposed that the
men who have made their millions out
of robbing the state and government
would tamely submit to the passage OF
the measure. They would gladly make
every member of the house rich rather
than TO see the resolution go through.
The honesty alone OF the representa-
tives will protect the state, and afford it
an opportunity to bring tie rascals TO
justice.
If the people of the state were in need
of further evidence to convince them
that the report of the KELLER commit
tee is founded upon fact and not de-
sire to make political capital, the tre-
mendous effort to defeat the measure in
the house would supply the deficiency.
If these men are innocent they would
step to the front and demand that the
house concur in the resolution, so that
they may have the fullest investigation
and be acqui ted of the terrible charges.
1t will not do for them to hide behind
their personal prominence and declare
that the investigation will be so eX-
pensiVe that the state should not engage
in it. That will not down with the
people. The people have long believed
that these men were engaged in robbing

report, after taking the evidence OF
many credible witnesses. they will be

that corruption is the toy of many men

ing is no longer a shield against gen.
eral suspicion that he does not lead a
just life. and enjoys ill-gotten gain.
The fair name of Minnesota must be
redeemed from this scandal. Every
member of the house who votes against
the resolution will sink into political
oblivion. There is an indication that
some OF the Republican members of the
house fear thatif the investigation were
made, and the parties found guilty, it
would result in the loss of the state to
the party. The Republicans would be
in far greater danger of losing the state
through the failure of the resolution to
pass the house.
Many of the Republican papers of
the state are demanding in the strong

AN ORDINANCE NEEDED.

An ordinance should be adopted COM
polling owners of houses to make sewer
connections within one year after a
sewer is built within reach of them. In
the central residence portions CT the
city only 5,700 houses have sewer con-
naetions. fhis is about one-third of the
houses which are on the line of
sewers. The records of the health de-
partment show that nine-tenths of the
ZymOtic and contagious diseases arise in
residences which have no sewer connec-
tions. The large majority of the houses
which have no connections are tene-
ments. The owners Oficheap tenement
property, with few exceptions, decline
to make the improvement. Laborers
and the poor who cannot afford to pay
high rents are forced to occupy these
death traps. The expense of putting in
a sewer connection is seldom more than
$500, but the most OF the owners of
these cheap houses will never put the
connections in unless forced to do so by
ordinance.
The interests of humanity demand
that these people who must live in such
houses shall be projected by sewer priv
ileges. More than that; it is question
which concerns the city at large. Diph-
liberia is likely to break out at any time
in one of these houses, and spread to
families which have the best of sewer
connections. Cholera would find most
congenial quarters in the majority of
these places.
Very few families living in their own
houses on the line of sewers are without
connections. The ordinance is needed
to compel landlords whose only desire
Is to get rentals with the least possible
outlay to make the connections. 1t is a
grave matter, and the ordinance should
be passed at once.

RICHARDSON ALSO DENIES.
Now, Who Wrote the Famous Cir
cuIaP?


Whatever may be the sentiment of the
rank and file of the Republican party in
this city relative to the Wright admin
istration. it is very apparent that he is
not without warm friends and support
ers. Among these friends may be found
substantial men of business who take
an active part in politics, and these are
not slow to assert that the reform adj
ministratlon is doing very well lin fact,
as we'll as was expected. Many of
the party workers urge the contrary,
and are organizing against his honor in
the hopes of overthrowing his dynasty
a power which they claim is welded
without due appreciation and regard for
the men who helped to win the victory
of last spring. The supporters of the
mayor say, on the other hand, that it is
the Republican party that is out of
joint, and has not come up TO the stand
ard with the rally that the administra-
ton should reasonably expect.

the contrary thinks il has been very

SILVER JUBILEE.

Twenty-Five Years Old.

House of the Good Shepherd
Twenty-Five Years Old.
One of the most successful of the
MANY good and deserving of the charities
that crown the city like haloe Of ligh
that refuge for erring girls known as
the House of the Good Shepherd, built
by and under the control of the Sisters
of the Good Shepherd. 1t will soon be
twenty-five years since the order was
first established in st. Paul. A quarter
of century of good work it has known.
1t is home for young girls of any
nationality or any creed, who for any
reason or by any means have left the
straight road of good life and are
'astray," as we say in our i'm
perfect speech. These girls are
young, and there is chance
that by the aid of kindly hand they
may live down the wrong and become
good women. This aid these sisters are
vowed to give. The house is large
one, built in the midst of beautiful
grounds, out from the rush and crowd
of the city, where loving Mother Nature
can minister to weary mind and sin-sick
body at the same time. On account of
extensive improvements the sisters are
now laboring under debt that they
are most anxious to clear off. For this
purpose. and to add to the pleasure and
satisfaction of the silver jubilee
to be held on May II, 1898. con-
cert is planned to be given ON
May 2, at the Metropolitan opera
house. Tom Karl. of the Boston Opera
company, has written to offer his serv-
ices, and those of Nine. Camille De
Arville, Miss Flora Finlayson, Daniel
Colville, the popular baritone, the Men,
delsohn Quartette, Claud Madden, and
ented artists will participate. What
ever company shall be playing at Min
neapolis at that time will send their
stars to assist this worthy charity. This
will be the first Of a series of concerts
under the same auspices, and hereafter
they will be one Of the annual features
of st. Paul society.

a grab at the fob chain OF the old gem

head which would have stopped the
train as quickly as it would have any

glared at the little fellow for moment
and, then resumed his reading.
Then the boy made another grab at
the chain with howl for the watch.
Some of the passengers looked aston
ished at the actions of the child, and
wondered, with pardonable curiosity,
why the mother did not interfere. She
was busy chatting with some leighbors
or acquaintance and paid no attention
to the child. At the second assault
upon his comfort and his watch, at the
same time the old gentleman gruffiy
told him to get away and not bother

the owner of the promising youth, who
showed signs OF leaking about the eyes.

glare which denoted his sincerity.

passengers felt like shaking hands with

Comes to all dreamy hour
Freedom from the tempters power;
To the heart surcease from sorrow,
Thoughts alone of joyous morrow;
Lists the mind to memory's backward call
And a sadness falls Ger all.
Grand and glorious the communion,
Human heart and natures union;
Bond of strength, of hope, of love,
Binds the mortal to God above,
Lays bare the secrets of caverns deep,
For none from God can his secret keep;
The spirit, to men upheld with chiseled
pride,
Within is Hpresence is put aside.
Is all oblivion present vile,
For we are lost in Afterwhile.
Pleasing thoughts OF future living,
No buried hate, but all forgivlng;
OF the wrongs that will then be righted,
Of the promises kept now plIghted,
OF the good we then will do.
How to others and ourselves be true.
To thus live we would endeavor
II thoughts like these might last forever.
Yet kind the hour
That gives the power
To free the heart from guilty stain
And for moment be pure again.
To wander forth meath heavens dome,
And in His temple all alone,
Slowly treadiDg aisle by aisle.
To think and dream of Afterwhile.
