TRAVELLING LIBRARY BILL.
The afternoon session Of the house
was given up to the consideration Of
bills on general orders, with Mr.. Meyers
in the chair. The first measure taken
up was the bill for travelling libraries,
S. F. SO, introduced by Senator Greer
in the senate. and so strongly support
ed by Mr.. Staples. The bill was de-
feated when considered before in the
house and was saved from humiliation
by a motion by Mr.. Staples, by hav-
ing the bill reconsidered and laid on the
table.
The bill was first on general orders,
and Mr.. Staples in the initial speech
explained it's provisions briefly and
hoped it would pass. Quite a number
of members who had voted against the
bill reported change of heart and ad-
vocated its passage. Among these
were Mr.. Davies, Mr.. Stockwell and
Mr.. Coe. Of Hennepin. Each added his
weight of influence in favor Of the bill.
The bill was opposed by Mr.. Donnelly,
Mr.. Won Isehe and Judge Hicks. The
speaker made a strong plea for the bill.

H. F. 339, introduced by Joseph Under
leak, who certainly made a gallant,
dignified fight for it from start to fin
ish.
The house gave to this bill nearly
two hours, most Of which was taken UP
by the house orators, except Mr.. Jacob
son, who was suffering from a very bad
cold which prevents speech making
The arguments made in favor of the
bill We're that the county auditor was
the most important officer of the coun-
ty and that he should not be subject to
change every two years. The opposi-
ton argued that if the auditor was
good officer he could without trouble
be reelected whereas if he were a poor
officer two years was long enough.
This argument was put forth when the
measure was up before and was put
forth again and met not without some
considerable acrimOny. Mr. Schmidt
submitted an amendment, which was
to strike out the provision which ex-
tended the term Of the present county
auditors to four years. This was
adopted, as was also the amendment
providing that the law should go into
effect in 1900 The amendments split
up the house so evenly that a second
and even third counting of the yeas
and nays were asked for before the
chairman felt called upon to settle the
matter himself by voting himself.
When the amendments had been adop-
ted the house split again on the matter
Of recommending for passage, and when
this was settled the matter of recon-
mending for indefinite postponement
bore the same result in both cases be-
ing left with Chairman Meyers, who,
in spite of the trying conditions, man
aged the matter very commercially
Mr.. Staples took occasion to question
the accuracy of the count, but when it
was pointed out to him that the action
of the chair could not be construed as
inimical to the bill or for it, as the
case might be, he accepted the expla-
nation.

from the outset, had seen the house
tested sufficiently to satisfy him, 50

JUVENILE DELINQUENTs.
Probation Period Suggested in a
New Bill.

Senator Ozmun, by request, this
morning introduced a bill to establish
probation system for Juvenile delin-
quents in counties of over $4,000 in

ment in such counties of a probation
officer to be nominated by the execu-
tive committee of the state prison asso-

baton officer at any stage of the pro-
ceedings, and that officer is required

OCCUPATION TAX BILL.
Arguments in the Case Only on One
Side.

The senate adjourned at o'clock in
order to permit the judiciary committee
to use the senate chamber for pub
lie hearing on the department store
occupation tax bill. The Theden bill
was argued before the committee by
John H. Nickel, who was special col
lector during the short-lived career Of
the income tax, and has made a special
study of taxing powers. He main
tanned that the powers Of the legiSla-
ture were broad, so long as the bur-
dens of taxation were imposed upon
the people of the state in an equitable
manner.
G. n. Nelson, attorney for the Gold
en- Rule, st. Paul, opposed the bill,
holding that as a revenue bill it must
originate in the house of representa-
tives, under the constitution. 1t was
pointed out that the bill only authoriz-
ed city councils to levy a tax. MI
Nelson stated that the department
store people and their representatives
had been taken by surprise, and had
not prepared any legal arguments on
the points raised.
Senator Culkin said he was sur
prised that the department store peo-
pie should profess that they were taken
by surprise. If the bill was to be
beaten, it should be beaten by a vote
in the senate, and not by procrastin-
alton.
Senators McHale and Yale wanted to
give the fullest opportunity for argu-
ment
Senator Sperry, who presided said
that if the attorneys were not ready to
present their arguments, they would
have to take their chances on public
hearing later.
Editor Hall, of the ST. Paul Trade
Journal spoke of the effect of the con-
centration of trade in these stores on
the taxable valuation, through it's des-
truction Of the rental and real value
Of city property. He argued that the
committee should stand for the bill as
the bill, or at least some legislative re-
strictions was absolutely requisite to
the proper continuance of business.
Louis Nash said the legislature of
Minnesota was called upon to take
stand between the good Of the people
and the onslaught Of concentrated cap
ital. The Standard oil trust had
choked off all competition, by temper
airy cuts in prices, only to recoup it's
losses from the peoples pockets. This
course, less direct and immediate per-
haps, was the tendency of the depart
ment stores. He appealed to the MEM
berS Of the committee not only as law
yers and legislators, but as citizens,
patriots and humanitarians, to take
such action as would save the nation
from it's foes.
That closed the case for the advo-
Gates Of the bill, each side having
been allowed but three speakers. The
other side not having anything to
offer, Senator Schaller urged Counsel
Nelson to, for the sake of argument,
assume that the committee belived that
a wrong existed, and endeavor to con-
vince it that the existing wrong would
not be corrected by the passage of the
bill proposed. The attorneys present,
however, declined to go into the case in
that respect, and the committee then
went into executive session.

WOULD SAVE THEM MONEY.
Senator Durham WouId Abolish Big
Corporation Fees

Senator Durham introduced a bill in
the senate yesterday to abolish the
fees now required from business con-
Germs which file articles of incorpora-
ton, the fees being proportionate to
the amount of the capital stock. The
bill is in line with measures which
have been taken in other states which
have had the same practice up to re-
cent years. 1t would, however, ma
terially reduce the revenue of the state,
at least in certain years. For instance,
during the fiscal year ending July last,
the receipts from that source were over
$4,000, this being unusually large OH
account Of the reorganization of the
Northern Pacific, which required an
entirely new fee. The year before the
fees amounted to $4,000 which is prob
ably a fair average.

ODDS AND ENDS.
Several Minor Matters Touch the
House Legislation.

The respect which the legislature Of Min
nesota feels for Col. John H. Stevens, Of
Minneapolis, was the basis for its action in
passing bill to appropriate 81, 500 a year for
the State Forestry association. Judge Hicks
made strong plea for the bill because Of his
friendship for Col. Stevens, the father OF the
society, and Mr.. Donnelly voted for the bill
against his judgment. he stated, out Of re-
gard for bis old friend.
