8 IGNORING THE Lfltf MAYOR DORAN'S EXCUSE FOR PAC ING NO ATTENTION TO A MAN DATORY CLAl Sfcl IN THE ACT HE HOLDS GOOD. IT SAYS HE "SHALL" APPOINT FOUR MEMBERS OF THE PARK. BOARD. WHEN ACT IS MADE APPLICABLE. The Latter Took Pluee When He In stalled Copeland Commissioner of Public Works. The members of the board of pub lic works are of the opinion that Mayor Doran has discriminated against them and in favor of the board of park commissioners. In proof of this the> point to the fact that while the mayor has done all in his power to turn out the board of public works, by appointing a commissioner of pub lic works in place of the board,- he has seen fit to utterly disregard an other mandatory section of the act of 1895, which requires him to also ap point a new board of park commission ers as soon as the act takes effect. The language of Section 116, page 562 of the act creating a department of public works is, in part, as follows: The mayor of each city, as soon as this act Is made applicable thereto, shall appoint four membe-s of the park commission which shall supersede the park commission then ex isiting in' said city. It will be observed that the mayor l>as neglected to comply with this pro \ision which is explicit as to time and mandatory in character. Mayor Doran, When asked yesterday why he had not appointed a new park board, gave this explanaticn: •If the old board of public works had submitted at once to the action of the law abolishing it, I would have proceeded to appoint a park board im mediately, but in view of the fuss the members of the old board have made and the fact that the legality or validity of the act is to be contested in the courts, I concluded that no harm would be done if I left the park board alone until the legal question should be determined. The fact of the matter is I couldn't at this minute name the present members of the park board, with the exception of Messrs. Wheelock and Hamm. When this matter is final ly settled in the courts, if the board of public works ever intend to take it there, It will be time enough to ap point a new park board." It is the opinion of lawyers general ly that, as the law says the mayor "shall" appoint a board of park com missioners to supersede the existing park board, as soon as the law becomes applicable, the present park board has no legal existence, if the act of 3895 is valid, and Mayor Doran is go- Ing on the presumption it is. These same legal gentlemen think the mayor has no option in the matter, having already named his commissioner of public works. \\ WTED FOR LARCENY.

THE SAINT PAUL GLOBE: FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 1896. FOURTH CliflSSP.lW.'S THEY WANT MORK PAY AJiD PROTECTION OF THE CIVIL SERVICE. MINNESOTA STAMP LICKERS ORGANIZE TO PISH THEIR CLAIMS IN CONGRESS AND ELSEWHERE. WILL MEET AGAIN SUNDAY To Extend the Meniberahlp and Formulate Requenta i .in liotl > in v Their Moat Urgent Need*. The fourth class postmasters of Min nesota, it transpires, recently met at North St. Paul, and organized a branch of the National League of Fourth Class Postmasters, and will hold another meeting next Sunday at a point ac cessible to the Twin Cities to take active steps for the betterment of their con dition. The league has already given its indorsement to the Cummings and Hardy bills, now pending in congress, for securing better compensation for postmasters of the fourth class, and has also asked the civil service com mission for the protection of the civil service laws. The circular calling the meeting for ntxt Sunday says: "Now is our golden opportunity to make a united effort for improvement in our own condition, and consequently for an improved public service. The bills now before congress for increasing our remuneration have as yet found no voice of dissent in that body and only wait the united demand of the postmasters themselves to secure their final passage. They have already been ordered printed, read twice and re ferred to the committee on postal af fairs, with whom it now rests to re port them to congress for final passage. The congressmen so far approached have expressed their entire sympathy with us, and their readiness to vote for both these bills when put on their final passage. As regards civil service, the commis sion has actually prepared and submit ted to the department a plan for ex tending the law to us. But the depart ment deemed it too complicated, and referred it back to the commission to be revised and simplified. This revision is now being made. Thus the commis sion and the department are both work ing hard to bring about this great re form before the present administration gees out of office. -A member of the commission has expressed the desire th t the feu th-c!ass postmasters should themselves, both collectively and in dividually, show an active interest in this matter, and arouse also the inter est and support of the patrons of their respective offices, that the authorities may be encouraged to push through this reform by the knowledge that there is a public demand for it. The present congress will reassemble after the elections are over; the pres ent administration will complete its term of office next March. Neither congress nor the administration, there fore, will be hampered by questions of mere party expediency in the effort to meet fairly our demands for civil service protection and increased re muneration. We propose, then, with your assist ance, to build up a state branch of the National League of Fourth-Class Post masters in our own state, and to push on at once the organizing of a county branch in every county in the state. Branches are now being organized in other states, and from these branches representatives will be chosen to meet and organize the national league. The circular is signed by North Star branch by P. F. Murphy, president, P. M. at North St. Paul; F. W. Jaynes, vice president, P. M. at Grant; Lorenzo J. Markoe, recording secretary, P. M. at White Bear Lake; W. J. O'Brien, cor responding secretary, P. M. at St. Paul Park; Miss Mary Beson, treasurer, P. M» at Centreville; Timothy Fee, of executive committee, P. M. at Mendota; Wm. Rawleigh, of ex ecutive committee, P. M. at Combs; B. R. Kellogg, P. M. at Hugo; James Reid, P. M. at South St. Paul; Wm. Mueller, P. M. at Gladstone; Mrs. Wm. Mueller, assistant P. M. at Glad stone; Geo. T. Reid, P. M. at South Stillwater; Mrs. Mary Murphy, assist ant P. M. at North St. Paul; F. L. Rawson, P. M. at New Brighton; Mrs. W. J. O'Brien, assistant P. M. at St. Paul Park. THIEVES DURING G. A. R. Chief Goss Inhiicm Some Words of Advice. In anticipation of the crowds and also of the thieves who will attend the G. A. R. encampment, Chief of Police Goss yesterday issued the following order. The order is addressed to the captains and lieutenants in charge of the several stations, but as mention is made of storekeepers and residents and a piece of advice given them, the order is published in full. Captains and Lieutenants in charge of Sta tions: Instruct patrolmen to notify all resi dents and storekeepers to take extra good care, especially during the encampment week, to have their houses and stores well guarded by securely fastening doors and windows. Further notify them to be sure to leave some one at home to take care of the premises whenever they are away, and also request them to watch all suspicious characters and report them at once to the police authorities. In view of the fact that a great many visitors are expected, the influx of bad characters will be in proportion. Crimes and house breaking can be held at a minimum if resi dents and storekeepers will take extra pre cautions during the G. A. R. encampment. ST. PAIL ELKS' OITING. Plans for an Enjoyable Day at Lake Mlnne tonka. The energetic members of St. Paul Lodge No. 59, B. P. O. E., are busily en gaged making preparations for the coming Elks' outing, which is slated for next Wednesday at Lake Minnetonka. The regular entertainment committee of the lodge, Messrs. Bartels, Tibbils, and Lederer. assisted by Messrs. J. H. W T hitaker, F. H. Rice, George Allen, C. B. Bowlby. A. E. Whitney, H. E. Whaley and Harry Hardick, has out lined a programme which will include more different kinds of fun than men who are not Elks could possibly de vise. The horned brethren, with their families and friends, will leave in the morning on a special train over the Minneapolis & St. Louis road for Lake Park, where the steamer St. Louis will be in waiting to take the tourists for a trip about the lake. After an evening dinner at the Lake Park hotel the visitors will be given the freedom of the place and there will be an informal hop. There will be entertainment fur nished on the train, on the boat and at the hotel, and much of the success of the trip will be the result of the im promptu fun for which the Elks, and especially the local lodge, are famed. The special train will be held for the return of the travelers. WANT A QUO WARRANTO W T RIT. Mi nuest polls Real Estate Men Have a Fulling Oat. Willard A. Regan and William H. Piece,' of the Nelson-Regan Realty company, Minneapolis, appeared before Attorney-general Childs yesterday to ask that quo warranto proceedings should be instituted to compel the man- agement of the company to show cause why the incorporation should not be dissolved. It is set forth in the peti tion for the dissolution that the officers have been mismanglng the affairs of the company and have failed and re fused to pr ducei the book? and accounts of tho company to the petitioning stock holders, for wfcich* reasons, they desire to terminate tihe corporation and pro tect their inteßests in its affairs. The attorney .general took the case under advisement.' HAS AJ.KKAJJY CUT IT. Marion MIUm i> Standing Close to Hw Contract. Marion MiILJ, Gk W. Atheran's fast mare, covered! a mile at the Oshkosh track Wednesday without a driver, bridle or lines, in 2:081,4, breaking all previous records for the performance, including her town of 2:12%. This is taken as an assurance that at the com ing state fair she will at least fulfill her contract, iivhich was to break her former record of 2:12%. The mare is hitched to a sulky, and when -led to the track is almost uncontrollable, seeming crazy to start. When the word is given she quickly attains a high rate of speed and goes around the track without breaking. She comes down the home stretch as if she had a hot field of competitors behind her, but when she passes the judge's stand, slows down of her own accord, turns around and comes back to be rubbed down and blanketed. The exhibits from the several North western states seem likely to arrive with a promptness that will be highly gratifying to the state fair managers. Word yesterday was received from Portland that two car-loads of Oregon products, accompanied by four com missioners, can be expected by Friday. Geo. P. Eaton, Secretary of the Wash ington Immigration association at Seattle, also sends notice that the Washington exhibit, which he has been largely instrumental in selecting, is ready for shipment. Hon. Austin North, of Billings, writes that the col lection of Montana grains, grasses and fruits, made by himself and Prof. S. M. Emery, of the Montana State Ex perimental station, will be shipped in a few days. J. H. Edwards has also given notice that the exhibits of grains and grasses of the Flathead Valley is ready to come. A sub-station of the weather bureau will be located at the fair grounds this year. A flag post is to be erected in a conspicious position and the U. S. signal service will be practically dem onstrated. Clarke Chambers, superintendent of police, and C. N. Cosgrove, superin tendent of gates, of the board of man agers, yesterday morning practically completed arrangements for policing the fair this year, appointing the day and night forces for the grounds, etc. John Warner is to be superintendent of the Exposition building, and L. C. Epler superintendent of the North western Resources building. The Fer ris wheel, sixty feet high, will arrive within a day or two and the work of its erection begun. Quite a number of contributions for the programme to be put on News paper Men's Day, Saturday, Sept. sth, have been received. Hank Seelye has offered to send his pacer, Albatross, against any bicycle rider that may be selected for a quarter of a mile. Albat ross is considered the fastest quarter horse in the world and, although driven to buggy about the streets daily, has repeatedly gone a quarter In :28 seconds. All offers of features for the day should be made to Fred W. Bushell, president of the Minne apolis Press club, or Geo. W. Dodds, president of the St. Paul Press club. GOOD TIME TO MOVE COAL. The Rates from Uulutli Are Still Un settled. The action of the St. Paul & Duluth in canceling the compromise rate of 87Vi den tis from the head- of the lakes to the Twin Cities, whioh was to have gone into effect Sept. 1, as heretofore mentioned in the Globe, will be the cause of more or less friction between that line and competing roads inter ested in Superior traffic. The freight men of the other lines profess surprise at the action of the St. Paul & Duluth, although it has been understood ever since the bolt of the Burlington and the Milwaukee on the Chicago-Twin City agreement that the St. Paul & Duluth, would replace the 75 cent rate. If the other lines meet the rate, as they nat urally will be compelled to, it will doubtless mean the movement of great quantities of coal between the head of the lakes and the dual cities. HOLD-OVER IN KITTSOX. Special Ruling onihe Term of Clerk Atnistrong. Attorney General Childs yesterday sent to Secretary of State Berg an opinion that no election would be neces sary this year for the office of clerk of the court of Kittson county. The in cumbent of the office died in 1893, and although his term would not have ex pired until the first of January next, at the regular election in 1894, N. G. Armstrong, who had been appointed to the vacancy, was regularly nomi nated and elected for the ensuing term. The attorney general holds that where an office has a fixed term, an election must as a rule be construed to be for that term and not to fill an unexpired term. On that interpretation, he holds that Mr. Armstrong's term will con tinue until the first Monday in January 1899. Discussed Ttrotod way P:sv!nic. The board of public works granted another hearing yesterday in the matter of paving Broadway, between Third and Seventh streets. L. T. Chamberlain, representing the Northern Pacific Railroad company, Edward Schurmeier and others appeared, and asked for a continuance, as they had not yet de cided on the material to be used. The mat ter was continued until nextrMonday after noon. The board allowed estimates for the vari ous improvements now in progress, including paving, grading, sidewalks, sprinkling, etc., amounting in all to the sum of $47,203.25. The commissioner of public works yesterday adjourned the hearing in the matter of paving Broadway Until next Thursday at 2 p. m., owing to the absence of several of the in terested property owners, who will be noti fied by postal card to be present at that time. The assessment for paving upper Sixth street was confirmed. Italian Goes Insane. Battestesa Angelo, an Italian thirty years old, was taken to the central station yes terday morning violently insane. Angelo started from Great Falls for his home in the old country, but the anticipation of the visit or something else drove him mad. When he arrived at the Unions Depot yesterday morn ing he was so violent that it took three policemen to handle; Jiim. He has in his possession transportation to New York and a ticket to Havre* vla> the French steamship line, and $4 in money. He was taken to I the county Jail and will be examined in the probate court this morning. If possible he will be sent backi to Great Falls. Great Western Officials Confer. General Passengers Agent Lord, Division Superintendent Kelley, of Chicago, Division Superintendent D.. F. Egan, of Dcs Moines, and Division Superintendent Ford, of Oel wein, all of the Grea£ Western, were in con ference yesterday; with the general officers of that line concerning the arrangements for the forthcoming -i encampment. The Great V'estern expects ts haul thousands of people, as its line taps aothickly populated territory. The operating department has already ar ranged for the distribution of rolling stock, and the running of the necessary special trains. Decorating: the Union Depot. The severly plain front of the Union Depot will be placed in an effectual disguise during the G. 4. R. encampment. Yesterday Supt. McMillan looked over a plan for the decora tion of the building with flags, bunting, festoons and other devices, and decided to carry Into effect quite an elaborate decorative programme. The front of the building will be handsomely draped in national colors.
