how persuasive he can be in handling
the honorable and obstinate gentleman
from Iowa are open questions.
There Is a grave suspicion that the
senate passed the irrigation bill out OF
compliment to Senator Henry c. Hans
brough, of North Dakota, and that thew
did so in the perfect confidence that the
bill would be blocked by Speaker Hen
derson's hostility in the house. Hans
brough will be a candidate for re-elec-
ton next year. He will have a difficult
campaign on his hands. Judge Moves.
Of Nome, Alaska, was his constituent.
and his official condemnation by the ad-
ministration will be made use of by the
enemies Of Hansbrough to undo him.
Further Fight IL Expected.
The senate is always anxious to helm
out one of its own members, when it
can be done without any serious reults
to itself. A little favor like passing a
bill which will be checked at the other
end of the corridor is-pooh! Now the
senator from North Dakota can go back
to his constituents and show what he
did; he cannot be held responsible for

ASK FOR INJUNCTION
ASSESSMENT FOR SIBLEY STREET
IMPROVEMENT RESULTS IN
LEGAL PROTEST
FILED BY SEABURY G co.
1t Is COntended That Valuation Fix
cd by hoard of Public Works Is
Arbitrary and Fraud
uIent

AT late hour yesterday afternoon in
junction proceedings were filed in the
district court by Seabury & Co., whole
sale grocers, against the city and the
board of public works, the basis of action
being the attempted approval and inflic-
ton by the board of an assessment for
the widening of Sibley street in the vi
entity of the Union depot. The papers
are returnable next Saturday before
Judge Brill
The petition for an enjoining order is
the elimination of the hearing held yes
terday before the board of works when
the assessment for the widening was
placed at $4,000, and steps taken to have
it confirmed and placed as a lien against
the property benefited.
In their complaint filed, Seabury & Co.,
who are only lessees under peculiar condi-
tons of the property which they occupy
at the northwest corner of Sbley and
Third streets, say the assessment is ar
bitrary fraudulent and without regard to
law or fact
They claim that the Improvement is a
benefit to the city at large, and not to
defined locality, as the board has made it.
In respect to valuations, they say the
property taken for the widening is not
worth over $50,000 and as comparison
show that the property occupied by Foley
Bros. & Kelly can be purchased for $780,
900, and the PLAINTIFFS own building for
SIS 900. Both have a large frontage and
are substantial structures, while the prop
erty to be taken consists of aged and
tumble down buildings.
Seabury e. Co.'S predicament lies in the
fact that the lease they own carries with
it the provision that they shall pay all
taxes and assessments. They pay S., 900
a year rent, and their lease will expire
next May, when the assessment becomes
operative. The owners of the building,
they say, are particularly anxious that
the assessment be made at once, and for
this reason they ask delay, that the I'M
fairness of the whole transaction may

order for II o'clock Monday
The only amendment OF any Importance
to the Anderson bill was the striking
out of the clause which provides for tho
advertisement of the description Of the
property at the end Of the time for re-
demption. Senator Schaller opposed this
clause, saying that 1t did no good and
was only an additional cost To the cOuu-
ty. He thought it would cost Dakota
county $3.50 year, when a great part
OF the property advertised would not be
worth the price Of the description.
The following bills were passed in thu
senate yesterday:
The house bill allowing the state treas
urer stenOgrapher at a salary of 500
a year.
Senator Wilson's bill permitting the
Minneapolis park board to issue 5000
bonds.
A resolution by Senator Ivess allowing
the publication of the law creating tho
Ramsey county board of control with the
laws of this session. The law was pass
ed several years ago, but was never pub
liShed.

Although the senate worked long and
diligently all day yesterday when even
ing came the results Of its labors were
small All the important legislation is
in about the same condition as it was
Friday night. The report of the senate
conference committee was adopted and
the proposed constitutional amendments
to be presented to the people passed by
a vote of 81 to l, Senator StOckwell be-
ing the dissenting member.
The house refused to concur In the
amendments and another conference
committee was appointed. 1t came to a
conclusion late last evening, and consid-
Grafton of it's additions was postpoAed
until Monday.
The reading of the Anderson bill,
which contains the administrative fea-
lures Of the tax code in regard to the
taxation of real estate, was concluded
during the afternoon session. There
were a great number of amendments
made to it, and with the exception of one
were of small Importance. They were
so numerous, however, and the bill IN
so chaotic a condition that it was or
dered, printed as amended and will be
brought up for final passage Monday.
The Halvorson resolution calling upon
the railroad and warehouse commission
to investigate the rate for transporta-
ton OF IRON ore on the range preclpltated
a lively debate, the attempt to get it
through proving a failure. 1t was re-
ferred to the railroad committee, which
was to have met yesterday. A meeting
of the committee was called but 1T Was
too late to do anything. The committee
will hold a meeting Monday during the
recess.

came back from the committee on the

fort to have the report of the commit
tee changed and succeeded to this point.
Senator Larson thought the reduction
Of the rates would lose some revenue TO
the state and wanted the bin postponed.

Spring Time the Best
Season of the Year to
Treat Chronic Catarrh.

Notwithstanding that a great number

cold season, yet it cannot be denied that

But springtime has come at last, and
now is the time for all catarrh sufferers
to begin systematic course Of treat
ment for this disease. The greatest diff
ticulty in the way of treating chronic
catarrh is that the patient is so liable to
catch cold during the treatment and thus
delay a cure.
This liability at this season of the year
Is, in a great measure. removed and no
one should neglect the opportunity to
take treatment.
Peruna Is acknowledged by everyone
to be the only reliable and unfailing cure
