John Ma,heis, Garnet House.

Mr.. John Matheis, the great carpet king
Of the Northwest, is still at the head of the
business. He has been taking account of
stock and iAds that the figures tell on the
right side of the balance Sheet That is
where they always tell with him. for he
always manages to get the latest styles of
carpets, curtains, rugs, oil cloth, and all
else pertaining to his bust
ness, from the manufacturers.
and in that way outstrips all competitors.
Now that he has accomplished the feat of
taking account of stock and found that
everything balances up all right he is pre-
pared to dispose of goods at ruinously low
prices. All who desire extra good goods
at reduced figures will find their opportu-
nifty now, and for the next thirty days at
the great carpet house of John Matheis. He
proposes to drop the prices right down
to bed rock, He is good natured owing to
the results of the years business, and will
give his customers the best chances for
bargains they ever had in the city of st.
Paul. Everybody knows where his place
of business is, on Third street, just below
Wabashaw. There it is that he receives
and disposes of the best carpets, rugs,
curtains, wall papers, and all other similar
goods. He is the great carpet king of the
Northwest, and handles the most of the
business.

SENATE

But one session of the senate was held
yesterday, and that was not productive of
important results. A few bills of local
character were introduced and passed IN
der suspended rules and few moro of the
same character were also passed on the
first reading of house bills.
The reading of the governors message
vetoing the reduction of interest bill on
the ground OF its unconstitutionalitY was
listened to with symptoms of irritation by
the friends of the proviso which caused its
veto, and with an Il told you SO" look of
disgust by those who argued that the pro-
viso was unconstitutional at the time it
was tackled on. An attempt was made to
pass the bill without the proviso under
suspension OF the rules, but the senate
wouldn't have it so, and S enator Clarke's
new bin to that effect vas referred to the
committee on taxes and tax laws.
The senate unanimously voted to attend
the funeral Of the late Senator McLaugh-
lin in a body.
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1883-02-25

Senator Castle moved to strike from the
bill the proviso against which the veto Of
the governor was aimed.
The president ruled that the bill was a
dead bill, and further action could not be
taken upon it under the rules.
Senator Clark, by unanimous consent.
introduced bill providing for the reduc-
ton of the rate of interest on unpaid prin-
cipal due from sale of school lands. A
motion to suspend the rules was defeated.

The bill was then referred to the COM
mittee on taxes and tax laws.
GIVE Us SHARE OF THE BRIDGE MONEY.
Senator Wheat sent up motion in writ
ing that the secretary of the senate be III
structed to prepare a statement of the
amount of money appropriated by the
present legislature for bridge building ont
of the internal improvement fund, and to
what counties said money had been voted.
On motion of Senator Castle the senate
voted to attend in body the funeral of

THE HOUSE.
Adjourned

But one session was held yesterday, that
continuing from 8 a. NJ, until 1:40 p. m.
Early in the session a resolution was adopt
ed that when the house did adjourn it be to
9 a. m. Monday. Just before the adjourn
ment Mr.. Collins endeavored to have this
action reconsidered, saying that to get
through with business and save important
measures from defeat both an afternoon
and evening session was necessary, and
three sessions every day next week. His
motion was antagonized, however, with the
small attendance, and the fact that all the
committees had large amount of business
that had to be done before the house could
act upon it, and also that many members
desired to attend the funeral of the late
Senator Mclaughlin, and so at 1:40 the
house adjourned until 8 a. m, Monday.
The bill of Mr.. Gregory, relating to
sluicing tolls on Snake river, reduces the
fee from ten to six cents.
After the adjournment of the house yes
terday the railroad committee held ses-
sion to consider the only bill before it, the
late Senator McLaughlin's, for p change of
line, which was favOrably reported.
Frank Dayton, sergeant-at arms of the
house, appeared in the chamber for short
time yesterday, for the first time in two
weeks. Mr.. Dayton appeared using
crutches, and was looking very poorly
indeed His old wound, relic of the
war, the re-opening of which has caused
his present trouble, is still sloughing off
small pieces of bone, and to save the
limb it has been determined that the bone
must be thoroughly cleaned of the dis
eased bone, an operation that will soon be
performed by DIR. Hand. Mr.. Dayton has
the kindly sympathy of the members of
the house, as well as large circle of
friends and acquaintance.
The changes made in the names of GER
tain lakes in Washington county, as pro-
posed in the bill introduced by JAS Smith,
are as follows: Long lake, Lake Emma,
Lake DeMonterville and Wood lake, to be
known as The -Four lakes, to be individual |
ly designated as First, Second, Third and
Fourth lakes, spectively.
Mr.. Cornish's bill amending the statutes
of 1878, relating to the selling of game,
adds another section, as follows: cit shall
be lawful to sell and dispose of all kinds
of game from the time allowed by law for
the killing thereof, and up to and
until the 1st day of March
next thereof; provided. that such game
shall have been killed during the time al

large amount of the future income ac-
crued on account of a part of the principal
of this fund. Can this be done without
doing violence to the spirit and intention
of these constitutional restrictions
If it can I can see nothing to pre-
vent the legislature from providing
that the state shall only pay to this fund
on account of interest on the railroad ad-
justment bonds held by its interest at
per centum. or shall not pay any interest
at all.
Could it be claimed that the Legislature
have the right without at least violation
of the spirit of those provisions) to appro-
from the securities held by this fund to
any other purpose than that named IN the
constitution? Could it be claimed that it
has the power without such violation) to
provide that per centum of all interest
hereafter paid on account of these csrtit-
Gates shall be returned to the party paying
the same!
If not, how can it be said that the legis-
lature has the authority to make dona
ton In advance OF such per centums. Is 1t
possible that the state may give away
funds which she has no right to use Tor her
own benefit? That she may intrust funds
she holds, which income when paid, is be-
You'd her control? It seems to me not.
This reasoning of Attorney General
Hahn accords with that of Attorney Gen
eral Wilson on the same subject in 1878.

VETO MESSAGE.
Senator Doran asked if the message re-
turning the bill was the opinion of the
governor or the attorney general.
The president explained that the mes
sage was from the governor, based upon
the opinion and advice of the attorney

Senator Doran said it was in bad taste, |
whether it came from the governor or
not.

should be done with the bill.

Apollo Club Concert.

The approaching concert by the Apollo
Club at the Congregational Church, on the
18th instant, promises to be a musical treat
of more than ordinary merit. The pro-
gramme to be rendered is composed of
music entirely new to Washington au-
dience. and has been assiduously rehearscd
for months past The club will be assisted
by full orchestra of forty pieces, several
of whom have been engaged from Balti-
more at considerable expense. As vocalists
the club will have the valuable services of
Mr.. A. d. Woodruff, a prominent tenor of
New York city, who has been especially
engaged to sing the tenor solos in the club
music, and also of our popular Washington
cantatrice, Mrs. Kaspar, who is so well
known among our people. In view of the
heavy expense entailed by this organiza-
tion in order to give frst.class musical
programme it should meet with the hearty
approval of our citizens by packing the
church to the doors on the 18th instant
The seats are being reserved very rapidly,
and we would advise those who intend to
go to get them early. An advertisement
will be found in another column.

large number of private residences, and at

selves" at an early hour, forcing pedes-
trians to grope their way in Egyptian
darkness. The residents of East Wash
