men in the Council they challenge the
latter to disprove that such is the OBJ
ject or one of the objects of their mem
bership in that organization.
AS the Glob e understands the atti-
tude of the carpenter members Of the
Builders Exchange, they are not averse
to the Carpenters union, nor unwilling
to deal with it or to the existence of a
central body; they are willing to concede
union scale of wages and the union hours,
and they stand for arbitration of detailed
differences. Their statement of the case
has been made. II is now in order that
the public should hear that of the car
penters. When the situation is fairly and
fully presented, not before, the Gil o b e
will feel called on to convey its opinion

THE CARPENTERS, DIFFCRENC,

THE CARPENTERS DIFF ERENCE.
1t is not necessary or advisable, now
or at any later time, to PREJUDICE the is
sue existing between the journeymen car
penters of St Paul and the members of
Builders Exchange, in relation to the
Building Trades council. The questions
raised, however, in the published res lu-
tions of the master builders are such as
demand speedy and complete settlement.
No friend of union organization among
mechanics can lose sight of the fact that
the struggle thus far by men like the
union carpenters for the recognition Of
their right to combine among themselves
has been a hard one. The opposition of
employing builders to such organization
and combination has in the past Leen
more or less strenuous. But, as the res
olutions referred to make plain, there is
no longer any opposition to such crgani-
cation. The recent failure of the paint
ers' strike in st. Paul does not affect the
situation one way or the other so far as
unionism is concerned. The unions
among the men of the various building
crafts still prevail and will continue 10

The only question; then which the res
olutions present for settlement is wheth-
er the carpenters will withdraw from the

with their employers solely and only
through their union, submitting existing
differences to arbitration, or whether
they will remain identified with the
Building Trades assembly. There is of
course the alternative that the central
body abiure all right or claim of right
to interfere in the controversies of in
divdual unions by ordering or threaten
ing to order Sympathetic strike
The sympathetic strike is a dangerous
weapon. 1t is two-edged. In the hands
either of the employer or the employee it
can be made to work untold mischief.
The G b g does not believe that the
carpenters maintain, their connection
with the Building Trades council for the
purpose of awaiting themselves of the
sympathetic strike. That council is in
the nature OF its organization akin to the
Builders Exchange. The men have ex-
acuy the same rights in the matter of
organization which the bosses have. The
question Is whether the organization of
either is maintained in order to seeule
some unfair advantage over the other

WHY REMAIN srIEN,rs

There be exciting times III the Republic
an, reform-ruled community of Mime,
apolis. The grand jury is called upon to
look into the actual progress made by
reform and into the immediate personal
I-1ociation Of the leader Ct reform, Mayor
H.. a. Ames, with the operations which
Nave suggested themselves as fitting sub
jects for investigation.
The cause Of moral and political reform
is, we fear, endangered by the existing
situation in Minneapolis. Proprieitors Of
that Ingenious device, the nickel-in-the-
slot machine, having fixed things with
the reform administration. are now evil
IDENTIFY called on to fix them over again.
and the grand jury promises, from pres
ent indications, to take 2 hand in the fix
ing processes itself. The saloon keepers
have declared themselves 70 have been de.
ceived; and kept and unlzept appoint
ments with the eading reformer at his
office and elsewhere will come in for a.
share of investigation.
1t is certainly a most interesting phase
of this most interesting situation that the
organ in this community of political re-
form when conducted unCer the auspices
of the Republican machine, our aggres-
sively reform contemporary, the Pioneer
Press. published simultaneously in ST.
Paul and Minneapolis has not thus far
given the slightest sign that there is any,
thing whatever in progress in Mime
apolis which assails or is likely to assail
the agencies Of Republican reform and re-
trenchment in that city.
There was time, not 81 many years
ago, when Doc Ames, then AS now mayor
of Minneapolis, had several literary ana
political bouquets handed to him by our
contemporary. But in those days the
doctor professed to be Jefrersonian
Democrat, while now he is q most ardent
member of the party Of high moral IDEAS.
The absence of any SUCH fond attention
today on tie part OF our contemporary
toward the doctor would seem to Indicate

politicians, is at this season of the
year, dead letter. He is enjoying the
vacation since the close of the leg sla-
ture and throws up his hands the minute
anyone mentions politics to him. A Sec
ond district Republican must be mighty
sick of politics, however. when he won't
discuss the congressional situation, and

Frank L. Martin, a prominent business
man of Sydney, Australia, was reg stored
at the Ryan yesterday.
L. L. Hughes, of Seattle, Wash, who
happened to be in Jacksonville, Fla, at
the Windsor hotel when the terrible fire
started last week, was a guest of the
city for a short While between trains
yesterday evening. He was in the very
midst of the conhagration and gave a
graphic account of the disaster, which
he says was the most terrible of any
thing of the kind he ever saw. 1t was
his lot to be IN Chicago in 1871 when that
city was swept out of existence almost
by the great fire, but he says for the
time it lasted and the territory It had
to traverse the Florida fire was more
appalling even than the fatal flames
which devoured Chicago. He says that
the origin of the fire having been in
highly in1ammable building made the
task of fighting it an almost impossible
one and decidedly so for the facilities
which Jacksonville had to battle with.
Speaking of the scenes on the Streets
of Jacksonville following the calamity,

er to describe them. They were heart

year. No state senators will be voted
for in New York, but members of the as
sembly will be elected and there will be
a mayoralty contest in New York city
of more than state importance. A comp
troller, district attorney and local Off
GERS generally will be chosen in this city.
There will be no &C ngrcssionaI elections
this year, except to fill vacancies where
they exist by death or resignation. Crdi-
narily the state elections which occur in
the year next following a presidential
contest are of some national Importance
as indicating the general trend Of public
sentiment in the doubtful states, but such
does not appear to be the case this year,
for most of the states in which there win
be elections, PENNSYLVANIA, Massa-
chusetts, Iowa, New Jersey and Ohio, are
as strongly inclined to the Republican
party as Virginia is to the Democratic
party, and in Maryland, heretofore doubt,
full, there will be In operation this year
a new election law which, it is conceded,
puts the Republican party at a decided
disadvantage.

1t is sadden:ng and to some extent
humiliating experience to be obliged to
take cognizance of the deliberate disre-
gard Of good news matter by daily
paper for fear that political results
might be promoted by it's publication.
By the newspaper organ, Of high
moral ideals such as our con-
temporary is, such a lapse
from the straight and narrow path Of
supplying the intelligent reader with all
current information is totally indefensi-
pedient one. How, for instance, will
the Pioneer Press explain its silence II
it should happen that Doc Ames is ever
brought to trial on the charges which
are now laid at his door and at the door
of his administration? OF course such a
result must be avoided at all hazards,
the more especially as 1t is necessary.
particularly in St. Paul, to keep up the
idea that the only sure road to mu-
nicipal reform and retrenchment is to
keep the Republican machine in power.
Wicked Democrats viii watch the de-
velopments of the present interesting
situation in the other city with the pro-
foundest interest until they have cu!-
minated either in the most COM
plete vindication Of our con-
temporary's theory Of party po-
litical ethics, and Doc Ames, the Re-
publican-reform city executive of Min
neapolis is triumphantly indicated
against the charge that he and his ad-
ministration are in what is vulgarly re-
ferred to as "cahoots' with the thieves,
thugs and ,blacklegs of the adjacent city;
or until it is made to appear, in accord
ance with the preconceived views of our
contemporary, that st. Paul still main
tains it's ascendancy, under Democratic
administration, of being the worst gov
erned city in the world.
