THE TROUBLES
OF FITZi
The Jolliers Had Sonic Fun With tfcfr Mdat
Vendor This Moroin*.
Fitz had a rush order of fish to ^lc
liver at the academy this morning, and
saw ft rig standing ill front of! the cifefir
store which lie thought belonged to AVt
Bowers. He asked for the use of the
rig—and Art obligingly said "certainly."
The meat market man drove the horse
across the street and put three large
fish in the vehicle and started for north
Broadway. The real owner of the horse
and buggy appeared and entered a pro
test to the high handed manner in which
his. horse was taken but Fitz finally
squared the deal and secured the'owner's
consent to use the rig.
Before he had gone a block two of
the largest fish fell out and spectators
yelled at Fitz calling attention to the
Joss, but the Irishman though he was
being joshed some more and airily waved
his hand at the shouters without looking
back.
When lie reached north Broadway lie
'phoned that some son of a sea c* ok
had swiped two of the fish.
A large crowd collected at the Broad
way by the time Fitz retutne and the
joshing he got would have faded any one
else than a man of his unlimited gall.

ABOUT R. R. PASSES.
St. Paul Dispatch: The Northern
Pacific passenger department refuses a
,i"ar jPairjt tqniinrpsiOnerMcCon
iieltnoVstWe poim in'!rOrth liakota.
\'l1eYe he xffiSli'e'Sr to sfJeftk words
cheer and. encouragement to sundry
larrners who are ambitious to add the
niakin^qf -butter to tlieir yarip^^ccom
IIishme»Us. Mr. McConncll, possibly,
thinks that he is merety co-operating
in tli edevelopinent of the industries 01
that country, which, in turn, would
bring additional freight to the road, and
that, in a way. he is a sort of advance
freight agent, of course, and merely
as a reflex action of his more important
and legitimate work, the development
of butter-making.
The company, on the other hand,
probably argues that Mr. McConnell's
jurisdiction is limited to Minnesota
that North Dakota is able tr) care for
itself: that no missionary efforts are
needed there: that if the commissioner
wishes to visit North Dakota !ic should
pay his way and not go d. h. Possibly,
also, the man who controls passes has
been reading the appropriation bill of
the last legislature and noted the couple
of hundred dollars added to the com
missioner's salary, and the $i2.coo ad
ded to the standing appropriation for
expenses of the dairy and food depart
ment, and argues that it is in shape to
pay its way as lesser folk have to.
Then again there is the probability
that this railway, at ieast, is getting
weary of this pass business. It may be
remembered that its president, in send
ing out the customary passes to mem
bers of the legislature last year—to save
them from paying the fares to meet
which the state gives theni 15 cents a
mile—limited the duration of the char
ity to the session of the legislature, in
stead of making them "annuals."
Plainly, Mr. Melien regards the pass
gratuities as an evil, and began its
gradual elimination by that gentle pro
cess. after the recipe of curing dogs of
the habit of killing sheep by beginning
at the tail to cut off and ending at the
neck. We recall the radical divergence
of views between the president of the
Northern Pacific and the recipients of
his curtailed passes, and the indignation
of the latter at this invasion of what
they had grown up to regard as vested
right.. If the reporters accurately rep
resented the commissioner's feelings
over the denial of a pags, it might be
inferred that lie also regards free rides
as a perquisite of office.
Still, we remain of .the:' opinion ex
pressed when legislative passes were a
live topic, that the practice is bad where
it is not vicious that there is 110 rea
son why Smith, official, should be let
to ride free of cost, and why Smith, pri
vate citizen, should have to go into his
pocket-book for the money with which
to pay for hys ride. Smith, citizen, nat
urally concludes-that he is not. getting
a "fair deal" when he. riding in the
same car with Smith, official, sees the
latter present deadhead pass while he
has ttf git'e up Ctfcket for wlifch he has
paid his good money.
