Ennlne Horse Gives Out.

Burning paper in the basement of the
Sherman hotel, Fourth and Sibley,
brought out the fire department about
$3.50 last night. There was no damage
still alarm brought some of the ap-
paratus to Eighth and Robert, where
small shed on Eighth street between
Robert and Jackson, was burning. The
damage amounted to about $40.
One of the horses on the hose wagon
from Engine House No. gave out on
the way to the Eighth street fire, which
rang in a few moments after the alarm
for the Sherman hotel. The horse fell
to the pavement at Fifth and Robert
where it remained for nearly half an hour
before he could rise to his feet. The
horse finally got up and was little the
worse for the mishap.

CITY CANNOT ESCAPE
PAYING ITS JUST TAXES
Park Boards Application for Rebate
ment Turned Down.

At the meeting of the county board
of abatement yesterday afternoon an
application signed by President Joseph
Wheelock, of the park board, to have
the taxes related on block 2, of War
rendale's addition to the city, was con-
sidered, but no action was taken until
an opinion can be secured from the
corporation attorneys office. The
claim is advanced that the ground is
public property, inasmuch as it is used
for park purposes, and hence. should
escape taxation.
Assistant County Attorney O'Nein
informed the board that the abatement
could not be legally made, and that the
city must pay the full amount of the
taxes. There is no provision in the
statutes under which the city can es-
cape taxation

A. j. Rochne, Zumbrota newspaper
man, will try for Republican nomina-
ton to the house of representative in
the Zumbrota end of Goodhue county.
Senator Dan Shell, the heavyweight
of the upper branch of the legislature.
is pegging away for denomination in
the Nobles-Murray county district as
unconcerned as though there were no
opposition represented by Grass and
Weld, of Murray county. Shells friends
say he is entitled to another term;
that Mobiles county is entitled to the
SenatorSh1p again, anyhow, and that
If the Murray county fellows had wait
ed four years they might have had the
senatorship without fight.
George Wilson, Worthington, is a
candidate for Republican nomination
to the house. His success is believed
to hinge largely on the result of the
light between Murray and Mobiles
counties for the senatorial nomination,
as it is believed that those who vote
for Shell for senator will vote for a
Murray county man for representative.
Representative Frank Benolken, of
Freeport, StearnS county, has relieved

THAT is THE PLACE FOR BLIND
PlGGERs, SAYS JUSTICE
START
MERE FINES HAVE NO
REFORMATORY EFFECT
At Pardon Board Meeting He Declares
His Opposition to Committing I'M
prisonment Sentences Given in Ad-
diton to Fines-Many Applications
Denied

In the meeting of the board of par
dons held yesterday afternoon, Chief
Justice. Start, of the supreme court
expressed himself as being firmly op-
posed to the revocation or even COM
mutation of sentences of Imprisonment
imposed in addition to fines for VIOLA
tons of the liquor laws, or kindred Of
lenses against the moral welfare of a
local community. In explanation of his
position thus taken the chief justice
said in substance: .~,,r4 III
las long as the keepers of blind
pigs and resorts of like character,
and those who violate the other laws in
regard to the sale Of intoxicating
liquors are permitted to escape with
mere fines we will have frequently vio-
lations of those laws, but the enforce
ment of sentences of imprisonment has
marked effect in discouraging Of
lenses of that nature. OF course a
man who runs a bind pig will get
caught once in awhile, but the pay
ment of. fine is nothing to him; he
hgures on that, and unless the author
ltles are particularly vigilant, he can
get off>more cheaply in that way than
by paying the required license. If he
finds, however, that he must go to Jail
and remain there to the end of his SEN
tence, he will desist in his violation
of the law" '-.rfI 1a.-

The Bastrop Clarion very cor
rectly expresses our views con-
sperning the proposed repeal of
the Haggerty insurance bill, in the
following words:
We understand there will be an
effort made to repeal the insur-
ance act enacted at the last ses-
sion of the State Legislature,
commonly known as the "no val
uation clause" That is the law
requiring insurance companies to
pay to the insured the full amount
of the policy for which his prop
erty is insured and upon which he
pays premium, in case of loss.
This law has met the universal
endorsement of the property own
ers throughout the State. A SIM
liar enactment is incorporated in
to the statutes of nearly all of
the other States. 1t is founded
on reason, justice and common
sense, and it would be Il serious
reflection On the wisdom of our
law-making power to permit it to
be disturbed.
