ONE VOTE AGAINST IT
w. A. NOLAN'S RECIPROCAL DE.
MURRAGE BILL is PASSED
BY THE HOUSE,.
MEASURE WILL NOT GO INTO Eff.
Feet UNTIL THE FIRST DAY
OF. NEXT. JULY.

st. Paul, Feb. 21.-The reciprocal
! demurrage bill, introduced by w. A.
Nolan of Grand Meadow, passed the
house after consideration as a special
, order. The bill adopted, with few
small amendments, in the redrafted
bill presented to the house by the
special committee appointed for that
purpose. AS the bill stands it is con-
s1derably different from the bill which
passed the house two years ago.
The house passed the bill with prac-
tfcally no discussion on the principle
of the bill, but spent some time in con-
sidering a batch of amendments pro-
! posed by Ambrose Tighe of St. Paul.
When the vote was taken T. J.. Brady
absentees were Handlan, HOLSTER,
Orne, Thompson and Young. All the
others voted in the affirmative
An amendment by Mr.. TigEe was
adopted changing the time when the
bill goes into effect from the time Of
its passage to July 1, 1907.
An amendment was offered by Mr.
! Tighe providing that half Of the
money should be paid to the school
district at the station where cars were
ordered instead Of the district where
the shipper resides. This was adopt
ed.
A provision proposed by Mr.. Tighe
was inserted that when a receiver
fails to begin unloading the car with
in forty-eight hours the company may
either remove the car and collect
a day or else unload the car at the
shippers expense.

TOO FAR FROM THE BoWERY.
New Yorker Would Not Build House

New Yorker Would Not Build House
in Canadian Woods.
He was such typical New Yorker
that he seemed strangely out OF place
in the queer little lumber village way
up in the Canadian woods where his
duties as a lumber inspector called
him. And his talk, which was ever OF
"the ponies" and the race track
seemed even more homogeneous in a
place where the white men talked OF
"shorts" and "outs, two by tWelves"
and "silos" and all the rest of the
iargon of lumber mill. One day the
superintendent of the plant, who had
taken a great fancy to the young New
Yorker, and who apparently loved to
listen to the inspectors stories OF how
he "won three hundred on Roseben
and other profitable operations against
the ring, told him he ought to invest
some of his winnings in a piece or
land near the mill build a cottage and
bring his family up there for the sum-
mer. The New Yorker looked at him
IN silence for a minute Then he eject
ed a long stream of tobacco juice and
calculated slowly, What, build
house here! Say, when | build cot
tage it'll be at Coney and it won't be
far from the track. That's as straight
a tip as you'll ever get
