Freeman P. Understanding to my
idea, the reapportionment should give a
legislature of 1853 members-52 senators
and Ill members of the house.
Soldiers Home ITmate-We are most
grateful to Commander McMullin for

to A. M. Smith for a liberal supply of
wine.
Superintendent of the Poor Curtiss-
Ii we could only have weather like this
Ri winter the poor would have COM
paratively easy time of it.
Sergt. Leonard-It would not be a
bl,l thing if the report that Jack, the

sumo of the First street women out Of

Vim Brackett-I do not desire to say
anything as to whether l have been
offered the position of superintendent

Judge Bailey-Do you know, it is rare
that the same person is ever before me
more than once or twice on charge of
drunkenness.
E. j. Rose-1 am thinking seriously of
getting patent on my knights Tour
puzzle. 1t is far ahead of the Is, Ii, Is

The COMING SENATOR
And the Fight to Make Washburn the
Man..
LOCAL LEGISLATIVE BILLS.
Necessity Of Relieving the Pressure =,
the Courts---The Reapp6rtion-
ment Puzzle.

The statement IS made by the sup
porters of cen. w. d. Washburn for
senatoE that he is gaining strength in
Hennepin county. This-is singular adj
mission from the lips of men who have
always claimed the Hennepin delega-
ton was a unit for the brass kettle
statesman. They insisted he would le-
ceive fourteen votes from Minneapolis,
which would include that of Senator Os-
valid, a Democrat. as it is conceded that
he, in the absence OF any party
chance, would support Washburn, as
they were associated together in rail-
road enterprises; but those on the in
side are positive that when the time
comes the Washburn forces will be
aghast at the dissenslon right at home.
A prominent Washburn supporter, him
self member of the house. said yester-
day that he could only count eleven
votes, which excluded those OF
Freeman P. Lane, George W. Savage
and Senator Oswald, while another and
equally prominent member, counted
FIVE votes against Washburn and in
cluded Love, Davenport, Hanke, Say
age and Hay. 1t seems that if Hay was
originally against WaShburn he has
come over, ana is now making SHoIt
tours through the state in his in
tereSt. 1t is also said that Hay
has a sure thing in the district
attorneyship. Where Ed Davenport
stands is difficult to say. He talks for
Washburn, but it is generally believed
he will turn up on the other side of the
fence at the right time. Lanes posi-
ton is equally unknown. He himself
puts it this way:
II am pledged to nobody and that is
the position L shall always occupy. |
will vote for the best man and the right
man, you can bet your life"
Henry Downs is the most pronounced
Washburn man in the delegation, and
Sever Ellingsen, though equally sure,
is less effective. John Day Smith is
claimed on all hands, but is probably
for Washburn. The opposition to
Washburn seems to be doing pretty ef-
fective work without showing its hand,
and that rising young statesman, Sam
uel Hill, seems the head and front of
the movement. There is vague talk of
Langdon, Pilisbury and Fletcher, but
where that illustrious trio stands and
what it will do are unknown quantities.

POLITICS INTERPRETING
With Measures to Relieve the Dis
trict Court Pressure.

The necessity for relieving the press
ure of business at the local courts by
increasing the number of judges, or re-
ducing the district. OF both, is forcing
itself upon the attention OF the mem
bers of the legislature. Politics and
perhaps little local feeling between
the Twin Cities are all that stand in
the way of an easy solution of
the difficulty. There is not the
mereSt shadow of an excuse for any
longer lacking the counties OF Wright.
AnOka and Isanti to this district. Since
the last election there is even no politi-
cal excuse. Those three counties desire
the divorce, and the legislature should
grant it. Their reaSOn-or one reason-
is that Hennepin overshadows them,
and they are absolutely pOWerleSS in the
naming of any one OF the judges. Min
neapolis politicians are anxious to keep
them in the district to increase
the offices to be filled from
this county, and that is the one
underlying reason. 1t is said that GER
tain st. Paul men, desiring to see the
number of judges equal in each city,
will support no bill that gives Mlnne-
apolis an extra judge unless st. Paul
also gets one, and that this feeling is a
bar to getting the necessary enactment.
but this is probably without much foun--
dation in fact. \ bill will be introduced
giving Minneapolis an extra judge and
cutting off Wright, Anoka and Isanti
counties, and a lively time over it is an
ticipated.

A FIFTEEN PUZZLE.
How to Redistrict Hennepin and
Give the Democrats Nothing.


Give the Democrats Nothing.
When the matter of reapportionment
comes up, the Henncpin delegation will
have an opportunity of displaying its
finesse. There are two complete sena-
torial districts and part OF a third in
Hennepln county. The Twenty-ninth
and Thirtieth districts divide that por-
ton west of Minneapolis, and the
Twenty-eighth includes the territory
east of the river and the counties
of Anoka and Isanti. Anoka is espec-
tally anxious to break this bond, and
Isanti only less so, but the loss OF these
counties means the loss OF the Repub-
lican vote that controls that district.
Under ordinary circumstances, East
Hennepin gives good Democratic ma
iorirv, and the Thirtieth district will do
the same on Off years, while the IWen-
ty-ninth is reliably Republican. The
Republicans will do some tall figuring
and slicing to secure thee districts iii the
county and keep them all Republican.
On the basis of the recent vote that
would be not difficult matter, but the
most sanguine Republican will scarcely
admit that that vote represented his
party'S normal strength. In two years
the slide is liable to be the
other way. Where to draw tie
dividing lines is the pulling
cGiundrum. Several members favor
massing of the Democratic strength of
the north end, on both sides of the river,
into one district, which will be Demo
cratic, and then dispose of the balance
to make two reliable Republican dis
trictS, but this is opposed by those who
will make a desperate struggle to so
scheme as to get all three.
