NO REAL CAUSE:POR ALARM
Physicians Declare That Typhoid
Fever Is Nd Epidemic.
Water Supply Responsible for the
Cases That Exist, But They Are
Not AbnOrmally. Numerous.

The fact cannot be denied that there are
at this time more cases of typhoid fever
than last year, but the situation is be-
lieved to be far from alarming.
At Providence Hospital there are now
under treatment twenty-five cases of ty-
phoid, as compared with practically none
at the same time last year. At Garfield
Hospital there are nineteen cases as against
ten on the same date of 1894.
Statements have been credited to Health
Officer Woodward that typhoid is now
epidemic in this city, and that rigid sani-
tary measures are necessary to prevent
serious consequences 1t has been found
impossible, however, to verify these state
ments.
DR.. Woodward left for New York last
night to be gone several days, and it was
impossible to learn the facts. In order to
obtain medical knowledge upon the subject
The Times obtained interviews with num-
Der OF prominent physicians.

CAPITOL CONTEST OVER.

The people of Minnesota may
congratulate themselves this morn
ing that the Minneapolis capitol
bubble has burst and vanished into
thin air, and that the legislature can
proceed with the work for which it
was elected-the making of laws.
Certain real estate boomers of the
Flour City, some weeks since, saw
the shadow of an opportunity to I'M
load some of their mortgaged dirt
in the scheme to remove the state
capitol to Loring park, Minneapolis,
and, aided by a few newspapers,
which are far more anxious to stir
up strife than to conduct themselves
in an honorable, straightforward
manner, have kept st. Paul and the
rest Of the state in a turmoil for at
least third of the session, and all
10 no purpose, as there never was a
chance that the plans of the schem-
erS would get favorable considera-
ton by either house of the legisla-
ture. The house judiciary commit
tee last night, after thorough con-
sideration of the Loring park prop
oS1tIon, decided that MINNEAPOLIS had
no authority to offer the park to the
state, and that the legislature had-no
power to authorize the conveyance
of the park to the state This ends
the matter as completely as posi-
BILE, and Minneapolis can now go to
church, get converted and lead an
honorable life.

THE RUSH TO THE HOG TROUGH.

The Republicans are everywhere
following their course after the cleo
ton of 'SS, and taking that of "a as
they took the former one, as a COM
plete vindication of the policy of
protecting everything that finds
profit in protection, and an unlimited
letter of authority from the people
to extend that policy. We see this
in the torrent of measures pouring
into every Republican legislature
to regulate about everything in
The police powers of the state are
being developed to their fullest. I'm
der this disguise the constitutional
prerogative of congress to regulate
interstate commerce is being mega
lived. Under the specious pretense
of guarding the health of the dear
people these powers are being used
to prevent that healthful competi-
ton of free trade between the states.
Inspection of cattle is it's most
virulent form. There is suddenly
discovered among the cattle of other
states an alarming unhealthfulness.
With the advance of civilization
they have contracted pulmonary dis
eases until no cow or steer, no mat
ter how healthful it's appearance, is
fit for food until some man skilled in
packing caucuses has inspected its
meat and duly certified to its fitness
for food. One wonders as he reads
the arguments for meat inspection
how the race has ever survived, ex-
posed as it has been to the infection
of tuberculosis and trichinae. Min
neSota is not alone in this new
crusade of paternalism. New Hamp-
shire and Vermont taboo imports OF
cattle or meats from other states
until an inspector has Vised their
passports. The governor of South
Dakota, not waiting for statutes,
bars the ingress of foreign cattle on
the ground of their assumed dis
eased condition. And here and there
and everywhere the reasons given
are the merest pretense, while back
of them are the selfish interests seek
ing protection from competition that
they may reap larger profits.

Among the cheering signs of the
times is the vigor with which some
Republicans, who see the strong
trend toward state socialism, and, in
a glimmering way, realize that their
party is responsible for it, havingi
set the pace that its pupils are only
quickening, are setting their faces
against paternalism. Here and there
paper like our downtown con-
temporary, or some legislator like
Senator Wyman, makes protest
against some measure or another as
being paternalistic. There is dire
need of this, and vastly more of
it, when one senator pirates about the
duty of the state" to foster the iron
industry, and another about it's sim
liar obligation to develop the sugar
industry, and another senator wants
to foster the packing industry under
guise of protecting the public health.
1t is high time that there should be
protests and revolt against this
tendency, whose only end is despot-

tenders were given a practical illus
tratiOn this evening of the insubor-
dination which has reigned among
the inmates for several weeks past
Mrs. Charles Henrotin, Mrs. ]. d.
Harvey and Mrs. G. NJ. Holt spent
the afternoon at the home, and took
supper with the inmates. The thirty
girls confined in the home took adj
vantage of the presence of the rep
resentatives of the management to
show what they could do in the way
of rioting. They succeeded so well
that they smashed nearly all the
crockery in the house, dismantled
the. dining room furniture. broke
windows, threw the contents of the
pantry about the premises, filled the
air with shouts and then refused to
go to their rooms at the command
of the police. 1t required three
wagon loads of policemen to quell
the riot, and it was found necessary
to carry the majority of the girls to
their rooms by main strength, and
leave a
POLICEMAN ON GUARD
during the night at the door of each
room occupied by the girls.
The outbreak was the result of
meeting held by the girls in the
afternoon, when it was decided to
show, by breaking the furniture, re-
sentiment for the partially shown
by the management, as claimed by
the girls, for Mamie Davis, who was
allowed to go to her home. Mamie
Davis, the girls claim, was the ring
leader among them, and when she
was allowed to go home, the others
decided to take advantage of the
presence of the members of the
board of management to show their
resentment for the alleged partial
ity. AT the supper table the girls
were models of prOpriety, and lis
tened to the remarks of Mrs. Hen
rotin and the other members of the
board of management with atten-
ton. They were calculated to show
them the wrongfulness of insubOr-
dination. During the riot Mrs. Hen
rotin and the other ladies were
forced to remain in the room and
witness the riot, the girls having
locked the doors.
