true, an pity tits It's true. Toms gone

protection to silver lii indiSsoluble un-

misery; we, too, have seen our idols
shattered. We have seen our own strong
men going off after protection and try
ing to pull Democracy after them. We
have pleaded with them and stormed at
them, but they have ears only for the
flute of the pied piper CT protection.
And now Tom of Maine turns his back
on the sweet counsels of the Pioneer
Press, and goes troeping off after the
players On the silver lutte. entranced by
its beguillng notes, leaving our contem-
porary in sadness aud as forlorn as the

if let alone, will come home wagging its
tail behind it. 1t stormed and raved
when Piper Mckinley tuned up his flute
and the whole party traipsed off after

Tom knows that it will dO.so again, and
after awhile will proclaim the virtue of

and the wonders of protection. All the
same. and while its sorrow lasts, We
assure it of our profound sympathy.

electricity which rapidly melts the ore

The lining is an efficient insulator, and
no carbon electrodes are used. The.
fused metal runs from the furnace into

the freedom OF the metal from carbon,

A NEW FUTURE FOR IRON.

Within a few years Minnesota has
sprung into one of the great iron-pro-
ducing states of the Union. Already4it
produces One-seventh of the Bessemer
ore of the country, and its capacity is
only at the Threshold of development.
But we have done little more than pro-
duce the ore, and the more important
work of Transforming it into iron aud.
steel is done at points far distant. Nat
ure, less kind to US than to the South,
has put with the ore no great deposits
of coal, and in the economy of manu-
faeture it is found to be cheaper to
carry the ore to the coal than the coal
to the iron.
And we see the ore taken out and
carried to the lake, and thence shipped
10y vessel to the furnaces of Ohio and
Pennsylvania. Could the ore be con-
verted into iron at Duluth. there would
at once come into existence the great
plants for producing pig and rails and
structural steel to supply the demand
in all the great West. Water commune
cation, giving cheap freights, would
make all the lake ports markets for the
products of the mills, and the ample
rail communication would carry them
directly into the interior. The magma
ton can hardly grasp the possibilities
of our city at the head Of the lake if the
deficiency OF fuel can be supplied
cheaply.-
And this German inventor has fur
nisned. He has made electricity do the
work of coal. He melts iron under the
heat of an electric current more cheapIy
and quicker than it can be done with
coal. Our consul at Frankfurt. in Ger
many, reports to the state department a
description of the invention and its
work. Into an alright furnace, lined

HONOR TO WHOM HONOR is
DIE

DUE.
The GLOBE has not the slightest de-
sire to detract from all legitimate honor
due Mr.. Wheelock, president Of the
park board, in connection with the
splendid park at Como. which,
i'll a sense, was dedicated anew
to the public yesterday. Mr.. Wheeloek
has for the past two years been presi-
dent OF the park board, and in that
position has rendered good and efficient
public service III developing the park.
for which he is entitled to much credit,
and the GLOBE accords him, with pleas
ure, all which is his due.
But Como park has not been made III
the past two years, and however active
man may have been in adding to the
development of splendid pleasure
ground. the gentlemen who laid the
foundation, and began the work of
beautifying the natural advantages of
the site. should not be forgotten.
The park was purchased twenty-one
years ago. and the securing it was due to
the efforts of the late Horace Thomp-
son. then at the head of the
First National bank, and ex-Gov.
William X. Marshall. But for their
efforts the beautiful tract of land, now
the pride of the city, would not have
been obtained, and the division OF the
property Into small ownerships would
have rendered the securing of it at a
later. day impossible.
Even after it was secured there was
So much diversity of opinion as to the
wisdom of the expenditure that the
movement nearly came 10 naught. A
peEai institution, which is today Its
only blemish. Was located on the tract,
and, as matter of diversion, the land
was one year rented for COW pasture.
Mr.. Wheelock did not rescue the park
from this state of disgrace, but the first
board of ten years ago, composed of
Judge Greenleaf Clark, W. A. Van
Slyke, John ID. Ludden. Stanford New
Ell, DR.. K. Schitfman and DR.. Wedge,
took the first steps for its redemption.
Inc park was laid out by j d. Ester
brook. uperinteEdeht, and City Enei-
neer Rundlett. and the work of the past
three years has simply been the con-
summation of plans of former boards.
ii. +. Stevens and Homer c. EIler,
who also served Oh former boards, were
active in its advancement and improve
ment, and are deserving of recognition.
The one man, above all others, to
whom the city is indebted for the i'm
provements in the park, is W. A. Van
Slyke, who gave his time and in fluence,
persistently and unstiDtedly to its de-
yelopment. The condition of the park
today is the fruition of Mr.. Van Sykes
unselfish and public spirited labor.
During Mayor Wright's administra-
ton the water supply, the pavilion and
other valuable improvements have been
made. but they were additions, and only
made possible by what predecessors had
done.
The GLoRE records these facts as
matter of justice, and that history may
be properly made. 1t is matter of re-
greet that these gentlemen. and especially
Mr.. Van Slyke, should have been for
gotten in yesterdays encomiums, and it
is due that the public should have this
information.
Give Mr.. Wheelock his share of the
praise, but his laurel wreath should
not obscure the memory of those who
bore the heat and burden of the day.
