NJ. c. Clark Alleges That He was

vOrabIy to OIson-Charge
Is Denied.


sNels Olson's damage suit against the
500" road, which developed some sensa-
1onal features in its former trial, is MAX
ing good its record in the second hearing
of the evidence now in progress in Judge
Brilps court.
M. c. Clark, one of the witnesses called
by the railroad company, testified that
he had been offered $3.50 by L. D. Bar
nard, one of Olson's attorneys, to give
certain testimony. He related at much
length under examination ard cross-ex-
animation conversations which he had
had with Olson and with Mr.. Barnard,
and said in substance that he had been
instructed by Mr.. Barnard as to what
his testimony should be. Clark, in the
course Of his examination, said he did not
see the accident, but it was understood
that he should make q statement as to
certain circumstances.
Mr.. Barnard, on the stand, denied the
statements contained in the testimony of
Clark, and said he had had no under
standing or agreement with the man or
with any of the other witnesses.
In the former trial of the case Theodore
Bartlett, one of the witnesses for Olson,
was arrested for perjury, and is now I'M
Ger bail awaiting trial on the charge.
Olson was injured at Enderlin and sued
the company to recover $4,000 for the
loss of his right arm. In the first trial
he was given $4,000.

PASS IT ONCE MORE
ALDERMEN VOTE FOR WINE-ROONr
ORDINANCE THAT is WITH
OUT FLAWS
GOES TO ASSEMBLY TOMORROW
Legal Department Is Confident That
the Ordinance Is Free From
FIaws-Three Members
Oppose 1t.

Inc board of aldermen last night passed
Its third wine room ordinance and if
nothing prevents, it will reach the assem-
bly, tomorrow night, when it will become
law The measure this time is credited
with having been looked into by the ls4sal
department and is youched for by the Of
f1c1alS of that department as being as
sound as it is possible to make such meas
ures.
AS at all previous meetings the vote
was the same, Aid. Dahlquist, Huber and
Murphy registering an emphatic mega
tive. Each found time to accompany his
vote with a few words of explanation,
and IN this respect Aid. Dahlquist and
Murphy were most pronounced in their
views. Aid. Dahlquist characterized the
whole thing as unfair and demanded that
the saloonkeepers be given hearing,
while Aid Murphy took his old stand and
denounced the measure as political bun
combe.
This whole thing" said Mr.. Murphy.
is being done for political effect. Those
behind it don't want this ordinance pass
ed. They want it killed so that they can
go to the people and say the Democratic
administration favors wine rooms. |
want to also repeat that I don't believe
st. Paul has any wine rooms.''
The requirements of the law passed
last night are the same as in the previ-
Gus drafts. Wine rooms are permitted,
but they must be without doors or
screens. Not less than four persons, I'M
less they are all of one sex, can occupy
room. A fine for the first offense, and a
revocation of the license for the second
is the penalty provided,
The ministers last night informed the
council that the measure was satisfactory
to them, and Corporation Attorney Mark
ham clinched it by saying that the draft
as constitutional and free from errors.

BARS ARE LET DOWN
SENATE OPENS THE WAY FOR A
GREAT FLOOD OF
HILLS
RECEPTION COMMITTEE KILLED
Bill to Make Railway and Ware
50 house GoMamissiOn sAppointive
Raises a,Fight in House ID
of Lords

Just as predicted, the senate very soon
chafed under it's selt-imposed restraint
of the reception committee and this
morning that body will rescind the rule
restricting legislation to the tax meas
ure, and local and curative acts, and will
let the bars down for general legislation.
At least, that was the sentiment at yes
terdays session.
The trouble started when the reception
committee reported Senator Ialvorsen' s
railroad commission bill out for indeti-
mite postponement. Senator Halvorsen i'm
mediately aroused a. storm. He made an
impassioned plea for the necessity of
passing his bill Immediately He declared
that the present railroad and warehouse
commission had proven a total failure;
that it had been foisted upon the Repub-
lican party by theaSt. Paul politicians;
( that the commission had come absolutely
nothing and that the people of the state
demanded it's immediate abolition. 1t
was, he said, the laughing stock of the
state, and the Republican party owed it
to itself to correct its mistake of the last
session when it changed the commission
from an appointive to an elective body.
Senator MCGOWAN seconded the efforts
of the Lac 7quf Parle statesman declaring
that the commission had done nothing to
benefit the people of the state He d. not
take any stock in the plea that.ithere was
no time for general legislation. The SEN
ate had already wasted much time and
might as well be doing something useful
| Senator Young took the same position
He SAN the rule had been passed to per
NIT an early adjournment; this was now
out of the question. IF the senate must
meet every day, it might as well consider
useful legislation. Senator Halvorsen' S
bill, he sa4~, was one which represented
the sentiments of the people of the state,
and was Of great importance to them and
ought to be considered. He favored sus-
pending the rule from now on. Senator
Mccarthy said if this bill was to be con-
sidered, others should be considered and
he favored the suspension of the rules
Senator Sheehan reminded Mr.. HaIvorsen
that 81 told you So when the western
part of the state asked the change in the
commission at the last session.
The bill was finally laid on the table
and will be taken up this morning, when
the rule will probably be put away on
the shelf to make way for a flood of gen.
eral legislation

Carpenters Say Chinese Must Go

The exclusion of the Chinese was taken
up at the meeting of the Carpenters
union at Federation hall last night. Sew
eral little speeches were made against
cheap alien labor, at the conclusion of
which the following preamble and reso-
luton were adopted:
Whereas, the immigration of cheap
labor from the South and East of
Europe is a menace to the American
standard of living, and is one of the
greatest obstacles to the raising of the
wages and the shortening of the hours
of American workingmen; and
Whereas, an educational test offers
the only practicable and effective re-
striction of such immigration;
Resolved, That the Carpenters union
Of st. Paul, respectfully petitions the
congress of the United States to pass
law at it's present session forbidding the
immigration of persons, other than
wives and children who cannot read"

THEIR READERS ONLY THE BLIND.

There Is one circulating library IN Bos-
ton which sends it's volumes to all parts
of the United States. Blind men and
women are the readers. They feel out
words and sentences, full stops and
short pauses, smile when deft fingers
glide into the merriment of joke, or
show by facial expression the emotion
locsed by coming in touch with some
thing sad.
This library is at the Perkins institution
in South Boston. 1t contains 1881 vol
times in the different sorts Of types in
vented for finger reading, and the rules
are that any blind persons may take out
a book by the payment of the transport
tation charges Those within the state 5
confines who cannot see and who wish
to read may call upon the state to aid
them, and they do not entreat in vain
who ask the state to do SO.
IT'S the law, and the state legislature
makes annual appropriations for the pur-
pose, to provide instruction for adult
blind. This is given at their homes, sew
eral competent instructors being en-
ployed to travel from place to place
teaching the blind the cunning of finger
reading
The 12,S21 volumes at the Perkins in
stitution library does not mean SO many
different works. Embossed letters are
large and require much room, SO that
works complete in single volume OF
ordinary type require numerous volumes
when printed for the blind. Take The
Bible for example. One volume suttices
for all it's books in ordinary type, but
eight volumes are flied when its text IS
printed n-the raised roman letters for
finger reading, and Is or more when
printed in what is known as the IRA lie
type and GA when printed in moon type.
AhOlIf 500- hooks al fakpu from 6
library annually by the adult blind in
this state. and 100 more by the blind liv-
ing outside Massachusetts,. The graduates
of the Perkins institution keep in touch
with the library, and no negative reply is
ever given to an application sent for
reading.
Blind people find their reading rather
expensive, as the volumes are bulky and
the postage in consequence considerable
The government might authorize the
transmission of such literature to blind
persons flee of cost. The Canadian par
lament enacted such a lar in 1893. To
show what such free transportation
would mean to a. poor blind person: The
Bible is a. much-read book among the
blind but to obtain and return the
braille edition Of twenty-five volumes
means cost of more than S..
There are MANY blind persons in Mas
sachusetts, who, because of lack of train
ing. are beyond the reach of the Perkins
institution, but those interested in the
couraged by the progress of home teach
ing instituted few years ago.
From the librarians It was learned that
the most read of all the books in the IL
put into the embossed type for the sight
less. as this kind of printing is very ex-
pensive. and great care must be exer-
cised in selection. Only the standard
for blind readers. History and biogra
ply are much read subjects.

EARTH's SMALLEST COLONY
