Declines to Answer.

AS might have been expected
from the desperate weakness of its
position On the demonstrated dis
crepancies of $1,000, 900 in the
state books the Republic lodges
the seven simple, specific questions
we have asked it. The Republic
is plainly waiting for the election,
in the hope that if enough of Dem
Ocratic success can be found to
warrant it in saying that the dis
crcpancies are disposed of. That
Stiffness is vain notion. The dis
crepancies shown beyond denial
arc in the printed reports of Dem
ocratic state auditors and the
Docl<ery and Allen pamphlet, and
there viii stick until they can be
explained. When a legislature
opposed to the Ting is elected
and one can hc elected next month
if the people 50 dcsirc-a hipartis-
an committee will be appointed TO
examine the books and test every
voucher. Not until then can the
people hope to learn why the state
debt that should have been paid
several years ago is still nearly
s.. 900. 900.
Two years ago the ringters
! thought they had settled the school
| fund issue because they had carried
the state. But shortly after the
legislature met the ring discovered
that the certificates of indebted
ness violate the constitution. and
that ii would be decidedly incoA-
venicnt for the Democrrtic party
to 90 to the people and ask for 81,
321 ,s3o to pay the principal. Cor
nered by the ugly facts i'll the case
the ring got up il constitutional
amendment to Icgalize the certiti-
cafes and turn them into a rerpet-
ual tax to sustain them. BY no
other means could the ring claim
recognition for the certificates as
obligations Of the state, or evude
the payment Of the principal. with
a consequent admission to taxpay-
ers that the certificates themselves
are but waste paper put IN the
place of government bonds belong
ing to the schools. These discrep-
ancics and misapplications are not
the thing to be settled by a dozen
elections. These are facts embodied
in the absolute certainty of mathe-
mates. They will never down un-
til mathematicalIy answered. -

The adoption of the school fund
amendment to vindicate the Demo
crative party on the fund question
would mean nothing more than
that the people were willing to levy
perpetusI tax of three cents on
the S10O to give the ringsters a
vote of confidence. However, it
would be better to withhold this
vote of confidence, it would prove
too expensive. Vote 'No" on the
seventh amendment on the ticket.

At the last session Of the legisla-
ture Judge Eversole was always
found voting with his party on
questions which involved partisan
ship. He opposed the amendment
of the obnoxious features of the
Nesbit law: he also opposed the
resolution asking for bipartisan
investigation Of the books. W.
believe he voted against the pro
position to refer the law-making
power to the people direct through
the initiative and referendum. Re-
publicans elected him two years
ago-he is asking them to elect him
again-yet what advantage has it
been to any Republican that this
straight-out Democrat has repre-
sented the county. No doubt his
partisanship is now being held in
the background, but it will come tc
the. front again quick enough at Jef-
ferson City if he succeeds in fooline
enough Republicans to send him

terday and inspected the terminus of the
Grand avenue and Concord street car
lines which it is proposed to extend, the
one to Phalen park and the other to the
city limits
Their presence and the inspection made
gives color to the rumor that these ex-
tensions, together with line to South

year has passed. Tt is known that at

The Great Western Railway company.
whose trains now serve South ST. Paul
ties and the country adjacent with trans
portation facilities to and from the Saint

cised over the latest movements of the
street railway company, and is
attempting to combat them by
the preparation of an appear to
the South st. Paul council for fran
chise for term Of years. Instead of the
7-cent fare which now exists, the cons
pany is understood TO be willing to make
1t cents, conditional, however, on the
council giving it an exclusive franchise.
The Great Western company has also
been credited with dabbling in electricity
as a motive power for its suburban roll
ing stock, but that it will be used here
is denied by the company. 1t is, however,
jealous of the business it is enjoying and

REV. G. HI. M'DANIELS ADVOCATING
SCHOOL FOR THE COLORED.

Rev. C. H. McDaniels, of Springfield,
H., q colored clergyman, is in the city
delivering a series of lectures and ad-
dresses for the purpose of raising funds
to conduct manual training school for
colored youths in Springfield The
school is to be patterned after Booker
T. Washington's Tuskegee institute in
Alabama.
The promoters of the plan expect that
they will be able to open the school for
the first students by next June and they
hope that in the course of time, the
same beneficial results will be obtained
from 1t as are now gotten from the
Southern school. The school will be
called the Ambidexter Departmental in
stttute.
In it will be taught thirty-two trades
and lines of practical work, including
carpentering, blacksmithing, roofing, the
arts, etc. It is expected that the course
viii last six months, although it may be
prolonged <f there is desire on the
part of the student to take up a course
of higher education, such as history,
theology, literature, and practical math-
ematics.
Rev. MIR. McDaniels in the course of his
lectures frequently repeats the statement
that industrial education is the only
means Of saving his race, and that the
problem will be settled just as soon as
the colored men and women learn 80
serve the public in various trades.

GAS Men PROTEST
PROPOSED ORDINANCE RELATING
TO STREET EXCAVATIONS
AROUsES. OPPOSITION
OBJECT TO PUTTING UP BOND
Proposition Is to Levy Fee for In
specting Excavations Made in
e#s, Streets by Contractors
and Corporations

Before the members of the assembly
committee on streets last night the rep
resentatives Of the gas company in the
person of President Lathrop and At
torney Carl Taylor made strenuous op-
position to the passage of an ordinance
drafted by City Engineer Claussen and
which calls for official supervision Of all
excavations made in the streets.
The ordinance is compilation of all
| those now in force, and with the addi-
tion Of many amendments demands of
each contractor or corporation desiring
in any way to encroach on the streets
and alleys, to first secure a license ac-
company the same with a bond in the
sum Of 5000, and then pay the city fee
for inspecting the excavation or work
after it is completed. The amount of this
fee is in keeping with the size or char
acter of the excavation or Improvement
to be made.
The gas company in fling their objec-
tions, say the measure is tOo sweeping,
in that it tends to hamper them rather
than aid the city. They hold tnat much
of their work is of an emergency char
acter, and to call for a permit in advance
might cause them much damage They
are also opposed to the collection of the
fee in the manner the ordinance de-
mands.
City Engineer CIaussen, in support of
the ordinance, informed the committee
that something was necessary as it was
absolutely impossible in every case to Sc
cure the return of the streets to their
original shape unless inspected. and this
inspection he could not make unless the
| corporations and contractors We're taxed.
He says in few cases do the service cor
| porations leave the streets as they found
| them.
| The voIuminous size of the ordinance
forbid it's full consideration at one meet
| ing and the members in order to reach a
| conclusion postponed action and advised
/ Mr.. Claussen to confer with the con-
I tractors and corporations and find out
! exactly what was agreeable to them.
| The ordinance has been in committee
! for months, and since 1t was brought out
| has found lots of oposition from those 1t
| attempts to regulate. 1t is not thought
| that the measure will ever be passed in
| it's present shape.
| The committee also gave its approval
/ to the fire limits ordinance which has
| been hanging fire for some months. The
| limits take in the entire business dis
/ trict including Payne avenue South
! Wabashs and South Robert street are
| also included.
