The Travelling Men Resene Articles

The Travelling Men Resene Articles
in Pioneer Press and Dispatch.
To The St Paul Globe:
In yesterdays Pioneer Press and other Twin
City daily newspapers 1 noticed an article
purporting to come from the 'Eustis Tray
cling Mems club" and today 1 notice an
article in the st. Paul Dispatch regarding
bill on interchangeable mileage etc., the
passage of which was opposed by John Lind
while member of congress, on the ground
that it was special privilege 1 suspect this
is another attempt of partisan business mon
to again coerce their servants, 'the trav-
cling men," into their way of thinking, and
these articles expect are but the forerunner
Of what is to come. Regarding the first
mentioned article, which is signed by J. A
SHEPPARD as chairman of this club, it might
be well to call attention to who this travelling
man is.
If not mistaken, this is Sheppard, general
agent in the state of Minnesota for Gaar
Scott threshing machines, with an Office on
First street. Minneapolis, and cannot in any
sense Of the word be styled a travelling man,
although he may be member Of some trav-
cling mems insurance order by reason of his
having at one time been a travelling man. II
the balance of the men belonging to this club
are of the same style as this one then the
club is wrongly named.
Regarding the article appearing in the Dis
patch, I, for one, protest that the article in
one particular is unfair, and the other "un-
true and 'will give the following reasons:
l. Travelling men, as a rule are opposed tn
special privilege laws
2. Every fair-nlinded travelling man would
have voted as John Lind did on that bill
8. The bill would not save the travelling
man one cent. as these expenses are horse
by the party or firm for whom he travals.
4. The Knights of the Grip" are not
unit against John Lind.
5. 1 am travelling man that travels twelve
months in the year, and will vote for John
Lind for governor of Minnesota and l am
acouaionted with more travelling men who
will do likewise than who will vote far
Eustis. Very little be accomplished by
travelling men at best when it comes to in
fuencing votes for either party in politics,
and business. like politics and religion, or
water and oil, will not mix well. But you
may be assured that if John Lind is not the
next governor of Minnesota, it cannot be
charged to the travelling mems influence Or
votes, that they were lacking in his favor.

his eye is something new in Mime
sofa. People hardly know what to
think Of it. If anything is hurting Mr.
Eustis, why does he not send for q
doctor? If he has a tooth or q corn
or leg or anything that is bothering
him, why does he not have it pulled?
People do not go out to political meet,
ings to meet a man who will fall upon
them and cry down their necks and
muss them up in that sort of way. If
Mr.. Eustis cannot control himself, he
should leave his onion at home
or course this is a matter for the
Republican committee to take in hand
and correct, but The GIob is so
friendly to Judge Steele and his as
sistants that 1t suggests that Mr. Eus-
tbs be ordered to quit weeping or that
ne be followed up by a plumber to
make repairs Of the leakage of the
water mains. We cannot afford to be
naoded out this way just as a hard,
cold winter is coming on.

Who Writ the Article +?

There appeared in the editorial COL
umns of our esteemed contemporary,
the P. P, the other morning,
an article which told us all about it
that is to say, all about the political
conditions which make, or ought in the
mind of the writer to make, against
the election Of John Lind for governor.
Now, the ordinary editorial writer,
Willie he may be more or less pleased
with the privilege of appearing in lead
ed BREWER, does not go around town
telling what the effect Of his utterances
will be, in advance Of the time when
they are shot off. Your cool, calculat-
ing, circumspect writer waits bit,
aid then, if he sees holes in the skillet
at which he has aimed, he naturally
declares that he blew them therein.
Now, it so happened that word went
around town that this particular arti-
Gle was intended 10 blow holes into
them-meaning the Democrats. We
were at loss to know who might be
this skillful gunner, and what might
be the number of his shot
Upon perusing and reperusing the
article we wonder whether we have not
found the author. The gifted Poe
would have taken one Of his many
syllabled words and worked out the re-
suit without hesitation. We have been
led to adopt similar method, and the
result of our investigation leads us to
inquire whether the polysyllabic Hodg-
sen is not involved. The name of no
body else occurs to US who can sling
himself" in four and five-syl!able words
without being 'cast."
Was it Hodgson, the Polysylabic?
And if so, was it not number ten that
he was firing? And did number ten
ever blow holes into anything?

THE PUBLIC MARKET PROBLEM.
Citizens Are Requested to Furnish
Their Views to the Commercial
Climb

The public market problem is now in
fair way of solution. If those interested will
but make known their views medium has
finally been found through which order wi
very shortly be brought out of chaos. The
difficulty has been heretofore that some of
the plans suggested invariably were born of
individual self-interest, and for that reason
1t has been impossible to unite a sufficient
number upon any one proposition to fairly
develop it. The city development committee
Oh the Commercial club has just taken hold
OF the enterprise in a manner which is bound
to succeed. No one is asked to contribute
cent. On the contrary. the object of the
committee Is to see how near it can come 10
carrying out the views of everybody The
preliminary move, therefore, is purely a work
or compilation. Every person interested
whether he is farmer, grocer or commits
sion man, is asked to formulate his ideas as
nearly as he can, write them out and for
ward to the committee. The first thing to
DE ascertained is what the people want AS
fast as these communications come in the
committee will proceed to give them impair
tal consideration, and wherever conflict is
encountered steps will be taken to adjust
diherences between individuals until some
plan satisfactory to a sufficient number to
push the enterprise to a successful termna-
ton shall have been discovered and applied.
All persons interested in a public market
should at once communicate with the city
development committee of the Commercial
club, which is made up Of ten disinterested
business men Of the city, and they may be
assured that their views will receive re-
spectful consideration. Address your c3m-
munications to G. P. Slime, secretary.

himself to prevent his doing further
injury. Hammer was employed in thu
machine shops of the J. s. RoWeil
Manufacturing company He was a
good worker, but at times had spells Of
supposed insanity, the result 1t is said
of religious excitement. His peculiar
ways made him the butt for practical
jokes. Today some one placed some
tacks on stool where he worked and
on which he sat- 1t caused him to get
very angry, and to get into a row with
a fellow workman named Bennett in
Which he got the worst of it. He left
the shop, went to a hardware store
where he rented shot gun, which
was loaded with twenty-five shells, and
taking up his position south of the
main building of the plant, kept every,
one at bay for over an hour, shooting
at the employees through the window.
His brother attempted to mollify him,
when he said:
Get back, or 1 will fix you Also"
d. c. Clark, the engineer, who is his
brother-in-law, tried to stop him, with
no better results. He shot at all who
came in sight.
Finally Lieut.. Arthur Tibbitts, Of
Company K, Second regiment, who has
a reputation for good workmanship
was selected by the marshal to shoot
him in such a manner as to bring him
down without killing him. Lieut.. TTb,
bits shot Hammer in the right shout

when he dropped. He was quickly ar,
rested by the marshal and taken to this

Hispano-American Differences Ar

LONDON Nov. 2.-The Paris correspondent
of the Daily Telegraph says:
1.-THE disagreement between the American
and Spanish peace commissioners, which I'M
der ordinary circumstances, might have
caused alarm throughout Europe, is hardly
noticed owing to the Fashoda affair. The
Spaniards are in a position to know and as
sert that their government will resist the
American demands, and will offer the Philip
pines for a lump sum. If this proposal is
not accepted Spain will recall her commits
sioners and let the Yankees do what they
choose l am assured, however, that a rup-
ture on Friday is improbable. Spain will
endeaver by arguments and appeals to gain
whatever concessions possible, but will not
risk a renewal OF hoStilities."

that the total net inuring to the per-
