In passing the District appropriation bill
in two h6afs yesterday, the Senate set a
new record for legislation.
Not only did the bin as reported 20
the Senate carry 100000 more than the
amount appropriated by the House, but
before il was passed yesterday this In
crease had been raised about $4,000.
Overman Adds S6I 900.
An amendment proposed at the last
minute by Senator Overman provides an
appropriation of $4,000 10 improve the
water system IN the vicinity of Conduit

teenth streets northwest.
Had it not been for Senator Gallinser' 3
objection an amendment offered by SEN
ator Burkett carrying an appropriation Of
$3.50 600 for a new negro high school might
have been passed.
Evidently the solons lost sight OF the
fact that economy is the watchword Of the
administration, and managed to slip in
here and there little amendments. adding
5000 or so to the budget.
Senator Gallinger had a proposal adopt
ed TO give the Juvenile Court another
clerk at $1,000. Senator Bacon's suggestion
that $1,000 be appropriated to the Com
missioners to erect public clocks TO keep
citizens appraised Of the accurate time
was also adopted

The principal change and only reduc-
ton made in the amount recommended
by the Senate subcommittee was the
elimination Of an item allowing the Com
missioners 5000 to clean snow and ice
from the streets.
The bill was called up by Senator CALM
ger at 1890 o'clock and occupied the time
of the Senators until 2:30 o'clock. Con-
sideration of the items progressed rapidly,
and interruptions were few and far be-
tween.
Senator Galllnger halted the proceed
ings long enough, TO voice a protest
against District officials illustrating their
annual reports, and the Senate sustained
him in his argument that hereafter the
Joint committee on printing be consulted
On such matters.

MORRISON COUNTY BAR
Attorneys to Org nizs As
sociation 1t Meeting on
April the 18th

An informal meeting of the attorneys
of the county was held in the Offices
of Attorney E. A. King Thursday
evening of last week at which the
lawyers talked over the proposition Of
organizing q Morrison County Bar
association, the object being to bring
about a closer relationship between
attorneys of the county.
Two committees were appointed at
this meeting one to draw up con-
stltutlon and bylaws and the other to
draw up a code of ethics. Both com"
mittees are to report at the meeting to
be held here April 18th next, when
the Morrison County Bar association
will be organized.
The American Bar association has
adopted a code of ethics, and the state
bar association has adopted similar
code, as has also the Ramsey and
other county bar associations. 1t is
accordingly most probable that tie bar
association to be organized for this
county will adopt similar code of
ethics.

A SUCCESSFUL FARMER :
ONLY ONE OF INCREASING NUN.
BER LOCATED ON MORRISON
COUNTY SOIL.

That poultry raising is an important
adjunct to the dairying business in
Morrison county, and is even more
profitable in this county than in the
older settled and improved farms of
Iowa ana other states we'll advanced IN
agricultural lines, was clearly shown
Tuesday of this week when Nike
Schlax of Green Prairie, a former
Iowa farmer, marketed 80 chickens at
the Little Falls Packing company shop
of this city and received for same
$50. ~. The chickens averaged him
"a 1-2 cents each, or 13 cents per
pound live weight, which IS 8 1-2
cents more per chicken than what an
Iowa farmer at his old home boasted
of receiving for his chickens.
Since coming to this county from
Iowa nine years ago, Mr.. Schlax has
been doing remarkably we'll. He came
here with very little, but now owns
his present large farm, on which are
fine buildings and stock. He states
that Ee is doing as we'll as he could ir
lowe. although when he first pur'
chased the land here he was told by his
: friends that he would be unable tt
; make his salt on 1t.

WAS 4 QUIET ELECTION
IouckS, Although Not Hav-
ing Filed, Is Alderman
from Third Ward

The city election Tuesday was thu
quietest affair since time forgotten.
At that there was surprise leaked
out of all the quletness. A number
who had opportuned e. A. Loucks to
file for alderman from the Third ward
without success, took the matter in
their own hands on election day and
when the votes were counted it was
found that Mr.. Loucks had secured 66
to Alderman Wllczek's s 33. Of course
the plan which worked successfully
was also quiet affair, no one on the
outside being WISE to the move until
things we're running very smoothly. -
As result MIR. Wilczek is breathing
vengeance on those responsible for the
little game. -
The contest in the Second ward for
alderman proved to be a very close
affair, Dana Brown winning over A.
W. Zaloudek by five votes. Neither of
the candidates did any particular
work.
For constable Henry Bentfeld de-
feated Christ Crest by a heavy
majority, carrying every ward.
The vote throughout the city was
very light, less than 500 votes being
cast.>

SEASON..

The millinery stores are very busy
preparing for their openings to be held
next week, when they will show alE
the latest spring styles in ladies' head
gear, and from the displays that are
being prepared, it is certain that we.
will see big hats, yes even larger than
last season, on Easter Sunday. A
rumor is floating about town that in
one or two Of the churches the pews
are being put further apart SO as to
accommodate the hats. The hats are
decorated with plenty of ribbon:
,.plumes, flowers, etc. Some will be-
decked with aero-plane ribbon, and
Judging from the size of the hat, It's
