Kansas City Times: Society unques-
tionably captured the white house at
the last election. In consequence the
present administration is frantically
aristocratic. This passion for high So
ciety, cropping out in hundred places
is to be advertised to the world by
the division of congressman into care
fully constituted groups for white
house entertainment purposes. In this
way Mr.. Mckinley will be able to save
his noble friends of the east from all
contact with the riff-raff. The plan
evolved by Mr.. Mckinley and ]. Addi-
son Porter. ESQ.,. will work beautifully
at social functions. 1t will enable Mr..
Mckinley to make display before the
nobility and wear out his old clothes
before the rabble. And If the common
herd INDUCES in feelings of resentment
it contains only few million more
voters than the nobility and not one
thousandth as many heavy subscrib-
ers to Republican campaign corrup-
ton funds.

Boston Advertiser: The fact is there

generally abusing populists as indi-
viduals. Those who really know
something about them. ''by and large"
know that in multitudes of instances
they are sober, industrious, reading
church-going, peace-loving citizens:
that they maintain often by heroic self
imposed privations, free public schools
OF more than average excellence; that
they are good neighbors, lovers Of law
and order, who, even in hard times,

PERCY PEPOON.
Desks Needed by Congressm on.

Philadelphia Record: Speaker Reed
again speaks of the desks in the house
Of representatives as serious obstruc-
tion to business. Members of the house
are engaged at their desks in private
correspondence when they should be
attending Ito the public affairs that
come before them. Since a steering
committee, of which the speaker is
chairman, cuts out all the business and
decides what measures deserve con-
sideration and what shall be tabooed,
the house has well-nigh ceased to be
a deliberate body. In such condition
of things the average member would
find the time hanging heavily on his
hands If he should be deprived Of his
convenient desk.

All the financial experts now adj
init that the Dingley tariff is a failnr,
In producing revenue. The deficit con.
tinues month by month and is likely te
continue. OF course this was to have
been expected. Tariffs framed to shut
out importations by system of heavy
duties must impair rather than in
crease the revenue. The plea that the
advance importations Of wool and 9TH
er articles, to forestall the new tariff
caused loss in receipts enough TO az.
count for the deficit is ridiculous as
well as false. The loss of duties from
this source is only fractional part
OF the amount Of the monthly deficit

This swelled the receipts so that IL tho
books are cunningly juggled, it will an
pear that there is surplus instead of
deficit in the regular revenue, AS
one correspondent expresses it, SO long
as the government has railroads to sell
the receipts may come up to the ex-
penses. But when that source of sun
ply is exhausted the dimensions of the
deficit will loom up apparently greater
than before. 1t would be the part OF
wisdom for Mckinley to look around
now for other sources of revenue. In

Garbage Gathering.

Health Officer Heilscher said that
warm weather is coming ON and some
action should be taken in regard to
gathering garbage. He suggested two
plans-the city to let the contract to
garbage gatherers, or the city to fur
nish team and hire a man to gather
the garbage. Both plans were tried
last year and the latter was found to
be the most satisfactory.
Aid. Petersen conceded with what
DR., Heilscher had said, saying that
the contractors will gather only what
they can feed. while the city man
takes everything.
Or. Heilschier said that the con-
tract system had cost S35 month,
while by the other plan a man and
team were secured at 1925 day.
SIAld. Bradley moved that bids be
received for gathering the entire gar
bage of the city for five months. This
was carried, and the bids will be
opened at the next meeting.
Aid. Bradley said that West Fourth
street leading to the park is impassi-
BILE and that there is much complaint.
He said that thirty foot driveway
for so we'll travelled street is too mar
row. 1t should be Immediately wild
ened to fifty feet at the least. The
city should do this. He moved that
the street icommittee, street commits
sioner and city engineer meet on the
street at 100 a. m. Monday and take
such action as seems best.
Engineer Thompson said that he
laid out the road. 1t was not graveled
as had been intended, and he had been
considering it's repair, but had delay
ed on account Of the proposed extern
sion of theswater mains.
The motion was carried, amended
so that a report shall be made at the
next meeting, and the power to act
stricken out.
Aid. Bradley called attention to the
bad condition of the corner of Sixth and
Hickory streets. The matter was re-
ferred to the street committee to re-
port at the next meeting.
Aid. Bradley brought up the matter
of opening some new streets through
the former Willard property in West
Mankato. This was also referred to
the street committee.
On motion of Aid. Fritz, the city
engineer was instructed to make an
estimate of the cost of improving
Poplar street to Mound avenue, and
also Minnesota street.
