City Attorney Markham Is So En-
joined by Both Branches of the
City Council, and He Hopes to
Present the Case to the District
Court Saturday - Speedy Decision
Hoped for by All Concerned.
The question of the constitutionality Of
the law passed by the last legislature, au-
thcrizing an additional levy of one and a
half mills for school purposes is to be
tested In the courts Corporation Attor-
ney Markham was directed by a resolu
tor passed at special meetings of the
beard of aldermen and assembly held last
evening to commence mandamus proceed
ings to compel the county auditor to
spread the tax upon the taxrolls for 1889.
The resolution, as passed by the two
council bodies last evening, reads as fol-
lows:
Resolved, That the corporation attor-
ney is hereby authorized in behalf of
the city to institute such proceedings IS
sary to compel the auditor of RAMS Y
county to extend upon the tax rolls abb ut

1899, the special school levy of $1,000,
heretofore levied by resolution of the
common council, approved Sept. II, 1899,
under and pursuant to the authority con-
ferred by chapter 10, General Laws 1899.
The board of aldermen adopted the res
oiution by the unanimous vote of the
eight members present. The absentees
were Messrs Allard, Knauft and Dona-
hover The assembly concurred in the
action of the board by the seven men,
bers present voting for the resolution.
The absentees were Messrs. Kirke and
Nelson.
County Auditor Johnson was present at
the meeting, and, after his ccmmunica-
ton, refusing to spread the tax owing to
the question of the constitutionality had
been read, explained briefly his position.
He said he had been advised by the
county attorney, and the opinion of that
official had been reinforced by the at
t"rney general that the law was uncon-
stitutional. In order that there should be
no question as to the legality of the en-
tire levy for this year he had refused to
act under the resolution previously passed
by the council, and hoped that mandamus
PIC ceedings would be brought against
him so that the courts might pass on the
point.
lie further stated that should the Judges
of the district court hold that the law
was constitutional he would be satisfied
"fh their decision, and spread the tax
without waiting for an appeal to the SUI
rreme court. Should the district court
decide the law to be unconstitutional the
decision will be taken to the supreme
court for a final decision
Corporation Attorney Markham stated
last evening that his force would 60 TO
work at once on the papers in the case,
and In all probability the writ would be
applied for at the special term on Sat
urday. Owing to the exigencies of the
case, he said, it was very probable that
the court would render a decision at an
early date. If the decision went against
the city levying the tax then the case
could be presented to the supreme court
early in October, and the question finally
settled.

union lines, and In the course of his re-
marks took occasion to impress upon his
hearers who were not affiliated with the
local union the ACCESSIBILITY Of taking ad-
vantage of the present wave Of prosperity
to secure an increase of wages By uni ing
with the home organization. He showed
that through organization the molderS OF

cities had had their wages materially in
creased during the past few months, and
cOntended that what they had accom-
plished the holders of st. Paul could also
accomplish if they would pull together.
He further said that the minimum scale
of wages for this ci Y should not be less
than $3.50, and believed the same would
be granted by the fOUundrymen If de-

Mrs. BeileF Thinks Both Should Be
Saved in Alaska.


Saved in Alaska,
''In Darkest Alaska" was the subject
for some vivid word painting by Mrs
Anna F. Beiler, formerly Of Washington,
u. c., but for the last two years a mis-
sionary worker in Alaska. Mrs Boiler,
as the guest of the Woman's Home Mis-
sionary Society of the First NJ. E. Church,
addressed about fifty members of the So
clety in the parlors OF the church last
evening. The speaker stated that the
Greek church, Of Russia was arbitrarily
seeking 70 obtain an influence over the
native as we'll as the Russian settler. The
priests Of this religion, she claimed make
little effort to better the condition of the
people. They make no effort to enforce
cleanliness, although it's utter disregard
is one of the crying evils of Alaskan set
Elements. Mrs. Beiler said there was a
great need for more missionaries in every
part Of Alaska, and she thought that if
the United States could take the trouble
to send out men to obtain gold, seal skin,
etc, it might also take little more
trouble to save souls
The lecture was illustrated with maps.
