one kind or another every few days The
inspection would not be better done than
IL is to-day
Don't understand that l am opposed to
having my work inspected by any capable
electrician My dcsiie is that the system
that works best should be 70 lowed and
have no ether. Ii is to my advantage that
the work should be done well. and that
immunity from danger from electrical cur
rents should he enjoyed by every one who
uses electricity. Wherefore, l do my lit
tie best TO see to it that this is the case.
1 am only DESTROYS that the city should
not incur additional expense, without re-
cetving corresponding benefit"
This statement Of the case fits the idea
of the majority of the electrical contract
ors, and gives their view of the matter 1t
would seem, nevertheless, that there have
been many fires that have been traced to
defective wiring and that something is
wrong\ with she system. This is the way
it appeals TO SUPP. Mcguire.
Mayor Myers was asked for his views on
the matter Of an electrical inspector. He
said he had rot gone into 1t. and could
not, therefore, speak with assurance 1t
appears Co the Mayor, however, that there
is no need for a special officer for the
work. lie does not think there is enough
of it to justify the city in paying a man
the requisite salary of Sl,O0O or $500 a
year to look after it.
Inc mayor says ~ II possible council
may take the matter IN. He does not
think, however. that 1t win be with the
view of passing an ordinance providing
for the establishment of the Office aud
fixing the salary II is to control. 1t will
be with . radically different plan. if az
all that Council will consider the meas
ure.
As the Mayor understands the situation,
it is not 50 much a question of a separate
and distinct office, but rather the looking
after the wiring by some one already -

A FARM AT STAKE.
An Unusual Suit Started by the HeatOn
Heirs.

S. B. Wilson, of this city, and Fowler
q Mcnamara, of Portage, Wis, on be-
half of Julius, Frank, Nellie May,
Bertha and Maude Heaton, who reside
in different towns, have given notice of
motion before Judge Severance to
vacate a Judgment which was entered
in 1889 in the action of Wealthy Phelps
VS. Geo. S Heaton and others.
1t is alleged that in October, 1867, a
trust deed was made by Geo. S. Heaton
and wife to Wealthy Phelps of the
northeast quarter of section fifteen, in
Lyra, known as the Cassidy farm, for
the benefit of Andrew j. Heaton, the
latter to receive returns from the land,
and to be decided to his heirs in fee
simple. In 1889, it is alleged, Phelps
brought an action to set aside the deed,
claiming that the trust clause had been
inserted by oversight. Andrew
Heaton was dead at that time, and the
guardian of his minor heirs admitted
the suit and judgment was accordingly
taken.
The Heaton heirs make affidavit that
they never knew of the Judgment,
which was only filed year ago They
ask to have the judgment vacated on
the grounds that there was no service
of the summons on the defendants,
that service was never accepted, that
what purported to be an acceptance
was Intellectual, that no appearance was
made by them and other reasons The
notice of motion has been served on
Pau & Pau and Judge Pond, of
Minneapolis.
The farm has changed hands several
times, but whatever the outcome of the
present action the purchasers will not
suffer.

SUSTAINED.
Demurrer in V0sbeck Case
Against City Upheld.
Judge Severance Holds That the City lis
Not RightfuIly a Defendant in
the $4,000 Suit.

Judge Severance Friday afternoon sus-
tanned the demurrer entered by City
Attorney Pau to the complaint III the
S15. 900 damage suit of Geo. Vosbeck.
The demurrer was based on the ground
that the city had nothing to do with the
matter and ought not to be made de-
PENDANT in the action.
The other defendants are the Manka-
to Citizens Telephone Co. and ID. M.
Kellogg, the contractor. OF course, SO
far as they are concerned, the demur-
rer has no effect other than to make
them the sole defendants.
Mayor Pau and City Attorney Pau
were feeling very good over the decision
this afternoon, as it let's the city out OF
a troublesome case The plaintiff may
appeal from the decision, but the city
legal advisors believe that the decision
rendered by Judge Severance will
stand.
Mayor Pau does not believe that the
city is liable for damages in the $4,000
suit brought by A. G. Hotaling on &C
count of the injuries received by his
son by being run into by a bob
sled load of boys as he was
crossing Mulberry street. Mayor
Pfau does not believe that municipal
corporation is liable for damages for in
juries in any kind of &C ase except when
the injuries are due to defects in the
streets or sidewalks.

Therefor Recommended
by Committee.

ST. PAUL. Feb. 1.-The sensation OF
the day in the legislature was COM
munication to the senate from Governor
Lind removing J. S. O'Brien from his
position as a member of the board OF
managers of the state prison and the APP
pointment of David Bronson OF Still
water in his stead. Governor Lind gives
as his reason for this action that Mr..
O'Brien made dishonorable propositions
to him in connection with his applica-
ton for the surveyorship of logs and
lumber of the Saltwater district. Under
the rules of the senate the communlca-
ton went over for the day and no dis
cussion followed it's reading. In all
probability the senate will acqulesce IN
the governors recommendation and per-
NIT Mr.. O'Brien if he so desires to take
his case into the court for settlement.
Routine Proceedings.
The senate took up the calendar dur
ing the morning session and passed
Senator Johnson's bill providing for the
discharge of inmates from the insane
hospitals when applications for dis
charge are signed by the superintendent
and the secretary of the board OF hos
pital trustees; also Senator Lords bill
regulating appeals from the probate to
the district court. Under suspension OF
the rules H. F. 1876, which allows the
Minnesota Valley Historical society to
erect monuments near Fort Rldgley to
the Indians faithful to the whites in the
Sioux massacre of 1862, was passed.
An hour was spent in committee OF
the whole, with Senator Thompson in
the chair, discussing Senator Potter's
bill for graduated penalties on delin-
quent taxes and then it was sent over
under report of progress.
