The Davis Bill.

ne sb8E1S BILL
A motion was made to take up the
Davis bill, but it was interrupted by
demand for call of the senate made by
Senator March. The senators absent
without leave were found to be MessrS.
Llenau, Tawney and John Day Smith.
All were found, save Senator Lienau, in
a few minutes. Tue vote was then
taken and the consideration of the
Davis bill decided upon by vote of 81
to 20 in the main, as before. A motion
to reconsider was made and voted down.
and then a motion was made to read
and act OH the bill section by section.
The first section was read, and Sena-
tor Dean at once offered his amendment,
saying lie did not care to discuss the
subject whether money is commodity
or not, but just as q side thrust, the
Ramsey county senator declared the
gle authority OIL political economy on
his side.
"If. he said. the senator from Da kota pre-
fers to stand alone on that assertion L shall
not disturb him..
Senator Dean concluded his speech by
arraigning the government for making
so cents worth of silver a dollar, and
declared that it was the browning in
fanny of the age.
Inc sage replied, claiming tnat Tree
coinage of silver would make silver
dollar dollar. The American people
have outgrown the theories laid down
by the old political economists.
The Dean amendment finally reached
vote, and was rejected by 81 nays to Q
yeas, Senators Barr, Daugherty. Dean,
Lienau. Morse. O'Brien, Phillips, E. r.,
Smith and Streissguth voting for it.
After much discussion section l of the
Davis bill was adopted, and the balance
of the afternoon was spent in discussing
amendments changing, the penalty for
usury, Senator Donnelly wanting for
fixture of principal and interest as we'll
as Imprisonment, while Senators Taw-
ney and Leavitt wanted only forfeiture
of the interest and imprisonment,
Shortly before 6 O'Clock an adjourn
meht was taken.

HAMILTON. Ont, March 5.-The large
Conservative majorities here are q sur
prise to both parties, especially after
the Liberal victory of last week. The
city is wild with excitement; large pro-
cessions, with lamps and fireworks, are

is an invention of civilized nations to facili-
tate exchanges Money has no fixed value
for its use. The value of money is regulated
by the law of supply and demand, and you
can no more change it than you can restrain
the flow of the Mississippi river. What
would have been the effect few months ago
il the merchants of st. Paul, Minneapolis.
New York ana Boston and other cities could
not have paid more than per cent for
money: These merchants paid l. 10 30 per
cent to save their good names and their
fortunes, They did this. but they did it in
violation of law. Remove these usury laws
and money will flow into this state without
restraint
Nayo's Opinion.
Senator Mayo agreed with Senator
Dean in the main. but thought that the
committee bill would meet all require
nents. 1t secured the principal. and
Furnishes the man who charged the
usury and committed the crime, and
not the innocent Investor. 1--WE want
to make laws that are just said the
venerable doctor in concluding his adj
dress
Senator March did not agree with
Senator Dean. The latter was most
successful business ina, and probably
could go into the money markets of the
world and borrow money at low rate,
put his constituents were not of that
class. If they were, he should certainly
take the same ground. 1t was eminently
proper for the legislature to fix mar
ket rate beyond which it should not 60.
The LeVitical law does not count in
the discussion on the interest question
IN Minnesota, according to Senator
Eaton. who took up the Biblical quota
lions made by Senator Dean. Mr.. Eaton
took the ground that wealth was at all
times able to take care of itself, while
the average borrower in the state was
not. If the merchants of st. Paul and
Minneapolis wanted no restrictions
placed on the rate for loans of over
$4,000. as is provided in the New York
law, he would vote for such an excep-
ton if presented. The merchants and
business men could stand such a law,
but with the people who borrowed small
amounts are not in that position.
a recess was taken for lunch.

THE BATTLE Is RENEWED.
Senators Continue Their Talk OF
the Eternal TOfepaSt OueStian

Senators Continue Their Talk on
the Eternal Interest Question.
The afternoon session of the senate
opened with the appearances decidedly
in favor of a drawn battle that might
last some time. The gayel of the chair
man had hardly ceased ringing when
Senator Hammer was Oh his feet nov
ing a reconsideration of the vote by
which the Davis bill had been laid aside
at the morning session. This was in
tefrupted by Senator Davis demanding
call of the senate. A number of the
senators were found to be sick and
were excused; several never were
found, and the call was dispensed
with, and the motion of Senator
Hammer was announced to be the
pending question by the chairman, Sen
atOr Stevens. lie having been called to
the chair by President Pro TEN. HON.
pc, who desired to be heard on the
question.
Senator Hompe opposed the motion
because it had several times been voted
down. The majority in the senate were
opposed to the present
Usury Laws
because the capital sent into the state
by Eastern investors would be entirely
at the mercy of his agent, who, by
charging uSury, might lose the capital.
This he was opposed tO,and this the ma
Jority of the senate was against.
Senator Donnelly said the question
was not the passage of the Davis bill,
but whether it should be considered. If
the senator from Otter Tail desired to-
protect innocent principals he could pre-
pare such an amendment. The senator
paid his respects to the argument of
Senator Dean. made in the forenoon
session.
The senator from Ramsey. said the Sage,
took the position That all usury laws were
wrong and that money is a commodity.
Moneys not a commodity; it is a govern
mental standard of value.''
MAY ask the senator from Dakota ques-
tion:1 asked Senator Morse.
Certainly said the Sage.
Then. said Mr. Morse, has tWeutv-three
grains of gold any intrinsic value:''
No; said the Sage. NO, il has a value
that civilized nations have agreed on. The
law OF supply and demand cannot be applied
to money You cannot have money except
as the government stamps it and sends out.
The whole argument IS fallacy.'
Little Row.
Senator Sevatson demanded the yeas
and nays, and Senator Leayitt replied
to several statements made by the Sage
a day or two ago.
Senator Davis stirred up a little row
by charging that the caucus had agreed
on the substitute bill, at least so the
Carver county senator had stated.
This brought Senator Craven to his
feet. who asserted that it was true that
these matters had been considered in
caucus. and farther said:
IF all who were in that caucus had stuck
TO their agreement a and s per cent bill
NCOtllH
That caucus decided 10 stand by the pres
ent usUry laws said Senator Donnellv.
The vote on the motion to reconsider
was finally taken, resulting as follows:

WHY NOT WAIT2

The GLOBE thinks that everybody in
the state will indorSe the selection of
Gen. SHELLEY for the honor Of position
as representative of Minnesota's great
ness in the national capitol in Washing
ton. lie was a Minnesota man from be-
fore the beginnings of the common
wealth. All his active life was spent
here. His best energies were given to
the states advancement He saw it
grow from haunt of Savages to the
home of a great and highly civilized
people. Not blow was struck for its
advancement in which his strength was
not felt. He loved it with patriots
devotion, and up to few weeks before
his death his thoughts and labors were
unceaSing on its behalf He was the
best and foremost of our pioneers. and
no one can be named from among all the
men who have lived to this day more
worthy OF more fit to be crowned with
the distinction which is proposed
But Is it quite wise to fill both Of the
inches allotted to the state at this time?
Would it not be we'll to place Gen. SIB-
LEY'S statue in one of them and re-
serve the other for some hero or bene-
factor of the time to come? Minnesota
is nursing noble race of men, anointed
for great achievements in the struggles
of the future. The hard problems of civ
iliZation are just beginning for US, and
there may be within our borders philan-
thropists and statesmen still unknown.
who will lead US through dark places
with wisdom and courage emitting
them to the lasting gratitude of genera
tons yet unborn. Would it not be bet
ter to keep for some one among them a
space where they may be held up to the
gaze and the applause of the world?
Minnesota's primeval life is not yet end
ed. and the men. who will be always re-
membered in connection with it have
not yet done their work. There seems
to be Il good deal in this thought.

TAe Danbury Recruit who Never Even
Fired His Musket

TAe Danbury Recruit who Never Even
Fired His Musket.
On one of the last rainy DAYS a num-
Der Of old veterans CHANGED TO meet in
one Of our business places. and Of course
"reminiscences of the war were in order.
Among the stories told was the follow
ing, which we think win prove new TO
our readers; During the last year of
the war the ranks Of the Second Heav-
les had become thinned and a number
Of recruits were sent to replenish them,
among the number being Mr. . a
well-known resident OF Danbury, who
was also well known by a large num-
Der of our townsmen.
He went down filed with patriotism
and fervent desire to deal death and
destruction TO the ''graybaclSs" from
the bright new musket which he car
ried. But it so happened that he never
had a chance to show his devotion TO
the flag in battle and not until the regi-
ment was about to be mustered out did
he get a chance to fire his gun. Previ-
Gus to the mastering out the governor
of Connecticut came to the camp and
orders were issued for a dress parade
and review, at which a salute in honor
of the governor would be fred.
That night, in his tent. our hero
thought long and seriously, and the
more he thought the more determined
he became that, as he had never been
able to fire the gun in the face of the
rebels, he would not spoil its brightness
now in so ignoble a way as firing sa-
lutes. Taking the weapon. he procured
piece of wire and effectually spiked
the gun. NEXT day, on receiving com
mand to load. our recruit did so with
the rest, and pulled the trigger at the
command Fire" with much equanim-
ity. of course the gun did not respond,
and when the command was received
to load again. and cartridge was bit
ten off and rammed home, again the
trigger was pulled with the same result
as before.
AS he was loading for the third time
his lieutenant happened to notice that
/ the larger part of his ramrod projected
from the barrel and, stepping up to
! him said why, G., your gun didn't 60
off, did it?" well, it looks that way,
| sin" was the answer. well, for Gods
sake, don't put in any more charges or
| it viii blow your darned head off if it
should go off" said the lieutenant
| "All right sir said the recruit.
Guess you know best, and during the
rest of the firing c. only initiated the
motions of the rest At night he took
his gun, and, drawing the charges, he
polished the weapon and brought it
back as he carried it away, without
once firing it. He still has the musket.
and keeps it as a relic of his valiant
services, but the gun will never be fred
as long as he lives.-Ansonia ct SEN
