DON'T Want IT 70 PASS
HOUSE COMMITTEE Is SEEMINGLY
AGAINST BILL RELATING TO
HANDLING COUNTY FUNDS
WAS RECOMMENDED BY LIND
County Auditors Give the Measure
Their Endorsement, but That
Cuts No Figure With
the Politicians.

The house committee on towns and
counties met yesterday afternoon and
again deferred fiual action on the bill
providing for a simpler method of ac,
counting and handling county funds.
The bill yas referred to a special conf
mittee composed of Messrs Tcrson, Bean,
Babcock, Schwarg and Haugland.
Some time ago Gov. Lind advocated the
adoption of this system for keeping the
county funds, which was then submit
TED to the various county auditors anI
treaSurerS of the state, with the result
that the former, almost to the man,
heartily approved the plan. Nearly all
the tTeasurers did the same. The princi-
pal feature Of that plan was, in short,
to make the county auditor the official
bookkeeper of the county The tax lists
were to be given over to his custody.
instead of being kept by the treasurer,
as is now tue case. AS it is now the
auditor has to look to the treasurer
for all data upon these matters Of
which he should be the original possessor
Furthermore, under the present system,
the total tax levy of the state, amount
ing approximately to GOO, may be
handled in the several counties with more
security than the Ieasurer's bonds
which have in times gone by proven
faIlible.
Gov. Lind, State Examiner Pope, and
all others WhO favor this new system
maintain that no money whatever should
be paid out by the treasurer without a
chez elk from the auditor and that ace
Quate security should be available for
every cent so disbursed. This system is
in vogue in the state treasurer and an-
ditOrs affairs and is looked upon as
the only right system to adopt in the
counties. 1t has not only received the
strongest advocacy of the present state
examiner, but that of every one of his
predecessors, Examiner Knox, the first
man to occupy that position, being a
stout exponent of just such q plan.
The committee having this bill in hand
although confronted with the strong in
dorsernent of such county auditors as
p. ]. Gruber, of Stearns county, whose
books and system have been pronounced
model by the state department, Gen. Pope
and other high authorities, seem anxious
that it shall not pass. 1t is true the bill
would, if passed. cause some slight cur
tailmCnt in the matter of clerk hirJ
in some of the counties, which would OF
course deprive some men of little polit.
ical prestige, since the influence o.
clerks and their friends is a very potent
factor in campaigning for Office

FULLY TREATED
GIRL WAS LURED TO ST. CLOUD
Deceived Under Promise of Employ
ment-Pitiful Story of an I'm
sophisticated Young
Country Woman.

ST. CLOUD, MINI, Feb. 15-(Special y
If the story told yesterday to the police
by Miss Ella Neils, of Sauk Rapids, is
true and there is every reason to be-
lleve it is, there is very serious trouble
in store for somebody The girl is twen-
ty years old and has lived with her wild
owed mother for a number of years at
Sauk Rapids AS the young lady was
standing at the gate one day last De-
cember a stranger drove up and inquired
IL she knew of a place where he could
obtain the services of a girl for house
work, and she responded that she did not,
but said that she would be willing to take
the place and after some further talk
the man arranged to come again in few
Gays and let her know. The man called
again in a day or two together with his
wife and they brought the girl to ST.
Cloud and took her to a house on the
corner of Fifth avenue and Second street.
In the evening the man and woman went
out together, leaving the girl at home.
The man returned again about II o'clock
and began to frighten the girl by telling
her that the police were looking for her
for some imaginary crime. Along in the
early hours of the morning Miss Neil de-
clares she was brutally raVished by her
employer, and when his wife came home
about-6 in the morning the girl went to
her with the story, and instead of re-
ceiving any sympathy, the woman told
the girl to keep quiet about it.. Both the
man. and woman continued to frighten
the girl by stories and she was kept lock-
ed in the house for couple of days
when the man and woman started FOR
Little Falls and took the girl a prisoner
with them. At that place they went to
a cheap hotel, and in the night the man
attempted to enter her room, and the
landlady was aroused by her cries and
came to the rescue. To the landlady
she told her story and was. yesterday
brought to this city, where a warrant
was issued by Judge Alden for the man's
arrest The mans name here was Ed
ward Folsom and his business was that
of horse trader. The girl is we'll con-
nected, but is not at all experienced with

SUNSHINE OF THE CAPITOL.

An incident illustrative of the chronic
differences of opinion manifested by two
Republican senators occurred recently.
The senate was taking the rOll-call
