An informal debate growing out of the
best methods to be applied in pushing
labor legislation this winter, drew out some
practical illustrations Of the evils
of the garnishee law, particularly
among those dependant on the
earnings of the wOrkingmen. 1t was the
opinion of the assembly that Minnesota,
like Indiana and two or three other of the
Western states. should abolish the law, or
by wise and equitable amendments correct
its evils and abuses. Some talk
and suggestions arose over the means
to prevent the immigration of pau
per foreigners to Minnesota by
the agents of the steamship lines. These
poor people are led to believe they are com
ing to a land OF milk and honey, but find
that living, without some capital, is
harder to obtain in Minnesota than Sweden.

GeIting Even Wi,h Georgia Judge

Dahlonega (Ga.) Sentinel.
Judge Jim Brown is one of the sharpest
and smartest men on the bench in Georgia
but if reports were true he was certainly
trapped for once short time ago. The re-
port goes that some years ago young man
was convicted before Judge Brown of sell
ing whisky, and that the judge stuck a
heavy sentence to him. The young fellow.
whose name we could not learn, served his
time out and resolved to himself to get even
with the Judge.
At the Elijay court while back. the
young man went TO the judge and asked
him if he didn't want some good blockade
whisky. The judges face lighted up with
smiles, and with prOfuse thanks he re-
piled Yes" Along with the Judge the
man travelled on a short distance and
pointed out small key of the juice close
by. The judge picked it up and rendered
to the young man pay for it. This was
refused. With a ''side-wiping'' stroke the
public eXpOunder of the laws had it Sc
GREETED under his long-tailed coat. and
marched to town, when he gently placed
it in his room.
In ten minutes time the man Swore out
a warrant for Judge Brown for removing
and cOncealing blockade whisky. This is
the report brought here by a man, and
whether it is true or not we are unable
to tell.

The plan for new law regulating the
cleaning of sidewalks in winter. which is
being agitated by City Attorney Murray
and others will, if accomplished. give en-
nloyment to a large number of labOrers
r. is proposed to adopt the Milwaukee plan
which is for the city to employ a gang of
men to clear off all crossings as soon as
snow ceases to fall. The next day the
same men clean all sidewalks not
already cleaned by others, the cost
being charged up in the tax levy OF the next
Ear. This brings the burden of keeping
fhe walks clear on property owners, and
means that sidewalks in front of vacant
lots shall be cleared as well as those in front
of occupied property. In the meantime
however. the city engineer. who has the
authority to clear walks at the city expense.
might institute measures to have walks pas
sable during the carnival instead OF IN the
uncomfortable condition of last year. In
This way also employment would be given
IN many needy labOrerS.

An Independent Engine

Chicago Herald.
Talking about peculiar railway acct
dents" said Mr.. Ward. of the Allen Paper
Car Wheel company. II want to tell you
of an accident which happened up in Wis
consin some years ago on the ST. Paul
road. A passenger train was running
along one day when the conductor, who
was sitting next a window, happened to
glance out, and he started up with cry of
amaZement:
My God! there's locomotive in the
ditch
Just then he noticed that the speed of
his train was slackened. and gently it came
to stop. The conductor looked ahead
and saw that there was no engine on his
train. He ran back and saw that the loco
motive in the ditch was the one that had a
few moments before been pulling his train
1t had jumped the track, broken its coup
lings and gone INTO the ditch with
out making so much as a jar.
1t had cleared the track so COM
pletely that the train had passed by it.
This is explainable in this way: The mo-
ment the engine left the rails 1t was under
full steam and momentum. As it broke
from the baggage car next to it it shot
ahead with fearful force. At the same in
slant the air brakes were set by the rupture
of the pipe coupling and the trains speed
began to slacken. 1t is easy to see how it
is all DONE but don't believe that such a
thing ever occurred before OF will ever
occur again."
