The men and women who erected
the barricades around which so much
blood flowed during the recent riots
in Lodz, Russia, we're following time

cade is the first thing which an other

when it means to fight authority.
History has been made at barricades.

tracted the Sunday habit will be
glad to hear the good news told and

At a meeting of business men in
the Commercial club rooms last
Thursday, Messrs. Matthews, Cook,
Chase, Snyder and Forbes were
asked to tell the whole truth about
the effect of the Sunday meetings
on the business and upon the
churches of Marshall. All of these
gentlemen are engaged in business
or professional pursuits at Mar
shall and there was no conflict in
their testimony that Marshall was
more than hundred per cent the
better church town, in point of at
tendance and meeting all financial
obligations, and that 1904 bad been
one of the best years for trade that
city had experienced. Although
Marshall had broken all records in
subscribing generously to pay
Evangelist Sunday for his work,
the people who complained about it
were invariably those who had new

Opium chewing by women has
become quite an evil. Yesterday
we noticed lady, a member of a
respectable family, with unsteady
gait and vacant expression in her
face making her way to a drug
store for her daily supply of the
baneful drug. This is but one in
stance of numerous cases through
out the city. The sale of such
drugs should be regulated by law.
~
Some effort should be made to fill
our quota before the draft is en-
forced. A draft would disorganize
the industry of the city for months.
Establishments will lose their best
hands. Business men will be
forced into service, and in a short
time allowed to report for duty
must close up their their business,
sacrifice their stocks. etc. Then,
too, the families of perhaps three
fourths of the men drafted will have
to be provided for. If money for
new recruits can be raised in no
other way, let the city sell or mort
gage its market house properly

ton, $19,0O0.000 worth of cotton,

issued calls for volunteers and

volunteering to the numberof l, $780,
900 men, making a total of nearly
5000, 900 men raised since the war
began for the purpose of putting
down the mightiest rebellion in
history. How little this was fore
seen is shown by the words of
President Lincoln in 1861, when he
said: Read the riot act and call

The Minnesota Central railroad
is now graded from this city to four
miles below Faribault. Iron for
the tracks is now lying at Lacrosse
and will be here as soon as naviga-
tion opens in the spring. The low
water of the present year prevented
its arrival before this. The COM
pany expects to have cars running
to Faribault by July, and by fall
the junction with the Winona & St.
Peter road near Owatonna will be
reached.
Six miles of the Lake Superior &
Mississippi road between St. Paul
and White Bear lake have been
graded, and during this winter
some of the heavy work is being
prosecuted. Gates A. Johnson, en-
gineer of the road, has run a trial
line to the lake, and found a light
grade nearly all the way.
While other roads are progress
ing finely, we can boast of one, the
St. Paul & Pacific, which is already
10 running order. Track is already
laid to Elk River and grading has
been completed to st. Cloud. Cars
will be running to the latter place
next year.
All the railroads running out of
ST. Paul have valuable land grants
from Congress, which renders their
completion certain, and insures the
brilliant future of St. Paul, which
thus becomes a great railroad CEN
ter as well as the head of naviga-
tion.
Whether it is cheaper in the end
to raise men by paying local boun-
ties, rather than allow a draft, is
question much discussed, and good
arguments are deduced on both
sides, but we are inclined to believe

 New Orleans, March 20.--An elabo- rate report by President Simon Wolf was the feature of the second days session of the constitutional grand lodge, B'Nai B'Rlth. It presented an interesting array of statistics and facts bearing upon the conditions and his- tory of the Jews in America. He said that during the past four years 4,000.- 900 foreigners have come to this coun- try, at ltAst ore-tenth being Jews and 80 per cent of whom remained in New York. The remarkable influx. he said, was due to oppression abroad. Dr. Wolf said the convention ought to stimulate by wo-d or deed the niove- ment of the proper distribution of this foreign Jewish immigration.
 Dr. Wolf said the order of B'Nai B'Rith had altogether contributed. ex- elusive of endowments. $1o,ooQ.ooo to various benefactions. It has q ment- bership of 30.o00 throughout the world. has educated more than 10000 orph- ans, cared for more than 500 aged and infirm and 5000 sick and destitute and has maintained free circulating iibra- ries of more than 5o.O00 volumes
 The only mater outside Of the re- port was the appointment of commit tees and the reference of number ot resolutions. including the abolition of ritual and of secrecy and the changing of the name to the supreme lodge. In the afternoon a visit was paid Co the Jewish orphans home, the Newmaa manual training scbool and the Touro Inflrmary, many speeches being made upon Southern JsSSesh philanthropny. Tonight there was a reception of the delegates and their ladies by the Har- mony Club.
