MAYOR SIGNS ORDERS
PRESENT BIDS ON PAVING WILL
DOUBTLESS BE REJECTED
Resembling Orders Passed by the
Council Become Effective With
the Signature of Mayor
Smith,

IN line with his promise that he would
refuse to sanction any paving contracts
falling to have Incorporated a suitable
guarantee saving the property owners
from future loss, Mayor Smith yesterday
attached his name TO a number of the
council resembling orders.
These included the paving of Decatur
street with brick, a contract awarded 10
the Barber Asphalt company, paving Min
nesota street with sandstone held by the
same company and paving with sand
stone Minnehaha street, awarded to Field
ing & Shepley. =,
Mayor Smith also signed the resolution
iHstructing the board of public works
TO report a final order for the paving of
Decatur street with asphalt
The mayor withheld his signature for
nearly four days, and says a decision was
only reached when he learned that the
specifications for sandstone contained no
guarantee, while those for brick only de-
manded a guarantee Of FIVE years He
says 1t should be aofull ten years
Those who oppose any paving unless it
contains the full terms of the council
indemnifying resolution have a majority
In both boards, and it is practically set
tied that the present bids will be thrown
out and new. ones advertised for.
In this event asphalt will be specified
for all the Streets and lump bid asked
of the companies furnishing this mater
ial Those who are promoting the scheme
say the low rate that will be received
will in every way vindicate their position.
City Engineer CIaussen has also init
mated that he will give his support to the
scheme of punching the streets and adj
Vertising for one bid.

1t can be said with a degree of as

FROM the Ringing people yesterday S31O
was demanded by City ClsIk Jensen but
his demand for tickets for the board Of
aldermen and assembly practically fell on
deaf ears. Two tickets only, and those en-
fitting the holder to seat on the bleach
ers, We're graciously donated The office
force received one each.
From o'clock on, the telephone in the
clerks Office was busy instrument, those
calling incidentally Incorporating with
other business the question if any tickets
were on tap. What was forthcoming when
the answer was given can only be sur
missed, but it was sufficient to know that
at the next meeting of the board of al
dermep an ordinance will be introduced
proposing a circus license of $500, If not
more.
An ordinance fixing this as the amount
was passed by the assembly some months
ago, and because of some technically
has been plgeon-holed by the board of
aldermen
1t was reported yesterday that the COM
pany made an effort to get in under the
section which calls for a fee of $3.50 where
charge of % cents was exacted, but it
was refused, and this was responsible
Tor the lack of courtesies in the shape Of
tickets to the council members.
AT Minneapolis the company was COM
PEELED to put up $780, and it is pos
sible that the same fee will hereafter be
demanded in St. Paul

THERE ARE OTHERS
THAT COUNTY RECORDS HAVE
BEEN TAMPERED WITH
SUM OF $11o Is MISSING
County Attorney Kane Verifies Re-
port That the Matter Has Been
Discovered, but Mem
lions No Names.

The misrepresentation of $11O, given a
coun'. official in payment of taxes. the
doctoring of the books to show that it
was paid, is a little matter that County
Attorney Kane and his assistants are now
engaged in unraveling The amount in
question was 4 sum paid over for taxes,
and the books tempered with reposed in
apparent security in the big fre-proof
vaults presided over by County Auditor
Johnson.
County Attorney Kane verified the ru-
NOR that another crooked matter had
been discovered, and that he was now
engaged in in yestigating the books both
in the auditors and treasurer's offices.
but he shut up like clam when asked for
the name of the party concerned.
All attempts to exact from County Au-
ditor Johnson a statement were equally
as futile. He refused positively to say
anything except to pass on the general
charges that he has preferred against his
eX-deputy, Mr.. Bourne To others than
newspaper reporters both himself and his
deputies were not so reticent, members Of
the board who demanded the facts being
given them without any coloring.
While the amount alleged to be misap-
propriated is small yet tampering with
the official records Is a criminal offense,
and subjects the offender to a term in
prison.
The story goes that the man
upon whom the guilt rests, hav-
ing access to the county auditors Of
fee, was given the $40 to pay taxes and
marked 1t paid in the auditors books.
The money was placed in his charge by
another party, for whom the guilty one"
was to pay taxes as an agent. Reports
from very reliable sources say the taxes
were never paid, but were so marked.
and the money was pocketed.

USEFUL CAREER ENDS
THE OLDEST SWEDISH MINISTER
IN THE NORTHWEST DIES
As Pastor of a Struggling Church,
He Took Part in Many Thrill
ing Indian Engage
ments

The oldest Swedish divine in the North
west, and one who has contributed ma
terially to the building up of the Swed-
ish Lutheran church in this country, died
early yesterday morning at Bethesda hos
pital, in the person OF the Rev. DR.. Jack
son, of Rush Point, MINI. Up to within
q very few weeks ago the Rev. Mr. Jack
son was able to perform his duties as
pastor of the Swedish Lutheran church
at that place, and his DEATH at the adj
vanced age of seventy-three years, was
due to uraenic poisoning, which, owing
to his weakness, he could not success
fully combat.
He was born in Sweden, and in 1852
came to the United States with his pa
rents. In 1857 he moved to Minnesota.
after having been ordained, and within
a year of his assuming the pastorate of
the church at New London, Kandiyohi
county. his church became associated with
some of the most stirring incidents In
the Indian uprising of 1889 After con-
siderable trouble with the Sioux, the diff
ficulty was brought to a climax by the
massacre in cold blood of five members
of his congregation as they were return
ing from church one Sunday afternoon.
The pastor, with his family and the re-
mainder of the white community, then
fled from the scene of the trouble, and he
next settled near Carver, in the county
of the same name. He was appointed
principal of the st. Angas academy, and
at the same time he acted as pastor of
the Western Union Congregational
church. Here he stayed until 1885, during
the whole of the time being Intimately
associated with the growth of the Swed-
ish Lutheran church all over the North
west In 1892 he moved to Rush Point.
to accept the pastorate Of another church.
and remained there until the ravages of
his disease forced his coming to this city
for treatment.
He leaves a widow. one son and two
daughters. The son, J. A. Jackson, was
member of the last legislature, and is
a we'll known attorney of st. Paul. Both
the daughters and the widow reside at
Rush Point, where the funeral will be
held Saturday.
The remains will be removed to his
home today, and his son will accompany
them to Rush Point.
