County Commissioners viii Ask the

The next legislature will be asked to

result of their visit to the lake yester-

The legislature will be asked to an

Commissioner w..B. webster, who
was IN the party, said last night after
returning from White Bear lake, that
no immediate steps would be taken to
increase the depth of the water. mas

present. "A comparison, however, of
the east and west shores shows plainly
that the water is gradually getting
lower, particularly along the western
shore. The water here is very much
shaiiower than along the eastern shore.

RIGHTS OF MOTHER AND BABE.

Iowa's new law, passed by the last
legislature at the instance of So
called advanced sociologists, to au-
thorize the taking of children from in
competent mothers and placing them
in better homes, is declared unconsti-
tutional by the Iowa court.
The court raised two points. first
that the act did not have proper title;
and second, that it deprived the mother
of the right of trial by jury, because
the proceedings are allowed to be
brought before the mayor, who has
summary jurisdiction. The court would
doubtless have entered into still more
vital principles involved, were it deem
ed necessary.
The case was that of a poor work.
ing woman with a baby less than a
year old. The philanthropie society and
club women and secretary of the AS
ISOLATED Charities sought to put If m
der what they considered better aus
pices. They secured the child while
the mother was away, and. it has been
in the custody of the police ever since
while the mother has been appealing to
the court to recover 1t.
Scientific sociologists everywhere are
interested in this case and are de-
pending upon 1t as precedent for the
advance of certain domestic reforms
the basis of which is the substitution
of the state under certain conditions
for the natural parents. Lawyers look
upon the innovation as something en-
tirely new in American jurisprudence
governing family rights, and funda-
mentally radical.
The idea of the sociologist seems to
be to engraft into American law the
principle which once held in Greece I'M
der the old Spartan code, whereby. the
state was considered the real Darent
of the child, and the rights of the nat
ural parents were subordinate. Rut
American law relating to domestic
rights is derived from the old Saxon
principle, that the home is mans
castle and that it's precincts are sacred:
that the rights of the. mother to her
babe transcend the interests of the
public; that the home is the social unit
and that the rights of the home and of
the family sheltered under it's roof are
primordial.
Plainly there are cases where chill
dren suffer because of the neglect or
lncompetency of the parents. What
parent who reads this has not felt his
incompetency to act wisely in govern
Ing or providing for his little folks !?
Perhaps the Iowa case may have been
one of exceptional fagrancy in this re-
gard. But in every community and in
every class of society the cases where
the child suffers because of the incom-
potency of the mother, or the wife suf-
fers because of the incompetency of the
husband, or possibly vice versa, are so
numerous, that the state surely is CO.

STREET MINSTRELS ARE
SILENCED BY CLARK
Acting Chief Declines to Permit Ed.

With Oreanists. H

How hath the art Of minstrelsy been

probably have been the remark Of Mas
ter William Shakespeare had his shade
been present at the central police sta
tlon last evening when two modern ex-
ponents of the profession arrayed in

Guiding fancy hosiery and patent
leatner boots, were ordered to cease
playing on the streets. They had been

strains from the modern and classic
composers excellently well rendered on
Vlol1ns of a sweet resonance which fill
ed the aid with their duivering melody.
Inc young men, neither of them over
twenty, have been in the city for
couple of days, and have been serenad-
ing the inhabitants of the more quiet
streets. They were last evening pick
ed up by an officer for playing without
permission, and sent to the station to
report themselves.

marked Capt. Clark. you might play

But 1t Is by playing that we make

ing to have its hands full if it proposes
to regulate family conditions on sci
entiffc basis.
And who knows that this scientific
sociological law-parent is going to be
any more competent? Are better
clothes a substitute for the mother
love? Is environment all? Is the nat
ural love of the mother for the child
and of the child for it's own mother
factor of no value in child education?
Cannot society do better to aid and
guide the mother in caring for her
babe. than to break the mothers heart
and send child through life without
mother simply to comply with So
Geological fad or a scientific fancy?
But beyond and above all of these
considerations. has a mother no rights
that society is bound to respect? If
there are primitive and inalienable
rights of any kind or degree, what
rights or interests stand before the
rights of the mother to her babe.

FRIDAY, AUG. 20, 1902.
is 1T UNREPUBLIcAN?

After tinkering with the election
laws through legislative session after
session, until everybody supposed that
the Republican legislative majority of
this state had the election laws gerry
wandered into the shape where every
thing was right from a partisan Re
publican standpoint, our Republican
friends are still far from satisfied.
Our genial and ambitious friend, the
Republican national committeeman
from this state, the Honorable Thomas
Shevlin, the pine stumpage baron, goes
so far as to declare that if the primary
election law which his party has been
tinkering into partisan shape during
recent legislative sessions is allowed to
stand, his party in this state will go
to the bow-wows. And now good share
of the Republican organs of the state.
large and small, are belaboring the
poor primary law which their cam
paign managers thought was amended
into an acme of partisan perfection.
Among the indictments brought by
Republican politicians and organs
against the primary election law of the
state are these:
That 1T has produced throughout the
state host of bitter local contests for
the various nominations, which is de-
stroying party union and harmony.
That it is splitting the party into
hostile factions both as regards men
and as regards issues, factions that
can never again be brought together.
That political interest will be so ex-
hausted in bringing out the Republic
an vote to the primary elections of
sept 16, that it will be i'm
possible to get out the party vote
again at the final election seven weeks
later.
That the host of defeated candidates
after Sept. 16 will be so tired and
disgruntled after prolonged primary
election fight, that they will take no in
terest in the main contest in November
and that in many cases defeat at the
primaries will lead to the knitting Of
nominees.
That the Democrats, by keeping out
or the primary election contest in
strongly Republican districts, will have
an opportunity to defeat the Republic
an nominee by supporting an indie
pendent candidate.
That interest in the general state
ticket and in the party at large is be-
Ing destroyed by local contests.
That Republican candidates for CON
gress and other important positions. in
aghting the denomination of the ures-
ent official incumbents. are departing
from orthodox Republican ground and
Noicing such heterodox Democratic

FIRST IN RAILWAYS.

The annual report of the interstate
commerce commission gives the United
States a total railway mileage of
265,366 miles, an increase of 6,5S2 dur
ing the year.
The total railway mileage of Europe
last year was 1851. That is to say,
the United States does business over
10000 more miles of railway than all
the nations of Europe
The amount of railway capital in
of the commission, is a little under
$12 900, 900, 900.
The total railway investment of Eu-
rope is $4,000, 900, 0OO-only SO per cent
more railway capital for, six times
our population.
The number of tons of freight car
ried by American roads last year was
approximately LOO, 100000. This is al
gate freight total of Europe-MulhalT
last estimate being 1,O43, 100000 tons
for all Europe. The comparative pro-
ductivity of the United States with Eu-
rope, per capita of population, is thus
shown most graphically. AS the bulk Of
the products of each country, which
enter into the channels of commerce,
are at some point subject to railway
carriage, the fact that the United
States produces as heavy a freight
tonnage as all Europe, although with
only about one-sixth of the popula-
ton, is something worthy of economic
attention.
In passenger traffic Europe naturally
is far in the lead because of the vast
difference in population. The Ameri-
can passenger traffic last year reached
607,o00,000, an increase of over 10000
000 The European total is about four
times that, although not so great per
capita as in America.
The gross receipts of American rail-
ways last year were $1,58S, 00O, 600
about s100,000,00O less than Europe.
The American increase as compared
with the year before, however, is
marked, being over 100000, 900, or
about Z per cent.
Operating expenses of American
roads for the year amounted to $780,
100000, an increase of $68, 00O,O0 Null
halls estimate of the cost of operating
European roads in 1897 was $945, O0O,-
600. Thus the United States spends as
much year for railway operation as
all Europe; and taken as a whole the
railway system of this republic-mile-
age, earnings, cost of operation, capital
investment, and volume of traffic all
considered-is a proposition of very
much the same magnitude as that of all
the nations of Europe combined. 1t is
this vast internal traffic and commerce
thus represented that in no small
measure makes the United States the
leading world power commercially and
industrialiy, and the most dominant
factor in the worlds commercial fu-
-ture.

ST. PAUL MUSICIANS
HAVE A GRIEVANCE
Local Artists Object to the, Employ

at Como Park.

Local musicians are somewhat ex-
ercised over the engagement of the
Minneapolis Newsboys' band to give
concerts at Como park. They believe
that the music at the park~should be

izations, and to this end called at the

Inc contract between the park
board and the city railway company
expired when the Minnesota State
band gave it's sixty-fifth concert at the
park last Tuesday Any music that is
furnished now has no bearing at all
upon this agreement or contract.
The holder of the refreshment con-
cessions at the park has engaged the
Minneapolis band to give concerts, and
this has caused all the trouble.
