Total Destruction.


About two O'Clock this morning fire
broke out in the house 200 Cherry-st.
owned BY Mrs. John Collins, and &C.
cupied by her and her daughter, Mrs.
Annie Carpenter. Mrs. Collins is
visiting friends at Pomme de Terre,
and Mrs. Carpenter was spending the
night with Mrs. w. H. Blake, as has
been her custom during the absence
of her mother. The origin of the fire
is unknown but it presumably caught
from the chimney, as the house had
been occupied during the day by Mrs.
Carpenter.
Mrs. Herman F. Donart, who lives
next north, first discovered the fire,
which had gained good Roadway, and
Louis Donart ran down to the city
hall and gave the alarm; at that time
the interior was all ablaze and the
flames were breaking through thereof.
Thefire department responded prompt
ly, but the house was bevond saliva
ton. 1t and It's contents were a total
loss.
Mrs. Carpenter had considerable
dress-making work for her customers
at home which will swell the loss.
The property was insured in compan-
les represented by P. Lamb for S1300-
$7OO on building and $500 on contents
The loss will exceed the insurance.

1t twas all wrong from the beginning,
and thoroughly indefensible in any
administration. it is now up to the
republican party to correct, the evil
and the HERALD firmly believes that
such action will strengthen the party
more effectively than expenditure OF
the money so collected. 1t would be
good politics.-Sauk Centre HERALD.
So says the HERALD as to office
holders contributing to their party's
campaign expenses. --Alexandria Post
News.
Not at all. The point made is
that the collection or fees far be-
yond the value of the service in
collecting them, and turning over
large part of such fees to CAM
paign fund as condition prece-
dent to such appointment is bad
morals and worse politics. This
is true not only of the oil inspector,
but of every other state officer on
the fee basis.

Nasal catarrh quickly yields to

Sheriff Fred Schilplin has appointed
F. E. Minnette of Sank Centre, deputy
sheriff for that neck of the Stearns
county woods. Frank should "be
good" in future democratic conven.
lions. -Journal Press.
1t will take more than a deputy
ship to make Frank "good." He
has views and ideas of his own,
and courage sufficient to give them
expression. Do not for a minute
believe that he has surrendered his
convictions and his independence
of political action for a little office
which was thrust upon him.

The state soldiers home is an
institution which commends itself
to every right-thinking resident of
Minnesota. 1t is doing splendid
work. 1t shelters almost 400 vet
Grams of the war of the rebellion,
assuring them of comfort and hap
piness so long as they shall live
old heroes and patriots whose
youth was devoted to the preser-
walton of the union, and to whom
the state and nation owe debt of
gratitude which cannot find worth
Ter expression than sheltering their
old age. The money appropriated
by the state for its maintenance is
for the payment of a debt not a
gratuity nor charity.

1t is currently reported that the
law prohibiting the sale of liquors
on Sunday is frequently violated
in this city. Let the council pass
an ordinance requiring all inside
screens to be removed on that day,
so that a passer.by in the street
can get an unrestricted view OF
the interior of every saloon. If the
proprietor does not desire to evade
nor violate the law he could not
object If he does object, so much
the more reason for the ordinance.

Representative Jacobson has intro
duced new bill to increase the gross
earnings tax to four per cent. AS the
people are behind this bill there Is
very apt to be day of reckoning for
the members who vote against it.
Echo Enterprise.
How many of the "people behind
the bill" know whether four per
cent is an equitable rate-whether
too much or too little? Certainly
all railroads in the state are not so
evenly balanced in their earning
powers as to make a uniform rate
lust to all of them. Perhaps our
per cent is too high for some roads,
and equally perhaps it is too low
for others. Now that the legisla-
ture has provided for an exps TT tax
commission it would be far wiser
to commit all these intricate fea-
lures of taxation to them for con-
sideration and recommendation to
the legislature. 1t IS to consider
features of this kind that the COM
mission was created. To say that
the people are behind the PROPOSE
ton is partially true-the people.
some of them, would be behind a
proposition to raise the rate of tax.
alton of railroads to ten or twenty
per cent of their gross earnings.
The question simply is, what rate
of taxation is just and equitable.

The creation of tax commission
by the Legislature, to be composed
of men of ability, devoted to the
solution of the complex problems
which are incident to our system
of taxation, is a move in the right
direction. 1t is not expected that
a thoroughly equitable distribution
of the burdens of taxation will be
achieved, yet a near approximation
is possible as the result of well-di-
rected effort, .

To the credit of the legislature

To the credit of the legislature
of Minnesota be it said that it is
not "making a record" In fact,
one would hardly know it is in
session, and yet it is doing good
work smoothly and efficiently. 1t
started in right. 1t elected two
United States senators who are a
credit to the body in WHICH they
have seats, and that promptly and
without friction or scandal. They
won the confidence of the people
early and have held it constantly.
The session may be more conspicu.
Gus by reason of the absence of
bad leglsIation-but that is no
mean distinction. 1t has given the
state a tax-commission- as import
ant a piece of legislation as has
been enacted in ten years. 1t re-
fused to provide for constitutional
convention, which the HERALD be-
lieves was a mistake. The most
important measure yet remaining
is the redistrieting of the state for
congressional and legislative pur-
poses; and while there will be more
or less dissatisfaction with the re-
suit. so there would be with any
possible division and organization
of territory for these purposes. If
the legislature shall adjourn with
as good a record as it has up to this
time it will be entitled to the plau-
dit: swell done, good and faithful
servants"

Peterboro, N, H., established the
first free public library in the Unit
ed States, in 1888, and in 184o a
general law authorizing taxation
for library purposes was passed by
the New Hampshire legislature.
From this small beginning has
grown up one of the most benefi-
cent systems for the education and
diversion of the public ever de-
ViSed.

The omnibus bill authorizing In
creased appropriations for public
buildings, passed both houses Of con-
gress on Saturday. BY its provisions
St. Paul gets 500, 600 more; Fergus
Falls Is increased to S1OO, 600, and st.
Cloud from $50, 900 to s68, 900.
And again..
The senate on Saturday recommend
ed the Horton bill, allowing an extra
81 ,000, 900 for the completion OF the
new capitol, to pass The purpose OF
the bill was fully explained and neces-
sity of liberality in completing the
building shown. The recommends
tion was made by unanimous vote. 1t
is understood that If this appropria-
ton is made, the steps, and all APP
proaches to the capitol, will be of
granite. and, as the foundation is OF
st. Cloud granite, naturally the addi-
tional stone referred to will be OF the
same material. This would be big
job, probably more than twice as large
as the foundation stone contract, and
would bring a large force of granite
men to st. Cloud.-Times.
Sank Centre rejoices with Saint
Cloud in these additional appropri-
tons both federal and state
which means so much to our sister
city. What rather surprises the
HERALD, however, is the fact that
the Times INDUCES in no partisan
TRADE against the obvious extrava-
gance of a republican congress, and
a republican legislature in thus US
ing, even squandering, public
funds. 1t can't be that local ad-
vantage has blinded the Times to
the pernicious principle involved
in these appropriations? Perish
the thought.

Congress adjourned on Sunday
last, and its closing moments were
not without event. The river and
harbor bill, which carried an APP
preparation of $6O,OOO,OOO was
killed-talked to death by now ex-
Senator Carter of Montana. Mr..
Carter made a brilliant record at
the close of his term, talking thir.
teen hours to prevent the bill
reaching a vote. He should be re-
turned to the senate at the first
oppeftunity.
