The Illinois railroad and warehouse
commissioners want their legislature
to give them power to decide whether
or not proposed new railroads are
needed. The ground for requesting
such power is that by reason of the
great number of roads in the State few
are paying and that many have become
bankrupt. 1t ought to be a good thing
to devise means for regulating the ex-
plotting and building of new roads,
Breckenridge Telegram.
This is indeed news. Who has heard
of railroad going into a receivers
hands within the past ten years which
was not found to pay when properly
managed? The rates charged for pas
senger or freight service are always
high enough to pay good dividends to
bonafide stockholders. What the COM
missioners should ask for is the power
to prohibit the companies from issuing
"watered" stock. Then they could
form some idea Of the exact condition
OF the so-called bankrupt railroads.

THE management of the Minnesota
State Agricultural society made great
mistake when it fixed. the date of the
coming fair so early. Last year Mile
Lacs county found great difficulty in
procuring matured products for her
exhibition and unless the season is a
very forward one there will be little
use of attempting to secure an exhibit.
What is true of Mile Laos cou ntv is
also true of the great range of agri-
cultural counties north of us and the
chances are that northern Minnesota
will not be strongly represented in the
next contest for prizes. The remark
able success of the last fair was due in
a great measure to the interest taken
in the county exhibits and where or
dinarily the attendance from these
northern counties was counted by hun
dreds last year it was by thousands.
Ii the management doesn't want us we
will stay away. If the fair is to be for
the southern part of the State alone
the name of the society should be
changed to show it. The northern
part Of Minnesota pays it's pro rata OF
the State appropriation and should not
be wholly ignored.

COULDN'T WORK 'EM.

Since the committee of one hundred
was organized in Minneapolis, a gen.
tleman of this city received a letter,
from a member of the committee ask
ing him to organize an anti-machine
club in Northfeld. The letter ex-
planned that in this case anti-machine
meant anti-Clough. The honest voter
is always opposed to what is termed
machine politics; but when so-called
reform movement is inaugurated SIM
ply to stop one machine and build up
another more powerful, the attempt
meets with little sympathy from the
average man, and he is somewhat par
ticular about having proof of the ex-
istence of object for attack. Just how
many anti-( Clough) machine clubs the
committee has succeeded in forming in
this State we do not know; but we do
know that the attempt to form one in
Mortified was unsuccessful. North

PIONEER PRESS: The supreme court
of the United States Monday reversed
the Judgment of Judge Sanborn, of the
circuit court, on the question sof the
legality of the agreement between the
Great Northern and the bondholders
of the Northern Pacific. The court
held that the plan of reorganization
contemplated by the agreement was a
virtual consolidation of two parallel
railroads, in contravention of the acts
of the legislatures of 1874 and 1881,
which prohibited such consolidation.
Judges Brewer and Field dissented
from this opinion, and apparently sus-
tain the view taken by Judge Sanborn.
The argument of the court, of which
our Washington special [see page q
gives clear summary, will be inter-
esting to lawyers and all citizens who
have followed this controversy While it
sustains the conclusions of Judge Kelly,
it runs counter in some respects to his
views, as, for example, on the proper
construction of the act of 1865. A no.
ticeable feature of the opinion of the
supreme court is that it holds that if
the agreement had been merely what
it purported to be on it's face, for an
interchange of traffic between two lines
under joint tariff, there would be no
objection to it. This decision of the
supreme court establishes beyond ques-
tion that any consolidation of parallel
roads in this State which has taken
place since 1874, if there be any such
instance, is illegal. Thus another field
of litigation is opened to the lawyers.

FLOCKING TO HIM.

It would not be safe politics at this
time to say that Gov. Clough was the
first choices of the Republicans of Big
Stone county, but it is perfectly safe to
say that he has three friends in the
county now where he. had one a few
weeks ago. Vicious abuse brings out
a mans virtues quicker than anything
else.-Ort0nville Herald Star.
The Princeton union., 1896-04-02

D. r. MORGAN, of Minneapolis,
thinks Senator Davis would show ex-
cellent taste if he introduced a bill in
congress prohibiting consolidation Of
railroads. Considering the position
he held last summer when the case was
before the courts it must be admitted
that this would be putting it all over
Davis.

SAY NIT. AGAINST HIM.

The people of Stevens county have
placed themselves on record as being
solid for Mckinley, and the next move
will be to stand by the man who stood
by them and go solid for him, and that
man is Gov. Clough. Aman must be
a pretty good. governor when his
enemies cannot say anything against
him, and that is the position Clough is
in. He has made good governor and
why not keep him there?- Morris Irib-

THE TIMES IND TIE g 1O0 E

THE TIMES AND THE .s10O.''
y The Minneapolis Times, which has
been the special organ Of the commit
tee Of 100 since the day of their birth
the wet nurse, SO to speak, of the anti
Clough movement Of which the 100 are
parents-has at length tired of it's
charge, and of the whole family. It
turns upon it's erstwhile bosom com
panions of the century club" with
bitter denunciation. It charges that
the committee of 100 eminent politi-
clans are not only without method or
harmony, but without honest pur-
pose" Tt says that unless there is, a
radical change in the spirit and meth
DDS, and more than that, in the purpos-
es of the committee of 100 which has had
charge Of the anti-Clough movement,
Mr.. Clough will not only carry Henne-
pin county, but will be nominated by
the State convention, and nominated
easy"
This is a significant confession as
coming from the chief organ of the.
committee. The press of the State at
large has voiced this sentiment for
weeks. But that the organ Of the COM
mittee itself should at last voice the
same sentiment, was something scarce
ly to be dreamed of by the most ardent
friends of the governor. 49,
Editor John Blanchard sails into the
program and purposes of the famous
committee of 100 in this fashion, which
all who are interested in the ''anti''
movement should read: 1...-. !
For a score or more of prominent
Minneapolis politicians to get together
and declare, in the name of the G. o.
P, that Clough shall not carry Henne-
pin, and that his political career shall
permanently close with the close of his
present term of office, is one thing; for
the voters at the primaries to support
that proposition is another and quite
different thing. What purpose has
this distinguished committee of 100,
beyond the political annihilation of
Clough? When Clough and his ma
chine are demolished, what is the com
mittee prepared to offer in their place?
Have they no plan, no purpose, no pro-
gram, no candidate? Or, having these,
are they proceeding on the theory that
the people have no right to be in
formed, but must be content with
whatever slate the committee may ar
range? Do sensible and practical men
believe that the people. can be led by
the nose in this fashion? X
The people should not allow them
selves to be humbugged and deceived
in this connection. The hope that
Clough can be beaten by anything the
committee of 100 had done, or is likely
to do, is an utterly false hope. There
is no earnestness, consistency, COM
pleteness or sincerity in their methods
or movements.
The above should be sufficient to sat-
isfy every voter regarding the charac-
ter and purposes of the 100, and the
sincerity of the cause which they have
fathered. The several candidates who
have been trotted out by this commit
tee should lose no time in getting from
under and crawling in out of the wet.

who have been presented as the zoos

BROWN WAS INDIGNANT.
He Throws Out Some Dark and Myste-
riouS Hints.

City Attorney Brown was on the war
path yesterday morning in reference to
an article published in the evening
paper the day before in relation to the
complaint in the case of Mamie Brown,
charged with petit larceny, and charg-
ing that the reporter had been denied
a sight of the complaint when he wished
to ascertain the true name of the COM
planning witness.
Mamie appeared for sentence this
morning and H. L. Buckley. her attor-
ney, made a strong plea for a fine instead
of Imprisonment, stating that she had
never been charged with such an Of
fense before. She had been brought be-
fore him while Police Judge on COM
plaint of her mother, on account of her
waywardness and had gone from bad
to worse, until she found herself in her
present situation. If not sentenced to
jail, however, she would stay with her
mother and reform.
City Attorney Brown said that the
case was one that was very close to the
line between grand and petit larceny
A number of such cases mad been sent
to the Superior Court, but after putting
the county to the expense of a trial
conviction had not been secured. He
had thought it better, therefore, in this
case to allow her to plead guilty to
petit larceny and assure a conviction.
He alluded to the article in question
and said>that a due regard for decency
had in the past influenced him in some
cases of a similar character, but this
was the last time he should show any
regard for any person so lost to the
sense of decency as to try to thus in
lure one who had not committed any
crime or been accused of one If it were
not for respect to the families and rel
atives of those who have criticised
this man, he could far more strongly
criticise them than they could the COM
pIainant, and he could bring proofs and
circumstances that would make it look
far worse for them, for he is not mar
ried man The Record Union had
published the name as given to the re-
porter by the officials, it being the
mans first and middle names, but not
his last name.
The reporter of the evening paper, he
declared, had misunderstood what he
was told Everyone knows that public
documents are open to inspection, ex-
cept in such cases as the court has
ordered differently, and the reporter
could have obtained from him the name
he sought, if he pursued a proper
methods of procedure.
The court said that he knew nothing
of the facts of the case except what
had appeared before him. The girl had
pleaded guilty of petit larceny, and he
saw no cause for criticism in any way.
IT was a case very near to the line of a
penitentiary offense, but he thought it
was probably better to allow her to
plead guilty of petit larceny than to
take the chances of her being acquitted
in the Superior Court. While men who
visit such women are entitled to pro-
lection from such robbery, it was her
first offense and he thought degree of
leniency shown might effect a reforma-
ton in her At the same time her act
showed a depraved nature and he
should sentence her to four months in
the County Jail.
