to the tonnage tax bill in the house,
as RESULT of the announcement that
the United States Steel corporation
has decided to establish an immense
steel plant in the city of Duluth.
The two-cent fare bill as passed,
provides a fat rate of cents per
mile for all distances as the maxi
mum rate, permitting the roads at
their discretion to make lower excur-
sion rates. For children under II
years, the rate is 1 cent per mile.
Each passenger is allowed $50 pounds
of baggage, except children under ~
who are allowed IS pounds of baggage
each. The penalty for violating the
act is made fine not to exceed
$4,000, or imprisonment not to exceed
five years. The vote on the bill in
the senate, was 4s to 4. In the house
the bill carried 1O5 to 4.

"AAN oSSOA LII A'4AAll1CSOCd. ". D. UllllSI,
the eloquent young member of the
house from ltlluth, acted as spokes..
man for the Zenith City interest. He
spoke for nearly an hour, and plead
against immediate heavy taxation of
an immense industry which had just
decided to move to Minnesota. He
stated that the erection of the plant
at Duluth would mean an expenditure
of at least $5,0oo,0oo to Sc, 900, 900, and
on it's start, as soon as ready for
operation, would employ some $1,000
people. The establishment of the
plant was dream of the past Years
at Duluth finally brought into reali-
cation. The establishment of the
tonnage tax, might reverse the
decision of the steel interests to
establish the plant in Minnesota.
Would the legislature thus threaten
the future of Duluth, even of Mimi

The legislature decided it would
not, even in spite of a number of
speeches on the other side of the
question, and killed the tonnage tax
bill, 81 for it, and So against it.

St. Paul, April 2-The legislature
did but two things today, but those
two are numbered among the most
important actions of the session. The
first was the acceptance of the report
of the conference committee appoin-

by the railroads of all difficulties be-
tween these corporations and the
state, and the passage of the two
cent per mile fare bill on adoption
of the recommendation that the offer
of the roads be rejected. The second
important action was striking death

St. Paul, April 3-Reciprocal de-
murrage is now up to the governor
for his signature. The house of
representatives this afternoon con-
Cured in the few amendments the
senate had made to the bill by vote
of 85 ayes, 2 nays. John G. Lennon
of Minneapolis explained that he
voted against the measure because he
believed that without being accom-
panied by stringent anti-rebate law,
it would be- an aid instead of detri-
ment to rebating. J. j. Opsahl of
Bemidji stated that since the amend
ment giving the school fund half the
penalties collected had been struck
out of the measure, he was no longer
in favor of it, and was the other men,
Der who voted against it.
The senate this afternoon had a
special order of the permanent tax
commission bills ubstituted by the tax
committee for one which had been
introduced by George P. Wilson of
Minneapolis. The measure was
finally passed by a vote of AZ to II
against. Strong arguments were
made in it's favor by Senators Wilson,
Sullivan, and others. Senator George
R. Laybourn offered an amendment
to cut down salaries of the three COM
missioners to So, 800 each, from S., 600
as in the bill. This failed, but another
amendment fixing the salaries at
$1,000, presented by Senator Wilson,
prevailed. One other amendment of
Importance which prevailed, gives the
commission all the powers formerly
had by the state board of equaliza-
ton.
The senate spent over an hour to-
day debating the Sundberg anti-cigar-
cite bill. The bill was strongly op-
posed by Senator harrington. He
called attention that it was not aimed
at aiding the youth of the state, but
that it prohibited men, one and all,
from being able to secure or use Gig
arettes in Minnesota. He did not be-
lieve in cigarettes, he opposed them
for boys particularly; but he did
think the bill was too much of an in
fringement on individual rights. Sem
ator Witherstine took the opposite
view.
''Two years ago." he said, II sent
communications to the superinten-
dents of the city schools, asking two
questions. How many boys in your
schools have failed to pass, and how
many of such boys are cigarette
fiends. The replies came that loo
failed, and that all of them used Gig
arettes.o
The senate finally turned down a
motion by harrington to indefinitely
postpone, and advanced the bill from
general orders to the calendar on mo-
ton of it's author, Senator Sundberg.
The house railroad committee met
in executive session this evening.
The Rockne bill, regulating stock and
bond issues of railroads and aimed at
controverting the recent decision of
the supreme court against the state
in the Great Northern $4,000, 600
stock issue case, came very near get
ting severe blow. The committee
almost unanimously voted to recon-
mend the bill for indefinite postpone
| ment, but reconsidered this action
and decided to have the bill referred
to the judiciary committee to look in
to it's constitutional state of health.
