r1cKINLEY AND SILVER.

The Democrats, or at least some OF
the Democratic papers, have from
time to time during the last year or
two. shown themselves to be consider
ably worried over Gov. Mckinley's
position on the money question. They
have declared at different times that
he either had no views upon the ques-
ton, or was afraid to express them.
They have intimated that he was
troubled with peculiar views upon the
money question, and had leanlngs
toward the free coinage Of silver. In
fact they have charged him with oc-
cupying about every position imagln-
able upon this issue. and because he
moved along and attended strictly to
his own affairs, and did not rush into
print to explain his views, they have
attempted to place him in a false
light and insinuated that he either
lacked courage or ideas.
But Gov. Mckinley has shown when
the proper time comes he does not
lack either courage or ideas. 1t is re-
ported from ST. Augustine that an Of
fer was made him a few days ago, by
some of the leading politicians of
Georgia, that the delegation from that
state to the Republican national con-
vention would be solid for him on con-
dition that he would come out for
a free silver plank in the Republican
national platform, and that the gov
ernor with considerable indignation
replied: "If the Republican party
should declare for free silver | would
decline to become candidate and L
would quit the party forever" This
is the utterance of brave man, and it
will find a responsive echo in tens of
1t shows that Gov. Mckinley has
plenty of courage, fact which none
of his admirers ever for moment
doubted, as they surveyed his public
record, and that he will stand ever
true to the traditions of his
party On the question of honest money.
There is today passing over the coun-
try a momentary craze on the silver
question, and there are political
leaders who profess to believe that
the party can go very much nearer the
whirlpool of the 50-cent silver dollar
without injury, and that it will be a
good thing So to do, from every point
of view.
The Republican party has always
stood for dollar which, was Eat all
times the equal of every other dollar.
1t has favored the use of silver to the
largest extent possible consistent with
the safety of our financial system, but
if we should now depart from it's hon
Orable course, it would Esimply be to
take the downward path to ruin and
diShonor, and nothing could save it,.
1t cannot well depart from it's declara-
tion at Minneapolis in 1892, and it is
a position which if strictly adhered to
will surely triumph in the end. If the
Republican leaders of the nation will
speak out as clear and unheSitatingly
as has Gov. Mckinley, there will be no
trouble in the future as to the course
the party will take.

The house Judiciary committee
having decided that Minneapolis has
not the power to donate Loring park
to the state, it is to be hoped the cap
ital moving agitation will now cease,
and the time of the legislators be de-
voted to the business the legislature
has before it. The twins have taken
up enough of-;the states time with
their quarrels.

The house settled the city charter
question by passing both the Howard
bill and the Sheehan home rule bill.
The Sheehan will shave to be submit
ted to vote of the people before it
will become operative, and will need
some outlining legislation, but the
most of the cities of the state will
probably wait for this rather than try
the experiment of the Howard act. Q

THE LEGISLATURE
Senators Pass the Hastings
and Dakota Land For
fixture Bill.
AFTER THE FREIGHT RATES.
A Horizontal Reduction Bill
Discussed but Not Yet
Passed On.

ST. PAUL, March 26.-The senate had
long discussions upon three important
bills Monday. One of these related to
the forfeiture of the rights of the Hast
ings and Dakota Railway company,
which passed the body. Another is
Senator Miller's bill to declare express
companies common carriers and to place
them under supervision of the railway
and warehouse commission. A new
bill was introduced for the original one
on this subject, which was lost, together
with one bearing on the same matter
that had been indefinitely postponed. A
third bill is the one introduced by Sena-
tor Culkin to make horizontal cut of
30 per cent in freight rates on roads of
less than 80 miles. This bill was not
disposed of and its discussion is to be
resumed.
The Forfeiture Bill.
The bill providing for the forfeiture
of the Hastings and Dakota lands
caused long and heated discussion.
Senator Young, the author of the bill,
argued on the merits Of the measure
and reviewed the history of the grants
at some length. Several other sena-
tors made addresses on one side or the
other and the bill was recommended to
pass. The rules were then suspended,
the bill read a third time and passed by
a vote Of 30 to 6.
The report of the judiciary committee
on S. E. AS was to the effect that it
would be constitutional if passed. This
was Senator Miller's bill to declare ex-
press companies common carriers and
place them under the supervision of the
railway and warehouse commission.
Al attempt was made to make the bill
a special order for Thursday but this
failed and the measure was placed upon
general orders.
The Morning Session.
A bare quorum of senators were
present at the opening of the morning
session. Senator Roverud caused rip
pie by introducing a resolution provid-
ing that henceforth lobbyists shall be
excluded from the floor of the senate.
The resolution was generously seconded
but Senator Keller spoiled the fun by
giving notice of detase.
In committee of the whole S. F. 469,
to provide for the organization and reg
ulation of credit guarantee corporations
was discussed and progress reported.
The same action was taken on S. +. so,
to bring private banks under the juris-
diction of the public examiner. The
following bills were recommended for
passage without opposition:
Authorizing the board of county COM
missioners in certain cases to appoint a
supervisor of assessments
Relating to town insurance companies
and authorizing loans by the officers
thereof
To provide for the incorporation of COM
panies designed to loan money to the in
digent and defining the powers and liabili-
ties of such.
Relating to the allowance of the ac-
counts of the executors and admins

THE LEGISLATURE
Administration Pine Land
Bill Easily Defeated in
the House.
THE STAPLES MEASURE GOES
Hastings and Dakota Land
Grant Bill Made Spe-
Cial Order.

ST. PAUL, March %. The admins
tration and the pine land investigating
committee ran athwart one another in
the house Friday, with the result that
the committee did" the auditors de-
partment in as decisive ''go" as the
solons have yet had a chance to see.
There have been two pine land bills in
troduced in the house, one by Mr..
Staples, backed by the committee, and
the other by Mr.. Gibbs, r. G. Dunn,
the state auditor, being the author. On
the Gibbs bill the committee on public
lands, of which Mr.. Staples is chair
man. reported recommending indefinite
postponement, and it was on this point
that the issue was drawn. The at
tempt was to have it placed on gene al
orders, but it failed of accomplishment
and the house turned down the state
auditor and registered it's confidence in
the committee at the same tine by a
strong majority vote.
The chief difference between the two
bills was that the Dunn bill allowed
state pine lands to be sold on estimates
of the cruisers, while the Staples bill
required all sales to be made on timber
rs scaled and not as estimated. The
Staples bill was reported favorably by
the committee after the action on the
Gibbs bill and made a special order for
Wednesday at 2 p. N.
Some Bills Passed.
The house, under suspension of rules,
passed II. F. 439, to amend the laws of
1878, relating to state printing and to
create the Office of state printing ex-
pert, and to determine his salary and
the manner of its payment. Ell. f. no,
posit to the state treasurer, was also
passed under suspension of rules.
The same course of procedure was
taken with regard to FL. f. 46, relating
to justices of the peace, and Ell. f. 372,
making a permanent appropriation for
the use of the state entomologist in his
work
Census Bill Defeated.
Under a special order the house at Q
o'clock took up the census committees
bill providing for the taking of census
of the population, mineral and indus
trial wealth and mortgaged and bonded
indebtedness of the state. The debate
waxed warm from the very beginning,
the opposition showing up very strong.
The main objection to the bill was the
provision for taking a census Of any
thing but an enumeration of population.
After several amendments had been
adopted vote was taken and the bill
declared lost-47 to so.
Mr.. jacobson moved that the census
committee be instructed to frame a new
bill providing for the taking of a CEN
sus of the population only, and this mo-
ton was carried, after which the
house adjourned.
The appropriation called for in the
new bill, it is understood, will not ex-
coed 1000, or the same forces will
line up for another fight on the BILL
