PRESIDENT M,KINLEY's SHAKE.
Moses Folsom Explains How He
Saves Time.


Moses Folsom, Of the Great Northern pub
lcity department, reached home yesterday,
after brief holiday spent in the East and
South On his way east he stopped off at q
number of Ohio points, and visited ST. Louis,
New New York, washington and and other Of the
City he attended one 6f the public receptions
held by President Mckinley. The president,
who is much shorter than he appears in lith-
ographs and photographs, according to Mr..
Folsom, still made quite an impression on
the Great Northern man, on account of his
easy manner and graceful way of receiving
people, even those who svisit the White
house out of sheer curiosity. Although but
one of an endless stream of people, the presi-
dent stopped brief minute and chatted about
his old military company with Mr.. Folsom
who saw it march out Of the state some years
ago.
Mr. Folsom explains that, from necessity,
President Mckinley -grasps his visitors by
the fingers and almost helps them along past
him. This, it appears, prevents the arm
breaking shake and also expedites the move
ment of the people who are there for a
"howdy do?"

Ing:
This company has, during the year, under
the provisions of the lease of the Great North
ern Railway company, completed an extension
of the Hope branch to Aneta, N. D., @07
miles, and an extension of the Halstad branch
to a junction at Carman, Mimi, with the
main line to st. Vincent 1928 miles.
Under the provisions Of the consolidated
mortgage there were exchanged during the
fiscal year twentythree coupon bonds for
registered bonds for the same amount ($23, 00O).
The total exchanges CT this character up
to the close of the last fiscal year have been
1864, 0C0,
During the year the company has issued
its bonds follows:
1914 900 consolidated mortgage AZ per cent
bonds
$1O2. 900 Montana extension mortgage 4 per
cent bonds.
OF the Consols-
1926. 600 were issued on account of the con-
struction of the two branches above mentioned
and of additional main TRACKS in Minneapolis,
referred to in previous reports:
So 600 were issued In exchange for first mort
gage land grant bonds of equal amount, and
$13, 400 were issued on account of additions
to property.
The Montana extension bonds were issued to
nay for large tract of land at Great Falls.
upon which the companys shops, etc., are
situated
BY the operation of the sinking fund $685. 400
first mortgage land grant bonds were re-
deemed by the trustees during the year just
ended.
On March H. 1897. the trustees issued their
Call No. 20, maturing June 1, 1897 for the
$685., 400 first mortgage land grant bonds re-
naming uncalled.
A list of the bonds embraced in this call
will be found on the last pages of this re-
port. At the close of business June 80, 1897,
all except SCI, 400 of the first mortgage bonds
had been presented to the trustees for
demption, and a large portion of this amount
has since been redeemed. The funds to take
UP these bonds when presented having been
deposited with the trustees, the first mortgage
has been satisfied, and the second mortgage
now becomes a first mortgage upon the orig
inal 624 38S miles Of road in Minnesota. The
consolidated mortgage becomes the first mort
gage on the companys land grant, and, sub
ject to the second mortgage and Dakota eX-
tension mortgage, upon all the companys
lines in Minnesota and the Dakotas.

lessees want to get the best terms they
can; and II the present rental Is eN-
cessive, the city may, perhaps. prop
erly reduce IT. But would any busl-
ness man, without n second thought
give the proposed reduction clear
$500? The lessees wanted the
Springs for five years more at
the old rate. Their saving in
rent, and interest thereon compounded
annually during the time when the rent
was to be cut in two. would be close
to $500 The entire i've years
extension would cost $4,000 Hence
they were to get the extension Of 1--WE
years for nothing and bonus beside.
Is that good business policy? Can the
city AFFORD to conduct its operations on
that line? It might have been all
right to reduce the rental for year
or SO. to see how the lcasees could make
1t. but not to the extent Of cutting it
in two. as proposed.
But It would be an outrage to re-
duce 1t fifty per cent for the entire
period OF the nine years, and then rive
the lessees another five years control.
No competent business man would
think of such policy in his own
affairs As for the city, II would he
far better all around II the municipal
ity should take the Springs and run
them Mt actual cost for baths. That
would be a benefit to the public, not
a scheme to fleece 1t.
This incident gives an Illustration

FORBIDDEN ny LAW.

The statement is made about town
that an organization OF ladies' recent
ly waited upon one of the candidates
for mayor-not John Clark--and pro-
posed to give him the vote OF their or
ganization provided he could assure
them that he would, If elected, do so
and so respecting q certain matter;
and 1t is added that the interview was
mutually satisfactory.
The News" suggests that il this
proceeding really took place in the
manner alleged, crime has been COM
mitted of the grade of felony. and pun
ishable by fine of one thousand dol
lars and Imprisonment in the State
prison for FIVE years. Probably the
dear ladies who sought to secure the de-
sired promise from the candidate
whom they approached had no knowl-
edge of the statute relating to cleo
ton offenses, and never dreamed of
the penalty they were mourning. But
this cannot reasonably be said of the
candidate. He is presumed to know
enough about the law to know better
than to attempt to buy a block or
votes for a valuable consideration. 1t
is possible, however, that the candi-
date was as ignorant as were the
ladies with whom he, according to the
statement made, struck bargain.
But ignorance OF the law is no de-
Tense against criminal prosecution.
The statute referred to was enacted TO
prevent Just such bargains as is said
to have been made with the candidate
for mayor: and even IL the women
were ignorant of the law they must at
least have possessed some sense of
propriety that forbade the negotiations
upon which they were entering, IT is
strange how partisan politics in city
elections will sometimes subvert the
conscientious scruples and sense OF
honor of very good people.
To agree to support a candidate at
the polls on condition that II elected
he will use his official power or post
ton to the advantage OF the voter or
of the voters friends or interests Is
forbidden by law. 1t is n crime that
probably works more corruption in
the government of American cities
than any other that could be named
1t Is not only made a crime by law
but 1t is a grave offense against good
morals. A free government cannot
exist where 1t prevails. 1t is a crime
that begets host of others, and
those who are charged with the en-
forcement of the law would do well to
take steps for It's prevention. 1t would
be an awful thing to see bevy of
ladies' heavily fined and sent TO the
State prison for a term of years; yet
this is just what is likely to happen If
they don't quit trying to buy pledges
from candidates. to be paid for in
/ votes
