Discri minatiOn

The house judiciary committee last even
ing discussed the Bell bill regulating mutual
building associations. The bill proposes to
place these associations under the super
vision of the state public examiner Attorney
Williams. representing local associations, op-
posed the bill, claiming that it would work
harshly upon the members, who were largely
drawn from the working class. He stated
that 30 per cent of the mutual building asso-
Citations were confined 10 Ramsey county, u
per cent to Hennepin; the remainder were
scattered throughout the state. Mr.. Bell
proposed an amendment continuing the oper-
ations of the bill to cities OF 10000 popula-
ton and over. K. A. Walsh ridiculed the
amendment. Ii the bill was good one it
should be applied to the state as whole.
What reason was there to require mutual
building associations in st. Paul, Minneapo-
lis, Duluth, Saltwater and Winona to be ex-
amined, and exclude mutual building assoei-
atfons In Fergus Falls Brainerd, Owatonna
and other places. 1t was absurd.
There was not a large attendance of the
members of the committee, and the Bell
amendment was agreed to, the bill also be-
ing recommended to pass.

A CHASTITY Parody of Thanks.

Boston Herald.
If the speaker is to be thanked for
anything by his political opponents it is
not for his imDartiality. Mr. Reed has not
even attempted to be impartial. He
went into the speakers chair with the
set purpose of not being impartial He
used that Office solely as the engine of
party. He was not even formally an
arbitrator between parties, as all other
speakers had been before him. He took
the speakership practically with the
motto: God help the Democrats while
under my rule His idea of it is, first
of all, the advantage it affords him of
leading the majority in the work of
crOwding out the minority on the floor.
This may be all right 1t may begin a
new era in party action in congress,
though we hope it will not; but it is not
the kind of speakership we have had in
the days before Mr.. Reed: it is not the
kind OF speakerslip for which speakers
have been thanked for century. 1t
would be CHASTITY parody of propriety
to thank Mr.. Reed for it.

The Democrats Back Him.

Albany Express.
One thing is certain. and that is some
of the most prominent Democrats in
the state have unequivocally declared
that Mr.. Hill should stay where he is.
Some time ago Buffalo paper sent a
circular to representative Democrats
soliciting their opinion on this matter.
and the great majority of the replies
were to the effect that the party de-
sired Mr.. Hill to remain at his present
post. The governor is likely to pay
demands and appeals of his political
opponents. The truth is he has never
been particularly deferential to RepubIi-
can opinion or sensitive to Republican
abuse. SO it Is not likely at this late
day that he will adopt new policy.

POINT FOR THE LEGISLATURE.
There was no apparent opposition to
the repeal by congress of the pre-emp-
ton and timber culture acts. 1t has
been the prevalent impression in the
sections to which they apply for some
years past that they had outgrown any
usefulness they may have had. Their
repeal has been anticipated at any ses-
sion in four or five years past. 1t is
doubtful if the pre-emption ever had
useful mission. Its practical operation
was to put lands into the hands of nom
residents for speculation, rather than to
effect the improvement and settlement
of the country. LII the Dakotas there
are thousands of vacant, unimproved
claims held by non-reSidents by virtue
of this act. The object of the tim
Der culture act was one almost vital to
the prairie regious of the Northwest.
They are hardly habitable. certainly not
susceptible of the highest develop
ment and advanced civilization, without
vastly more trees than will come in any
seaSonable time from the ungoaded i'm
pulses of settlers. The law was not ju-
dicious in its provisions. The finest
tree claims developed were by disre-
gard of the provisions of the law. But
it did considerable good. Some of the
many claims made under it have the
forestry that the law anticipates and
that is SO much needed in many sec
tons. 1t is to be regretted that there
was not some more adequate provision
made for the attainment of the end
for which the measure was de-
vised. Mr.. BARRETT, the secretary OF
the state forestry association, calls the
attention Of the legislature to the fact
that the recent action of congress en-
powers the president to set apart tracts
of government land for parks as deemed
advisable. The falling away of the
water iii so many of the lakes and
streams in this state is attributable to
the destruction of the forest in the
region of the headwaters. The propo-
sitiOn is to prevent the further destruc-
ton of the forests i'll the north part of
the state, to preserve the bodies of
water and protect the farmers. The
points as presented by Mr.. BARRETT
will be found worthy the attention of
the legislature.

GREAT MEMS SONS.

Secretary Blaine has two sons, but
neither of them will ever be his equal.
EmmonS Blaine is good railroad man.
but outside of his business he has no
ambition, while young Jim might be
claSsed as typical great mans son.
Had Walker Blaine LIVED he would
have had brilliant future. and would
probably have been we'll qualified to
fill his fathers shoes. | have heard
prominent statesmen, who are admir-
ers of the secretary of state, claim that
Walker. for his young years, was an
ADLER man for anything than his father.
He was born diplomat Malice had no
place in his disposition. What loss
he is, if for no other reason than that
he might have lived to prove that a
great father can transmit his ability to
his son.
Senator ingalls, has two sons. Tho
eldest is now practIcing law at his home
in Kansas. He graduated at the Column
bia Law School, but was educated in a
Western college. He is very brilliant
young man, and he is tall and slender
like his distinguished father. He de-
lights in being considered like his
father, and believes the senator the
greatest man in the country.
Senator German has only one son, and
they are devoted to each other. They
are more like two brothers than father
and son. Young German is very much
like his father in his manners, and for
his years is said to be youth of re-
markable good sense. He has not yet
finished his eduIatiOn. He has his
fathers taste for politics, and probably
holds the United States senate as the di-
rectIOn for his ambition.
Ewing Cockrell is the only son of the
Missouri senator by his second wife. He
is his fathers private secretary, and
takes to politics as aduck takes to water.
which is but natural considering that on
his mothers side as well he comes of
great political family.
-
Senator Vest has only one son, and he
bears his fathers name. He was edu-
Gated for the bar, and for time was
connected with the law department of
one of the leading Western roads. He
is now connected with the consular de-
partment of the government. Young
Vest inheritS none of his fathers ora
t0ricai powers.
Senator EustiS. of Louisiana. also has
son who is named after himself. The
father ana son are much in each others
society, and every morning young EuS-
It's accompanies his father to the senate.
The young man has his fathers love of
politics. and those who know him well
say that some day he will be factor in
the politics of Louisiana.

A GRAVE PERIL.

The Nebraska legislature has been
badly torn up of late over the question
of giving women the right to vote at
city and town elections, as in Kansas.
One of the chief opponents of the meas
ure was preacher named NEWBERRY.
Men of his cloth are conceded to speak
with weight when the other sex is
under review. His strong point was
that women did not purify politics. and
he cited one illustration that must carry a
suspicion of validity to many devoted
TO reform and the rights of the sex.
Numerous tests had been made, and
no woman had yet been found who
could resist railroad pass if the road
ran her way. High champions of the
suffrage movement ad limited that they
were opposed to laws prohibiting
the issuance of free passes Not
only this. but they massed their
smiles and Establishments upon sus-
ceptible members of the legisla-
tnre who wanted to be honest and vote
their convictions. It was objectionable
rudeness for the sanity legislator to say
1t. but he asserted that women by the
dozen were tagging around after the
men," and the male spine grew plant
This may be merely local condition,
but, if it is tine fact in other states also
that women are opposed to cutting off
passes, it becomes matter of grave con-
Germ where the extension of the ballot
is asked. In the legislatures in WiScon-
sin, the DakOtas and some other states
the most difficult struggle the average
legislator now has in his official career
is to persuade himself to vote retribu-
ton to any genial railroad fellow who
would perpetrate the pleasantly of slip
ping passes into his pocket. With the
sweet persuasion of the ladies added,
the high purpose of the legislator would
become melting wax.
