And Primary Voters Must Still Declare
- Party Preferences. ..~-f
In committee Of the WHOLE late yester
day afternoon, the house killed two pri-e
mary election bills, both Of which were
designed to enable a voter to vote without
declaring his party affiliation. One Of the
bills was introduced by Representative
Bowling of Eveleth and provided that Not-
ers should be given blank ballots of all
parties and should return all to. the
Judges, marking but one. The other bill.
the joint work Of Mr.. Lemon of st. Paul
and Mr.. Anderegg Of LIE Sueur, called for
a blanket ballot, on which the voter was
to mark the candidates of only one party.
Both measures We're: Indefinitely post.

Minneapolis will complete her courthouse

apOliS courthouse and city hall commission
to issue bonds to the amount Of $500, 900,
with which to continue the work on the
building, was passed by the senate this
morning under suspension of, the rules.
Senator ]. It. MCGOWAN was the only MEM
Der to vote in the negative. =
The Hennepin delegation had reconsid-
cred it's former decision to limit the bond
issue to $500 This sum was wholly un-
satisfactory as it would not complete any
portion of the building. On representa-
ton Of the commissioners that $40O,000
would complete the building to the last
detail, the Hennepin legislators finally
| agreed to let them try. This sum will pro-
vide funds for completing the main en-
| trance on Fourth street. which is to be
a magnificent affair: 1t will also provide
a lookup on the fifth floor on the city
side and fit UP the fourth floor for the
municipal court, the municipal judges and
| the health department. :
AS the house members have agreed to
the bill, it's passage is assured.

| chair at the time and could neither speak
nor vote on the question of indefinite post
ponement, which was carried "a to 81.
AS soon as Senator Horton could get
down on the floor, however, he proceeded
to block the game. Later on his activity
produced results and Senator Brewer
moved that the senate reconsider it's ac-
ton. This prevailed and Mr.. Horton fol-
lowed with motion that the Gregory bill
be printed and advanced to general orders
which was carried
Early in the session the senate by a de-
cisive vote killed the Horton antt-vaccina-
