than system of spur tracks between
Minneapolis and points east and south OF
here. If any of the gentlemen who are
SO anxious to preserve our riparian rights
will take a jaunt on the Interurban line
some day and, getting off at or in the
vicinity of Oak street, Minneapolis. will
walk a short distance north to the rail-
road tracks, in the vicinity of which he
will find group of grain. elevators. he
will learn much concerning what consu-
tutes a liberal and progressive municipal
policy toward transportation agencies
that he probably never dreamt of before.
Since many of these gentlemen have new
er wandered far enough from their own.
municipal fireside to have secured any
thing like a substantial knowledge of
what the great cities of the country have
done in connection with railroad carriers
for the development of their interests,
the trip is quite likely to prove relatively
at least of great educational value to
them.
There IS a way, in which the union
depot may. be- transformed in fact and in
actual operation into no more than Sc
ries of spur tracks. That way evidently
has been discovered by some of those
guardians rof the city's welfare. If we
keep right on in the way they suggest
we will some day see the possibilities in
this regard fully realized.
Instead of pa1terihg with ourselves We
should give the privileges asked for, and
be glad of an opportunity to do SO. More
than that, if we are found worthy Of the
future which We are fond of predicting
for the city, we would order every foot Of
property between the southeast line of
Third street and the river, from the de-
pot to Robert street bridge vacated for
the enlargement of our shipping and
transfer facilities. Supposing we lease
the easements which are involved, what
use will it be possible to put them to at
the expiration Of the lease, and what
part will the miserable income we derive
from the lease play in the general sum
of municipal receipts?
There are few households in ST. Paul
that have not one or more members en-
gagged in the local railroad industry. Here
we have the general offices of a grand
system of trunk lines. Save one of them
alone, there is nothing which VIII oper-
ate to keep those large interests here if
they conceive it to their interest to re-
move elsewhere. The heads of the job
bling trade of this city are Immediately
concerned. They understand the disad-
vantages which their business has been
under for years: Such shipping facilities
as we have are at their door. II they
tolerate anything that will further limit
their shipping facilities; if, indeed, they
| do not make their interest in the subject
felt SO as to nullify the wretched frnpoIi-
cy which is involved, and which is the
product of local demagogism, the fault.
as well as the immediate loss, will be
chiefly theirs. They have found them
selves the custodians and guardians o.
the city's interests before today. If they
do their full duty in the present emer-
gency they will be at once safeguarding
the eity's welfare and protecting their
own property.

is greater than in those municipality own
ed and controlled
This assuredly does not aid very much
in the contention against municipal own
ersHip, but the special advocate that
quotes it is determined that it shall; and
accordingly substitutes figures of his
own which show better for us purpose.
municipal ownership has been the Ger
tainty of extravaganza in the amount.
and number of salaries paid under public
control. Indeed Public Policy itself has
been busy holding up the result of the
experiment in Boston under Mayor
Quincy as a horrible example Of what
is sure to result in the way Of extrava-
gance In paying unnecessary salaries
should municipal utilities ever come I'm
der public operation to any extent.
The truth in this case, as in most
others, will be found to lie about midway
between the claims of the two schools
Neither success nor failure can be pre-
dicted ON anything that we now know of
the results achieved in this country. But
if we could take the history of municipal
ownership in the cities of the old coun-
tries where it is in operat ton as a just
criterion of the value of the principle in
application in an American community,
all would be plain sailing, but that can
not be done without disregarding facts
of the most important bearing in the
other direction.

Wnlch he readily consented to do-in the

expectant audience.
The front seats were occupied with a

completely over the heads of the rest Of
the audience.
At length, at the expiration Of q. con-

And now, friends, in conclusion allow

Mr.. Dalzell--I am not afraid of my
logic; it could.
It is this absurd contention as to the

SO many people with the Republican po-

Of congress the Republicans were in a
