rEIr-,,EBITED THINGS.


AT its last meeting of the year the.
members of the city consolidation COM
mittee Of the st. Paul Commercial club
took pains to bestow a special vote of
thanks on Mr. John caulfeld its chair
man, for the zeal and activity he had
shown, in the discharge of the work Of
the committee.
From a body composed of many of the
ablest, most public spirited and Jealous
citizens of St. Paul such courtesy might
well be regarded as an honor by any
man. To have deserved it, he must sure
ly have shown exceptional Qualities.
The consolidation committee has been
active in many ways since its organiza-
ton fer the city's betterment. It has
done excellent work, and its members
have not saved either time or labor IN
promoting the several laudable purposes
in connection with the city's welfare to
which they have addressed themselves.
The honor thus bestowed on Mr.. Gaul-
field was well-merited He is almost uni
yersally recognized among our people as
painstaking and conscientious man,
filed to the very brim Of his nature with
personal energy, and ready to ex-
ercise his faculties in every direction
for the general good. He is unpreten-
tious and retiring in his disposition.
Men of his stamp usually go their way
without any special thought being be-
slowed upon their superior devotion by
those around them Their very superiority
is regarded as entirely matter of
course.
AS city official Mr. Cauldeld is almost
IDEAL No public department could be
better administered than our water de-
partment It's secretary's connection
with it runs back to the time when he
was stripping. He has grown up WITH
the service, and its efficiency is in great
est measure due to his exhaustive knowl-
edge of it's details and to his excellence
as an administrative officer.
TIL e G. ODE cordially unites in avow-
ing the general sense which prevails of
the splendid services to the city of his
birth rendered by Mr.. caulfeld both as a
man and a public official
1t is said that the pope is not disposed
to take any notice of the coronation of
the English king. Probably not. When
a man has turned eighty he may have
much more serious matters to devote his
attention to, even if he be no pope at
all.

1t Has Already Been shown

1t will soon be shown beyond all ques-
ton that the Republican party is too
firmly within the grasp of the protected
interests to be Influenced by the senti-
ment in favor of tariff revision, however
strong that desire may be among the
people.-Appleton Mimi, Press.

They are few, indeed, who will not
sympathize with Commissioner claussen
in the indignation he expresses 1T the
somewhat vague report of irregularities
among his force. No one thinks of inn
putting anything wrong, or the counte-
nanclng of anything wrong, on his part
individually But is it not better for Mr..
Claussen to wait until the public ex-
aniner has said all he has to say con-
corning his examinations Mr.. Claussen,
as well as the general public, will then
be in 9, better position to pass judgment men
on the situation.

render the Philippines capable of proaue-
ing revenue for their own consump ton.
We have been pouring money down that
national rat-hole so long that it is about
time we made at least an effort to get
some out Of it. Hence the avowed neces-
sity of tariff law for the Philippines,
and an enabling act which will operate
as a sort of constructive notice to that
dangerous instrument, the constitution,
to keep away from the vicinity of the
national flag in the Philippines.
Altogether Democrats have many real
sons for taking off tlleirshats to Mr.. JUS

found sense of the august position which
that gentleman occupies in the internal
economy of this nation.

1t requires some considerable nerve to
live and die the son of a very rich man
without making fool of ones self. The
career of the dead Pullman, and of the
live Strong and thousands like him, show
that men who ought to know better have
not even the most primitive understand
ing of the parental obligation. Perhaps
it is because they want to be out of the
way when the explosion comes that SO
many rich men die before they scstow
on their progeny such splendid facilities
for revealing the devil in their natures.

There is talk of bringing Joseph H.
Choate back from England and sending
John Hay to take his place. The ar
rangement is an admirable one both from
the American and British point of view.
Hay has been a success abroad and a
failure at. home. Choate has been fail
ure abroad and a success at home. In
addition to all this Hay wears his whisk-
ers in way to suit the British; Choate
has no whiskers to wear.
They are thinking in England of pass
ing a law which will enable women to be
imprisoned who leave their young c-lii-
dren alone with fire. thereby endangering
their lives Why not try the experiment
of saving the poor women the necessity
of leaving their children alone with or
without fire? Some such measure would
be quite as likely to lessen the prevailing
heavy infant mortality in England.
Carbolic acid has been found very eff
fective by the Marseilles port authorities
in destroying rats, and they believe that it
may prevent the plague infections which
have so often been brought by rats. It
probably will. 1t has been effective for
very many years in removing quite a
quantity of suicidal carrion.

WINNING THEM OVER.

They are beginning to find out In
Cleveland that Mayor Tom Johnson is
no humbug and that he is earnestly
and honestly endeavoring to bring
about true and wholesome reforms.
The Cleveland Press, which has been
radically opposed to him, has now
come over to his side. It realizes that
Johnson means business. II says.
"All true lovers of justice will ap-
plaud the mayors work for the
smoothing down of tax inequalities
and will hope for his ultimate success
The human goose squawks less, as
the feathers are plucked from him, II
he can witness the denuding of his fell
lows.
1T is the idea that the fellow next
door, by some social or political pull
or other unfair advantage, is avoiding
his Just share that gives most Of the
weight to tax burthens. Under a Just
equitable, impartial system, men would
take real pride in being taxpayers
whereas, now, the rich hide their tax
able wealth and the poor bear the
stronger mems loads without relief. It
Is the injustice that hurts
most. The mayor is In a
rather peculiar position. Upon
his advice, large percentage was ad-
ded to the valuation of his peoples
property for taxation purposes He
must eliminate the lnjustiCe--the in
equalitles-or stand convicted of fool
ishly augmenting the injustice. His
tremendous expenditure of labor and
time on the work Is strong proof Of
his sincerity. II he Is sincere and con-
tinues to be fearless, impartial and
consistent, his success seems 70 be
only a matter Of obtaining the support
of legislation and the people. He has
established at the city hall a bureau
where maps Of the wards have been
prepared and where he can come into
direct contact with the property own
ers, on certain days. This sort of labor
for the public deserves to be met with
the hearty cooperation of the public,
1t is difficult to do much for a patient
who refuses the doctor all Information
The Press urges property owners to go
to Doctor Johnson and tell him where
they ache.

A POLITICAL BANK SWINpLE.
Tho Seventh National Bank OF New
York City. has been closed by the
Comptroller OF Currency under circum-
stances which indicate that some gi-
gantic stealing has been going on, The
cause given by the Comptroller for his
action was that $1,000 900 of the banks s
money had been loaned to a firm spec
ulating In railroad stocks, practically
without security. One sum of 100000
was given to the Arm on checks drawn
on a fictitious deposit In another bank
The comptroller somo days ago order
ed that the entire loan be paid or that
the bank suspend business, The dlrec-
tors pretended to comply with the Or
der, but In reality simply disposed of
l,OOO,OOO OF good securities, retaining
the worthless securities put up by the
spectators Hence the order to dlscon-
tlnue business.
The Seventh National Bank was in
part owned by the Heath family, OF
which Perry $. Heath is the political
member. As assistant postmaster gem
eral he secured the deposit of immense
sums OF money order money in It, and
otherwise favored II. It's failure under
such circumstances simply adds one
more scandal to the name of the man
who had to retire from Office because
of his connection with the Cuban post
al steals. He still stands high in the
administrations favor, and is in
charge OF the Republican Literary Bu-
reau, but this last incident" makes II
practically certain that he will not
again be placed in a responsible posi-
tlon.

The value OF land In a great city has
long been recognized, hut few people.
perhaps, have realized how far up and
down real ESTATE ownership extOnds
A lawsuit Gust decided In New York
has settled the fact that man can get
damages II his nelghbor eneroaches
for even few inches on the air above
the land 10 which he has q legal claim,
The evidence In the case just decid-
ed showed that the wall Of q twenty
story building on Broadway oyerhangs
the land adjoining at the irst cornlce
Of the building three inches and a
quarter; at the second cornice three
Inches and three-quarters. AT tho New
street end there Is an overhang OF
one and one-elghth inches, and In ad-
ditlon to this there are overhanglng
cornlces and swinging shutters. The
owner OF the air encroached upon got
opinions from experts that the conse-
quent Injury 10 him was from $4,000
to $250,OO0, says the Boston Globe.
Judge Lawrence of the supreme
court has awarded to the sufferer
$4,000 damages, He says that the de-
fendant will be enjolned from main
talning the cornices and swinging
shutters, the injunction to take effect
when the plaintiff decides, II at all,
to carry up his building, which Is four
stories high, or to erect another higher
building. If the defendant agrees to
pay the $4,000 the plaintiff must give
an acqulttance of all claim for the en-
croachment Of the wall. The defend
ant must also declare that he will
make no claim of adverse possession
for the time the cornices and shutters
remain.
Real estate experts say that the case
Is OF such Importance that It may be
carried to higher court on an appeal
The present decision has shown, how
ever, that the plaintiffs hopes for
damages were not altogether "in the
air" Theoretically, 1t would appear, a
mans ownership of piece OF land ex-
tends upward to the limit of the at
mosphere and downward to the center

SWISS RAILROADS.

They have a very crude and oppres-
siye way of handling the railroad busi-
ness in Switzerland. About two years
ago the government bought the entire
railroad system Of the nation, and pro-
ceeded to show what 1t could do. Az
ter increasing the wages, reducing the
hours Of the employees, and reducing
the tariff to one-third its former rate
on both freight and passengers, the
officials were not satisfied and put In
a system Of season tickets, by buying
one Of which for $40 you can ride on
any railroad In the nation as often as
you please, as long as you please, and
at any time within Its limit that you
please. Did you ever hear of such
oppression? Was tyranny ever more
tyrannous? How glad we should be
that we live in free country where
we have to pay three cents mile to
travel, have to use the Nicket on the
day of purchase or lose 1t; where we
have to sign our name and prove our
identity to- every conductor; wiYere

INpIA's BALANCE OF TRADE.

lNDlAS BALANCE OF TRADE.
The following items are taken from
an article published In the Boston Pilot
Of July 7, under the title of Starving
india" This article had a number of
facts and figures taken mostly from
yearly Famine in india" by George
70. Buell. Of Rochester, N. Y.
The wheat crop OF India in 1899 was
2S2,5S5QO0 bushels, The average an
nuul wheat crop for the last eight
years was 234, ,057, ,75O.
Over 35,400,OOO bushels of wheat
were exported from India in 1899; 49,
500,740 bushels is the average amount
annually exported from India for the
last eight years
Note from the above figures that In
dia raised n little less than the aver
age Of wheat last year; but that she
shipped out Of the country two and
one-elghth times more than the aver
age shipped.
The Pilot comments as follows upon
the foregoing paragraphs
According to the favorable balance
Of trade" theory India is the most
prosperous Of countries, for her ex-
ports are always in excess Of her i'm
ports and especially SO in famine
years.

THE SCOOP NET MAN.
Where He Figures In tho Departure
of Big Liners.

Where nc Figures In tho Departure
of Big Liners
Just before Ward liner leaves her
East River pier for Cuba or Mexico
big, strapping negro, carrying q net
attacned to long pole takes up his
position alongside the gangplank and
nervously looks from those gathered
on the wharf to the tourists assembled
alongside the steamers rails. When
the gangplank is hauled to the wharf
the negros eyes roll in every dlrec-
tion, and he fidgets the pole as IL he
had an awful responsibility upon his
brawny shoulders, The net is about
the size of one used in grabbing, but
the pole Is about three times as long.
Sometimes the net and pole are not
used at ALL and the negro goes away
and puts 1t into locker when the
ship backs into the stream. His face
brightens up as he does this. Fre-
quentlymessengers arrive ON thewharf
late with bundles, letters or telegrams;
or passengers on the ship about to
back away suddenly remember some
thing which they jot down quickly
and pass ashore. 1t is under such
emergencies that the negro and his
scoop net play their short inning. Quick
es the fash Of gunpowder he places
the package or message in the bottom
Of the net, and with a deft turn Of his
wrist pokes the article in question un-
der the nose Of its owner. No other
steamship line uses a scoop net In this
way, and ordinarily once the gang
plank Is withdrawn communication be-
tween the ship and the shore is closed
except to the old-fashioned and sell
successful mode Of hurling a let
ter wrapped up in bunch Of keys
aboard, or to the more expensive habit
Of chasing the craft with special
chartered tugboat. At best this net
play is a quick move, for scarcely q
few minutes mark the removal Of the
steamers gangplank and the start OF
the ship streamward, II once passed
a pocketbook aboard that passenger
had forgotten" said the knight Of the
net recently. l learned 1t had $4,000
in 1t. The wife of the man going
away brought 1t down just as the
plank had been pulled in. The ship
had begun to go astern, and tell you
them lawn tennis chaps never had to
play as fine game of touch and go as
l did then. This net delivery is the
invention of the stevedore, whose men
have had to put valuable papers aboard
ship on the fly, 1t is the only system
Of its kind in the country, so far as
knew. We are all very proud OF the
plan.--New York Press.

BURDEN UP BY MlLIrARIsM.

poses are carried, Added to the regu-

this will bring the total appropriations
for these purposes made at this ses-
sion OF congress up to $424, 265,24S.

the manufacturer is entitled to his raw
material free, the farmer should have

the farmer does not produce himself,
but has to purchase as the product Of
