heatwoIe and the Deadly Breach.

While the Republican organs keep
grinding away at the old tune that
there is no danger in any OF the con-
gressional districts of the state, with
the exception of the Sixth and Seventh,
there comes out Of the Third district
the assurance that Joel HeatwoIe's seat
in congress is in quite as much danger
as is that of the present member from
the Seventh. HeatwOle's ssat is jeopar-
died to a great extent by the neglt-
gence Of his own party managers.
While Mr.. Heatwole was gaining fame
as the handsomest man in the house he
should have seen to it that the vote
which was so largely instrumental in
bringing about his election two years
and four years ago was kept on the
voting lists by being naturaliZed.
An inquiry into the state of the vote
in the district shows that HeatWOle
was strong in the Scandinavian settle
ments. This condition was the result
of the care that was given to this very
large voting element by the local Re-
publican leaders. In those districts the
county officials considered themselves
safe enough, and they made no effort to
get the vote naturalized; they assumed
that they were safe in any event, and
they did not propose to pay for the nat
uralization of a vote that they did not
deem essential to local success. The
voters themselves do not appear to
have had sufficient Republican enthusi-
asm to pay for second papers in order
to secure their right to vote, and in the
district there are some thousands Of
Scandinavian residents who will not be
able to cast their ballots under<the new
constitutional provision.
These same conditions do not obtain
in other districts where the foreign
born is a large element. The German
born citizens have been in the state for
many years, and there is no consider
able proportion of their numbers dis
franchised by the constitutional
amendment Only the newly arrived
SCanGinavians are left outside of the
franchise limit, and it has come home
to Heatwole's managers that a serious
and almost certainly fatal mistake was
made. The Third district is as certain
ly lost to the Republicans as is the
Seventh or the Sixth.

Those Street Signs.

10 Inc st. PauI GlODe:
In Sundays G lob e I read a letter from
the 9. Neunann Sign Manufacturing COM
pany, in regard to the action of the board
of public works, in letting the contract for
street signs. While l am thoroughly in ac-
improperly of giving our city work to East
ern manufacturers. when the bid of a local
firm is as low lower, yet | don't quite
agree with Mr. Neumann as to the cost of the
wooden backs and 1xings." Being a manu-
facturer of sign boards and other woodwork
l am in a position to furnish those wooden
backs" at a much lower price than the one
which Mr.. Neumann allows the board Of
public works in the calculation he makes;
and, by the way, why did not the board
advertise for bids on those wooden backs
and filings which, it appears, are going
to cost the city as much as the signs proper?
firm "snap|
Until the board of public works answers
this question In a manner satisfactory to
the taxpayers and voters it might be we'll
for Capt. McCardy to withhold his signature
from the contract for street signs, and, while
we have the matter under discussion would
1t not be well to dispense with the iron and
enamel altogether, and paint the name Of
the street on the wooden backs" thus giving
the sign painters of the city a chance to
earn an honest dollar, and which would
doubtless result in q saving Of several hun
dred dollars to the taxpayers. Keep the
money spent for a necessary public improve
ment at home and create good harmonious
feeling all around. The aesthetic ambition OF
the board Of public works may be very graft
flying to its friends, but it Is too expensive
for the average citizen and payer Of taxes

Commanding Public Attention.

Whenever a man has something good to say
he generally gets a chance to say it in the
United States, because the newspapers are on
the alert for men with original ideas and eX
pressions. Let a man be an important one
in any Of the great walks Of life, in finance,
in business, in politics, in reltgion-it mat
ters not what-and the people are glad to read
what he has to say, to ponder over and dis
cuss and assimilate it. Such man Is James
J. HILL Of the Great Northern railroad, whose
views we discussed recently at length in these
columns. That interview with Mr.. Hill on the
subject Of lack Of ships in which to carry the
merchandise offering to his railroad has been
quoted in all parts of the United States. Some
of the comments are favorable others are IN
favorable, but wherever the subject impresses
a reader who has never before been i'm
pressed with it, in that man we have new ad-
vocate for a true blue American merchant
marine.
The glamor Of the American flag in the
distant seas Of the world, floating from the
peaks and mast-heads and taffrails of all
types Of vessels, the romance of the sea, the
deeds Of valor Of the past on that mobile
element the adventures and the glories of to-
day afioat, all combine to create picture
upon which the average human being cannot
look without being warmed up and enthused.
Let our men in the public eye therefore
note what is popular; let them take notice
that the people gladly read Of adventures. the
success and the failures afloat that the sub
iect is an attractive one, and then present it
to them in the manner they will be pleased
with and they will find that their popularity
will increase and what they say will be
more read and more thought about.-Seaboard.
