s The task of Count Witte in provid-
ing a constitutional government for
Russia is one Of great magnitude, and
the difficulties in his way are greater
than appear to the average Individual.
To prepare a people who have never
participated in constitutional govern.
ment and whose whole heredity has
been one of oppression and ignorance
to take part in a scheme OF government
which provides suffrage, is not an
easy one. Nevertheless 1t is believed
that Witte is big enough and strong
enough for the task unless the ex-
tremists in Russia force a revolution
before the new machinery can be put
/ in operation. i

~ Governor Johnson OF Minnesota has
hxed the date for the execution OF
Crawford, another box-car murderer,
for December 5, and very wisely mott
fies the sheriff that no witnesses viii
be permitted aside from those pre-
scribed by the law. At previous ex-
ecutions In Minnesota the law has
been violated in permitting numerous
unauthorized persons to be witnesses.
Governor Johnson is to be commended
for his determination that hereafter
executions shall be witnessed only by
those whom the law specifies.

A number of the states in the Union
are considering the following of North
Dakota's example in the holding of all
executions at the state penitentiaries
d At the recent meeting of the annual
Prison Congress at Lincoln, Nebrask4,
which was attended by Warden Bouch-
er of North Dakota, the subject was
under general discussion and Mr..
Boucher was quizzed by his fellow
wardens as to the success of the North
Dakota plan and it's effect upon the
population of the penitentiary institu-
ton. A number of the wardens were
of the opinion that their representative
states would in the near future enact
a law similar to that now in effect in
North Dakota While in one or two
states In which the law is now in
force, the wardens who have its opera
ton in charge stated that they be-
ieved the execution of a prisoner had
little if any effect upon the prison
population, Warden Boucher believes
that it had disciplinary effect in that
it brings to the serious attention of
the prisoners the solemn fact OF what
may happen as apenalty for the viola
ton of the law against murder. While,
of course, preparations for an execu-
ton are kept as far as possible from
the observation of the prisoners and
they see none of the more grewsome
details, they know that preparations
are in progress and know after that
that an execution has taken place, and
this knowledge is more than likely to
make them seriously thoughtful of
what may come as a penalty for
rong-doing.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.
Robertson Lumber Co. vs. Bank.

4 r ~
Robertson Lumber Co. We. Bank.
The Robertson Lumber Co, respond
ent, VS.. State Bank of Edinburg, APP
lpellant. Action was commenced in
Walsh county, Judge G. ]. Fisk, sitting
by request, H. a. Libby appearing for
appellant, and Skusason & Skulason
for respondent q
The complaint alleges the following
facts: That in May, 1900, o. A.
Braseth & Co., contractors, entered in
to a contract with the State Bank Of
Edinburg, by which that firm agreed
to furnish I'll the materials for and to
erect certain two story bank building
for the defendant bank for $2,91S.
The lumber and some Of the material
used in the building were purchased
from the Robertson Lumber Co., the
plaintiff, and were of the value of
$631.72; and that the defendant "dur-
ing all of said time aa* - knew,
was appraised of and had full knowl-
edge of the fact that the plaintiff . :
was furnishing the lumber and other
building materials to the said Braseth
& Co. for use in and about
the construction of the said defend
ants said building" that Braseth &
Go. did not pay said sum to the plain
tiff nor has the defendant paid said
sum; that on December Is, 1902, the
plaintiff filed a claim for mechanics
lien against the building. The plain.
tif demands foreclosure of its lien
and sale to satisfy the lien. The de-
PENDANT demurred to the complaint up-
on the ground that it did not state
facts sufficient to constitute a cause of
action. The demurrer was over-ruled,
and the case comes up on appeal from
such ruling. The defendant advances
two grounds for its demurrer. First:
That the complaint failed to show that
the defendant owes Braseth & Co. any
money by virtue of the contract. and
second that the notice alleged to have
been given to the defendant of the
furnishing of the materials for the
building is not properly pleaded.
The syllabus Of the opinion, written
by Chief Justice Morgan and affirming
the order of the district court. is as
follows:
1. Subcontractors are entitled to
direct lien for work done or materials
furnished under contracts between con-
tractors and the owner of the land or
building, under section 47SS, Revised
Codes.
2. A claim for a lien by subcon-
tractor must be filed within ninety
days after the materials are furnished
or the work done, and unless filed
within said time, the lien is defeated
as against purchasers and incum-
brancers in good faith acquiring rights
to the property after said time and
before lien is filed.
8. If the claim or demand for lien
be not filed within ninety days but is
filed after said time the lien is not de-
feated as against the oner except as
to payments made after ninety days
and before the claim or demand for a
lien is filed.
4 A complaint setting forth all the
facts necessary to create lien, states

It is of considerable interest to know
that in the New York City election the
feeling against the republican and
democratic machines and against a
good many Of the leaders of high
finance because Of the life insurance
scandal, has reached a point where
there is q feeling among the conserva-
tives for the election of William R.
Hearst for mayor. At any rate it is
admitted that Heart will receive a
tremendously large vote from the army
OF discontinued people who are apt to
ascribe their condition to the ma
chinations of the political machines
and the leaders of finance It will be
OF much interest to see how far this
wave Of indignation will carry Hearst
towards the mayors chair.

cause of action, although it contains
no allegation that there is anything
due the contractor from the owner.
5. The fact of payment being an
affirmative defense is a matter to be
alleged in the answer and need not be
negatived by an allegation in the com
lplaint
6. An allegation of a complaint
chat prior to the filing of said lien
the plaintiff had notified defendant by
Registered letter that 1T had furnished
said materials to the said = :
company" is not the statement of a
conclusion and is sufficient as an allie
cation of notice.

pellant. Appeal from the district court
OF Cass county, Ball, Watson & McClay
appearing for the appellant, and Bar
nett 4& Richardson appearing for
respondent, Charles A. Pollock, judge.
Plaintiff recovered Judgment in JUS
tice court for the negligent killing Of
some cattle by the defendant. The
original complaint averred that the
cattle were run over and killed by
reason of the defendants carelessness
in the operation of its train. Before
trial and before defendant had fled
any answer, the plaintiff was permitted
to amend the complaint SO as to allege
that the negligence which caused the
injury complained of was the fact that
the defendant had neglected its statu-
tory duty to keep in repair a fence
erected by 1t on the lien between
plaintiffs pasture and the railroad
right of way. The defendant objected
to the allowance of the amendment on
the ground that the matter stated
therein was departure from the
original cause Of action and constituted
a wholly new and different cause Of
action which the defendant was not
prepared to meet. The objection was
overruled and defendant declined to
answer and would stand on the objec-
ton raised. The justice heard the tes-
timony and rendered judgment in
plaintiffs favor. Defendant appealed
to the district court, which affirmed
the Justices judgment and defendant
thereupon appealed to the supreme
court.
Justice Engerud writes the opinion,
the syllabus of which is as follows:
!. The general rule governing the
exercise Of the discretionary power Of
the court with respect to allowing
amendments to pleadings are the same
IN justice court as In district court.
2. It was not error in justice court
to allow complaint which alleged that
plaintiffs cattle had been killed by the
negligent running of defendants train.
4 TO be amended before trial SO as to
allege that the injury was die to the
failure OF the defendant to keep its
right Of way fence in repair.

it's force was such as to prevent the
passage of the bill, which was finally
referred to the appropriations commit
tee, but only after a motion for it's
feated by close vote. The point made
by Davis was that the bill provided
for the supplying of Bibles, but con-
tanned nothing more specific on the
subject. Some people have big BIZ
bles, some have small, and some get
along without any at all,'' said the
senator. Now this bill says that
convict shall have a Bible if he wants
one, but it does not say what kind of
one he shall have. There are 700 men
in that penitentiary and if they should
select an SIS or $40 book, 1 submit
that the total would be a pretty large
item and one that we cannot afford
to overlook
Senator Graves declared che bill
unconstitutional as it provided an Off
cial at the prison VINO was not under
the direct supervision of the warden.
He was convinced that the measure
would make the chaplain an independ-
ent authority which the senator be-
ieved would not prove conducive to
good discipline.
Senator Brown also opposed the bill
basing his objection on the ground
that a UNCONVENTIONAL controversy
would be sure to arise from the ap
pointment of any chaplain. He said
that the clergy of Walla Walla gave
the convicts all the religious instruc-
ton desired and that the introduction
of one preached among men of every
creed would result in discomfort
The people of the state showed by
their vote at the last election that
they were not interested in having a
chaplain at the prison. he declared.
This movement originated in one of
the spasmodic efforts at reform and
is not worthy serious consideration"
Senator Stewart failed to see the
need of chaplain, but Senator Ruth,
| who has hitherto opposed the measure,
came out as a pronounced advocate.
