The council passed resolution
to the effect that the cost of spripk-

OF all property belonging to the
city in sprinkling district No. l be
paid for by the city.
The action of the council is quite
a relief to those business men who
have paid for all of the sprinkling
in years gone by. It is a we'll
known fact that property in the
district, which has been benefited
by sprinkling in previous years,
has not paid a cent for the benefit,
and the creation Of the district, and
the provision for sprinkling, will
compel the owners of this property
to pay their just share, the assess

property owners will be obliged to

FOREIGN NURSERIES.
Have Nothing to do With Any One
but Minnesota Nurseries.

E. H. S. Dart of Owatonna, in a
letter to the Minnesota Horticulture
ist, on representatives Of foreign
nurseries, has the followingofi inter
est to The GAZETTE readers:
Il very frequently receive letters
inquirlng as to the responsibility
and methods of certain Minnesota
nurserymen or jobbers in trees.
Since the recent disaster to trees
south of us, there is greater de-
mand for genine Minnesota grown
trees. The tree. jobber has APP
peared. He was located at good
shipping point, plated few trees,
established an office and packing
grounds, with tree cellars and
sheds, gets out an elaborate cata.
logue and in few weeks the great
Columbian Nursery Company gets
a puff in the papers as a new bust
ness enterprise and goes sailing on.
It's boss says to his many agents
Go We out into this cold world and
sell ger uine Minnesota grown trees.
All want the best, as indicated by
the price charged, so I have placed
prices we'll up in the catalogue. Be
liberal. Frequently donate so cents
or 81 in the shape Of a two-cent

toners. Sell the Dewey, Mckinley
and Bryan at $1.50 per tree. If
your customer is English add

Irish put in Gen. Kruger instead
and sell the four trees for even IS.
l have paid $1,O00 each for these
choice varieties and have few left.

Il am glad to say that some of the
jobbers are planting young stock
extensively and will soon become
respectable nurserymen, if such a
thing is possible after having
learned SO many tricks of the trade.

MATTERS OF INTEREST.

Everything points to harmony
and unanimity in the Republican
ranks in the approaching campaign.
One of the hopeful signs is that men
who favored candidates for governor
who either withdrew or had no par
ticular hope of success this time
have generously come out for the
only candidate in the field at present,
Hon. S. r. Van SAINT. State Auditor
Dunn was staunch supporter of
Judge Collins, man who may well
aspire to the highest Office in the
gift of our people and who may yet
grace the gubernatorial chair some
day. When the judge was out of the
race Mr.. Dunn fell in line with those
whom he had opposed. In recent
issue Of the Princeton Union Mr..
Dunn says: SIT is generally con-
coded that Hon. Samuel r. Van SAINT
will be the nominee of the Repub-
lican party of this state for governor,
and in all probability will be nomin-
ated by reclamation. There is not
a ghost of chance for any other
individual to wrest the nomination
from Capt. Van SAINT. It is too late
for any other candidate to enter the
race. Here's to Samuel R. Van
Sant-the next governor of Mime
sota'
Labor Commissioner McHale is
said to be engaged in the prepare
ton of his annual report for public
alton as campaign document. It
will be hard task for Mr.. McHale
to present a report that will serve
the Democratic party at such time
as this, when wages are at higher
point than they have been ir years,
and when there is hardly willing
worker in the state out Of employ
meut When the Republican adj
ministration was inaugurated in
1896 the country was flooded with
tramps and hoboes, factories and
founderies were lying idle, and the
man was considered fortunate who
could see winters work ahead OF
him. During the year just closed it
has been almost impossible for en-
ployers tosecure the labor necessary
for the performance of the work
that had to be done, and wageShave
been advanced from time to time at
a rate that fairly corresponds to the
advance in the price Of living
necessities. AS faithful Populist
official, however, Mr.. McHale may
be depended upon to furnish docu-
ment for quotation on the Populist
stump.
It was a Republican legislature
that passed the bill making the rail
road and warehouse commission an
elective body. The only argument
used against the bill was that it
would make the commission strictly
partisan one, and the fear was ex-
pressed that by SO doing, full and
complete justice might not be act
uated by partisan motives. The
commission cannot be made more
partisan than it now is, but it can
be made more efficient. It is at
present composed of three men, all
of the same party, In spite of the
law which declares that it shall not
be so constituted. After January,
1901, it will still be partisan, but it
will be composed of Republicans
who will be accountable to the
Republican party for their actions,
and, as in the case of every Repub-
lican state official of the part, will
deal honestly and fairly with all
classes without discrimination or
favor of any.

II does not appear to us that Prof. ia

the first Philippine Commission, is throw

Zon, with as much force and frequency as
might have been expected. Prof. Schur-

Class Distinctions

Our esteemed contemporary, the Gem
fury Dictionary, reports Daniel webster
as having said in Pittsburg in 1873: "Nine.
tenths OF the whole people belong to the
iaborious, Industrious, and producing
classes" There is no reason to susnect
cur contemporary of any injustice. either
Intentional or otherwise, to the 'expoun,l
er and defender OF the Constitution" Mr.
Webster undoubtedly spoke the words at
tributed to him: and If any man of his
own or any other time ever surpassed
Mr.. Webster in capacity TO select and ar
range the words best adapted TO the ex-
preston of his thoughts, the name Of that
man is unfamiliar to readers of English,
The Springfield Republican of Novem-
Der says 1T is worth noticing that Ly-
man j. Gage, Secretary of the Treasury
in his Philadelphia speech last week re-
ferred TO the classes" I'VE need social
unity" he said; I'VE need mutual conf
dence and good will among the classes"
Thereupon the Republican proceeds to
deplOre the raising of "class issues"
There Is not now, there never has been.
ana prior TO the millennium, which does
not seem close at hand, there never will
be, country without class distinctions
In this republic We have no royalty. no
nobility. and we have no aristocracy IN
the sense in which that word Is used in
Europe. But We have classes, all the
same, and neither Daniel Webster nor
Lyman ]. Gage erred in mentioning them.
There is no immovable barrier between
the rich and the poor. The wage-worker
Of to-day may be the employer a year or
two hence. The capitalist of to-day may be
a wage-worker or a pauper before his life
ends. But for all that there are working
classes-not one class. but subdivisions of
people who work for their living; class
distinctions set up by themselves.
We have an aristocracy of wealth. and
it is "a source of infinite merriment" to
our aristoeracy of brains; hut the poor
can acquire wealth, and generations OF
sedulous cultivation can do much for the
improvement OF brains. Even among
the prize-fighters there are classes:
as, for instance, the heavy-weights,
m:ddle-weights, welter-weights, light
weights, and feather-weights. It will
be remembered that Corbett declined 10
fight Fitzsimmons, saying ''he does not
belong to my class" 1t may. also. be re-
membered that when Fitz finally got a
chance at Corbett some progress was
made toward the abolishing of class dis
tinctions.
