DEPLORES TARIFF
AGAINST CANADA
P. j. SmaIIey Says the Policy
Is a Survival of Racial
Anlmosity.

Why should we continue like Aaron
and Moses, a-bitin' off our noses?'
+. j. Smalley asked this question last
night in reference to Canada and the
United States during an address upon
Our Relations With Canada" delivered
in the parlors of the Peoples church. Mr.
Smalley appeared at an open meeting of
the Goodfellowship club, a group of young
men associated for social relaxation and
intellectual improvement"
1T Is the tariff, aad nothing but the
tariff, insisted Mr.. Smalley: that separ-
ates Americans from Canadians. Their in
situations are essentially the same, except
that the Canadians are a little freer
than we are, and in some respects better
governed. The two peoples live under the
same natural. conditions boast the same
ancestors, are free from racial animosi-
ties. Only the tariff, that invention of
Tarifa pirates, still fortifies the frontiers
with custom houses as a survival of the
historic ennity which every nation for
merly entertained for every other ma
ton.
Yet there is no gain in the tariff save
to the revenues of the two countries. It's
a tax that leaves untouched that great
mass of property for the protection of
which governments were constituted.
What, then, should our relations be-?
Why should we not cultivate the good
will of the Canadians? In the matter of
boundaries for example, why should we
twist and turn the language of old treaties
to keep our neghbors from the scar Why

CITY NEWS
WILL ASK FOR BIDS
Plans for Twin City Building at
St. Louis Are Ready.

Bids on the new building in which the
Twin City exhibit is to be shown at the
st. Louis exposition will be asked for in
st. Louis within the next few days.
City Comptroller BetZ, Of st. Paul, and
Aid. G. B. Holmes, Of Minneapolis, mem
bers of the committee which has charge
of the exhibit, have gone to st. Louis,
where they will consult with Mr.. Kelsey,
of Philadelphia, the architect, who was
selected to draw up the plans for the
building. Mr.. Kelsey's plans were ap-
proved by a member of the committee.
The specifications call for a structure
of Grecian style of architecture, one story
in height, with an eighty-foot frontage
and a depth of sixty feet. The interior
of the building consists of a large lobby
with the st. Paul and Minneapolis rooms
opening off from the right and left respec-
lively.
These two rooms are each 2415x26 feet
In the Minneapolis room will be shown
q model of the milling industry, and in
the ST. Paul room a model Of the bath
system of this city. In the lobby are to
be models of the state university and the
new capitol building.
The probability is that the entire cost
of the building and it's contents will come
within the $4,000 appropriated for the
exhibit, and there is a slight possibility
that the building will not be completed
until after May l. the date set for the
opening of the exposition.

board no better off than before
The remarks of Mr.. Doran were call
ed forth by suggestions made by N. P.
Langford, of the board of control, who
asked the commission to consider the
question of allowing the boards to re-
tain their unexpended balances.
Water Board Suggestions.
Three suggestions were made by the
board OF water commissioners to the
charter commission last night. The
board asks that the city be required
to pay a reasonable charge for water
used for street sprinkling and cleaning;
that the city pay a hydrant rental for
each hydrant of an amount large
enough to aggregate the sum necessary
to conduct the department; and that
if it was found inadviSable or impoS-
sible to allow these changes, it was
required that the city issue bonds for
improvements and extensions from
time to time as necessity arises. The
board will be required to spend about
Sos, 900 for extensions of the mains in
the city, and believes that good buSi-
ness Judgment would authorize the ex-
penditure of about 100000 in increas-
ing the water supply out of the city.
The board calls attention to the
fact that there are forty-four Office

that do not pay one cent towards the
running expenses of the water de-
partment. These buildings are sup
piled with water by means of artesian
wells and therefore the burden of af-
fording them proper fire protection
falls upon the other consumers.
The suggestions of the water board
was referred. to a committee of three,
composed of Commissioners Ives,
Michael and Bloomquist.
Change in Assessments.
The commission last night appointed
a committee composed of Commits
sioners Michael, Sanborn, Armstrong,
Catlin and Cannon, to consider and
determine upon changes in the present
system of levying- assessments for pub
lie works. The revision Of the chapter
on taxation, inconsistencies in which
were pointed out by Mr.. Zollman, was
entrusted to a committee composed of
Commissioners Zollman, Michael and
McNair. The committee having charge
of the application of the fire depart
ment requested another week in which
to consult with the officials of that
department before submitting report.

headed by Attorney F. L. McGhee, ap-
peared to ask for better fire protection
for that section of the city, but as the
committee did not report the delega-
ton will appear at the next meeting.
Chairman Markham said the COM
mission was making satisfactory prog
ress, and said that by hard work it
would be possible to have the amend
ments ready to submit to the public
at the spring election.

WILL MAKE MORE
Irvine At PRISON
Production of Boots and Shoes
at Penitentiary to Be
Reduced.

"The more we expand the manufac-
ture OF binder Irvine, and reduce the
production of boots and shoes at the
prison, the less will be the competition
with the industries of our own state"
In this statement, made to L n e
Clio b e yesterday by Gov. Van SAINT,
is proclaimed a plan which is already
well developed. The state will, as rap
idly as possible, transfer the labor Of
its prisoners at the penitentiary from
the shoe factory to the Irvine plant. In
fact this idea has already been carried
into effect to some extent, as is shown
in the announcement that the output
of the prison Irvine factory for the cur
rent year will be nearly 100000
pounds, as compared with 100000
pounds last year.
With no previously expressed 1nten-
ton on the part of the state officers to
curtail the manufacture of shoes by
prison labor, the Irvine plant has been
gradually expanded far beyond the or
igtnal conception of its possibilities.
The conditions were peculiarly favora-
BILE to its development. The class of
work which it provided was suitable to
the purpose Of giving employment to
the prisoners. Warden Wolfer from
the beginning took a deep interest in
the operation Of the Irvine plant, and
has so operated it as to pay the state
big revenue, besides furnishing the
farmers with good quality of twine at
prices below the market
Within the past few days Warden
Wolfer and the members of the state
board of control and the governor have
spent great deal of time in conference
and it is well understood that the sub
ject Of their deliberations was the pris-
on twine plant. At the close of long
session yesterday afternoon the gov
ernor made the statement quoted
above, and discussing the subject fur
Their, he said:
No Competition in, Irvine.
eYou know our Irvine business does
not compete in any way with any of
our state industries, but in the past
there has been some complaint about
the manufacture of shoes. at the prison,
for that does offer some competition to
our Minnesota manufacturers. There
fore the more we incline to the manu-
facture of Irvine and get away from the
shoe business the less cause for COM
plant there will be.
that our farmers need by any means
but the product of our factory will be
larger this year than ever before and
am greatly pleased that 1t will be So
The change offers many advantages
to the state that are readily recogniza-
bic. In the manufacture Of Irvine the
profit goes to the state direct, but In
the shoe factory. the business has al
ways been carried on by contract with
some firm and a price far below the
rate paid for outside labor has been
paid for the services of the prisoners.
The operation of the factory in this
manner has necessarily involved the
employment of a number Of citizens
which in some measure, at least, has
been prejudiciaf1tasthe best disciplin-
airy interests of the institution.
The Irvine plant is operated almost
entirely with prison labor and is under
the direct supervision of the officers OF
the prison.

1.-THE criticism by Public Examiner
Johnson of the boards of the city
brings up the question as to whether
the provisions of the charter are to be
strictly construed or not" said N. P.
Langford before the charter commits
sion last night. 1T is doubtful wheth-
er it is proper to strictly prohibit the
boards from patronizing merchants or
other business men who are directly
or indirectly connected with the city
government. It is certain that it is
almost impossible for many of the rep
resentative business men of the city
to hold positions of trust, and many of
them who are members of boards re-
ceive no salary. The law provides that
the contracts are to be let to the low
est bidder, and If the bidder happens
to be connected with the city govern
ment in some other department, no loss
Is sustained.
"On the other hand, a merchant
serving on a public board without COM
pensation is cut off from part Of the
business which he would otherwise
have the benefit of. The restriction
placed upon the boards also puts them
frequently at a disadvantage
Wants Thirty More Policemen.
The police department in a petition
last night presented to the charter
commission, asks for twenty-five to
thirty additional patrolmen, ten more
mounted men, a station in the West
Seventh street district and a lookup
at Como park. The petition was ac-
companied by an exhaustive report,
giving in detail the organization of the
force, and pointing sout the lack of
men in specified portions Of the city.
A table showing the pay received by
policemen in other cities the size of
st. Paul was also submitted.
The present annual appropriation of
$lS5, 600, 1T was pointed out, is the
same as was received in 1887, when the
population of the city was but two
thirds as large as it is at this time.
The board leaves to the commission to
decide the increase necessary to meet
the demands of the department A
committee, composed of Commission
ers Armstrong, Webster and Won der
Weyer, will consult with the depart
ment officials and consider the reasons
urged for larger appropriation.

The relief bin makes an appropria-
ton of $25O,O0O, to be dealt out by the

not the state has sufficient funds at

urer Vandiver said that he could not
tell as so much of the states money is
now tied up in so many of the banks
which have been burned.
