TO BE COMBINED
LEGISLATIVE ACTS WILL NOT BE
ISSUED SEPARATELY.
Conflict ON Contract Point Settled BY
Governor Conner When the
Matter Ia Put Up

Conflict on Contract Point Settled BY
Governor Conner When the
Matter La Put Up
To Him.
When the time arrived yesterday for
the binding of the Acts of the spe-
cial session of the Legislature. a con-
fiict arose. which was put up TO the
Governor for settlement.
A contract had been made with the
binders, before the extra session. for
binding 1000 copies of the Acts of the
Legislature; 5000 of the General Acts
and 1000 of the Local Acts. During
the last session. however. a bill was
passed, providing that $500 copies be
printed of the Local and General Acts
combined.
The two agreements conhicted. The
publisher called to see Attorney Gen
eral CARRIER about it. and the two in
terviewed the Governor. He stood by
the law, and thus the Local and Gen
eraI Acts will be bound together.
Once before. Colonel CARRIER. In a
formal opinion. held that the contract
General Acts was good. For reasons of
expediency, however, II was found that
the combined publication is the better
arrangement. and the Governor select
ed it In preference to the contract II
is likely that the manner of publica-
ton provided for by the law will be
cheaper than the contract. II 1t is more
expensive. however, the difference will
be paid from the contingent fund OF
the Governor

OF directors at a meeting last night.
An exhibit room will be fitted up In
the building occupied by the club. in
which samples of goods manufactured

q sample of every product manufactur-
ed By the factories.

crate Veterans in making the reunion
q success.
Several thousand soldiers are expect
ed to attend the reunion and. with the
usual cent-a-mile rate allowed by all

people will probably take advantage of
the opportunity Of visiting Montgom-

Veterans will begin their canvas i'm
mediately for the amount.

tucked under his collar. The dog trot-

DEATH OF GOV. JOHNSON.

"Gov. johnson is dead." This
was the sad intelligence which
shocked the people from one end Of
Minnesota to the other yesterday
While we'll aware of his
critical illness, it was hard to be-
lieve that this active and optimis-
tic first citizen of the state, who so
lately was proclaiming the great
ness of Minnesota and the gospel of
the Minnesota idea of political in
dependence throughout the west,
lay cold in death. Death is no re-
specter Of persons, but claims as its
victims the great as we'll as the
humblest among the sons of men.
Gov. johnson will go into his
tory as one of the greatest men
Minnesota has produced. Not in
the sense that other men and politi-
clans have become great, by the
PRONUNCIATION and advocacy of some
great pricniple, but because he was
one of the common people and when
exalted forgot the animosities and
limitations of partisan strife and
strove continually to worthily re-
present the whole state and all its
people. No man has ever before
been so generally loved and ad-
mired by the common people Of
Minnesota as was John A. johnson.
His strong personal following
throughout the state was wonder.
full. His winning personality was
the terror of the opposing politi'
clans, who were powerless to check
mate it with any of their politica
craftiness.
Not only does Minnesota mourn
Throughout the nation there wer'
many who had their eye fixed upol

wonderful man should have bee

stands will for all time remain a
an inspiration to loyal Minnesotans

The Tribune bids its readers well
come to the Ninth Annual Street
Fair of Willmar. The soaking
shower of Monday night and Tues
day morning was followed by cooler
winds from the northwest, which
change will no doubt bring fair
weather during the balance of the
week. The streets and roads will
no doubt dry up sufficiently to per-
nit all the feature to take place.
We wish to repeat what we have
said before, that the Street Fair Of
Willmar is the great annual event
of the county and city, and as such
should receive the undivided sup
port and cooperation of all loyal
citizens. If the fair fails in some
particular to come up to your ideas,
then come in and help make it
what it ought to be. Nothing
worth while comes without special
efforts are made to make it come.
The Willmar Street Fair is one
of the best means that the city has
of advertising its advantages to
outsiders. The Tribune believes
that there is chance to build up
the annual fair to make it become
one of the biggest events of the
state which would contribute to.
wards the continued growth and de.
velopment of our community. Tt
make it succeed requires only that
