COURT MAKES ENQUIRY.
QUITE 4 SENSATIONAL L HEARING
 YESTERDAY

Probing the Election-Hearing Had
 Behind Closed Doors---AuthOr of Cor
 rupt Practice Act in Evidence-The
 Use of Liquor on Election Day-The
 Tenth Ward Natter.
 The superior court chamber in the county building was all excitement yes- terday over the summoning to court of over dozen citizens, principally resi- dents of the Tenth senatorial district, as result of a petition of George L. Fox, author of the corrupt practices act, to the effect that certain irregulari- ties were committed on election day.
 It was hinted in the court building that this was the first result of the throwing out of drag net in that dis trict, and if there were violations of the corrupt practices act those guilty would be dealt with according to law.
 lAll newspaper men were excluded from yesterdays session which was before Judge Elmer as referee, and no une but those who had been subpoenaed were allowed at the hearing Each wit ness was heard privately and none was represented by counsel.
 George L. Fox was seen before the hearing began on the nature of the pro ceedlngs said: T am pledged to secre- cy; not word from me, sir"
 The vote for senator from the Tenth district was close and on a recount James N States was declared elected over Frank L. Homan by about 100 votes Alderman Homan claims that there was a mistake in the subtraction of figures and that he actually won the election by a few votes over 3O
 Mr. Fox on the day after election re- ported that certain saloons were not as tightly closed as the law required, and conducted an investigation which led to the hearing. Those summoned to the hearing were the following: MT Fox. the two senatorial candidates, Mr. Homan and Mir, States; James E. Me- Cam, democratic senat9r of two years ago; Henry w Sanford, chair man of the democratic town committee; Policemen Ledwith, Egan and Tier nan, who were on duty at the polls in the Third ward Saloonkeepers Malone and Fitzgerald; Bernard Higgins and J.hn Stamford, bartenders; Eugene B.. McGann, also a saloonkeeper, and Town Clerk Frederick D. Whitaker.
 State Attorney Williams conducted the inquiry and refused to discuss it. The hearing will be continued to-day, and runor says it may hinge on ques- tion something in the line of who paid for the drinks if any were served on election day in the Tenth district.

4 RAILROAD COMMISSION THAT
Does THINGS.

For over twenty-five years the state
of Texas has been trying to regulate
| railroads. The agitation has not pre-
vented the wonderful development in
o ,pulation and resources of the giant
G. m .onwealtl f the Southwest. The
fatcer of the Interstate Commerc
| act, John 81. Reagan. was q Texan
There is q railroad commission in
| Texas, and extracts from an article
BY writer in the Worlds Work,
will be refreshing to Minnesotans,
who almost despair of their present
IL load commission.
Answering the charge that develop
n ent Of the state is checked by re-.
strictions on railroads, the writer
say:
''Some say it checks development
It does Railroad building does not
advance IS fast in Texas as the state s
resources would permit, if long,
speculative chances were taken; but,
at tie same time, it advances faster
than anywhere else in the country. y
some parts of Minnesota have more
railroads than is needed Others
none, or not enough. Texas has found
remedy. Then the writer says:
Meanwhile the commission holds
the balance true between the railroads
and the people. Sometimes manu-
facturers cannot get what they de-.
mand Sometimes the cattlemen can.
not. Sometimes the railroads cannot.
But the commission will hear any
complaint and decide promptly. The
courts may not review its decie ions.
1t is despotic, final, exemplary
The nub of the ABOVE paragraph is
IN the last two sentences. Then We
are told that the commission decides
promptly. Whatever tho grievance,
it Is at once disposed of.
Now read the following and wonder
how refreshing it would seem to see
such thing happen in Minnesota:
The people of C,rsicana com.
planned that certain train left the
town habitually from half an hour to
two hours late. The railroad was Or
dered to start the train on time. 1t
demurred that 1t had to wait for an
other train carrying United States
mails. Start your train on rime,'
said the commission. The railroad
started it on time The people of
the town demanded better railroad
station. Build it, said the commits
sion. The railroads submitted plans
for station to cost about Is, 600
Not good enough reported the CON-
mission. Forty thousand dollar plans
were Submitted. Not good enough,
was the report. The feeling of the
railroad officers may be Imagined
when they next submitted plans for a
$75, 900 station. That will do vely
WE'LL, said the commission; build
that. It was built
Jusice is done to all, shippers as
well as railroads. Note this:
'"No interest is q ute satisfied.
No interest secures everything it
wishes. All interests, from the
railroads to the consumers, admit
that they are getting square DEAL
That is Texas. Why not Minnesota
Senators Bailey and Culberson re.
presenting Texas, are listened to with
aspect. No wonder. Texas does
Kings.

Hogg of Texas, who recently died
was good and great man. The
paragraphers had much fun with his
name, but the people Of the Lone Star
torney general and four years as gov
ernor, he instituted many necessary
reforms. He was q strong believer
IN tree culture and asked his children
to plant a walnut tree at the head
of his grave, and pecan tree at the
foot, and when they matured that
the nuts be given away to those who
would plant them. In many ways
such a monument would be expressive
OF the practical life of the great
Texan.

LADIES' ALL-OVER APRON,
Every Woman Should Have at Least
One Of These Garments in

An apron that is wide and full enough

able to the woman who is engaged in
any work that is disastrous to a pretty
gown, says the Farm and Home Journal.
The one here shown closes in the back,
and is shaped by under-arm and Shout.

A RHYME Luncheon.

"A d0yme Au0cQo00s
A luncheon, at which the guests were
to determine the menu by the written
rhymes contained in Z little flower
decorated booklet, was q great sue
cess. These few specimens will show
hostess how she can evolve more
"doggerer to suit the articles she may
desire to serve For instance, "clam
bouillon" was represented by these
touching lines:
I'm hard to get,
For love the wet
I'm conservative, men say.
But now I'm caught,
And hither brought,
I start the meal to-day.
Olives were announced thus:
I'm green when I'm ripe and grow on
tree,
A favorite fruit of the Spanish grandee.
Chicken on toast was heralded in
this manner:
I'm neither a bird, nor beast, nor a fish.
Yet when I'm fried I'm a very good dish;
And when I'm young and covered with
down,
I'm fresh in the country, but seldom in
town.
Ice cream was served in tulip flower
cases, hence the following:
Although cold by nature,
I'm favored by all,
And there's scarcely luncheon,
Or dinner, or ball
At which I'm not present.
And I'm happy to say
There is no place in town.
Where I've not the entree.
