HHRMON'9 LEAP.
He Jumps From the Wagon
Bridge to the Water.

About two hundred people gath
cred on the bank of the Mississippi
near the Broadway bridge at l
O'Clock Tuesday to see Harry
Harmon, of California, leap from the
top of the wagon bridge, a distan:e
Of about 40 feet. Harmon came out
in tights and with the aid of lad
der and cleats mounted the top OF the
truss on the north side of the bridge.
A pretty stiff breeze was blowing,
but after steadying himself for Il
moment he made the leap backward,
turning a complete sOmersault and
struck the water feet foremost. He
then swan to the boom, came out
and ran to the shore.
1t was the opinion of all that Har-
mon is all he claims TO he and there
is no doubt in the minds OF those
present that he can jump seventy-six
feet, turn two somersaults and light
ON his feet.

Honest City Government.

Nothing could better illustrate the
soundness Of our
American body polite than this
general awakening in favor of honest
city governments and progressive
social work in our population
centres. Our city governments have
been our most co rspiciOus failure and
the most dangerous Of all the evils
which threatened our national life.
Having finally awakened to a full
appreciation Of the facts as they
were, the American people are
bestirring themselves to make the
the cities wholesome and good. They
will not accomplish rything by
virtue OF wave OF enthusiasm. but
the new movement will not prove
itself a passing within. 1t is based
upon sound principles, and it is
supported by the deep determination
of thousands OF men and women who
are capable of persistence through
long years. Theirs is a determine
ton to bring our American cities up
to the standard of the best American
ideals, and also up to the standard
of the best foreign achievements in
municipal organization and improve
ment.-From ''Our Civic Rem
aissance," by Albert Shaw, in the
April Review of Reviews.

THE LEGISLATURE
Senate Defeats the Bill to Elect
Railway Commissioners
by Direct Vote.
The SCALPER BILL TO PASS.
Two Measures Occupy the
Entire Day in the
Lower House,.

ST.. PAUL, April 10.-The senate
Saturday morning killed S. F. $50,
providing for the election Of railroad
commissioners by the people. If vote
had been secured two or three weeks
ago the bill might have gone through,
but the lobby has been getting in some
heavy work and the bill was kicked
around until it was killed.
Senator Spencer was opposed to the
bill because it would result i'll a par
tisan board. Senator Stevens said this
was a step in the direction Of disin-
tegration. The people did not ask Tor
this change and it was dangerous and
inexpedient. Senator Greer said the
people were just as capable to elect
railway commissioners as governors
Senator Thompson thought all publ"
officers should be elected by the people.
l. he bill failed Of passage by vote OF
% to "a.
The senate received about 100 petit
tons, all asking thu Legislature to APP
propriate $50, 900 for the entertainment
OF the national encanpment OF the &.
A. h. Nearly every county in the
state was represented, and it claims
that the names of a majority of the
old soldiers of the state are on the petl-
tions.
S. F. 81, introduced by Senator Cole.
and famous as the bill to distribute the
gross earnings tax, was defeated by a
vote of ~ to rs.
The Scalper bill.
The senate, in committee Of the
whole, with Senator Hanna III the
chair, took up S. Il. 1913 ~ special
order, known a. the "Theden scalper
bill
Senator Theden moved that the bill
be recommended to pass. Ite stated
that the bill is to repeal the scalper bill
Of two " as ago. 1t is practically the
same law that has been declared un-
constitutional in Texas and in other
States. 1t is similar to q bill vetoed in
California. 1t has be-. n 4 dead letter
in this state. 1t imposes penalty for
selling a ticket. The railroads, he said,
would probably honor the request of 9
member of the legislature or u rich
man to redeem u ticket, but would re-
fuse request made by II poor man
He claimed that the law works hard
ships and takes away property rights,
and contended that the purchaser of a
ticket had right to dispose Of it As he
wished.
|. LATTER considerable debate the bill wa
recommended to pass by u vote Of n
to 20.

BREAKING n LANDING
The Mlssisoippi River Lumber
Company'o Crew Now at
Work.

The landing of the Mississippi
River Lumber company above the
Pine Tree Mills. containing about
six million feet of logs. is now being
broken. A crew in charge Of F. c.
Bolin, of Brainerd, is at work with
an engine.
The engine in use is a thirty horse
power with twin cylinders and was
formerly used for working pile
driver. 1t is placed on a wangan
and anchored in the river several
rods from the shore. The hosting
apparatus usually used on pile driv-
ers is in use and on the drum the
rope is wound.
An inch and a half rope is used,
and this runs from the drum
through Il block fastened on the
bank of the river some distance from
the shore, and is then fastened to
the log that binds the pile OF logs.
Tue order is given to haul and the
engine does haul with a vengeance.
Something has to come, generally
the log but sometimes the rope.
The log is pulled out and the Others
now loose tumble down after it and
into the river, where the men start
them out into the current and on
their way down river. The bunch
here will probably go to Winona.
This landing is probably the most
difficult and dangerous one to break
On the river. The logs were hauled
in on ordinary fiat cars, two lengths
on u car, and Of course the ends OF
piles are very near each other and
some places lap over. Had they
been unloaded from sleds or logging
cars the piles would have been
farther apart and much easier to
handle. AS it is the landing here is
very much like a jam for in parts OF
it the logs are turned every way.
The most dangerous part of the
. business is the hitching M the chain
to the log binding the pile, for a
man has to crawl under the pile
when it is liable to give way at any
time and crush him.
Mr.. Bolin could not say how long
the crew would be at work here,
but it will probably be over u week.
Anyone wishing to see a novel
s;uht shOn1d visit the landing anV
day this week.

Their Scales Not Sealed.

HILLS, Mimi, April l0.-One law on
the statute books the Hills merchants
would like to see repealed is the act pro-
viding for the sealing of weights and
measures. a few days ago suit was
commenced by various merchants
against several parties for store &C
counts, and they were very much sur
prised when the defense set up the
claim that the scales did not bear the
state seal and they were therefore not
liable. There is not sealed scale or
measure in the city.

IN THE HOUSE.

Two Measures Take Up the Entire Time Of
the Session.
The house considered two special or
ders, consuming the entire day in doing
so, defeating the first and passing the
second measure.
The first bill considered was that of
Mr.. Reeves, proposition to repeal the
present law under which mining COM
panies may elect to pay tax Of cent
a ton upon all iron ore mined i'll the
state in lieu Of the direct assessment
and taxation to which other property is
subject.
The discussion on the bill lasted into
the afternoon. The champions OF the
bill attacked the constitutionality of
the present law, and the opposition
held that the present law was satisfac-
tory and the proposed one specula-
ton. The bill was defeated by vote
OF IS to AZ.
The Banking Bill.
Immediately after the disposition OF
this bill the house took up the admins
tr,tion banking bill drawn by Bank
Examiner Kenyon and introduced in
the senate by Mr.. Wyman. The bill
was read by sections and adopted prac-
tically as it was drawn. Mr.. Robbins
stood sponsor for the measure in the
house, explaining it in detail and find
ing practically no opposition. The bill
changes, in one form or another, nearly
every section Of the present banking
law, but the trainers Of it hold that IT'S
provisions are remedial and conserva-
tive, throwing around the banks OF the
state restraints that are essential to the
safety and security OF depositors, at the
same time simplifying the system by
which the banks express their &C.
countability to the examiner.
