with his hand he carefully combed his

way. for his arms are very short and
his body very large. so he combed these
otherwise inaccessible places with his

WE MUST GO HE'D.

TIL Gil ID e has watched and VIII
continue to watch with considerable in
terest the progress of the movement
which has prevailed for some time for
the Improvement of our city streets and
especially of those approaching the city
limits.
Mr.. E. W. Peet has been quite promi-
nent in the movement looking to the i'm
provement of our local roadways. His
plan of road Improvement through the
use of crushed slate is an interesting one.
and TIL e Globe believes Mr.. Peet to
he dis.nterested, as well as deeply in
earnest, in his efforts to promote that
particular method of street and road i'm
provement.
Reference has been made to the expert
ment made in this city of the value
of crushed slate as a cheap and excel
dent material of street building. The
stretch of road on Dale street between
Dayton and Marshall avenues represents
the experiment, and it has been referred
to in somewhat Apologize way. AS a
matter of fact there is no reason what
ever for any Apologize attitude on that
score. The stretch in question shows
very clearly that the material is excel
lent for the purpose and that if 1t rs
available at a price much reduced from
that of the other materials in use for
read Improvement. as Mr. Peet is repre-
scented as saying, there Is every reason
Why it should be generally adopted
On those streets where property values
do not admit of any extensive or costly
improvements of the highways such
material as Mr. Peet has reference to is
absolutely necessary if anything is to he
done. of course, the determination or
all such questions must ultimately rest
with the council and the administration
of the city streets; but the urgency OF
the case demands that something more
shall be done in the direction of improv,
ing our main highways out toward the
city limits than has been done or at
tempted.
If that committee which reported re-
Gently on certain streets leading to the
surrounding farming districts which
should at once be improved if the city
is to keep control Of the trade from
such district would take up this question
of the availability of crushed slate as
cheap and suitable material for local

suddenly called away from the city AM,
the young bank clerk was left in charge
of the res idence.
Mr.. Perkins was not, to be exact, left
entirely alone. Kathleen, the cook, still
remained in charge of the kitchen and
although Mr. Perkins refused to admit it,
Kathleen was very much the real boss of
the household
All went we'll until Mr. Perkins decided
to invite his male friends in to quiet
dinner to be followed by an evening at
cards. Mr.. Perkins let Kathleen in on
the idea, but the cook lady did not en-
thuse a little bit.
Perkins was diplomat. He had pushed
into the inner circle of society and he
pretty near knew that he could bring
a plain cook lady around to his way of
thinking. Perkins lost no time in starting
to work.
Kathleen Perkins returned to his board
ing house with bundle OF American
Beauty roses. The roses were turned
over to Kathleen. The second night
Kathleen became the sole owner of a
pound box of assorted chocolates.
The cook lady began to pay some at
tentton to Tier back hair and she pulled
down her sleeves and changed to white
apron every time she carried a, dish into
Perkins way.
In week Kathleen had reached the
foolish giggle stage and Perkins knew
that the time was ripe. Again he sug-
gested an evening in the mansion with
his friends. Kathleen had forotten all
about the first objection. She would be
tickled almost to death to be able to help
Mister Perkins to entertain his friends
and the more he brought in the merrier
would be her work.
Perkins gave the party
CThree or four stars ought to go in
right here, but as it strains the linotype
machine they will be overlooked)
The family returned to the mansion and
Mr.. Perkins was again a plain boarder.
Perkins did not say word about the
stag party and Kathleen had no chance
to, for the lady of the house started her
return to work by handing Kathleen her
salary UP to date. Kathleen was a, good
cook, but the trip away had cost much
money and the lady of the house was
about to make saving.
Perkins was still working for Jones &c
Jones when Kathleen moved. Three days
later he handed in his resignation and
caught the overland train for the West
Kathleen was responsible for the sudden
departure.
The day after Kathleen switched work
places the telephone bell In the Office Of
Jones & Jones began to ring A clerk
answered the call. The clerk had been
out to the stag party.
tHello,' called the clerk.
Hello" came back female voice,
rs Mr.. Perkins there?''
mot just at present. answered the
clerk. rs there any message you would
like to leave?''
Yes simpered the voice at the other
end, Twill you please tell him that
Kathleen Rourke called him up? Tell
him that I working on Summit ave-
nue. near Western for Mrs Brown and
that L would like to have him call. Tell
him to come around to the back door for
Mrs. Brown is very particular about our
receiving gentlemen company"
When Mr.. Perkins came in the brother
clerk told him the message and told it
in tone that could be heard all over the
office. An echo of the message reached
the club and after two days of Kathleen
called you up" Mr.. Perkins decided 10 go
West.

Democrats are just as willing as not

ern programme.
There is nothing which the Republicans
can do to protect themselves from the
wrath to come which they will not need
to do. The danger is well-defned, and it
is increasing as the days go by. By the
gress has been brought to a close the
American people will have received an
insight into the true character of the
imperialist programme which will in all
human probability be sufficient to bring
about the reaction in national sentiment
which has long been impending.

there is little danger that Democrats will

foolish spirit which presented itself to

economic problems in their own way.
They are doing the best that their un-

leaving behind them the errors and de-

place in the progress of the age which

If the imperialist following thinks that
these efforts of the South to regain lost
ground, and to adjust the relations Of
the two races on some enduring and ac-
ceptable basis, merits to be treated to
punishment, so let it be- But they invoke
a dangerous power. 1t is true that the

which were adopted in the heat Of in

SELLING OUT TO ENGLAND.

An examination of the text of the pro-
posed treaty negotiated by the state de-
partment with English officials for the
abrogation of the Bulwer- Clayton instru-
ment is made public The first thing
which its publication makes plain is that
the text of that treaty has already been
published. The New York Journal had
that text cabled across by its London
correspondent, and all the claims made
that the version published by the New
York daily was Incorrect are shown to
cunlstance affecting the proposed treaty
is that all the representations made, in
Guiding that embodied in the presidential
message, to the effect that the proposed
treaty comedies all that the American
people have sought, are unfounded.
What is it that the American people
have been contending for in connection
with the proposed treaty? That they
must be allowed to build at their own
expense and operate on terms of equality
to all nations while this nation remains
at peace a canal across the ,sthmus. What
does the published treaty concede in that
direction? The right to build such a
(which we were foolish enough to give
up in that ill-adyised Bulwer-Clayton
proceeding with the proviso that it shall
be neutral water at all time.
This does not meet our requirements.
We must have the right to do with that
canal what we choose, whenever the
rights or safety of our people and gov
eminent demand. Any attempted in
fringement on the part of a European
power of the substantial requirements OF
the Monroe doctrine is an act of war,
if persisted in. We must for our own
good have the right to close that canal
to any such power in any such contin-
Sency without being chargable with hav-
ing violated a treaty in doing so.
This this proposed treaty does not
take to give our enemies in time of war
a free waterway across the body of the
American continent to strike us if they
will at what they believe to be our most
vulnerable spot.
No such treaty as this should be rati-
fed by the senate. 1t Should not re-
Ieeive the vote of even a single Demo-
cratic representative in either branch of
congress. Every Democrat in and out OF
that body should fight it tooth and nail.
1t is un-American: more, it is anti
American, and its ratification will be
crime against the Monroe doctrine, which
has of late become so much of a fad
among the Republican politicians.

SATURDAY, DEC. Z. 1901.

Without doubt there will be much talk
in the house and senate this winter over
anu exclude anarchists. But it will all
end in talk. There is no probability that
law will be passed to make the holding
of an opinion or the expression thereof a
feiony. When men advocate assassina-
ton they cease to be anarchists and be-
criminals. The right of free speech and
the freedom of the press are not to be
trifed with by congress.

old King Coal.

American patriotism blazes up at the
thought that the kaiser is to enjoy the
pleasant warmth of American coal this
winter. Here Is another conquest Of for
eign markets to boast about, or, at least,
the promise OF conquest Three hundred
thousand tons of our very own coal, our
own Pennsylvania anthracite, is to be
shipped to Germany to the eternal dis
may of the English exporters.
We should get away also from the beau
tiful humanitarian thought that by SELL
ing our coal dear to ourselves we were
enabled to sell 1t cheap for transporta-
ton, and SO help the poor foreign buyers
like the kaiser. In that thought there
is almost the sanctity of religion A bless
ing must rest on cur sacrifices for for
eign mankind in this and other ways.
But that reflection Is too sonber for a
day of rejoicing. Just let us think of our
coal, the American peoples COAL sailing

this winter In any form of more import
ance to this nations industrial interests,
and more especially to the commercial
and Industrial interests of the state
of Minnesota, than the treatment which
should be extended to our live stock and
dairying interests.
For all practical purposes it seems de-
termined that we shall have no reciproc-
ity treaties ratified by the present SEN
ate The chief value of such treaties is,
of course, In the extended markets they
our manufactured articles. The debate
now in progress in the German parlia-
ment shows what We have to contend
with in foreign lands in the effort to send
into them our cheap food products. Those
governments will give US no market they
can keep from u.s. They are not willing
by We seek to sell without buying in re-
turn, shall receive even liberation at their

Germany has been one of the most per-
sistent of the foes of our exclusion laws
The Agrarian interest in that country
has consistently and steadily opposed the
introduction of our food products. The
present excitement in German legislative
=, -{e- no DIR Tga-
stance. 1t may be for the poorer classes
in Germany the enactment of hunger
laws as the Socialist representatives
claim, and 1t may be inconsistent with the
true welfare of the German masses; but
there is no man who win say that 1t Is
not justihable as matter Of national
reprisal.
What the German government is trying
to do with reference to American food
products we are trying to do toward
ourselves In the attempted advancement
of class interests through legislation.
Every Minnesota congressman having q
rural constituency OF any extent has made
his appearance In Washington this winter
with a measure designed to drive the oieo-
margarine industry out of existence. And
while one stands watching in wonderment
this display of class seihsllnes and mar
-mindedness there appear on the
scene the representatives of the cattle
raising interests, with their legislative
programme. They are against all that
the dairying interests seem to demand.
and they demand whole lot of things
which the dairy interests seem to be in
different toward.
The Republican party has brought the
conscience and moral sense of the coun-
almost impossible to consider public meas
