Athletes From Chicago University
Take Hold.

Chicago, April 11.-Five students of the
University of Chicago, prominent in ath-

HOPE FOR ROAD PLAN
Passage Of Some Highway Commits
sion Is Not Wholly I'm
" probable.
Senate in Committee of the Whole
Is Yesterday Indorsed Such
V A. Bill.

Altho the house of representatives has
already killed highway commission bill,
there is still some hope that Similar,
proposition may be put thro before the
session closes. The senate yesterday in
committee Of the whole favored the pas
sage Of the bill prepared by the road and
bridge committee for the purpose of Gre
ating a state highway commission of
three. Under this bill the commission
ers are to investigate and determine the
location of road material in the state,
to ascertain the most improved methods
of construction by inquiring into the
laws and systems of other states and to
hold at least thirty public meetings
thruout the state annually for the pur
pose of disseminating the knowledge thus
attained. - =, fs; .r.->'. .
The commission will examine applica
tions for aid in the construction of roads
by county commissioners. If the plans
submitted are approved. the commission
may authorize the county to let the con-
tract to the lowest bidder. One third Of
the cost will be paid by the state, for
which state tax of 1-20 Of mill is pro-
vided. ..'~
Several of the country members op-
posed the bill, remarking that it was only
another game by the "city fellows to
create another commission so that there
would be some more jobs at good salaries
for these same people. The "city fellows"
in the senate. however. did not raise
their voices either to defend the bill or
themselves. Sena tors A. o. Eberhart
of Mankato, F. II. Peterson of Moor
head, G. A. Johnson of ST. Peter and
Henry Morgan Of Albert Lea earnestly
advocated the passage of the bill as being
Of direct and ever increasing benefit to
the country, and particularly to the
farmers.
The real opposition to the bill comes
from the legislators who want the inter-
nal Improvement fund cut up among the
senators who have the "pull," for dis
tribuation in their district wherever it
will "do the most good.'' The policy to
which the legislature has long been COM
mitted of apportioning about $500 to ma
jority of the counties, has not begun to
accomplish what the same amount of
money should do if handled intelligently
and with systematic plan in view.

THESE ARE TEMPORARY
Boards Of Cancellation and Arbitra-
tion to Settle Strike Diff
ficulties.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, April 11.-Compulsory arbitra-
tion will be the eventual method of
settling labor difficulties, according to
opinion expressed last night by John A.
Hobson Of Oxford, England, at Lewis in
stitute. After review Of social condi-
tions in England and the United States,
Mr.. Hobson's conclusions were that the
functions Of the state in regulating labor
and it's products will be extended to settle
strife between employer and employe.
''Yet this is not necessarily a step to-
ward socialism, he said. 'tIn my opinion
boards of arbitration and conciliation are
Inadequate remedies. They are all right
at present. perhaps, but they are only
temporary"

where Riches sIie

The great fortunes Of the country have
been made largely from the construction
and operation of mines. The richest
states are the mineral states. The per
capita wealth in Colorado, Nevada, Idaho,
Montana, Washington and Oregon is from
two to four times the per capita wealth
of New York and the New England
states. The health, per capita, Of the
west is being greatly increased by golden

MEN AND MEASURES

Senator George B. Hudnan of Superior,
a member of the upper branch of the
Wisconsin legislature, visited the Mime
sofa legislature yesterday. The badger
legislators took a weeks vacation, as they
can do without arousing public clamor,
their pay being $500 for a session of any
length. Senator Hudnall expects their
session to last until June on account Of
the deadlock between the senate and the
assembly over the railroad and primary
election bills. He is author of the bill
creating a state grain inspection for Wis
consin. on this bill he says:
Il had not supposed there would be any
opposition within our state to such bill,
but it has developed in my own town.
The trouble is that the elevators there
take the Minnesota inspection, but escape
the Minnesota law which makes all ele-
.vators of the kind public elevators. My
bill would make them public elevators.
The Duluth elevators have evaded the en-
forcement of this law by threatening to
move to West Superior, and now our
Wisconsin elevators threaten that if the
law is passed they will move over to Du-
luth. If both states have such law and
enforce it there will be no moving gs..a,s,
Senator Hudnall says the proposed trade
of islands between Wisconsin and Min
nesota has fallen thru. The Wisconsin
legislators did not approve of the La
for fear 1t would be used for a beer gar
den, and were unwilling to make the
reciprocal cession Of an island to Red
Wing for the same reason.
The senators seem to look kindly on
| the state highway commission, and passed
the committee bill yesterday, which will
now go up to the house for another trial.
| The principal obstacle to the bill seems
to be that it would knock out the fat
| list of road and bridge appropriations
being made up by the road and bridge
committee, which will be about the only
strong card some of the members will
have to play when they get home.
| Senator Laybourn's anti-grand jury bill
seems to be having easier sailing in the
| house than it had in the senate, where it
| got through in spite of an adverse COM
n1ttee report. The house judiciary COM
| mittee recommended the bill for passage
yesterday 1t should be understood that
the bill is a constitutional amendment
| which must be submitted to the people
next year. If adopted it will strike from
| the constitution the provision that per-
sons accused Of felony can only be tried
on indictment by the grand jury, and sub
stitute the words ''by due process of law"
This would permit the legislature to do
away with grand juries, and substitute
for an Indictment presentment by thu
| prosecuting attorney.
Minneapolis aldermen will get half a
loaf out Of the Gjertsen bill, which they
| will probably agree to better than no
| bread. AS the senate passed the bill, it
| gives the aldermen $500 instead of 81 200,
| raising them $3O0. The mayors salary is
doubled, being raised to $4,000, the same
| figure. as in the Shove bill, which the
| house passed.
