American public than that of Justice
Brewer. of the supreme court, be

at Detroit. The immediate subject
Of his remarks, which was the need
of a better education in the legal pro-
fession, is Of less interest to those
outside that body than his telling

administering justice. He declares
against the laws delays, in words
that are as true as they are vigorous.
No one can deny that these delays
are growing more numerous and
more troublesome constantly. We
have had occasion recently to call
attention to the increasing practice
of carrying even small cases, espe-
cially those Of a criminal nature,

ROW OVER KIER HARDIE.
Chicago Socialists Make Trouble
With Their Red Roses,

Kier Hardie was met at the depot by
two committees, one representing the
radical element of the socialists and
the other the regular committee of the
Chicago labor organization which in
vited him to this country. The radi-
Gals were first to meet Hardie, and
presented him with a large bunch of
red roses. The congress committee
saw this and protested, but in vain.
The congress people then hustled the
visitor into a carriage and drove him
to the hotel Here a hurried confer
ence was held. Hardie was told that
he must not attend the picnic to be
held by the radicals Sunday afternoon,
and after considerable discussion, he
promised that he would not do so.
Baked in their purpose to capture the
visitor, and not knowing where he had
been taken, the radicals also held a
meeting, at which a committee was
appointed to wait on Hardie tomor-
row morning. He will then be asked
which party he prefers to deal with,
and the result will be Immediately
cabled to his home in the old country.
There Is considerable bad feeling here
tonight among the representatives of
the two factions, and it is feared that
it may result in a, collision on Labor
day. Kier was banque ted at the Great
Northern hotel and talked for an hour
and twenty minutes.

an important bearing on indebted
ness and expenditure. Following
this, from time to time at short in
tervals, will appear studies in our
debt and tax levy, and a complete
schedule Of the expenditures in each
department Of local government, with
the purposes to which they are as
signed. In brief, the G O b is now
prepared to present to it's readers a
complete comparative study of st.
Paul, Minneapolis, Omaha and KAN

minis tration is concerned. It be-
Heves that no work of equal value
to the people of this city has ever
been undertaken, and it will find it's
satisfaction and reward in the ap-
plication that may be made of the
facts which it has developed to the
future conduct of our finances, the
lessening of taxation and the ex-
tension OF our growth and prosperity.

RANsOM,s TROUBLES NOT ENDED
He Cannot Draw Salary Until Con-
firmed by the Senate.

frmed by the Senate,
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O.-Minister
Ransom's troubles have not ceased.
First his salary was withheld for
months; then his appointment as min
lister was declared illegal and the Office
vacated. It was thought that his re-
appointment by the president on Aug.
"a, would end the complications. but
the deputy auditor of the treasury has
decided that Ransom cannot draw SAL
airy until he is confirmed by the senate.
The provision of the law upon which he
bases his opinion Is as follows: mo
money shall be paid from the treasury
as salary to any person appointed dur
ing a. recess unless to fill a vacancy
in any existing office If the vacancy
existed while the senate was in ses-
sion, and was by law required to be
filled by or under the consent of the
senate, until such appointee has been
confirmed by the senate"
Mr.. Willis holds that the decision of
Chief Auditor Holcemb, that Mr. Ran
SONS first appointment was Illegal,
and that he was therefore not en-
titled to draw salary, meant nothing
If it did not mean that since the death
Of Minister Gray there has been no
minister to Mexico. That being the
case, he holds that Mr.. Ransoms ap-
point1nent now comes under the pro-
visions of the law quoted. A further
question is raised as to whether, when
confirmed, Mr.. Ransom's accrued sal
airy, since the date Of his last appoint
ment, can be paid, or whether he will
have to look for relief to congress, as

THE CLAYTON-BULWER TREATY

The idea of connecting the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans by a canal across
the isthmus through Nicaragua is
not one of recent birth. Prior to 1850
the scheme had made Roadway, con-
cessions had been granted by Mic
aragua, and the Importance of the
canal had attracted the attention of
the maritime nations. The United
States and England were quick to
see it's value and also to see that
when constructed it must be as free
of interruption, as open to continued
use, as are the oceans it joins. To
secure this the treaty Of 1850 was ne
gotiated and ratified, and remains
today unchanged. Articles subse-
quent to the first, which is hereafter
quoted in full, contain provisions by
which it is agreed to give to the
parties constructing the canal the
joint protection Of both powers; to
maintain the neutrality of the canal,
and to withdraw the protection in
case the tolls are extortionate. The
company then in existence was given
a year in which to present evidence
of it's capacity to build the canal;
after and failing which both govern
| ments were free to extend their pro-
lection to any other company build
ing it. The treaty closes with a
general declaration that it is nego-
tiated mot only to accomplish a
particular object, but to establish a
general principle"
What that general principle was
is not disclosed. It may have been
merely that the two nations would
join their efforts and powers in adj
yancing maritime schemes. Or it may
have been an intimation that they

Maud Muller on summer night
went out on her bike in the bright
moonlight. She pedaled around from
six to ten on a trip that would flag
the strongest men, but her heart was
light and her spirits gay, for it wasn't
work, twas nothing but play. Next
morning, however, she'd a pain in her
head; she was all played out and
stayed in bed, while her mother hustled
wheel, but to make things go. Though
the morning was hot and She worked
by the fire, she didn't collapse with

Though Quay and Mckinley are one
as to protection, so called, it must
be remembered that Quay has played
with the silver delusion, and, perhaps,
is attracted to Mckinley less on ac-
count of his views on protection than
WARBLER on the same silver question.
But Quay and Mckinley and fifty
criminals from Philadelphia and the
robber tariff and silver wabbling will
make great combination for good

The Derby Winner" Sunday night.
Under the new regime, the run of this
highly popular play will necessarily be
limited, closing Wednesday night next,
and as it made a magnificent hit when
seen here before, it will no doubt draw
immensely this visit. 1.-THE Derby Win
ner' is the cleanest, prettiest and most
entertaining comedy and racing drama
ever written, and guided by the ia
nous newspaper man, its author, AL
Sphinx, who has built several race
tracks and owns a string of race
horses, it is in good hands and is
proving one of the most satisfactory
winners of the stage. In the authors
careful revision the past summer he
has brought out two characters that
are strikingly effective and pleasing
that of Nell Williams the jockey, and
Gillie Jones the trainer. The famous
little soubrette, Miss Viola Arthur,
who won the hearts of the people here
last year by her graceful and chesen-
ing personation of the little country
girl, who afterwards became the
Jockey Nell Williams, now has one of
the best characters in the play, and
she is making decided impression in
her portrayal. Gillie Jones is now a
faithful old darby trainer and Billy
Eldrige gives the old fellow mastery
showing. The happy little comedian,
Eddie Giquere, is now the Tommy
Bell, and his wife, Blance Boyer is
Freda. They are both well and favor
ably known in st. Paul.
