Donnelly Denies Reported Combine
of Democrats and Populists.
ST. PAUL, Feb. THE senate held no
morning session but met at p. m. I'm
mediately after converting Senator
Leavitt for the Democrats and Senator
Donnelly for the Populists arose on a
question of privilege to deny that any
deal had been fixed up between Demo-
cratic and Alliance members of the
senate to oppose Republican measures.
So far as the gentlemen knew. no meet.
ings had been held to consider any such
thing, and they desired to deny the
newspaper insinuations to that effect.
A resolution from the house to ap-
point a committee to investigate the
charges made in a certain St. Paul
daily as to whipping at the st. Cloud
reformatory was concurred in after
some sharp objection by Senator Gran
dali, who reflected upon the editor of
the paper for publishing these charges
without the names of the parties who
made them.
Senator Craig's bill regulating the
selection of swamp lands was the only
bill discussed in committee of the
whole. It was recommended to pass.

loved to pride himself as coming from
the common people, and kept ever
close to the people. His struggles up
ward to the great position he occupied
in one Of the most momentous periods
of the nations history will ever prove
an interesting story to the youth Of
the land, and cannot fail to have ar
influence for good upon them.

IN THE HOUSE.

The Introduction of Bills Occupies
the Larger Part Of the Session.
Almost the entire time of the house
during the morning was occupied in the
introduction of bills. Among the most
important was one by Mr.. Hinrichs,
providing that the death penalty shall
be inflicted in the state prison at Still
water, and that special room is to be
fitted up within the prison walls for
that purpose. The bill also provides for
repeal of the John Day Smith law,
requiring that the executions shall take
place during the night.
Mr.. Wyman introduced two bills at
the request of the state treasurer, or in
compliance with the recommendations
in his annual report and that of the
state auditor. The first requires the
state treasurer to make daily report
to the state auditor. The second relates
to the repositories for the state funds
and requires that the banker with
whom the funds are to be deposited
shall give personal bond for twice the
amount deposited in his bank.
Business Transacted.
After the presentation Of large
number of petitions III. F. 23S, by Mr.
Cairns, relating to the incorporation o.
villages, applied by general law to th'
village of Crystal, Hennepin county

pended, on motion of Mr.. Cairns, ant
the bill passed.

| withdrew his request.

ST. PAUL, Feb. 13.-The Hon. Hitler
Horton, of Ramsey county, is by this
time reasonably sure that his bill to
prohibit pool selling and pool rooms is
dead and beyond all hope of reviving.
Saturday morning, in accordance with
the notice he gave on the previous day,
he moved to reconsider the vote by
which the bill was defeated. Mr.. Dunn
thought the house had already indicated
its sentiment in regard to this bill, and
that it was no use to further waste
time over the bill. He therefore moved
to lay the motion to reconsider on the
table. Mr.. Dunn's motion was carried
by vote of 4S to "a. F. M. Wilson's
bill to increase the salary of the clerk
of the supreme court was also defeated
when taken up.

MANKATo FREE PRESS.
TAXING RAILROAD LANDS.

The bill introduced into the legisla'
ture by Representative Markham, OF
Aitkin county, providing for the tax
ing of railroad lands, which are mol
used by the roads in connection WITH
their business, seems to be just one,
and should become law. 1t has al
ready passed the house with little OF
no opposition. and is now before the
senate. The only particular opposl'
tion there seems to be against the Oil
is made on the ground that It's pas
sage will repeal the gross earnings
tax. This fear is mostly expressed by
the representatives of the railway cor
porations, who appear to be very So
fictitious for the public welfare in this
case, as the gross earnings tax is sure
ly more expensive for the railroads
than would be the tax on the lands in
question. There are now about 5.OOO,'
600 acres of these lands the principal
nortions of which lie in Pine, Carrie
ton, st. Louis, Itasca, Cass, Crow
Wing, Mile Laos, Aitkin, Wadena,
Hubbard. Becker, Todd, Otter Tall,
CLAW. Norman, Marshall and kittson
counties. These lands pay no portion
of the school tax, road tax. or any
other part of the burden of the local
government, yet receive all the bene-
fits from local Improvements made,
and advance in value accordingly.
AS to the question that this tax
might be compelling railroads to pay
more than their share of taxes, when
taken in connection with the three
per cent. tax, the county attorney OF
Aitkin county has made an estimate
that if the railroad property was
taxed as other property was taxed, the
roads would pay about 100000 in
stead of the SS50,O00 now paid to the
state. This estimate is based upon
the valuation of the railroad proper
ty as made by the railroad commits
sioners, which was 1926, $50, 900, exclus-
i've of the lands in question.
Whether or not the bill now before
the legislature would, if it became a
law, repeal the gross earnings tax, is
a question for the legal fraternity TO
decide, but whether it has any bearing
upon the case or not, it of course
serves as very good excuse to defeat
the bill. No one wants the gross
earnings tax endangered, and our law
makers should exercise great care IN
that respect At the same time this
great body of land ought to be contrib
uting it's share of the expense OF the
local government in the counties
where it is situated, and if the bill
does not interfere with the 3per cent.
tax, it ought to become law.

A Resolution to Adjourn March
90 Introduced in the Leg
iSlature.
Leavitt's Constitutional Amend
ment to Tax Inheritances
Passed.
Bill to Repeal the Smith Hang
ing Law Comes Up in the
House.

ST. PAUL, Feb. 8-A basketful of pc
titions relating to the anti-scalpers' bill
and the new capitol opened the morning
session of the senate.
Senator Mcmillan offered a concur
rent resolution designed to cut the
session short on March % by sine die
adjournment and providing that no
bills shall be introduced after March l.,
except upon request of the governor.
Senator Mcmillan tried to get imme-
date action on the passage of the reso-
luton, but was choked off by a refer
ence to the committee on rules.
Following the introduction of bills
there was large grist of committee
reports. The report of the committee
on judiciary as to Senator McMillan's
bill relating to franchises granted by
cities and villages, which was in favor
of indefinite postponement, was set
aside and the bill referred to the COM
mittee of the whole.
Bills Passed.
The calendar was taken up and Sena-
tor Hompe opened out on the bill relat-
ing to disbursements in civil actions
which has been at the head of the calen-
dar for some little time. A general dis
cussion followed and when a vote was
taken the bill was defeated by vote of
10 to 26. The inheritance tax bill was
then taken up and passed without de-
bate, only votes being cast in the neg
ative. The following bills were also
passed:
Senator McMillan's bill referring to bound
airy lines.
Senator McHale's bill repeating the law re-
quiring publication of notice of redemption
from tax sale.
Senator Davis bill relating to county COM
missioners
Senator Canestorp's bill relating to incorpor-

Or. NORvIN Green, president of
the Western Union Telegraph Co.,
who died at his home in Louisville,
KY, yesterday morning, is said to
have been one of the great est organ
izers in America. He became interest
ed in telegraph lines in 1854, and has
been connected with telegraph COM
panies ever since. In company with
Jay Gould he obtained control of the
WesternUnionCo.in the latter'70's and
merged the other companies into it,
and soon after became it's president
He had quite love for politics, and
his admirers are of the opinion that
had he not been connected with the
great Telegraph corporation, he would
have reached the presidency of the
nation.
