EDITORIAL NOTES.
Interesting Notes From Our Special
Political Correspondent.

President Roosevelt has taken q
necessary, courageous and we'll
timed stand. He has declared for
the "Open door to labor" in all
Government Establishments.
After all, the crisis in Wall Street
appears to have been merely the
squeezing out of some over watered
stocks. The country at large has
left no inconvenience.
Japan still insists that those
Manchurian ports will not open any
wider than bear-trap.
1t was Speaker-to -be Cannon who
conferred with the president re-
garding elastic currency. Senator
Platts call referred to elastic pat
ronage.
And now Mr.. Bryan announces
that the democratic failures of
1896 and 1900 were due to Mr..
Cleveland's unpopularity. But
Mr.. Cleveland is too much occupied
in the nursery to even hear the
COmmOner's scream.
The republican press is still in
sistent in it's demands that Post
master General Payne be per-
mitted to retire. Republican
editors feel that Payne is too heavy
load for the president to have to
carry, even to retain Mr.. Hanna's
favor.
Saint Louis has adopted a new
rule whereby members OF her
police force are required to have
chest measures equal to their waist
measures. That's cruel rule for a
city containing such magnificent
breweries.

The United States Attorney for
Brooklyn is still saying to the in

It is suspected that the officers
and crew of the Kearsarge will all
have to go into training to recover

hospitality.
Even with the macarOni trust
organized, there is little likelihood

duced to return to their native

And now it appears that the
United States is to receive a large
consignment of undesirable Jewish
emigrants as a result of the Kishinef
massacre. Mr.. Hay has now
ample grounds on which to hand a
formal protest to Russia.
Tom Johnson is still to the front
in Ohio democratic politics. APP
parently Mr.. johnson is not a
negligible political quantity.
1t is unkind to suggest the Gar
den of Lies" as an appropriate
place for Prof. Moore and his
brother weather prognosticators to
hold their international conference.
1t is a little hard to understand
why Old Geronimo should have
joined the church so far in advance
of the Christmas tree season.

The Wall street markets re-
covered sharply as soon as Sec
rotary Wilson announced record
breaking lamp crop in the west.
Information concerning the
whereabouts of the Judge Parker
presidential boom is desired by the
democratic king-makers.
President Roosevelt has twice
demonstrated his friendship for
labor First, during the coal strike,
when he created a commission
which protected the interests of the
laboringman. Second, in the case
of the Government Printing Office,
he has refrained from creating false
hopes on the part of the unions
by showing them the limit of rea
sonable demands on their part.
Secretary Cortelyou continues to
hold the place in the cabinet closest
to the president and his eminent
good sense is manifested in that
his preferment never generates
cOnceit.
The postoffice investigation is
progressing very nicely. The
Postmaster General, by the way,
is cruising about the Atlantic.
Virginia has fred,a judge out of
office who fogged parson for ex-
posing judicial tricks. But if
rumor can be relied upon she
still has a dozen judges whose
official tricks merit equally drastic
reproof.
That was a pretty cheeky thing
for this country to undertake to
regulate the internal affairs of
Russia, and the Gar was fully
justified in treating the suggestion
somewhat cavalierly.
Russia declares that her main
object in Manchuria is peace. But
China seems to think she is after
too large a piece.
For a fierce warrior man with a
double edged tongue Kaiser Will
helm has fewer actual combats at
arms than any great conqueror of
| modern times.
Russia has promised to open to
the world the Manchurian ports in
| October. But she doesn't say
whether the ports to be opened
shall be the harbors or the port
holes on the Notifications and
battleships.

diary spirit of the mob breathes upon

The same desire to do justice with

mob and deal as sternly within the law
with it's victim as any could desire.
AS we have said, this passion for
lynching is but one phase of the care
less Indifference, the. contempt of law
that has become too familiar in the
American state. That law possesses no
longer any inherent sacredness; and
men are ready to violate 1t on any pre-
text, for a great end OR little one,
if only they may feel reasonably Sc
cure against it's penalties. AS long as
this spirit prevails it will be useless
to preach crusades against lynchings,
which are by no means the most de-
plorable Or dangerous exhibitions of
it. The lynching picnic is but symp-
tom of a disease infinitely more deep
seated and threatening than anything

The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-08-11
HOLLAND is AWARDED
CONTRACT FOR WELLS
Will Sink Artesian Wells at White
Bear to Raise the Lake.

The board of county commissioners
yesterday awarded to Martin Holland
the contract for the artesian wells at
White Bear lake, the object of which
is to furnish water for raising the level
of the lake. Mr.. Martin bid
1910 per foot for 12-inch wells and
$685. for 10-inch wells. The village of
White Bear has agreed to furnish the
land upon which the wells will be drill
ed
Commissioner Wright insisted that
the lease be drawn so as to allow any
number of wells, but Assistant County
Attorney O'Neill was of the opinion
that such sweeping resolution would
be invalid, as it would run counter to
the purposes for which the park was
originally dedicated.
Commissioner Powers objected to the
terms of the contracts, for the reason
that they did not provide for the pipe
running below the surface of the lake.
Unless the pipe ran below the surface
of the lake, Mr.. Powers thought, the
wells would be useless. L. p. Ordway
said the water board had sunk eighteen
or twenty wells on the same plan at
Centerville, and that they had been
successful. Mr.. Powers still objected,
but the contract was awarded in the
face of his objections.
Small appropriations We're made for
road repairs, and an invitation from
the city council to the commissioners
to visit the detention hospital was re-
ceived and placed on file
