Senator Washburn arrived In the
city yesterday OH his way home to
Minneapolis from Washington. he was
at the Windsor for few moments. ana,
in speaking Of the situation in Wash
ington and the work for the coming
session, he said to reporter OF the
GLOBE:
II shall return in the course of few
days, probably next we k. There is
large amount OF work to come up before
the session and among the prlnclpal
things will be the discussion of the ap-
pontment of senators by the governors
of various states because the legisla-
lures failed TO elect them, and their ad-
mission into congress. There are three OF
them and the discussion will not be
upon partisan points or political grounds,
but upon the merits of the condition VI
affairs. Both sides are Interested in the
discussion, and it Is probable that the
debate will last for some time. 1t is
question which has never before ap-
peared, and the result of the discussion
will be the establishment of a preced-
ent. 1t will be necessary to exercise
the greatest possible care IN arriving at
Il decision as the possibility or MIS-
take would, result in the greatest posi-
ole harm"
"What stand will you take on the sub
ject?" asked the reporter.
81 am opposed to their admission"
was the reply. IL think that the legis-
latOrS are representatives of the people,
and, If appointed by one man, serious
mistakes are apt to occur, and men may
be appointed who are not the choice OF
the people. If this were considered the
proper manner of selecting the mem
berS of congress it might arrive at such
q ia lt1ti
If they have not the right to accept sucn
positions on being appointed by the gov
ernOrs the legislatures will elect them
in the usual and lawful manner"

There will be a number of new build
ings constructed in the spring, and we
anticipate rise in the price OF real
estate. The recent election in our place
was not carried out Oil party lines, and
the men who were thought to be the
best representatives were placed in
power. We were not for the party, but

dozen banks III the state of North Da-
kota, was at the Merchants yesterday.
There will be large inflow Of set
tiers during the coming summer" he
said to a reporter for the GLOBE, 'and
it is expected that the state will grow i'll
population with great rapidity. The
recent good crops have advertised the
state and its facilities for fal inning, ana
during the influx of people to the worlds
fair we expect that there will be many
who desire 10 come to our state TO look
over the chances tor investment and
settlement. 1t is well known that the
state offers the best advantages 10 set
tiers of any state in the Union. and
there are large quantities of land there
which have never yet been surveyed. AS
soon as the settlers are located the sur
vey is made if they petition for it, and
the land is divided up properly. There
are large quantities of arabic land
along the Missouri river which will be
probably taken next season by settlers
