DECISIONS BY MITCHELL.
The Minnesota Supreme Court n.
cldes Several Ca.es

The MinnesOta Supreme Court De.
cides Several Cases.
st. Paul, April 27.-Judge Mitchell
handed down several decisions iir the
supreme court to-day. In five of the
cases the lower courts were sustained
and In the other two they were re-
versed. The case of Wells Truman
vs. George A. and John $. Pillsbury
ct al. establishes the validity of trans
fers of land under powers of attorney
executed before the title to such land
is acquired. In the case under con-
sideratiOn a power of attorney was
executed authorizing the attorney to
sell and convey lands that were there
after acquired under the soldiers ad-
ditional homestead act. The supreme
court upheld the lower court in hold
Ing that such authority exists. In the
Carver county liquor license case the
court holds that it is discretionary
with the boards of county commits
siOncrs to grant or refuse n license to
sell intoxicating liquors. and that such
boards cannot be controlled or inter-
fered witk by mandamus proceedings.
In the Clay county tax case against
the Minneapolis 4 Northern Elevator
company it is held that the property
OF q purchaser must be taxed where
his business Ia carried on, that is,
where 1t is kept for sale, and that the
buying of property in another town
or district would not render it assess.

MONEY IN SIGHT.

Lesislstion which VIII Enable the
Capitol Commission to Go Ahead.
st. Paul. April 25.-st. Paul is now
In a position to push along the new
capitol by advancing the money that
the legislature declined to advance.
April IL Mr.. Warner introduced in the
house and had passed, under suspen-
sion Of the rules, a most innocent
looking bill, providing that the county
commissioners Of Ramsey county issue
bonds to the amount of one-fifth of
per cent of the assessed valuation of
the county for the erection and main-
tenance Of public buildings within her
borders.
:. That same day the bill passed the
senate, through the efforts of Senator
Stevens and the remainder of the
Ramsey county delegation, and no
one thought anything particular about
It. The object of the bill is to assist
in building the new capitol by having
the county advance the money whep
1t is most needed.
