SONG BIRDS AND sTATUARY.
Both Are Well Mimfcked In the
Palm Gardens New Bill,

The new show at the Palm Garden this
week opened to a large audience last
evening and proved one of the best enter
tainments seen at the popular concert hall
this season. There is an abundance of
good singing, clever dancing and several
novelties. which constitute in the aggre-
gate first-class up to-date vaudeville
performance.
Among the most pleasing features are
the illustrated songs by Rice and Harvey.
The songs are rendered excellently. while
the pictures shown illustrate the theme
realistically. The pictures are particular
ly well defined and artisticaly produced.
May de Mar is a pleasing soubrette and
sings well, while Mamie Norris does O
clever song and dance turn. Miss Lottie
Sutkin, as the twentieth century girl. is
hit. Her singing is good. and her cos
tunes fetching, while her personal
charms are many. The singing of the
Deforest sisters is the strong vocal num-
Der, while Miss Della Pine renders sew
eral pleasing ballads. Prof. L. Fox gives
some particularly clever limitations of an
imals and birds, rivaling the originals at
times in the realism Of some of his imi
tations. The statuary posing of Harvey
III. Foemer is an artistic act, while Har
ris and Delos put on a comical character

The result Of the prevailing political
contests in Pennsylvania will be looked
for with much interest by all who allow
themselves 20 be concerned in the funda-
mental requirements Of common honesty
and decency in such contests. The Penn
sylvania campaign is, of course. not at
tracing anything like the attention be-
slowed on those in progress in other
states like Ohio, Nebraska, or MARYLAND
becaue the general result is accepted as
already determined. The event, however
will show whether even the most print

vive in the keystone state

PARDON FOR SOLDIERS.
Maj. Edwin Seeks the Release of
Members of the Fifteenth.

Members of the Fifteenth.
Maj. James Edwin has on foot plans
looking to the pardon of the seven mem
bers Of the Fifteenth Minnesota regiment
who are now incarcerated in the Fort
Leavenworth prison for various terms OF
from six months to six years for parttci-
patton in the mutiny which occurred at
Augusta while the regiment was In camp.
Maj. Edwin proposes to secure mon
ster petition, hoping to secure 10000 or
600 names, and when. this is done a
memorial will be forwarded to President
Mckinley asking him to pardon these
soldiers, whose friends and brother SOL
diers of the Fifteenth be-
lieve have suffered enough The
men found guilty and sentenced by the
court-martial were: James Kelley, five
years; Peter Foley, five years: Patrick
Cahill, six year; Robert Smith, one year;
Robert E. Smith, one year. all of Compa-
ny F. and William Williams, of Company
l.. five years, and John Wagner of Com
pany D, one year.
Maj. Edwin requests that every person
Throughout the state shall write him a
letter to his place of business lot Wash
mgton avenue south, Minneapolis,
granting him permission TO place
their names on the petition.
Every Minneapolitan to whom the
petition is not presented is asked to call
at that number. and place their names on
the roll. which will be ready Wednesday.
1t is felt that an effort to circulate petit
lions all over the state would require q
great deal Of time and expense, and Maj.
Edwin and other officers of the regiment
feel that 1t is entirely proper to ask
every citizen Of the state, favoring the
pardon of these unfortunate soldiers, to
send their names to Maj. Edwin, 107 Wash

The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1899-10-31

The produce commission men of the
state are going to fight the Grindeland
law, which requires them to give bond
and provides other irksome regulations
relative to- the conduct of their business.
Palmer & Beck, the st. Paul attorneys,
who fought the Redpath case in the
courts, have, been instructed to apply to
the supreme court for a rehearing Until
the law is knocked out or materially
amended the commission men say they
will be practically out of business.
President B. O. Tilton, Of the Mime
apolis Produce Exchange, gave a
reporter to understand that the
above We're the sentiments and the result
of the deliberations of committees from
the commissions mems associations of
Minneapolis, Duluth and st. Paul. The
meeting took place at the office Of the
Minneapolis Produce Exchange at the
city market yesterday, and it was late in
the afternoon before it closed.
For the present many dealers declare
their intention of giving up entirely the
commission business, as long as the pres
ent law stands. What they handle in the
prominent commission man stated that
the many so-ealled commission deal
ers in the city of Minneapolis did not in
reality handle much goods on commission,
and he went 50 far as to say that the
business done on commission on the pro-
duce exchange did not amount to Is per
cent Of the volume of the business.
A commission man yesterday pointed
out that there were still three points upon
which the supreme court had not passed,
and that they would be contested sep
arately, as the occasion arose. The de-
cision does not take in the interstate COM
merce question. The warehouse commits
sion takes it upon itself, under the pro-
visions of the law, to dictate to non-resi-
dents the concerns with which they may
do business. In other words dealers In this
state cannot receive eonsignments from
any one unless they have taken out their
licenses.
Then there is the question Of the right
Of the warehouse commission to demand
the books of any concern, for the pur-
poses of investigating charges made
against it.. The question in this case is
whether in criminal action, the courts
could accept discriminating evidence OF
the accused in the shape of his books.
The third question that arises Is what
shall constitute reasonable bond,
whether the bond is to cover@aH the bust
ness done by the firm or only that por-
ton which is handled on commission. The
law requires bond equal to 10 per cent
Of the gross amount Of business. To firms
sdoing a very large commission business
this requirement would be unreasonable
in the extreme. For instance, a concern
doing a $25, 100000 business would have to
give an almost unreasonable bond.
1t is possible, however, that this last
feature of objection to the law will be re-
moved at the next meeting Of the board
of railroad and warehouse commissioners.
Messrs. Becker and Ringdal, of the COM
mission, having expressed themselves as
in favor of reducing the amount of the

NEW YORK, Oct S0-Inspector Nc
Laughlin was today appointed to the
position of deputy chief by the police com

chief practically since December. 1898
Mclaughlin was one of the members Of
the force accused of accepting brides. He
was indicted and convicted Following the
conviction he was dismissed by a resou-
ton of the police board, June 10, 1895. On
the 1ath Of the same month the resolution
OF dismissal was rescinded, as McLaugh-
lin had secured a stay and a new trial.
This time he was acquitted. He was re-
stored to duty.
On Dec. 9, 1898, Mclaughlin was pro-
noted to be deputy chief. The civil sery-
ice board refused to recognize the an
point, as Mclaughlin had not passed their
examination. On Jan. 81 1899, the police
board rescinded the resolution of ap-
pointment, and put Mclaughlin back as
an inspector Mclaughlin sued to COM
pei the board to make him a deputy chief.
The suit is still pending.
Meantime, the White law went into eff

applied and he passed the examinat ton
with a percentage of 90.86. Mclaughlin is

WHAT THE ORACLE SAYS.

1t has been quite difficult to induce
Mayor Kiefer to talk on any of the many.
difficulties and disagreements which have
prevailed during his entire administration
between himself and his fellow Republic
an politicians, in office and out.
He remained silent throughout the very
GisgracefuI sQuabble over the appoint
ment Of city engineer, and has since
refused to say whether he gave Sandell,
OF the board of public works, his price
Tor consenting to vote for the mayors
man for that Office. He has declined to
say word touching the present discred-
table situation regarding the election of
an assessor and what he has said III re-
Spouse to the contemptuous treatment
extended to him by his chief of police and
his immediate subordinates was merely
in defense of his own personal and official
character which had been assailed from
police headquarters.
The latest instance in which The mayor
has managed to hold MS tongue at the
expense of the dignity of his Office and
his own good name is in the case Of the
enforcemenmt of the sidewalk ordinance
against the Third street commission men.
His personal vefaeity has been assailed
In that case. His official judgment and
good sense have been impugned He is
forced to occupy the position of 50 acting
az to tnflict needless injury on the bust
ness interests of the city. In the promo
ton of his own political interests.
1t has been stated frequently that the
entire sidewalk difficulty arose from the
action of the police department in making
arrests in violation of the mayors or
ders. This view, indeed, seems now to
be generally accepted as the true one
1t is presented with much plausibility by
the local morning Republican IN ct,
which is to be regarded as Mayor Ktefer's
personal organ. That paper throws the
cnuS of the entire scandalous affair on
the police department. not only for the
sidewalk wrong, but for the Infamous
smoke nuisance prosecutions. 1t asserts
that the mayor did not want the COM
mission men on Third street prosecuted.
and that the prosecutions were the result
OF the determined effort of the police to
do the thing they ought not to do
Is this the view of the mayor also?
Does his organ speak for him? If it
does, what has he to say in defense of
his conduct in allowing to remain in Of
flee and charge of the police department
d man who has not hesitated to give him
the lie and set him at defiance and to pub
lIcy insult him by charging that he was
using his real property for gambling
purposes; who is in league with the may
or's enemies inside the party ranks. and
whom he evidently dares not dismiss
FOR the good of the service" or other
wise, for fear of the wrath of those same
enemies? If it does not, 1t will be in
teresting to observe whether the MAYOR
will now come to the rescue of his subor
dinates by repelling the charge thus made
against them or complacently accept as
his own the statements which he evident
ly dares not make on his own RESPONSIBLE
ity

sENAToR MAsON,s PROTEST.

No man in public or private life has
shown more consistently or unrestraiEed-
Iy his readiness to place patriotism above
party in meeting the dangers which
imperialism has brought on the country
than Senator Mason, OF Illinois. He has
spoken out like g. brave man strong in his
convictions and willing to stand by them
even at the hazard OF his political ex-
istence.
1t is not wholly forgotten that not long
since tie Indignation of Senator Mason
found expression in the sentiment that
he would be ashamed to treat dog as
we were treating those men in the
Philippines whom we thought enough CT
on our appearance at Manila to accept as
our allies. This striking declaration the
senator now follows UP by the strongest
illustration that can be given by any pub
lie man of his loyalty to his convictions:
He proposes to resign his seat in the SEN
ate if his party persists In its career Of
Imperialism.
81 am not In favor Of conquest" sa5s
Senator Mason. "If my party in its na-
tional platform declares in favor of con-
quest; in favor of conquering foreign
people and subjecting the vanquished TO
our government without their consent,
will not be In harmony with my party,
and 1 will resign the senatorship This
is the language of a man whom the adj
v3cates of national spoliation and rob-
berry declare in common with millions Of
his countrymen, to be a traitor to his
country and false to its flag.
Senator Mason's action is not without
a parallel The resignation of Michael
Davitt Of his seat in the British Commons
as protest against the bloody and brutal
campaign in South Africa is impelled by
like motives. Our crime is Infinitely
blacker and wiclSeder than that of Eng
land Her empire has been built up by
the strong arm Of force. The natives Of
the lands she rules, from Ireland and
Scotland to Boerland, have had
the torch, the gibbet ard the
sword applied to them as the in
struments Of their civilization. We stand
for the eternal principle of Gods chill
dren being allowed to work out their own
earthly destinies in their own way We
stand, a continental protest against the
methods of England. Yet here, within
a brief century Of orr national life, we
are forced to appear III the character not
only of justifying the national brutal SIN
against which we rose success sfully, but
of copying that same bloody programme
Senator Mason's example will have the
most lealthfui effect. Our people, uni lie
those of England, have not yielded to tn,
through the veneer of civilization. They
will not contemplate prominent public
man thus laying down his official respon-
sibilities for principles sake without
thoughtful reflection as to the cause f
such conduct. They will recognize that
it means something more than a Nero
disagreement of an individual with his
party, and they will learn In time, if hey
have not learned already, the enormous
crime against American freedom which
our i1ureriaiist administration is engaged
