Ignatius Donnelly Wants An
other Term in the State
Legislature.

The primaries for the election of del
egates to the county convention of to-
day passed off in quiet, harmonious
and amicable manner. There were
good-natured contests in all of the
wards, and many of the candidates sur
priSed their friends by the run which
they made. No bad feeling was engen-
dered anywhere, and from present indi-
cations there will be but one contest to
settle. w. E. Burton, who was defeated
by the Nelson delegates in the Seventh
ward, claims that the ward was carried
by illegal means, as forty graders, who
were non-residentS of the ward, cast
their votes for the Nelson delegates.
The following are the candidates for
the various offices, who were represent
ed, either directly or indirectly, at the
primaries last evening:
County Auditor-M +. Kahn and j. E. Ma
guire.
Sherif-Geo. Moeller, Capt Hanft, Tom
Caulfeld and A. W. Wentick.
Register of Deeds-P. j. Giesen, W. A. Van
Slyke, II. P. Hall and John McCauley.
Treasurer-W. L. Burton, A. n. Nelson
and Aft Palmquist.
County AtoTney-J. J. Egan.
CorOner-Drs. Markoe aud Kelly.
Judge of Probate-R. A. Walsh and E.
Stone German.
Suryeyor-H. s. Potts
County CommiSsioners-P r. Mcdonald
George Mitsch. Charles Leidman, NJ. j.
DAILY, W. q. Strickland, l.. d. Wilkes, Will
lam Rodgers, Nick Honling, Daniel Kelly,
John Keuns, Joseph Austed. Lorenzo Hoyt
William Leip and E. Reaney.
The legislative ticket will be nomi-
mated from the body of the convention
to-day, and present indications show
that the ticket will be an unusually
strong one.
The struggle for the coveted nominal
ton for sheriff was the most holly con-
tested and exciting fight of the evening,
George Moeller and Capt. Hanft each
making desperate effort, while Wen
tick was close behind them. The con-
test for register of deeds was also close,
and each candidate will go into the con-
ventiOn with a good following. The
primaries, however, passed off without
a blemish upon their surface. There is
not the slightest ground for sus-
piciOn that the convention of to-
day is a cut and dried affair, such
as was attempted by the Republicans on
Monday. and the best men will win. and
a strong ticket will be placed in the
field,

A ROARD OF PARDONS.
Suggestions by Secretary Hart
Regarding Criminals.

AAOfSeAk Il
Secretary Hart, of the state board OF
corrections and charities, has addressed
a letter to the board of inspectors of the
Minnesota state p ison with reference
to the establishment of board OF par
don for Minnesota. Mr.. Hart reports
that the states of Connecticut, New Jer-
sew, Ohio and Massachusetts have boards
of pardon: and in the states of New
York, Ohio, Massachusetts, PennSyl-
Vania, Minnesota and Kansas there are
laws providing for the conditional re-
lease of persons from refOrmatOry prlS-
Ons bv the managers of such prisons.
A parole is a different thing from par
don. with reference to board OF
pardon for this state" says Mr. Hart,
''my views coincide with those eX-
pressed by Warden StOrdOck in recent
convention. In my judgment the Min
nesota board of pardon should consist
of four members, with the governor as
chairman eX-Otficio. The law should
provide that not more than half of the
board should be members of the same
political party. think that the board
should contain two lawyers. and per-
hapS one physician. The appointments
should be made in such way as to Sc
cure fit men and
EXCLUDE POLITICAL INFLUENCES.
The board should have competent
clerk, authority to call for witnesses
and papers. hold quarterly meetings,
power to regulate its own method OF
procedure and a sufficient allowance for
witnesses fees and necessary expenses.
The work of Il board of pardon would
be greatly diminished by the adoption,
in this state, of the Ohio parole law.
The parole system is already provided
for at the st. Cloud refOrmatory; but IN
Ohio the same system has been extend
ed to first offenders in the state prison.
1t is similar to the ticket-Of-leave syS-
TEN. which h been so effective in
Great Britain. In my Judgment, we are
now ready for the parole system III our
state prison for prisoners serving their
first sentence. If we do not now
adopt law similar to that
of Massachusetts for Furnishing
habitual criminals we shall soon be
forced to do so, for the reason that the
adoption of such laws in other states
will drive criminals out of those states
not serving two sentences, and into this
states. where such does not exist. In
this connection, would urge the adOp-
ton of the BertillOn system OF lden-
tifying criminals. We need it for
the protection of our own state, and we
ought to adopt it as means of aiding
Nher states to protect themselves.

EDUCATIONAL TAXES.
Auditor Braden Explains the Dis
position of the Fund.


State Auditor Braden has furnished
Aid. Sanborn information respecting
the one-mill school tax levied by the
legislature of 1857. Aid. SahbOrn stated
at the council meetieg recently that I'M
der this law the state took from Ramsey
county S177,0OO and merely returned
fourth of that sum, and he did not know
how the balance was disposed of. Col
Braden's explanation is that the
Legislature of 1887 levied a one
mill tax for educational purposes.
This tax is collected and distributed pro
rata, so much to each scholar throughout
the whole state. 1t is intended to
equailize the operations of the revenue
expended for the support of the state
university, Normal schools and fifty
two High schools. These schools,
fostered by direct taxation, are located
at populOus, wealthy centers. Citizens
living remote therefrOm receive only
indirect benefit, because in order to
avail themselves of direct benefit they
would incur considerable expense in
sending their children to attend any of
the institutions. The one-mill tax was
intended to draw money from the pOpu-
lous and wealthy and distribute it
among the sparSely settled and less
wealthy localities Tor the suStenance OF
educational facilities,

the relative strength which his name

fully strengthen Eugene Wilson in the
