The arguments that the offices of city
treasurer and comptroller should be re-
moved from the perncious influence OF
political patronage holds as good in the
case Of the city engineer. There is no
great party principle involved. The
patti onuye of the office is not big enough
to tempt any but the smallest Of poll
ticians that have nothing else to do Dut
hunt UP political jobs at the expense or
the taxpayer.
For .hese reasons the non partisan
movement will concentrate it's efforts
from now on 70 keep the engineering
office cut of politics for the next year
at least. The men composing this
movement an. among the heaviest pro-
perty owners in the city. They will be

nter Will be required to make an esti
mate on which is to be collected 80 per

ment before Paving block is laid, III
case there is not enough money in the
permanent Improvement revolving fund
to go ahead with the work. Under such
conditions close estimates on improve

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 1.-The appoint
ment Of j. O'Donnell as labor commits
sioner has given universal satisfaction
among the labor organizations Of
the state, and all are united in the
opinion that no better choice could be
made. Mr.. O'Donnell is well known to
be one of the most conservative labor
men in Minnesota, while at the same
time being progressive and up to date
in all reforms touching the interests of
labor.
In taking charge of the office of la
Dor commissioner, he can be depended
upon to continue all the reforms which
have already been started, and to in
itiate others which may be suggested
by experience in the office. No radi-
cal or revolutionary methods needs ne
looked for as Mr.. O'Donnell realizes
that nothing is to be gained by any
action which is not fully authorized
by good judgment and that any at
tempt to enforce too radical measures
would undoubtedly result in losing the
advantages already gained for labor.
Mr.. O'Donnell, however, has prom
Ounced and well digested ideas as to
what reforms and changes are needed
for the betterment of the conditions Of
labor, and in his ideas regarding the
necessity of more stringent laws in
regard to child labor, is particularly
emphatic. He is strong believer in
the rights of every child to receive the
benefits of our free school system, and
will make special efforts to enforce all
laws bearing on this subject. In re-
gard to better protection for the mine
workers he also has strong views, and
this class of workers may be sure of
consideration from him in his posi-
ton.
Mr.. O'Donnell states that it will be
his policy to continue working along the
lines laid down by his predecessor in
office, and to inaugurate such other
reforms as experience may suggest, and
which recommend themselves to his
Judgment as practical and capable of
enforcement.

upon as sound business principles as
ones private business.
Il am believer in the municipal,
ownership of all public utilities, and
hence am opposed to the granting of
any more franchises.
Il believe that the city should ac
quire those now operated by private
concerns, as our means will permit,
and pledge myself to work to that
end"
Mr.. Marcey is in a three cornercd
fight for election. A few Republicans,
who dislike the idea Of being represent
ed in the council by q WorkingmaE,
have put up one Of their number, in the
person Of Watson Moore of the Board Of
Trade. In spite of this Mr.. Marcy
fully expects to carry the ward. He re-
lies good deal upon the support of the
worllingmen in the ward, irrespective
Of their political affiliations.
It is safe to say that he will get a
goodly portion of~it as labor is as much
interested in necessary municipal leg
islation for Workingmen, as is the Du-
luth Telephone Company or any other
corporation desiring favors from the
city.

The present municipal compaign very
closely resembles Quaker love feast.
This no no doubt the result of there
being no opposition to the present in
cumbents of the principal offices. City
Treasurer Voss, Comptroller Mc( or
mick, and Municipal Judge Edison are
congratulating themselves that they
are getting out of it SO easy. The city
should also be congratulated on the.
fact that it has such capable and pop
ular officers to look after it's affairs,
that no one in the city cares TO oppose
their election.
Judge Gearhart and &. w. Stilson
are the candidates for special judge
Judge Gcarhart in the present incum-
bent. He is the largest man in the
city, and holds down the position to
perfection. In fact his friends say that
he just fits it. Mr. Gearhart is a vet
eran Of the civil war, and is very promi
ment in G. \. Il. circles. Mr.. StilsOn
is prominent attorney in the city, and
is we'll and Favorable known.

ENGINEER M'GILVRAY.
Should BE Retained in His Present
Position.

The Republican City Committee ought
to do the graceful thing now and in
dorse Thomas Mc(;ilvray for city engi-
nerr. Both of the daily papers spoke OF
him very kindly during the week, and
favOrahly mentioned the efforts Of
members Of both the parties to keep
Mr.. McGilvray in his present position.
The StOnemusunS union have indOrscd
him. The say hat he is the best friend
that they have ever had in that office
He will listen to nothing but Duluth
granite in any stone work. His reas'ni
for this is that he wants to see as much
home labor employed on city work az
can be used. In speaking of Mr. Me-
Gilvray in q recent ISSUE the Herald
says:
Mr.. McGilvray is one Of the most
popular and competent engineers ths
the city has ever had, as may be judS
ed from the fact that every alderman
of the present council signed Il petition
to Mayor Hugo to retain him, when pro-
minent Republican politicians we've
bringing much pressure to bear to have:
a Republican engineer put in his place
last spring. The council that took this
stand is overwhelmingly against Mr..
McGilvray in politics. but every MEM
Der signed the petition.
The city engineers office used tn
cost the city from ST. goo to $4,000 an
nually, but during the administration
of the present incumbent this has been
cut down under s. $780, and even as low
as 81 800 Mr. McC'ilvray has done the
work formerly allotted to the principal
assistant himself and has personally
superintendent every contract that has
gone through his office. His ability is
evidenced by the manner in which he
looked after forty or fifty separate con-
tracts covering the building of the new
waterworks system, costing three
quarters Of a million dollars.
Those interested in the non-partisan
movement say that if a change in the
office is to be made, it could have been
made much better year ago than now,
with the vast interests involved in i'm
provements which will probably be
made in the next year. There is the
building of the Garfield Avenue
viaduct, the Tenth Avenue West via
duct, the street lighting electric plant,
the aerial ferry, and street paving con-
tracts. Mr.. McGilvray is thoroughly
familiar With the most minute details
involved in these enterprises, and un-
der his supervision much more money
could be saved the city than if an en-
tire stranger went into the engineer 5
office and took up work of such import

When Will Unfonism Die:

When the lion eats grass like an OK
And the fish worm swallows the
whale,
When the terrapins knit wool socks
And the hair is outrun by the snail,
When serpents walk upright like men
And the doodle bugs travel like frogs,
When the grasshoppers feed on the hen
And feathers are found on the hogs,
When tom-cats swim in the air
And elephants roost upon trees,
When insects in summer are rare
And snuff never makes people sneeze,
When fish creep over dry land
And mules on bicycles ride
When foxes lay eggs in the sand, .
And women in dress take no pride,
When Dutchmen no longer drink beer
And girls get to preaching in time,
When billy goats butt from the rear,
And treason's no longer a crime,
When the humming bird brays like an
ass,
And limburger smells like cologne,
When ploughshares are made out of
glass,
And the hearts of workmen are stone,
When ideas grow in jackasses heads,
And wool on the hydraulic. ram
Then uniOnism will be dead
And the country won't be worth

Developing Nicely and Will Sooon

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 1.-The organ
ization of the servant girls of Minneapo-
lis is progressing very satisfactorily,
and the union will soon be in shape to
attempt to solve some of the problems
which surround the servant girl ques-
ton. The field is a new one in this
part of the country and the outcome of
the movement will be watched with
much interest. Similar organizations
in the east have proven themselves of
much benefit to the workers of this
class, and it is believed that many of
the petty annoyance and greater evils
which surround the lives of working
girls will be done away with by pro-
per appreciation Of the relations which.
should exist between employers and
servants.
