GOT THEIR GALL.

Republican Proposition to Com
tors.
Representative Republicans of the
state met yesterday in Room 412 of the
Endicott block to discuss the political
outlook, and devise means for securing
some control of the organization of the
legislature. Those in attendance in
cluded:
Gov. Merriam Lieut.. Gov Gideon s. Ives
Senators Tawney, George T. Barr, John Day
Smith and Frank A. Day. ID. NJ. Clough, G.
49, buchanan, Loren Fletcher, Tams Bixby,
Tim Byrnes, f. G. Hay, Capt II. A. Castle,
S. L. Olson. ". 4. Lee. j. j. Howe, G. c.
Winchester, r. &. Thompson, A. j. Greer. K.
G.. Evans John Goodenow, George Knudson,
Nj. d. Taylor, W. w. Rich, Gen. j. Ii. Mullen.
Frank +. Searle.
The proceedings were executive, but
through the usual filtering channels it
is CLEANED that the present position OF
the Republican party in the state was
thoroughly oVerhauled. Loren Fletcher
spoke strongly against the further NOM
inatiOn of unpopular candidates, as did
also Senator Smith and r. q. Evans.
The opinion was expressed by other
gentlemen that the farmers would fall
into line by 1892. The organization was
taken, and as result of the discussion
Senator Tawney, Tim ByrneS and
X. K. Thompson were appointed a
committee to decide upon a plan
of action to be submitted at a
meeting to be held later in the day. At
this meeting the ''pan of action" sub
mitted was that the Republicans should
combine with the Democrats for 0rgani-
zatIon purposes, the combination agree
ment to be that the Republicans should
have the speaker of the house in the
person of Frank E. Searles, of st. Cloud,
and the Democrats TO have their fill of
the elective clerkShipS.

UNIVERSITY EXTENSION.
Work Under the Auspices
of the Academy of Sciences.

The fall session of the university eX-
tension classes, under the auspices of
the st. Paul Academy of Science, has
been very prosperous one, and the
work in it will be closed up tomorrow
evening, by examination in all the
courses. In all 210 students have been
enrolled. These have been divided
among English literature, English his
tory and political science. OF these,
probably thirty will take the eXamina-
tons tomorrow night. This is large
proportion when one considers that the
whole matter of examination is perfect
ly voluntary on the part of the student,
and that only those are admitted to ex-
animation who have done the reading
required and have handed in papers on
questions given at each lecture. Many
of the students are business men and
women who cannot find the time to do
required reading. but who can find time
to spend one evening a week listening
to profitable and entertaining lecture
on their favorite subject. The classes
for the winter term will also be organ
lied tomorrow evening. Prof. ii. p.
JudSon. of the state university, will give
n course on the Nineteenth Century
History of Europe" being full dis
cussion of the factors resulting in the

course in geology supplementary to the
course he gave last spring. There is also
demand for continuation of the work
begun in English literature, and lee
turer will be engaged at once to take
charge of the work i'll that subject. Of
course, much depends on the outcome
of the meeting for organization, as it is

FOR THIS HAVE WE LAW.
Try to Follow the Windings Of the
Mechanics Lien Law.


Mechanics Lien Law.
Judge Kelly filed an order yesterday
in the case OF Blossom Bros. " Merrill
against Amelia Kingsley and others,
which reviewed the law upon mechan-
ics' liens. In order to full understand
ing of the case, it is we'll to state that
prior to the October of 1889 the law
gave priority to mechanics liens in the
order in which material was furnished
or work begun.
In July. 1889. Samuel Hoover agreed
TO sell Julius Kingsley certain lands for
1880, upon payments There was
contract of sale drawn up and signed,
by which $1,000 of the purchase price
was to be paid in two years, which was
to be secured by mortgage. Kingsley
took possession of the lands under the
contract, and erected two houses on the
land. constructed OH tie same plan and
at the same time.
Blossom Bros. d Merrill sold material
for constructing the houses. Part of
the material was furnished before Oct.
l, 1889, and part in 1890. Enoch Cad
boiS also furnished materials prior to
Oct. /, 1889, and III 1890, as also did
Hewson d Seaman and the }. G. Hanley
Lime company. Karl Myhre worked on
the buildings in 1889 and 1890. E. An
derson did work as a plasterer in 1889
and 1890. Kingsley and wife gave
Hoover two mortgages on the premises,
dated July 10, 1889, but acknowledged
Oct. IA, 1889. They also gave mortgage
to W. E. Lucas Oct. 5, 1889. to secure
$1,000. Lucas assigned his mortgage to
A. IL. Porter.
The lien claimants are unable to sep
arate the amount of work done and ma
terial furnished upon each house. but
the amount done and furnished on each
was in about equal proportions.
AS conclusions of law Hewson &
Seaman are given Judgment for S644.50,
which is first lien upon each house in
equal portions.
Karl Meyhre is given second lien
for S97.25 in equal proportions upon
each house.
Enoch Gadbois is given third lien
for S1344S upon each house in equal
proportions.
The two mortgages owned by Porter
are liens subsequent to the above liens.
The mortgages TO cover are also de-
cared to be liens subordinate to all of
the foregoing.
Blossom Bros. & Merrill are given
subsequent lien to all the above for
$95.71. Emanuel Anderson is given
lien for $3.50, which is of equal dignity
with that of Blossom Bros. q Merrill.
The j. e. Hanly Land company is not
entitled to relief.
The sheriff is directed to sell the land
and buildings and satisfy the liens in
the order named.

Further Reduction in Second
Class Fare to Chicago.
BosToN. Jan. 3.-To day the Boston &
Maine makes further reduction of rs
cents in second class fare from Boston
to Chicago. Tine Boston & Maine still
adhere to their old position that they
are entitled to Sl25 different ial over
the Fitchburg on the second class pas
senger business which they send west
via Montreal or Norwood. The Fitch
burg stoutly maintains that the Boston
& Maine is entitled to differential of
only so cents on such business, and
every time the Boston & Maine has
dropped its tariff to Chicago by IS cents
the Fitchburg has come down to within
SO cents of its figures. This latest re-
duction of the Boston e. Maine makes
the second class fare from Boston to
Chicago $11.75.
