Now for Fiapdoodle.

The game of war for politics is being
bravely played. The hundred doubtful
congressional districts which Republi-
can leaders checked off last December
have changed into districts so sure that
now they count on a majority of one
hundred in the next house. In Penn
sylvania the Boss names a candidate
for governor and the mass are adjured,
in the nominating speech, to stand by
the party because it is conducting o.
war. Said the speaker: "The result of
the election will be construed, truly and
properly, either as approving or con-
demning the national administration on
the question of our war. Dare we re-
buke the president of our own choos-
ing? Dare we give to Spain and her
sympathiZers encouragement by even
an apparent blow at our administra-
tion?" And then followed a lot of flap
doodle about passing over the opposi-
ton as Dewey's fleet passed over Ma
Mia mines. The plan adopted last De-
cember is working finely and from now
on until November we may hear from
the stump and read in the papers just
such rhodomontade as the Boss mouth
piece poured out on the Harrisburg
convention.

O'ROURKE. DISCHARGED.
Health Department Fails to Secure
e Conviction.

James O'Rourke, the engineer living at
COS Mississippi street, with whom the health
department had much trouble for nearly two
months. and who was arrested en- the charge
ag breaking quarantine. trisd in the Io-
lice court yesterday before Judge Hine and
discharged
The case was dismissed on the ground that
the prosecution had failed to prove that
C'Reurke had mingled in public while mann
bers of his family were suffering from jiph-
liberia. 1t was shown that O'Rourke vio-
lated the quarantine by leaving his home on
different occasions. but the court he'd that
it was necessary for a conviction to sst3b-
lish that the accused had mingled with other
people, granting the molten of Attorney
Roberts. for the defendant. to dismiss.
After the trial Inspector S nks. of the
health department applied for warrant for
the arrest of Mrs. O'Rourke on the charge
of breaking quarantine by going into court.
Prosecutor Hall took the matter under con-
sideretion.
Assistant Health Commissioner Miller says
the result of the O'Rourke case practical y
dsarms the health department in the mat
ter of enforcing quarantine, as it could rarS-
ly be lroven th=t a person mirg ed tn
others.

Ex-Mayor Doran's Reflections.

In the leisure of the retirement grant
ed him by his fellow partisans from the
cares, tribulations and perplexities of
public station, Mr.. Doran can ponder on
the experience he gained during two
years incumbency of the mayoralty.
His successor, while not a. novice in
public life, is entering on a phase of II
that is new to him and one more diff
hcult than any he has had experience
H. He, too, may benefit by rejecting
upon this predecessors experience.
Mr. Doran went into the mayors Of
nee two years ago with the conception
that he was the mayor of the Republi-
can party and not of the city of St.
Paul. He was to give the city a party
and not business administration.
to facilitate the transaction of the
muitifarious matters in which all had
common interest, but was designed
to give prestige and advantage to any
political party that could succeed in
getting control of it. Mr.. Doran is
not so blamable for holding this con-
ception, for~it is an old one and tena-
cious of life, but he made the mistake
OF not seeing the growing strength of
the belief that city administration is
primarily business matter.
So. Mr.. Doran proceeded to put his
political faith into practice. Here a
popularity of that faith appears. In
the abstract it holds public offices to be
party property; in the concrete the dis
penser of the offices regards himself as
the party and dispenses the offices for
his own benefit. Here again, Mr.. Doran
is not blamable for making personal
use of the appointments he could COM
| mand: he was merely following the
customary practice. He PLAYED the
game according to it's rules with what
OF acuteness he had. AS fast as pos
sible he put his fellow partisans in
place, and, in selecting them, he fol-
lowed precedent and chose those who
would further his desire for a. renomf-
nation. He deliberately made public
interests subservient to his conception
of his office, it's powers and privileges.
That he did not do as he would in the
board Of public works and the water
board was not his fault.
In three Of the departments of the
city he had his way, the police, the fire
and the school. And in each one of
them he succeeded only in giving the
city an object lesson in partisan ad-
ministration. He failed in his use of ii
both for good government and in adj
vancing his own interests or those of his
| party. His successor goes in the
choice of less than half Of the voters
| of the city, while Mr.. Doran goes out
at the close Of a single term repudiated
by his own partisans. But the mis-
| chief he wrought in prostituting the
city offices to his double purpose re-
| mains. What he did with the police
| force and the fire department can be
quickly remedied: what he did to the

Robertson presided over tie meeting,
opening 1T with prayer. He was fol-
lowed by Prof. Jabez Brooks, q vener-
able instructor, who spoke on early
Lessons" He told Of the organization
OF the Hamline university in 1857, and
the preparatory school which was con-
ducted some time before at Red Wing
IN 1908 the college had an alumni So
ciety numbering some twenty mem
bers; after this it increased materially
every year. In the early days Ham!ine
university was the headquarters of
Methodism, and the Mecca of Meth0-
dists. Hamline was among the first
colleges in the Northwest to take a firm
stand on the negro question.
Prof. Brooks then read a long roll Of
hcnor OF those who had gone from col
lege into the army; many Of them had
distinguished themselves and been re-
warded with high rank. The metal
OF the men and women which a college
sent cut determined it's efficiency Ham
line had established a record of USE
fulness which 1t might we'll be proud Of
Its young men would be as plants and
Its daughters as corner stones polished
with the solidi'y of the past
Miss Pearl Benham gave solo, which
was enthusiastically received by the
alumni
Rev. G. A. Cahoon next spoke on
college students they were responsible
to the world for the use which they
made of themselves. Education round
ed out a symmetrical manhood In all it's
wards.
Chairman Robertson received the
graduating class, making a few re-
marks on their entry members of the
alumni. Guy A. Caldwell, president Of
the class of 1898, responded appro-
priately.

PLENTY of applications for positions but no

Mayor Kiefer yesterday in reply to a quest
ion by G o b e reporter as to whether
any appointments had been made.

continued the mayor, that number of
the police had stated that il 1 was elected
mayor they would resign. I have been In
office one day, and as yet the first resigna-
ton has net been filed. 1 guess the old say
ing about there being designations only by
death must be about right.
II have had twenty-five applications Cor
every possible POSITION said the mayor, as
he signed his name to business letter which
his stenographer had laid on his desk ''You
see it would be different as to appointments
if the administration preceding mine had
been Democratic instead of Republican
There might then have been an opportunity
to remove for offensive partisanship, but
now all the Offices are held by Republicans
or those who are supposed to be members of
the Republican party.
There will be no changes so far as L am
aware In the immediate future. and unless
designations come in there can be no appoint
ments." = ',se-. ~ -. 49, -.E

City's Answer to Jaclson,s Suit.

Corporation Attorney Markham yesterday
filed an answer in the suit brought by John
Jackson. ex-chief Of the fire department,
against the city.
The answer sets up the action of the beard
of fire commissioners in passing the rsso-
luton which deposed Jackson. and alleges
that the acts of the board were legal and
proper, under the charter.
The case will probably not be tried before
the September term of court.
