SUGGESTS NEW CABINET.
But the King of Italy Doesn't Desire
Change Just Now.

ROME, Nov. 11.-At a conference
which Premier Giolitti had today with
King Victor Emmanuel at the royal
hunting lodge, the premier suggested
that the cabinet resign so as to rem
der ineffective the campaign of the
party of the extreme left. The con-
ference was made necessary by the
suicide OF Finance Minister ROsano.
This event, the premier believed, had
considerably changed the political sit
uation in parliament. He advised the
constitution of q ministry capable OF
accomplishing the reforms needed for
the prosperity of the country.
The king, while expressing his COM
plete confidence in Premier Giolitti,
said he wished to give further consid-
Grafton to the situation, at the same
time manifesting his determination to
avoid if possible, a new cabinet crisis.

sAvAeEs IN SILKS.

The spectacle of mob of well dress
ed women fighting for entrance into a
church in order that they may witness
fashionable wedding Is hardly an edi-
flying one. 1t may add to the gayety of
other nations, but it can only inspire
profound disgust in the minds of self
respecting Americans. This country
has been cursed with mobs of various
descriptions, but not the least degrad-
ing of these is the feminine mob Of
curiosity seekers. It is this same mob
that fights it's way into court rooms in
order that it may follow the trial pro-
ceedings of some brutal murder case,
and it is the individual members of
such mobs who send flowers to crimi-
nails and who weep over condemned
murderers.
Were these mobs made up of the poor
and the illiterate, their curiosity over
matters that in no way concern them
would be understandable. The East
enders who gather about some fash
ionable church in London where a we'd
ding is taking place assemble there
not to crafty a mere vulgar curiosity,
but to witness one Of the legitimate
attractions of the city, They are the
idle poor, and they swarm wherever
entertainment is offered, the police per-
hitting. But here in this country mobs
Of this sort seldom gather, for sturdy
Americanism keeps the poor self-re-
specting. 1t is not the woman with the
shawl thrown over her head who swells
the ranks of the curiosity seekers, but
she who wears an imported bonnet.
Fine clothes, of course, are not an
evidence that the wearer has fine
manners; but they are evidence
that she has superior opportuni-
ties, if she cares to avail herself Of
them. That ten thousand women
should swarm about a church merely
for the purpose of witnessing the mar
riage Of people with whom they are not
acquainted; and that they should, in
defiance of the police, enter that
church and denude it ofaits decorations
after the wedding ceremony was over,
may be taken as an indication that
there are at least that many women in
New York who belong in that most
hopeless class the class of the ignorant,
idle rich. Such a class is a constant
pin-prick to it's own nation and a
laughing stock in the eyes of every
other nation.

A CONTINUING SCANDAL.


The Globe cares nothing at all
about the two parties who are the
nrincipal contestants for the privilege
of doing the gasoline street lighting in
this city for the next year. 1t cares
a great deal about the city's reputation
that has been badly damaged by devel-
opments in connection with the letting
of this contract. It demands and the peo-
pie demand, that the subject shall not
be dropped; but that the city council
out of regard not only to what is due
10 the public but what it owes to itself,
shall purge itself of the heavy suspicion
that has settled upon it.
The facts in the case seem to be
very plain. Bids for this service were
invited and specifications prepared.
When the bids were opened one COM
pany was found to be far lower than
other competitors, SO that the accept
ance of its offer would mean the saw
ing of $4,000 to the city. There
upon arose a question of the quality of
the lamp-posts that it proposed to use.
To this there were two answers. First,
the city engineer, certainly competent
Judge. was asked to inspect the prop
erty and give an opinion. He replied
that it was in fair and acceptable
condition. Second, the city had alb
solute power under the specifications
to hold the contractor to compliance
with them. It was, therefore, appar-
ent that the city could not be the suf-
ferer if the terms of the bid were
stringentIy construed and strict COM
pliance required.
In the face of these facts, the council
refused to let the work to the lowest
bidder and ordered the preparation OF
new specifications and is preparing
again to call for bids. That the whole
affair is now in middle is not the
main point. tt question whether
the city has thelpamer at the present
time to place a contract; and it is a
question whether, after what has hap
pened there will be any competition
for this business in the future. What
We must insist on is that there shall
be some explanation of the amazing
action taken by the council; some con-
7cession to aroused and emphatic public
opinion.
Theamembers of the city council SIM
ply cannot AFFORD to maintain their
present attitude. They need vindf-
cation. No one can give it except
themselves. The special session of the
councils called Shy the mayor for the
purpose of preventing this scandal was
of no effect Do the members of the
council who have taken this position
realize what they are doing, what pub
lie opinion is and what the effect upon
their own future is likely to be?
We call for the strietest investigation
of this whole affair by the grand jury.
1t is a bold and outright defiance Of
public opinion and of common decency
that requires rebuke and punishment.
The people of st. Paul are full of
shame over the actions of their repre-
sentatives in this matter. They de-
mand a probing into this palpable scam
dial and the expression Of such indfg-
nation as will serve warning upon the
offenders and prevent a recurrence of
any such performance.

BOOKER wAsH1NGToN's GOOD ADVICE.

Booker Washington did not mince words in his
Raleigh speech last Friday, and the advice he
gave the negroes, from start to finish, was thor
oughly sound. Make yourselves good workmen-
good farmers, good blacksmiths, good carpenters,
good cooks, good servants. Insist on practical
training in your schools. Make money and save
it. Ostracise the idle and the vicious Of your
race. Draw the line on immoral negroes-draw
it in the church, in the school, and in your own
homes. Pay your taxes promptly and help sup
port the government that protects you. Keep on
good terms with your white neighbors instead Of
trying to court the favor of people a thousand
miles away. Uphold the courts and aid the prose
cution of criminals of all classes. This is the
gist of his address, and it is exactly the kind OF
doctrine the negroes need.
