STARTED IN THE SENATE
YESTERDAY.
THE NEW MILITARY CODE,
WITH SOME AMENDMENTS, RECON-
MENDED IN COMMITTEE OF
WHOLE TO PASS.
HE NEW MILITARY CODE,
HELP FOR EXAMINER KENYON.
Bill Looking to- That End Killed at
the Request of It's Chief Cham
pion.

Exactly eighty-two bills were intro
duced in the senate yesterday after
noon, and Secretary Langum broke
the track record, if not the world S
record, by introducing the first batch
of sixty-four bills in an even sixty
minutes. 1t was hot work, but it was
better, for the senate than sitting there
all night.
There were few committee reports,
however, and the senators present
manifested some aversion to the prin-
cipal fights on general orders, although
some important measures were briefly
disposed of.
The new military code was recon-
mended to pass in committee of the
whole, with some amendments, and
Senator Ozmun's endeavor to put the
corrupt practices act in shape where
1t could command the public respect
was also Endorsed.
The bill giving Bank Examiner Ken
yon additional help and a large ap-
preparation was not only killed, but
killed at the request of it's chief cham
pion, Senator Wyman, who desired to
see it's tortures mercifully put an end
to at an early date.
The military code was amended by
Senator Ringdal so as to limit the
scope of the private inquisition which
1t authorized to it's former shape.
Senator Cul1in's bill to provide that
Justice court summons may be served
as district court summons was opposed
by a number Of tbs country members
as an attack on the sheriffs and con-
stables, but it was recommended to
pass, with an amendment, II to II.
A number of amendments were add
ed to the Young bill to prevent the
spread of contagious diseases among
domestic animals, and the bill was
finally referred to the finance commit
tee ..
The committee of the whole made a
laughing stock of the corrupt prac-
tees act" but finally recommended the
passage of the Ozmun bill to amend
it by the close vote Of II to II. One
of the amendments proposed, but de-
feated, was to prohibit prosecutions for
perjury under the act. The bill as it
passed draws closer lines within which
the candidates bill of expenses must
conform.
James S. O'Brien's appointment as
surveyor general of logs and lumber
for the first district was confirmed

A telegram of yesterday says the New York
Sun prints the following editorial paragraph ::
Long before his talents had made the i'm
preston, even in Minnesota, which they were
destined to make, the fame of the Hon. Nick
Early and often it was here set down that
the Hon. Nick Pottgieser was the rising states
man and sure to be numbered among the most
splendid ornaments of the Gopher reserve.
Since then the Hon. Nick Pottgieser has risen
and perched high. In committee and on the
floor no other member of the Minnesota senate
is half so inspiring. No other member in
vents more numerous or ADLER projects of
legislation. The Hon. Nick Pottgieser is at
the top, and if there is a higher and manner
top he is the man to climb up to and occupy
It.

VIRGINIA LIKES OUR LAW
Legislature May Pass Railroad Com
mission Act Like Ours. "


Virginia is contemplating the passage
of Railroad Commission Act similar to
that now in forge in North Carolina
Members of the Legislature of that State
have written here for copies of the North
Carolipa law. also a statement of tax
assessnents under it and such other par
flculars as may aid them in drafting the
new law. 81
Virginia at present has only one Rail-
road Commissioner, Maj. Jas. @. Hill.
and he has little power-no authority
to make rates, fix tax assessments or
exercise judicial powers Complaints are
iald before him as in this State, but he
mas no right to pass upon them. He
can simply bring them to the attention
of the road complained of and ask their
adjustment. If they refuse. the matter
is taken up in the courts in the regular
way.
