NIGHT SESSION.
An evening session of the house was
held, the committee of the whole con-
sidering and passing upon about a
dozen bills, most of them OF minor in
portance. The bill appropriating s13.-
900 for the maintenance of the farm
ers' institute, met vigorous opposi-
ton from an unexpected source. A. B.
Kelly, of Rice county, declared that
the farmers institute was an irnpo-
yf,--Dr
a snare. The farmers of his section
of the state opposed it on principle.
He not only objected to the amend
ment adding $1,000 to the annual APP
preparation, but opposed the bill itself.
Mr.. Gibbs expressed some surprise
that member from a farming com
munity should oppose the bill, but
Mr.. Kelly insisted that the farmers of
his section believed the institution to
be a fraud, and would support him in
his opposition. Both Mr. Gibbs and
Mr.. Meilicke supported the bill, and 1t
was recommended to pass.
Mr.. Warner got himself into jangle
with Mr.. Dahl, of the Hennepin dele
cation, and wasted almost two min
utes in making kindling wood of the
plausible argument of the gentleman
from Hennepin. The argument was
over the motion to favorably recon-
mend the bill to lay water pipe from
the main pipe in st. Paul to the state
fair ground. Mr.. Dahl thought 1t
would be cheaper to insure the build
ings and then let them burn, but Mr..
Warner, assisted by Mr. Robbins and
one or two others, soon demonstrate ted
no arr icl
doctrine than it was moral doctrine.
as the buildings could not be insured
unless protected by water.
Several motions and counter motions
were made, and the bill was finally
recommended to pass by practically
unanimous vote. Mr.. Staples was in
the chair and galloped over business
like a buck board over a corduroy
road, entertaining no dilatory mo-
lions and expediting business so that
the house will have a substantial cal
endar to work upon today.
