HEALY'S FRANCHISE.
DISCUSSED BY
COUNCIL
Aldermanic Board in Session
Both Morning and After
noon-Experts Present.

The city council was in session from
10 to IL this morning and again from
q o'clock on this afternoon, consider
ing the franchise which Edward L..
Healy of Red Lake Falls, Mimi, asks
and of which full report has hereto
fore appeared in these columns
There were present at the meeting,
besides the members of the aldermanic
board, Mr.. Healy, his attorney, T. Fl.
Bangs. his engineer, Mr.. Robertson.
and o. Claussen, of ST. Paul,-an ad-
visory engineer called in by Mayor
Duis to assist the council
The vital questions up for discus
sion were:
1. The control and regulation of
rates.
2. The maximum prices to be charg-
ed.
3. The gross earnings tax.
f. Control and extension of lines.
Tracy R. Banks stated brif1y what
Mr.. Healy intended Going in the event
of his being awarded the franchise.
Mr.. Clausen also spoke at length,
showing the council wherein the city
should be fe-guarded.
The original franchise proposed was
gone over section by section. En-
gineer Claussen was of the opinion
that the maximum rate to be charged
should not exceed 10 cents per kilo-
watt. Mr.. Robertson and Mr.. Bangs
for the petitioner insisted that this
maximum was inadequate.
At late hour the council was still
listening to tumble of figures. kilo-
watts, amperes, interest and deprecia-
ton, water power, horse power, can
die power, etc., ad infinitum. The al
dermen are finding plenty of food for
discussion in the consideration of the
proposed franchise.
Mr.. Healy on the question of price
proposes direct service charge to-
gether with a charge per kilowatt
hour.

vilest political sinner may return. In Georgia. however, he is expected to join the organized democracy. In Ala bama the voter in the coming primary pledges himself to support the nomi- nees of the primary in November. but he makes no pledge beyond November. In Georgia, he is pledged to stand by the organized democracy until Novem- Der, 1908. for he is sworn into the national democracy, and the national democracy does not act until that date in 1908 Congressional elections are not national elections, and the national democracy does not become active un- til 1908
 After all, the two plans are essen tially alike, but the Alabama plan has more tact and political fairness in it to the square inch than the Georgia plan. The liberality of the one stands in con trast with the organized tactics of the other

Gold Inflow and Business.

The New York banks sent $14,000, 900 to San Francisco last week, but they gained $3 ,000,0 GOO in government money eEd $9,000,000 in imported gold, and at the end of the week they showed q small gain in cash. These facts are significant in showing how the complex transactions of monetary affairs adjust themselves even in the days of disas- ter. Whether the San Francisco losses have been counted-whether liqui- dation has about run its course, 1t is certain the New York banks are talk ing steps to strengthen their reserves.
 Wall street is suffering more from over-speculation than from the Cali fornia disaster, and the country will be all the better and safer if the orgy of speculation gives place to conserya- tive trading. The declines in the prices of securities, averaging about ten per cent, may induce foreign buy ing, and this in turn will operate to maintain gold imports.
 On the face of trade returns Europe owes us 525 million dollars, but there are of course great reductions in freight money, tourists expenses, in surance. and the like to be made in the enormous aggregate But with the exception of 1901 and 1902 the balance of trade in our favor was never larger than it is in the present fiscal year. There is no reason apparently why the present inflow should not be carried to large figures, but no one can foresee what the limit will be. It may be heavy or it may be light; it may last weeks and weeks, and it may be ter minated in few days. It is so com plex 1t cannot be measured, analysed or even discounted. It shows, however, how strong the general position of the country is. and if 1t is maintained throughout May 1t will prove great factor in tiding the country over the shoals of undue speculation aggravated by catastrophe of large proportions.

The New San Francisco.

"A ccording to all accounts l have read of the earthouake in San Francisco said A. man who visited that city thirty years ago" it appears that the shock was felt along the coastline and did not extend across the harbor.
 'The city of San Francisco was built on A promontory which formed the southern side of Golden Gate. The harbor entrance is about a. mile wide and inside there is an immense harbor ten miles wide ana sixty miles long Facing the harbor en- trance Is the city of Oakland just ten miles across the harbor and there all trains have their depots except one The most natural place for the new city would be at Oakland and not alone rom the fact that it seems to be free from earth quake but also it would be safe from bombardment in case of a naval attack. The city of San Francisco could have been captured in an hour by vigorous attack of heavy guns as it is well known that the modern 12-inch gun will throw shell ten miles. Another thing that should be remembered is to lay off certain streets and avenues of considerable width which will act as barriers in case of future fires"

A honefuI Sign.

'The prospect that the streets of Dr. mingham will some day be free from ht- ter and trash are becoming brighter, said a business man. "rhe introduction of the trash bins on the street corners and the growing sense of propriety amongst the citizens all tend to accom- pIish the much desired result.
 "As an illustration of the improvement which has taken place In the last twelve months, I will contrast two cases that concerned myself. About year ago was standing on the steps of the post office when someone behind me threw banana peels out on the steps. looked around and saw a little boy about years old eating a banana l immediately con- erIded he had thrown the peels. l di- rected him to pick them up and throw them in the trash box and he was about to do SO when a lady, l presume ms mother came forward and forbade hlm' telling me to mind my own business. nes- terday I met a lady who had htte boy with her. The boy was carrying a paper sack and in answer to my hquiry what he had there he told mo he was looking for a trash box in which to put the sackful of banana peels.

Sidney Lanier.

As the years go on the country sees more clearly that Sydney Lanier was one of it's greatest singers. His fame rises with the passing years, and read CTS now seek his pages in all Anglo Saxon countries. His gifts of song and his brave, bright spirit attuned to the beauties of nature are even more high ly appreciated in England today than they are in his own country. He is one of the immortals, and a generation hence promises to link his name with that of Shelley and Keats.
 From Harry Stilwell Edwards, an other of Georgias charming writers, comes the suggestion that the most appropriate tribute that the south could pay would be to change the name of our fute-throated mocking-bird and call him a lanier. The bird is strictly southern. He never seeks northern chimes, and the consent of other states is not needed. No constitutional amendment forbids, and none is wanted to promote the proposition.
 Tt is," says the Atlanta Georgian,
 "a unique suggestion, and one which
 is destined to receive serious attention throughout the south. It would indeed 1 be fitting tribute to the man who above all others came nearest to pos
 sessing the varied gift of song, the del | icate sweetness of this most marvellous | of all birds. There can be no possi- | bility that in the years to come any southern singer win arise whose gifts, | however great, will so nearly core. spond to those of the mocking bird D This tribute to Lanier is wholly within the power of the southern peo- ple. and if our schools would adopt it and give it effect in their rooms it would soon come into general use.

lions. have them produce tbeir books. see from what corporations they received con- tributions and promptly proceed forth with to indict the officers of these cor porations. That would mean the indict- ment of a large portion of the financial officers of every large financial institu- ton in New York"
 This is the first time that numbers or social standing has been officially declared an obstacle to an official and mueh.needed investigation. MT. Je. rome not only refused to aid the grand jury to investigate campaign subscrip- tions, but he advised them to let the subject alone until he got decisions that suited him.
 Judge Greenbaum of the supreme court, sitting in New York city, had ruled that If a trustee of a corpora tion, especially life insurance com pany, contributed it's funds to politi- cal party, that constituted larceny" MT. Jerome holds that the number and high standing of the larceners stays the decision, rendering it for the time nugatory and inefficient. For holding thus Recorder Golf scored the district attorney severely, telling him it was his duty to have submitted the eYi- dence to the grand jury.
 It is plain that an investigation of the proper sort need not be expected at the hands of District Attorney Je- rome. The wonder is that judge was found in New York who was not afraid of the combine of campaign contrib utors. The power on this earth that can be trusted to unearth the cam paign of 1896 1900 and 1904 is a dem ocratic House of Representative in the Sixtieth Congress. No statutes of linn itations runs against an investigation, and no combination of financial insti tutions could or would stay an inyesti- gation by a democratic House.

Railways in Chilli.

''One, of the crying needs of Chile" writes United States Special Agent Hutch inson, lis for better transportation facili- ties, and there Is a growing recognition of the fact Recent experience seems to indicate that there are serious ob- stacles standing in the way of American construction of new government lines, so that the gaining of foothold thus d- rectly may be out of the question. but there are many openings for the building of private or semi-private lines for which the government concessions could prob- ably be obtained. The demonstration of superior excellence of construction and operation on these lines would be a val uable object lesson, and would greatly in- crease American chances in government construction as well. This is particularly true of electric roads. There is intense dissatisfaction expressed in all quarters at the present equipment and manage ment of the state railways, and the con strpction and operation of few first class lines would do much to pave the way for a larger sale of materials"
