GRANTsBURG, Wis, Feb. %. - A
heavy snow storm started yesterday
noon, and it kept showing until this
morning, when it stopped, and a high
wind came up that has been piling up
mountains of snow. Farmers can't get
into town. No trains have arrived here
since yesterday forenoon. The lumber
men will stop work in the pineries IN
many places on account of the deep
snow. 1t is the worst storm for num-
ber of years.

saltwater Has Snow Enough to
Last All Summer.

Last All Summer.
Special to the Globe.
SALTWATER, Mimi, Feb. 2S.-The
all-absorbing topic in this city today
was the storm of the preceding day and
night, and seldom. if ever. has q more
severe blizzard been encountered here.
The streets are filed with huge drifts,
and, although hundreds of men and
teams we're employed all day, they have
made little headway in clearing up.
The storm began early Monday morn
ing and increased in violence un-
til nearly all trains were abandoned.
The first train to arrive here after the
storm was at 2:35 p. m. today, when
st. Paul Il Duluth passenger train. due
here the preceding day, pulled into the
union station. The first train on the
Omaha road arrived here few minutes
later, and brought with it about thirty
passengers from the main line train
from the East, who were sn0w-bound
all of the preceding night at Saltwater
Junction. One Of the passengers. in
describing their predicament, said that
the hungry passengers soon got away
with everything eatable in the dining
car, and early yesterday morning waded
through the snow to a farm house
rev rOuS from lne Irack, where tney
received fresh supply of food. Con-
ductor Walters left here at IL m. yester-
day. expecting to go through. but when
he reached the junction he received
orders to turn back, which he did.
1t took three engines to pull
the train. and in many places it
was almost impossible to get through
the heavy snow. Snow plOws are at
work on all roads, but chances are that
it will be some time before trains are
running regularly. No word has been
received from the logging districts, but
Saltwater loggers are afraid that the
storm was so severe in the pineries as
to make work impossible. Business in
this city was practically at standstill
until noon yesterday, the snow prevent
ing nearly every one from leaving
home. The city snow plow was used
to clean the sidewalks, and each side OF
the sidewalks is lined with banks of
snow. Country roads are drifted so
badly that farmers are unable 10 get
out, and consequently little has been
heen heard from the country districts.
Fortunately, the storm was not accom-
panied by severe cold, and. as nearly as
can be learned, there was no suffering
in or near Saltwater.

Red-Hot Debate ON the House
Substitute Bill.

eQ-Hot Debate on the House
Substitute Bill.
Special orders for the afternoon ses-
sion of the house are coming to be
regular thing. Yesterday. Immediately
after recess, the house in committee of
the whole, with Mr. Cotton in the chair,
took up II. F. 337, to regulate the haul
ing and shipment of grain. A full house
was in attendance in the expectation of
an interesting If not an exciting debate,
and the anticipation was not far wrong.
The discussion was opened by Mr..
Greer, who took the floor in favor of the
bill Immediately OH its reading. He
offered an amendment that gave rise to
a long, tireSOme debate. 1t was to in
sert the words, Except at terminal
points," MessrS. McGrath, German,
Moore, Buck and Mcguire took excep-
tion TO the amendment as wrong in prin-
ciple and misleading.
Mr.. Greer gave way TO the objections
and offered an amendment to accom-
plish his object by inserting the words
"Other than stations designated by law
as terminal points," This, too, was ep-
posed, and Messrs. McGrath and Lime
mann said their people did not ask for
or want the bill.
MIR. Greer quoted the planks of both
parties platforms touching the subject,
and said both had agreed last fall to
give the farmers some measure of pro-
lection from the rapaciousness of the
grain combines. He was willing to have
stricken out anything that was consid-
cred wrong in the bill, but as a whole
he considered 1t fair and good bill,in
the interest of the small farmers of the
state.
Mr.. Moore said that while the third
party amounted to but little on the floor
numerically, he would read the section
of the Peoples party platform OH the
subject, which declared simply in favor
of a free and open market. He thought
the pending bill would not have any
good effect in securing the desired re-
forms. and therefore could not sup
port it.
Mr.. German said that while the party
platforms all declared in favor of legis-
lation to relieve the grain growers, it
did not follow that they would approve
this bill.
Mr.. ROdger said that as the farmers
did not seem to want the bill, he would
move to report progress.
Mr.. FurlOng had been unable to dis
cover the slightest demand for the bill.
He thought it would have tendency to
drive out independent buyers and heart

delay delegation from the Fifth ward
grew impatient at the delay and kicked
in the door. 1t was pacitied, however,
and went outside again. The COM
mittee on credentials finally re-
ported, and loud cries arose for
roll call. Before it could be begun,
however, Mr.. Hesing arose to address
the convention. He told the delegates
that the convention was packed in the
interest of his opponent and that the
primaries have been unfairly con-
Quoted. He then formally withdrew
his name from before the convention
and asked his friends, especially the
Germans, to vote some other ticket
than that headed by Harrison. A bal
lot was then taken, the result being
Carter H. Harrison 531, De Witt G.
Cregier 9S, Hesing 81. Harrison was
then declared the choice of the Demo
cratic party. The other nominations
were: City treasurer, Michael Brans-
field; city attorney, George A. Trude:
city clerk, Charles Gastfield.

put on his slippers and study-coat, pulled
