of the memorial, and as senator after
senator insisted upon declaring that
while not clearly stating it, the reso-
luton was primarily directed to secur-
ing the removal of tariff on wheat, the
fate of the measure became apparent.
Senator Wilson made an earnest plea
for the adoption of the resolution, and
endeavored to point out that the meas
ure was merely intended to remedy
some of the existing evils made poSsi-
BILE by the present tariff laws. He used
the steel trust as an example, and quot
ed figures to show that a profit of 5
per cent on we'll watered stock was
made possible by the tariff.
He declared himself a Republican
from the beginning of his career, but
insisted that as a Republican he>could
not stand for these conditions. Closing,
he said that he did not believe it would
compromise any Democrat to vote for
the resolution, and surely not any Re
publican.
Senator Schaller, Democrat, support
ed the resolution, and suggested its
passage, as it involved nothing more
than a simple declaration on the part
of the senate. No reference was made
to wheat in the memorial and Schaller
did not believe in. looking for ghosts or
phantomS.
The other senators evidently did,
and in turn Dale, Cole, Durant, Rieke
and Peterson declared against chang
ing the existing conditions. Senator
Rieke said that, above all other things,
the best interests of the Northwest de-
mand that wheat be held from the free
list Senator Durant pointed out that
the reciprocity treaty between the
United States and Canada, in effect
from 1854 to 1864, worked to the adj
vantage of the Canadians. who played
havoc with the raiSers of wheat and
barley in the Eastern states. The CEN
ter of agriculture had moved West to
Minnesota, and he believed that the
state would be greatly harmed by the
removal of tariff on agricultural prod
ucts.
Senator Cole offered an amendment
to include only lumber, logs and agri-
cultural implements in the reciprocity
plans, and, with the others, declared
that the removal of the tariff on wheat
could not mean anything but disaster
to the grain raisers.
Senator Lord brought the debate to
an end by moving the previous ques-
ton. Senator Coles amendment came
forward for the first blow, and then the
roll was called on the original resolu-
ton. The vote follows:

The present law provides for the an

was made for the appointment of in

WOULD RAISE LITTLE FISH.
GIenwood Seeks $4,000 Appropriation
for New Minnow Farm,

An appropriation of $4,000 for the
establishment of a second state fish
hatchery at Glenwood, Pope county, is
asked in a bill introduced in the house
yesterday by Representative Ofsthun
The idea of second fish hatchery
is an attractive one to the citizens of
the western counties, and the members
of the game and fish commission. it is
said, are not at all unfriendly to the
proposition. 1t is no stranger in legis-
lative circles, but it has usually met
an inglorious death at the hands of
the members from the south counties,
who do not go into enthusiastic rap
lures about the game and fish commits
sion or its work at any stage of the
play.
Mr.. Ofsthuns bill, aside from proyi6.
Ing for first appropriation of $40, 900
and placing the proposed hatchery I'M
der the management of the state COM
mission, provides that the commission
may acquire lands for the same, either
by gift, purchase, lease or condemna-
ton. If condemnation becomes neces-
sary, it is to be secured through a
board of three resident, but non inter-
ested freeholderS.

GREAT WESTERN is
REVISING TRACK
IN IOWA
Work of Eliminating Curves
and Removing Excessive
Grades Is Progressing on
Branch Lines Running to
Fort Dodge-sixty Miles
Already Completed.

The Chicago Great Western is max
ing some extensive improvements to its
road in Iowa, and is ~expending large
sums in revising grades and curves.
The first of the work has been under
taken on the branches leading from the
main line to Fort Dodge. The two
branches which leave the main line at
Hayf1eld and Sumner, joining at Cla-
rion and thence running to Fort Dodge,
are now being overhauled.
The work was commenced a few
months ago and has already made con,
siderable progress. The work has been
let to a contractor, and the men are
kept engaged during the winter, for
the company desires to have the i'm
provements> completed as soon as pos
Sible.
This section of the Great Western
system was acquired from the Mason
City & Fort Dodge, and recently the
officials of the Great Western decided
that it would pay them to meet the ex-
pense of revising the road bed. Many
curves are to be eliminated, new steel
is to be laid and new grades are being
established where practicable. When
the work is completed. which will be
sometime this year, it is thought, the
road bed of this part of the Great
Westerns system will be in excellent
condition.
Already the work has made consid-
cradle progress. The two lines at pres
ent undergoing the revision consist Of
ESQ miles, and already 60 miles have
been completed. The work on the road
from Fort Dodge to Hayfield has pro-
crossed as far as Clarion, and on the
branch from Clarion to Sumner the
crews have laid track as far as Hamp
ton and beyond.
BY means of these improvements to
it's road bed the Great Western will cut
off many miles which are now con-
sumed in needless curves and heavy
grades, and traffic will be greatly facil-
itated by the elimination of extra mile
age.

BOOST BAZlLLE'S SALARY.
House Bill Provides Salary Of $4,000
fer Judue Of Probate.

'cF Juu9e OF PROBATE.
An increase of 81 600 per year in the
salary of Probate Judge Edmund w.
Bazille is tie object Of bill introduced
in the house yesterday by Renville
Chinook, Ramsey.
Mr.. Chinnock's bill provides that
judges of PROBATE IN counties of 10000
population or more shall receive a sal
airy of $1,000 per year. Judge Bazilles
salary is now $4,000. 1t is urged by the
friends Of the measure that the judge
of probate works as hard and carries
as much responsibility as the judges of
the district court, who receive $4,000
per year.
The difference is that the judges Of
the district court receive only 1925 per
month from the county; the state pay
ing the balance, while the entire salary
of the judge Of probate is paid by the
county. The bill is in the hands of the
Ramsey county delegation, where 1t is
expected 70 meet with friends only, and
as the state at large is not interested,
weather favorable to the reward Of
Judge Bazille's service is prognosti-
Gated.

OMAHA, Neb.. Jan. 30.-President Burt

sentatives of the striking shopmen of that

that thorough canvass Of strikers had
been made with the request that they
unanimously agreed that they could not
accept the piece work system.
PRESIDENT Burt replied that the men
could return to work under no other con-
d1tlon, and expressed himself as sorry
that the men would not give the system
trial.
The conference lasted fifteen minutes.
The labor leaders returned to Labor
temple and declared that a mass meeting
would be called at once and steps taken
by the strikers to extend the strike to all
parts of the Hartman system
PRESIDENT Mcneil stated that no plan
had yet been arranged for action on the
Southern Pacific, as it had been expected
that 1t would be unnecessary to bring the
men on tnat system into the strike, and
added that such action might be. deferred

SEEK NEW JUDICIAL DISTRICT.
Bill Originally Framed for McKusick's
Benefit AGAIN in Evidence.

Somewhat delayed and slightly less
beautiful, thanks to rough treatment
in former days, the bill for the crea-
ton of the Nineteenth judicial district
yesterday made its regular biennial
appearance in the house. a@e-a-s
The bill again has the sanction of
the member from Harris, who fathered
1T in the house two years ago. 1t was
then designed to provide a soft place
for the fall of Senator McKusick. The
object of the laudable measure did not
help much and it died after one spasm.
McKusick has had his fall, and great
was the same, but seat on the dis
trict bench would be a very satisfac-
tory emollient for his bruises.
The proposed district is to include
Pine, Chisago and Kanabec counties,
and the pleasant duty of appointing a
presiding judge, as soon as the bill is
enacted, is laid upon the governor.
There is a lurking suspicion in the
house that the governor will not be
called upon to select the new jurist for
quite a while
