Il dare say that we allow more appli-
cations than we should, and it Is our
common practice to exact specific rea-
son for the reduction sought in each case
In the face of all our efforts to discour-
age applications for abatement, we are
besieged year after year by property own
ers, who Insist that they have been treat
ed unjustly. The total of attachments re-
Quested from the county Of Hennepin
alone has during several years reached
several millions of dollars, and there was
one case where we rejected an applica-
ton from Ramsey county in which the
amount was over s500,000.
There was at one time such law as
this on the statute books, but so per-
sistent and so vicious was It's abuse that
it was repealed. Instead Of the law pro-
posed in that bill, one should be enacted
providing that no abatement should be
allowed except in case of clerical error.
The property owner has opportunity to
appear before the city and county boards
of equalization, and If he neglects his
privileges, If he is guilty of laches, then
he must accept the consequences. In. the
future we intend to grant no abatement,
even when indorsed by the county COM

House Committee on Appropriations
Thinks State Is Well Fixed

Mr.. Abbott (Rep), of Faribault, made
strong talk before the house committee
Oh appropriations last evening in favor
or his bill appropriating $4,000 for the
purchase Of an additional experimental
farm In the southern part Of the state.
In addition to the purchase price, the
bill also carried with 1t $1,000 for the
years 1899 and 1900 to manage and con-
duct the farm
Out of courtesy to Mr.. Abbott, the
committee will report the bill back with
out recommendation, although several
OF the members of the committee were
opposed to taking up the time of the
house in discussing the measure
Secretary Bracken, of the state board
OF health, accompanied by his assistants
and Attorney Harris Richardson, ap-
peared in behalf of the bill which ap-
proprtates $4,000 for the purpose of in
creasing the laboratory apparatus to be
used in the state health department.
The bill had been referred to the SUBJ
committee and the secretary of the
beard, and the attorney did not get a
chance to be heard.
Maj. Bowler, Of the dairy and food
commission, was present to give his
views on the bill which provided for an
annual appropriation of $4,000 for the
department and prescribes the work to
be done by the commissioner and his as
sistants.
Mr.. Staples Rep.), of Hastings, had
prepared a substitute for the BILL and,
as Maj. Bowler had not had time to look
the substitute over, consideration was
delayed until the meeting of the COM
mittee on Monday evening.
The bill appropriating $1,000 to pay a
documentary clerk in the office of the
secretary Of state was also laid over until
Secretary Berg could be brought before
the committee Mr. Fulton (Rep), of
Ramsey, said this action was requested
by Senator McGill, and the committee
acquiesced.
The bill Of Senator Knatvold, appropri-
ating $29l.66 to the widow of the late
Judge John Whytock, of the Tenth jul
dlcial district, was recommended for in
definite postponement
Mr. Roberts (Rep.). Of Hennepin, was
IN favor OF the passage Of the bill, but
Mr. Jacobson took the ground that 1t
was hardly the right thing to do. as it
provided for the payment of a months
salary after the death Of the Judge, and
the title of the bill read laid to the wild
ow." The passage Of the bill would es-
taphsh precedent, and all kinds of
claims OF similar nature would be
brought up. The talk of Mr.. Jacobson

The Excitement of whist.

There was a railroad accident some
years ago in California. Two passenger
trains collided and telescoped. At the
time of the accident there was going on,
in one of the smoking cars, a game of
whist
Though the train was damaged beyond
recognition, and several passengers in
jured, the interest of one of the whist
players was so great, that when he was
pulled from the debris more dead than
alive, he still held his hand Of whist.
If this whist party had been travelling
over The North Western Line between
the Twin Cities and Chicago or Omaha,
this accident would never have happen
ed for this line is so we'll protected by
the block signal system-it having more
miles under this system than any other
line entering the Twin Cities.

POOLS ON THE TRACK.
Bill That Applies to Driving Parks
and Fair Grounds.

If H. F. 573, introduced yesterday by
Mr.. Larson (Rep.), of Redwood, becomes
a law it will make possible the giving of a
thirty-day race meeting in st. Paul next
summer.
The bill amends section 1, chapter 21S
Of the General Laws of 1895, which pro-
hibits pool selling or bookkeeping and
makes the person violating the provision
guilty of a felony.
The amendment to the law excepts the
selling of pools and bookmaking on race
tracks and fair grounds from the penalty
clause of the law in the following Ian
guage:
provided, that the provisions Of this
act shall not apply to any race track, fair
grounds or driving park in this state
where test of speed Of horses are made
for period not exceeding thirty days IN
each year"
The bill does not allow any pool selling
or bookmaking anywhere except on the
race track where a thtrtyday meeting is
held each year. The bill was sent to the
committee on general legislation.
