qualities of the late General Casey, de-

the officers in the public service.
A joint resolution was passed allowing

WILLIES MUST WORK.
Judge Shissler Will Sentence Tramps
to Hard Labor.

Judge Shissler has concluded to give
ordinance 46 a trial, and will sentence
tramps to hard labor on the streets
and turn them over to Chief Yates to
enforce the sentence. He believes
that the council ought to have estab-
lished a stone pile at the meeting last
night, but as this was not provided,
the streets will afford plenty of oppor-
tunity for work. The ripraping Of
Front street is being done by days
labor, and force of men are at work
pounding stone. Tramps could just
as we'll do this, and reduce the expen-
sive street pay roll.
We hope that the police will bring
in tramps from now on, and get the
enforcement of the law under way, in
order that the tramp nuisance may be
solved at once. In a few weeks not
enough tramps will stop off in the city
to break load of stone week.

Clarence Staley, the sixteen year
old son of Peter Staley, met with a
bad accident Tuesday afternoon be-
tween five and six o'clock, while on
the farm of his uncle, Mr.. Little. He
was handling fire arm and a cart

hand in most painful manner. He
came to the city and had the injured
member treated by DR.. Andrews, who
found it necessary to amputate the
thumb and index finger. The remain
der of the hand can be saved, but the

WILL REORGANIZE.
The Base Ball Association Holds a
Business Meeting

The members of the base ball as
zsociation held a meeting Tuesday
and another one Wednesday, at
which the base ball situation in this
city was talked over. The association
is a little behind as a result of the
season thus far, and three of the nine
members have been advancing money.
gThey have now tired of this, and have
concluded to do so no longer. The
other six members must do their
share hereafter. 1t was decided to
reorganize, if possible, by taking in
more members, and shares of S. each
will be offered to our merchants. II
zone or two hundred of our citizens
would take share of stock each, the
company will be a success. If this is
not done, the ball club will be dis.
banded after week or two. Efforts
to carry out the new plan will be made
at once.
! Local patriotism ought to insure
1.-THE establishment of base ball in Man
IkatO on firm basis, not to mention
the advertising which the city gets
through a good club, and the money
left in the city by strangers who are
attracted by the games played here.
1t is to be hoped that the matter will
Ibe speedily settled, for Mankato has
4 q team second tO none OutSide Of the
leagues, and one which is the pride OF
our citizens. 1t is thought that the
club will be self sustaining during the
remainder of the season.
The property belonging to the as
ISOLATION is good, and will be turned
over to the reorganized company at a
valuation to be determined by ap
ipraisors.

TELEPHONE co. WINS.
A. ]. Busch Loses i'm His Suit With
the Northwestern.

Late Tuesday afternoon the deci-
sion in the suit of A j. Busch VS..
the Northwestern Telephone Elk
change Co. was filed with Clerk of
Court Thorne. The action was one to
restrain the company from maintain
ing a telephone pole on Mr.. Busch's
corner. 1t was tried last winter be-
fore Judges Severance, Caldwell and
Brown, of the sixth, eighth and thir-
dteenth judicial districts. Attorneys
Cray and Young appeared for the
9plaintiff, and Hale, Morgan & Mont
(gomery and B. D, Smith for the de-
J PENDANTS.
| After reciting the facts in the case,
with which the public is familiar, the
last finding is as follows:
/ That the erection and maintenance
: of said telephone pole and telephone
line does not in any manner Interfere
with or prevent free access to the
premises and building of the plaintiff
or egreSS therefrom, and does not in
any manner interfere with or prevent
the free access OF light and air TO Sald
building and premises; but the wires
of the said line do at times, and especi-
i ally when the wind blows, emit sounds
and noises that to some extent annoy
and disturb persons in occupancy OF
! said building of the plaintiff, especi-
ally during the night in sleeping
+ hours; and the erection Of said tele-
phone pole and line on the fee of the
plaintiff and the maintenance thereof
in no other way interferes with the
= free and comfortable use and enjo1-
ment Of said premises; that the de-
PENDANT has not in any respect been
negligent in the erection OF said tele-
phone pole or line on said fee OF the
plaintiff, and has not been and is not
negligent in the maintenance thereof:
and that the erection of said pole and
line does not interfere with OF prevent
g the reasonably safe and practicable
use of said Front street or unreason-
ably impair in any respect the ease
ments of the plaintiff as AUDITING
owner on said street.

REPUBLICAN BIMETALLISM.

The only gold monometallists that we
know of in this country is the Grover
Cleveland party. That party is pre-
pairing to convene n national conyen-
ton for the distinct purpose Of declar-
Ing for gold standard. The charge Of
the Bryan party that the Republican
party Is for gold recommendation is a
false charge and nobody understands
its unfairness better than Mr.. BRYAN
himself. The Republican party de-
clares in its platform for gold, silver
and paper money. all on a parity. Fin
anclal writers in Europe understand
the issue. The Chicago platform stands
Tor silver standard. the st. Louis
Republican platform for a bimetallic
standard, and the indianapolis Demo
cratic convention viii demand the
single gold standard. The National
Review for July. a London monthly.
contains an article on what is termed
THE American Silver Rebellion" from
the pen Of T. E. Powell, vice president
OF the Bimetallic league. 1t was evil
IDENTITY written in the main before the
Republican national convention was
held. but the last clause ar least was
added after the platform had been
adopted.
Mr.. Powell fairly represents the plat
form when he says that the policy
chosen e the maintenance of the exist
ing gold standard until international
agreement opens the door to silver. and
the promotion OF such international
agreement" Having epitcmized the
financial plank he adds by way of CON-
ment. The significance of the situarion
lies in the absence OF the single gold
plank from me declared policy Of the
pople." Yet the Democrats and Popu-
lists are continually representing that
the significance OF the situation lies in
the substantial adoption OF the single
gold plank by the Republican party.
Mr.. Powell further observed, There
Is no triumph OF gold and no triumph

BRYAN AND THE PRESS.

1t is common assertion Of the dis
appointed and disgruntled that the As
ISOLATED Press is but monopoly con-
trolled by other and greater monopo-
lies, such as railway trusts, bank COM
bines, gold syndicates and the politi-
cal party which happens TO be in pow
er. No disclaimer aYails with such
people. The fact that the Associated
Press Is a mutual newsgatherer,
kind Of incorporated society, includ-
ing in its membership newspapers of
every possible character and shade Of
politics, each with equal rights, counts
for nothing with those who think they
smell a rat. 1t has been a common
assertion, for instance, among the
Pops, that the goldbug interest was
controlling the Associated Press, and
that Bryan would have no show and
seldom be heard from. What these
kickers are thinking now we do not
know, but it is evident to every reader
OF Associated Press dailies that Mr..
Bryan is about the only man who is
given any attention. The disinterest-
ed reader might readily conclude that
MIR. Bryan has scinch on the Associat-
ed Press. The wires are daily and
nightly loaded with his sayings, doings
and movements. The Republican
dailies are furnished more of Bryan
than Of anything or anybody else.
The Associated Press is non-partisan
and in every way superior to any polit-
ical or financial influence. Its organ
ization and composition precludes any
chance of making a tool of it, by any
interest however powerful, for the sim
pie reason THAT it embraces all inter-
ests and is part and parcel Of every
side. As a corporation It's capital
stock is news and nothing else While
it cannot be made a tool, it is never
theless machine manned by men OF
all shades Of political belief, living in
every section of the country, with
agents in every part of the globe, all
animated by the one single impulse,
and all charged with the one single
duty, the collation. Of facts, the gather
ing of news.
