EVENTS OF THE WEEK I'm LEGIS-
LATIVE HALLS OF MIN
NESOTA.
T0RSON'S RAILROAD BILL
PASSES THE HOUSE. BUT MAY
BE HUNG UP SOME
WHERE.
SENATE DID SOME GOOD WORK.
Few Bills Passed, but Most of Them
Were Important Ones-kelier
and Fuller Scrap.

The passage by the house Of repre-
sentatives the past week of the Torson
hill to make the state railroad and
warehouse commission an elective body
Instead of an appointive one, as at
present, was perhaps the most impor-
tant action taken in that branch during
that time, although the wise" mem
bers say the bill is yet a long way
from becoming a law.
The opinion is freely expressed that
the measure will in all probability re-
ceive Its quietus when it comes to the
consideration Of the senate, and little
or no surprise is expressed that it
should have got past the members OF
the house, for many another bill of this
character has been fought through the
house on it's way to the senate guillo-
tine. If all of the bills which have
been voted through the house the last
twenty years had become laws, they
say, chaos would be the order of the
day in Minnesota Even if the Tor
son bill should by hook or crook run
the senate gauntlet, it is a safe bet
