Senator Davis and Congressman
Stevens of the St. Paul district
were rendered banquet on Tues
day night, at which 200 leading
citizens were present. Senator
Davis took occasion to deliver one
of those scholarly, ringing,patriotic
addresses, free from partisanship.
He dealt largely with war issues,
and among the scores of other good
things, he said:
"Shall the United States abandon
the manifest and predestined course
which has been laid out by some prov
idential evolutionary power? I do
not profess to know; I don't think any
man, cleric or layman, has right to
profess to know what the result will
be; but o know that the history of
all recorded time teaches all men that
in growing nation, which stands for
civilization, and not a stagnant ma
tion, which is on the back track of
retrogression, that the man who
stands by his country, by the admfs-
tration, by the wars which are being
waged, stands also for human pro-
gress, human civilization, human
right.

CLOSE UP.

There is steadily growing re-
spect for Memorial Day which
finds healthy expression throughout
the country in its general observ-
ance by suspension of business.
The legislature of Minnesota at its
last session passed the following
law:
That the dissertation of Decoration
Day the thirtieth (30th) day of May of
each year, by the playing of games of
ball, cricket, foot ball, and other like
games, or by horse racing, bicycle
racing, or any other sports calculated
to attract attention to such games or
sports, and away from the memorial
character of said day, within one-half
I'll mile of the place where memorial
exercises are in progress. is hereby
prohibited and made unlawful during
the hours from ten 10Y o'clock in the
forenoon to three (3) o'clock in the
afternoon of said day, and all sa-
looms shall be closed on said day be-
tween the hours of ten (1O) o'clock in
the forenoon and three (3) in the af-
ternoon, in all cities, towns and vii
lagos where memorial exercises are
held.
In recognition of what the day
means to every right thinking citi-
zen all places of business should be
closed during the memorial exer-
cises, showing the same respect
for the nations dead heroes that it
is usual to pay to single illus
triOuS citizen. These exercises
consume about two hours-from
ten to twelve o'clock, and by clos
ing during that time due respect
is manifested and employees are
given opportunity to attend these
patriotic and reverential services.
A number of our business men
have already expressed themselves
as not only willing but DESTROYS of
closing during the services, and
he HERALD knows the temper of
all of them we'll enough to be JUS
titled in announcing that all busi-
ness will be suspended from ten to
twelve o'clock on May 80.

Governor Lind vetoed the bill
passed by the legislature providing
for what was called the "perpetuation
of testimony" in cases tried before
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion. Under the present law when a
farmer or shipper has complaint to
make before the commission he must
take his witnesses to the railroad COM
mission, after his testimony is all in
he then submits to a hearing. If
either the farmer or the railroad COM
pany appeals the case to the court this
has to be all gone over again, and the
farmer has the expense and trouble OF
taking his witnesses down again, and
going all over the case. The bill
which the governor vetoed provided
that this evidence once taken should
be final, and that anyone desiring a
rehearing it should be submitted to
the court for retrial. The governor
said in explanation of the veto that
this provision of the bill was possibly
all right, but there were some other
things about it that he did not like.
This explanation will strike the farm
err as being scarcely sufficient after all
the trouble they have taken to get
that kind of a law passed. It is in
line with the governors declaration
at the beginning of the session, that
no legislation was needed relating to
the railroad and warehouse commits
sion Princeton Union.

THE SEWER SYSTEM.

In the matter OF public improve
ments, the expediency as to time
and extent will always be subject
to honest difference of opinion.
The only thing the city authorit-
les can do is to consider the mat
ter carefully, consult the wishes
of the people so far as possible and
then act in their own judgment as
to the most effective and econom-
ical method of achieving best re-
suits for the public welfare.
1t is to the problem of public
sewers that the council is now adj
dressing itself in this spirit. The
council recognizes the fact that
there is urgent demand for sys-
tenn of sewers, not merely for indi-
vidual convenience but for the
public health. From all over the
city comes the demand for sewer
service-not universal, to be sure,
but in sufficient numbers to indi-
cate that a contracted service.
within narrow limits, will not meet
the requirements. Cess pools are
increasing in number all over the
city, without control or restriction,
a standing menace to health by
reason of poisoning water supplies.
On the other hand the council
recognizes the fact that there are
scores of people along the proposed
lines of sewers who will not be
directly benefited. With them it is
largely question of cost. In this
connection it will be we'll to remove
a very prevalent misconception of
the expense which has been greatly
exaggerated in many minds. The
cost per front foot to property will
not exceed fifty cents, which may
be distributed over ten years, with
a low rate of interest on unpaid
amounts, if the property owners
so desire. Furthermore, in case of
corner property, or when sewer is
laid along the length or side of
lot the tax is levied only upon the
lot frontage. Moreover, when any
piece or stretch of the sewer is ex-
traordinarily expensive on account
of excessive cut, larger pipe, or
for other cause, the extra expense
is distributed over the entire system,
so as to equitably equalize the bur-
den. To repeat: A sixty-six foot
lot, even though the sewer run
along the front and side of it, or
along the side, or along the front
only, would cost about $500,
which may be divided into ten
equal annual instalments, which
with interest added would not ex-
coed four dollars year.
And the council, in rejecting all
bids concluded that it could lay
the sewers at very material saw
ing, besides giving the work to our
own laboring men, and such will be
the demand for labor thai any enc
who desires to work can easily earn
far more than his property would
be taxed for sewer purposes.
In considering the matter in all
its bearings, majority of the
council favorS putting in the entire
system this season, leaving the
streets graded 50 that they will not
have to be torn up again for years,
and the city left in the best possible
condition. While the council has
not taken definite action in the pre-
misses, yet it cannot be denied that
it would be justified in carrying out
the plans which it favorS.

Goes to Puget Sound.
The cruiser Raleigh, which was one of

paratory to undergoing extensive repairs

]. B. COghlan. her commanding officer, is
assigned TO duty as commandment of the

standing that he was reprimanded by the
Navy Department for injudicious and I'M

peror and the German admiral at Manila
AT the time of the uttcrance of these COM
ments II was stated that the Secretary Of
State had disavowed all official responsible
ty for them to the German ambassador
here, and that Capt. Coghlan was in con-
sequence to be relieved of his ship and pub
licIy reprimanded. How much of this was
true has not developed. except that it is
known thai, Secretary Hay did express re-
greet at the ''unfortGSatc incident" Capt
Coghlan was not relieved of command of
the vessel until she was ready to be put our

tice of the Navy Department: to make pub

was not followed in the case of Capt. Cogh-
