GOVERNOR IS ANNOYED
NORTHERN MINNESOTA SPORTS
DISREGARD HIS ORDER AND
HOLD PRIZE FIGHT.

Governor Johnson was surprised, as
well as annoyed, today to find that
crowd Of northern Minnesota sports had
disregarded his express orders against
prize fight at Brainerd, by pulling the
match off at Pillager, in the next coun-
ty. The mill was between Ed Larue of
Minneapolis and Billy Rhodes Of Kan
sas City, and was originally scheduled
for Brainerd. Governor johnson wired
Sheriff Erickson to stop the fight or ar
rest the principals and hackers.
The crowd moved to Pillager, small
town Just across the line in Cass county.
Sports from Little Falls, Staples and
Aitkin were notified and in short time
there was big crowd in the little town.
Word was sent the governor, who at
once ordered Sheriff Hardy Of Cass to
stop the fight. The town is so situated,
however, that there is no direct com.
munication with the county seat and
the country about is SO swampy that it
is impossible to make any sort Of time
with team.
The governor said today: ct did
everything in the power Of this office to
prevent the fight. The punishment of
the offenders is in the hands of the
county officials. In my message to the
sheriff Of Cass county / asked him to
use every means to apprehend and pun
ish the men responsible -
It is said that several twin city men
interested in the two fighters were back
Of the scheme.

PERLEY BILL SAID TO HAVE
GOOD PROSPECT IN SENATE
SENATOR PEACHEY GIVES UP.

Friends of the Perley bill, which
passed the house. yesterday, removing
the university and normal schools from
the board Of control, have counted
noses in the senate, and declared today
that they had assurance Of the bills
passage there. They say they have
pledges from two or three more than
the necessary majority.
Senator Peachey Of Owatonna will
not attempt to amend the bill, It has
been feared by friends Of the bill that
an attempt to include the Owatonna
state school under it's provisions would
be made by Senator Peachey and that
such amendment would kill the bill.
81 have no desire to kill the Perley
bill,'' said Senator Peachey to 7 g
urnal, "tho I would like to have
the Owatonna school included under it.
Yet it has been demonstrated to my
satisfaction that the senate is opposed
to my proposition. And for this rea.
son and to promote harmony, l shall not
shall vote for it.

bill and pass it.
DR.. Dorsey rose to question Of per-
sonal privileges He stated that Sena-
tor Gjertsen had been pulling members
from their seats and lobbying on the
floor Of the house for his bill.

from the privileges Of the foor," the
Glencoe man said, eff I see any more
of this kind Of work. Senatorial cour.

Amendment Limiting Loans to One In
dividual to 20 Per Cent Carries, After
Which Friends of the Bill Helped
Kill It-Lost by Two Votes.

The senate banking committee bill
for the regulation Of private banks was
killed in the senate today as the result
Of an amendment by Senator Collier Of
Shakopee. <.. q.
The bill came up on general orders.
Senator McGill offered an amendment
for the benefit of private banks in Ham
from necessary increase in capital banks
of $4,000 capital which have been in
business one year. This amendment was
overwhelmingly voted down on the
ground that it would nullify the bill,
and on Senator Lord 8 remark that it
would make it unconstitutional.
Senator Collier then offered the fatal
amendment, to prohibit private banks
from loaning over Is per cent of their
Senator Collier said this amendment
was needed. He said:
"The only safeguard to the people Of
this state on private banks is to limit
the loans to one party. If this bill is
passed unamended it makes the private
bank system for tho people worse than
before, for they understand the old sys-
tenn, and they would have to learn the
new new without its danger known to
Senator Somerville said If the Collier
well be killed. g.
Senator Eberhart said he thought the
senator from Brown county about right.
Nearly all private bank failures, he
said, came from excessive loans to
single parties.
Senator Thompson said he thought
speakers on both sides were "cranky,'
and that satisfactory compromise
could be reached. On vote, the Collier
amendment prevailed, IL against, "a in
favor of it.
Senator Thorpe moved the bill be
recommended to pass. Senator Somer-
vile moved a substitute motion for in
definite postponement. The substitute
motion prevailed, FL against, 23 for the
motion.
The Cowan bill to change the name of
Pine county to Glover county passed,
80 to l. Senator Durant alone voted
no. He thought sentimentality not
sufficient reason for changing the name
Of a. county. "Let Senator Cowan
Pine awhile" he said.
"The only objection I see to the en-
actment Of the bill,' said Senator Will
son, is that Senator Cowan will then
be in Glover all the time.''
Immediately following the passage of
the Cowan bill, resolution was intro
duced by Senator Shell as follows:
I" Resolved, That the name Of St
Louis county be changed to Alfalfa
But it failed of adoption.

and river beds for mineral purposes,

H. Johnson's amendment fixing the

With these amendments, the Duluth
