the session, will result in an entirely
new deal in the makeup of the next
legislative ticket from this county.
In the local campaign last fall
there were three distinct PROPOSE
tons upon which each of the candi-
dates for election to the legislature
was made to commit himself. These
were the demand for charter legis-
lation, reduction of governmental
expenses in county and city and the
consideration of the supplemental
capitol bill, the last being simply the
necessity for correcting some of the
minor details of the law of 1893.
With public sentiment ripe for re-
trenchment all over the ctate, with
half a dozen cities plodding along
under charters which have outlived
their usefulness, and with no ma
terial or organized opposition to the
proposed modification Of the capitol
law, it seemed at the outset that the
task of the Ramsey county delega-
ton would be an easy one. But
week after week went by and moth
ing came save an infinite variety OF
measures all with the general pur-
pose of advancing some political in
tereSt, creating some new office, eX-
tending the term of some present
official or voting an appropriation
as a reward for some real or mag
mary political service. Still no re-
trenchment, no charter, no capitol
bill.
Finally one senator (Sheehan) in
troduced a brace of bills drawn in
conformity with the campaign pledg-
es, and there was such fiutter
among the affected politicians that
the same bills, when perfunctorily
introduced in the house, were incon-
tinently butchered without so much
as the formality of hearing. The
session is more than half over and
not a single bill affecting any ma
terial interest of Ramsey county
has been passed or given any prom
Use of passing. 1t has been so great
ly feared that the Democratic repre-
SentativeS would reap some credit
from the. session that the Repub-
lican leaders have carefully with
held from them all knowledge of the
plans of the majority party, and on
one occasion a vote was precipitated
when the Democratic leader, Mr..
Kelly, was absent, in the hope of
passing the bill without his vote.
The same captious minority from
the country which has all along
made a plaything of the Republican
leaders, defeated the passage of the
bill at that time, as they have at ali
other times when they chose to do
so.
In the mean time it has come to
pass that when a bill comes in from
the Ramsey county delegation coun-
try members prick up their ears and
Immediately begin to figure on using
it as club to drive the Ramsey
county delegation into the support
of some measure of their own.
Let the discussion proceed. The
Dispatch is right; the delegation is
useless. The Pioneer Press is right;
the delegation is harmful.

TREATMENT OF INEBRIATEs

Several plans have been under
discussion before the legislature for
the treatment of chronic inebriates
the central idea around which all of
them revolve being the adoption of
the Keely double cloride of gold
treatment. The main difficulty in
the way of an agreement seems to
be that no two persons have recon-
mended the same plan of admins
tering the treatment. If it is de-
sired to administer this treatment
there would seem to be a very sim
pie plan by which the cost could be
reduced to the minimum and the
treatment given in it's most effective
form. The state already has a So
called inebrfate hospital, a branch of
the Rochester asylum being used for
that purpose, and there is no doubt
that arrangements could be made
with the proprietors Of the cure for
administering the treatment at this
hospital, where all patients would
be subject to the discipline of the
institute and where the best possible
results could be obtained.
The present law for the commit
ment of inebriates could be so
amended as to give judges of pro-
bate discretionary powers in the mat

SEPARATE ELECTIONS.

All that is promised in the direc-
ton of purifying municipal elections
and Withdrawing the business of city
government from the hands of pro-
fessional politicians would be set at
naught by law requiring that the
city elections be held at the same
time as the general state election is
held. This would be so obvious on
the face of it as to require no argu-
ment. Let it be supposed that a
| general election is pending, and that
| on the same day the city holds it's

| three, political parties engaged in
the general struggle, each using ev-

their friends by promises of patron

the city's affairs who will devote to
the business of the city the same de-

WASHINGTON, March l. The
house is approaching the close of the
session with unusual calmness and
equanimity. Not a sensational Incl
dent occurred on this, the last legis-
lative day but one of the session.
The entire day was devoted to the
consideration of bills on motions to
pass them under suspension of the
rules. Five recognitions for this
purpose were made by the speaker,
of which three passed and two failed
to receive the necessary two-thirds.
Those which passed were:

senate bill to impose penalties upon

merce law exposed an alleged scheme
to secure action on the pooling kill
in the senate. it being claimed that
the senate would attach the pooling
bill as a rider. So effective was this
alleged exposure that, although the
bill itself was given nothing but
commentator on the floor, it was
defeated. Mr.. Hatch Gem, Mo- at

WILSON CONFIRMED.
But Kyle Fails to Pull His Sioux
Falls Postmaster Through.


WASHINGTON, March 1.-The SEN
ate went into executive session at II 40
today, and Immediately confirmed the
nomination of Hon. w. l.. Wilson, of
west Virginia, to be postmaster gen.
eral. The motion for confirmation was
made by Senator Faulkner, to whom
the privilege was conceded on account
OF the fact that he represents Mr.. Will
sons state in the senate. Immediately
after the Wilson nomination was dis
posed of, the contested nomination of
A. D. Tinsley, to be postmaster at
Sioux Falls, S. D., was taken up and
proceeded with. This matter, being at
the head of the executive calendar,
has stood in the way of and prevented
all other executive business for sew
eral days past, and on this account has
attained an Importance that would moi
otherwise attach to it.
The committee on postoffices and
post roads reported it adversely, and
Senator Pettigrew, who has been de-
sirous of having the nomination re-
ported, has made an effort to secure
action in the belief that when a vote
should be taken 1t would result in
Mr.. Tinsley's defeat. Senator Kyle ia
voring Mr.. Tinsley, has made all
equally strong effort to prevent ac-
ton, and has demanded a quorum
whenever the question has been taken
up. Owing to the fact that all the re-
cent executive sessions have been
held late in the day after the departure
for their homes of a majority of the
senators, it has been impossible to Sc
cure a quorum. The executive session
was called early today in order to in

ent session, and thus prevent rejection

be allowed to stand in the way of Mr.

When the motion for Mr.. Wilson'S
confirmation was made, Senator Petit

THE RAMSEY DELEGATION

On various occasions since the be-
ginning of the session the local dele
cation to the state legislature has
furnished a theme for more or less
animated discussion between the
TWO local Republican organs. The
only question which seems to remain
undetermined is as to whether the
delegation is positively inimical to
the interests of the county or wheth-
er 1t is only useless. Whatever NAV

IN THE SENATE.
Sealing Award Suffers Another
Defeat.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The Ber-
ing sea differences between the United
States and Great Britain provoked an
animated debate in the senate late to-
day. Mr.. Cockrell has offered an
amendment to the pending deficiency
bill appropriating $4,000 for the ex-
penses of another commission of arbi-
tration to adjust the claims of Cana
dian sealers seized by the United
States. 1t was in line with the sug-
gestions of letter just received from
Secretary Gresham. Mr.. Sherman OPP
posed the second arbitra ton saying it
was dishonoroble and unwise that the
United States had not paid these claims
through the compromise of $425,0G0
heretofore urged by the president.
Mr.. Sherman prophesied much trouble
as result of reopening the subject

the court of arbitration, declared this
plan to pay Great Britain a lump sum
for the Canadian seizures was in vio-
1ation of the honor of the United
States. It had been proposed by the
president and had been properly reject
ed. Mr.. Morgan asserted that Great
Britain through it's emissaries here
was systematically violating the
Paris award. With great vehemence
he declared that the payment of the
$425,00O would be a disgrace to the
United States and to the administra-
ton. The contest was so effective that
Mr. Cockrell withdrew his proposition.
The deficiency bill was kept steadily
before the senate through the day and
was passed after struggle of three
hours The claims of California, Ore
gon and Nevada against the govern
ment aggregating about $5,0O0,0O0 was
passed without the formality of a nay
and yea vote. The appropriation of
s1S9,OOO to the Southern Pacific rail-
way and another of about 100000 for
French spoliation claims and war
claims were also passed.
Eulogies were pronounced on the
Late Representatives Lisle, of Ken
of Illinois and Hoke, of Ohio.
AT THE EVENING SESSION
about forty such bills were passed, in
GLIDING the following:
Increasing to $50 the pension of Maj.
Cen J. H. Staeh1, correcting the muster
of George P. Corb, late an adjutant
general United States volunteers, and
authorizing the president to place on
the retired list Augustus Boyd, with
the rank of captain.
Then, in accordance with a specific
order, the senate proceeded to the con-
sideration of the resolutions on the
death of the following-named repre-
sentatives: Marcus c. Isle, Kentucky;
Myron B. Wright, Pennsylvania; Philip
Sidney Post, Illinois, and George w.
Houck, of Ohio.
Euiogistic remarks were made as fol-
lows:

Lindsay, Mitchell (Ore) and Black

In memory Of Mr.. Wright, by Messrs.
Cameron, Daniel and PETER.
In memory of Mr.. Post, by Messrs.

In memory of Mr.. Houck, by Mr..

At 1910 the senate adjourned.
The general deficiency bill was then
passed, and the senate proceeded to
the considerati ton of unobjected private
pension bills, and bills to correct mill
tary records.

ter of prescribing the treatment in
and the treatment could be admin
istered by one Of the corps of hos
pital physicians after he had taken a
brief course of instructions from the
Keely institute. The course of four
weeks required for the treatment
and the cost of administering it, it
is estimated, would not involve an
expense to the state Of over 800, and
it is safe to say that the average
cost to the state for it's inebriate
wards has far exceeded that amount
in the past.
The national government and sew
eral of the states have tried the
experiment and pronounced it an
unqualified success, and, if it is so,
there is no reason why Minnesota
should not adopt it. The present
system of dealing with inebriates
is the worst kind of a failure. They
are simply restrained from crafty
ing their appetites while in con-
finement, and generally celebrate
tllClI lSicdSe ny oil lluIlSuldIS lS-
turn to their bibulouS habits. Mod
ern science has found alcoholism to
be a specific form of disease, and the
subjects of it, when they become
wards of the state, should be treated
scientifically and as economically as
possible. If this treatment of four
weeks duration is effective and per-
manent there is no question that it is
cheaper in the long run than the
present system of restraint, leav-
ing out of the question the humanita-
rian aspect of the matter The pro-
prietors of the gold treatment as
sert that the treatment is much more
successful in this than in the South
ern or Eastern climate, and if this
be true it is another argument for
its adoption in some form.
The house committee OIL temper
ance has two or three bills before
it, any one of which could be so
amended as to provide a means for
trying the experiment at COMPARE
lively small cost.
