A New Mexico correspondent sends to
Case and Comment the following letter
written by newly elected justice of
the peace In that territory some twenty
years ago, when conditions We're some
what more primitive than now:
81 wish you would send me fee bill
for justices and constables. | have but
one law book in my office. and that is a
last years almanac and does not con-
tain fee bill.
II had my first case yesterday, and
the jury promptly found verdict for
the plaintiff, and charged the defend
ant $50 costs. He kicked, and | reduced
1t to $l5, which he paid. | then
'whacked up with the constable, which
I thought would be about right. If l
don't hear from you before the next
case comes on the costs will be $50.
This thing has got to pay"

One of the most remarkable pieces of
nature sculpture in California is the
George Washington rock. about thirty
five miles northwest of Los Angeles, in
the Santa susanna mountains, says the
Sunset Magazine. A chiseled monu-
ment could hardly bear truer likeness
to George Washington than this chance
picture in the ragged contour of a huge
bowlder. Viewed from one point, and
only one, 1t stands out sharp and dis
tinct against the sky. From all other
points the rock Is shapeless mass.
The image measures full twenty-five
feet from chin to brow and Is close to
the top of the hill. In the vicinity have
been found Indian relics -ovens, stones
containing Indian writings, arrow
heads, mortars- and many traces Of a
settlement of aborigines.

The Good Fellows.

The Toledo Blade, in an article on
this subject, says:
Your good fellow is popular for
the time being, but when his money
is gone and he has lost his job and is
on his uppers, the good fellow bust
ness doesn't get him anything. It's
poor fellow then, another man gone
wrong, and the boys are ready to
hail another good fellow who has
the price.
We donr mean by this to say that
the boys are mercenary. They don't
altogether pass up n good fellow
when he goes broke, but it isn't the
same. They feel sorry for him, but
he is out of it. His good fellowship

FREIGHT AGENTS
DEFER MEETING
Conference Over Flour and
Wheat Rates Postponed
Till Wednesday.

Several days delay has become neces-
sary an the proposed conference between
the railroad pen regarding the grievance
OF the Minneapolis miIlers over the dis
crlmlnation which the present rates for
shipments to the Atlantic make between
wheat and flour in favor of the former.
W.~L. Martin. general freight agent of
the 500 line and chairman of the -four
mill Committee of the Twin City Freight
Association. stated yesterday that in con-
sequence of being unable to get all the
lines interested in the matter to get to-
,gether earlier it had been necessary to
postpone the meeting that was proposed
to be held today until next Wednesday.
They will then meet in Chicago Mr.
Martin said:
"All the lines here are agreed to ac-
cord vthe best treatment possible to the
mlllers, but every road out of here has
two If not three others, to consult be-
fore any decision can be arrived at and
therefore nothing will be done until after
next Wednesdays meeting
Some of the millers appear to be dis
satisfied that they have not been asked to
take %paIt in thes conference, but the con-
ldence they have in the business of their
demands and the assurance they possess
OF the good will of the local railroad men
lead to the expectation of nothing else
than a favorable outcome of the con-
troVersy.

Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
MADISON, Wis, April 23.-The SUI
perior grain inspection bill was killed
In the state senate today by a vote Of
II to 14-The opposition to the bill held
together and, say its supporters, plac-
ed the interests of Minnesota elevators
above the interests of Superior. Sem
ator Reukema, who was counted to
vote against the bill, caused a sensa-
ton when his name was called bv
stating that he had listened with at
tentfon to the arguments, and while
there might be q question, or at least
a doubt upon the bill, he was in favor
of giving the city of Superior the ben
eft of the doubt and voted against in
definite postponement
The debate on the measure lasted alI
day today and caused much feeling.
Those who favor the bill claim that
the opposition seeks to place the in
terests of Wisconsin below those OF
Minnesota in Importance. An alleged
interview with Senator Hudnall, faith
er of the bill, which appeared in a Chi
cago paper today, putting charges OF
bribery against the bill in his mouth,
was vigorously repudiated by Senator
Hudnall, who, however, said that the
matter of the truth of such charges he
was not prepared to discuss. They
might be true" he said.
The bill provides for the inspection
of grain at Superior, Wis, and prClid-
ing an appropriation of $4,000 thereA
for. A large delegation of Dakotans
recently appeared in favor of the meas
ure and another from Minnesota
against it.

WEST SUPERIOR, Wis., April %
Upon receiving the news of the defeat
of the Wisconsin grain bill in the state
senate, the Superior Board of Trade
officials announce that they will force
elevators to operate under TIE law OF
1885 or close. The law gives the i'm
spection into the hands of the Superior
Board of Trade entirely, and in th8
failure of the recognition of this law
the Minnesota inspectors will be driv-
en- out. No warehouse receipts can be-
issued, and the elevator men will not
be able to ship from here

smilingly assembled the rostrum and as
he did so Mr.. Allen, who was still oc-
cupying the chair, extended his hand
in a friendly way. The house ap-
plauded. Speaker Miller called the
house to order and a recess till
o'clock was taken.
During the recess five representa-
tives Of the speakers friends and five
of the opposition went into conference
to agree upon a settlement. 1t was
agreed that the action of the house on
the Indy bill should be reconsid-
cred and that tomorrow there should
be roll call on amendments that were

Amid wild confusion, Representative

MI. Rinaker moved the appointment of
a committee of five to investigate the
matter, the committee to be appointed
by Speaker Miller. The speaker
promptly put the motion and declared
1t carried. The house then adjourned.
