HEARING GIVEN
ON DRAWBACKS
THORPE RESOLUTION REFERRED
TO COMMITTEE.
After Sharp Tilt on the Floor, Senator
Thorpe Agrees to Request Of Sena-
tors Wilson and Calhoun Of Mime
apolis Hearings Will Begin Tomor-
row Afternoon.

Senator Thorpe's memorial to con-
gress asking for legislation to offset
the = drawback regulations for Cana
dian wheat was referred to the commit
ing, after a sharp tilt between it's au-
thor and Senators Wilson and Calhoun
of Minneapolis. Senator Thorpe is
chairman of the committee, which will
hold public hearing.
When Senator Thorpe called up the
resolution, Senator Calhoun moved it's
refernece. Senator Thorpe protested.
He declared that the ruling was solely
in the interests Of the Minneapolis mill
ers, and its effect was to give them a
profit they were not entitled to, at the
expense Of the farmers. He believed
the time was ripe for a protest. on
behalf of the farmers. He read from
an editorial in T he urnal Of Feb.
6, on the mixing privilege, and took is
sue with it's statements.
Senator Calhoun said there seemed to
be an impression that Minneapolis was
| hostile to the interests of the farmers OF
| Minnesota. This was far from true.
There is no wall around the city,. to
prevent it's people from seeing outside.
bound up in the interests of the farm.
ers. He believed that he himself was
as much Of farmer as Senator Thorpe
! The farmers and others interested
should at least have chance to be
! heard.
Senator Wilson declared that Mr.,
Thorpe's arguments did not apply to
the mixing privilege. He took issue
with the statement that the attorney
general IS ruling had caused the price
Of wheat to decline. The resolution
could have no effect whatever, ano
there could be no harm in giving the
. subject fair hearing.
Senator Stephens Of Crookston de
clared that the farmers did not need
any hearing. There was no mistake
about what they wanted. They were
opposed to the drawback in every form
Senator Collester Of Waseca said he
was not sufficiently informed to vote
on the resolution, and if pressed to 9
vote now, he would have, to vote against
it for that reason. He believed others
were in the same frame Of mind.
This was strong hint for Senator
| Thorpe, who at once consented to the
reference. It is expected that the at
titude of the millers will be fully ex
planned at the hearings. A meeting Of
the committee has been called for
pm. Thursday. -. ..-o.,f

To Investigate Oil Inspection.
John L. Oleson of North Branch
moved an investigation of the present
system of inspecting Illuminating OILS.
His resolution authorizes the commit
tee on Illuminating oils to seek answers
to the following questions: -.
Are the present laws obsolete?
hIs gasolene extracted from kerosene in
larger quantities than before. and does
this result in the poorer quality of kero-
y sene?
,8Should not the gravity test be used, and
oils failing to stand the test, be con-
demned as unstable? fI~.
\ Would the efficiency of the inspection
be improved by placing the same under
the dairy and food Department. so chem
ical tests may be made?
What has been the net relative cost OF
the inspection under the fee and salary
system, and has the substitution of the
salary system produced better results?
Have all the fees collected in the pas,
been reported to the state?
Mr.. Oleson was prompted by numer
Gus complaints of the general 1neffect
iveness of the present system to IN
sure even fair quality Of kerosene OF
,gasolene. r.

Of Legislative Inquiry.

The legislative investigation Of rail
road rates has borne fruit already. The
duction in it's freight tariffs from points
in Minnesota to points on the Duluth
Short Line between Minneapolis and
Carlton. The investigation brought out
the fact that joint rates to these points

this was an oversight, and the reduction
announced today makes the short haul
rates the same as or less than the rate

Rates from Iowa points were not
changed, as they are interstate business

MINNESOTA vs.. CANADA.

MINNESOTA vs.. CANADA.
State Auditor Iverson states that of

through st. Paul fully 80 per cent are
bound for Canada.
If this is true, and We believe 1t is,
something 10 radically wrong and the
remedy should be sought for diligent.
~ and applied as quickly a. possible.
1t seems incredible that these people
shoald pass through the state which
offers them the best opportunity to be
found in the world. Canada mas no
greater attractions, and besides Is an
alien land. Nor would they pass Min
neeota If they were not ,ieaaHant Of
the advantages which the Norh Star
state has to offer.
The secret of the seeming mystery
is to be found in the fact that Can.
ada advertises. Hundreds of thou.
sands of dolla1s snnualv are spent by
the Dominion government to-at-
tract new settlers.
Until this year Minnesota has not
been spending ceht in that way.
The last Legislature appropriated an
insienidoant sum for the purpose Of
advertising state lands, and the state
auditor Is doubtless doing tho beat he
can to bring results. but the mite ct
