THE cONFEDERACY AND THE
UNION.

In Sundays paper we printed a COM
municaton from Hon. a. c. Heermafis'
of Christiansburg. In which he took TO
TASK those, Confederates who shy they
nre not glad that the Confederate cause
failed and that tho South wns whipped
back into the Union. Dr.. j. Wllllam
Jones. at our request, replied to Mr.. l1eer-
mans. but there are u few points which
I'VE wish to add
In order to appreciate the situation, the
point of view must be changed. We must
20 back to Appomattox. suppose Inc
Confedcrates had then known what was
.n store for them. Suppose they could
have foreseen lhatIhe. enamel pated slaves
were To be clothed with the right OF
suffrage and turned loose upon the South,
with carpet-baggers from the North to
lead them. Suppose they could have tore'
seen that white men were to be disfran-
chlsed and that the affairs OF govern
,nent were to DO put into the hands or
this black -and-tan horde. Suppose they
could have foreseen all the outrnges,
the plundering and the debnuchery OF
reconstruction, including the attempt to
pass the force bill and kindred measures
Suppose they had foreseen the terror OF
!. Southern, women as black nends prow!ed
around. Would they have surrendered?
Mould they not have preferred death
to such humiliation and suffering as
this accurscd regime promised?
And now. let US again change the point
of view Let us come down to the pres
ent time, and let US take a look back
ward For Confederate to be glad that
the South failed Is for him to be glad In
spite of the curse of reconstruction. lie

A South Side Crowd Is Determined
to Drive Out the He

The Prosecuted Peddlers Dare Not
Cross the Dead Line-Tenth
Avenue South.

Chief of Police Conroy has been asked
to stop the Jew-baiting which is being
carried on in South Minneapolis A crowd
Of roughs, all about nineteen years old,
have sworn to drive the junk peddlers out
of business. Thus far ten peddlers have
been attacked while on their wagons and
in several cases injured by stones and
sticks. Last Saturday J. Silver was
pulled from his wagon and severely
bruised about the back and shoulders.
When he was able to get up he hitched his
horse and started for an officer. The
gang tried to prevent this at first, but
on second thought decide dthat they could
do more damage if they allowed him to
go. Before an officer could be secured the
wagon was overturned and the horse
taken block away, after which the
crod dispersed and no arrests could be
made. . sE.
Complaints have been made to the 20
lice several times recently, but they were
considered trivial and nothing was done
except to- notify the officer on the beat
The attack on Silver, however, has
brought matters to a climax. All the
members of the gang are boasting of driv-
ing the peddlers off the streets.
A delegation of junk men and produce
vendors, who have been attacked, asked
Chief Conroy this morning to stop the
persecution. He said he would do every
thing in his power to arrest the entire
gang, and If necessary he would attend
to the work personally. ~'.e5
One of the men said he had been as
sailed repeatedly and twice his license tag
had been taken from him. The boys usu.
ally meet in body at about p. M, jus
as. the peddlers are fling home with thei1
loads, Lille in wait for, their prey.
The Hebrews say that they dare no
venture south of Tenth avenue until the
gang has been broken up.

LIKELY TO WALK OUT
Cabinet Makers Demand More Paw
=: and Shorter Hours.

The indications were this afternoon that
majority of the 800 members of the
Cab1netmakers' union would strike for
higher wages and a shorter working day
Tomorrow, John Walquist, a member of
the union committee which has been seek
ing to adjust the difference between the
employers and employees, said this after
noon that there was little prospect of
a settlement being reached. The union
now demands a nine hour day and a min
1mum wage of % cents an hour. Hereto
fore the cabinetmakers have worked ten
hours a day at a minimum wage of tn
cents an hour. ?@E:
1.-THE employers said Mr.. waluuist,
have thus far declined to make the de-
sired concession, and If we do not hear
from them before 5 o'clock this evening,
when our men quit work for the day, a
strike will be declared to take effect to-
morrow. We have given. the employers
our ult1matum and have, made what l
consider to be a very reasonable request,
We have no further overtures to make,
and if they want to effect a settlement
it IS up to them. Otherwise our men will
not return to work tomorrow morning"
Mr.. Wahlquist explained that several of
the twenty sash and door factories Of the
city had already practically agreed to ac-
cede to the demands Of their employees.
establishments where harmonious rela-
lions continue to exist between employers
and employees will not be affected by the
threatened strike.
The union decided that a strike was
in order at a meeting last evening.

In summing up his figures, for the last
school year E.. M. Van CleYe, clerk to
the superintendent of schools finds that
the total number Of: pupils admitted the
year 10000 was 1882. There are thus
more children in the public schools of
Minneapolis than there are men, women,
children and babies in the two prosperous
and important cities Of Winona and Still
water, and a few small towns thrown in
for good measure. 's..s.
The increase in. school attendance over
the previous year is 1902, while the, lat
ter Itself showed. a. gain of 928. Should
the same rate of growth be maintained,
the total school enrolment for the next
year will be about 1,0O0
The total number admitted in the high
school grades was 1922, but including
those promoted from the grades at the
opening of the second semister,. the total
is 1856.
i The increase in the high school admisl
sions has been phenomenal, for while the
| increase in total admissions has been only
about 3 per cent, the increase in high
school admissions has been about IL per
cent. The school authorities have no ex-
PLANTATION except that the parents are
anxious to give their children as much of

compelled to assist in providing for their

Minneapolis this summer. 1t is up to

will be soon.
y AT its last meeting the Minneapolis Real
Estate. Board sinstructed its executive
committee to communicate to the man
agement Of the street railway an express
sion of its desire that such cars be placed
in operation on the Minneapolis lines.
Similar action will be taken of course, by
the ST. Paul Real Estate Exchange.
Visitors to other cities have witnessed
the advantage ;of these cars and have
urged for some time that a similar system
be adopted here. The officials have re-
Piled to previous similar requests that the
plan had been tried here: several years
ago, and that the cars were not supported
by the public. In. reply the board will
call attention to the fact that the plan
used in other cities calls for a conductor
who, with a. megaphone, gives notice OF
the approach, TO. points Of interest an6
adds interesting details concerning them
This. feature. added, it is urged, woule
make the scheme feasible here when sc
many strangers are in the city.
