THE PASSING OF THE KNouTe

Already the little child that has
come to the czar and ezarina of RUS.
sfa seems to be leading that nation
into gentler and more humane ways.
The czar's eagerly awaited manifesto
does credit alike to his head and his
heart. for it confers some substantial
benefit on every class, and these bene-.
fits are of the sort that must make a
strong appeal to the gratitude of the.
recipients. Unfortunately the curse of
Russia is that the most humane .ukase.
is liable to be badly or indifferentiye
translated by imperial officers not ins
sympathy with the intentions of the.
throne, and it is possible that this will
happen to the various provisions Of the
manifesto. But the manifesto is a law.
and no matter what spirit those m
power in Russia put into the intef@
probation of it, the essence of it must
reach and affect the people. -.
The provision relating to the kneut
will meet with the approval Of the
civilized world, though the approtsl
will be tempered by the regret that.
the instrument of torture was. net bans
ished altogether from army and navy,
life as it has been, from the life of the
rural classes. This brass-tipped
thong, q relic of barbarism, has long
served as the outward sign of RHssia's
savagery. Brandished aiofts by the
nihiiist, it had done more to arouse
the disaffected to acts of anarchy than
the reddest flag that was ever waved
1t is pity that Russia delayed its
banishment SO long. bat certainly she
is to be congratulated GA having ftlair
y awakened to realization OF its
anachronic Significance in nation
that pretends to latter day cisiliza-

MAKE FAIR RATES
All Roads Prepare for Big State
Fair Business

All railroads running into this city
nave completed arrangements for
handling business resulting from the
holding of the state fair next week.
Rates of one fare, plus so cents for the
round trip, from all points in this state.
and also as far west as Dickinson, N.
d.. on the Northern Pacific and CORE
spending points on other roads, have
been issued, and from the amount of
inquiry will probably draw a large at
tendance to what is generally known
as the best state fair in the world.
The plan of the companies and the
fair management in making the rail-
road transportation include the price
of one admission to the grounds worked
well last year, and will be generally in
force this season.
This insures a large attendance at
the fair, for even if a person does
not intend to take advantage of the
fact that he has an admission ticket,
he will nearly always go just to get his
moneys worth out of the ticket.
There will be only a few special
trains this year, as the regular sched-
ules of the roads will be able to care
for the traffic. All the roads will use
extra equipment however.

she is so fortunate as to time her ar
rival with one of those infrequent in
stances when the union depot loop line
happens to- be lin operation.
The proposal to abandon the solitary
street car. line that connects with the
union station in ST. Paul does not
threaten the comfort or convenience
of the out of town shopper. inasn1ich
as it has never contributed to any
great extent to either. The Twin City
Rapid Transit company tells the
truth when it says that the line has
not proved popular, and if the Twin

the city is apt to carry. and, possibly.
with a baby,~too, it would realize why
the line is not popular. Generally the
passenger must wait for the am
tiquated vehicle and if her courage
endures until it makes its appearance
she finds herself ineareerated in a
riekety car driven by motorman and
a CONDUCTOR who have received no in
structions to be either civil or intelli-
gent.
If st. Paul wants. to retain the pat
ronage of the out of town shopper, the
city must make some provision for
her comfort and must do it very soon.
With Minneapolis so near and greedy
for all the patronage it can pick up,
this town cannot afford to be content
with such transportation facilities as
are provided here in town for the
woman who comes up to the city to do
a days shopping. The Saints reputa-
ton for gallantry, SO far as the out of
town shopper is concerned, has already
suffered. -.

UNITED STATES OF EUROPE.
Frenchman Predicts Coalition to
Resist American Aggression.

A union of the majority of the ma
tons of Europe into a great federation
has been predicted by Anatole Leroy
BeauHeu, the French economist and
sociologist. in a lecture on 1.-The
United States of Europe" given under
the auspices Of the Alliance Franchise
in Chicago, says a dispatch from that
city.
In this union, which Professor Beau
lieu thought was sure to come about,
though possibly not in the twentieth
century, three nations, he said, would
not be acknowledgement, because 1t
would combine instead with the United
States; Russia, because 1t would form
a great independent nation by itself;
and Turkey, because it would be alb
sorbed by the coalition and lose Its
identity. The union would be neces-
sary, the speaker said, to resist Amer1-
can aggression and the yellow peril.
The lecturer said he had perceived
that this country has a tendency to
look upon continental Europe with the
same regard that children have for
superannuated parents, whose useful
ness has come to an end"
Europe" said Professor Beaulieu,
'1s in danger. The United States is
pressing hard upon the old countries in
all lines of activity, not merely COM
mercial, but artistic and scientific. If
this is not a sufficient cause, there Is
another in the far east. The progress
of japan will mean the awakening of
China. The United States makes light
