Saloon Keeper Always Seeks to Get

A lOng-headed saloon keeper always
places his saloon between a factory

day Of small things in the legisla-
t're. This was especially demon
strated in the senate by the spending
of nearly an hour on debate of the
merits and dement's of a bill calling
for the muzzling of all dogs and the
killing of dogs running at large I'M
rnuzzled. Senator Q. A. Johnson
offered an amendment exempting
useful dogs" from provisions of the
bill. Senator harrington went so far
as to remark he could ''never look
his dog in the face when he went
home if he voted for that bill.'' SEN
ator Frank Clague pronounced the
bill "a measure to permit the COM
hitting of murder.' Senator Julius
Collier and others thought all wan
dering CANNES should be shot on
sight, but the pathetic stories had
their effect and the johnson amend
ment was first voted down and then
the bill killed, Al against, 20 for it.
The incident was amusing in view of
the fact that the senators were really
in earnest in their remarks.
The Standard Oil company came in
for shots in both senate and house to-
day. Senator Hinton introduced a
bill prohibiting determinations in
trade or contracts between different
sections of the state by the same trade
interests. The bill, evidently an anti
oil combine bill, went to the commit
tee on Illuminating oils. Thomas
Brady introduced resolution in the
house which calls for a special invest
igation to see whether the Standard
Oil company controls the oil market
in Minnesota. o. F. Christensen of
St. Paul catered to 'tyellow'' story
in a St. Paul paper alleging that cruel
ties are practiced at the St. Peter
hospital, by introducing resolution
calling for an investigation of the
institution. James s. Spencer of the
committee an hospitals, said he knew
about the alleged case and that in
truth the institution is all right. J. H
Dorsey characterized the story as "a
lurid article from the mind of a fool
reporter.' The resolution went over
for the day on notice of debate. But
few bills of Importance were intro
duced today. One by Senator E. s..
Durment permits cities of over $4,000
inhabitants to levy taxes for auditor
iums and appoint auditorium boards.
Senator Witherstine presented a
measure to impose a three per cent
gross earnings tax on telephone com
panies. Senators Hall and Donaldson
father a measure jointly to appropriate
$50, 900 to enlarge Buffalo Creek for
drainage of swamp lands mostly in
Sibley and adjoining counties.
In the house bill by Dalzen aims
at preventing purchasing of supplies
by the board of control outside the
state. The objection to this measure
is, it permits of combination of Min
nesota jobbers on prices.

MINNESOTA 'LEclSL ATURE

st. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 27-These are
days when committees are sprinpinp
into Importance in the legisla ture and
doing more interesting work, some
times, than is accomplished through
the routine grind Of the sessions. The
special committee which is investi-
eating ore lands and taxation has
hurried lot of officers of the law to
Duluth armed with subpoenas for
men prominent in mining operations
in northern Minnesota. The commit
tee recently returned from iunket
over the range, on which trip they
were feted and banqueted. Now that
they have had Their fun, the commit
teemen are going to settle down to
real business and make a thorough
investigation. Rumor goes that the
committee is after evidence to show
that the $40, 900, 900 at which ST. Louis
county mines are assessed, isSnot a
drop in the bucket compared with
their real value.
The so-called Knutson committee,
which is investigating the J. J. Hill
ore land deal, has demanded that
Louis w. Hill, son of the magnate,
produce all the books and records Of
the Superior company which holds
the lands at present for the Great
Northern stockholders. There is an
opinion around that the records will
not be produced.
An interesting bill which put in an
appearance today in the senate, was
by Senator J. T. Ellwell of Minnea-
polls. 1t is bill to appropriate
$12, 800 the next fiscal year and $25, 900
the following year for maintenance of
new clinical hospital to be built and
established at the state university by
donation and free of expense to the
state. Walter J. Trask of Los An
geles gives $4,000 for the building as
a memorial to DR.. Adolphus F. Elliott
and Mary H. Elliott, his wife. The
institution will be known as the FL
lott Memorial hospital. In addition,
the alumni of the university have
raised a fund of $4,000 for the pur-
chase of a site for the building.
Senator Seward is author of a bill
to appropriate $1,000 from Farmers
Institute funds, for experiments in
destroying weeds, breeding cattle,
raising poultry, etc., on the Coteau

St. Paul, Mimi, March IA bill to
prohibit the bringing of labor into the

by Senator harrington. The bill pro-
hibits under penalty of fine Of 1900

engaging in any way of labor under
false pretenses, making a special pro-
vision that securing men for strike-
breaking shall be considered misrep-

bate today when in committee of the
whole on the merits of the Glotzbach
bill to compel the attendance at the
state school for deaf of deaf children
when years of age. E. s. Durment
of St. Paul offered an amendment
which was not adopted to not make
such education compulsory till the
children are ten years of age. 1t was
finally recommended to pass, after a
minor amendment had been attached
by P. Fitzpatrick, requiring that deaf
children be instructed along the lines
of study followed in the public schools
of the state.
The house today "sat down. on
the Christensen resolution demanding

ment of county schools for instruction
in agriculture, domestic science,
manual training, and in normal in
struction for teachers, by county
boards of education. The state is to
furnish two thirds of the cost of
maintaining such schools. A bill by
Senator eastman aims at calling a
turn on troublesome meters. It per-
mits of cities or villages to appoint
inspectors of gas, electric light, and
water meters.
In the house, John Dalzell intro
duced two bills of interest. One is to
compel sleeping car companies to fur
nish safe receptacles for the keeping
of valuables of travellers. The second
bill prohibits the giving Or receiving
