JacobsOn's remark. 81 am not hostile
to the normal schools but the high
schools OF the state are OF greater
value. -
The fight made by Mr.. Laybourn on
behalf of his pet measure was vigor-
GUS. A splendid system, he said, had
been built up. but needless to say no
assistance had been received from the
gentleman of Lac qui Parle. He had
opposed the university tax levy in
1887, but in the good Judgment OF the
house that bill was made law. The
present measure was similar; it sub
stltuted a direct tax levy for blen-
NAL appropriation and was in no sense
as an increase in the amount required.
MI. Laybourn defended the normal
school board against ''the unjust re-
Election of Mr.. jacobson charging ex-
travagance. The bill had been pre-
pared by the board itself. The amount
for maintenance, if placed in the
hands of the normal board, would re-
suit in more efficient system, graft
flying as was the present condition OF
normal schools.
Mr.. Laybourn was defeated and
the committee sustained sc to 46.
Organized labor is greatly interested
in the two eight-hour day bills intro
duced in the senate by Senators Potter
and McGowen, but declines to indorse
either, as both are acceptable. One is
introduced by Republican and the
other by a Democrat, and as the labor
organizations, as such, are not partizan
bodies, they do not care to favor. either
BILL to the extent of ignoring the
other. AS the matter stands now the
Potter bill, a duplicate of which has
been introduced in the lower house by
Representative Armstrong, stands by
far the best show of passing, not only
because it will have the support of the
majority party, but because it is re-
cognized as a much more conservative
and by far more practicable bill than
the one introduced by Senator Nc
GOwan.
1t is only fair to both senators to say
that there is no Indication that they
are attempting to make any political
capital out of the bill. At the meeting
of the senate committee on labor last
evening, which was attended by a
large number of we'll known leaders in
the labor movement, both assured the
meeting that they would support the
bill most acceptable to those who were
present, as the meeting was a most
representative one. Among the
speakers were Labor Commissioner
iO'Donnell. Louis Hanson woodworker,
John Geiskel, barber, Phil Carlin, car
penter. all of Minneapolis, and several
from st. Paul There was a fair
sprinkling of Legislators from both
houses present, but they were simply
listeners. Senator Benedict inquired
if the MCGOWAN bill would apply to
the work of taking out raw materials
for subcontractors, and was Informed
that inasmuch as such work was not
done by state employees nor by con-
tractors to the state, the law could not
apply.

work. Should they be turned into the
general fund, the Standard Oil COM
pany could raise the point that the fees
were revenue tax, and that the COM
pany was already paying its proper
proportion of the states taxes.
The author agreed to the amend
ment, and the bill was reported back
as it now reads.
The question now is, what will be-
come of the surplus which goes into
the illuminating oil inspection
fund. This will amount to probably
$50, 900 in two years time. Some
claim it may be transferred to the
general fund by act of the legislature.
A prominent st. Paul attorney, who
has given the case some consideration,
said yesterday that this would rasie a
contention with the companies that
pay the fees, who would claim the
money as a surplus over the cost OF &C
tual inspection. He cited the case of
the state VS.. Cassidy, 22d Minnesota,
312, in which majority of the court
held that funds derived from liquor
licenses could be set aside for main
tenance of a hospital for inebriates.
According to that decision, - said
he, "the state could set aside this sur
plus fund for maintaining a hospital
for people injured by kerosene oil ex-
plosions. This hospital could take as
many patients of other kinds as it had
room for But think the effect of the
decision goes still farther, and the
state under it has the right to use the
fund for any purpose whatever it may
elect. As matter of fact, it is the
people and not the oil companies that
pay the inspection fee, and the people
have a right to ask that the surplus of
the fees should go to relieve them in
some measure of the burden of taxa
ton"
The attorney generals Office has
never been asked for an opinion on the
question.
According to the prevailing opinion
of the law in the case, the inspection
fund cannot be diverted to any other
purpose, and the result will be that
two years from now the legislature
will have to reduce the fees so that
they shall just cover the cost of in
spection.
Of course the Standard Oil company
should then follow suit, and make
corresponding cut in the price of kero-
sene, but such result cannot be pre-
dicted with certainty
