adopting a resolution for the appoint
ment of a committee to act with the
Hennepin delegation TO the legislature.
| This committee, when appointed, will
i do nothing but advise.
Rev. E. A. Skagsberg. of the
| Swedish tabernacle, asked the
board to assist to establish the
Swedish Evangelical Mission college in
Minneapolis. Mr.. Skojsberg told the
board that if S25. 900 can be raised among
the non-Scandinavian population, the
| college can be established in Mlnneapo-
! lis. 1t will be quite large institution.
The board Endorsed the project. In re-
| latlon to the resolutions recently adopt
| ed DO Inc Duluth chamber of commerce,
the board adopted the following resolu-
ton:
"ResoIved, That the board of trade of
Minneapolis favOrS the calling of con-
vention to form an organization whose
object and duty it shall be to take such
measures as may be deemed eXpedient
toward securing government aid for the
construction of a ship canal from the
great lakes to the Atlantic. through
United States territory, and to take all
such further measures as may be
deemed expedient toward the com.
mencement and completion of such
canal at the earliest day practicable"

be exceedingly difficult for any court to
establish the hospital nuisance. The
petition was therefore laid over, and the
committee listened to arguments from
H. A. Turner on the same subject. The
committee finally decided that it would
be better to postpone the entire matter.
and accordingly did so until after the
first Of the year.
Messrs. MacMullen and GOodnow
presented themselves in behalf of the
new garbarge dump on the RIVER bank
below the Tenth avenue south bridge.
They asked that the dump be accepted,
but the committee compromised by ac-
cepting the location. The committee
will visit the dump in a day or so, and
ascertain if it meets with all the nec-
esSary requirements.

A PRIOR RIGHT.
The City Has Such to the Quaran-

The committee on health and hospi-

cussed the all-absorbing question of
quarantine at st. Louis Park. City At

matter. He said that, IN his opinion,
the city had prior right to the use of
the ground for whatever purpose it de-
sired, in so much that it was the prop
erty of the city, and in operation before
the village of st. Louis Park was in
corporated. When the village was in
corporated the city's ground, including
the quarantine hospital, was taken i'll.
He therefore recommended that the
