CURB AND CORRIDOR,

There was quite a gathering of not
ables from North Dakota yesterday at
the Merchants. They came for no pre-
concerted scheme or by any prear-
ranged plan, but just happened into
town, as they often do at this time of
the year. Col. Plummer, who now re-
sides here, was rather pleased to see
his old time friends about him. Not
the least conspicuous figure in the num-
Der was Jud La Moure, who has per-
haps cut as wide, a swath politically
as any other man in Central North
Dakota. Another we'll remembered
man in the crowd was Alex Mckenzie,
who swung" the western portion of
his state into line in many a campaign.
And by the way, he did not stop at so
small matter as state lines, but on a
recent and important occasion crossed
the border into Montana and took a
hand in the unpleasantness arising out
of the capital fight in that state. Two
of the trio here mentioned were very
strong political generals in that event
and Mckenzie did no little to fight the
battle for the Northern Pacific and for
himself as we'll, and had the salts
faction of seeing the Anaconda COM
pany defeated.
But the former antagonists have
buried the Ratchet and were content to
sit at the same dinner table where
these old-time "reminiscences were dis
cuSsed in good spirit. The talk drifted
to crops and prospects and the general
sentiment expressed by all is summed
up in these words: 1.-The harvest of
this year promises to exceed the prodi-
gal one of 1891. There is remarkable
stand of grain, but there is cause for
anxiety in the scarcity of men and
threshing machines to properly take
care of the abundance We do not
want a repetition of 1891, when hun
dreds of acres of splendid wheat, oats
and other grains went to waste on &C.
count of wet weather, farmers hoping
and expecting that it would be all
| right anyway. But hundreds were dis
appointed and suffered great loss. Eff
forts must be made early to get harvest
hands into the state or else we will
lose a good share of the crop"
Major Burke, of Helena, was also
one of the party of Northwesterners
who Joined the others at dinner The
major has resided in the West for many
years, and has had his ups and downs
with the rest of the people, but he still
clings to Montana in the firm belief
that all will be we'll in the long run.
They report increased activity in var
ious directions and the resumption of
building operations in Helena and
many other cities of that state.

POOR POLICY.

We are of the opinion that the city
will be a loser if the policy an
nounced by the committee on ways
and means in case of suits for dam
ages is adhered to. A number of
members of the council have de-
clared that all such suits should be
fought to a finish. In the past it
has been customary for the corpora
ton attorney to examine into the cir
cumStanceS, and, where injuries
have actually been received, to come
to an understanding with the attor
neys of the aggrieved party,
if possible. and make a set
tlement by the payment of
a reasonable amount. There can
be no doubt that this course of pro-
cedure has saved large sums Of
money to the city in the long run.
Suits of this character are arising
constantly. People are being in
jured, or allege that they are, every
week by reason of defective side
walks, uncovered street excavations,
or some other circumstance for which
they can hold the city responsible.
They thereupon bring suit for the
largest amount which they think
they could possibly recover under the
most favorable circumstances. When
it comes to trial, they are generally
willing to compromise for fraction
of the sum claimed.
Now if all such cases are to be
fought out in the courts, the claims
for the full amounts asked will
be presented to and passed upon by
a jury. We know what usually
happens in such cases. Some jury
men are in favor of giving only a
small amount, and others of going to
the limit, and their verdict is usual
ly mathematical average of their
several opinions With the sympa-
thy which a person who is entitled
to any damages at all can usually
count upon, the draft upon the pub
lie treasury is sure to be large one.
On the other hand, when the attor-
neys settle these matters by them
selves, each has an incentive to ar
rive at justice in avoiding the labor
and uncertain issue of trial Be
fore they ultimately agree to dis
agree, one is pretty sure to offer the
maximum that he believes to be
due, and the other to agree to be
satisfied with the minimum that he
thinks justice requires. A compro-
mise is then frequently effected, and
the complainant is spared large at
torney fees, and the city is saved
from expensive litigation. We can
not see that it is in the public in
terest to have all these cases brought
into court; and the indications are
that such policy will result in sad
ding upon the city much larger
bill for damages annually than it
has heretofore had to pay.

. POSITIVE STATEMENT.

The public is obviously not yet in
alone would explain either the past
or the present status Of the plan
to reorganize the Northern Pacific.
That the property will be reorgan-
lied is no news, but a plain neces-
sity. That this reorganization must
be brought about by the consent and
ity-holders is another plain PROPOSE
ton. But exactly what has been
or is to be the relation to this
change of Mr.. Hill or of the Great
Northern is matter for speculation
to all except those on the inside.
And they know eXcellently how to
keep their own counsel. In the alb
sence of other information on the
subject, the following positive state
ment made by Bradstreet's, in the
first article of its editorial page, is
not without significance:
The announcement on Wednesday
that the reorganization of the North
ern Pacific Railroad company on the
lines laid down by the Adams commit
tee could not be carried out because of
certain provisions of the laws of the
state of Minnesota was received with
some surprise, but it was explained
that the proposed guarantee of the
Northern Pacific bonds by the Great
Northern company would conflict with
the laws of the state named, and that
counsel of thereorganization committee
and of others in interest are agreed
that such is the case. The stories pub
lished concerning the opposition of MIR.
Morgan to the plan proposed by the
Adams committee excited interest
mainly because of their ingenuity. that
gentleman denying he was opposed to
the arrangement previously contem-
plated by the reorganization commit
tee. Just why so many newspapers
have assumed to announce the antag-
onism Of Mr.. Morgan and of the Great
Northern to the Adams plan is difficult
to explain, except on the ground that
such statements are put forward by OPP
ponents of the reorganization commit
tee. 1t will interest newspapers, as
well as others in search of facts, to
know that the statement made, public
as to the reason why Nerthern Pacific
could not be reorganized as contem-
plated is correct. 1t will be still more
interesting to learn that counsel of all
parties in interest are engaged in de-
vising another method of carrying out
a substantially similar plan of reor-
ganization, and that the reorganiZat ton
committee and the; bankers interested
are working in complete harmony to
that end.
1t is the almost unbroken custom
of Bradstreets to deal with the
events of the week from a strictly
news standpoint. 1t gives facts,
! with comment thereon, and abstains
| from prophecy and expression of
mere opinion. The above positive
statement, referring to one of the
most important events of the day,
would seem, therefore, to be SO far
out of it's usual editorial habit as to
indicate authority behind it. 1t is an
important contribution to discus
sion in which the parties principally
interested have held themselves non
commital, and have given out no
definite information whatever to the
| public.

TRUSTWORTHY CANDoR.

Political candor is not so common
a virtue among Republican newspa-
pers that it should pass without &C
acknowledgement. Therefore we note
with satisfaction and approval the
following true and manly express
sion of editorial opinion by the Min
neapolis Tribune:
1t was Cleveland's initiative in call
ing an extra session of congress in 1899
that made the repeal of the Sherman
act possible; and it was his influence
winch held Secretary Carlisle in line
ana gave the sound money Democrats
their recent victory in Kentucky. If
we had some Republican leaders of ma
tlonal prominence who were as out
spoken and undaunted as President
Cleveland, there would be more GER
talnty OF the silver heresy being
Squeiched in both parties. 1t is posi-
bic that Reed, Mckinley or Harrison
VIII now take courage from the presi-
dents success in defeating the free
coinage agitators in his own party, and
come to the conclusion that franknesS
and flrmness is better than silence or
equlvocation. The public would like to
know exactly where these gentlemen
are 'at' on the silver question.
Secretary Carlisle did not need any
holding in line" for an experience
with the responsibilities of national
finance had made him as earnest
and as bold in his convictions as
Mr.. Cleveland himself. Neither will
anybody hear the 'blast upon the
bugle-horn" of any of the Repub-
l1can candidates named, for which
the Tribune calls. Their horns are
OF the variety that toot with the
rabble, not the kind that sound an
advance. Nevertheless the Tribune
IS to be credited with speaking some
wholesome truths without mincing
its words

Quinlan, the Grand Trunk passenger
agent who was on the first train, IS
not seriously wounded. In CONVEX
sation with an Associated Press cor
respondent he said he could not say
how he escaped death, as the Pullman
car he was in was completely shivered
INTO spiinters. The porter of the Pull
man at the time of the collision, Ben
nett Bassler, said he could not account
for the accident. At the time it hap
pened he was putting up berth in the
Pullman. P. McHugh, one of the in
jured said he was sitting in the car
in front of the Pullman when the ac-
cident occurred. He saw the locomo-
tive of the second train coming
through his car and was saved by
friend named Simon White.
