At the election in Kansas City TUESDAY
the entire Democratic ticket was success
full. For the first time in years the city
is completely under Democratic control.
The issue of the campaign was the al
ministratiCn of Mayor Reed, a Democrat,
who was a candidate for reelection. lie
had been a good and faithful official, his
administration was progressive agrees
i've, pubLc-sDirited, and the voters ex-
pressed their satisfaction by giving him
another term. They wisely needed the ad-
vice not to swap horses crossing a
stream. They let wen enough alone. keep
ing in mind the times when they had no
well enough to enjoy.
Democrats all over the country have no
reason to be discouraged with the re-
suits of the spring municipal campaigns.
They experienced no serious losses any
where, made substantial gains in a num-
Der of places, and showed everywhere
disposition to get together and stick to-
gether against the common enemy.
There is a particular lesson for st. Pau
in the Kansas City result. Mayor Reed had
made a satisfactory chief executive, as
Mayor Smith has; the former asked re-
election on his record as an Official and a
citizen, as Mayor Smith does. and he was
given the vote of confidence by his neigh
bors, as Mayor Smith will be.
1t is especially easy for the voters OF
st. Paul to continue Mayor Smith in Of
fee, for ne has been weighed in the bal
ance and found full weight. while a ike
test applied to Mr.. Doran has shown him
lacking many pounds of the necessary
weight.

PEArFoRM .4ND CANDID LIES.


The platform on which the candidates
of the local Democracy are about to enter
on their campaign for election is in all
its details an admirable document. 1t
presents succinctIy and forcibly the only
issues which are involved in the cam
paign. AS long as Democrats adhere to
the claims made and the facts stated in
that document there is little fear of tn lr
being unable to satisfy the voting popu-
lation that the present administration Of
Mayor Smith should be sustained.
Man for man, the Democratic candi-
dates will compare favorably, in point of
personal character and special fitness for
the office sought, with their Republican
opponents. 1t is on the merits of the sew
eraI candidates and on the excellence OF
the administration given during the past
two years by a Democratic representative
that the campaign must be fought and
can alone be won.
Democrats do not care to engage in any
mere war of words, or in any campaign of
personal insult, such a has been in
augurated by the newspaper writer's and
the platform orators of the opposition.
There is no need of it. If we are going
to win we must win on our own merits
rather than on the lack of merit of the
others
Robert A. Smith is mayor. So has Mr.
Doran been. The records of the two are
open. The people must decide whether
on the experience Of the past two wears
they ought to discard Mayor Smith for
a man whose record as mayor from 1895
to 1883 is well known an understood
Otto Bremen has been city treasurer for
one year. He was selected because the
people thought he was particularly vi
qualified by experience and character for
the position. Their experience since has
sustained that view. His opponent is a
reputable citizen, engaged in business and
fulfilling useful function in daily life
He has no known special qualification for
the work of handling the city's finances
He Is understood to be a candidate
rather as a matter of party devotion than
with any view to being elected. And. as
between the two men, the voters certainly
ought to be able to judge without de-
crying either

Conceal Disagreement by
Artificial Hair.

NEW YORK, April 9.-It is safe to say
that when Thomas Barry, known among
cabbies as Foxy Grandpa purchased
a false tail for his horse, RAT Tail" he
had no suspicion that this act Of kindness
would almost land him in jail
Rat Tall through some ailment had
lost every hair in the aforesaid tail It
caused much amusement to the cabbies
and much wounded pride to Barry. He
rectifed it by purchasing false tail that
looked almost as natural as the real one.

Barry had a call at the Twenty-fourth
street entrance of a hotel at o. m. A
handsomely gowned woman ordered him
to take her to an address in Fifth avenue
She entered the cab and Foxy Grandpa"
gathered the reins. One of them had
caught under the horses tail Barry tried
to yank it loose and in doing so the
whole tail came off.
The woman looked forth just in time to
see the tail drop. She was out of the
cab in an instant.
You villain, you have pulled that poor
horses tail off, she screamed 81 will

Policeman Betz rushed across the
street. A crowd gathered. Foor Barry
stood with the detached tail in his hand,
In vain he tried to explain that the tail
was a false one. Rat TaiP' looked
around in silent sympathy.
The woman, almost too angry to speak,
commanded the policeman to arrest Bar
ry. The crowd increased. The policeman
waited for an opening and finally found
a chance to explain the situation to the
woman. She was increduIous at first. but
on being convinced, made a rush for
another cab and drove off amid the shouts
of the spectators. Barry regarded his
horse sorrowfuTy.

A meeting Of the officers OF the various

Of the two candidates for comptroller be-
ing we'll understood.
In point of ability, character and Mt
ness the gentlemen who are nominated on
the Democratic ticket for judge Of the
municipal court are the equals if not the
superiors of those opposing them; While
the Democratic assembly ticket represents
one of the strongest aggregations OF
names for public office that has ever been
presented at any time by any party IN
this community. The aldermanic nom1-
ices are all strong men. There ought
to be no question whatever Of Democratic
success in many of the wards in which,
ike the Fifth, among others, the undesir-
ableness of the Republican nominee is
generally recognized.
We know the lines on|whlch this con-
test ought to be fought, and we VIII ad-
here to them This is not true OF our op-
ponents They are at war among them
selves as to the particular preteXts on
which they ought to appeal to the COM
munity to save them from defeat. One
element, representing the b1ackguardism
of the party, has decided on campaign
of personal infamy. Another, led by Nc
Cardy, seeks to deceive the people by
sleight-of- hand performances in figures.
Still another thinks that Mr.. Doran' S
backbone ought to be put in evidence and
kept in evidence throughout the campaign,
as an object lesson Of what the city might
gain by his selection once more as its
mayor
1t really does not matter what they ultl-
mately decide on. We can meet them and
beat them at every point of attack. ana

them to carry. But the earnings sum
mary will silence all croaks. The Bur
lirgton single-handed makes an earnings
showing that takes care of the guaranty.
The new fiscal year up to the date of
the latest monthly respectfully 1 to
March makes a stronger showing for
the two Northern roads, than even the
calendar year. For the eight months of
the new fiscal year, the Great Northern
reports So, 31S, 431, as compared with
$40, 49, 26 for the same period the year
before-an increase of $5,8S9,7O5, or 80 per
cent For the eight months and two
weeks, July 1 to March 10, the Northern
Pacific reports $30,134,O85, as compared
with $23, SIC, 484 for the same period last
year-an increase of $6,317,5O1, or IS per
cent.
By reason of the severe drought of last
summer in the central western corn beft,
it was feared that Burlington earnings
would suffer But for the eight months
of the new fiscal year Burlington gross
earnings are $32 694, 6O4, as compared with
$50, 200,078 for the same period the year
before-an increase of 81, 1874 526, or 8 per
cent, instead of a decrease. For the
eight months of the cur ent fiscal year,
therefore the aggregate gross earnings
volume of increase for the three roads
of the Northern system is $14, $50, 1872, which
is 20 per cent above the total for the cor
responding two-thirds of the prevlous
fiscal year.
There is no more accurate and reliable
index of Industrial growth and CONNER

railway traffic. The above traffic figures

FIFTEEN billions INCREASE.
The gross earnings of American rail-
ways for the calendar year 1901. as sum-
married by the New York Commercial
and Financial Chronicle, gives the conn-
try good idea of Northwestern growth
and development, as well as an intel
Hgent conception of the financial re-
sources of the Northern railway system
of which the Great Northern, the North
ern Pacific and the Burlington are the
three cooperative factors.
1t is significant. that in the entire
list of American railways the Northwest
has two of the five railroads showing
the largest volume of increase in 1901
gross earnings as compared with 1900
The Northern Pacific stands fourth in
the total list with an increase of $685.
$50. The Great Northern comes fifth
with an increase of $4,945, 100; while the
Burlington stands at the head of the
Chicago roads with an increase Of s.
81, 1898.
The New York Central, which is known
in two hemispheres as one of the great
est railways in the world, ranked sixth
in volume of gross earnings increase
coming next after the Great Northern.
The Canadian Pacific ranked tenth. and
the Union Pacific twelfth. Of the Chi
cago roads, the Rock Island' ranked
next after the Burlington; then came in
order, the NORTHWESTERN, the sMil-
waukee," the Omaha" and the "Great
Western
The aggregate increase of the +broo
roads constituting the reorganized North
ern system was SIS, AIS, 13S, or upwards Of Il
per cent upon the total volume of gross
earnings. The first year of the coon
Grafton of the three roads under one
financial control, therefore, has been
eminently satisfactory from the stand
point of volume of traffic. It speaks
not only for successful traffic manage.
ment, but for the growing resources of
the Northwest whose transportation in
terests it subserves.
When the Great Northern and the
Northern Pacific, on July 1, assumed the
stock of the Burlington, giving for it q

a guarantee of 8 per cent dividends on
