John O'Connor is, per Sc, the most
efficient chief Of police ST. Paul ever
had. He is intelligent, cautious,
persistent, and possesses the detec-

Taking these things for text,
DIR. Boyle denounced the police de-
partment, and the whole admins
tration of St. Paul, in the most
scathing terms. The sermon ap-
peared in all the City papers the
next day and furnished an almost
exclusive topic of conversation.
The mayor, the members of the po-
lice commission, the chief of police,
county attorney and others high in
the councils of the party in power
were taken unawares, and they
were so astounded that they were
speechless. The mayor denied any
knowledge of, or responsibility for,
the existence of things which came
under the supervision of the police
department. The chief of police is
appointed by the police commission,
and the mayor appoints the commits
sion, yet Mayor Smith says he new
er dictates to the commission or the
officers appointed by it.

The representatives of the police
department, without denying a sin
gle statement of fact made by DR..
Boyle, plead in defense that there
is no more vice of any kind in St.
Paul at present then there was dur
ing Republican administrations, and
that there never was a time when
the city was more orderly or better
governed than now. The county at
torney claimed to think the charges
MADE by DR.. Boyle were not on
ly exaggerated but that they were
Matched up on the eve of municipal
election for political effect.

The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1904-04-27

To the person who views things
philosophically and without preiu-
dice there are different ways of
looking at the situation. In the
first place it is impossible for po-
lice department or any other agency
or combination of agencies to make
all the people of a large scity live
strictly within the laws, or to pre-
vent vice, absolutely. Lawlessness
and immortality may be restrained
and kept within certain limits, but
that is all. The question in this in
stance is whether or not there is
more lawlessness in ST. Paul at the
present time than there might be,
and il so what is the cause. Every
statement Of fact made by Dr.
Boyle is doubtless true. There is
probably some form of gambling
going on at every one of the places
designated, but the nature and ex-
tent of the transactions may have
been somewhat overdrawn. Minis
tiers, as a rule, are unexcelled in
the art of word painting and it can
not be denied that the pulpit some
times yields to the temptation to ex-
aggerate while in the midst of a
spirited philippe.

DEATH OF MRS. E. D. FRENCH.
A Patient and FOrbearing Lady Relieved
of Her Long Suffering.


Mrs. Susan A. Kelley French,
wife of the Hon. E. ID. French, pas
sed away at her home on Ramsey
Heights, at 1880 o'clock, Tuesday
afternoon, April 10Th, after an i'll
ness that extended over several
months. A cancerous trouble,
which gradually ate away the
life of the patient, was the cause OF
the demise. During the long
weeks of suffering Mrs. French,
knowing that the end was rapidly
approaching, was patient and for
bearing to marked degree, never
complaining, and always ready to
meet the final call. With the suffer
ing more intense from day to day
death was welcome.
Shortly after six o'clock Monday
evening her physician, DR.. Corpron,
noticed perceptible change in her
condition-one that indicated that
death was near. He informed Mr..
French, who was ever at the bed
side of his wife when official work
did not keep him away, and others
in the residence. DR.. and Mrs. E.
A. Lyman were notified by phone
and telegram was sent to the only
son, George French at Bemidji.
Mrs. French continued to sink
gradually until the time when she
passed away, when all the relatives
in town we're at the bedside.
The funeral was held from the
residence at 2 o'clock Friday after
noon, Rev. Z. G. Nicholson OF the
Christian Church, officiating. The
floral tributes were many and beau
tiful, among them being one from
Charity Chapter, No. 30, Order d
the Eastern Star, of which Mrs
French was member. The inter
ment took place in Redwood GENE

Susan A. Kelley was born il
Bradford, Pennsylvania, on June
10, 1915, one of a family of II chill

who had just been discharged from

ley county, residing there unit
1884, when they moved to Iowa
where they resided for one year
and then came to Redwood Falls
where they have since resided.

A bomb was recently thrown into
the camp of the officials of the St.
Paul city government by DR.. Boyle,
of the House of Hope Presbyterian
church. This courageous clergyman
alleged in the course of sermon
that St. Paul was honeycombed
with vice and wickedness, which
appeared to exist in bold defiance
of law. Not only that, but he told
of a dozen different places in the
heart of.the city, giving street and
number, with innocent looking cigar
stores in front, where gambling of
different kinds was going on night
and day in rear rooms. He also
gave the precise location of several
so-called policy shops, and told how
many disorderly houses were known
to exist within a certain number oil
blocks on East Seventh street. The
defniteness with which he located
and described these resorts made
his remarks the more sensation.

for him had been doing some thor

A Crooked snfrc.

The most curious spire in England is
at Chesterfield, the leaning tower Of
Pisa not being more interesting to
sightseers than the queer kink in a re-
spectacle church. which tradition says
was caused by the devil kicking out as
he passed the spire. The devil had just
had his hoofs shod by local black
smith, and his pain was so intense the
edifice was shaken out of shape. An
other and wittier legend says the spire
was bowling to lovely and virtuous
bride. Many noted persons have in
years gone visited Rowsley and quaint
Peacock inn and thence Travelled to
Chesterfield to gaze on this freak OF
nature for natural causes are supposed
to have bent the spire. rather than an
irritable devil whose hoofs were not
shod to please him.

Vital Writing on Labor Questions.

George H. Gordon, widely known
through the West during the past ten
years as an authority on the Labor
Question, has written the publishers
concerning Joseph R. Buchanans book:
i'Of all the books recently offered
which deal with the Labor Question, l
know of none which has the intrinsic
worth of Mr. Buchanan's modest recital
of The Story of a Labor Agitator We
have had learned announcements from
college presidents, where conclusions
have been based on second hand infor-
nation; we have had books by capital
lists who have gone among the 1owly'
and written of their experiences, and
we have had books which were largely a
mixture of these two classes. 1t is with
relief, therefore, that we are enabled
through the enterprise and courage of
the Outlook Company to read real book,
written by real man, whose experience
of the wrongs that press upon his class
was not matter of a few weeks or
months, or temporary interest or
sympathy, but was burned into his
heart by actual contact and personal
experience"

A test vote showed the sentiment on the
latter to be about evenly divided.
The guarantee plan raises small
amount to guarantee all death losses.

lodge will only change assessment rate
on members over 55 years, who pay zoe

PLANTED TWO TREES.
President and Family Observe Wash
inuton's Birthday Thus.

Washington, Feb. 23-President and
Mrs. Roosevelt celebrated Washing
tons birthday by planting each tree
in the White House grounds. The.
trees are fern leaf beeches. They
were removed from Garfield Park, it
being necessary either to transplant
or to destroy them ON account of exca-
vations in the park incident to the con-
struction of the new railroad terminal
station. The trees were planted in the
area within the semi-circular drive
way leading from Executive avenue TO
the White House, one on each side or
the main walk The ceremony OF
planting was very simple.
The spades used will be preserved
in the White House. On the blades or
each will be painted a scene of the
tree planting and a legend indicating
the location and time of the setting
out of the trees. They thus will form
a permanent record of the ceremony.
