ERECT FIRST FORT TO
FIGHT BAKING TRUST
st. Paul Baking Company, on Old Y.
M. c. A. Site, Will Be Com
pleted Soon.

BY the first of the year the baking
trust will have formidable rival in
the shape Of the st. Paul Baking COM
pany, the building and plant which
Is now being erected and installed al
Tenth and Minnesota streets.
The structure, which will cover the old
Y. M. G. A. foundations. adjoining the
plant of the Collins Printing company
is being erected by D. r. Noyes, and
when completed will represent an ex-
penditure of nearly $4,000. This is ex-
elusive of the foundation. Following its
completion the most modern baking
plant in the Northwest will be in
stalled by Huge Schlenk, formerly
president of the st. Paul Cold Storage
company.
Roughly estimated I think the ma
chinery that we will install will figure
in cost close to $25,000," said Mr.
Schlenk last night, though it may ex-
coed that amount. 1t will be built on
scientific principles and will be modern
in every respect. We intend to do a
general line of baking, and will make
a strong effort to regain for st. Paul
it's prestige in this particular line OF
business"
Alphabetically the building will be
a counterpart OF the structure Occu-
pied by the Collins Printing company
but will only be two stories high, ex-
elusive of the basement The plans
have been ordered by Mr.. Moves SC
that additional stories can be added
The building will have seventy feet
frontage on Tenth street and a depth
Of 100 feet
Mr.. Schlenck's company was incor-
porated several weeks ago, and
though the promoters are not inclin-
ed to talk as to their future plans, is
supposed to be one of several plants
now being constructed in the North
west for the purpose of attacking the
trust, known as the National Baking
company.
have it's plant in full operation by the
first of the year. Plans for the super
structure were filed with the city
building department Yesterday by D
r. Noyes. The foundations. which Were
originally constructed for Y. M. C
A. building, are now being remodele6
to fit the new structure.

ROSS CLARKE SPENDS
SIX HUNDRED ONLY
Advertising Was Cheap for Defeated
Candidate for Clerk of the
Courts.

Ross Clarke, late a candidate for the
Republican nomination for clerk of the
district court, yesterday filed a sworn
confession that he gave UP $685. for the
honor of not getting there.
Mr.. Clarke declares that his extern
sive newspaper advertising, in which
he attacked the claims Of E. G. Rogers
to a denomination, cost him $500. He
also paid $50 for clerk hire, $125 for
photographic portraits Of himself and
for the printing, 500 for livery bills,
postage. etc., and $40 for the fling fee.
The items make total of $605.
Thomas Greedy, who failed to get the
Democratic nomination for the legis-
lature in the Thirty-fourth district,
paid $25.
1t cost Peter Bohland $25 to discover
that his fellow Republicans would not
nominate him for county commissioner.

Committee Gets Vote of Members,
Which Stands 81 to Against Present
System-WouId Also Do Away With
Christmas Bottles.

If expressed opinions count for any
thing the next session of the legisla-
ture will see the passage of law
abolishing the free lunch and Incl
dentaIly the Christmas bottle.
Recently the Bloomington, Ill, city
council approved an ordinance making
it a misdemeanor to serve free lunch
and make the annual present of a
Christmas bottle. The st. Paul Liquor
Dealers association took the matter
up and in order to- obtain expressions
from their members, had printed a per-
forated blank and mailed one to each.
These they were requested to fill out
as to their views in the matter, sign
and return.
Can 1t Be True?
OF the 800 sent out, George Hart, the
chairman Of the committe, yesterday
received Sc replies, and of the number
"a favored an anti-free lunch law. Ali
Of this number were also in favor Of
abolishing the Christmas bottle.
Some weeks ago an effort was made
prohibiting the serving of free lunch,
but it was found the measure would
be of no effect Should the remainder
of the replies be of the same tenor as
those so far received an effort will be
made by the local association to Sc
cure passage by the legislature Of
laws abolishing the two evils.

Hamilton ighe Fight Goes Over.

Four Ramsey county contests over

Of the district court in place Of John
Wagner, who was returned by the
canvassing board as having led the
poll, was disposed of by Judge Jag
gard in short order. He announced
that, on the papers filed by the con-
testant, he would appoint referees to
recount the vote. Counsel for Mr..
WAGNER offered no opposition, and,
the attorneys conserving, the court
named w. r. Begg, Edward Dahl and
w. H. Williams to hear and determine
the contest.
The Hamilton Tighe fight over the
Republican nomination for the legisla-
ture in the Thirty sixth district was

Franklin H. Griggs, while B. H.
Schriber and Frederick Zollman ap-
peared for the respondents.
Mr.. Schriber contended that the pc
tition should be denied because the
primary election law made no provi-
sion for the determination of contests,
nor any reference to the appropriate
sections of the states general election
statute Other grounds of dismissal
were alleged, including the INSULT
cheney of the petitioners affidavits, but
counsePs chief point was that the ap-
plication must fall for lack of juris-
diction in the court to review the find
ings Of the canvassing board.
Mr. Griggs declared that he was
ready to produce conclusive evidence
that votes cast for his client had been
counted out. In one precinct, he said,
he had eight witnesses who would
swear that they voted for Mr.. Ander-
son, but the judges of election had
only returned one vote for him in that
precinct.
Brill lnterprets Law.
Judge Brill announced his view of
the case. 1t would be the height Of
inequity, he said, in substance, If the
fact that the omission from the pri-
mary law of any provision for a re-
count left the candidate without re-
course for a scrutiny of the vote, and
bound him by the returns of the pri-
mary election judges. Such, in the
judges opinion, was not the intent of
the law. 1t contemplated the possibil-
ity Of errors in the counting of the
votes, but made no specific provision
for their review because the general
statute was broad enough to cover all
the cases likely to arise under the new
statute. Therefore, he had decided in
the interest Of justice and equity to
order recount.
The case was then adjourned to
Tuesday at p. M, when Judge Brill
will announce the referees appointed
to conduct the examination of the bal
lots.

PRODUCES HEART BEATS.

Interesting Discovery Reported From
the University of Chicago.
CHICAGO, Dec. 9.-The discovery of
q new means of causing rhythmic beats
in a strip of heart muscle Is announced
from the University of Chicago. The
stimulus is oxygen, and DIR. David j.
Lingle is the discoverer. He has been
working on the lines of Professor
Loeb's announcement made two years
ago that a solution Of salt would start
a heart to pulsating.
1T has long been known that the
heart is extremely sensitive to Oxygen
and to carbon dioxide, the gas pro-
duced in vitiated air, but heretofore the
action of oxygen has been thought to
be confined to the publication of the
blood. DIR. Lingle shows that this gas
has the power directly to sustain the
beats of strip of heart muscle re-
moved from the body of a turtle and
to keep it going for from twenty-four
to seventy-two hours. Even then the
muscle stopped only because dissolu-
ton set in, and, In fact, the strip con-
tinued to beat for twenty-four hours
of the seventy-two with part OF it al
ready dead.

the speaker, but under their rules
those representative were obliged
TO petition their creature, the speak
,er, and pray for permission to legis-
late as a majority desired to repre-
sent. And what came of it? Speaker
Reed said that he would "give it con-
sideration." He was as good as his
word. He did give the matter con-
sideration until the close of the con-
gress, but he did not permit the ma
jority to rule. He never allowed the
bill to come before the house at all.
Now it does not require a consti-
tutional lawyer to explain that the
constitution of this republic of the
people never intended that one man
should throttle the representatives
of the people, and prevent them
from legislating. That is the stand
which is taken by Col. Hepburn and
n majority of the house; and that
is the reason that it is easy to fore
