can get away from it we will; and
most of us believe that it would be
better to get away from ii instantly at
almost any cost rather than to go on
bearing it's burdens.
From the encroachments Of this idea
let us at least save the country school
Inferior as it too often is, weak in the
quality of its instruction. because I'M
able or unwilling to pay for the best,
narrow in it's accommodations, yet it
possesses the stimulating atmosphere
of intellectual liberty. The child there
can grow naturally, follows his bent,
develops according to his own inspira-
ton and remains a human being, in
stead of pitiful little cog in a big
machine. Those who propose this
change mean wen. but they are
thoughtlessly planning the completion
of a great crime against the child. Let
us improve the country school, as we
should. by giving it better quarters,
better teachers and better apparatus,
but LET us save IT in an its essentials
as a model to which we shall eventu-
ally make our graded city schools con-
form.

At St. Paul Theaters


Next week Is Mansfield week. The
actor will appear at the Metropolitan
in three of his greatest roles. He comes
by special train Of eleven cars. One of
these is his own private car. Four
drawing room coaches are for the ac-
commodation of his numerous company
of l06. The scenery, horses, furniture,
properties and baggage occupy six bag
gage cars. The personal trunks of the
members of the Mansfield organiza-
ton number over 112, and there are
nearly 100 trunks Of costumes. Added
to these are large number of crates of
furniture and pictorial para hernalia.
To accommodate each of the Mansfield
productions as it is brought to the
theater the stage will be shorn of
everything except it's drop curtain.
Mansfield brings everything for his
plays.
The series of characters he has
chosen is a graphic commentary
on his versatility. Two of them are
new TO us, and the other has not been
seen in SO long that it comes with all
the quality of novelty Monday night
Mansfield will be seen as the Prince
Karl Heinrich in "Old Heidelberg; "
Tuesday night as the Tar Ivan in
farewell Wednesday night as the fas-
cinating Beau Brummel.'
The Four Cohans, under the personal
direction Of Manager Fred Niblo, with
their big company of seventy-tw peo-
pie, will be seen at the Metropolitan
opera house June Is for three nights
and Saturday matinee, presenting
George M. Cohan'S latest musical fri
volity, Running for Office" The same
large company, the original settings
and costumes will be seen when the
curtain rises.
Judging from the patronage at the
Grand this week the drama, THE
James Boys in Missouri" seems to be
quite popular with the Grand'S patrons.
Miss Percy Haswell and the George
F'awcett company will begin a stay of
several weeks at the Grand, presenting
as the opening play next Sunday night
POtter'S ramatiZatiOn of Du MaurierS
story of "Trilby." 1t was thought at
one time to be poorly adapted to stage
representation, but the fallacy of this
belief has been demonstrated by the
success of Potter's dramatiZation. The
full strength of the FaWcett company
will be seen in this play The sale of
seats will begin this morning at
o'clock.
The Trocadero Burlesquers are en-
tertaining crowded houses at the Star
with a we'll balanced vaudeville and
burlesQue show. The specialists with
the company are exceedingly clever.

Cleveland Won't Come Down

Grover Cleveland's candidacy for the
ST. Louis nomination won't down.
Asked the other day whether he would
support the nominee of the St. Louis
convention, whoever he might be, Mr..
Bryan declared it too early to answer
the question. He has in mind evident
iy the probability of Cleveland's nomi-
nation. The influences most promi-
nently allied with Judge Parker are,
with the sole exception of David B.
Hill, friendly to the Sage of Princeton.
They would gladly, failing Judge Par
ker, accept Cleveland. Some of the
Wall street representatives now boost
ing Parker would, in fact, prefer the
former president to the philosopher of
Esopus. Hill-himself is for Judge
Parker, more to keep Cleveland out
than to have the New York jurist go
in.-Louisville Herald.

SAYS JAPS WILL WIN
BECAUSE IN THE RIGHT
M. Sugimato, a Japanese Merchant,
Declares Russia Is Inhuman

II insist that Russia is inhuman,
brutal and immoral, and the Japanese
will win because they are right" said
M. Sugimato, Japanese merchant of
Cincinnati, at the Merchants hotel last
night, as he waited for a train to take
him to Vancouver and thence by boat
to his beloved fatherland.
Sugimato is a wholesale dealer in
Japanese curios-which he nalvely says
for the most part are made in Japan
at Cincinnati, and is going home for a
two months visit, during which he win
combine business with pleasure. He
has been in the United States for a
matter of ten years, but speaks Eng
lish with decided accent.
Japan is fighting the battles of CIV
ilization," he said last night. "She is
fighting for the open port in Manchuria
and the independence OF China and
Korea. Her people are determined to
win and they viii win because they are
in the right. 1t may take time to over
come Russia with her great population
and resources, but the Japanese are
confident that the struggle will end in
their favor

FOR THE DISTRICT BENCH

In the nomination and election of
judges, party attachments should not
be considered; though in the absence
of other methods of nomination the
party machinery is still used for that
purpose. But character, fitness and
experience should be the sufficient and
only tests
Judged by these, there can be none
better fitted for the position of district
Judges than the two gentlemen who
have just filed for office under the
Democratic name. Their support will
not be, as it should not be, determined
or limited by party. While it is neces-
sary, under the law, to nominate them
as Democrats, we hope and expect to
see them elected as citizens, as they
should be on their merits.
Judge Bum stands as high in the es-
timation of this community as any
man who ever sat upon the bench Nor
is his reputation local; for the sound
ness, lucidity ard logical force of his
opinions, his clear understanding of the
law and his close application of it to
the host of cases that have come be-
fore him have won for him a reputa-
ton throughout the state The bar and
the bench at large have the highest
opinion of his merits, and none can be
found to deny that a failure to retain
him in Office would be a most serious
misfortune to the people of st. Paul.
Neither can we speak too enthusi-
D. O'Brien for the judicial office He
has had long and varied professional
experience, familiarizing him with all
branches and all the details of the law.
He is man of the highest personal
character and the most admirable per-
sonal traits. He, too, has the judicial
temperament; the mode Of thought
that weighs and balances, that sees
both sides of question, that scans it
from all points of view, always with the
desire and determination that the truth
shall prevail and justice be done.
With Hon. George L. Bum and Hon,
T. D. O'Brien on the district bench,
there would be that fair division be-
tween the two parties without which
the judicial Office cannot be divorced
from partisanship; the dignity and
standing of the bench would be pre-
served and heightened; and that most
important department of government,
the judicial, would be in the custody of
men absolutely faithful to duty and
wholly competent for the trust. To
that same decision we believe that our
people viii come, and we urge it upon
them now before the fires of party
feeling begin to blaze with the fierce
ness that marks them in the later days
of a political campaign.

INCREDIBLE woRrHLEssNEss

The board Of county commissioners
sis constantly opening before our view
new vistas of official worthlessness. and
humiliating us by the conviction that
they can be much worse than we had
believed possible. The latest revela-
ton is that they are permitting liquor
to be sold III various places throughout
Ramsey county outside of the city linn
its without a license. One of the county
commissioners says that. sfthere are at
least ten saloons in this county out
side the city limits, and not one of
them pays a license. The county should
collect $4,000 year from these places"
After discussion by the board and
advice by the county attorney that it
was the duty of the members to close
these illicit rum holes, that body was
so far wrought up as to pass a resoIu-
ton instructing the county auditor to
notify one saleonkeeper to take OUT a
license. No action was taken with re-
gard to the others.
No opportunity whatever seems to be
lost by this extraordinary body to in
suit public intelligence and &c waste
public funds. The monumental Jail
scandal is fresh in memory. The throw
ing away Of quarter OF million dol
lars into mud holes for political pur-
poses, and the prevention by this
means of good roads for the county are
familiar to all Passing from such

AND GRANTS NEW TRIAL
Lawyer Denounced Witnesses AudibIy
as Jury Was About to Retire

The recent action of Attorney
Blocker, of Minneapolis, in making
charges against witnesses before a
jury which was about to retire net
only resulted in an order granting a
new trial, but in some severe COM
ments on his conduct by Judge Orr,
who handed down the order granting
the defendants a new trial yesterday.
Attorney Blocker represented the
plaintiff in the case of Max Rabino-
witz against Paper, Calmenson & Co,
a suit in which the plaintiff sued for
and recovered a verdict for $50
Just as the jury was about to retire
Attorney Blocker, in a loud voice,
characterized the testimony Of GER
tain witnesses in strong terms, stating
that it appeared to him to be deliber-
ate, atrociouS and shocking perjury.
Judge Orr condemns the action OF
the attorney and grants the defend
ants motion for new trial.

SOLVING A PROBLEM

One Of the problems which have
bothered penologists and sociologists a
great deal has had to do with the en-
ployment of prison labor in some oc-
cupation that would promote the
health of the prisoners by useful ac-
tivity and at the same time avoid
1t would appear that the state board
of control is in a fair way to solve that
problem. This is to be done by the
simple plan of making freaks of the
inmates of the state prison, putting
them on exhibition and charging sight
seers for the privilege of gazing on
this notable aggregation of ladies and
gentlemen who have been Gagged to the
end that their fellows might live in
greater security and comfort.
We are informed that this plan is
already in operation at Saltwater, and
that the total paid admissions last
L OSSOdy AulHUSISu dUOul OVU, SGOSS re-
ceipts SIS.
1t will be at once apparent to the
Snowman and the penologist that the
board of control has happened on a good
thing that simply wants developing. If
the criminals prove an attraction to
800 people, with no expenditure for ad-
vertising, the poorest kind of press
slightest for the patrons of the show,
what might not be accomplished if
modern methods were applied to the
conduct of the enterprise? There is
not a Snowman in the country but
would take the prison on lease and
guarantee the board of control a fair
percentage above the cost of maintain
ing the prisoners. Or it might be con-
Quoted personally, as at present, with
Warden Wolfer as general manager. It
is true that the plan must interfere
to some extent with the good thing
that some people are enjoying in pris-
on contracts, but we are willing to as
sumo that the contractors would not
stand in the way of the change Not
nearly so much machinery would be
necessary in conducting the prison as
a museum, and the natural appeal to
the aspirations of the prisoners in per-
hitting them to pose before the public
would insure their good behavior, so
that guards might eventually be dis
pensed with.
The advantages of publicity are
urged upon the board of control The
state should be billed. The partisan
press might be depended on to run
series Of reading notices in exchange
for the usual courtesies at the gate.
Then the expense of billing the state
with three-sheet posters would be com
paratively inconsiderable, especially as
the printing might be done in the
prison.
We shall not feel that the board of
control has done all that is possible in
developing this plan to make the pris-
on self-sustaining until the dead walls
and billboards are enlivened with post
ers to this purport:

Contemporary Comment
Tannmanl Accused of treason

Charles F. Murphy says solemnly
that the Tammany delegates to st.
Louis will obey their instructions and
vote for Judge Parker, but not till they
nave warned all the other delegates
that he cannot carry New York. This
Is singular sort of obedience. The
Iammany delegates were not obliged
to accept their elections. They might
nave refused to go if they had to 60
under instructions they did not like.
Tammany may not be a better judge
now than on some other occasions of
the sort of candidate that can carry
the state. AT any rate, it looks very
much like treason for it's delegates to

CAN'T USE CENTRAL

School Board Refuses to Let Sunbeam

The board of education yesterday

to use the assembly hall in the Central
high school building, it being asserted
that an expense of $1,000 would be
necessary to make the hall entirely
safe.
The members of the board thought
that such an expenditure at this time
would not be warranted, and by a
unanimous vote it was decided to re-
fuse the request. Mrs. Clark proposed
to use the hall for Sunday afternoon

that is being interested in the growing
