cultural association. Of late years
nothing of this sort has been done.
1t is now proposed to have some kind
of entertainment in the city, either
in the nature of harvest festival or
of am evening carnival with parades,
illuminations and other interesting
features. The latter idea seems to
be in general favor and it is a good
one.
No time could be more propitious
for awakening the old energy and
is ample promise Of a return of the
old prosperity. st. Paul and the
Northwest expect great things from
the course of business in the next
year. 1t will be a good idea to cele-
brate the return of better times in
this fashion. 1t will not require the
expenditure of a large amount of
money to provide a brilliant and
beautiful entertainment for our Wis
itors. There will be thousands more
of them this year than ever before.
Let them see that st. Paul is as alive
as ever and as determined to stand
at the front. The committee which
is to meet at the Commercial club
this afternoon should enter enthusi-
astically into arrangements for
carnival for one or two evenings of
fair week, and the people Of st. Paul
will readily join hands with them.

The city council at its meeting Tues
day evening accepted the bid of the
Gazette Printing company for doing
the city's job work during the coming
year, and the proper officers were in
structed to enter into a contract. 1t
was decided to build a sewer on Olive

The board of educat ton met Tuesday
evening to consider the request of w.

THE UNMUzZLED DOG.

The last and first dog ordi-
nance is dead. The mayor killed it
with his little veto. 1t is the only
survival of the tempest-tossed era
of IAN epidemic of rabies that
reached the executive chamber. All
the other legislation which was born
OF that panic persisted untimely.
Now Aid. Markham's resolution, pro-
viding for dog catcher and a pound,
has been sent to join them. 1t is
characteristic of the scientific spirit
prevailing in the entire agitation that
a principal reason why no further
attempt is to be made to muzzle
the dogs of st. Paul is that it is now
growing ''too late in the season."
Those who explain their acts in this
way imply that rabies is a sum-
mer disease. Indeed, that is the
general opinion, and the basis of the
scare that was started here a few
months ago. AS a matter of fact
the disease is as prevalent at one
time of the year as at another, and
the records show even fewer cases in
the summer months than in some
others.
The difficulty about dealing with
1t by municipal ordinance is that the
people take counsel of their panic
iTlC Of TIT
is desirable, as many persons be-
1ieve, to take precautions against
the mad dog, they should be devised
soberly and with a view to perma-
nence. The idea Of muzzling all the
dogs in this city during the hot sea-
son, when it causes them to suffer
most, and leaving the ordinance I'M
enforced in cold weather, when there
is just as much danger as ever, is
both cruel and silly Yet nobody
seems to have seriously contem-
plated legal legislation that would
provide safeguards against rabies at
all times Of the year and in all
places.
We should act intelligently if we
act at all. If it is desired to pro-
tect the public against possible dan
ger of hydrophobia, it should be
done soberly and scientifically. 1t
can be accomplished only by an Or
dinance requiring all dogs to be
muzzled the whole year round, and
providing fully for the immediate
apprehension and slaughter of ami
mails whose owners have not COM
piled with the law. If somebody
shall propose such a system as a
! permanent feature Of local legisla-
ton and advocate it on it's merits,
he will perform public service very
different from this beating of tin
pans and shouting of rabies" dur
| ing few months of the hot sum-
mer weather, and then letting the
| whole matter drop for the rest of
! the year, when the greatest mis-
| chief is actually done and the great
| est danger Of rabies and hydrophobia
exists

THE RETURN OF THE NATIVES.

The Republican party is being
overtaken by the misfortune which
usually follows an unexpected sue
cess. After the tremendous drub-
bling that it received in 1892, it SEEM
ed necessary to it for time to be
on it's good behavior. The reverse of
1896, following the passage of the Nc
Kinley act, and the election of Pres
ident Cleveland two years later,
taught it that public opinion could
not be ignored with safety. Some
of it's least creditable representa-
tives were sent to the rear, and the
people received from it abundant
promises Of reform. These aSsur-
ances prove to have been worth as
much as they usually are under such
circumstances. The election of 1894
raised high hopes once more in the
Republican breast, and the favorite
mode of expressing them since then
has seemed to be that the Repub-
lican party could elect yellow dog
next year." 1t certainly looks as if
the party were determined to try
the experiment; for a more disrep-
utable lot Of CANNES than those who
are now clamoring for the leadership
Of the pack in the various states it
would be hard to find. If there are
any reformers still lingering in the
Republican ranks, they must find
it a lonesome place.
In Pennsylvania stirring fight has
been made in every county in the
state to determine whether Quay
shall remain it's undisputed boss. The
elections in Pennsylvania have set
tied this question in the affirmative.
The amazing thing about it is that
this result does not appear to have
been reached by the usual processes
of political chicane, but that it stands
as the deliberate Judgment of the
Republican voters. In the CITY of
Philadelphia, for example, which is
presided over by what they call a
reform" mayor, almost the entire
Republican vote was cast at the
primaries, and Quay succeeded in
capturing large part of the delega-
ton. His control of the state con-
vention and his election as chairman
of the state Republican committee
are now assured. This means the
formal establishment of the ma
chine, the reelection of Don Came
ron as senator and the pushing of
him to the front as presidential

candidate. Quay will stand in the
background and engineer deal be-
tween the protected interests and
the free silver vote.
A similar condition of things ex-
lists across the New York line Al
though the Republicans of that state
obtained temporary possession of
power only because the voters re-
VOTED against the Democratic ma
chine, they are Fastening to follow
its example. The power of Boss Plat
in New York is as Irresistible and as
firmly established as. that of Boss
Quay, of Pennsylvania. The next
state convention will be in the COM
plete control of Plat and his Great
ures. The Republicans of West Vir-
ginia are equally solid in their sup
port of Steve E1kins, whom they
have just sent back to the senate A
more discreditabIe choice it would be
impossible for any party to make.
Elkins represents all that is worst
and lowest in politics, but will find
himself in congenial company while
sharing the party management with
Platt and Quay. Out in Kansas,
John J. Ingalls, is endeavoring des-
perately to reSurrect himself. The
probability is that he, too, will go
back to the senate from that state.
The contempt of this man for moral
ity in politics, his defiance of all that
is admirable in character and am
bition, and his low standard of pub
lie action so disguised the people
of Kansas that they have endured a
term of PETERS idiocy rather than
be represented by the brilliant, but
unprincipled, Ingalls,. The probabil-
tiles now are that when PETER leaves
the senate, Ingalls, will again sue
coed him as the representative of
Kansas Republicans.
stances of the return to influence
in the Republican party of the men
who brought it to justly merited
defeat. 1t has no moral standard
that would assure their permanent
rejection. It's bosses and corrup-
tionists lie low while the storm is
passing, but their hands are really
never taken from the machine. AS
soon as there is a break in the sky
they hurry out of their holes and
once more take complete possession
of their property. The period of
business depression which reused
again the hope of success in the Re-
publican press has witnessed re-
turn of the natives to the party
which they discredit, but in which
alone they can find a suitable field
for the exercise of their genius.
From present appearance, the Re
publican party will have opportunity
in several states to decide next year
the truth of its boast that it can
elect yellow dog.

OHIO IN LINE.

Democrats who long for the party's
success will rejoice over the work
done by the party in Ohio. That is
a fairly doubtful state, when the
difference between the parties is not
obscured by any outside issue, as
was shown by the close vote of 1882.
But in. state campaigns of recent
years an old delusion has been re-
vived. What was once called the
'Ohio idea" the idea that any old
Thing is good enough to use as
of a demand for the free coinage of
silver. And as soon as that was
done, the party's possibilities van
ished and it was defeated by over
whelming majorities. This year the
cheap-money movement was strong
er than ever; yet it was met in every
county in the state, and on the floor
of the convention, and was beaten

may have had to find with Senator
Brice in the past, it owes him some
thing for the gallant fight that he
has made and won for the suprem-
acy of the sound-money idea in one
of the most important states of the
Union.
i1,a r
Ex-Gov. Campbell is easily the most
popular Democrat in the state and
will make strong run. Whether
or not he can be elected remains to
be seen; but his campaign will GER
tainly restore the Ohio Democracy
ITO their normal strength, and pre-
pare the party for the more serious
work of the coming year. The plat
form presents the issues outlined i'm
the speech of Senator Brice, which
stated admirably the record on which
the Democracy is to go before the
people. 1t has repealed the Sher-
man law, and put an end to panic.
1t has repealed the Mckinley law,
and put an end to the most out
rageous forms Of robbery of the peo-
pie under the name of protection.
1t has repealed the federal election
law, and restored to the people the
right of self-government. It has ND
held the credit of the nation through
the trying times that were brought
about by Republican eNtravag ance.
This is its real platform; this, and
the reviving prosperity which shows
Itself on every hand. Ohio is in line.
and the Democrats of every other
state should follow suit, drop the
issues foreign to the party which
threaten to divide them, and move
Oh to the victory that is easily within
their grasp.

Our State Senator AbOrd a Cham
mel Steamer in Collision.
NEW HAVEN, Eng, Aug. "a
Particulars which have been OBJ
tanned regarding the collision yester-
day afternoon between the freight
steamer Lyon, of the New Haven and
Dieppe line, and the passenger steam
er Seaford, of the same line, by
which the latter was sunk, show
that the Seaford, which left Dieppe
at 1 p. m, was struck by the Lyon
on the port side. The Seaford imme-
diately began to fill, and sank twenty
minutes after having been struck
In the meanwhile her captain had
given orders to promptly and calmly
lower the boats, and the passengers
were treasured by the officers. There
was not the slightest panic at any
time. The Lyon had her stem stove
in by the collision; but she was in
no danger of sinking, and ran along
side the Seaford, whereupon the pas
sengers and crew of the sinking
vessel clambered on board the freight
SledHler. Inere were d numDer OF
Americans on board the Seaford, but
only one of them, a Miss Finn, of
New York, was slightly injured
Miss Finn was able to travel to
London today. The passengers lost
all their baggage. Some of the Amer
lean passengers value the property
lost by those on board the Seaford
at from $4,000 to 100000
At the office Of the company own
ing the two steamers it was said
this afternoon that there is no truth
in the statement that one of the ships
gave a wrong signal, and that this
was the cause of the collision. State
Senator Ozmun, of st. Paul, who was
one of the passengers, says the
American and English passengers,
after the first shock, behaved adj
mirably. In fact, but for their as
SiStance the task Of transferring the
passengers of the Seaford to the
Lyon would not have been so easy,
and probably al would not have
been rescued. The Seaford is now
lying in thirty-five fathoms of water
and it is believed no attempt will be
made to raise her.
