The Democrat is eminently correct.

allow their opinions with reference to
the railroads to become biased on ac-

NO PRIMARY REFORM.
HOUSE KILLS ALL MEASURES TX,
TENDING PRINCIPLE TO STATE
NOMINATIONS.

Primary election reform in making
state nominations will not be accom-,
plished at this session. Five bills were
taken up in the house yesterday after
noon and killed, one by one. Each had
it's friends, but they could not unite on
any one measure.
A strong showing was made for the
bill by John G. Lund of Hennepin, ex-
tending the direct primary to state
Offices. It received 38 votes to 81
and no other bill made such a good
showing. 1t was opposed by practically
all the city members on account Of an
amend%ent Proposed by Gandr%d
primaries from September to June.
The bill by Burdett Thayer, changing
the date for the primary to June, and
providing for the election Of delegates
to the county convention at that
primary, was killed, 81 to 65. R. g.
Dunn, late republican candidate for
governor, was on the floor to urge the
passage Of this bill. The Rider bill

provided for selecting delegates to the
state convention from each county by

John F: selb and Ole Peterson,
authors Of the other bills up for con-
sideration, saw the handwriting on the
wall, and each moved for the in
definite postponement Of his own bill.
The selb bill provided fol. the instruc-
ton of delegates from each county &C
ty on candidates for state office. The
Peterson bill provided for the state
convention casting a single ballot, the
three candidates standing highest to 90
on the primary election ballot. This
bill is before the senate as commit
tee bill, but is not likely to pass that
body, and even. if it did the house
seems set against change. ....s -.

bills, the author OF each one defending

MAKES PLEA FOR
PARENTS RIGHTS
WINONA SENATOR SECURES RE-
CONSIDERATION OF BILL.
Objects to Authority Given a Bethel
Society to Dispose of Children Put
in Its Care-Says Personal Rights
Are Subserved to Property Rights.

By one Of the most eloquent pleas
made in the legislature this session,
Senator P. Fitzpatrick of Winona TO-
day secured reconsideration Of H. F.
166, by Representative Hugo of Duluth,
after the measure had been passed, and
had it again placed on general orders
for further consideration in committee
of the whole.
The bill provides for the adoption of
abandoned and dependent children com
ing into the custody of a Bethel society
maintaining a rescue home for unfor-
tunate women.
Senator Fitzpatrick explained that
on petition of the society, the probate
judge must summon witnesses and no
tify the county attorney to appear for
the society. No provision is made for
the mother to have legal aid. If the
court finds it case Of abandonment
it must turn the child over to the So
ciety for disposal or binding out, as it
pleases,s without consideration Of the
I'VE talk about 'inaienable
rights ," said Senator Fitzpatrick.
''What rights are more sacred than
those of parent to child? It's a
lamentable fact that we seem to be
drifting to a condition where property
alone has consideration of rights.
:'lf woman had horse, a poodle
dog, or q certificate Of deposit, not a
man Of this senate would dare to make
disposition of it. But when it comes
to disposing Of the rights Of parents,
1t seems to be different.
''There is law which says, thou
shalt honor thy father and thy mother.
| think we ought to go slow before we
try to repeal the Ten Commandments
or any one Of them.''
Senator Laybourn, in support of the
bill, said it was Endorsed by the hui
manitarians of Duluth for the advance
me1t OF the good work being done by
the Duluth Bethel society He failed
to stem the tide created by the Winona
senator s eloquence. The vote by which
it had passed was reconsidered and the
bill placed on general orders, 25 to 10.
More Talk on Primary Bill.
The bill of the elections committee,
s. F. 1868, providing that three candi-
dates for each state office shall be
nominated by party state conventions
and then submitted at primary cleo
ton for the people to select one from
each Of the three, came near death for
second time, but was once more res.
cued by 'the man behind the bill, -

the bill put a straight issue before the
senator's; did they want the people to
nominate state officers, or simply the re-
spective parties to do 500
Senator Calhoun replied: II believe
in the voice Of the people, but do not
believe in this bill. It is safer for us
to stand on a firmly tested rock where
we are, than to jump into an abyss of
theory" Senator Lord suggested that
progress be reported.
"What g the use of monkeying along
with it?' said Senator Calhoun.

"Mr. Chairman said Senator Lay

of the next candidate for governor,

ask that progress be reported.'' And
such action was then taken.
Third Fish Hatchery Attacked. W.

The Frater bill to locate third fish
hatchery in Crow Wing county, S. F.
81, came up in committee Of the whole.
Its author moved for recommendation
that the bill pass. Senator Thompson
objected. He said that two years ago
the legislature had created a second
hatchery. Two hatcheries would supply
all the fry needed. He did not believe
in creating third fish hatchery Just to
satisfy local demand for State in
stitution in Crow Wing county.
"The senator does not seem to be
CONSISTENT said Senator Wood. "If I
remember correctly, a few days ago
Senator Thompson advocated a rattle
snake bounty bill SO that rattlesnakes
in his neighborhood might be killed
off.
The senate then voted to refer the
bill to the finance committee, as it car

DULUTH MEN SIGN
Petition Against Demurrage Bill Get:
Business Mems SIGNATURES.

Leading shippers and receivers of car
load freight at Duluth today petitioned
the senate not to pass H. F. SO, the
Nolan reciprocal demurrage bill. The
petition was presented by Senator
George R. Laybourn Of Duluth, and
after being read, was referred to the
railroad committee, Of which another
Duluth member, Senator Hawkins, is
chairman.
The petitioners oppose the bill for the
following reasons:
/ HThe delay to cars while loading ex-
ceeds the delay incident to their trans
portation. Under present rules, the
great majority of carload freight is
loaded and unloaded within twenty-four
hours without unreasonable effort on
the part Of the shipper or consignee,
except at large terminals. The bill
makes forty eight hours the statutory
minimum, which would result in tieing
up for an additional twenty-four hours
large percentage Of the cars avail
able in times Of shortage, to the great
detriment Of shippers as a whole.

ate Committee-Other Committees.

The W. A. Nolan reciprocal demur-
was given; a hearing yesterday after
noon by the senate committee on rail-
roads. The author was on hand to an
swer objections. Judge A. e. Clark
of Minneapolis, representing the Mime
apolis & st. Louis and other, roads, op-
posed the bill. He also asked permits
sion to reply to all complaints when
for the Minnesota Shippers association.
He explained that shippers favored the
bill, first, because railroads have
charged demurrage on some commodi-
ties and have not charged it on others;
second, because cars are not always
placed on delivery tracks with reason
able promptness;, third, because the
which railroads receive credit at the
rate Of 81 per car for every car fur
nished twenty.four hours sooner than
the limit required in the bill and the
same credit is extended to shippers who
unload cars before the expiration of the
time limit, will enable shippers who re-
ceiye "bunched cars'' to apply the
credit accruing from unloading the first
cars in twenty-four hours to the cost
in unloading. the last cars. - ~.
