Fairmont Sentinel: The Mankato
Review, the leading Democratic paper
of the Second district, comes out for
Congressman Hammond for governor,
taking it for granted that Ex-Gover-
nor Lind meant what he said in his
recent letter addressed to Chairman
Day, in which he declared that he
could not accept the nomination. The
Review is right in all it says regard
ing Mr.. Hammond's ability, fitness
and popularity, but the people of the
Second district who have twice elected
him to congress, do not like the idea
of losing his services at Washington
in their behalf.

Cities Learning a Lesson.

When Mayor Seidel, the Socialist
executive of Milwaukee, went to Chi
cago for health commissioners, a i'd
picked man who was a common or
garden variety of Republican at that
instead of Socialist, there was criti-
cism.
But Seidel said that what he was
after was the best health commissioners
he could get, and he didn't care cent
whether he was from Milwaukee or
Kalamazoo, and he cared even less
whether he was Socialist, a Republi-
can, Populist or a Prohibitionist.
That rather astonishing action on
Seidel's part was just plain common
sense, the same kind of common sense
that has made it possible for Germany
to boast Of having the best system Of
city government in the world, and it is
a very encouraging sign to see that
American cities are taking a cue from
Germany's success, even if it took a
OOclallsG 10 pOlnG Lne way.
That credit, however, can hardly be
claimed for Seidel, for other cities
have done the same thing before.
Duluth did it, for instance, when, in
stead of turning the job of managing
it's gas and water works over to some
local citizen who needed a job, it got
an expert from Detroit who still is
running the city water and light
plants.
Not long ago, too, New York hap
pened to need a first deputy water
commissioner. Of course there were
plenty of local applicants, and no
doubt plenty of them who could fill
the place satisfactorily after they had
been educated by experience. The
city couldn't afford to pay a water
commissioner while he was being edu-
Gated, however, and so it sent to
Cleveland aud got Edward W. Bemis,
who had served the city of Cleveland
and had shown his capacity for hand
ling city water plants.
Later Chicago sent to New York for
a uperintendent of streets, getting a
man who had had experience and had
proved his fitness, greatly to the dis
gust of Chicago ofice-seekers.
Milwaukee, Chicago, Duluth and
New York merely did, in these cases,
exactly what private corporation
would do. A private corporation
doesn't pick it's expert employees
because they are Republicans or
Democrats, because they have pull
with a director, or because they are
local citizens who would be thankful
for fat jobs. It picks them because
they ale fit for the places they are
called to fill, and that is the only
business-like way to pick them.
In the old days fitness was almost
the last reason ever considered in
choosing city officials. Of course the
city attorney had to be lawyer, and
the health commissioner usually was
a doctor; but beyond that there were
no particular requirements except
that the men chosen must be party
adherents and satisfactorily active
party workers. Naturally, in these
this country evolved the
worst system of city government in
the world. Naturally, too, the reac-
ton from that condition is injecting a
little plain business sense into methods
of selecting expert public employees.
There will be efficient city govern
ment when city government is recog-
nized as plain business, and not
before. Herald.

A BAD CASE
Married sigeI Farmer Arrested
For serios Offence. Bound
Over TO District Court
by City Justice.

A conspicuous case of human de-
pravity and degeneracy was brought
to light when Alex Flor, farmer in
Sigel Twp. was arraigned before city
justice N. Henningsen last Friday
afternoon. The charges were made
by Miss Anna Helget who maintained
that on the 10Th day of June 1910 at
the town of Sigel she gave birth to
bastard child, mentioning Alex Flor
as the father of said child. From the
testimony produced in court it APP
peared that Miss Helget was domes-
tic in the Flor family and that during
the past year Alex Flor entertained
an illegal relation between himself
and Miss Helget. When the delicate
condition of the unfortunate girl
became known she was discharged
from her services. On June 10th she
secretely returned to Flor farm and
gave birth to child. The defendant
was arrested and before Justice Hen
ningsen admitted the charge. Accord
ing to the testimony he was found
guilty and ordered to be held to
answer the charges at the next general
term of the District Court, his bond
being fixed at $500, subject to the APP
proval Of the district judge. Alex
Flor was placed in the county jail
Friday evening where he was held
until Judge Olsen had approved the
defendants sureties.

NEW MONORAI IS WRECKED
sUPERsTRucTURE GIVES WAY ON
SHARP CURVE.
Coach Falls over; Passengers Pin
Toned In Cigar-Shaped
Ends.

New York, July 1S.-The first SEIZED.
uled trip of the new memorial car ply
| ing between Barlow on the Sound and
City Island, came to a disastrous end.
Twenty or more persons were injured,
some seriously, when the superstruc-
ture at the stop and bottom, which
forms track for the car, gave way on
sharp curve near Glovers Rock, mid
way between Barlow and City Island.
Howard Tunis, the inventor, sustained
a broken rib and one passenger a
broken leg.
The car was whzzing along at the
rate of Is miles an hour and was ap-
parently working smoothly as it ap-
preached Glovers Rock. Suddenly there
was terrible jolt, then sound of
tearing and splintering overhead.
Pinioned in Car Ends.
The car stopped toppled for an
instant and then fell over on it's side.
The forty-seven passengers were flung
among the debris at the bottom of the
car and some of them We're pinioned in
the cigar-shaped ends of the long thin
memorial. There. were more than ten
women in the car at the time of the
accident. That some of them were not
killed in the whirling is nothing short
of miracle.
The marvellous escape from death of
the passengers is better understood
when it is explained that the heavy
seats on the upper side of the car were
wrenched loose and thrashed around
among the PROSTATE passengers.
Showers of broken glass from the win
dows bombarded the helpless men and
women and inflicted terrible flesh
wounds.
The passengers had been laughing
and joking few minutes before at
the prospect of real rapid transit be-
tween their homes and the Pelham
station of the New Haven railroad in
place of the antiquated horse car line.
Just how many were seriously in
jured could not be learned because
many of the wounded had been taken
away by friends in conveyances which
came from nearby stables and from
City Island.
1t is believed that the superstructure
was not strong enough to stand the
pressure put upon it when the car flew
around the curve.
