PLAINTIFF WAS LATE.
Her Cases Dismissed by Her Attorney
and Then Reinstated.

The two suits Of Lizzie Kohne VS..
August Ramspot, for conversion of
property to recover 1925, and to re-
cover s136 for wages alleged to be due
and money loaned. were set for Mon
day in the municipal court at 1000
a. m. and HOO a. m. The plaintiff
did not put in an appearance, and
after a long delay and continuance
until after dinner her attorney, VIM.
N. Plymat, moved that the cases be
dismissed, and this was granted. The
plaintiff arrived at about five o'clock,
and then the attorneys called at the
court room again and by consent of
the defendants attorney, VIM. f.
Hughes, the cases were placed back
upon the calendar. No time was set
for their trial.

A GOOD PLACE FOR THE POLICE
TO VISIT.

We understand that it has been the
practice for some time back, on Sun
days, and occasionally on week days,
for crowd to gather in the woods on
the hill, near the Guenther hill road,
and proceed to make "Rome howl, !"
to the great objection and disturbance
of the residents in that vicinity. 1t
is claimed that not only beer drinking
is INDUCED in, but that a campfire is
started and neighboring gardens de-
spoiled OF vegetables, and it is even
alleged that hen roosts have been
visited and relieved of their tenants
by some of the frequenters OF this
place. We are told that the crowd
usually commences to gather there
Saturday nights and prolong their
"banquet" until the bright hours of
Monday morning, making the nights
hideous with their hurrah. If what
has come to our notice is true, it
would seem that the police authori-
ties ought to take steps to abate the
nuisance and relieve the residents of
that vicinity of the weekly disturb
ance in their midst.

OUR IRON TRADE ABROAD.

The London Times says that the
British iron trade is considerably
alarmed over the inroads that Ameri-
can iron and steel is making in the
English market. Steel rails for build
ing English railways have of late
been imported to considerable extent
from this country. And American
rails for electric railways are also in
vading the English market. When it
was first proposed to put a duty on
rails, the cry was raised by the free
trade element that rails could not be
manufactured in this country. That
we did not have the facilities for so
doing. But the duty was levied, and
American enterprise and ingenuity
has pushed the matter to a point
where we are commencing to furnish
the world with steel rails. The
English are at a loss to understand
how it is that Americans can under
sell them, and attribute it to our low
freight rates, which are only about
three mills per ton per mile, as against
a penny to three half pence in Eng
land. But the cheapness in freight
rates here, is more then Offset by the
great distance over which the ore
must be transported to the furnace
and the finished product to the coast
and across the ocean. The st. Paul
Dispatch states that "a more import
ant feature of our situation is the
great size of furnace-plants in this
country, the English blast-furnace
being usually small in capacity, while
there are many of them. In the iron
business there are many fixed charges
which do not increase with an in
crease of the output, it being possible
to double the product with much less
than double the cost. A furnace with
a regular market for 100000 tons OF
pig iron per annum, can make an ad'
ditional $4,000 tons at less than hall
! the cost of the first hundred. 1t will
pay the manufacturer to produce that
extra $4,000 and sell it below the
actual price per ton of the first 100,
900, if the additional $4,000 can be
dumped" in some new market in the
possession of rival concern. Thu:
! the American is able to sell pig iror
in England for less than it costs the
Englishman with his small furnace tt
make it. If England had protective
tariff, such competition on the part o
Americans would be impossible. Gu
protective tariff makes it impossible
for the English manufacturer to re
taliate in kind in our markets."

THERE are indications Of growth
toward violence on the part of the
coal mine strikers. So far they have
carefully refrained from such acts,
and as consequence have kept the
sympathy of the people in their great
struggle, and they will be likely to so
retain it, if they pursue the course
thus followed. Considerable feeling
has been stirred up in some quarters
because certain miners have declined
to go out, and trouble has many times
been narrowly averted. While the
strain grows more severe as the con-
test is prolonged, yet it is to be most
earnestly hoped that cool judgment
will prevail and the great acts of vio-
lence that have marked former con-
tests of this kind may in this one be
avoided. In such struggle the
strikers have nothing to gain, but all
to lose in resorting to violent
measures

DEATH RELEASED HIM.

Jacob E. Leonard, Of Nicollet
county, who was last spring convicted
of forging pension papers, died in the
penetentiary at Saltwater Sunday
night of cancer of the stomach and
liver. He was Y years of age, and
had served about three months of a
term of one year for forgery. An eff
fort was being made to secure his par
don, in order that he might die at
home, but death opened the prison
bars before presidential clemency
could arrive. His son took the re-
mains home yesterday.

ACCORDING to the Scientific Anaera-
can the consumption of sugar in the
United States for 1896 was 1898, S19
tons, equal to 63 pounds per capita Of
the population. Of this, the domestic
production was 354, 500 tons, and the
importation 1,739,313 tons; this is
equal to five tons of imported sugar,
for each ton of the home product.
During the past ten years only one
tenth of the sugar consumed has been
produced in this country, and in that
time the people of this country have
paid out for imported sugar the sum
of 81, 500, 100000. For 1896, one-fourtE
of the sugar importations came from
Germany.

silent regarding the failure OF silver
to control the price of wheat this

is the latter fact that is so irritating
