ICE BLOCKADE WILL
NEARLY BREAK RECORD
Navigation on Great Lakes Not Expected
to open Before May IS.

Officials of the st. PauI-Duluth lines are
beginning to anticipate that opening of
navigation on the great lakes will be later
this year than in any year on record. with
possibly one exception. when vessels did
not arrive at Duluth till in the early part
of June.
There is no telling when the ice block
ade will be broken" said ]. B. Baird,
general freight agent Of the Northern Pa
cific, yesterday From reports it ap-
pears that navigation will not open till
the middle of next month Lake Superior
is still covered with ice four feet thick
for a distance of sixty miles from the
shores, and Duluth harbOr is locked up
tight Even when the ice breaks near
the land navigation will be hazardous on
account of the huge ice cakes which float
about in the water.
The 500 is still locked and will not be
opened till some very warm weather
comes. The result Of this condition is
that the lake fleets are tied up and freight
is waiting to be hauled or is being di-
verted to all-rail routes
Boats reached Duluth last year as early
as April 10. but from reports it appears
certain that none Will arrive this year
till after May Is. Only one year has the
opening of navigation been later than it
is expected to be this year.
Shippers who had prepared to use the
lake and rail routes this spring are be
coming tired of waiting for the ice to
thaw and many are sending their freight
via all rail There is however, a large
quantity Of goods being held in ware
houses for the opening of lake naviga-
ton.

o. H. Olsen, who secured the con-
tract for the construction of SimOnet
Bros new business block on the site

ranged to begin work at once, and the
building will be ready for occupancy
by Aug. 1. A great deal of building is
to be done in Saltwater this season,
including several large new brick bus
mess blocks.
Messrs. Monaghan and Chalk, Of Du-
luth, government steamboat inspectors,
were at South Saltwater yesterday,
where they inspected the steamers Ga

will be commenced at once, and every
body will be asked to donate something
toward the structure.

weeks -
The important addition to the block
system was authorized by the officials of
the Omaha and Chicago & Northwest
ern last week, and the work of estab-
fishing the new stations will be pushed
Vigorously, as the company considers the
block system necessary on its Wisconsin
lines, over which the running time of
passenger and freight trains has recently
been greatly increased.
The Omaha already has the block sys-
TEN IN operation between st. Paul and
E1IFoy, and the extensions will be on the
INES running from North Wisconsin
junction to Duluth and to Ashland, and
from SpoOner to Eau Claire.
The addition of the new Duluth Chicago
limited Which will make fast time in
WISCONSIN, fast train from Ashland via
SpOOner, and increa sed freight traffic
have compelled the operating deDaFtmeut
OF the Omaha to run more trains, and in
order to insure safety the block system
was found to be necessary.
Instead Of placing the block stations
at the regular stopping places at villages
and towns along the lines to be covered.
the stations will be established midway
between each scheduled point said Mr.
Hope yesterday. This plan is an i'm
provement on that formerly followed. as
1t shOrtens the stops to be made by trains
that are held. Trains will be allowed to
go ahead from the stopping points, and
if necessary can be held at the block
stations till allowed to proceed. This
saves half the time ordinarily consumed
in stops and greatly facilitates the move
ment Of traffic.

proposed to substitute for that now in
power is not a government by the
churches but by the party which, at its
very latest opportunity, had fostered
civic shamelessness; the party guilty,
through all its period of official control,
in exaggerated measure, of every Of
Tense that it now charges against its
opponent; the party pledged and COM
mitted to restore exactly the conditions
that we have briefly summarized.
Is not this true? Since Mr.. Wright's
committee has raised the issue, let
him meet it like man. Will he state
publicly that, if elected, he will close
all the saloons on Sunday and keep
them closed? Will he promise to en-
force, with all the power of his office,
every law that he finds in existence?
Will he publicly promise that, if elect
ed, not a house or a room shall be
used, with knowledge of the police, for
public immortality, and no fines be
levied or collected? If not, wherein lies
the validity of this issue at this time,
to clergy or to laity?
We are inclined to think that the
greatest vice, the most shocking sin, in
all the world is hypocrisy. That.
whether the pulpit participants in the
campaign are conscious Of their part or
only dupes, is the essence of the Re-
publican campaign. There is not an
honest word in it, as those familiar
with our people and our past very we'll
know. Archbishop Ireland is a clergy
man and a great leader among re-
day politics? Dr. Smith is always in
terested and seldom silent when the
vital interests of the community are
involved. He is a Republican and has
spoken boldly many a time on public
issues. Has he used the stuff offered
by the Republican campaign commit
tee as material for a sermon? What
ever one may think of the folly OF
worse of those who have placed some
pulpits at the service of the most
INSCRIPTIONS element of a political
party, no one can question that the
party itself which has not hesitated at
that sacrilege ought to be beaten for
that Offense alone, even though 1t had
not behind 1t the evil record that If
owns.

A CONSPIRACY.

Warrants have been issued for the
arrest of six persons charged with
fraudulent registration at the recent
primary election. The persons named
in the warrants are not particularly
described. One of them is named P.
Johnson. There are forty-six P. John
sons in the city directory. The other
names are common-and by no means
enthusiastically Democratic. The
charges are brought by a man in the
employ of the Republican city commit
tee to do detective work. He was at
one time a member of the city detect
i've force, under Republican admins
tration. He was dismissed for the
good of the service on account of per-
sonal misconduct. The present charges
have been framed by this person for the
purpose of influencing public sentiment
against the Democrats, and there is
every reason for believing that a con-
spiracy has been entered into and that
1t is not to be presumed that any
person would procure the illegal regis
tration of another unless there was
some benefit to be derived from the
commission of the crime. A motive
must be found before a crime can we'll
be established. 1t is an undisputed
fact that there was no contention in the
Democratic party at the primary cleo
ton. Mayor Smith was unopposed for
the nomination. Mr.. Bremen had no
opposition within his party, nor did
Mr.. BetZ. There had been a contest
for the Democratic nomination for
alderman in the Fourth ward, where
the illegal registration is said to have
taken place, but one of the candidates
was admitted to be hopeIessly in the
minority and made no special effort.
There was no fight, such as would be
necessary to inspire the commission of
a crime against the election laws. This
entire absence of motive is the impor-
tant thing to consider in connection
with these charges. AS to the detail
of the development of the case, there
is plenty to color the theory that a po-
litical conspiracy has been attempted.
The warrants were issued yesterday
and the announcement that they had
been issued made at once through the
evening Republican organ. No attempt
was made to serve the warrants
probably no such attempt will be made.
The end was accomplished when the
necessary publicity was secured. The
private detective earned his fee when
the warrants were issued for these
men whose identity is about as well
fixed as though they had been desig-
mated John Doe or Richard Roe. The
legal fiction in this case goes something
farther than the obscure and indefinite
names bestowed upon these men, who
have not yet been secured, and who
have been admonished through the
medium Of the press to flee.
1t is the duty of the Democratic or
ganization to inquire very thoroughly
into this matter. It being very certain
that there was no possible motive for
Democrat to procure the commission
Of the crime charged, it must be as
sumed that, if these men were illegally
registered, they were melted to the
crime by those who would benefit
through a properly timed exposure.
The conspiracy is weak and rather
ineffective one, but it is the duty of the
authorities to go to the bottom of the

The Minneapolis Times is the last of
the Twin City newspapers, except those
which get their editorials in boiler plate
form from an Eastern think shop, to
lay aside the absurd double column or
column and a half measure on it's edi-
torial page. The Tribune lately, as we
mentioned, discarded the wide measure,
although it still doubles up the matter,
without any column rule between, to
make the reader think that long arti-
Gle is short. The Times goes back hon.
estly to the old and only rational way
of editorial display. We hope that the
fashion of bizarre editorial pages,
which originated in the journalistic
demi- monde, has now been discarded

changes made in the original company
which supported Maude Adams in her
presentation of THE Little Minister"
which will be revived at the Metropol-

Robert Edeson, now a star. The only
other change is that of c. Harrison
Hunter, first seen in this country with
Henry Irving and afterward as leading
man for Olga Nethersole. The part of
the French maid is still played by Miss
Margaret Gordon, who made so favor
able an impression during the original
run of the play.
Miss Viola Aliens company to sup
port her in her production of Twelfth
Night" to be presented at the Metro
polltan Thursday Friday and Saturday
evenings and Saturday matinee, was

and May Taverner will be the Olivia.
Among the male members of the com
pany are John Blair, Clarence Handy
