ST PAUL, March2.r-There was gen

and democratic senators Saturday which
might have ended In fist tight had not
Senator Smith, Of Minneapolis, got In an
opportune motion to adjourn. The
question under discussion was the inter
est bill repeating the old usury law,
which worked forfeiture OF both princi-
pal and interest, and substituting n
measure which forfelts only the interest.
During the discussion Senator Donneliy
arose In his wrath and boldly stated that
the money lenders lobbyists were on the
hoor OF the senate, and that the "blind
pigs" In Minneapolis and ST. Paul we're
as nothing compared with the
"blind pigs on the floor OF
the senate, which these lobbyists
seem 10 have under their control
Senator Craven, democrat warmly re-
sented Mr.. Donnelly's charges. He said.
"At the beginning OF this session MIR.
Donnelly, the alliance leader, came 10
the democrats and begged Us to go I'm
and organize the senate. We went with
him, and In return he is sending broad
cast over the state and to our constitu-
ents statements TO the effect that we are
voting against their interests. He cracks
the party whip, and because we do not
fall into line and vote rs he wants be
denounces US as bought by the lobby
lists"
That Is not true, 4" said Senator Sevat-
son, excitedly. The senator from Da-
kota was forced into the combine. There
was a man here who threatened him
with dire results II he refused"
Mr.. Donnelly shouted: II have seen
lobbyists squatting at the ears Of sena-
tors as Satan In the form OF a toad
squatted at the ear OF Eve in paradise"
The senate was instantly in an uproar,
with Lieut.. Gov. Ives pounding furiously
with his gavel for order. Finally the
democrats and republicans united IN
securing an adjournment.

OUT ON BAIL.
Mrs. shsedv, the Wife of the Murdered
Lincoln sport, Cannot Bc Longer Held.

LINCOLN, March 2-The ATTORNEYS for
Mrs. Sheedy appeared before Judge
Field In district court Saturday morning,
and argued their clients motion for ad-
mission TO bail. A host of authorities
were cited TO show that where a person
Is accused OF treason or murder, and the
evidence was insufficient and the pre-
sumption Of guilt not great, the accused
should be admitted 10 ball. In this case
the only evidence against the prisoner Is
the confession" of the negro, McFar-
land, and a suspicion that John Sheedy
was poisoned. There has never been
any evidence TO indicate that John Sheedy
was poisoned, other than the statement
OF the physicians who made the autopsy,
that the blow inflicted by Mcfarland did
not produce death.
The county attorney in reply admitted
that he had no evidence upon which TO
file an Information other than McFar-
lands confession, and would no. have
until the chemical analysis OF Mr.
l6Aoady's stomach he'd been received
Judge Field listened TO the arguments
upon the motion for admission To bail
and said he would take the case under
advisement In addition 10 this he said
he felt inclined In this case To- admit the
prisoner to bail. The attorneys are con-
fdent that Mrs. Sheedy will be released
on ball, and the general public share the
feeling. gentleman who has followed
up this case closely said:
III Mrs. Sheedy can be held without
ball on the strength OF the evidence
against her any man or woman can be
arrested on suspicion and held without
bail while the authorities are manufae-
turing evidence. The negro's confession
will not be admitted as evidence, and be-
yond that there is nothing against Mrs.
Sheedy but suspicion"

And reapportionment. what will be-
come OF that? 1t would be too bad to
cut of South Dakota's crop OF politicians
thus I'm the bud, for IL must be remem-
bered that South Dakota is only 2-year-
old, To cut of l24 embryo congressman
and ~ senator's, that would be too bad
IL only costs the people from $50, 900 TO
sl00, 900 trip to run them. but then we
must stand by the people. The best
that the committees have been able TO
reach on this question so far Is TO leave
the senate as IL Is with forty-iiye mem
bers and reduce the house from I24 to
about so, and Ii is doubtful II bill with
this much saving can be arranged so il
will pass. But IL must b. remembered
that South Dakota Is both big aud a
great state.
The Australian ballot will probably
become law. Some parts OF the state
are so virtuous that they think they
don't need II. but there is no denying
that on the whole II wonld be giving the
voter a better chance and would be far
more creditable to the state and better
for It's system Of free government than
the present system.
There are some questions that will
not down, and women suffrage in this
state seems To be one OF them. Senator
Crawford has introduced In the senate a
bill giving women the right TO vote In
cities Of the first and second class upon
questions relating TO the public schools,
public bonds and tax levy From reli-
able sources the opinion Is gained that
the bill does not stand that famous
