Senator = CHllSin Makes His, Peac
With Organized Labor.

. Senator, Cullin Makes His, Peace
With Organized Labor.
Senator w. e. Culkin. of Wright
county, has been in the Twin Cities
for two days making his peace with
the labor people for supporting Labor
Commissioner Powers and for his at
titude on other labor questions before
the late legislature. He has been tell
ing the people through the Minneapo-
lis papers about his record in the SEN
ate and last night got the ear Of the
federation council of the Minnesota
Federation of Labor with the result
that the following resolutions were
adopted:
Whereas, The federation council Of the Min
nesota Federation of Labor, at meeting held
Wednesday evening" April 20. adopted reso-
buttons opposing the appointment OF Senator
W. E. Cull1n, as commissioner of the United
States land office at Duluth or to any federal
office whatever, owing to his attitude on meas-
TRES before the late legislature affecting or
ganized labor; and,
Whereas, At a meeting of the council held
Monday evening May 10, said Senator Culkin
appeared and satisfactorily explained his
course on the measures alluded to- and also
pledged his support in behalf of the laboring
classes in future; therefore,
Resolved That after careful consideration
of the facts in the case, and being convinced
that said opposition was not caused by per
sonal animosity to labor's interests, the fed
Grafton council hereby Withdraws all oppO-
sition to the appointment of Senator Culkin
to any Office to which he may aspire.
Resolved further, That copies OF these reso,
buttons be forwarded to affiliated central
bodies in the state; also to the president of
the United States and to the senators and
congressman from Minnesota.

WEST SIDE PROTEST
VIII Be Heard at Mass Meeting
Tonight.

The Sixth ward is fully aroused in
regard to holding the Humboldt high
school, a possibility of whose destruc-
ton has been learned from the recent
conferences on school affairs. The peo-
pie across the river have school OF
which they are proud, numbering at
present 200 pupils with fattering en-
couragements for a larger attendance
at the opening Of the new year in
September.
The laboratories and libraries are
kept completely means of, the. annual
state aid of $500: for the encourage
ment of high schools. The Hendricks
Garfield, Douglas and Lafayette
schools, besides its own Eighth grade,
are all tributary to it, while the strong
parochial graded schools on the West
side, which have an enrolment Of 1,5O0
pupils also add to the attendance.
The Sixth ward simply wants to
know why it should be practically cut
off from high school privileges. The
pupils are in strong evidence. It is
claimed there is no suitable space for
them in the Central high school or
sufficient teaching force. The per
capita of expense at the Humboldt
high school Is much below that at the
Central high school. The Sixth ward
wants to know where the true re-
trenchment lies, and will try to as
certain at a mass meeting to be held
tonight in Liederstafel hall, State and
Congress streets.

REBECCA TAYLOR ARRESTED.
Bound Over Charged With Violating
the Postal Laws.

the POStal Laws
Miss Rebecca Taylor, the editor Of O
weekly publication designated as
TRUTH" was arrested yesterday fore
on the charge Of sending obscene
matter" through the mails. The COM
plant was drawn and sworn to by U.
S. District Attorney Stringer who
charges Miss Taylor with depositinE
on. Saturday copies Of the publication
known as TRUTH" which publication
contained obscene matter"
Miss Taylor was arrested In the Of
flee Of the district attorney. She had
gone there to inquire why Mr.. Stringer
had advised the post office officials
not to send through the malls copies
Of Truth published April 30. which
copies Miss Taylor had mailed on
Saturday last. Immediately upon her
arrest Miss Taylor appeared before
L. s. Commissioner Spencer. who con-
tinued the examination until 2 p. M
and allowed Miss Taylor to go on her
own recognizance until that time.
At the sheur named, Miss Taylor was
on hand, accompanied by DR.. and Mrs.
C. G. Higbee. Asked if she had an
attorney Miss Taylor said she would
conduct her own defense. The prose-
cution first called Capt. Geo. w. Hard
acre, superintendent Of delivery in the
post office, who testified that Miss
Taylor mailed a bundle Of the news
papers in question last Saturday
morning.
Miss Taylor ross-examined Capt.
Hardacre and afterwards Mr.. Negaard.
the superintendent of mails, with a
view to making it appear that these
officials were instructed to examine
Truth with view to Withholding It
from the mails. The prosecution rested
and Miss Taylor called Postmaster
Smith and sought to adduce testimony
to the effect that Mr.. Smith did not
consider that the paper in question,
which he had read, contained matter
that rendered it unavailable. District
Attorney Stringer objected to opinions
being received as testimony, and the
objection was sustained.
Miss Taylor then called the district
attorney himself to the stand.
Miss Taylor-When did you first see
the paper?
Mr.. Stringent object to the ques-
ton.
Commissioner Spencer - Objection
overruled.
Mr.. Stringer-I saw the paper last
week and wrote out this complaint be-
cause the article was not fit to go
through the mails.
The defense rested and Miss Taylor
at once began to sum up. She main
tanned that there was not a word in
the article at which any lady in the
land could take offense. She thought
that she was being made the victim
of malicious prosecution. Her sole
purpose was to preserve morality in
the public schools and yet the United
States government wanted to punish
her for so doing.
Mr.. stringer spoke briefly, after
which Commissioner Spencer said that
in his opinion the matter was obscene
and he would, therefore, hold the de-
PENDANT to the grand jury in the sum
Of $3.50.
Miss Taylor soon furnished a bond
with Capt H. A. Castle and Mrs. c.
G. Higbee as sureties.

THREE OUT OF TWENTY.
State High school Board Critical in
It's Dema nds.

But three out of twenty applica-
tions for permits to teach special work
in high schools were favorably acted
upon yesterday by the state high school
board, consisting of Gov. D. M. Clough,
President Northrop and Dean Pattee,
of the state university, and Supt. Pen
dergast, of the department of public
instruction. The three certificates
were granted for special reasons and
for limited time only.
High School inspector Alton, Of Min
neapolis, was appointed to draw up
rules and regulations embodying the
course Of study for these several high
school annexes, for which this special
work in the common branches is done
for the benefit of those who wish to
be teachers The state now gives $500
to each high school district, which en-
ploys an extra teacher to do this spe-
cial work for the period of year.
These teachers must be declared compe-
tent before such certificates are issued.
Those teachers holding professional
state certificates or advanced normal
school diplomas are considered compe-
tent on general principles.

POLICE PENSION FUND.
Money Left, but No Trustees to- Dis
penSe 1t.

The trustees of the police pension
fund did not hold meeting yesterday.
This was owing to an opinion from the
corporation attorney. which informed
Mayor Doran, as chairman Of the board,
that the trustees were through. The
law repeating the act Of 1889. under
which the fund and board was orga-
nized, was approved by the governor
April 6, 1897, and since that time, &C
cording to the opinion of the attorney.
there was no board. There is about
$500 at present in the fund coming
from 10 per cent of fines collected in
the police court during February and
March. It Is possible that this sum
will be distributed to the pensioners
on account of March pension. by a reso-
luton of thescouncil. If not the amount
will be put into the fund, which Comp
troller McCardy is said to be husband
ing to astonish the taxpayers with
next January, and at the same time
boom himself for reelection.
