The People Want to Know.


We are not out for office; we
neither expect to be an alder
man nor have the job of hand
ling the city's cash; neither
does the editor aspire to the
office of mayor. But in regard
to Mayor Truelsen's reform
campaign, we must admit we

the present body of doing:

Burning their Fingers.

Burning their Fingers.
How the gold trust has played
the bankers for suckers! The
Rothschilds and their "pals'
have upwards of $4,000
100000 of gold locked away in
their vaults. The nine thousand
banks in the United States have
only $14O,OOO,O00. For every
dollar of the securities locked
away by the Rothschild syndi-
cate thereis somewhere from two
to four times as much of prop
erty that has practically perma-
nent value. Depreciation of their
pledges below the value Of their
securities is inherently impossible
so long as the foundation of So
ciety are not completely broken
up. But what have the banks
got? Personal security, chattel
mortgages, secondrate stocks
and bonds-p1edges, in short, of
all kinds that in the nature OF
things are the first to diminish
in value. Forty-two billion of
debts are all dependent upon
$14O,OO0,000 for payment.
With the cream of the security
all in the hands of the Roths-
childs is it any wonder that the
banks can't "play even?" They
assisted to bring about the ruin
of their patrons and now the
fabric of credit they have under
mined is tumbling about their
ears. They have undertaken to
pull the chestnuts of the gold
conspiracy from the fire, and
that they are burning their own
fingers is plainly apparent. For
what they are receiving may the
Lord make them thankful.

aldermen were

last spring, aldermen were
elected to office simply because
they openly avowed, if elected,
to fight the purchase of the
water and gas plants.
We advocated the purchase
in the recent election because
we thought it was practically
the only thing the city could,
or even would do, and would
be cheaper in the long run.
But that is neither here nor
there. Men who obtain office
at the hands of the people un-
der certain conditions and
promises should adhere as
closely to those pledges as pos
sible and not, as soon as the
office is obtained, throw over
board all and every considera-
ton of the people they are serv-
ing.
Such has been the case with
our present honorable (?) coun-
Gil From the republicans we
experimenting better, but, from
those who are washed into
office on reform wave, the
people and voters do look for
something different. They GER
tain1y do not expect to have
their wishes set aside without
good and sufficient reasons.
What reason can the present
aldermen give to their masters,
the people-the aldermen are
but the servants of the voters
for advocating the purchase OF
the gas and water plants when
they were placed in office by
the people who were adverse
to such a course. And, we re-
peat again, these same officials
obtained their position only
through the sworn enmity to
such a scheme.
Furthermore, we would as
quickly ask the same question
of the official servant who was
elected to office by people adj
vocating the purchase of this
said plant at the comPany's

JOSEPH G. HELn.

The Republican Nominee for the
COMPREHENSIVE.
Joseph G. Helm, whose por-
trait appears on the front cover
Of this paper, is the republican
candidate for comptroller. His
experience as county and city
official makes him the most
available candidate for the posi-
ton.
The county of St. Louis nor
the city of Duluth has never had
a more faithful and conscientious
official than Joseph c. Helm, the
gentleman who aspires to the
position of city comptroller and
who has the republican endorse
ment for that position.
Mr.. Helm is a native of Mime
sofa, and is what might be called
a pioneer of Duluth, having
spent nearly a quarter of a Gen.
tury in this city. He served two
years as alderman from his ward,
although the honor was con-
ferred upon him unsolicited, and
two years as a member OF the
board of county commissioners
from the Third district. Both of
these positions he filled with
honor to himself and the entire
satisfaction of his constituents.
In all business matters Mr..
Helm is far-seeing and methodi-
cal, and his experience in county
and city matters particularly
fits him fol: this important posi-
ton. He is thoroughly convers-
ant with every branch OF the
city and county affairs, and the
position of comptroller demands
some one who has such a knoWl-
edge:
It is conceded by everyone that
Mr.. Helm made one of the best
commissioners that ever served
the county. AS a gentleman OF
thorough integrity and upright
ness Mr.. Helm stands above re-
proach, and the affairs of this
important office in Mr.. Helms
hands will be a guarantee that
they will be conducted to the
best interests OF the tax payer

LOOKS LIKE MORE TROUBLE.
TURKISH wARSHIpS SAIL FOR
CRETAN WATERS.
Fears Expressed That It May Lead
to a Collision With the In
ternationaI Fleet.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. "a dis
patch from the Dardanelles late to-day
announces that the second naval di-
vision of the Turkish fleet, consisting of
seven warships, commanded by Hari
Pasha, has sailed for the Island of
Crete.
Fears are expressed here that the de-
parture of the Turkish naval division
may lead to a collision with the inter
national fleet in Cretan waters, in view
of the announcement of the Admirals
that they have decided to oppose by
force the landing of Turkish reinforce
ments in the Island of Crete.
1t has been reported for some time
that the Turkish Government was con-
templating landing additional Turkish
troops in Crete, and on Thursday last
the Admira1s in command of the for
eign fleets in Cretan waters held a con-
ference to oppose by force the landing
of Turkish reinforcements in Crete
They notified Ismael Bey, the Turkish
Civil Governor, of the decision arrived
at, but the Turkish Governor replied
that he could not accept such a decis-
ion, apparently taking the ground that
the Porte would persist in it's intention
to reinforce the Turkish garrison in
Crete.
Grumbchow Pasha starts at once,
bearing a letter from the Sultan to the
Kaiser. He stops on the way to COM
municate with the King of Roumania.
His mission is considered of consider
able Importance at this juncture.
From present indications the Powers
will be compelled to send another ulti-
matum to Turkey. The action of Tew-
fix Pasha in submitting a series of
amendments to the draft of the treaty
of peace completed at Saturdays sit
ting of the ambassadors is regarded as
meaning q delay of two or three weeks
in the signing of the preliminaries of
peace, and it is thought further it will
possibly neeessitate another threat in
the nature of an ultimatum.
The ambassadors are determined to
maintain the wording of their draft of
the treaty of peace wothout any
change.

DYNAMITE OUTRAGE.
Attempt to Blow Up a Tenement
House at Hudson, Mass.

HUDSON (Mass.), Aug. 3.-An at

up a section of a tenement house owned
by the l.. d. Apsley Rubber Company,
in which several of the workmen en-
ployed at the factory in the place of
the striking help have been boarding.
The explosion, it is thought, was caused
by a dynamite bomb placed under the
tenement occupied by Mrs Clark. The
piazza was demolished, portions of the

upon the action or non-action Of Con-

1t is said at the State Department
that no special commissioner has been

and that any person representing him.
self as such has no authority to do so.
The interests of the United States in
that quarter of the Pacific are believed
to be entirely safe in the care of United
States Minister Sewell, who is now on
the ground.
AT the Navy Department an even
more explicit denial of the story that
the flag was to be hoisted was to be
obtained. 1t was said that Admiral
Beardslee's orders contemplated a
landing in emergencies to preserve the
status quo and the landing in that case
would not be for a longer period of
time than was necessary to restore
conditions to their former shape. 1t
was said that as President Mckinley
had referred the whole matter to Con-
gress along wit 6 the annexation treaty,
it would not be courteous to that body
for the Executive to act of its own
its will. 1t wa1 further said that there
was no truth in the story that the bat
tleship Oregon was under orders to sail
to Honolulu.
MINISTER MUROTA FOR PEACE.
CITY OF MEXICO, Aug. BIN an
interview on the Acknowledgements
controversy, Yoshfbuni Murota, Japan
csc Minister to Mexico, made the fol-
lowing statement:
There are many Japanese in Hawaii
and they have rights which might be
interfered with in the event of annex
alton. What if the United States re-
spected these rights? In such a case
there might be no objection on the part
of my Government. However, Hawaii
is an independent country in the Pa
cific, and Japan would prefer to have
it kept independent.
Even if the United States should
carry out their policy of non-interfer-
ence in European or Eastern affairs, in
case the islands should become a part
of the American Union, some contin-
gency might arise forcing them to
change their policy of neutrality For
instance Honolulu is an important set
tlement, and If America had any queS-
ton with Great Britain the possession
of these islands in the Pacific might
lead as an accident in colonial politics
to an expansion of the American do
main far beyond their present inten-
tions. This is the reason we prefer to
have Hawaii wholly independent
The Minister said that all talk about
an alliance between Japan and Spain
against the United States is erroneous.
No such thing is contemplated. Japan
owes its modern renaissance to the
United States, through whose efforts
the country was thrown open to the
world. We consider the United States
in that sense our mother country
Even if the United States were to
make a present of Hawaii to Japan it
would not be accepted. The Japanese
have no ambition to annex Hawaii. and.
as I said, would rather see the islands
independent and free

Three Messages Sent Over One
Wire Simultaneously.

graph wire was successfully operated
