LAST OF THE MEAT LAW.

Minnesota's Measure Knocked Out by the
United States Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, May 19.-The supreme
court of the United States rendered de-
cision in the case of the State of Mime
sofa, appellant, VS.. Henry f. Barber, the
famous dressed beef" case The court
affir1ns the decision of the lower court,
declaring the dressed beef law uncon.
stitutional, and discharging the appellee
from custody. Barber was convicted
before a justice of the peace in Ramsey
county, Minnesota, of having wrong
fully and unlawfully offered and ex-
posed for sale, and of having sold some
fresh beef, part of an animal slaughtered
in Illinois, but not inspected in Mime
sofa and certified" before slaughter as
required by the statute of Minnesota.
Barber sued out a writ Of habeas corpus
ON the ground that the statute was re-
pugnant to the provision of the constitu-
ton giving congress- power t.. regnlate
commerce between the states, as wen as
to the provisions declaring that citizens
of each state shall be entitled
to privileges and immunities of
citizens in the several states. The lower
court held the statute to be in violation
of both these provisions. In the decision
handed down by Justice Harlan the OBJ
noxious statute is quoted at length. The
presumption that it was enacted in good
faith. to protect the health of the people
of Minnesota, the court says, cannot
control the question of constitutionality.
The court holds that this statute
makes discrimination against the pro-
ducts and business of other states in ia
vor of the products and business of Min
nesota. IF this legislation does not
make such discrimination it would be
difficult to enact legislation which would
have such result" says the court.

Oxnard claims that this country is

HE DEFRAUDED THE LADIES.


How a Handsome Young Man Made Money
in st. Paul---He's Gone Now.
ST. PAUL, May 20.-A handsome young
man by the name of Frank j. Dean
came here about month ago and ad-
vertised for talented lady amateur to
play leading role in a new drama. He
received large number of calls from
ladies who We're anxious to become stars
in the theatrical world. One day last
week Mr.. Dean paid his hotel bills and
left the city. Soon afterwards num-
Der of the fair callers made other visits
and anxiously inquired for Dean, but he
had gone. It seems that Mr.. Dean, upon
engaging any one of these ladies for his
star, would ask for money to enable him
to procure Autograph of his fair visitor
to be used in professional way. 1t is
thought that Dean secured quite large
sum, for from few of the ladies he ac-
cepted jewelry and everything that
might readily be converted into money.
Each lady requested that her name be
not mentioned, and the scoundrel Dean
will probably never be brought to JUS
tice.

Annum-State Control of Liquor

WASHINGTON, May 21.-Mr. Stanford
introduced in the senate bill intended
to carry out the idea outlined in his res
olution presented some time ago. The
bill provides for the establishment in the
treasury department of land bureau
with chief at $1,000 year, and an
assistant at $1,000 year to be appointed
by the president, The treasurer is to
cause to be printed, signed and ready
for issue circular notes of the denomina-
ton of S., $40, $50, $50, 800, $500 and
81 900 to the amount of $100, 000, 900,
which shall be legal tender with gold
and silver coin for like amounts, and
these notes are to be held in the treas
ury to the credit of the land loan bureau
until issued in accordance with the pro-
vision of this bill. Every person who is
a citizen or who has declared his inten-
ton to become a citizen and who is the
owner in fee of unincumbered agricul-
tural land may file with the bureau an
application for loan to be secured by
lien on the land. The note is not to
exceed
ONE-HALF THE ASSESSED VALUE.
of the land, and no loan is to be for less
than $3.50 or to run for more than
twenty years. A copy of the application
for loan is to be filed with the recorder
of the deeds of the county or the coun-
ties of the state or territory in which the
land is situated, and it shall constitute a
lien on the property. The applicant for
loan is to deposit sum to be pre-
scribed by the chief of the bureau, suf6.
cient to pay the costs of the examination
of the title, inspection and appraisement
of the land, and this work is to be done
by persons in their respective counties to
be designated by the chief the bureau.
When the chief is satisfied of the char.
acter of the security, he is to transmit to
the proper officer of the treasury depart
ment an order directing the payment OF
the money to be loaned, the amount tc
remain subject to the order of the ap
plicant, who may draw it from time tc
time by check or draft. If the chief
finds on investigation that this is an ex.
listing lien on the property
of less than the amount of the loan asked
of the bureau and warranted by law, the
loan may be made, but the existing lien
is. to be discharged, and the amount OF
it deducted from the loan made by the
government. The bureau loans are tC
pay 2-per cent. interest, and to be paya-
BILE annually.
