Young rlen and the Pulpit.

According to statement of the Con-
is falling off in the number of young
men who would become workers in the
vineyard 1t is said that the theologi-
cal seminaries are not attended in such
numbers as they were in years past.
From these facts it would seem that
young men are not inclined to become min
listers The ministers association at
tributes this to the mistaken impression
that the ministry is over crowded and
that the work of one who enters that
calling is of more than the average
strenuousness. In this practical age
young men are seeking avenues of en-
ployment that will bring to them rich
rewards. They fear that the life and la
bors of a minister are not such as will
cause treasures to be laid up for old age.
1t is a matter of regret that the pulpit
does not offer better inducements to am
bilious young men who possess bright
minds and whose abilities would be the
means of doing so much good in the
world The fact remains nevertheless
that the majority of congregations do
not appreciate their shepherd to the ex-
tent of paying them salaries out of which
portion can be laid by for rainy day.
Ministers are human; they must live in
a manner beftting their calling. They
are forced to entertain their brethren
and their purses are subject to calls
from the needy and the distressed. Their
lives are not all sunshine, even though
they stand forth and preach the gospel
of Him who came into the world to make
mankind the better. Young men are
aware of all the conditions which sur
round the pulpit and while many of them
have inclinatIons in that direction they
fear to step forward and suffer the
many discouragements and trials that
are sure to be their companion were they
20 enter the ministry.

From Saturdays Daily.
A message from Senator Eberhart this
forenoon contains the welcome informa-
ton that the two bills prepared by
County Attorney Wilson, relating to the
protection of horses and other animals
from the inclemency of the weather and
the blanketing of clipped horses in cold
weather, passed the house yesterday.
These bills have already passed the SEN
ate and are now ready to go to the COVER
nor, as they passed the house yesterday
without amendment. 1t speaks well for
the humanity of our lawmakers that
these bills should go through both houses
with so little opposition. The Blue Earth
delegation in both houses is deserving of
great credit for their good work in get
ting these bills through.
The senate passed the omnibus road
and bridge bill this forenoon. As passed,
it contains provision for $4,000 for a
bridge over the Minnesota river at judi
son. Two years ago an appropriation
of $1,000 was secured from he legisla-
ture, and the present appropriation
makes the total $4,000. The bill also
contains an appropriation of $400 for a
bridge across Perch creek in Ceresco, sec

Moorheal and Duluth was killed by the
senate yesterday after it had been rec
commended for passage by the committee
of the whole.
The measure came up on general or
ders, Senator George P. Wilson of Min
neapolis moved that it be reported for
indefinite postponement. The motion was
defeated by vote of Is to IA. Senator
Schultz moved that il be reported favor
ably. Senator H. Witherstone of Roches-
ter argued against the measure, saying
he had supposed all the time that it was
a coke" Senator Schultz informed the
senator that it was no joke.
Senator George R, Laybourn of Duluth
moved that the bill be referred to it's
author, but Senator Durant, who occu-
pied the chair, held that the motion, be-
ing synonymous with the motion for indie
finite postponement, was out of order.
A motion by Senator Schultz that the
measure be recommended to pass was
adopted.
The bill was afterwards excepted from
the report of the committee of the whole
and indefinitely ! postponed. Senator
Schultz explained that ,he had introduced
the measure in good faith with promises
of support from several senators, and
that since they had left his ranks he
would make no further fight.
The measure proposed to turn the
Moorhead school into a school of manual
training for boys and girls; he Duluth
institution into school of mines and

The Paramount Question.

The Milwaukee Wisconsin, one OF the
leading Republican journals of the north
west, discusses the recent meeting in
New York at which ex-President Grover
Cleveland and other distinguished citi-
zens expressed themselves upon the negro
problem, and then proceeds to show the
gentlemen how far away they drifted
from the paranaount question, which is
simply this: Shall one white vote in
South Carolina or Virginia be equal to
five white votes in the north? The dis
Reimbursement of the colored population
of the south without any reduction OF
representation in congress for that sec
less. The Acknowledgement of the color
ed voters in the south will surely tend to
weaken and destroy the political and
moral influence of the voters in the north
and west. And yet Grover Cleveland is
such false and fraudulent Democrat
that he is willing to accept the disfran-
chisement of the negro without any re-
duction of representation in congress.
The good of the white people of the
north must be considered in every step
of the new problem. While Mr.. Cleve-
land praises the Tuskegee institute, it
is only to make it appear that he has
some sympathy for the negro. He has
little or none for the mass of voters in
the northern and western states.
President Roosevelt is determined that
the laws and constitution of the United
States shall be obeyed throughout the
republic But the modern doughfaces
are willing that 100000 of negroes
shall be DISTINGUISHED, though it inficts
an enormous wrong upon the freemen
of the north. The great civil war was
fought to establish political equality.
Now the people of the north are threat
ened with a campaign of inequality.
We hope the Democrats will be fool
ish enough to renominate Cleveland. He
is evidently itching to try MS chance
again in crusade against the constitu-
ton of the United States, which posi-
lively declares there shall be no political
inequality on account of race, color or
previous condition of servitude. The is
use has to be squarely met by President
Roosevelt, and with him as the leader of
the real democratic party in the United
States, the doughfaces will be swept in
to a deeper hole than they dropped into
after General Grants victory at Apo
mattox
