DELEGATION Is SPLIT.
Cut in Judges Salaries Stirs Up
Ramsey Men.

The Ramsey county delegation in the house
of representatives certainly is having its own
Speaker Jones yesterday saved the members
from not only agreeing to split out from each
other, but to issue three-sheet posters about
the matter to the wide world.
The Pottgieser bill to reduce the salaries
OF the Ramsey county district judges did the
mischief. 1t is Senate File 95, and has passed
the upper body, reducing the figures from
5000 to SO, 500 annually. When the bill was
given its first house reading Mr.. Mcdonald
wanted it referred to the Judiciary commit
tee, where its constitutionality might be
passed upon. He explained that the terms of
the judges alternated. and that when the
next whose terms expired were either re-
elected or others chosen in their places,
they would receive but 500 while the others
$1,000 as at present. Mr.. Barta interposed
vigorous objection to this reference and in
sisted that the bill go to the Ramsey dele
cation.
The delegation Is split, and he knew 1t,
but he wanted some action taken on the mat
ter by it's members one way or another.
Messrs Mcdonald, Barta and Johns are all
members of the Judiciary committee. AS in
tlmated, Speaker Jones said he would hold
the matter over until today, when the delega-
ton might notify him what reference it pre-
ferred for the measure.
He was anxious only to consult the interest
Of the Ramsey members.
The meeting Of the Ramsey delegation at
noon, although the senate bill was not then
at hand for consideration was not calculated
to engender the most harmonious feelings.
Previously. recorded in the proceedings
yesterday, the members had gone awry on
the water frontage tax, with two reports. and
one of these dissented from, and the bill to
authorize the county commissioners to issue
$S5, 900 worth Of bonds for the construction
and maintenance of macadamized roads in the
county proved second stumbling block. This
bill. which was introduced by Mr.. Johns at
the instance Of the commissioners, was killed
by the joint delegation, but subsequently,
upon the motion Of Representative Dahl, Of
Hennepin. resuscitated and placed upon gen
eral orders.
At the noon session yesterday baltimore
Mcdonald and Snodgrass favored the passage
of the bill. the first two speaking in favor of
1t. Messrs. Dunn. Lloyd and Barta were In
favor of the roads but considered the expend-
tture a needless addition to the county and
city taxes, and were thus opposed to the bill.
Mr.. Johns was in the chair. Messrs. Harry
Hardick and Gates A. Johnson spoke in favor
of the bill. and upon the question the six
members were lined up as indicated, three
for and three against. Mr.. Scott, present, did
not vote.
In this condition of affairs Mr.. Johns voted
with the favorables, and the bill Is now on
general orders. recommended for passage
There promises to be fun when 1t is reached
by the committee Of the whole. The dele
cation considered other matters.

THEY HEARD THE ROAR.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Dear Sir: Your editorial on Taxing Edu-
cation" published Saturday, March p, will
be readily agreed &c by any person of culture
and refinement but it seems to me that
you did not say more than half of what ought
TO be said in condemnation of the clause of
the Dingley bill to which your structures
apply. In providing for a duty Of % per cent
I'D valorem on ali books imported from
abroad. the Dingley bill strikes a blow at a
large class of people who, least of all. de-
serve a check upon their aspirations and
who will feel the duty imposed as a direct
attack upon their slender purses. Some
show Of logical reasoning is apparen. in the
protective policy such, but is entirely
wanting in this proposal to tax all kinds Of
books without discrimination. There are
many Institutions in our country which for
special purposes, use foreign text books. for
which the home market cannot and does NOT
furnish an adequate equivalent The punils
Of such institutions are mulcted by that
duty in a manner which cannot but hammer
them sorely in their struggle for an elura
ton. Again, there are thousands Of advanced
scholars who draw upon foreign literature

special lines of study. In some branches Of

FISH AND GAME REPORT.
Sam Fullerton Furnishes the House
What 1t Asks For.

Executive Agent Sam Fullerton, of the
state game and fish commission, submitted
ance with resolution introduced some time
ago. In the report is included portion Of
the annual report for the year ending Dec.
1, 1885, and says in substance:
The disbursements of the commission have
all been made by our treasurer Mr.. Won
Baumbach, and no money is paid out except
by voucher signed in duplicate. One copy
is placed with the state auditor and the other
is retained by our treasurer. full statement
of all disbursements will be found in these
two reports. The amount Of money received
from sources other than from our yearly ap-
preparation Is from licenses issued in inter
national and interstate waters, list Of which
is hereby furnished.
We have collected for licenses in interna-
ttonal waters during the years 1895 and 1896
the sum Of $5,500.40. We have deducted the
sum Of $500 for locating printing and other
expenses. We also collected the sum of
$307 for licenses to catch whitefish during the
month Of November and for interstate licenses
in the Mississippi and st. Croix rivers
We received from the sale of game and fish
confiscated up to the first Of December, 1895,
the sum Of $5270.83. At that time we had
considerable game on hand which was in cold
storage and does not appear in this report,
all OF which has since been sold and 81 500
turned over to the state treasury from the
proceeds. We have still game on hand
amounting to, think, $780,
IL is impossible for me to furnish the ex-
act figures and the names Of the men from
whom we have received money, as that would
entail a system of bookkeeping, which we
can not at the present time afford
We don't know who the real owners are
as shipments are made under fictitious names
without any card and it is Jumped as
so much fish and game sold. We put the
items down as they come in, and sometimes
we would have an accumulation of game in
cold storage and we would simply enter 1t in
our books as game sold.
We believe that if our augmentation was
increased where we could employ a book
keeper that it would be more satisfactory to
the commission and to the state at large OF
course our disbursements could not be other
wise than satisfactory, as no money is paid
out except by voucher, one of which as
stated Is filed with the state auditor and
the other with our treasurer

Juliet was the role in which she first essayed

she brings to St. Paul this season is probably
the most faithful and elaborate production of

in this country. 1t is said that is has cost
Miss Mather $4,000 to put this elaborate

Since 1868, or during the last %
years, Cuba has been in open revolt
nearly 13 years. The ten years war
was very costly in blood and treasure,
both to the mother country and the
island, and there had not been a great
recovery from its ravages when the
present Instruction broke out in Feb
ruary 1895. Since the last uprising the
Spanish government has sent to Ha-
vana more than 10000 men, the flower
OF the youth and ehivalry of the na-
ton. OF these it is admitted that more
than 5000 have been killed in battle
or died OF disease, and it is probable
that the number is nearly double that.
Nearly half as many more have been
sent back to Spain crippled by wounds
or broken by disease, to be burdens
upon the communities in which they
live.
