CREATES. SINKING FUND
SENATE PASSES BUCK BILL
Representative Hickey In
troduces Bill to Enable st.
Paul to Secure Sewers and
School Buildings and Dis
tribute Expense Over
Period of Years.

A bill designed to permit the crea-
ton of sinking fund for St. Paul
and make needed local Improvements
possible was yesterday introduced in
the house by Representative Hickey, of
Ramsey.
Mr.. Hickey's measure is a bonding
measure pure and simple and its en-
actment would distribute the cost of
permanent improvements along through
some of the years in which their bene-
fits will be felt. The bill places no an
nual limit on the amount of bonds
which may be issued for refunding out
standing or maturing bonds or existing
debt.
For construction of bridges, main
sewers, public school buildings or mu-
nicipal buildings a 100000 limit is
placed and the amount for any one
year may not exceed 100000.
Issued by Councils.
Bonds may be authorized by a three
fourths vote of the common council,
and if issued for permanent improve
ments, may not be in an amount not in
excess of three-fourths of the cost Of
the Improvement, the bill requiring
one-fourth of the cost to be paid out
of the current tax levy
If bonds are issued tax of at least
one-half mill must be annually levied
and the proceeds turned into a sinking
fund from which 1t may not be divert
ed until the entire debt is wiped out. A
thirty-year limit is placed on the bonds
which may not be t1oated at a rate of
interest greater than 3 per cent and no
bonds may be issued in excess of the 10
per cent assessed valuation limit.

bill, both of which were recommended
for passage.
Both fights We're ugly and became
general and a long fight is expected

take away the public examiners fees

system which may result in new laws

preme court.

CUNNING Mr.. HANNA.

Mr.. Quay and Mr.. Foraker have en-
dorsed Mr.. Roosevelt, and want the
conventions of their respective States
to do likewise. 1t is not strange, there
fore, that Mr.. Hanna has not endors
ed him. as he, Mr.. Hanna, and the
aforesaid gentlemen do not always
think alike On great questions. Mr..
Hanna at the time of saying that be
did not want the approaching Ohio
convention to tie the hands of the con-
vention of 1904, took occasion to aver
that be is not presidential candidate
and will not be. Of course Mr.. Hanna
knows that a good round year, or
more, will intervene before the nomi-
nation is made. he knows further that
no less than two gentlemen from his
State have become presidents who were
not candidates when the convention
assembled; he knows too that the
trusts are power in the United States
and frequently force persons to do
what they do not wish. Such feat
as pushing Mr.. Roosevelt off the track
and pushing Mr.. Hanna on, might
prove very simple to the trusts in the
next national convention. The action
of Ohio now might embarrass the
trusts in their philanthropic efforts at
that time should they decide upon any
heroic treatment of the subject. Mr..
Hanna, therefore, has no idea of inter-
fering in any way with their liberties,
or their freedom of action. Caesar
thrice put away the crown. Grover is
putting up his hand as if to turn aside
destiny. Why should Mr.. Hanna en-
tirely cut himself off from opportunity?
The wise man seeketh not the office,
but as tiger maketh his lair close by
where the bison cometh to drink, 80
doth the wise man linger in the vicin-
ity where the office is, that if the Office
seeketh him it may know where he Is
to be found.

Lutheran Conference at Mt. Tabor.

| The Southern Conference of Virgin.
ia Synod held its semi-annual meeting
at Mt. Tabor Lutheran church last
week. There were present twelve
ministers and fifteen lay delegates
The topics discussed were very inter.
esting. Among them the following
| ''The Necessity, Agency and Means OF
the New Birth The speakers EN-.
phasized the fact that man is by nature
a lost creature, and is in need of the re.
generating grace of God. God has Civ
en- to mankind the means whereby we
may all become heirs with the saints
in light. These means of grace are the
| word and sacraments. The Holy
Spirit always works through and in
these ordained means, therefore the
saraments are not empty signs, and
the gospel of Christ is not an external
word, but quick and mighty.
The second subject was the relation
of the individual members to the con-
gregation.
a The church is not human institu-
ton. and is not to be compared in its
working to human societies, which
have to do only with morality, and
the external life of men. 1t pertains
to things of the soul, and should be
loved accordingly. There is no saliva
tion outside Of the church of Christ
when it is viewed Alright.
Some timely talks were given on the
training of children in the home that
they may be good members IN the
Lord g church.
They referred to the theory that par
ents have of leaving all the religious
training of their children to the pas
tor. The piety of community de-
ponds on the piety in the home
The reports from the pastors present
were all very encouraging.

THE MASSACRE IN RUSSIA.

There has been very startling
massacre of Jews at a town called
Kishenef in Russia, which has Just
come to light. 1t took place on Easter
Sunday, and is the deed of 80 called
Russian Christians, and hundreds were
slain, including old men, women and
children. Nobody was spared, and
the massacre was accomplished with
all the brutality known to such crimes.
Women were outranged and then kill
ed, little children were mangled and
torn as if by wild beasts, and horrors
which words cannot express were in
obliged in. The world has naturally
asked, why is this, and can it be true?
Within the last few days photographs
have been received in the United
States showing the deeds, and while
the Russian Ambassador to this cOun-
try, and even our Ambassador to that
country have denied the occurrence or
minimized and excused it. Now the
truth is out. and the blacklist crime of
modern times is fastened on a nation
which has been boastlng of good gov
eminent and deep Christian spirit.
Many excuses were given and many
more will be as to why this occurred.
1t WAS, they said, because the Jews
would not become farmers. Yet they
are not allowed to own land. 1t was
because they sought human blood for
sacrifices, and yet it was known that
this was lie framed by the priest
hood. 1t was because they lent money,
and yet babies were as much sought
fer slaughter as any of the Victims,
and babies could not lend money. And
what is the latest excuse is that the
Jews sought to defend themselves and
this Infatuated the populace. Ye gods,
were they to fold their arms and die
The Gar has been foremost in the
formation of peace congress. Can
any credit be given a monarch for sin
certify who allows such brutality, such
fiendishness to be practiced on human
beings? We think not. This crime
has stirred the civilized world, it is the
BLACKLIST in hundred years.

GRADUATING
Musical RecltaIs at Valley Seminary

Those who attend the musicals al
Valley Seminary have learned to ex.
pect only the highest order of classical
music, and the piano recital given re.
Gently by Miss Alleen Anislie, of Ten.
nessee, and the song recital by Hiss
Louise Hiner, of West Virginia, on
Saturday evening, were thoroughly en-.
ioyed by the musical people of Way
nesboro and number of visitors from
the neighbOring towns.
Miss Anislie's playing is exceeding
ly artistic, and while all of her selec
tions were rendered with skill and
power of expression, some of the mum
bers deserve especial mention. Hell
finished technique was shown in hel
graceful performance of The Spin
ming Song'' from the Flying Dutch
man. Her Interpretation of the Valit
from Chopin, Opus SO, was particular
| ly pleasing and the audience gave ex-
preston to its appreciation in an en-
!; thusiastic encore. Accompanied by
Miss johnson, her teacher, Miss Anlslit
gave the Andante and Presto move.
ments from MendelssOhn's Concerto In
G.. Minor. The Presto movement
shO wed to especial advantage the bril-
liancy of her execution.
Miss liners voice is well trained
and under good control as was shown
by her rendering of 30 Mic Fernando
by DOnizette and 1.-The Flower Girl
by Bevignani. The fiexlbility Of Miss
Hiner's voice is one of it's most pleas
ing qualities and in 1.-The Cradle Song
by Norris and Thine Eyes So Blue
and Tender" by Lassen, the modula
tions were finely controlled. One Of
the most enjoyable selections wal
"Whisper and 1 Shall Hear" by Pico
IOmiui; this called forth a clamOroui
encore to which Miss Hiner responded
much to the qualification of her au
dience.
Both OF these young ladies belong to
the graduating class of Valley Semi
nary. The class this year is cOmposeG
of thirteen bright young women. They
had their final exercises on Tues.
day, Goth, upon which occasion they
were addressed by DR.. Geo H. Denny
