The TIMES has u pleasant surpr lse
for it's readers this week in the an
nouncement that the much talked OF
Hall resolutions on the anti-pass ques-
ton have been adopted by the as
sembly in their origi nal state. 1t was
q hard won victory for the enarIetlc
and stalwart statesman, Hon. A.
nall, CfDunn county, who has worked
with untiring vim for several years Q
free the people from the evils connect
ed with this unwholesome practice.
Justice and political purity on the one
hand was pitted against the selfish
gree d on the part Of many OF the legs
lators to ret ain their tree transpor
tation on the other. The substitute
as agreed upon in the Judiciary com
mittee doing away With the pass
system only after their salaries had
been doubled, WAS IN outrageous I'M
position upon the people and would
put the Republican party IN a mos
j iculous light IN the future. But
when the obnoxious substitute was
voted down and the original resolu-
tions passed, it looked as ii the
flood gates OF reform had been raised
and tue outpouring OF the long pent-
up tide allowed to sweep all before 1t.
The resolutions were adopted by an
overwhelming majority, but whether
the voce was prompted by motives o.
nobleness on the part OF many OF the
assemblymen or from fear OF the
wrath OF All indignant people, is not
known, but whatever the motives
may have been it is not for us to
question. Those men should have fuli
credit for doing their part to correct
an evil that amounted to but little
less than CRIME 1t is only Justice
to say that the assemblymen, both
from this county and that OF st.
Croix, voted in favor Of the measure.
What will be done with the resOlu
tiors in the senate is not known, but
there too, the same influences that
operated in its passage in the rs.
sambly will no doubt act in the SEN
ate which will result i'll it's pa ssage.
However If til y successfully run the
gauntlet OF the senate they will have
to tepass both houses OF the legis: AZURE
two years hence IN the same way a.
at this session aud finally be voted
upon by the people two years from
to day before they will become part
OF The c, institution of the state. So
it is plain to be seen that there are
plenty OF chances still remaining TO
CHEAT the people out of their just dues.
