Tho Entra Session Question.
fStillwater MESSENGER.

Considerable pressure is being brought
upon Governor Pillsbury to induce him to
call special session of the legislature.
While the people of our State are to be con-
graduated for having adopted the amend
ment to the constitution providing for BIZ
ennial sessions, it is barely possible that the
amendment was adopted trihe too soon.
In the older States it is probable that ses
sion of the legislature once in five years
would be amply sufficient. But experience
has shown in now and rapidly developing
States like our own, there is need of more
frequent settings of the law making body.
But one of the prominent reasons why there
should be a special session of the Minnesota
legislature at an early day is the fact that our
supreme court has recently decided that our
tax laws are so radically defective that tax
title is utterly worthless. If it is possible to
frame tax laws so that they will hold water
the work should commence as soon as pos
sible, even if it is necessary to submit to the
Inconvenience of on extra session of the
legislature.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 23.-The Gazette on this
morning will publish an interview with two
business men of Belfast, Ireland, now in this
city, in which they state that the sending of
aid to Ireland at this juncture, would be re-
garded as an interference by the British gov
eminent. That there is really no distress that
requires such extraordinary measures of relief,
and that to send money and provisions to Ire
land would be equivalent to rendering SO much
aid to the Irish in their struggle against the
British government.

The WeaE Man the Strongest.
FDelano Eagle.

1t was thought that Gilman, the candidate
for acknowledgement on the Republican
ticket, was weak man, and would very
likely run behind his ticket, or would even
be defeated. It appears, however, that he
received several thousand more votes than
Pillsbury. From this it must follow that
either Gilman is strong man, or that
Pillsbury is weak man, or, what is more
likely, that the people are disguised with
the latter, and are inclined against third
term governor.

Judge Coo at Ne,U Uta,.
(Mankato Free Press. !


Judge Cox gave the grand jury at New
Ulm, at the opening of the court on Tues
day last, a ringing charge on morals gener-
ally. lie charged them in strong terms to
look into the whole matter of selling liquor
to minors. That he himself had seen two
youths drunk upon the streets and in a
shameful condition. He charged the grand
jury to inquire into all such cases with rigid
fidelity, and if the jury would do its duty
here was court ready and willing to try
the cases. The judge was particularly Wig
orous in his t-anunciation of the preambu-
lating swindiers who seduce farmers into
signing notes which are simply frauds. He
wants these rascals brought to the bar of
justice. Judge Cox honors himself and the
bench by his trenchant charge to the jury,
and shows himself to be a faithful custodian
of great public interests.

The St. Paul and Minneapolis Pioneer

by G. A. Gilman for lieutenant governor in
excess of those cast for j. s. Pillsbury as
governor, but its explanations are not war
ranted by the facts. The truth of the mat
ter is that the people were not in favor of
the third term, and took this method of ex-
pressing their dissatisfaction, nothing more
and nothing less.

The Minneapolis Relief Train.

The Minneapolis fremen who responded
to the call from Pennington for assistance
on Saturday evening, returned yesterday, and
from Chief Engineer Bracket the GLOBE
reporter obtained the following statements
in regard to their trip. By some unfortunate
circumstances. the department, after arriving
at the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul depot in
Minneapolis at few minutes past 10 O'Clock,
were delayed until 1890 before train could be
procured to carry them to their destination.
At first an empty fiat car for the engine
could not be found, and then the locomotive
had to be wooded up, and other things of
like character had to be attended to. After
starting at 1890 another stop was made at
Mendoza for the purpose of changing loco
motives, and when at last they arrived at
the scene of the confagration they were
just two and one-half honrs behind
time, and the fire fend had DESTROYED all
| within its reach and there was no need of
outside assistance. The origin of the fire
is unknown, but it is believed spark from
| passing locomotive lodged about the stable
of the Niskern house, and ignited the in
fammable material, and the flames thus
started were rapidly famed into serious
confagration by the gale blowing at the
time.

The Y. NJ. 9. A. convention held in Still
water during tho past three days has been
largely attended by those interested in tho
cause as we'll as by the citizens of Saltwater.
The exercises were conducted In an earnest
and hearty manner and the work performed
has been productive of much good. The
churches were crowded each evening by at
tentive audiences, who gave strict attention
to the eloquent speakers who addressed
them.
At the close of Saturdays exercises the
following resolutions were submitted by the
committee on resolutions and adopted:
The members of the Y. M. O. A., in con-
vention assembled at Saltwater, do hereby
resolve:
First-That our sincere thanks be extended
to the railroad companies who have aided
our attendance by oonsenting to carry Us to
and from Saltwater at reduced rates; to the
citizens of this city who have 60 kindly
opened their hearts and homes to all dele
gates and visitors.
Second-That We recognize the unity of
Christian feeling between the churches of
Saltwater and their pastors, and the mani
fest sympathy with the work of the Y. NJ. G.
A. Also, the kindness of each in opening
their rooms and houses of worship for the
meetings of the convention.
Third.-That our thanks are due to tho
warden and contractors for the invitation to
visit the State prison, and for our kind re-
ception.
Fourth.-That It is the earnest desire of
this convention that all right efforts be made
to secure State secretary for the coming
year, to revive the work among the oldest as
sociations and to establish new ones wher-
ever needed.
Fifth.-That We do heartily second all
that has been said in this convention against
the circulation of obscene literature, be-
lieving it to be one of the greatest means of
corrupting our youth, and that we are in
sympathy with the work of MIR. Oomstock,
of New York, for its suppression.
Sixth.-That while We feel deep interest
in the work of our own State, we recognize the
need of united effort on the part of the as
sociations of North America, in taking this
land for Christ, and believe the international
committee potent means to this end.
Seventh.-That We are thankful to God
tor bringing among US such devoted Chris
tan laborers as Maj or Whlttls and Mr.. Mo.
Granular and many others, not directly
connected with the convention, who have
added so much to it's interest.
Eighth-That this convention recognizes
in the Waterman, a paper invaluable to the
association cause, an organ of commune
cation, and hereby recommend all the asso-
citation men to use their best endeavors to
have it subscribed for and circulated.
The power of deciding on the placesof
holding the next annual convention was DELE
gated to the executive committee.
About $500 we're subscribed by the asso~
Citations present and by individuals for the
support of State secretary.

Important commissioners Meeting.

lhapOEbdiiL SOEAuAisSioilcFS uecIihEs
A fully attended meetiugof the Board of
County Commissioners was held on Tues
day. The following resolution was unani-
mously passed.
WHEREAS, at the present time, but very
few prisoners are in the county Jail, and all
the improvements and repairs, on the build
ing and grounds being completed, it is re-
solved, to dispense with a watchmnn or
warden at the Jail after the 3lst of this
month.
This resolution was passed in order to re-
duce the county expenses and lift, as far as
practical, the burden Of taxation from the
shoulders of taxpayers; unless the number Of
prisoners in Jail, in future shall be greatly
increased, the office Of warden, it is under
stood, is to be permanently dispensed with
thus saving salaried official to the county.
The Commissioners ClerE was instructed to
notify tax collectors that the tax duplicates
for all years previous to 1879 shall be settled
at once.
Numerous complaints having been on
tered at the Commissioners office, that the
law prohibiting fast driving over the county
bridges is dlsregarded, Capt. II. L. Schwartz
has given notice that the law relating thereto
will hercelorth be strictly enforced. There
are II county bridges which have recently
been inspected, and are now being put in
thorough repairs. It is to the interest OF
x-payers to see that the law in regard tc
driving faster than walk over these bridge.
