PASSED BY SENATE
Upper House Breaks Its Rec
ord for the Ses-
sion

HC SSudlS passed twenty-five DIS
yesterday, breaking its record for the
session. The session was much like
that of Monday, characterized by lit
tie debate and frequent roll calls on
bills.
Two of these bills were introduced
yesterday and passed under suspension
OF the rules. They were submitted by
Senator Wilson, and they provide for
the editing, annOtating and publishing
OF the code, otherwise known as the
Revised Laws of 1905. Mark B. Dun
nell Of Owatonna is designated as the
editor, at salary of So 500. The sum
of $1,000 is appropriated for incidental
expenses. The bill provides that the
code is not to take effect until March
!, 1906

comprising the secretary of state, at
torney general and state printer, which
is authorized to make the contract for
printing and binding the code, which
may be retailed at a price not to ex-
coed So per volume. The copyright is
to remain the property of the state.
Both bills were passed under sus-
pension of the rules.

a. new method for nominating candi-
dates for the assembly in St. Paul was
Killed by the Ramsey county senate
delegation, on whose recommendation

ton for bills affecting Ramsey county
officials, If the governor signs two bills
recommended by the Ramsey delega-
ton. These bills affect the register of
deeds and clerk of courts, and provide

that Ramsey county has a population
in excess of 100000.
