The new road law passed by the legis-
latiyc assembly last week and signed by
the governor Monday will go into effect
Friday. the 18th of this month. Its
general provisions have been cited in
our Legislative reports. but the law in
full will appear in our next issue. The
Office of road supervisor has been abol-
ished and those elected last year ana
who took Office May list will go out of
Office on that date-thcy will be the
last of their line. The law contem.
plates the election of three trustees in
each district, such election TO take place
on the first Saturday of April in each
year. The act, however, provides that
the trustees for the first year shall be
appointed by the commissioners ut their
June meeting and that thereafter these
trustees shall call and conduct the elcc-
tions for the choosing of their success
ors. The effect will be that from the
first Monday in May, when the tcrmsof
the supervisors expire, until the trustees
are appointed by the commissioners in
June, there will be N BROAD officers. and
consequently no work can be legally
done by anyone except upon order Of
the commissioners. This leaves mat
tiers in a very chaotic state for the
spring freshets, but One in full effect
the provisions of the law may be found
TO work very SUCCESSFULLY.

SENATOR GIBSON.
Sketch OF the Life Work of the Man Wfo
Has Been Elected to Congress.

Hon. Paris Gibson was born July
|, 1880, in Browntield, Oxford county,
Maine. In 1851 he was graduated
from Bowdoin college and served one
term in the legislature of his native
state. He married in 1sJS and mi
grated west in the early days of Min
nesota and located at Minneapolis
when that city was little more than
II village. He led an active, industri-
Gus life and became prominent in
business circles and was II factor in
the rapid growth and advancement
Of that city. In 1859 senator Gibson
and W. W. Eastman built the first
Touring mill In the city Of Minncap-
oils, which has since become famous
Us the greatest flour producing point
In the world. In 1854 le and Mr..
Eastman erected the Northern Star
wooden mill in Minneapolis, which
was also the frat OF its Kind there.
At the Centennial, in 1876, their mill
won the first premium for producing
the best wooden blankets in the world.
In 1878 MIR. Gibson met with severe
financial reverses In the panic of that
year and decided to move farther
west and begin a new battle. lie
came to Fort Benton In 1879 and ell
gagged in the sheep business. lie first
saw the upper falls of the Missouri In
May, 1852. lie was at once impressed
with the magnitude OF the water
power and resolved to acquire the
land bordering on the Missouri from
the mouth ofSun river to the Crooked
falls, n distance OF about seven
miles, and found n city there. He
interested James j. Hill of the Great
Northern in the enterprise in Novcm-
Der, 1SS2, and the partnership contin-
ued until lSNJ, when the Great Falls
Water Powerand Townsite company
was formed with Senator Gibson NJ
vice-president and director Of the
company. He was also the first
mayor Of Great Falls. Senator Glib
son has received the title Of 1.-THE
Father OF Great Falls" and he well
deserves ii, for he has devoted time,
energy, ability and means to enlarge,
improve and bcautiiy Great Falls,
and has founded a city that will
stand for all time ns an enduring
monument OF his business sngacity,
energy, enterprise and confidence.

BOARD GETS LAWYER
CONTROVERSY OVER GAME AND
FISH COMMISSION ATTORNEY
Is SETTLED
HALE, MONTGOMERY & HALE
Young MinneapOIitan Must Share
His Appointment with His
Father and Partners-SaI-
ery $50 IA Month.

A stormy session of the state game and
fish commission was held yesterday in the
office of Executive Agent Samuel F. Full
lertOn at the capitol, behind closed doors
AS a result of the meeting, the legal
firm of Hale, Montgomery & Hale, of
Minneapolis, was employed as the coun-
selors of the commission.
For some time the question has been
hanging fire as to whether the game and
fish commission really needed a special
attorney Gov Van SAINT became inter-
ested in the controversy to the extent of
suggesting the ACCESSIBILITY of such a
functionary. Mr.. Fullerton, it appeared,
displayed a more economical attitude, and
neld that the attorney generals services
ought TO suffice for the demands of the
commission. Then a vivacious element
was injected into the pending question by
the entrance of several candidates for
the place. chief among whom We're Frank
Hale, a young lawyer of Minneapolis, and
w. ]. Sullivan, a st. Paul attorney.
At the last meeting of the commission
it was agreed that no attorney would
then be employed The plan was that
each county where an attorney was
needed should employ one at its own ex-
pense, and in extreme cases the attorney
general would be available. In the mean
time the friends of young Hale became
persistent in their claims, and Executive
Agent Fullerton assumed the response
bility of disposing of the matter without
further consultation with the other men,
bers of the board. He therefore appoint
ed the firm of Hale, Montgomery 6, Hale.
This was very displeasing to the elder
Mr.. Hale, father of the applicant, and
he did not hesitate to manifest his dis
satisfaction to Mr. Fullerton. The lat
ter then becoming disgusted with the en-
tire affair, simply discharged the legal
firm from the obligation of enlightening
the commission upon intricate problems
and informed them that he would wipe
mis- hands of the matter entirely.
But the persistent friends OF the young
man Hale saw chance left, and decided
to appeal from the arbitrary ultimatum
of Mr.. Fullerton, which, it appeared, had
been given in desperation. Mr.. Hale, the
senior, gave out the information point
blank that he and his partner, Mr.. Mont
gomery We're not seeking the Office of
sion, and that they declined the honor
conferred upon them that of sharing the
appointment with the young attorney.
The action of the commission in ap-
pointing the entire firm of Hale, Mont
ton of Mr.. Fulerton's original action,
though it is not at all satisfactory to
Frank Hale and his friends.
The office carries with 1t small COM
pensation. For work performed in ei-
Their of the Twin Cities nothing is to be
paid the attorney, but for all services
rendered outside of the cities he is TO
be paid at the rate of SIS a month.

Works at Mcpherson

Anna Weber, employed by the Nc
Pherson & LangforI company, met with
a comparatively trivial accident last fun
day night which may result in the loss
of an arm. Miss Weber has been staying
with an uncle, John Hammes, jailer at
central police station, who lives at 173
West Fourth street. Last Sunday, with
a party of friends, she went to Wild
wood. While there she was bitten y

what at first, it seemed so trivial that
she paid little attention to it,
Monday she returned to her work and
thought no more of the occurrence until
Wednesday, when her arm began TO
swell. She became alarmed and consult
ed physician She was told that blood
poisoning had set in and serious results
were probable. She Immediately decided
to go to her home in La Crosse, and left
Thursday morning.
Yesterday Mr.. Hammes was informed
by telephone that the young woman's
poisoned arm had become much worse,
and in all probability would have to be
amputated.

FOR LIQUORS and ICE
PORTION OF RICE STREET is
BARRED TO EVERYTHING ELSE.

Because the Conway Paving company
permits ice. and beer wagons on the UNI
finished portion of the Rice street pay
ing, to the exclusion of all other traffic,
considerable complaint is being made by
residents of that locality, and in conse-
quence the alderman of the ward and
Mayor Smith have been in receipt of a.
number of communications containing
protests
In letter received by Mayor Smith
yesterday, John Thompson, who signed
himself Taxpayer aired his troubles
on this point, but the mayor was unable
to give him any satisfaction ConsuIta-
ton with City Engineer CIaussen showed
that the street is in charge of the paw
ing company, and they for the present
have direct control over 1t.
The Conway company says the reason
ice and beer wagons are permitted to go
through the barrier placed at the head
of the street is because the many saloons
along Rice street would have to quit
business for q month or so If supplies
We're denied them, while the ice is abso-
lutely necessary to the comfort of the
people who have been patrons Of the ice
companies. The wagons are only permit
ted on the unfinished part.
