IT would be a singular and interesting

IT would be a singular and interesting
spectacle, says the Minneapolis Journal,
if the democrats should decree David
Bennett Hill to the leadership of the
party in the senate. They are evidently
turning to him as the leader Of their
forlorn hope, a kind of Macmahon to
lead the storming party into the Mala-
kotf of the silver barons. Senator Hill
has expressed the conviction that it is
the duty of the vice president, under
existing conditions to stop any further
d~ilatory tactics and recognize q motion
for a change of the senate rules at once
so as to bring the bill to a vote. This
is undoubtedly correct, and if Steven
son rules the motion out Of order and
Hill can get enough votes to reverse
the ruling, the question of the hour
can be disposed of in q few minutes.
This is the way out of the muddle
and, certainly, if David Bennett Hill
has the courage to carry out what he
has stated to be his views, the adj
ministration ought, in the spirit of true
m~agnanimity, to abandon Voorhees, and
request Hill to take immediate charge
Of the bill. There are intimations in
the democratic organs in the north
that such a course would be COM
menued by them. The Globe, which
deserted Hill last year, after
playing the role of q Hill organ
before the Chicago convention, comes
cut with a strong Endorsement of Hills
proposition to count q quorum after Tom
Reeds fashion and the organ will no
doubt indorse Hills scheme to amend
the senate's rules. Surely if the organs
are turning to Hill as a deliverer, the
administration ought to swallow it's
strongest prejudices and also turn to
David Bennett Hill for relief. The dead
lock should be stopped at any sacrifice
If feeling. The business OF the country
has waited long and patiently for relief
and it must have it.

board OF railroad commissioners that
certain grain dealers in Minneapolis and
Duluth have filed bonds with the board
to indemnify shippers Of grain in North
Dakota against loss. There being no
law requiring the filing of snch bonds it
looks like a clever advertisement on the
part OF these firms, who are no more
responsible than ex- Governor Burke and
others who do not seem to be aware Of
the scheme.

The Grand Forks correspondent of
the Minneapolis Journal attributes
other reasons than those set forth by the
defendants for disobeying the law IN re-
lation to state repositories in this state.
The correspondent declares that attor-
neys are amused and surprised at the
frivolous answer made by Treasurer
Nomland and his bondsmen through
their attorney. Mr.. Barnes. He says:
Sections 1. 5 and 6 of Nomland'S answer
recites at much length detailed evidence
alleging irregularity in the passage of the
act. 1t is claimed that the bill passed by the
senate was not the same bill as passed by
the house. 1t is true, as shown by the sen.
ate journal, that the senate committee on
banking. to whom the bill was referred. and
OF which committee Senator Cashe!-an-
other OF Nomland's bUndsmen-was chair.
man, recommended amendments reduc-
ing the rate of interest to 3 per cent. and
providing thar the law should not 60 into
effect until 1895, but the same senate jour
nal shows that the bill was passed by the
senate "unchanged' and so transmitted to
the house in the usual form of message,
over the signature of the secretary of the
senate. Furthermore, the original bill on
uic II lLlc SeCIcldIy VI Std!c ; OlllCe years all
the usual, regular and constitutional in
dOrsements and certitications of officers Of
both houses and the executive. Attorneys
for the state will cite a formidable array of
opinions covering these points, from the
opinion Of the United States supreme court
sustaining a disputed section in the Nc
kinley law, down through a series of.
decisions in the courts of half the states OF
the union, all holding the inadmi>sibiiity
of evidence as to the procedure in the
passage of a bill through the legislative
houses by reference to the journals Of the
house in cases where the original bill it
self bears all the evidence Of constitutional
enactment.
The seventh anu last point urged in tie
answer Is that it is not defendants duty to
execute said chapter 49," nor to deposit
state funds in compliance Herewith. ana
"avers that by reason of fact hereinbcfOrc
set FORTH said act never passed the legi>-
lature. is therefore null and void and that
neither the "sncalled state board of audi
tors nor this defendant have any authority
to act hereunder. 1t is a fact also worthy
OF note that this act is substantially a re-
production Of similar laws in several other
states now in force and whose constitu-
t~ionality has never been questioned.

JUDGE COOLEY AYs "For a majority
OF the senate to concede for any reason
that a rule Of practice in debate or of
senatorial courtesy makes it possible for
a minority to prevent legislation by in
definitely protracting debate is equal to
revolution. 1t is as much revolution as
though accomplished with arms and
violence. Members of the majority
should make the proper motions looking
to definite and final action on the pend
ing measure and the presiding officer
should recognize them, since only in
that way can the inalienable right of the
senate to express it's will be exercised"

AS a mean of developing the great
west aud enabling the tanner who lives
a great distance from market to get the
same price for his products as the agri.
culturists who live near to theconsumer,
a California man, named David Lubin,
has evolved the ingenious idea of hav.
ing the government transport all agricultu,
raj products on the ~postofice system at
a uniform rate regardless of distance.
This would give the western farmer a
great advantage over his eastern fel.
low and cause a rush to the unoccupied
land. To avoid speculation and the
buying of lands for renting Or speculs-
tive purposes, it is proposed to exempt
land cultivated by an American citizen
who is the owner, from taxation and tax
only those lands held by aliens and
spectators and from which rentals
shall be exacted. Mr.. Lubin's scheme
is to equalize and re.distribute the bur-
den Of transportation so as to be borne
by all classes alike and not::entirely by
the producers as under the existing
rules. The theory is a reversal of Henry
George and just about as feasible. It
is doubtful if the government owner
ship of railroads would lessen the ex.
pense of management and operating, in
which event the whole people would
bear the burden and the cost to the
consumer would be greater. Lubin's
scheme would be a good one for the
western farmer but the eastern con.
sumner would be injured. It is there.

probably means a complete change in
the management Of the Northern Pacific
from Cakes down. Not Immediately,
but as soon as arrangements can be
made to relieve the road of its financial

and it is not unlikely the road will get
out of the receivers hands for a year or
more.
