THIRD INSANE HOSPITAL.
Fergus Falls Awarded the Location
BY the commissioners.

The commissioners appointed to locate the
third hospital for the insane held a meeting
at Secretary Harris Office yesterday. The full
commission was present, consisting of DR.. c.
K. Bartlett, St. Peter, chairman: F. S. Chris
tiansen, Rush City; r. B. LangdOn. Minneap-
oils; H. G. Stordock. Rathsay, and FL. H.
Hart, St. Paul. After considerable discus
sion of the fferent sites offered, the COM
mission decided by vote of to l to locate
the hospital at Fergus Falls, Mr.. Christensen
voting for Alexandria. The commission was
authorized to recommend plans, and a sub
committee, consisting of DR.. Bartlett, Messrs.
Christensen and Hart, will meet to-day to
consider them.
Secretary Hart gave as the reasons for Sc
lecting Fergus Falls that the location would
Accommodate the northwestern part of the
state and the Red river valley; that Fergus
Falls was regarded as a growing town and
likely to become u large City, and the proba-.
bility of the establishment in few years of
a fourth hospital near St. Paul or Minneapo-
lis. The site selected at Fergus Falls lies
just north of the city and embraces 9l6
acres including the fair grounds and lake,
and adjoining the county poor farm. 1t is
offered to the state for S31, 40. Within the
property is lake and the railroad touches
the corner, so that switch accommodations
can be secured. The commission will proba-
bly, recommend purchasing the whole site.
THE OTHERS DON'T LIKE 1T.
The action Of the commission locating the
site for the third hospital for the insane at
Fergus Falls is regarded by Senator Henry
Kellar, of Alexandria; r preventative II. W.
Wilson, of Alexandria, and Secretary of State
Fred Won Baumbach, whose residence is also
at Alexandria, as a put-up job. Mr.. Kel
lar IS of the opinion that the commission
might have suggested that Fergus would get
it long ago without putting the Sank Centre,
Alexandria and Braiuerd delegations to the
trouble and expense of frequent conferences.
Sank Centres proposition, he claims, could
not be beat; that it was the most economical
and best fitted location for the asylum, and it
lastly proposed to pump $4,000 gallons of
water per day and lay the water
service pipes for the institution
for only $500 per year. 'Stordock,'' ne says,
s'did not look over the site al Sank Centre
fairly, and then had the effrontery to say that
if there were two votes for Alexandria he
would go up there and look over the
ground"
/ Mr. Wilson said: IF Sank Centre had
offered to build the asylum at its own ex-
pense of half a million dollars, to furnish all
maintenance free, and float all refuse into
the Mississippi river and the Gulf OF Mexico,
Sank Centre could not have got the location"
He says Mr. Christensen will present a mi
nority report to the legislature, and show up
as it was seen which way the wind blew, ev-
erybody left the capitol. Secretary Won
Baumbach claims that Mr.. StOrdock wanted
Christensen to make the vote for Fergus
unanimous, but that gentleman refused.

RICE WONT TELL
Who Have Been Chosen for Senate
Chairmanships.

Lieut.. Gov.-Elect A E. Rice, of Willmar,
wrote his name on the Merchants register
yesterday. He says he knows who are to be
the chairmen of the judiciary, railroad and
finance committees, but he wont tell. Senator
Ives, of St. Peter, was asked if he was TO be
the chairman of the judiciary committee. He
modestly replied that he did not think he
would. There are only four lawyers IN the
senate-Messrs. Goodrich, of Blue Earth
City: Comstock, of Moorhead: Eaton. of
Monticello. and Ives OF St. Peter. Mr.. Rice
was quizzed about the possibility of selec-
ton being made cut of these, but he replied
nay, that he would reverse matters this time
and would give such offices to the farmers.
Mr.. Ives thinks there may be great deal of
hard work done by the coming Legislature
and many important bills acted upon, and he
adds: 1.-THE farmers have not secured an
influence in the legislature for nothing"

Judge E. Fl. Wood yesterday decided to
withdraw from his contest with W. r. Mer-

further. He last night gave the GLOBE a
statement Of his reasons for doing this, in
which he says:

convention every time. Secondly he is

for the past twelve years in spite OF the

been hurled at him by white and black

The republican papers are stopping
over in abusing the Knights of Labor
and S. G.. ISett on the democratic ticket
for Lieutenant-Go Governor, because he
belongs to them. But when that or any
other paper charges the order with be-
ing anarchists, or in sympathy with
them, it utters what is known to be
eliminating falsehOOd. Anarchists have
repeatedly themselves declared hostility
to it, because of its refusal to endorse
them on that extreme, and now the tool
of monopolies, the republican party, be-
cause it does the same with them on
the other, isrushing to madness with its
scurrillity and dirt. We are indeed
proud that democracy has shown enough
sympathy for labor to command the re-
spect of this noble order, whose sole as
pirations are to alleviate the condition
