THE PHILIPPINE MARKET.

The city of St. Paul is worth more market than
the whole OF the Philippine islands.
There about $4,000 people in St Paul and about
100000 in the Philippine islands One resident of
this city is worth fifty Filipinos a customer.
Furthermore, it the United States government

law and order except for occasional apses from the
proper path. No mcnacing army is needed for that
purpose
The bureau of insular affairs of the department
at Washington has recently made public the statistics of
trade of the Philippine islands: During the eleven months
ending with Nov 80 the total imports of the islands
last calendar year valued $25,567 26oo which
latter business the United States secured $Iooooooo.
Thus it is that the entire group of Philippine
islands bought of the of the world the of

DISREGARD TIeHE's THREAT.
House Declines to Send Fish Hatchery
Bill to His Committee.

Regardless of Representative Tighe's
threat to throw the responsibility for
all appropriations on the house that
body yesterday braved the Seventh
ward mans displeasure and recon-
mended the second fish-hatchery bill
to pass.
bill itself but to the fact that While it
carries an appropria ton it has not been
referred to his committee. Representa-
tive Ofsthun, author of the bill, argued
that his bill had been recommended
for passage prior to adoption of the
rule referring all appropriation bills
to be passed upon by the appropriations
committee.
Mr. Tighe insisted that it was to the
states best interest that the Ofsthun
Dill and all similar measures should be
passed upon by his committee and that
such submission was only courtesy to
which he and his committeeman are
entitled. To pass the Ofsthun bill
without reference to the appropriations
committee, he said, would in effect
call almost all of the bills out of the
committee. These bills he said, ag-
gregate something between $4,000 900
and $30,000,000. If the Ofsthun bill was
not permitted to go to his committee
he was prepared to report all bills out
and permit the house to shoulder all
the responsibility for it's appropria-
lions.
The Ofsthun bill was recommended
for passage by an almost unanimous
vote.

THE DECORATING OF MIKE.

1t has graciously pleased his majesty, Edward VII
Dillingham;, confer Sir Michael Herbert, ambaSsa-
dor from Great Britain the United States the grand
cross Of the Order of St Michael and St George. The
decoration is a recognition of the work done by Sir
Michael conducting the delicate little bit of side
stepping necessary to getting the best of it for his
eregn IN the negotiations with Minister Bowen the
Venezuelan affair.
1t has not often occurred to a British sovereign to
pick out person bearing the Christian worn by
the British ambassador Washington for distinction
History IS in evidence that persons bearing the of
Michael prone to be mathematical rather than COM
mended at the British For ages Mike has been
bugbear to the monarch of Britain. The whole long
line of him from the times of the early Henrys down to
the day Of Michael Davtt has brised with pixies and
plots all aimed the Sassenach ruler The disposition
OF the Sassenach has been suspend Mike by the neck
or send him into penal servtude rather than to put
handle to his name.
1t is that the present ambassador of the king
OF England to these United States is not identified to
any marked degree with the persons of his name who
have proved troublesome the Irish sea This
OF course, had much weight with Edward when he
considering the decoration of Mike Herbert. The grand
of the Order of ST Michael and St George is not
to be lightly conferred The decoration weighs about
four pounds and much dignity is necessary to the sup
port of it.
But it is not to be doubted that Sir Michael earned
his reward Being of that honorable class of men who
lie abroad for the good of their country" his work has
to be fine fine for the average citizen to appreciate
AS matter OF fact appeared the ordinary eye that
Sir Mike has been induced by Mr. Bowen to invest some
OF the savings of his sovereign a rather badly giIded
brick
But his gracious majesty knows what he is doing and
the matter IS between him and Sir Mike. The vulgar
American will be reminded by the fact the decoration
that there is something sinister in the gift the grand
crosSt IS suggestive of what the sporting man would
call the double cross which Sir Mike apparently got in
the game of diplomacy.

amendment no proposed changes had
been. adopted
He insisted that with the legislature
compelling a majority vote and con-
Ventlons requiring a majority vote, it
was not right to ask that constitution
al amendments be adopted by % or
80 per cent of the vote He declar-
ed that the objections to the present
amendment were being gradually over
come, and believed that with the ques-
lions sufficiently agitated a complete
vote could be secured. In his opinion
the Lord suggestion was unwise and
dangerous, and he saw no reason for
making the change.
Senator Brewer came to the rescue
OF the threatened measure and de-
nounced law that made it possible
for an amendment to have thousands
of votes for and but one against and
still be rejected. If the voters could
not be made to recognize the amend
mentS, and failed to vote, then he
thought this failure should not be
counted against the measure up for
adoption.
"A wide open tax amendment" said
Senator Brewer will be delayed just
so long as we oppose the passage of
some such rational measure as this"
Senator Thompson thought that
change was needed, as conditions I'M
der the Australian election law differ
from the conditions of the former cleo
uonS. Then there was some chance to
instruct the voters, now he went into
his booth with the entire matter
blank to him.
Senator Putnam objected to any
measure making the adoption of con-
sttutional amendments more easy. He
believed that every safeguard should
be thrown around the constitution, and
referred to the difficulty encountered in
an attempt to amend the constitution
of the United States.
Senator Schaller denied the claims of
the friends of the Lord bill that the
ignorant neglected to vote. He insist
ed that it was not ignorance, but eau
ton, and declared that in this case
the silence Of the voters was a Ian
guage.
Senator Lord called attention to the
fact that there was no danger in sub
hitting his proposed amendment to the
vote of the people, as it would have
to be adopted by majority of the vOt-
ers of the state, and if they adopted
1t, 1T was evidence that they wanted it.
He 1nsised that it was merely giving
the people chance to say whether
they wanted the change or not, and
he saw no reason for the excitement.
Closing he again moved favorable re-
port for his bill
Senator Dunn Immediately moved as
a substitute that the bill be recon-
mended for indefinite pOstponement
This motion carried.
Senator Lord was not through, and
had his bill excepted from the report
of the committee. He then demand
ed a call of the senate, and a roll call
on Senator Ferris motion to kill the
excepted bill. The roll call ended the
measure.

GJERTsEN is SUSPICIOUS.
Says Torsen Bucket Shop Bill is Back
Fire Proposition.

Trouble will start in the senate to-
day if the Gjertsen bucket shop bill is
taken up when general orders is
reached.
The Gjertsen measure was at the
head of general orders yesterday morn
ing, and the senator from Hennepin
moved that the bill be recommended
for passage. Senator Horton moved
as a substitute that progress be re-
ported in order to permit the senate
to consider the Gjertsen and Torsen
bills at the same time
To this Senator Gjertsen filed a pro-
test. He declared that he had been
informed that the Torsen bill was iden-
teal with his measure with the eX-
ception of one section but that he had
discovered that the other measure was
simply an attempt of the forces oppos-
ing him to strike back.
Senator Putnam, of the judiciary
committee, declared that the Torsen bill
was a broad bill, While the Gjertsen
measure was restricted measure and
advised the senate to hold the Gjertsen
bill until the TOrSen bill caught up
with it. The senate reported progress
on the measure with the understanding
that the two be taken up for consider
alton this morning.

Next choice was the institution of a

PROHIBITION IN VERMONT
MUCH LESS THE RAGE
Large Number of Towns Vote in Favor
of Liquor Selling.

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, VT,
March 4.-More government cities and
towns at their annual elections have
voted in favor of the selling of intox-
icating liquor than favored the change
from prohibition to high license in the
general vote last month"; while in those
communities still opposed to the traf-
fic the majOrities have as a rule been
decidedly reduced. The state. after
fifty years of prohibition, decided u
month ago to permit the cities and
towns to decide the question of grant
ing the sale of liquor restricted by
high license. The majority at that time
was decidedly small, about thousand
in a total of 10000 and from the re-
suit it was believed that the state
might possibly return to prohibition
in the next two or three years.
But by the last vote it appears that
there is a more decided sentiment
throughout the state in favor of liquor
selling than Il month ago. Eighty
three cities and towns voted in favor
of license.
In every one of the six cities of the
state, Burlington, Montpelier, Rutland,
f Barre st. Adams and Vergennes. liquor
will be openly sold on April l for The
first time in half century.

TAX SLEEPING CARS.
Nelson Bill is Aimed at Palace Car and
Freight Handling Concerns.

A substantial increase in the total
taxes paid by sleeping car and freight
line companies operating in Minnesota
Is the avowed object of two bills intro
duced III the house yesterday by Rep
resentative Nelson.
Under the present law the sleeping,
chair, palace and buffet car companies
and special freight handling companies
pay taxes only on their cars operating
entirely within the state. The Nelson
bills are designed to secure to the state
its pro rata share of taxes on cars
used in interstate traffic.
The bills provide for the assessment
of the property as provided under the
general laws for the assessment and
taxation of the property of individuals
or corporations, and provides the meth
cd of computing values on the capital
stock and bond basis proposed by the
tax code.
Sleeping cars owned and operated
by railroad companies are not affected
by the proposed law, as the companies
owning them are taxed under the gross
earnings law in lieu of all other taxes.
