Labor LezisIarion.

To the Editor CT the Globe:
Your issue Of this day contains the fol-
lowing in answer TO an inquiry regarding
Minnesota labor legislation:
No bills of the nature mentioned have ever
passed the Minnesota legislature. During the
last session Senator Truax introduced q bill
providing for arbitration In cases Of difficulty
between employers and employees, but it was
indefinitely postponed
During the same session. a bill intended 10
abolish contract labor at the state prison met
with a like fate, on motion Of c. II. Lineau.
Your statements are incorrect. / voted
for the bill to abolish contract labor at the
state prison; even made speech In favor
of it, The journal Of the house OF repre-
sentatiyes will show you how l voted.
The arbitration bill above mentioned
was passed in the senate. and
ON my motion indefinitely postponed
in the house. 1t was brought into the house
on the last night of the session-late in the
evening. There was no chance for amend
ing the bill, much less 10 consider its merits.
Although | am heartily IN favor of arbitra-
ton between employers and employees,
could not favor bill that appeared 70 me
TO be at least a one-sided affair. The house
thought as l did and voted IL down unani-
mOusly. If the gentleman who had charge
of the bill had brought it in due time before
the house, it would have received due con-
sideration, would have been duly amended
and passed without a doubt. A matter OF
so much importance should be thoroughly
investigated. and not be crowded through
| in the last hours of a session. AS l said
before. am heartily in favor OF an arbitra-
ton law that will protect all interests.

plated. It would compromise matters.
Mr.. McClurg said no one understood the
ordinances or read them. He therefore
made a motion that the matter be post
poned until next Monday. Mr.. Drake
offered the following as an amendment:
THAT the city council and board Of public
works be requested 10 take immediate steps
10 designate the land 10 be occupied by the
Minnesota e. Northwestern railroad on tho
West st. Paul levee and when such designa-
ton is made that they require immediate &c
ton on the part of the railroad 10 have the
levee constructed
This was adopted.
THE DIAMOND 10 LINE.
The secretary of the chamber made re-
port TO the effect that the executive COM
mittee recommends first. that no part of the
levee be granted TO the Diamond 10 line or
other corporations, or TO individuals for any
purpose whatever; second. that the city au-
thorities be requested to build such docks
and warehouses as may be necessary to
transact the business and charge such
wharfage rates as may be sufficient TO pay
interest on the cost of the same with the
expense Of repairs thereof; third. that Sec
ond street be opened from Sibley street to
its present eastern terminus In order to af-
ford another outlet from the union depot
according to the map submitted with the
report That part of the report referring
to the Diamond 10 line was adopted and
the council requested not 10 consummate
any agreement with that line for the use Of
any part of the leyee. The rest of the re-
port will be considered hereafter.
GEN. HANCOCK.
The following resolutions were offered
by Mr.. Drake and adopted by rising vote:

of the city of st. Paul desire 70 give public

stoned by the death of the gallant soldier and
