It was not the bitter laugh of the
cynic, nor yet the big-bodied laugh
of the hurley joker; least OF all was it
the thin and raspiDg oackle of the
dyepeptic satirisi. Bet it was a,
broad. honest, human laugh. which.
beginning in the brain, took into it's
action the whole heart and diaphram,
and instantly changed the worn face
into something frank and even win
ming, giving to it an expression that
would have won the confidence of
any child. Nor did it convey the
impression OF an exceptional thing
that bad occurred for tee first time
that day. and might never happen
again. 1t rather produced the effect.
OF something habitusI; of being the
channel, we'll worn for years, by
which the overflow OF strong nature
was discharged. 1t cleared the air
like thunder, and LETT the stmos-

himself, ii not to US. DO not let Us
take this too seriously; it is my way
of putting things. What refuge is
there for man who looks below the
surface in a world like this, except
to laugh now and then?" The laugh,
in short, revealed the numorist; if 1
said the genial humorist, wearing a
mask OF grimness, L should hardly
60 too far fer the impression it left.
At any rate it shifted the ground,
and transformed the whole matter to
that realm of thought where men
play with things. The instant Car

and the report was adopted except as to the
boom bill.
Mr.. Kendall moved that the bill be passed.

whereupon the house adjourned.

HOUSE,.

The house transacted only routine business
yesterday. A large number of bills were in
troduced, and some of them passed under sns
pension of the rules, the most important Of
them being one introduced by Judge Wilson,
to submit to the people anew the PROPOSE tior
to devote the proceeds of the sale of interna
improvement lands. There was but one mega

sumed in discussing, in committee of the
whole, the capitol appropriation bill, and the
st. Louis River boom bill, while all the even
ing session was taken up with the latter meas
ure. The capitol bill was recommended fol
passage and the boom bill was killed.

THE NEW APPORTIONMENT.

After great deal of tribulation and
multitude of schemes, the legislature has,
at last, passed congressional apportion
ment bill. The great point sought to be
gained has been to so gerrymander the
state that the Democratic counties would
be placed in districts with sufficient
number of Republican counties to be
more than neutralized. The result of
this effort is the formation of the follow
ing districts:
The counties of Houston, Fillmore, Mower,
Freeborn, Steele, Dodge, Olmsted, Winona and
Wabashaw, shall constitute the first congress
sional district.
The counties of Faribault, Blue Earth,
Waseca, Watonwan, Martin, Cottonwood.
Jackson, Murray, Mobiles, Rock, Pipestone,
Lincoln, Lyon, Redwood, Brown, Nicollef,
Yellow Medicine, Lac qui Parle, Sibley and lie
Sueur, shall constitute the second congress
sional district.
The counties of Goodhue, Rice, Dakota,
Scott, Carver, Mcleod, Meeker, Kandiyohi,
Renvlle, Swift and Chippewa, shall constitute
the Third congressional district.
The counties of Washington, Ramsey, Hen
nepln, Anoka, Chisago, Pine, Kanabec,
Wright, Isanti and Sherburne, shall constitute
the tOurLn cOngre SSlOnal ulSlrlct.
The counties of Mile Laos, Benton, Stearns,
Pope, Douglas, Stevens, Big Stone, Traverse,
Grant, Todd, Crow Wing, Aitkin, Carlton,
Wadena, Otter Tail, Wilkin, Cass, Becker,
Clay, Polk, Beltrami, Marshall, Kittson,
Itasco, st. Louis, Lake and Cook, shall consti-
tute the Fifth congressional district.
The first district has three possible
Democratic counties, Offset by six large
and certain Republican counties.
The second has two Democratic coun-
ties and eighteen strong Republican.
The third has three Democratic coun-
ties and eight Republican.
The fourth has two Democratic coun-
ties Zone exceedingly small) and eight
Republican.
The fifth has two Democratic counties
and twenty-four Republican.
This plan of apportionment ought to
suit the most violent partisan postmaster
in the State. 1t would have been both
fair and polite 70 have made one Demo-
cratic district out of the five, but such
fairness was too much to expect. There
is no valid reason why large minority
of the people should be denied represen-
tation. Furthermore the House is sure
to have large Democratic element, even
if not controlled by Democrats, and one
Democrat in the Minnesota delegation
would be able to secure cooperation up
on matters affecting the State, which a
solid Republican delegation cannot hope
to obtain. The public interests, however.
are not what the Republicans are watch
ing. They are looking for the spoils.
and if that can be secured by legislative
chicanery, their course will not be uncer-
tain. The bill just passed, which DELHI
erately destroys all hope of Democratic
representation, is fair sample of Repub-
hcan iberality and justice.

| " went into committee of the whole, Mr..
Comstock in the chair, on bills on general or
ders.
A protracted discussion took place on the
bill appropriating $4,000 for the completion
of the state capitol.
Mr.. Norrish explained the bill, and read a
| statement from the governor showing the
| amount already expended, the amount Of the
contracts already awarded, the total amount
footing up to $91 900. The governor stated
that it would require $4,000 more to COM
plete the capitol without rendering it fire.

Mr.. Fletcher opposed the bill unless it
| should contain prOviso that the sum appro-
priated should be the last the legislature
should be called upon to make.
Mr.. Smith advocated the passage of the bill,
| asserting that he was perfectly willing to
| trust the governor with the disposition of the
money. The governor had thought the
| building might be utilized for the new build
! ing, but on examination it was found that
| they were practically useless.
Mr.. Donahue offered substitute appropri-
ating $100, 900 for the purpose, and creating
commission of five to superintend the con-
struction of the building ana to attend to the
disbursements of the funds. Mr.. Donahue

what the people wanted. The substitute was
lost.
Mr.. Dunn favored the bill, but thought
mistake had been made at the last session in
not providing adequately for a substantial,
handsome and fire-proof building.
Mr.. Sabin moved to increase the appropria-
ton to 100000 Carried.
Mr.. Fletcher moved that the amount should
be in full for construction and furnishing of
the capitol, and that no further appropriation
of any sort should be made.
A running discussion took place on the mo-
ton, participated in by Messrs. Sanborn, ga
bin, Dunn. Norrish and Donahue. Mr.. San
born read statement showing that in the
last twenty-three years the amount appropri-
ated for all purposes for the capitol, including
the $75, 900 for rebuilding, had only amounted
to $1S7 ,979.69, while other state buildings had
drawn from the treasury over 81 900 600 for
the construction account only.
Mr. Fletcher's motion was, after further de-
bate, adopted as far as that the amount should
cover the whole cost of construction, but lost
as to the furnishing.

Both Ramsey and Hennepin counties
would have been delighted if they could
have been placed in separate congressiona
districts. There are so many great men in
these two counties that they should not
be confined in one district, thereby Sc
curing but one congressman. In fact
St. Paul and Minneapolis stand ready to
supply the entire five congressman if de-
sired. The rural legislators have sadly
nipped many youthful aspirations by this
arbitrary and heartless union. They
ought to be ashamed of themselves.
