ACETYLENE.

Perhaps the board of public works,
in considering plans for the future
lighting of the city, should take into
account the recently discovered gas
called acetylene. We have already
given some facts to show the ex-
traordinary cheapness with which
is said to possess such power as an
illuminant as to surpass the cleo
trio light as far as that surpasses
gas. It's other properties, which are
numerous enough to stagger the
Imagination, are summarized in an
article which we reprint in another
column from Bradstreet's. If it came
from any other source than this staid
commercial journal, and if it's au-
thorities were less reliable than they
are, we might suspect the writer of
romancing. A gas which is a sort
of universal base, from which can be
produced pretty nearly everything
from aniline dyes to alcohol, is like
something taken out of the children's
fairy tales. This appears, however,
to be well-substantiated fact, and
acetylene promises to play an im-1
portant part in the world of COM
. ;ts
merce and of comfort. That it will
work some wonderful transforma-
tions in the light supply of the fut-
ure there does not seem to be any
reason to doubt. IN

st. Paul Lodge No. 2, I. o. o. F., the
oldest lodge of the order in the state,
gave it's thirteenth annual reception
and banquet at the lodge parlors, Fifth
and Wabasha, last evening. From Z
o'clock until 9 the members and officers
held an informal reception among
themselves and their guests. Promptly
at 8 o'clock the gathering, numbering
something over fifty couples, repaired
to the dining room, where they were
regaled by feast of reason and flow
of SOUL" supplemented by most elab-
crate menu. The tables were taste
fully decorated with cut flowers, while
the room displayed banners and en-
blems of the order. Upon the seating
of the guests the Troubadour quartette
rendered a beautiful serenade, after
which the following toasts were re-
sponded to:
"Fraternal Benevolent Societies and
Their Relation to Free Republican
Form of Government" Judge Grier NJ
Orr; "A Discourse on Humor," w. l.
Nolan; "Rebecca Odd Fellowship, It's

Through the Garden of Nonsense"
w. 1. Nolan.
Following the discussion of the menu,
the hall was cleared TO make room for
the dancers, who enjoyed delightful
programme of twelve numbers by
Harris Mandolin club. The commit
tee having the entertainment in charge
consisted of George F. Engel, c. D.

FREE RAW MATERIAL

GOV. Culberson, of Texas, recently
said in an interview that the tariff
issue must be pressed" One of his
constituents, in a Galveston paper.

a return to a tariff for revenue. But
Mr.. Cave, the constituent in oues-
ton, wants to know upon what DEM

for manufacturers can be defended.
unless it be that the government is
bound to foster the enterprises of the
people; and the provision of free ma
terlal, accompanied with protection
to the manufactured article, is a very
rank form of protection. Whereupon
the New York Sun remarks that this
position of Mr.. Cave is Democratic
beyond question, and wants to know
what Democratic statesman in office
stands with him.
We know of no free trader who
DEFENDS the policy of free raw ma
ter1al except on the grounds of a pres

was adopted and urged as tactical
movement, as, in warfare, a COM
mander seeks to divide the forces of
his enemy and whip them in detail.
So compactly had been the selfish in
terests welded that an assault along
the whole line would end in defeat.
The experience of the various DEM
ocratic tariff bills, including the lat
est, illustrates this. The interests
attacked rallied in the senate and
transferred all the raw material
placed on the free list by the house
to the dutiable list, except wool. In
some unaccountable manner it was
allowed to remain free. Had the
policy of the house bill been carried
into effect, we would have had
large section fprotectionist strength
cut off, instead of only that portion
engaged in turning raw wool into
fabrics.
The attitude Of these people to
their former allies, the wool grow
ers, led by Shepherd Lawrence,
proves the wisdom of the policy
adopted. The old alliance offensive
and defensive is dissolved. The
shepherds are left to fight their
battle alone. The manufacturers are
content to have their wool untaxed.
with their fabrics suitably protect
ed. They turn deaf ear to the
persuasions and threats of the shep-
herds. These are rallying for an
assault on congress, but the wooden
cloth makers are not with them.
Judge Lawrence recognizes this. His
soul is full of bitterness and wrath.
In letter to the Ohio Farmer he
declares that ''free wool with pro-
tected manufactures is vile and in
famous swindle." He raps over the
knuckles the candidates for the pres
idency who desire to avoid the ques-

so SORRY.

1t gives us great pain to learn that
the Minneapolis Tribune does not ap-
prove of the letter of Secretary Nor
ton addressed to the secretary of
the Minnesota State Democratic as
sociation. 1t comes to the defense
of the so-called Democratic senators
who united with the Republicans to
defeat the Wilson bill, and force
tective tariff act which is now in
force. AS is usual in such cases, the
Tribune either has not taken the
trouble to read Mr.. Morton'S letter,
or else it does not understand the
very plain English in which it is
couched. 1t ought not to be neces-
sary to remind the Tribune that
Democrats, whether of MI Morton's
way of thinking or otherwise, do
not contemplate the immediate es-
tablishment of free trade. They are
aware that this process must neces-
sarily take some time. What Mr..
Morton said in his letter was that
one cardinal principle of Democracy
is the tablishment of ultimate
free trade" Probably the Tribune
has forgotten, if it ever knew, that
Mr.. James A. Garfield declared that
he favored the sort of protection
whose end should be ultimate free
trade"
o. 1t is only since McKinleyism OBJ
tained supreme control of the Re-
publican party that it dropped it's
pretense of intending at some time
to reduce protective duties until they
should finally disappear. That was
the creed of all it's earlier and bet
ter leaders. The Mckinley idea of
protection now and forever, for the
sake of protection, is the robber
theory to which Republicans are
now firmly committed The course
of recent events has demonstrated,
however, that the country may go to
a revenue tariff basis at a much
speedier gait than anybody had pre-
viously anticipated. The excess of
the men who have gone protection
mad will probably result in a much
more sudden sweeping away of the
method of government by bribery
and bounty than either Democrats or
Republicans of half a generation
ago expected. The rest of the Trib-
une's article indicates a case of men
tai confusion too complicated for
cure. 1t assumes that taxes on tea,
coffee and sugar, and the excise duty
OF dollarsper barrel on beer, would
constitute ''direct taxation" We
would advise the Tribune to get a
small dictionary of economic terms
and devote some study to it before
discussing tariff and other economic
questions in the future Most Dem
ocrats will conclude that Mr.. Nor
tons position receives a substantial
Endorsement in that it gives pain to
the Tribune and other Republican
organs.

as those that are looked after so
carefully and effectively by public
and private relief agencies. They can
be taken care of by the same system.
The last thing that we should
think of is to sacrifice the child to
the real or imaginary needs of 9TH
ers. Nor is it necessary, as we have
said. The law has been so consid-
erately drawn that it's enforcement
will entail no serious hardship, ex-
cept in a trifling number of in
stances, upon anybody except those
who seek cheap labor for the sake
of their own profit. The representa-
tives of the state will do justly, and
they will command and receive pub
lie sympathy, by compelling strict
observance of the letter of the laws
passed to protect the child.

THE SEASON OF GIVING.

This is the season of acute giving.
Today we give thanks, next month
we give presents. Giving thanks is
as many sided as are the people who
give them. Universally observed,
the manner of observing runs the
whole gamut of human desires from
the intensely devout, who attribute
exemption from the disasters of life
to the direct interposition of provi-
dence, to the materialist who OBJ
serves the day with any unusually
good dinner. Candor compels the
statement that the keenly appreci-
ative and gratefully devout are the
few, while those who look upon the
feast with watering mouths are the
many. If, with these latter, thanks
are said, they are perfunctorily Civ
en- while sharpened appetites urge
brevity in the rendering. 1t may be
a reflection on the sense of gratitude
of the mass, or it may indicate that
they have an under consciousness of
no obligations to any but themselves
for what they have or have escaped;
but the condition remains the plain,
cold, unsentimental fact.
Christmas will come soon with it's
deluge of holiday giving, accompa-
MED with all it's delights to the giyer
and the receiver; the wild joy of the
children and the beaming happiness
of the parents, reflex of youthful
felicity. But true giving knows no
special times or seasons. Good
gifts or bad, life is per-
petual giving. 1t is the low
est form of gift that takes tangi-.
BILE shape in material things. The
highest and best giving is that which
does not decrease the store of the
giver, but leaves him as rich, often
richer than before. The virtues of
life are not monopolized by those
who have and use them. In their
exercise there is a giving of influ-
ence that enters into the lives of
others and enriches them. The pa
triotism that inspires thousands with
a higher sense of duty to country
does not diminish that of the patriot.
Kindly consideration for others,
flowing out in daily actions, is a
rich giving without lessening. Con-
tinually men are giving to their fell
lows their best thought, the fruits
Of years Of laborious study, and the
store is not depleted. The man who
works for wage, but puts his work
first in his thoughts, gives some
thing to his employer, but leaves
himself richer for it. So we all go
through our lives, shedding our in
f1uence among and upon our
fellows, losing something of
ourselves when we hurt them and
gaining something for ourselves
when we help them.

GLEASON AND HORSES.
They Go Together and Make n
Great Team


Great Team.
Although there are thousands of
bicycle riders in st. Paul, who take
great delight in riding their machines
out to the summer resorts, ETC., there
are thousands of people among the
wealthier class who believe as their
fathers did, that there is no exercise
so exhilarating as riding or driving
fine horse. To thoroughly enjoy one
self in either case, a person should un-
derstand fully the nature of the horse
he owns and how to handle him with
confidence. The person, either man or
woman, who does thoroughly under
stand the handling of a horse, will
never have an accident of any kind
that can be laid to the horse. On
Saturday night, Oscar r. Gleason, the
celebrated horse tanner, while handling
a number of very vicious horses from
st. Paul and vicinity, will deliver his
lecture for the benefit of the audience,
and anyone who sees his work and
listens to what he says can, at the
close of Mr.. GleaSons entertainment,
cure any vice that his horse may have.
Among the hoses to Ne handled by Mr..
Gleason, will be Jack the Ripper, a
horse who has vicious temper and is
altogether unmanageable. He will
arrive in st. Paul by train on Friday
morning, and on Saturday evening
will be thoroughly subdued and driven
before the audience by Mr.. Gleason, at
the Auditorium.

PREPARING THE APPEAL.
J. B. Cotton, Duluth, Comforting
With n st, Paul Firm

Joseph B. Cotton, counsel for the
Duluth, Messabe & Northern road,
Lake Superior Consolidates Mines and
other Rockefeller interests at the head
of the lakes, has been in st. Paul for
a day or two comforting with a lead
ing law firm regarding the appeal made
by Mr.. Rockefeller in the case where
Duluth jury awarded the Merritt
brothers a verdict of $4,000, notice of
which was duly filed some months ago.
The verdict was received in Duluth
with more than ordinary satisfaction
owing to the popularity and loyalty
to the city of the Merritts but it is not
generally known that the Rockefeller
attorneys believe they have the best
sort of grounds upon which to base
their application for reversal of the
decison. 1t is intimated that whereas
great stress was laid during the trial
upon certain points which were not
necessarily important, the defendants
lawyers have found and are working
on a new line which promises to be
something of a surprise even to the
Merritts themselves, who fancy them
selves secure in their position with a
judgment against one of the richest
men in the country.

iIFOR THAT WHICH WE HAVE
RECEIVED.H

In looking over our grounds for re-
joicing today there seem to be rea-
sons for giving thanks which will
fit all natures. Our forefathers es-
tablished this holiday as a witness
of their gratitude to God for mate
rial conditions which would seem to
us poor and unthankworthy. we
have come long way since then;
our demands upon Providence are as
much more eXacting as our recog-
milton of blessings is less alert. But
lit is a poor heart that never is
thankful" and it must be a very
poor heart indeed which cannot rec
ognize in the more than bountiful
harvests and in the sure, though
slow, return of business prosperity,
much cause for national rejoicing.
There are many more people who are
inclined to put up a prayer of thanks
for these and similar blessings than
will be seen in our churches today,
but there is also a large class who
believe that mans prosperity is so
largely of mans own making as to
render it unseemly or impertinent to
mention material blessings to an un-
known First Cause, whose interest
in man, if existent, must necessarily
be cosmic rather than personal. But
even from such a standpoint,
Thanksgiving should not be a vain
nor empty day. The world holds
more people today than it ever held
before who are interested in the
prosperity of others as we'll as in
their own. 1t does not matter that
something of the joyous confidence
of our forefathers in Gods direct
guidance is abated in many of their
descendants, if only the latter are
learning more effectively thereby
how to guide each other.
We may deny the interference of
Providence in the balance of trade
anu Tic SulillllSl oIOAAl pN1 viz
stream of tendency which makes for
righteousness remains, and it's di-
rection was never more plainly seen
in the world than of late. The soft
ening of mans heart to man and the
slow but steady growth of good will
in the world are not hidden even
from the agnostic, and constitute a
cause for Thanksgiving which can
not seem petty to any soul. Even
our philanthropic blunders and re-
ligious mistakes are something to be
glad of, for they show that we are
in earnest in our striving for better
day.
On the whole, in spite Of it's draw
backs, it is a good, brave, healthy
world, and it is a good thing to be
alive in it, helping to push it along.
Seed time is a more interesting sea-
son than harvest; and, as a recent
writer has said, "to travel hope
fully is better thing than to arrive"
Perhaps it is not the least of our
blessings that the millennium has
not vet come, and is in need Of our
active assistance before it can ar
rive.

ton of protecting wool lest they
should offend the wooden manufact-
urers," and roundly vows that "if
free wool is to be permanent policy
we must have free goods"
The shepherds are doomed to dis
appointment Wool will remain on
the free list. With all of the devo-
ton of Republicans to their pet pol
icy, that party never restored to the
taxed list an article once placed on
the free list. This was true of qui-
nine and of hides. The vacillations
in the Fifty-first congress over hides
were amusing. In committee, at the
demand of the farmers, hides were
taxed. The leather men and the shoe
men rallied and charged and drove it
back onto the free list. After sew
eral assaults and repulses, hides re-
manned where they had been for
years before. So it will be with
