O'Shaughnessey to Repeat His Re-
quest to Insurance Union.
Insurance Commissioner O'Shaughnessy
will adhere strictly to the ruling Of Gen.
Douglas in the matter Of the separation
circular of the union insurance organiza-
ton. The insurance commissioner stated
yesterday afternoon that he would take
no action until tomorrow, when he will
advise President Cramb again that, under
the ruling Of the attorney general, Min
nesota must be excepted from the states
where the separation resolution is APP
piled.
Ex-Attorney General Moses L. Clapp Is

asked if the matter would be tested in
the courts, he replied that it was 81 mat

of which he was not advised.
Attorney General Douglas has received

rHE MANITOBA objections.

Yesterday in our Eeighboring Canadian
province of Manitoba the elections for
the legislature were held. The result is
a very complete political turnover. For
eleven years the Liberals have been in
power in that province, and in the last
legislature they stood 36 to 1 "Conserva-
tives. When, in 1888, the Liberals sue
ceeded to power the popular call was for
a government railway to the United
States boundary, there TO connect with
all American reads, to compete with the
Canadian Pacific railway. And. it was
upon the unequivccal pledges of the Lib
erals to carry cut such policy that they
obtained power. Scarcely, however, had
they warmed their seats ere they aban-
doned the government railway, instead
making a contract with the Northern
Pacific railway under which every other
American railway was practically shut
out Of the province. So intense was the.
Indignation provoked that government de-

after the passage of the law abolishing
Catholic schools the question OF its con-
stitutionality was being fought through
all the courts Of jurisdiction in the Brit
ish empire, during all of which time the
passions Of men were reused as they only
can be on a religious issue; every other
issue was lost sight Of and the govern

eyes without the true conditions being
seen, blinded as they were by the dust
of the school question. Eventually, how

EDUCATIONAL TINKER1NG.

The resignation of Miss Saunders, the
principal of the Neill school, presented TO
the school board recently, has proven eff
fective in bringing out in strong relief
the unfortunate effect which the present
unsettled condition of affairs In school adj
ministration must necessarily have upon
the morale Of the teaching force of the
city schools. While the resignation is a
regrettable thing in itself, in view of the
known devotion of Miss Saunders to her
work and generally to the welfare of our
city schools, 1t is hard to withhold the
fleeing that the reasons stated by Miss
Saunders afford the fullest justification
OF her action.

Governor Falls to See How the Sal
aries Paid the Holders of Sine
cures Under the State Board of
Health Come Under the General
Classification of purchase of
ChemicaIs and Apparatus"
Gov. Lind yesterday sent to DR.. H. NJ
Bracken. as secretary Of the state board
of health, letter informing him Of the
rejection of a pay roll of employees sub
mitted by the board for approval from
the laboratory fund
This. Gov. Lind broadly suggests, does
not properly come within the province
of that fund. as he interprets the law.
and he puts it very pointedly in his let
ter to Secretary Bracken that he was Of
the opinion that with the standing ap-
preparation of $500 annually for the
board Of health, and $4,000 for the bureau
of diseases Of contagious animals, and
$1,000 annually for the gathering Of vital
statistics. the special appropriation of
$1,000 for preventing the spread of con-
tagious or infectious diseases among the
domestic animals, and $500 for each Of
the two years for establishing and main
tanning laboratory, the board had been
splendidly provided for.
Indeed. he would have felt inclined to
strike out the provision of the omnibus
appropriation bill providing for the labor
atory had it not been that the bills to be
audited therefrom would come under his
supervision. Gov. Lind points out that
the establishment and maintenance of a
laboratory. as therein provided for, does
not, in his judgment, include the pay
ment Of employees in the department,
especially as he has not been informed
of any increase in the department staff
consequent thereupon. The laboratory
fund. he thinks, might properly be
charged for its proper portion Of the cost
of janitors, but he not only declines to
audit the pay rolls when submitted
against that fund. but insists that the
previous charges in July and August,
which escaped his attention at the time,
be corrected. and set against the proper
fund.
The legitimate laboratory expense. for
chemicals and apparatus, he approves,
but not pay rolls.
