AN UNNECESSARY TRADE.

The st. Paul Globe made an ungener-
GUS and bitter attack in recent issue
upon ex-Congressman Towne, the Silver
Republicans and the Populists because
forsooth, the Duluth statesman thanked
his friends of the fusion forces in the
state legislature for the complimentary
vote they cast for him for United States
senator against that advocate of triple
alliance and territorial conquest -n7Cush-
man X. Davis. In telegram from
Washington Mr.. Towne said Extend
my acknowledgements to our united
forces" That was the head and front
of his offending. The Globe ought. to
know that without the cooperation Of
the Silver Republicans and Populists the
Democrats can elect no governor in this
ing Tell with Towne and The Silver
Republicans, anyway" The object is
apparent. The Globe is gold sheet and
has no use for silver. 1t supported the
cause the financial question was not an
issue. But will it support the. allied
forces in 1900 if bimetallism is to be
plank in the national platform? she
Globe, in the last campaign fought Will
liam j. Bryan and John Lind with all
its might and did everything possible ia
defeat them. Unless it changes hands
within two years it will probably try to
defeat them again if they stand upon the
Chicago platform. The Irish Standard
feels friendly to it's St. Paul contempo-
rary and regrets its exhibition of ami
mostly against the Silver Republicans
and Populists. Perhaps Democrat, in
stead of Silver Republican, should have
received the complimentary vote for sem
atOr, but as the honor was an empty one
what's the odds? Had there been pos
sbility of eecting an opponent Of Davis.
we believe the Democrats would have
chosen a member Of their own party, but
as there was not, the ~ votes of the
fusion forces in both houses We're cast
for a man who had the courage of mis-
convictions and who would rather be
flSul lHau DE senator. were Mr.,
Towne a man like Davis he would be
In congress today. He has made great
sacrifice in leaving the Republican party
for abandoning its own principles. The
Globe must admit that at every conven-
ton prior to the nomination of William
Mckinley in st. Louis. the Republican
party in its national and state platforms
favored bimetallism as did the Demo-
cratic party. Mr.. Towne adheres to the
principles enunciated by his party in
former years. and has the manhood to
stand by them still. BE he right or wrong
the Globe should treat him with more
courtesy than to consgn himself and his
followers to the Internal regions. If all
the Democrats in Minnesota who believe
In the free coinage Of gold and silver
accompanied Towne and his adherents
to the torrid zone referred to by the
Globe. 1t would find it's subscription list
diminish to a superlative degree. If
they did not go with Towne and the Sill
yer Republicans to the region presided
over by Pluto. they may in indignation
retort by saying: Tell with the Globe
and its gold standard" We admire the

Globe for its1 work during the recent
campaign; Yves admire 1t for Its opposi-
ton to expansion! and entangling al
liances, but we do not admire its at
titude on the lfinancial question and it's
attempt to disinaeerate the fusion forces
in this state. 'dWe protest against its
unwarranted and uncalled for attack up
on Mr.. Towne" because he is an uncom-
promising champion of the money Of the
constitution. Such TRADE is unneces-
sary and in bad TASTE and calculated to
do more harmlthan good in the cause of
reform and honest government. We
shall not permit the Globe or any other
organ of gold recommendation, no matter
whether it labels itself Democratic or
Republican to make vicious attacks Up
on the advocates Of monetary reform in
Minnesota or elsewhere without utteHsg
rebuke and a protest in these columns
and the Globe can make note of it for
Its future guidance.

TREATMENT OF CITY TEACHERS.

There are complaints afloat against
! Mrs Alice NJ. Cooley, the primary SUI
pcrntcndcnt of the Minneapolis public
schools, for arbitrary treatment OF teach
ers in her department. Among her VIC
TINS are Catholic teachers, graduates of
the public schools and training estab-
llShmcntS. who have been lIncere-
monionsly oustcd from their positions
without a hearing. We are slow to he
levc that she is actuated by bigotry and
that she discrminates against them on
account OF creed or nationality. We are
strongly of the opinion, however, that
there is something rotten in Denmark, -
and though we are not yet ready to for
mulatc charges we hereby protest
against placing too much power In the
hands o! snpernumerary who pro-
nounccs Il verdict of incompetency on
ladies who hold diplomas of proficiency
from the educational institutions of This
city and state.
1t appears that Mrs. Cooley is clothed
with authority to arbitrarily discharge
any conscientious and hard-workine
teacher without vouchsafing any expa-
nation whatever to her victims. Who
has given her this dcspotic power we do
not know: but certain 1t is that though
acting in a subordinate capacity she

superintendent If this married lady Is

pcrluous. and, in our opinion. should be
abolished in the interest of peace and
| economy. The assistant teachers should
/ be directly responsible to their principals
and they again to the superintendent of
schools. The office of primary slpnrin-
tcndent is an unnecessary one and has
no more right to exist in our educational
system than that of supprint endent of
the higher grades. Mrs. Cooley evident
ly has "a pull" and is drawing money
from the school fund which should be
given to a superintendent of penman-
ship, for instance.
The Irish Standard has no desire to do
her any injustice and will cheerfully
place Its columns at her disposal for any
| explanation she has to make in reference
to what we consider her autocratic
treatment OF Catholic teachers in the
primary department. We are resolved
that teachers of every denomination who
are educated and trained in the public

THE PHILIPPINE PROBLEM.

Cushman X. Davis. chairman of the
foreign relations committee and men,
Der OF the Paris peace commission, has
been graciously pleased to announce
that the treaty with Spain will be- sub
mitted to the senate for ratification on
Monday. Feb. 6. He thinks that in the
meantime the administration will have
whipped the anti-expansion Republican
senators into line to vote for the treaty
and probably he is right. BY cajolery
and tattery. by coercion and intimida-
ton the Mckinley imperialists hope to
overcome the recalcitrancy of the men,
bers of their party who place patriotism
above partsanship. They will get the
constituents of the independent senator's
to threaten them with boycotting If they
refuse to fall into line with their COL
leagues, and doubtless they will sue

large fishes can swallow q man entire

"Aguinaldo's American allies" is what
the Pioneer Press calls the opponents Of
territorial expansion. "a fine collection
of ancient fossils" is what the Minneap-
oils Tribune calls the distinguished
citizens who protested against the an
nexation of the Philippine islands last
Sunday in New York. The poor P. P.
and the "Tribby" stand by Mckinley,
Mark Hanna and Jim Hill, right or
wrong, for they are the subservient Or
gans of plutocracy. In the absence of
sound argument. they employ vitupera-
ton. The New York Herald is more
Independent than they are, though an
extreme expansionist. The other day 1t
stigmatized Mckinley as Ia wobbling

any kind. and is guiding the ship of

MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS IN IRELAND.

FOR the first time in their history
under the British government the Irish
people held elections last week in the
cities and towns throughout the country
and voted for their own candidates for
local offices under the new system. The
result Of the elections demonstrates their
capacity for self-government. and many
years will not elaDse until they have a
parliament Of their own in College
Green. The county elections Will take
place next March and candidates have al
ready been placed in nomination for
| districts of the island. The elections in
the cities and towns have shown beyond
doubt that the Irish people are tired of
Redmondism. The labor element is pre-
domnent in the municipalities and in
Cork, Limerick and Dublin it held Che
balance of power between the followers
Of Dillon and those Of Redmond and gave
the latter the worst of it at the polls
According to a special dispatch to New
York paper the labor element won
notable victories under the new local
government act Redmondites lost
everywhere. while Dillonites gained and
it is thought that factonism is at an
end-a consummation devotedly to be
wished.
In the Dublin corporation where the
electorate increased from 5000 to $4,000
voters-including for the first time $500
women--the labor members are increas-
ed from three to. twelve, while Jonn
Redmond's party, which held forty-four
| out of sixty seats In the old council, has
been reduced to twenty. The Dillonites
increased from about six to eighteen.
In the Cork corporation the Parnell-
ties have been reduced from twenty-six
to nineteen. while the Dillonites have
Increased from fourteen to eighteen, and
labor has nine representatives, several
OF them aldermen, being returned at the
top Of the poll.
But the result in Limerick is the most
startling of all, for there John DAILY, who
served fourteen years for alleged dyna-
hitting. has won twenty-four out of forty
seats and was elected mayor last Mon
day
The unionites, who have Jared badly
everywhere in these elections, are cursing
their leaders for passing such an act.
There is already decided tendency to
throw up unionism and cast their lot
with the rest of their felow-country-
men. Some of Them like Lord Elmy,
have already done SO and declared In
favor Of home rule. We have not yet
seen the complete returns of the MAYOR
atty elections. William Redmond, broth
er of John. was mentioned as candidate
for mayor of Dublin and the marquis OF
Dufferin, ex-governor general of Canada,
for mayor Of Belfast. The Irish are
making a good start. and it is safe to say
that people who have produced so
many brilliant statesmen to govern the
British dependencies in all parts of the
earth will be able to select first class
men to govern their own cities and
counties and eventually the entire natlon
in their capital on the Liffey.

brilliant address against expansion in

cause this state has political god in

stood as the foe of modern feudalism:

maintenance of the Monroe doctrine,
rather than for its abandonment; liked
MN better when he snatched the tail of

Grover Cleveland and gave it an addi-
tlonal twist, than now, when his politi-
cal idols are Lord Salisbury and that
