DULUTH NORMAL SCHOOL.
James IT. Hale Talks About the Need
of If

or
Among the visitors at the session OF
the legislature yesterday was James
I. Hale, a prominent Duluth mining
man. who came down from the head
or the lakes to ascertain what prog
ress had been made in the way of an
appropriation for the normal school at
that place. Mr.. Hale argues that there
is no normal school in the northwest
ern part of the state, the nearest one
being ait Moorhead, and that Duluth
with her $4,000 citizens and 10000 9th
ers in the county, is justly entitled
to such an institution. He argues
that railroads from all points in the
district center in Duluth, making it
very accessible, and cites the further
fact that most of the teachers now en-
gagged in Duluth hail from other states
and the East. This is due, he believes,
to the fact that the sons and daugh-
tiers of the residents in that northern
district are not given a fair chance.
Speaking of the matter yesterday, he
said:
THE citizens of Duluth have donated
to the state six acres in the eastern
end Of the city, and the normal school
board has recommended that the legis-
lature appropriate $4,000 toward the
construction Of a suitable building to
put upon this land. The normal school
committee of the legislature has visit
ed. Duluth, and, though most Of the
members approve of the site for the
school, some expressed the view that
they were asked to send too much
money in our district. AS to that, we
say that Duluth has never yet had any
state appropriation. whereas the school
fund receives all the royalties for our
iron lands, and, while I know that, ac-
cording to law, this cannot be used for
buildings, 1 apprehend that this fact
should be construed as being in our
favor. 1t appears there must be an
other school, for, If | am properly in

HODGE BILL WILL PASS,
1t Is CONSTITUTIONAL, Says the Senate
Judiciary.

The most important matter that
came up in the routine of the senate
session yesterday was the report of the
Judiciary committee on the Hodge bill
which aimed to make effective the con-
stitutional amendment providing for
the taxation of railroad lands The bill
was declared constitutional in the
opinion of the committee, and was ac-
cordingly voted upon favorably in
committee of the whole without dissent
At the opening of the afternoon ses-
sion Senator Wyman presented the re-
port of the finance committee, the ma
jority of which favored the appropria-
ton carried in the house bill for the
Hastings hospital. There was some
objection to the adoption of the report
at the time, and it was returned to the
chairmanof the committee for retention
until today.
General orders were then taken I'D
and there was some debate on the The
den bill prohibiting the transfer of ex-
empt property in satisfaction of debts
arising from the sale of Intoxicating
liquors. Senator Young moved that the
bill be indefinitely postponed.
Senator Sperry had the application
of the bill limited to retail sales SEN
ator Collester moved to refer the bill.

Double. Barreled Legislation.

A double-barreled legislature is
cunning contriyance. The object being
to prevent government by the people,
two chambers give two chances; that
which cannot be killed in one branch
may be slaughtered in the other. It is
like a man who, having survived the
ministrations of one doctor and rec0v-
cred, is at once placed in the hands Of
another and dies. Why should there
be two doctors?
And then, there being q possibility
that the people may enforce their de-
mands through both house and senate,
there sits, above both, king, called
president, with power to annul the
action Of both-one man who knows
more than sixty millions of people of
whom he was the other day an OBJ
scure member. In other words, the
public Is a horrible monster, which
must be chained by both legs and neck.
But. lest the people should coerce
house, senate and president to do some-
thing against the money aristocracy,
there is still another tribunal. A lot
of lawyers, mainly selected by the
great corporations, sit upon a bench,
with old women's gowns upon them.

The Hessians are going to save the

that they would do it. Carl Schurz
told us all about the details last week
in Harpers Weekly, but as suspicion
had gotten abroad that Carl's proph-
ecy was Of the same brand as that
used at the weather bureau, there were
still some doubters. Events, however,
have borne out the main features of the
prophecy, but as to the minor details
OF the methods, there remains some
uncertainty. For instance, Carl Schurz
says that next fall the original Hes
slams will nominate a candidate for
Congress in every district in the coun-
try. The question naturally arises as
to the method to be pursued in that
large number of districts in which
none Of the untainted yellow candidate

Fhis is the way it looks to me-"
This is quite remarkable contribu-
ton to the current literature" Of the
financial question by successful bus
mess man.
Mr.. Holland admits that all of his
prophesies have been unfulflled and
says that our condition has been worse
than imagined and the recovery will
take longer than was supposed. One
great truth, it seems, has come to him
an illumination from on highland
that is that all business and manu-
facture depends on the farmer" He
truly says we are debtor nation and
our Indebtedness is held all over the
world. Did 1t ever occur to Mr.. Hol-
land that so long as we permit our ma
tional creditors to fix the prices of our
products We will never be anything
else but debtor nation? Will lie con-
suit what is called the index number
tables, which show a constantly de-
creasing range of the prices Of average
ommodities, in which our interest
charges abroad are paid, and tell us
how we are to cease to be debtors if
this continues?
England's annual tribute from
America in interest equals at least
$40O, 1000, which may all be oxacted
in gold. We do not produce 10 per
cent of that quantity Of gold which is
available for payment, and must pay
in commodities at England's price. If
Mr.. Holland had a note due in his
bank, and his bank knew that he could
only pay in stoves, what power would
Mr.. Holland have assuming that the
banker was good business man") to
enhance the price Of his stoves?
There is much truth in Mr.. Hol-
lands statement Of conditions, but the
circular is remarkable in that there is
no suggestion Of a remedy. He does
not tell us to have confidence" he
breathes no word of hope of better
times from tariff legislation; he does
not advocate the retirement of the
greenbacks. We can infer from his
leaflet that there is no remedy unless
it be the discovery Of a cure for hog
cholera. Singularly enough, however,
in enumerating causes for conditions
he specifies in the same paragraph and
as concurring causes the increased ca
pacity for production of wealth by
electric devices and the destruction Ct
wealth by hog cholera. Now, Mr.. Hol-
land, let US not burst in ignorance.
Please, please, tell US whether the in
creased production of wealth due to in
vention or the destruction of wealth by
hog cholera is the cause Of our trou-
bles, or do both conspire to put US in
this miserable plight?
