The Union Depot.

In this issue of The C l o b will be
found petition signed by over 100 re-
tail dealers Of ST. Paul, to the Cham
Der of Commerce of st. Paul, soliciting
the aid of that body in the direction
of locating a general or union pas
senger station at some other place
than in the ugly hole at the foot Of
Sibley street. There is not another
city in the country, Of it's size and i'm
portance, possessing so mean depot ia
cilities as the city Of St. Paul. The
truth may just as we'll be announced
now in Its fullness.
The retail merchants speak for them
selves in this petition: and they are
nightly in earnest. 1t is not pleasant
for st. Paul newspaper to advertise
gratuitously the advantages of Mime
apolis over st. Paul as a retail CEN
ter; but it is fact that, owing to the
Indifference of the railroad companies
regarding their passenger terminal ia
cilities here, st. Paul is a sufferer in
contrast. St. Paul. and not Minneap-
oils, Is the terminal point of roads
linked with the transcontinental trans
portation system Of the country. Under
the present arrangement of things ST.
Paul is nothing more than a dumping
ground and a sort Of fgurehead in
connection with traffic. 1t Is time that
it should become recognized as a CEN
ter, and that the railroad companies,
with their headquarters here, should
appreciate the Importance Of their re-
lationship to this community
IF the nPnDle do not for y, on,
selves, the railroad people will certain
ly never speak for them. There Is moth
ing which St. Paul needs today more
than a central depot, and the railroad
companies themselves ought to recog-
nize that fact. We might go further
and say that many of their officials do
recognize the fact. All the union depot
people can do is to extend the front
of their establishment to a line with
Sibley street. What good will that do?
At present, vehicles can be stacked in
the hollow ground in front of the en-
trance. Where can those vehicles stack
themselves when the building lines out
flush with Sibley street?
How can the Union depot COMPANY
introduce any more tracks than those
street car facilities by putting an end
to their present depot?
The proposition is clearly presented
to the railroad companies to establish
the central depot In some more avail
able place. The plot of land at East
Seventh and Kittson streets has been
suggested. There have been hints to
the effect that the grade at that point
would not admit of sufficient level
space for the stacking of cars. Any
one Who knows anything on the sub-
ject knows that is a mere pretense. If
the railroad companies are disposed to
meet the wishes Of the community with
respect to the change of q location of
the union depot, there is no engineering
feature impossible in connection with
the proposed site. Furthermore. there
is no real estate boom scheme associat-
ed with the suggestion. The entire
plan for improvement has direct refer
ence to the large benefit to the city
that must accrue from such a change.
and the railroad companies have in this
case an opportunity to show Just how
much interest they maintain in con-
nectfon with the terminal station of
the city Of st. Paul.

EPISTLES TO ST. PAUL.

A very stylishly dressed woman with q
pug dog in her arms boarded an interurban
car In front of the Ryan hotel Friday The
conductor stopped her and said that dogs
were not allowed on the cars. but she pro-
duced a permit to carry the animal. The
car filled up by the time it was ready to
start. and there was only standing room when
the Ninth and Wabasha corner was reached.
At that point a very much over dressed he
person got aboard and took a standing POSI-
ton along side the lady with the dog. He
stared at the lady. but she didn't see him.
For seven miles of the dis.an over he
tried to attract her attention, and a last
resort he poked one yelow-gloved hand at
the beast that sat in her lap The dog
snapped at the finger and growed. The fellow
was startled. but he had succeeded in calling
the attention of the lady, and she gave him
look that ought to have been a warning.
1t wasn't. for he presently began to torment
the dog again. He poked his finger at the
little brute. and when the dog growed he
growled In return and bestowed some praise
on the looks Of the beast. He smiled at the
lady. and again showed his finger at the
dog. The pug barked and snapped at him
just as the car stopped. and it was perfectly
still. He gave little bark in imitation Of
the dog and snapped his teeth. Then the
woman got rid Of him. She said, in a voice
perfectly audible all over the car:
Don't you dare bite my dog"

ONE EFFECT 1T MAY HAVE.


Resignation of w. H. Newman and
the Rate Difficulty.
1t is aid that the resignation of W. H.
Newman from the second vice presidency OF
the Great Northern railway will cause no
further effort to be made to settle the con-
troversy between the Canadian Pacific and
the American roads.
The Great Northern, through the unyield-
ing position of Mr.. Newman, has always
stood in the way Of a submission Of the
questions in dispute to arbitration and it Is
thought that his successor may hold differ
ent views as to the wisdom of refusing arbi-
tration. An agreement may then be reached
to refer the whole dispute to the interstate
commerce commission as arbitrators

what We Are Going Into.

From the Boston Herald.
Possibly 1t would be well for independent
Cuba IL she could always be assured of as
capable despot as Gomez, but the chances
are that in the revolutions that would occur
the life, property and well-being of the peo-
pie would not be much better protected. or
the opportunities for industrial development
be much wider, than they have been under
the tyrannical control of the Spaniards. An
alternative is to consider Cuba as a depen-
by species Of pro-consular control This
would be largely to the advantage Of those
Of the Cuban people who are not aspiring to
become dictators, but for the people of the
United States 1t would be a terrible burden
to carry. leading to constant msunderstand-

1t is worth noting that, while ardent
patriots are selling war material to the
government at fancy figures, there
comes from the National Park bank Of
New York city an offer to put upon
the market. through it's five thousand
corresponding banks. any war bonds
the government may issue for popular
subscription, without cost to the treas
ury. This is somewhat at variance
with the conception Of banks which the
demagogue delights to spread before
his fear-stricken audiences, appalled, by
the prospect of enslavement by the
capttalistic class. whose bowels know
no mercy and whose rapacity is bound
less. That any one e4of these should be
patriotic. should make any sacrifice for
the commonwealth,ss should look on gov
ermnent as anything but a mine to be
worked to the utmost is, to the
demagogue and his dupes. an incon-
ceivable thing. n ~
