Frank M. Nye of Minneapolis and
q ,dge ]. NJ. Martin of Virginia, Mimi.
o-day exchanged places as counsel
for DR.. A. A. Ames, to be tried for
the second time on the charge or ac-
Ecepting bribe. Mr.. Martin an
nounced as his associate counsel Il. X.
Odell and Fred II. Ayers of Mime
apolis and G. S. Cary of st. Paul
In announcing his withdrawal from
the case Mr.. Nye stated that he hoped
all of the rights which he had re-
served for the defendant would be
granted to Judge Martin, and re-
quested that an additional twenty
four hours be given the attorney in
which to familiarize himself with the
record and the facts.
# Judge Martin then addressed the
court, stated that he had volunteered
to act as counsel in the place or Mr..
Nye, who had performed such efficient
services up to this time, that he
, wished to interpose plea of former
kjeopardy and with the courts permis-

DR.. Ames was in court and looked
hale. hearty and unCOnCerned.
Will Brother Fred Talk?
Will Fred Ames testify against ex-
Mayor Ames, his brother?
q There is no doubt that the state
earnestly desires to have Colonel
,tAmes testify, and representations are
being made by friends to the man now
In Saltwater to the effect that his
silence Is injuring his own case before
the board of pardons. Furthermore
he has been shown that the former
mayor has been very cool towards al
efforts made in his, Fred's behalf fol
pardon, and. in fact, did not put him

Wednesday morning. ,..,.. -,
Out of a total OF $50 accredited

subjects to be discussed are the fol-
lowing:
What can the church do on the

to solve the race question?
Shall worldly pleasures, such as
dancing, theatergoing and card play

With which combatant in the war IN
the Orient are our sympathies?
What can be done by the church

country, the crime of lynching?
Shall the itineraries Of Methodist
ministers be restored?
How many bishops shall be elected
and how many be retired?

Washington, May 2.-There was an

The gentlemen have declined to dis

night the impression got out that the
president had called those influential
republicans together on the matter of

| It develops, however, that the pros

Special to The Journal
Mitchell, S. D., May 2.-Copies Of a
secret circular are being covertly
shown here to-day proposing that the
old-line democrats Of South Dakota
hold boiling convention to elect del
egates to st. Louis.
It is their belief that if the st. Louis
convention is controlled by the Hill
element their, delegation will be recog-
nized on the ground that there Is no
authentic democratic organization in
South Dakota. and that the recent
convention at Sioux Falls was made up
Of populists, socialists and sorehead
republicans, who had no right to rep
resent the democrats Of the state.
1t is purposed to hold this second
convention some time this month, but
the time and place have not been def
initely settled upon. The greatest Sc

This feature among the better class OF
drivers. ~
There is no question that the deci-
sion Of the Illinois court is long step
forward, and a great thing generally
for automobilists. Still Minneapolis
is not particularly interested. We
feel that we have a, most liberal law,
and there is no tendency to kick about
some absurdities in the present stat
ute, but on the whole the automobile
lists Of the state feel that they have
been pretty well treated. Even If the
law was burdensome there is no guar
antee that the Minnesota courts would
hold the same way as those of Illinois
in a test case"
The decision Of the Illinois courts
follows:
In the case at bar, the right OF the
appellee (the automobilist) to use the
streets is undoubted. 1t Is true that he
must use them without interfering with
the safety Of others in the exercise of the
same right. Subject to that Limitation.
his right cannot be regulated by ordinance.
The fact that an automobile is a COM
paratively new vehicle is beside the ques-
ton. The use Of the streets must be ex-
tended to meet the modern means of loco
notion The speed of the automobile may
be regulated, and reasonable safety ap-
planes, such as gongs and brakes, may
be required; but to compel one who uses
his automobile for his private business and
pleasure only to submit to an examination
and to take out license (f the examin-
ing board see fit to grant it) is imposing
a burden upon one class Of citizens in the
use of the streets not imposed upon 9th
ers.
We must therefore hold this ordinance,
SO far as it obliges appellee to take out a
license before ne can use his own auto
mobile in his own business or for his own
pleasure, is beyond the power Of the city
council, and is therefore void.

AUTO OWNERS
ARE SATISFIED
NO DISPOSITION TO KICK ABOUT
LAW IN MINNESOTA.
Local Drivers Feel That They Have
Been Pretty Well Treated by the
observation-disclosures of Illinois
Supreme Court Not of Direct In
terest.

Minneapolis automobile owners are
not directly interested in the decision
of the Illinois supreme court, appellate
division, handed down recently. The
Illinois court holds that the license
system now in vogue in Chicago is
void. BY this system every man who
wishes to drive an auto must undergo
an examination before the engineer
ing board Of the city before he is
granted permission to use his ma
chine. Sewall D. Andrews, one of the
most prominent automobiles in the
city, said to-day:
THE license system in Chicago has
degenerated into a species of political
graft. In Minneapolis, however, the
license system is no burden upon the
automobiles. Any one who pays his
dollar can procure the license, and the
provision by which the number of the
license must be carried upon the ma
chine undoubtedly does lot of good
in restraining careless drivers. There
is no disposition to complain about
