THE TURNING POINT
1t Came With the Saline Injection
Into the Blood.

1t Came With the Saline Injection
Into the Blood.
San Francisco, Cal, May 18-It
is learned to-day that the rally which
marked the turning point in Mrs. Nc
Kinley's illness came Immediately after
a treatment on Thursday which included
saline injection directly into the blood.
Her pulse showed quick Improvement and
she continued to improve all day yester-
day. Leading physicians who have been
informed of the course of treatment which
has been pursued not only entertain the
hope, but have confidence n the prediction.
that the patient will have better health
in the future than she has had for many
years. YESTERDAY she talked to her at
tendants and smilingly told one of her
physicians that she wanted fried chicken.
She made an effort to get up, contrary to
the advice of her physician.
The patient was blessed with several
hours of natural sleep early yesterday
morning. Opiates were not administered
to invite sleep but a powerful stimulant
was given to reinforce the action of the
heart. The expressed desire for solid
nourishment was accepted as a hopeful
sign, but the doctors believe that it is not
prudent to oblige her in this respect It
is yet impossible to determine when Mrs,
Mckinley will be able to leave this city
for her home even if she continues to i'm
prove as rapidly as appeared before fe-
Verish symptoms were again noted late
last night.
Last evening it was thought at the house
that Mrs. Mckinley might safely be put
on an eastbound train as early as next
Monday or Tuesday, but it is more than
likely that the Scott residence will be the
home of the president for at least ten days
to come. In fact one circumstance indi-
Gated strongly that the president and his
official family may be compelled to re-
main in the city for even longer time
than that. This fact is that the John
Hooper residence at Clay and La Cuna
streets has been offered to the president
for the use Of the members of his cabinet
in order that they may be neaI er to him
for the consideration of affairs of state,
The offer was considered but no definite
answer has been given.
Hundreds of people constantly linger
about, the slopes of Lafayette park lust
across the street, affording a good view
of the temporary executive mansion. The
presidents appearance is eagerly awaited
and his every movement is closely OBJ
served. The crowd, however, is quiet and
respectful, all realizing that manifesto
tions of enthusiasm are out of place while
Mrs. Mckinley lies so critically i'll.

TO HELP BISHOP WHIPPLE
Bishop Millspaugh of Kansas Comes
to Minnesota

Bishop Frank Millspaugh of Kansas,
formerly rector of St. Paul's church, is
here to assist Bishop Whipple in his work
in this city and in several towns in the
southern part of the state. He will ofici-
ate tomorrow morning at st. PauPs.
Bishop Millspaugh has good words for
Kansas. He said:
There is no state in the union with brighter
prospects than Kansas. The foreign element
is small. 1 attribute the fact that Kan
sas has produced so many of what are termed
cranks to the fact that its people are intelli-
gent and thinkers. The Carrie Nation CAM
paign created much new sentiment on the
prohibition law. My experience leads me to
believe that there is far less drunkenness un-
der a prohibition law than under high IL
cense, although the law may not be enforced
as strictly as its advocates would like.

CITY PROPERTY E NJ
Attorney Generals Opinion Relative
to Road Tax.

The new road law passed at last
winters session of the legislature still
continues to come in for a lot of in
curry from county officials, who are
plying the attorney generals office
with questions as to its meaning and
asking for Interpretation Of some Of
it's many and apparently ambiguous
clauses. The latest opinion in refer
ence to that hard to be understood
piece of legislation was delivered by
Assistant Mettler in response to a re-
quest from the county commissioners
OF Lewis and Clarke county, who want
ed to know if the section of the law
relating to taxation of property for
road purposes was applicable to incor-
porated cities. In the opinion of Mr..
Mettler such property is exempt. AT
ter quoting from the law the opinion
continues as follows:
IF the phrase, all taxable property
Of the county occurring in said sec
ton, were not modified by some other
portion of the law, it would, of course,
include city property. However, in the
latter part of section one, of senate
bill II, we find the following provision:
No city or incorporated town shall be
subdivided into road districts, nor in
cluded within any road districts, but
the streets and highways thereof shall
be laid out and maintained by and be
under the jurisdiction of the municipal
authorities thereof, as is now or may
hereafter be provided by law
Constituting the above provisions Of
the law together, and keeping in view
the fact that senate bill No. II, is AN
act for the establishment of a uniform
system Of road government and ad-
ministration in the counties Of Mon
tana,' it seems to me that the appar-
ent ambiguity in the law is removed.
and that the legislature in exempting
incorporated cities and towns from in
clusion within road districts intended
oioo W OAClupC pIOpCiCy WlluIll SUCH
cities and towns from taxation for the
support of such road districts.
Under the law the money raised for
road purposes must be applied to the
maintenance of the roads in the regu-
larly organized road districts, and can
not under any circumstances be applied
to the laying out or maintenance of
the streets or highways within an in
corporated city or town. So that, if
the levy for road purposes included
city property, such city property would
have to be subjected to an additional
levy by the municipal authorities for
the maintenance of it's streets and
highways which clearly could not have
been contemplated by the legislature.
81 am therefore of the opinion that
the levy provided for in section 35 of
senate bill Il is restricted to property
outside the limits of incorporated cit
les and towns"
