BIENNIAL ELECTION BILL
MEASURE is PRACTICALLY KILLED
BY THE Committee ON CITIES.

MADISON, Wis, Feb. 1.-THE biennial
election bill, indorsed by the Municipal
League of Wisconsin and prepared by
Prof. Sparkling. of the state university,
is practically killed so far as the assem-
bly, committee on cities is concerned, al
though a substitute of some sort may be
reported, and it is not wholly Improbable
that the friends of the measure viii make
a fight for it on the floor OF the house.
Prof. Sparkling said last evening: 1.-THE
committee cannot agree on making it
uniform so as to put all elections in the
same year; and there seem to be other
objections not easily reconciled."
Archie Mckay, city attorney Of Su-
perior, made a point against the bill
which struck the members as forcibIe.
The bill provides for closing the polls at
5 O'Clock. Mr.. Mckay said that Il sleepy
town given up largely 30 matters of edu-
cation and legislation, might st along
well enough under this restriction. but
in a wide-awake manufacturing town
many laboring men would find it incon-
yenient to vote. Mr.. Mckay is opposed
to the bill on general PRINCIPLES, because
the p esent law is aIl-sufficI8nt, permit
ting cities to adopt the biennial election
plan, and many of them have done so.

Provide for Dividing Cities Into

to Drive Stock OFF From

AGAINST A LIBRARY LAW

PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 15.-(Special.)-
The wolf bounty matter ended in a
draw in the house, and while neither
side holds a einct, the bounty people
claim satisfaction with the situation and
the ability to pull it out when the mat
ter again comes before the house.
The house passed a bill relating to the
manner of drawing juries, which was
seLt here by a prominent Deadwood at
torney, and on the floor of the house it
was explained that the object of the bill
was to change the term district court
to circuit court in the jury law to avoid
any possible question in regard to the
legality of the drawing After the session
attention was called to the fact that Sec
8, chapter II, Laws Of 1890, provides that
in all matters where the statutes read
district court, it shall be construed to
mean circuit court, and that all matters
pertaining to district courts shall be con-
tinued in circuit courts. This puts the
house in the shape offpassing a measure
which has been covered on the statute
for more than ten years
The present house appears by its action
to be averse to anything in the way of
library law. While there has been but
little discussion on any of the measures
proposed, that bodyLhas already killed
d circulating library bill on the attempt
to push it through on. third reading, and
has killed two township. library bills on
committee report. The opponents of the
measures do not waste any time explain
ing their positions but simply vote the
measure down. They will have several
other opportunities te9vote on other house
bills and on senate bilis,5 and just what
they will do on the library matter is
yet to develop. but up to the present all
have gone down.
The bill providing for dividing cities in
to wards, which passed the house, fixes
the limitations at three wards for cities
under 1900 Inhabitants; four wards for
cities over that number and up to 10000
and six wards for cities of 10000 and uri-
der 1900: and an additional ward for
each additional 10000 population over
1900.
The house bill introduced by Burgess
to fix salaries of county treasurers
places the salary at $500 per year fol
any county, and provides further for
a salary Of $1,000 per year where the
population Of county exceeds 10000.
The bill by -McDougall, in regard to
driving live stock frcm their accustomed
range, is one which will be of interest
to all sections of the state where stock
are ranged for all or portion Of the
year. The provisions in the main are to
make the driving of stock off such range
misdemeanor punishable by a fine OF
not to exceed 800 and Imprisonment II
Jail not to exceed ninety days, or both.
While the driving Of stock may not be
an attempt to steal, it is often done as
a matter of spite simply to cause the
owner annoyance and expense in-recover

and sailed with It to Ireland. There It
was known ars the "Ss0ne Of Destiny"
which some have called Lila Fail or For
radh.
Lila Fail in another form is install, the
poetic name Of Ireland. The stone was
on hill at Tara, where the Irish kings
received the crown. The claimant took
his seat upon the sacred relic and If he
were not the rightful heir the stone
rumbled with sounds Of fearful warn
Ing. Some accounts say also that when
the true king sat upon 1t the stone would
purr. One of the Irish kings took It with
him on victorious invasion of Scot
land, and there it found Judgment in the
wall of Dunstaffnage castle, Scone. The
date of this is given as B. c. $50, and
the cavity the stone occupied is still on
exhibition for the curious. When 1t left
the wall the Scotch kings used 1t for
their coronations until Edward carried it
away.
Tradition accounts for the silence OF
the stone of Scone since it fell into the
hands of ravishers by saying that with
the birth Of Jesus it's voice was hushed
DR.. Joyce, in an article on the stone.
shows that in all probability Liza Fail is
today just where it was in the days when
kings went to Tara for their crowns. and
that the stone of Scone was likely never
out Of Scotland until Edward T. brought
1t south. Both Prof. Geikie and Prof
Ramsay have examined it, and pronounce
it Scotch, with7no marks of Ireland or
Spain, Greece, Egypt or Bethel on it. yet
certainly it is a sacred relic. Only once
has it been outside the Confessor's
chapel since Edwards time. Then Crom-
well took it over to Westminster hall
to use when he was proclaimed lord
protector. This is striking testimony to
the place the coronation stone held in the
popular mind in his day.
When at a date not yet determined
King Edward VII is crowned, the coro-
nation chair, with it's precious stone OF
Scone, will be moved around to the other
side of the partition against which it
now stands, into the choir of the abbey,
and will be covered with cloth of gold.
Beside it, probably, will be placed the
new coronation chair made for Queen
Mary, wife of William Ill, in 1858, and
last used in the coronation Of Queen Ade-
laide seventy years ago. Except for the
stone of Scone, it is an exact copy Of the
older chair. Seated in this chair Queen
Alexandra will receive her crown as
queen consort
In the days before the coronation chair
WAS rallied off and guarded carefully
Vandals used to carve their initials on it's
sacred back, and one ambitious youth
once managed to elude the vergers and
sleep all night in the chair.
