The Saint Paul globe., 1903-01-14

St. Paul and Ramsey county were
never better cared for in the matter of
house committee assignments than in
the list given out by Speaker Babcock
yesterday. Besides drawing four i'm
portant chairmanships, the Ramsey
county delegation is well represented
on every committee worth while from
local standpoint.
In making up his committees DR..
BabcOck did not draw the party line
and the Ramsey Democrats, though
naturally enough failing to land the
head of any committee, are splendidly
placed on important assignments where
they will be able to do good work for
their constituents and the state.
The four chairmanships given Ram
sey's delegation are appropriations,
Tighe; municipal legislation, Chinook;
engrossment, Fulton; printing, Lemon.
Each of the eleven members of the
Ramsey delegation has from four to
seven committee assignments, and
without exception on the most desirable
subdivisions.
Tighe, who heads the appropriations
committee, will also serve on judiciary,
labor and labor legislation, crimes and
punishmentS, and corporations other
than municipal.
Chinook, the Busy Man.
Renville Chinook has the largest
number of committee assignments
aside from the important craftsmanship
or the committee on municipal legiSIa-
ton, he draws second place on public
buildings, and will serve rules insur-
ance, banks and banking, judiciary and
appropriations.
Walter Lemon, the youngest man in
the house, draws the chair of the print
ing committee, one of the most sought
after appointments, and besides a place
on the state prison committee, places
h.
bodies-judiciary, railroads and appro-
priauOnS.
Thomas c. Fulton is the only old
member on the Republican side of the
Ramsey delegation. He draws the chair
OF the engrOSsment committee, and is
placed on taxes and tax laws, insur-
ance, hospitals for the insane and ap-
prOpriatiOns.
Joel E. Gregory draws no chairman
ships, but is placed on the Judiciary,
public lands, municipal legislation, in
surance and general legislation.
Democrats Well Placed.
Representative James r. Hickey, the
Democratic leader, draws places on six
of the most desirable and important
committees. He has second place on
rules, and has railroads, public build
ings, second place on printing, appro-
priatiOns and local bills
Jacoby gets soldiers home, municipal
legislation, labor and military affairs.
Yoerg draws places on prison, labor
general legislation, corporations other
than municipal and banks.
McCou is placed on six committee
all of them desirable enough to be the
objects of scrambles. His committee
places are on towns and counties, tenn
perance legislation, public health, adu-
cation, engrOssment and corporations
other than municipal
leaders at the last session, shows up
strong with places on public buildings,
insurance, forestry, corporations other
than municipal and appropriations
Handlan is placed on state library
Illuminating oils and labor and labor
legislation.
The Ramsey county delegation has

mittee, four on judiciary, three on rail-
roads, four on insurance, two on print
ing, and two on rules.
