CAPTAINS, NOT GLARS,
But Contemplated Changes Would
Make Them So.


A well-informed enlisted man of the
national guard in speaking OF the
meeting of the National Guard associa-
ton to be held at the capitol today at
II o'clock said:
"ThiS association comprises all COM
missioned officers Of the guard and
meets annually to discuss the state.
military blishment, and propose
measures for it's Improvement and
welfare. Although its recommends
tons are without actual authority they
carry great weight with the governor
and the adjutant general, so that rules
adopted at these meetings are in fair
way of becoming the laws Of the citi-
zen soldiery.
Minnesota has been more niggardly
with her national guard than most of
her sister states, and it so happens
that large proportion Of the expenses
of the companies must come out Of the
pockets of the boys themselves. who
are thus placed in the position of hav-
ing to pay for the privilege Of serving
the state. Such being the case, the
men feel a sort of Revolutionary spirit
of '76' getting the better of them, and
revert to the war cry of the an
cestors, No taxation without represen-
tation,' when the officers propose to
shut off their cherished right of civil
organization. 1t Is the civil organiza-
ton which disposes of the funds Of the
company accruing from dues and fines
of the members and distinct from the
very meager state appropriation which
is entirely controlled by the captain
and can only be legally expended for
uniforms and arms.
$50 it is that the civil organization
provides for the furnishing of company
quarters and armories, provides the
games and periodicals for the club
room and in some cases defrays the eX-
penses Of the social events of the body
Now comes the statement that the
National Guard association wishes to
place the captain in absolute and un-
questionable control of all company
funds, abolish civil meetings, and ever
lastingly sit down on all social func-
lions. I trust this is an exaggerated
statement, for, while the wild excite
ment pictured so wildly by another
paper is lacking in the fact, it would
hardly seem fair to the men to reduce
them to regular army serfdom, after
their long struggle against odds to
keep the standard Of the Minnesota
guard up to that of other states.
"It might be hard to secure recruits
under the new order Of things. A
young man might think more than
twice before pledging himself to be the
willing slave Of another fellow, no bet
ter socially or mentally than himself,
for three long years with no fun what
ever in prospect
The captain is already president of
the civil branch in most of the com
panies, In fact, all that can think of
at present, and as he has sole control
of the military organization and the
state funds, can see no reason for his
wishing to swallow everything else in
sight"

OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW,
But They Did Kiss, and Now They
Are I'm TrOus,Ie

The damage suit of Albert L. Win
ship against Thomas Jebb for the alien
alton of his wife's affections is still on
trial before Judge Kerr and a jury,
and is furnishing amusement for large
crowd of court loungers. Carl John
son, Mrs. Winship's son-in-law, testified
to the great amount promiscuous kiss
ing that frequently took place at the
Winship residence.
Jebb was called to the stand on the
opening Of the case for the defense, and
admitted that he had taken part in a
large amount of kissing at Winship's
house, but denied that there was any
thing vicious in it, because it was al
ways done in fun and when there were
a great many others present. Winship
had taken part in it himself and had en-
couraged it between Jebb and Mrs.
Winship. The reason witness had deed
ed the property to Mrs. Winship was
that his wife, who loved her as a sister,
made him promise to do so when she
was dying. He denied that he ever had
any improper relations with Mrs. Win
ship. Jebb is f1fty-nine years of age
Some other witnesses testified that
Mr.. and Mrs. Winship had not quar-
relied as Jebb claimed, but that they got
along peaceably together.

Another decision affecting, Indirect

Another decision affecting, Indirect
~, at least, the work Of the state game
and fish commission, was handed down
in the supreme court yesterday by
Judge CAVITY. 1t was in the case Of E.
Merriman, who sued the Great North
ern Express company for the value Of
certain fish which the express company
gave up to state officials who had no
right to seize it. The supreme court
sustains the decision Of the lower court,
which was against the express compa-
ny, and as result it Is likely that the
express companies will not put them
selves out in the future to help the state
authorities The following is the sylla-
bus in the case:
q. Merrman, respondent, VS.. Great Northern
Express Company, appellant.
Syllabus-Held, Oh. Az, Sp. l.. 1889, prohib-
ttng the catching fish in Hennepin county
during certain periods of the year, was modi-
implication by Oh. 124, G. L. 1893, so far as
inconsistent with the latter law.
In the month of May, 1895, plaintiff caught
In Lake Minnetonka and shipped By common
carrier to Minneapolis d quantity of fish,
where 1t was seized by game warden.
Held the taking of the fish being allowed
by law, the game warden had neither legal
right OF apparent legal right to seize the
FISH, and the common carrier is liable to
plaintiff for the value of the same.
Judgment affirmed. -Canty j.

him. The couple had been married but a
short time before he deserted his fascinating
Wife, and he brought the action with a view
to having the marriage declared void Judge
Willis decided against him, however, in the
first trial. and administered a severe rebuke
but granted new trial on the ground that

Illinois statutes during, the trial proved to
be otherwise. Judge Kelly took the case I'M

One great trouble with Vermont is
that our state affairs get no intelligent
discussion in the press Of the state,
generally speaking. When there is an
office in sight there is a terrific beating
of tontoms and intense excitement all
along the editorial line: but when
important reforms are urged affecting
every taxpayer in the state, the press
will not take pains to inform itself
and TO discuss the proposed reforms
with intelligence and authority. just
now large number of the state news
papers are all torn up over the Govern
or question and-are discussing il with
as much vigor as though the rcvolu-
ton of. the world and the tlestincs Of
po.terity depended ON it. Where it
doesn't make the least difference in a
general way. whether Mai. Grout or
Mr.. Stickney is Governor both being
