Hmelight as an applicant for a police
appointment. To the surprise of those
who knew him best Wells was ap-
pointed and assigned to central station,
ranking as patrolman and acting as a
detective.
While so acting, and while there was
an epidemic of crime in the city. the
wholesale store of the st. Paul Rubber
company was robbed, and Wells was
one of the men assigned to run down
the thieves. No arrests were made,
but one day Wells was caught in pos
session of one of the coats that he
later admitted came from the rubber
company's stock, and still later it was
found that he had given away another
of the coats. There was hasty in
vestigation, the particulars of which
were hushed up. 1t is known that
Wells returned a number of the coats
to Albert Fisher, president of the con-
Germ.
Facts About the Detective.
Other revelations concerning the Re-
publican detective were soon to come.
James Y. Werrick, the working partner
of Wells, was taken sick Wells was
much about the Werrick home. Wer-
rick one day chased Wells from the
house, firing a revolver at the fleeing
man. Within a few hours Werrick
filed a complaint with Mayor Kiefer,
charging that Wells had despoiled his
home. Several sensational hearings
followed, in which Wells and Werrick
accused each other of almost every
crime mentioned in the statutes. Even
Kiefer could not stand the exposure
and discharged both men. Since that
time Wells has not been regularly en-
ployed until he caught on with the
kid aggregation and became the Of
fetal detective of the Republican
party
Even the Republicans were disgust
ed with the affair." it being evident
that the deputy sheriffs were aware Of
the fact that the warrants were issued
against dummies and that no arrest is
were expected. The descriptions and
the places of residence of the alleged
criminals were not given, besides which
the names had been given to the pub
lie some time before the warrants
reached the officers.
Chief Deputy Sheriff Hardick, him.
self Republican, voiced the general
disgust when he said:
How can the Republican city COM
mittee expect us to arrest these people
after they have been notified through
a newspaper that warrants for their
arrest have been issued? Even if the
addresses had been given and we
knew just who the men are that are
| named in the warrants, they have been
warned now and could easily evade US.
But only two of the warrants have any
| addresses on them at all, and the
names are all so common that there
are dozens of the same in the directory
and it would be almost impossible to
| find the right ones in any event.
This was some time after A o'clock
in the afternoon, and the six warrants
alleging illegal registration had just
| been delivered at the Office of the
sheriff.

N. P. LANGFORD SPEAKS

Assemblyman Cared for City Hospital
When Budget Was Up.

Every voter who appreciates the ex-

behalf of the sick poor of the city,
said n. 2. Langford, of the Ramsey
county board of control, to a GIob E
reporter yesterday, should cast a vote

been turned down by a strict party
vote Of to 4. DR.. Whitcomb saved the
item by asking for a reconsideration
and postponement of final action for
one hour, or until he could communicate
by telephone with members Of the
board, for further information. When
this had been obtained, Assemblyman
Rosen changed his vote, which, together
with those of Assemblymen Whitcomb,
Haas, Doran. Schiffmann and Van

vote to pass the appropriation asked at
that time.

WOULD HOLD PULPIT
FROM POLITICAL MUD
Continued From First Page.

The speakers topic was THE Rela-
ton of the Christian Minister to Law
Enforcement and Political Reform, -
and he said in part:
I'VE are not entirely agreed as to
the scope of ministerial work, some be-
lieving that in the event of illegal
liquor selling, gambling and kindred
things, as also in matters of political
corruption, the minister should take an
active part in bringing criminals to
justice and holding public officials up
to the light Of criticism and condemna-
ton.
Many who discuss the situation
are led into making charges they can
not prove, and thereby are discredited
as nOtoriety hunters, doing themselves,
their churches and the people they
misrepresent great harm.
While a few men who do these things
are prudent and safe, a good many are
not and produce divisions and es-
arrangements both unnecessary and in
furious.
1T turns the attention of men away
from salvation and leads to the idea
that we have given up trying to save
men from sin. and the most we hope
to do is to compel compliance with
temporal eXpedients.''
The speaker declared in support of
his declarations that indulgence by a
minister in the political function inter-
feres with the spirit of preaching, and
therefore lessons the likelihood of sue
cess; that it alienates men from the
preachers friendship and causes need
less estrangement; that the growing
custom of discussing municipal affairs
has certain Objectionable features, as
it neither offers Christ to men nor
seriously proposes to solve the city's
problems by the process of salvation"
Rev. David Morgan, superintendent
Of the Bethel, led the discussion fol-
lowing Dr. Givler's address, and took
issue with some of his views. He said
in part:
If the Rev. Mr. Givler could have
seen the condition of the city's morals
four years ago, and understood that
the pastors of the city, by arousing the
people from their pulpits, had brought
about the downfall of the gang respon-
sible for this condition, he would see
the matter in an entirely different
light
AT that time" he continued "a con-
dition prevailed too vile to be describ-
ed before this meeting, but a condition
TO which the city will never return"

SECOND WARDERS HOLD
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING
Voters Crowd Hall and Cheer the Dem
ocratic Speakers.

Two hundred enthusiasts damned
the hall, Third and Maple, last night to
near number of the Democratic
speakers discuss issues of the cam
paign. The meeting gave evidence of
its belief in the declarations of the
speakers that the Republican claims
of municipal extravaganza and corrup-
ton were totally false, and that the at
tack on the police administration of
the city was inspired wholly by politi-
cal motives, and with no reference to
the merits of the controversy. The
speakers of the evening were r. C.
Daggett, Stan Donnelly, Winn Powers,
Aid. William E. Buschmann, James
Cormican and Emil w. Helmes. The
meeting was under the auspices of the

City Committee Meets and Arranaes for

Every member Of the Democratic city
committee was present at a meeting
held last night at headquarters in the

workers for election day, and the men
so selected will meet Sunday afternoon

received from the various districts at

A good reputation is not easily earned,
and it was only by hard, consistent
work among our citizens that Doan's
Kidney Pills won their way to the
proud distinction attained in this To-
caIty. The public Endorsement of
scores of ST. Paul residents has rem
dered invaluable service to the COM
munity. Read what this citizen
says:
Mr.. ]. l.. Strauch, loans and dis
counts, Room 200 Globe building, says:
"Occationally there was an evidence
of an excessive accumulation of acid in
my system. 1 learned about Doan's
Kidney Pills and procured them at F.
M. Parkers drug store, 364 Wabasha
street, opposite the postoffice. Their
use was of great value to me in elm
mating this acid and restoring the
proper functions to the kidneys"

Democrats and Protection.

The Difference between the Republic
an and Democratic parties on the tar
iff question is radical and fundamental.
The former believes in protection to
Americanindustries because experience
has proved beyond doubt that it is
promotive Of the prosperity alike of
capitalist and workman, of manufac-
turer and wage Garner, of employer
and employee. The Democratic party
denounces protection as robbery, and
would wipe it out.
The Democratic platform attempts
to make an issue out of tariff revision,
but when Democratic orators talk of
tariff revision they mean destruction
of protection. 1t is the pro-
tective principle with which they
are at war. The Republican party be,
lieves in real tariff revision. Conditions
change, and as they change the tariff
needs modification to meet the new
conditions. The Republican party
would revise schedules, but still main
tain protection while the Democratic
party proposes not to revise schedules
but to abolish protection.

RAILROAD PROSPERITY BENZ
FITS THE PEOPLE

The Illinois Central's total pay roll
for the year ended June 30, 1904, ac-
cording to it's annual report just is
sued, showed a gain of $2,400,595 over
the previous year.
This is a significant bit of testi-
mony as to how times are still improv-
ing under Republican rule, and as to
the absurdity of the statement of H.
G. Davis, the Democratic candidate
for vice president, that 1.-The appre-
hension which now prevails in bust
ness circles and the present unsatis-
factory industrial condition of the
country, seems to demand a political
change"
The official announcement that the
stockholders of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road company now number 44,950-an
increase of 81 per cent. since May,
1902-is a significant bit of testimony
in a new quarter to the fact that here
in the United States not only is wealth
increasing, but that it is being more
generally and widely distributed than
ever before.
More men receiving larger wages,
more stockholders getting better divi-
dends, is the condition as regards the
railroads of the United States now as
compared with four and eight years
ago.

THE PARTY OF THE FLAG

Tie old flags still awaving, the stars
are clean and white.
The red and blue are cleaning, joy
to every sight.
With drum beat and with trumpet, with
musket and with sword
The old flag came to being, each thread
with glory stored.
We held it high, triumphant, when it
was but a rag,
And still we stand beneath it, the party
Of the flag!
The old flag and it's story! The old flag
and it's truth!
We wove it in the passions that marked
the nations youth;
We dyed it in the lifeblood Of our heroic
sons;
1t wrapped the laureled caskets Of our
heroic ones
1t waves today in honor from forepeak
and from crag,
And we stand proud beneath it, the
party of the flag.
The old flag and it's honor! The old
flag and its pride!
1t shakes a silent challenge whenever
it's defied;
1t whispers us a blessing all through
the starry night;
1t sings a song of safety when blazing
in the light.
It bushes all contention, all buster and
all brag,
And we stand firm beneath it, the party
Of the flag.
The old flag and it's meaning! the story
it has made!
The story of brave actions, of soldiers,
unafraid,
The story Of stern duty; Of faith that
there should be
One land from south to northland, one
land from sea to sea.
We held it high, triumphant, shot-rid-
died and rag;
And still we stand beneath it, the party
of the flag!

Ex-President Cleveland,s Failure.

Ex-President Cleveland is an I'M
imaginative man, and for this and
other good reasons his recent maya
zine article entitled why a Young
Man Should Vote the Democratic
Ticket" is Short pointless and uncon-
vincing.
1t takes a good deal of fervid fancy,
and a knack for invention, to con-
struct an argument upon a theme like
that. Mr. Cleveland was evidently ill
at ease with his subject. Probably few
young men will read the article, any
way, and no one will be influenced by
it.
The young men Of America live in
the present and hope for the future.
They do not care to be ever holding
post-mortems on dead issues, nor to
spend their days holding back the
wheels of action and progress.
The young men of the United States
are alive. And they will vote the Re-
publican ticket this fall.
