BILLS INTRODUCED.
A State Board of Pardons.

A bill was introduced to establish a
state board of pardons. There are to be
four members, two of either political
party, appointed by the governor. All APP
plications for pardon will be considered
by this board, who make their recon-
mendations to the governor.
Senator Edwards brought out a bill
providing that no title to land shall be
affected by reason of it having passed
from the hands of aliens.
Senator Sampson made modest re-
quest. He asks for the appropriation
of S25, 600 for drainage purposes in Will
kin, Clay, Norman. Polk, Marshall and
Kittson counties. State and other lands
are to be drained, money also being
contributed by the Manitoba road.

Increase. While the Southern
Counties Get in the Soup.
There are grave doubts in the minds
of legislators as to whether anything
will be done by the present session in
the way of reapportionment. The sub
committee appointed to take up this
question are enthusiastic that something
will be done, and have gone ahead in
the matter. They will bring be-
fore the joint committees of the
senate and the house to-day, scheme
of re-apportintment based upon MEM
bership of 81 in the senate and l04 in
the house. Under this scheme the fol-
lowing districts will lose representa-
tives: Houston, l; Fillmore, 8; Mower.
L: Faribault, L: Blue Earth, L; Ohm
sted, L; Rice, 2; Washington, l; Waba-
sha, 2: Carver, l; Stearns, l. Among
the gains there will be senators and 3
representatives for Ramsey, and sena-
tors and representatives for Rennepln.
Isanti and Anoka are to be made
separate districts and gain one repre-
sentative and one senator. St. Louis
gets four representatives and there is
general increase in the whole of the
northern part of the state. The reap
portionment is based on equity.

CROSSFIELD WINS.

Representative Crossfeld gained a
notable victory yesterday in securing
the house committee of the whole to
recommend the passage of the follow
ing bill:
"That section seventy-fve (75) of
chapter thirty-siX (36) of the general
Statutes of 1878, as amended by section
one % of chapter forty-one (41) General
Laws, 1887, be further amended so that
down to the first proviso contained in
said laws of 1887 it shall read as fol-
lows: Section 75-The state superin-
tendent of public instruction
shall make an apportionment
of the available current school
funds in the state treasury, among the
several counties in the state, on the first
Monday in March and the first Monday
in October of each year, in proportion
to the number of scholars between the
ages of five ~ and twenty-one (2Dyears
who have been enrolled and have been
in attendance twenty (20) days in the
public schools, that have had at least
four ~ months of term, within the
year, by a qualified teacher, and have
reported in accordance with the follow
ing provisions"
The measure is in the direct interest
of the frontier schools and those locali-
ties where the cause of education needs
peculiar encouragement. Messrs.
Brush, Dunn and Fleming warmly
championed the bill, and although it
was fought by John Day Smith and
others, it went on to the calendar for
to-day.
Supt. Kiehle is now in Washington,
but yesterday the following document,
signed by him, was made public: "My
objections to the Crossfield bill, House
File No. 414, are:

fixed salary and turn the surplus fees
into the treasury came up before the
committee of the whole. Senator Day
pointed out the advisability of this step,
especially if the abolition of the oil in
spector could not be secured at this
time. Senator Bowen. however, was
opposed to the bill, because it
was feeble reform. 1t would
make the oil inspectorship less odiouS,
and thus perpetuate a shameful hum
bug. 1t was disgrace to the state to
admit upon the floor OF the senate that
they could not abolish this office; that
they were controlled by parties who
stood in the lobby to defeat any such
bill. There was nothing in this in
spection of oils which was of any bene-
fit whatever to the people. The entire
object of the law was simply to manu-
factuEe fees.
The bill was eventually favorably re-
ported.
