PRICE WAS PRETTY LOW
Publishers Bid for Printing Supreme Court
, Reports. e. .

rSpOTIS.
|. Two rival publishers appeared before the
mouse judiciary committee yesterday to
argue their claims on the contract for
printing supreme court reports during the
next SIX years. The war has led to a radi-
cal reduction Of prices. Originally 4 bill
was introduced to renew the contract
made with George P. Dufresne. This fixes
the price of the volumes at $3.50. Another
plll was put In to give the contract To the
heefe-Dav1dson company at S1.25. Du-
1resne met this price, and TO-DAY Mr.
Chinook, in behalf of the Keefe-DavEdson
cornpanS. reduced their price to 81 1o[ The
discussion became rather heated and some
ancient history was rehearsed by r, E.
Mcdonald, who was a member Of the com
.nlttee SIX years ago, which made the con-
tract with Dufresne. The contract u1a q at
mat time taken away from the West Pub
llshlns company on account of variol1s diff
hcult1es and the point was made i'm the
depate that the responsible member df the
west publishing company at that time ia
now leading stakeholder in the Keefe-
davidson company, which underbid Du-
1resne Mr.. .Clague asserted that last
week Mr.. Davidson told him there W "a no
money IN the contract at $1.25 and they
would not cut that price. Mr.. Keefe who
appeared before the committee, sajh bis
company could make money at s.. 10. Mr.
Dufresne said he could not meet that |nrice
and only bid $1.25 because he did not want
to lose the value of the old plates sew
eral questions were raised by Mr. Tiehe
ana at MS suggestion referred to a SUBJ
committee consisting Of Messrs. Helliwell
Clague and -Perley They will invesaieate
whether the state could compel Mr. Du-
fresne to continue publication of the old
volumes If contract is changed, and also
why briefs are not printed in the reports
The question was laid over for week, at
which time this committee will report

ested IN the price, though as Mr.. Shearer

NO COUNTY DIVISION
But Range Towns May Get Separate
Term Of Court.

J. The range towns in ST. Louis county
are anxious for separation from Duluth,
and one of the range papers last week an
nounced that Senator Hawkins and Rep
resentative Bowling, who are both from
the range, would try to put through a bill
dividing the county. Both gentle
men deny any knowledge Of such a move
ment. Mr.. Bowling says, however, that
he will probably try later on to put
through a bill providing for holding a
separate term of the district court in one
of the range towns. This is very much
desired by some Of the attorneys, who OBJ

a Bold Stand.
England UphoIds the Monroe Doctrine
and Warns the Powers.

England UpnOl0S inc M0llroe poStriie
and Warns the Powers.
London, March 6 6-Foreign Secre-
tary Landsowne has proclaimed a
British Monroe doctrine in the Per-
sian Gulf and practically notified the
powers that any sttempt on their
part to establish naval base or fort
flied post in those waters means war
with Great Britain.
Il say without hesitation" said the
foreign secretary, in dealing with the
subject in the House of Lords, 1--WE
should regard the establishment OF
a naval base or fortified port in the
Persian Gulf by any other power as
very grave menace to British inter-
ests, and should certainly resist it
with all the means at disposal"
Landsowne preceded this enuncia-
ton of the British policy by review
of the situation there as it affected
British interests, contending so far
as the navigation OF the Persian
Gulf was concerned Great Btitian
held position different from the
others, both because, owing to British
enterprises and expenditures Of life
and money, that gulf was now open
to the commerce of the world, and
because, the protection of the sea
route to India was necessary to Brit
ish predominance in the gulf.
Landsowne's attitude in this mat
ter generally meets approval, although
the answers thereto of the other pow
ers interested in tue gulf are awaited
with some anxiety.
The Westminster Gazette holds
that the British motive, namely, the
protection of the sea route to India,
correspond with Americas motive in
excluding European powers from
American waters because the terri
tory is thereby threatened.
