A SPECIAL COMPLIMENT TO SENAT
WHITE.

For q young senator the Hon. Ste.
treated to marked distinction. There
have been few men who hsvs ever fig
ured in congress from this coast who
made a more brilliant mark at the
outset Of their Washington career than
Our Steve" There have bsen, of
course, circumstances that have hel ped
Mr.. White to this prominence. One of
them is, OF course, the fact that he is
just now the only Democratic senator
west OF the Missouri river. That of itself
notice OF his party associates; but. in
addition, he has shown extraordinary
capacities for work. His attitude on
the late Chinese treaty has been the
subject for much invidious criticism
in California and on the Pacific coast,
but in Washington the California sem
ator stands high. Aa a rough and ready
worker he is known to have no superior
in any party, and his fearless and inde.
pendent attitude on the silver issue,
UaChOQ W u tpoOOu az .luthUly
eloquent and effective, gave him assured
standing from the start. His being
placed on the senate committee on
finance was notable compliment to 80
young a senator. Perhaps the circum.
stances surrounding his elevation could
not be better explained than in the
words OF O'Brien Moore, the noted Wash.
ington correspondent OF the ST. Louis
Republic:
The selection of Senator White OF
California today for q membership on
the finance committee was an act that
conferred very unusual distinction on
that young senator. 1t is very rare that
a senator is placed ON the finance COM
mittee during his first term OF service.
When Mr.. Carlisle was transplanted
from the house to the senate he was
placed on the finance com mittee TO fil
the vacancy caused by the death OF Mr..
Beck, whom he succeeded in the SENATE,
bat Mr.. Carlisle ad been for eix years
speaker OF the house OF representatives,
was a statesman of national distinction,
and had the reputation of being the
Dest-posted man in the Democratic party
on the tariff question.
Such distinction in Mr.. Carlisle's case
was not extraordinary. Mr.. White only

March, 1899, and he is under 40 years Of
age. He has been a member OF the
committee on commerce, one OF the
most important committees in the san.
ate, during the present congress and
chairman of the committee on irrigs-
tion. Tho placing OF him on the
finance committee is, therefore. not
only unusual, but very great compli-
msnt.
In these days, when it is difficult TO
say anything good about the senate. it
is a pleasure to observe that the selec-
ton of MIR. White for distinction re-
flected credit on the senate as well as
upon the able, forceiul and brilliant
Californian. The chief reason for Mr.
Whites election is that he is reliable
friend of silver. He voted against the
repeal OF the purchasing clause of the
Sherman law snd is in favor of the free
coinage OF silver. 1t was deemed expe-
dent by the Democrats to select q
northern man for membership OF the
finance committee, as Mr.. Mills, now
the foremost tariff reformer in congress,
refused to accept the place.
Mr.. Mills declined to 60 on the COM
mittee because he felt it would place
him in an embarrassing position. While
acting temporarily on the finance com.
mittee in the spring and early summer.
he sized up the temper OF that body and
satisfied himself that no genuine tariff
legislation could either come from the
committee or from the senate. Subse-
quent events confirm the soundness of
his judgment, and so he declined to
serve on that committee. Senator
Villas, very capable man, is OPP
posed to the free coinage, and so
is Senator Gray. Mr.. White was
the only man at once reliable as tariff
reiormer and as free coinage man.
Hence he was selected. White ia an
able debater and a sound Demo ocrat, and
may be relied upon to discharge his full
duty, and represent the advance ssnti-
ment of his party. No better selection
could have been made.

AT WHITE BEAR.
Sports, Picnics and Celebrations
Everywhere.


At White Bear the day of patriotism
opened with a roar, brought with it
horde of roarers and closed in an up
roar. The day dawned bright and clear
and still, which brought joy to the null
htude and pleasure to the yachtsmen.
After 9 O'Clock in the forenoon hourly

lessness. rolled increasingly into

bright and rosy maidens, gay and joyous
youths, romping children, all bent on
enjoying to the utmost every minute of
the day. In the forenoon the crowd
was not so noticeable, but after O'Clock
1t became oppressive; the shores of the
lake seemed literally packed with peo-
pie.
At Wildwood the electric lines
brought out hundreds. They overflowed
the grounds, swarmed out to Mahtomed1
and in all other directions. The steam
er ran from shore to shore increasingly.
peanut stands were there in abundance,
the balloon men were out in force, and
cane racks were here, there
and everywhere; rowboats could
hardly be had at any price,
but with all that the scene was incom-
plete, for the sandwich man was con.
Spicuous by his absence. At the pa.
vilion the crowd flowed unrestrainedly
over everything. They filled the
groves, lined the docks, crowded the
verandas and took possession Of the
entire building. Seibert's orchestra
played afternoon and evening. The
dance hall was rainbow in colors.
AT White Bear village the citizen,
had an old-time hurrah. The White
Bear band played at Railroad parl
from noon until far into the night. Casl
prizes were hung up for the differen
sporting events, which included

read by Gen. John b. Sanborn, of ST.
Paul, and the orator OF the day was
Hon. ID. W. Lawler, OF st. Paul.
st. NJ ry's of the Lake church gave
picnic at a grove near the park, and
many people went there to enjoy Il few
idle moments in shady spot.
At the Williams house grounds the
Pickle club held its annual outing, and
the different events drew large crowds.
The ball game between Pickle Club
No. and Pickle Club No. 2 was won by
the former. score IL 10 5. UmpireS,C. ID.
O'Brien Jr and Judge HutsGn. After
the game was over the guests repaired
to small platform ih the yard, where
the Declaration of independence was
read by Treat Spear. Late In the aft
ernoon they had quoting contest, and
just before shutdown they held their
boat races on the lake.
Lake shore was thronged with sight
seers. and many Of the visitors attended
the ball game at Ramaley Park, between
the st. Paul High School club and The
Saltwater club; others took advantage
OF the toboggan slide and enjoyed a
good swim. STEMS great union band
was stationed on the piazza and they
had many hearers.
At Mahtomsdi. the boys brigade of
the House of Hope church picnicked,
and the Sunday school of the First NJ.
K. church also picuicked there.
At Dellwood an unusually large num-
Der were gathered. all the club members
being present with many of their
friends. About O'clock the regatta
was held, and in the evening the meln-
beers and their friends had an informal
hop.
At Cottagewood the hre works dis
play was far superior to all others. and
was gotten up on gorgeous scale.
The day passed of without an acct.
dent. The crowd, which had contin-
ued increasing all day, seemed to want
10 go home OH one train,
and the consequence was that
those who did not take
their stand at the station at about
O'clock in the afternoon spent the
greater part of the night in being nearly
crushed to death at the stations. 1t was

stopped the flow of blood and ordered
the boy 10 be taken to the city hospital.
Henry f. Berry is liable not to live
through the day. Berry, who lives on
Dayton's bluff, was charging can
with gunpowder and firing it, as sa-
lutte to the nations birthday. AS the
can failed TO explode on time he started
to investigate the cause when it went
off suddenly. Berry sustained a severe
fracture of the skull and serious burnS
about the face. DIR. Paxton was sum-
moned to attend him. Late last night
he could not give an encouraging report
concerning his patent.
FIRES OF THE FOURTH.
The fire department received its
usual Fourth of July allowance OF bus i
ness. Several alarms were turned in
during the day, but luckily in neither
case did the fire amount to anything.
The first call came early in the day,
and was caused by the explosion of a
coal oil stove In the house of Thos.
Mi,cheru, $50 Burr street.
The next call came from Crocus Hill,
and was the first fireworks affair of the
day. G. q. tombstone had stored a
quantity Of fireworks i'll a closet of his
house. From some unknown cause the
entire package exploded at once. setting
fire to the premises. The blaze was
soon eXtinguished by the department
before serious damage had occurred.

burning of some rubbish piles. Both

a barn belonging to Mrs. Capt. Bre-
settle was discovered in flames. A sky.
rocket had entered through window of
the hayloft and set fire to the hay
stored there. No one was at home
at that time. and the flames spread rap
idly so that by the time the apparatus
arrived, nothing could be done except
TO save the residence near by. The
barn, together with three valuable
horses, carriages and other contents
was totally destroyed, involving loss
of IS. 600.
