Thrust From Feig Didn't Even Touch
jacobson,

When the towns and counties report
was sent up yesterday morning by the
committee, its chairman, Henry Feig,
took occasion to hurl a warm one''
at his old friend and fellow Republican.
Mr.. jacobson, of Lac qui Parie. It is
we'll known that the committee in it's
consideration Of several measures be-
fore it has had one Or two heated con-
troversies. This is especially true in
connection with the bill to organize I'M
organized counties. Mr.. Feig ANNOUNCE
ed gravely enough that "the committee
on towns and counties had attempted
to make the bills all satisfactory to
Mr.. Jacobson" With this bold and I'M
looked for thrust, the Lac qui Parie
member was nonplussed. He sat still
in his seat and glanced over his glasses
in mild wonder, as if to see in the face
Of the man from Kandiyohi some in
dication Of his meaning. What he saw
does not appear for when he spoke. it
was only to say: 81 wish to thank the
gentleman" Then the business of the
house was resumed.

Senate Making Little Roadway on
General Orders,

The debate on the civil service bill
yesterday prevented the senate from
getting very far on general orders, and
the prospects are, indeed, that little
progress will be made in clearing up
the now more than twenty-f bills
which are on that docket for consider.
alton, as the report of the reappor-
tlonment committee is a special order
for this afternoon, and will no doubt
take up some time.
The Theden bill, to prevent LIQUOR
dealers from Selling exempt property
OF purchasers of liquor who are in debt
to them, which was debated at some
length yesterday, has already stirred
up some dissension. and If II oets

alive, the indications of yesterday will
have undergone marked change.

Railroad and Express Companies Do
Not Give I'm

A report was received from the

containing what purported to be a.
reply to the questions asked in reso-
luton by Senator Miller, calling for a
report from the railroad companies on
the rents received from express and
other transportation companies operat-
ing on leased railroad lines. Senator
Miller said that under the systems
OF bookkeeping employed by the rail-
roads, these rents we're not recorded
as such and that the report contained
none of the information wanted Sena-
tor Miller wants to- get at the earnings
of the express and sleeping car com
panies, as we'll as the earnings of rail-
roads from. rentals. and will introduce
another resolution. ~

One of the Tax Bills Is Passed by
the Senate

The tax and tax laws committee's bill
providing for the semi-annuaf payment
of taxes was again debated when it
was reached on the calendar. Senator
Roverud wanted the bill to apply only
to counties with a population of over
10000, or in fact, limiting it to Henne-
pin, Ramsey and ST. Louis counties.
He said it would require a double force
in the offices of the rural county treas
urers.. Senator Greer said the bill was
tion, and the Roverdd amendment
would take the life right out of it, After
long discussion the amendment was
lost and the bill was then passed.
Those voting no were Knatvold, Lar
son, Reishus, Roverud, Sweningsen and
Yale.
