TWO NEW BILLS PROVIDING RIGID
LEGISLATION FOR COMPANIES.

MADISON, Wis, Feb 1.-(SpeciaL)-
In the assembly the second reading OF
the anti pass constitutional amendment
brought out considerable discussion
Two important telephone bills were in
troduced in the assembly-one taxing
telephone companies ON property valua-
ton instead of gross. earnings the other
requiring competing telephone companies
to receive and transmit messages for
each other, and fixing the rates at 81
per month in cities of 100 0G0: S. per
month in cities Of 10000, $2.5C in cities of
20 GOO, and 81 in cities under 100000 Also
a long distance rate of 10 cents per
minute for 100 miles or less. Heavy PEN
alties for violations are PROVIDED fine
of $500 to $500 for the first offense, $500
to N,C0G for the second offense, $1,000 to
5000 for the third and 600 for each
subsequent offense.
A bill which promises to cause some
stir in university circles will be intro
duced the latter part OF this week It
is intended to place the fraternities at
the university under the faculty super
vision, but it is made broad enough to
include all organizations which receive
their support from students at any OF
the state institutions, thus including
normal schools.
Assemblyman Benson has introduced
q bill that requires that the superin-
tSiiuSuI VI PUpllc INSTRUCTION. TO
text books for the use of all the COM
mon schools of the state and that these
books shall be printed and furnished to
the children at the cost price. This sarae
bill was up two years ago, but way
killed. Mr.. Benson says he proposes to
make a hard fight for the measure ana
that 1t will greatly reduce the cost of
books to children.
Senator Jones has introduced two bills
in the senate for an appropriation to
take up invalid Kelley cure orders that
are circulating in Milwaukee and Wau-
kesha counties. Under the old state law.
since declared invalid by the supreme
court, county judges were permitted to
send drunkards to the Kelley institute
for treatment. The institute had some
$25, goo to $4,000 of orders against coun-
ties which it cashed in Waukesha and
Milwaukee, merchants accepting them
beo ause they thought the counties were
good for them. Later the counties re-
fused to pay and the courts upheld them.
Mr.. Jones now wants the state to take
up the claims because he holds that
morally they are just debts.

PIERRE, s. D., Feb. 1.-(Special. THE
agitation in regard to libraries has call
ed out number of bills, some of which
will undoubtedly be framed into law.
The main bill which is being pushed is
for a state library commission to be
appointed by the governor to take
charge of library work in the state with
a secretary, to keep his office in the Of.
flee of the state superintendent of in
struction, who is to be the only salar.ed
officer connected with the move. The
main purpose is to provide for circulat-
Ing libraries to be furnished any school
or public institution, and to keep such
books in circulation. Other bills have
been introduced regarding county school
circulating libraries; and to provide for
libraries in cities of the first and second
class by a general tax levy, which also
provides for levy for construction of
library buildings. The only trouble is in
the possibility that multiplicity of biIla
may hamper each other and cause a gen.
eral failure.
The house bill, passed today, cedng
jurisdiction over crimes committed on an
indian reservation to the rational gov
eminent is one, which with CO. gres sion il
action, would be of great benefit to
counties bordering on any Indian reser-
walton. AT the present the United Stat
courts hold they only have jurisdiction
over crimes committed by one Indian on
another, and can not take jurisdiction
where either one of the parties is a white
man OF mixed blood, only in specifically
named cases. An effort to secure such
congressional legislation was met with
the statement that 1t would be impos-
slble so long as the state retained, or
attempted to retain its Jurisdiction and
to clear the way the present bill has
been introduced. One OF its provisions
retains the state jurisdiction Until con-
gress has taken action, so there is no
gap left TO make reservations in no mans
land so far as law is concerned.
A late article appeared from Sioux
Falls, taking the position that it would
be cheaper for a majority of the COMMIT
OF the state to erect county insane
asylums and care for their own patients,
than to continue the present system
Grant county is cited as an instance
where the county paid 5000 the past
year fer care Of insane. The article
further states that there was an excess
Of several thousand dollars last wear
ever the appropriation regardless of the
expense, but the records do not bear this
out The appropriation was $4,000, and
the amount received from the counties
was s9O,070.27. 1t is also claimed that
there will be an excess of at least $i40.O
for the present fiscal year, when the
books of the state auditor show that the
receipts for the first half Of the fiscal
year have been SAC. 20s.73, and there nar
been paid out on warrants for the Same
time, S55,074.39, which would indicate
deficit instead Of an excess for The year.

BILL FOR PURER FOOD
1T WILL BE INTRODUCED IN THE
HOUSE NEXT WEEK.


Some important legislation in the In
terest of pure foods, beverages, drugs
and other such articles is being planned
by Minnesota legislators, and bill of
this character will be introduced in the
house within the next week. The meas
ure will embody the same essential fea-
lures as contained In the Brosius bill,
now pending in the house of representa-
tives at Washington the counterpart of
which is fathered in the national senate
by Senator Mason, Of Illinois. 1t will
have the earnest and active support Of
leading commercial organizations in the
state interested in the manufacture and
sale of unadulterated goods. The bill is
row in the hands of the committee on
public health, dairy and food products,
of which Representa- tive A. X. Bush is
chairman. 1t will reach the house as
committee bill.
The purport of the bill will be to pre-
vent adultera tion misbranding and imita-
ton of foods, beverages, drugs, candies
and condiments in the state If the ar
ticle is a compound, the bill will require
that it be so designated on the package
or wrapping on the outside, and If any
valuable ingredient of the article be
wholly or in part distracted, so that the
product when sold shall deceive or tend
to deceive the purchaser, this also must
be publicly indicated. In short it is in
tended that this bill shall be the means
OF correcting the fragrant abuses INDUCED
in by many manufacturers who are guilty
of misrepresenting their goods, whose
deleterious effects have frequently been
widespread and exceedingly injurious to
consumers.
The original Brosius bill, from which
this one will be taken, has the stanch
advocacy of the American Baking Pow
der association and the concurrent action
of the national pure food and drug con-
gress back of it, and this bill will be
supported by similar organization in
Minnesota.
A heavy penalty will be attached for
any violation of the law which the bill
proposes to enact.

whom the bill has been for week.
Thus Representative Rukard Hurd has
dfstanced his opponents in the first
round of his fight to reduce the prlncely
income of $4,000 or $4,000 which Fred
c. Schiffmann, the newly appointed oil
inspector, was to have received.
The committee voted as follows upon
the bill:
For the bill: J. A. Peterson, G. w.
Armstrong, G. r. Laybourn S. D. Peter
son, N. w. Benson, Thomas Torson, c.
S. Schurman-7.
Against. c. Stevenson, H. X. Mel
son, w. w. Rich, ]. II. O'Neil, L. w.
Babcock, w. w Galt-6.
Schiffmann appeared before the COM
mittee and argued that 1t was the UNDER
standing for him to retain, out of the
proceeds of the office, only enough for
a reasonable salary and to allow the re-
mainder, probably $15,000 to go in to the
funds Of the Republican party for cam
paign purposes. The majority Of the
committee preferred to have this amount
devoted to the state funds rather than
the Republican campaign treasury.
Under the bill as it now stands, Schiff-
mann will receive salary of $2,400, and
there will be q side fund for Incl
dentals In carrying on the office of
about $4,000. The measure will come up
in the house very soon. Mr. Hurd be-
heves his bill viii pass both houses.
The Bush bill, increasing the appro.
priation for travelling libraries from
$1,000 to $4,000 was favorably acted upon
by the committee and at once sent to
the committee on appropriations.
The house accepted favorable report
from the committee on general legisla-
ton on the bill of Mr.. Anderson, allow>
ing cities of not less than 1900 or more
than $4,000 Inhabitants, to construct and
maintain their own electric lighting
plants.
The Bean bill which waits upon con-
gress with memorial to establish a ma
uonal park and military assembly at
Fort Ridgeley was passed under a sus-
pension of rules.
S. f. %, providing for the incorpora-
ton of grand and subordinate lodges Of
the United Workmen and state and
local camps of the Modern Woodmen,
was also passed under suspension of
rules.
