In the house of representatives
next Wednesday some of the Repub-
lican members will undertake to
prove that what is sauce for the
goose is not sauce for the gander.
Senator Smith, Republican, was
properly seated because his oppo-

regarding contests. Mr.. Allen, who
contests the seat of John J. Fur
long, failed to comply with the same
requirement. But then, Furlong is
a Democrat, and that's different.

MEASURES OF MERIT.

The suggestion of Representative
Cant, Of Duluth, that he would be
satisfied if the legislature should
pass a half dozen bills of merit,
even at the risk of defeating small
measures, is worthy of commenda-
ton. Mr.. Cant was speaking of the
Schurmeier bill, which proposes to
make citizenship and not mere
residence a qualification of cleo
tors. One other measure of
merit is the proposition of Sem
ator Howard to revise the in
solvency laws. Business men favor
an amendment that will give credit
ors a fair show when a business
man becomes insolvent. They want
a trustee named, to settle UP an in
solvent estate, who will deal fairly
with all the creditors, and not permit
q relative or interested party to
gObhle up the major part Of the
estate, on claims that may be
trumped up, and thus defeat the
claims of innocent creditors who
have furnished the means to give
"a irresponsible business man an OPP
portunity to feather his nest and
then make an assignment. There is
also q demand that an insolvent
shall be able to pay a reasonable
portion of his debts before he can
be discharged from further liability.
These features are provided for in
the bill to be. presented in the senate
this evening by Senator Howard.
There are notable instances where a
firm or individual has taken advan-
tage Of the insolvency laws to lay
up competence and make an as
signment that would relieve him
from liability for his debts. The
law should provide for subjecting
all the property owned, directly or
indirectly, by al insolvent to the
payment Of mis- debts, especially
such property as has been accumu-

lated by him in the business as
signed. The law should provide that
preference to near relatives should
be more closely inquired into, to
ascertain what, if any, fraud has
been perpetrated by presenting
large claims by relatives or close
business friends

A student OF Preyer's book has hit upon
a less scientific but more poetical
scheme of teaching the same thing to
a little child by means OF flowers and
other natural objects. The difficulty,
of course, is to be sure of uniformity OF
color in natural objects throughoutthe
year. Even u very young child soon
learns TO associate the idea OF color
from the object itself when yellow

presented after a drill with different

red rose and a yellow $ are quickly
recognized and differentiated, and the
quality Of color is accentuated when a
red rose and a yellow pansy are brought
