Now and then, in some places, the close fitting lid is the proper thing to wear—the kind that fits tight and snug and square. Then something happens and the lids begin to tilt. That is what happened in St. Paul on New Year's eve. The Capitol city presumed to have a lid which | goes on duty at 11 o’clock every| night and all day Sunday. i It is notorious that, while other cities and towns'of the state are en- deavoring to obey the state liquor laws, St. Paul all the time, and Min- neapolis most of it, pays about as much attention to the Sunday closing | law as Jumbo, the giant elephant, does to a baby flea. New Year's eve in St. Paul is a glowing example and in this instance it was not the lowly saloon keeper and his persistant patrons who were the lawbreakers. No, indeed. It was the “swells”—both men and wo- men of the upper ten, who purchased liquor and it was the fashionable cafes and leading hotels that sold it, and said liquid refreshments were not of the “scuttle of suds” variety but rather the $4 a crack kind. Of coure the sparkling beverage was purchased to properly (?) cele- brate the birth of 1911 and there ‘was, to be sure much merriment, but a lid broken by joyful revelers is just as badly fractured as if it were kicked into oblivion by a sturdy drinker of alcohol who lends his as- sistance in denuding our forests. But the Jifting of the 1id was per- haps nft’fl:e most- noteworthy <ok the St. Paul celebration. It reveal- ed rather an astounding social con- dition. Men of the town, leaders in busi- ness, flnanciers and others, clad in dress suits participated in events which included fist fights in promi- nent cafes and continued their “mirth making” in other riotous ways in prominent hotels, the particular re- volting feature of their escapades being the part played by women of standing, although many of them couldn’t stand early New Year's morning. Those women made the night ring with song and jest and many a silken gown is still at the cleaning establishment on an unsuc- cessful mission to have wine stains removed. This, of course, is speaking in gen- eralities, and dosen’t have the same effect that it would have had could the skeptic who reads have been present. About the time he had seen an elaborately gowned woman mount the table at one of the lead- ing hotels in St. Paul and there drink to the health of the New Year, and could have heard the continual crack of the champagne bottles, and could have seen a certain gentleman jump through the bass drum of the high priced orchestra and then prance around like a clown at the circus to the edification of the “smart set” and could have seen a certain business man scrawl his name to a check for $103 to pay for property, broken, said skeptic would begin to under- stand that St. Paul society folks do not intend that Chicago and New York shall do all the foolish things that are to be done on New Year’s eve. But getting back to the lid ques- tion again. It is only fair to the cafe proprietors to say that, unless you had your order in earlier than 11 o’clock, all intoxicants were served in tea cups. The more you know about the cities, the better Bemidji looks—Ilid or no lid. I WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY | Dissagreeably Surprised. Bemidji was dissagreeably sur- prised the first of the week to learn that the 7000 they claimed as their population was dwindled to 5100, filled With utoplan boomers Who build on hopes rather than upon facts. The loss is a big one and should put some of the boomers to shame, if they have any conception of the meaning of inat term. - We have unbounded sympathy with our sister city in her moments of humil- ation and shall wait with patience the slow movements of the census department to hear what Cass Lake can claim without any boosting or padding.—Cass Lake Times. Under the Commission Plan. “The city council of Cedar Rapids does business without scrapping,” declared Almon S. Reed, commission- er of parks under the commission plan in that city who was a visitor in Des Moines last week. “The Cedar Rapids plan stands for har-| mony. There has never been any dissension in -the council since its organization last April. There are diverging views, of course, but before the meetings of the council we get to- gether like business men, and nine cages out of every ten when the mem- bers get into the council chamber any proposition before the body is passed One of the most important results which has: followed the adoption of the com-| mission plan in Cedar Rapids is that | the Bohemian-Americans, who con-| stitute one-third of the population of the city are for' the plan now and would not vote against it if they had the opportunity. When the plan was adopted the Bohemian votes as a whole was polled against the new | form of government.”—Des Moines Leader. unanimously. Negro Holds Police at Bay.
