'•Have the police the right to stop or Interfere with the transportation of the United States mails?" asks a corre spondent with a show of indignation that a policeman should have halted the iriver of a mail wagon who was driving his team down Third street at a break neck speed the other day. The police authorities have not the right to stop or interfere with the transportation of the United States mails, but they have the right to make the mail carriers observe the municipal ordinances, who, if they fail to do so, are just as liable to arrest and punishment as any other class of .itizens. A United States soldier is as much liable to arrest for drunkenness _>r disorderly conduct on the street as a zitizen would be. The fact that a man wears the uniform of the United States or is in the service of the federal government does not ex empt him from the penalties of the civil law. A municipal gov ernment has the right to prescribe that railroad trains shall not run at a dan gerous rate of speed within the corpora tion limits. The fact that a railroad train is carrying the United States mail does not exempt it from the provisions of the municipal law, And so if a wagon is carrying the mail from the postoffice to the depot, it must be driven through the streets in exact accordance with the provisions of the munici pal ordinance relating to driving in the streets. It is no excuse to say that the mail wagon is late and it is nec essary to drive fast in order to reach the tram. It is the duty of the postmaster to have the mail made up in ample time to reach the outgoing trains without violating the city ordinances. Uncle Sam is a pretty bg man and a very nice old fellow, but when he comes to St. Paul he has to conduct himself accord ing to the regulations laid down for the government of St. Paul people. FREEDOM'S JUBILEE. The last week has been one of royal pageantry in England. The celebration of the queen's jubilee has been an occa sion of gorgeous magnificence. But it is an event the like of which will never be witnessed again. Taking, the pro gress of Democratic sentiment in Eng land within the last fifty. years as a basis it is safe to predict that fifty years from now there will be no British mon archy in existence. When. Queen Vic toria ascended the British throne a half a century ago British subjects still* clung to the superstition relating to the divine right of kings. But that has all passed away. Of the millions who participated in the royal demonstration last week not one believed in the super stition which has held the European na tions in bondage for so many centuries. To-day Victoria is only a queen in name and by sufferance. She dare not assert that her crown is hedged about with divinity, lest the very ex pression should cause a mutiny among her subjects. It is beause that public sentiment is of a slower growth in England than in France that Victoria's jewels like Eugene's have not long ago orna mented some pawnbroker's shop. But is because that democratic sentimentit has been of slower growth |in England that is all the more enduring. It is tak ing deeper root than in France, -and when it once reaches that point that nothing short of a government for the people and by the people will satisfy the British population, republicanism ' will be established on an everlasting . foundation. The idea of local self gov ernment is taking possession of all the nations of the earth and it continues to grow as the world moves. The demon strations of the last week only indicate that when the revolution to be accom plished by the masses against the classes in England does come, it will be a peaceable one. It will not be brought about by dynamite, but will come as the result of increasing intelligence among the English people. There will be a pa rade and something of a hurrah when the Prince of Wales is crowned, but the next genuine demonstration to compare with that of last week, will be freedom's great jubilee when Great Britain passes out from under monarchical rule and be comes a confederation of free siates. «*> NOTHING TO FEAR. Nervous people who have been appre hensive that the recent collapse of . the wheat gamblers and the consequent failures of firms and banks that were involved would result in a general finan cial panic, will find a nervine in the as surance given by Secretary Fairchild that he has an eye on the situation and a hand on the treasury vaults ready to unlock the doors whenever the necessity may require it. - At a moment's notice the secretary of the treasury can un loose $30,000,000, which will . be . a suffi cient amount -to". form ; a breakwater against any jobs; that the Wall street gamblers can set up. There is no panic imminent, for there is nothing that can produce one. The failure of a few banks and business firms who have been' dab bling in wheat deals will not affect .the general monetary condition of the coun try. Our national finances are on too sound a basis to admit i of panics. The' days when gamblers could corner the money market are gone by. '' ■ - 1 ■ I COLLAPSE OF BLUE LAWS. The New York blue laws have col lapsed, or practically so. The entering wedge has been made, and it is . only now a question of time when New York will experience a return to the "wide open" method of things. The court of appeals has reversed the decision of tile supreme court and has declared that ho tel and eating house keepers may sell liquor to their guests with meals. ~ ; The possibilities this admission pre- . sents to would-be evaders of the Sunday law are obvious. That the decis ion is better than . a gold mine to the hotel, keepers is equally evident. It is only necessary for for those who are vinously or spiritu ously Inclined to order a few sandwiches in a hotel private dining room to. obtain the privilege of securing at the same" time as much liquid refreshment as they may desire. It will be the old Fal staflian story of a pennyworth of blood and a huge quantity, of sack, but it will bean arrangement not with out ail vantage. Though the amount of drinking will undoubtedly great, it will be done in" privacy, and the argus eye of the law and its blue coated min ions can hardly penetrate within the walls, much less beneath the seclusion of the dining, table's friendly shelter. *It may be that the law will be called upon to define the exact meaning of the "meals" with which liquor.may be had, but it is quite likely that almost any ho tel or eating-house keeper can furnish a poor enough meal to come within the limits of any purse and yet be good enough to have standing in law. Board ing-house keepers in other cities besides New York have solved that problem long ago. Then, too, what is to prevent the drinker from having a concealed recep tacle beneath his clothes, into which he can pour a gallon or two of liquor, to be drank afterwards at his leisure, while he is munching his sandwich.- To an ingenious man the construction of the law opens up numerous possibilities, and as there are many ingenius men in New York we expect to see Sunday drinking carried on in that city to as great an extent as ever. «P '7 "7- : A POLITICAL BLIND. There is an apparent tinge of insanity in the extraordinary zeal displayed by the Bepublican leaders ami organs in working the battle-flag episode. They have made it the occasion to unfurl the bloody shirt again, which they are waving with a vigor that would. do credit to a more creditable cause. And yet there is a method in this madness. The Bepublican leaders have a purpose to accomplish by all this clamor they are raising over this order of the presi dent's concerning the battle flags. Mr. Sherman struck the key note of the Bepublican campaign when he said the next national contest was to be fought on the tariff issue. Mr. Sherman was correct in his statement, but the alac rity the Democrats exhibited in joining issue with the Bepublic ans on the tariff alarmed the Be- i publican leaders. They soon dis covered that the cause of protection which is to be (.spoused by the Bepubli cans is not popular with the masses of the people. They have not abandoned tlie cause but they recognize the im portance of keeping* it in the back ground until the. presidential election is over. They find it absolutely neces sary to have some other issue in the; front in order to conceal the Bepub lican protective policy as much as possi ble. Nothing else being in sight they have in the extremity of desperation re sorted to the bloody shirt. They hope : to. use the ensanguined; garment as a blind to cover protection in the-expecta tion of keeping the Republicans in col umn until the presidential election is over. Then if they succeed •in electing their ticket and securing the triumph of protection they will laugh at . their" dupes. That is the meaning, of all this insane clamor about the battle-flags. - The people of the Western and North western states will be wise if they 100k 7 into the purposes of the Bepublican**lead ers before allowing themselves to be car ried away with any such cheap political clap-trap. The tariff is the issue now before the American people and it is going to be kept in sight until the elec tion is over. "•,-.';*•* 7 THE CO-OPERATIVE PLAN. The Louisiana sugar planters are tak ing steps to run their plantations on the co-operative plan. This is in the line of a suggestion the Globe recently made to the wheat growers of the Northwest. The Sugar Planters' Association of Louisiana have completed arrangements for the establishment of a central sugar . factory, to be under the absolute con trol and management of the planters. The object will be to make it a sugar exchange for the exclusive benefit of ; the su-iar planters. The. purpose in view is to weed out the commission and middle men and to keep the sugar trade in the hands of the sugar producers. There is no reason why the wheat grow ers of the Northwest should not adopt the same plan. Co-operative wheat grow ing would be the salvation of Northwest ern farmers. An organization of wheat producers similar to that ( organized by the Louisiana planters would put an end to wheat gambling and all the per nicious results that follow from it. It would also result in eliminating the mid dle men from the field and in a saving to the farmers of the enormous commis sions now paid out. And then it will enable them, in a more effective way to regulate the matter of freights on a basis equitable to the farming interests. Every other industrial interest has. found protection by adopting the co operative plan, and there -is no reason j why the great agricultural industry should be an exception. -»»- We desire to call the attention of "Loosh" Fairchild and his excited colleagues to the fact that the Seventy first regiment of the Philadelphia brig ade . proposes to signalize its reunion with Pickett's division of Confederate forces at Gettysburg next month, by re turning to the survivors of the latter command, three flags captured from it.

You know the patriarchal-looking Dr* Mann, of course? Everybody knows him and everybody likes him, too, by the way. Well, I had an extiemely good story about the venerable doctor whispered into my ear the other day. It seeihs the doctor is remarkably fond of tapioca pudding and thereby hangs the tale, He sauntered into Biggs' drug store the other day where that experi enced professional druggist, Assignee" Lee is in charge, and observed low glass jar labeled "Tapioca" and filled jto the top with what appeared to be his favorite article of food, but which was really gum arabic. Now as anyone, knows gum arabic has adhesive and other qualities which hardly recom mend it as a desirable article of food. The doctor - observed the delicious ap pearing white fragments and a desire for tapioca pudding overcame him. "What delicious appearing tapioca," he exclaimed. Druggist Lee, alive ; to the interests of his newly assumed calling, of course declared there was none better in : the market. "Weigh me out two pounds," continued the ; doctor, "I'll have tapioca pudding for dinner," and so it was done. The supposed tapioca was placed in soak. It increased won derfully in bulk, but yet the doctor sus pected not. r It was placed over the fire and diligently boiled, ;'• Such . curious tapioca never was seen. • It insisted upon adhering to the sides of the vessel,* and its clinging tendencies became each : moment more marked. The experienced cook, however, succeeded in. extracting : j enough for. the pudding . finally and it was placed before - the doctor's glisten ing.eyes. His mouth fairly watered in; anticipation. He plunged into it vig orously, and -. in 7. a . moment :-a goodly portion of it had disap peared. Then a doubt, graduall y grow- : ing into a dread ' certainty, overcame ; him.

Our young friend, whose graces of person are only equaled by his charms of mind, had a sweetheart. Why I use the past tense will speedily appear, for also, unfortunate youth} he has a sweetheart no longer. Worn out through the exacting occupation of per-, suading confiding investors that the possession of sections of St. Paul dirt is more to be desired- than much gold and line silver, he concluded ', to take a vacation at a distant resort. He had hardly been installed in his new quar ters before he made the acquaintance of a most fascinating little widow.who had mourned once more: the dear departed long enough to take interest in attractive young men. Having. "many a time and oft" conquered the doubts of the' timid investor, the young estate man con quered the susceptible heart of the beautiful widow- in ' an-- exceedingly short . time, --but -before the . triumph * was- ; fully assured the lady in black was called away to a distant town. The lover was accorded permission to write, however, and speedily betook himself to the pleasant duty. .He. com pleted a most endearing letter. -Before placing it in an envelope remorse over came him that he had not written more frequently to his St. Paul - sweetheart. He immediately dashed off a letter even more ardent than that which he had just finished ; to the charming widow. Hastily directing the two, he mailed them and waited anxiously for the re plies. They came. The result "was rather astonishing, however, for from the St. Paul sweetheart he ; received a bundle of letters and all, his presents; from the widow a scathing epistle de nouncing him as a lickle wretch. He bad put the wrong letters in*, the wrong, envelopes. Now.instead of having two sweet hearts, he has me. Young men,, beware?* But you c.iii't guess his name. A prominent real estate man whis pered a novel scheme into my ear the other day which he says he and some" of his colleagues are considering, which is likely to create consternation in the ranks of St. Paul's 700 real estate agents, should it r be successfully ear ned out. The scheme is kept pretty quiet yet, and no doubt "its promoters will think the whispering of it, even in this confidential manner, rather prema ture, so '-for goodness* sake don't say T told you." Briefly, they argue in this wise: There are ' many legitimate real estate dealers in St. Paul, men who maintain expensive offices and . have heavy expenses in other directions, who guard their reputations jealously and who wouldn't for twice the commis sions misrepresent a ; piece of property to an irileuilfng; purchaser. But Uiere are. others who have neither a fixed abiding place nor a reputation. These latter, however, divide up the business and decrease the profits of the legitimate dealers, It is desired to make these free-lance deal ers retire from the business. But how is it . to be done? Easy enough, the regular dealers think; simply by the imposition of a heavy annual tax, say of $1,000, upon every firm or Individual doing business. Certainly, if the scheme c*i be carried out, it will raduee.tlie number of operators, but can it be dune? -The' -Whisperer doubts it. • it is whispered so loudly* in certain quarters that it is in danger of becom ing public property that my bright, handsome and accomplished young friend Sam; Hill, of Minneapolis,- has very in congressional 'a.<t'pfrS&iohi^ - Though the district is in the procession of tlie Democrats, aud is - likely to re main so for a good many years to come, yet if the time ever- does ' coine; again when the Republicans are to have the congressmen, 1 don't know any one in the ranks of our friends, tlie enemy," ' wh . feOttld so admirably: fill the position as Sam Him..

His reputation as a . lawyer is •an enviable one and his popularity is only limited by his acquaintance, while his graces of person may be imagined by the reputa tion he possesses of being the handsomest man in the Flour City. In the event of his candidacy he would only have to dis tribute cabinet photographs .of himself among the- ' women. of his district in order - to insure their enthusiastic and immediate support, and every one knows that the support of the women is half the battle.

How a Union Regiment Solves the Flag Question. - Baltimore Sun. Despite the racket created by the polit ical workers in Grand Army circles over the. proposition :,to..' return to | the, I various Southern states the captured* Confederate flags,' with; true soldierly sentiment the Seventy-first regiment of the Philadelphia brigade proposes to signalize its reunion with Pickett's divis ion of Confederate forces at Gettys burg next month, by returning to the survivors of the latter command the ' three flags captured during the j mem orable engagement which it is the inten tion of the opposing forces to celebrate by a fraternal gathering. With. this view, Col. Jnlin W. :. Frazier, who commanded the Seventy-, first regiment at the battle- of i Gettysburg, has writtten a letter to President Cleveland designating; the flags desired, and ■ asking whether -it is possible for the . president to return them to the Regiment Association of the : Seventy-first Pennsylvania volunteers.'; The request has been . referred- to the secretary of war. It is now settled that at least 150 of Pickett's men will be the guests of the Philadelphia brigade at Gettysburg July 2, 3, and 4. _: Gov. Lee was invited, but will be. unable to at tend. He writes that he regrets that prior conflicting engagements will pre vent his presence .on . the '_ occasion "which will bring together the survivors of -such opposing . historical " organiza- * tions, and where such -an* opportunity • will be presented to honor American valor in the union of the . Blue : and the " Gray."; Sherman • also writes that a previous engagement will prevent his attendance, and adds: " "Such a reunion on the battlefield of Gettysburg of " op posing forces so distinguished for cour- : age, 1 heroism and great losses will be a striking and hopeful evidence of the re spect that brave sol .Hers always cherish ! for gallant enemies, and :of the lessen ing animosities of the war. Union sol diers readily and heartily., acknowledge the courage and honesty of ; purpose of Confederate soldiers, and this feeling is, I believe, as readily and heartily recip rocated by them. There should be no enmity or prejudice between them, and, now that all alike feel that an inde structible union binds us together, there should be a cordial and. hearty fellow ship between the 'Blue and the Gray.'" -*m+* SENATOR SUMNER'S EXAMPLE WK««t a Distinguished .

June June 30, being the close of the fiscal year of the Chicago, St. Paul & j Kansas City rail way, it has been consolidated with the Minnesota & Northwestern V railroad ; and officers will hereafter manage the Diagonal in connection with their own road in St. Paul.

Carson, of this city, will to-morrow make public charges against the present postmaster, William H. Price,' of having. tampered with his mail by intentionally retaining it from May 5 until June 25, thus debarring him from answering communications from the postoffice department relative to his accounts during the first quarter of - the current year, and thereby bringing him into disrepute with the department officials, besides depriving him of an amount due him from the department. Postmaster Price is out of town and his answer to the charges cannot be learned. His ; assistants say that Mr. Carson's letters were overlooked and- there was nothing intentional in it. Mr. Carson says he thinks it very strange that his letters should be placed in his possession the day after the limit allowed by the r* postoffice department had expired for answering and not be fore. The department sent a letter to Mr. Carson on May 5 asking for a tran script of his special deliver}* accounts during the last quarter of his incum bency, but the letter not being received, no transcript was sent. Early in June another letter of the same purport came, giving him until June 24 to have the transcript at -Washington { or else suffer the loss of a balance possibly due him. On" June 25 Mr. Carson received the let ters. He says he has already secured, affidavits bearing on the case, and will demand an investigation. *m \2^' NO HYSTERICS.

"There were thirty-seven clerks in the second and third classes of j the quartermaster | general's office examined,'.' said Mr. O. ■ B.
