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 corre-
spending points on other roads. have
been issued, and from the amount of
inquiry will probably draw 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 large attendance at
the fair, for even if 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.

A FUND. FOR THE HOUSE OF THE
GOOD SHEPHERD

Means should be provided at once to
lift the burden that has been imposed
upon the willing shoulders Of the sis
ters of the House of the Good Shep-
herd. The people of st. Paul who know
the good work that is carried on so
unobtrusWely by this charity will not
have to be asked twice to come to the
rescue of the good sisters whose work
was crippled by the disaster of last
Saturday. The GIob feels it duty
to supplement the efforts of the gen
tlemen who have taken upon them
selves the work ofsraising funds to en-
able the sisters to put their house in
repair and asks its friends and readers
to contribute to a fund which is this
morning opened for this purpose.
The committee, Of which Mr.. H. c..
McNair is chairman, has. called a meet
ing for Friday evening. At that time
means will be devised for putting the
appeal in behalf of the House of the
Good Shepherd formally before the
public. Pending the action of the COM
mittee and this meeting there is i'm
mediate need for putting the relief
measures into effect "'T he Glob e
believes that many people and firms are
simply awaiting the call to contribute
to the support of this most worthy
charity and to these it offers an op-
portunity of contributing at once.

subscription list with a donation of
$1eO. Subscriptions to this fund re-
mitted to The GIL be or to Mr.. H. c.

The Japanese government evidently

WAIT FOR THE THREsHER

The wheat market has ceased abso-
lutely to a furnish any criterion from
which rational man could judge of
the condition of the Northwestern
wheat crop. Just as, before the whole
truth became known, 1t remained in
possession of those Who were taking
advantage of it to keep the price Of
wheat below what the farmer should
receive and what every condition war
ranted, SO is it now the prey of every
rumor that can be used to boost the
figures to unheard- of heights.
The rust scare has been worked for
all it is worth. Unhappily, it has ma
terialized only too fully. Within three
weeks it has done injury that can be
measured only by millions of bushels
Nevertheless it has caused no general
crop failure, and its ravages have not
been universal Only the actual
threshing. of the wheat can. disclose
what fields suffered and what escaped.
And now the frost threat has taken its
place. Every severe storm such as
that of last Saturday is followed, in
this latitude, by a great fall in temper
ature. This has come, and in limited
areas it has brought light frosts, but
thus far without any damage tot the
crop. But the market manipufatofs
are using that, too, for all that it is,
worth to stimulate sagging prices,
The truth is that the market, just
now, does not reflect the conditions Of
the fields in any sense faithfully.
Those conditions are known only in a
limited and general way. We know
that the crop has been damaged and
the wheat yield of the Northwest cut
down, but by just how much no hu
man being can even approximate. We
know that there is very considera-
BILE portion of the crop that is still la
BILE to further injury from frost, but
there is nothing whatever to justify
the supposition that this will come.
The unreasonable bobbing up and.
down of the market price is strictly
speculative Wheat will be high for
the next year. That is about all that
we can say for certain.

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 in 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, inasn1,ich
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
City Rapid Transit company should
happen into the city early some morn
ing, laden with such bundles as a
woman who plans to spend the day III
the city is apt to carry. and, possibly,
with baby,1too, it would realize why
the line is not popular. Generally the
passenger must wait for the an
tiquated vehicle. and if her courage
endures until it makes its appearance
she finds herself incarcerated in a
rickety 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.

proper step of canceling its work and
withdrawing all suggested changes for
another year at least.
The 4ists' Of amendments approved
contemplated the expenditure of very
considerable amount of money in ad-
dition to our present annual require
! ments. We will need all that and
more, for present purposes. The tax
rate will have to go up. next year. by
reason of the, ,aravages of the storm.
Our people will bear. that with pa

admirable intelligence and spirit that

THE PASSING OF THE kNouTs

: d
Already the little child that has
come to the czar and czarina of Rus
sia 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 indifferentiy7
translated by imperial officers not in
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 IN
power in Russia put into the inter-
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 not bans,
ished altogether from army and navy
life as it has been from the life of the
rural classes. This brass-tipped
thong. relic of barbarism, has long
served as the outward sign of RHssia's
savagery. Brandished aioftF by the.
nihilist, it had done more to arouse
the disaffected to acts of anarchy than
the reddest flag that was ever waved

banishment SO long. bat certainly she
is to be congratulated on having fslat<
