senator W.'''n Returns From ths
Legislative Session This Astsrnoon
a-Talks About csrtain Bills.


. Senator Wallin arrived from Bio
marek thia afternoon and remain till
Monday, during which time he Will
transact business. He reports that
anti-pass bill 40 passing the senate
with but one dissenting vote that of
Carter Of Wahpeton, who favored an
anti-pass BILL but desired to allow the
farmers passes to the agricultural
college, and besides he wanted the
railroad commissioners to have pass
81. The bin as passed by the Senate
will cause the commissioners to pay
they way about the state. Mr.. Wall
in believes that the bill will pass the
house.
Mr.. Wallin's tax sale bill passed
the Senate. This reduces the inter-
est ON delinquent taxes, sold "
twelve per cent instead Of "a per cent
and increases the time Of redemption
to I'VE years. It is yet to come be-
fore the house.
There d considerable sentiment In
both the house and the senate for
the sherin's salary bill introduced by
Mr.. Wallin. MI. Lee introduced the
bill In the house. II 1t 10 passed, II
viii be changed somewhat from the
original proposed bill.
The bill providing for the payment
Of taxes twice a year, passed the
house, but Mr.. Wallin says he SER
iously doubts if it will pass the Sen
ate. He is against it, because ne
thinks the penalty not severe enough
besides it would double the book
kaapine work in several of the coun-
ty Offices.
The bill increasing the salary OF the
oountv commissioners to five dollars
a day was passed, and later was re-
considered, for changes. 1t has been
recommended to pass. Mr. Wallln.
while favoring it, questions whether
it will give US any better patriotic
commissioners as whole.

ant that the State Auditing board OF

Mr.. Wallin believes that Bedford
who ia charged with embezzlement
will not be convicted. Bickford has
returned all of the money which he
placed in his Bowbells bank. He did
not really try to embezzle the money
because the certificates Of deposit
were on file at the office of the State
Treasurer. He might have been con-
victed Of misappropriating the states
funds, but Of embezzlement, never.

The labelling is being done at a cost of 20 cents per hundred crates, and various prices are paid for making the crates, which in this case simply means the mailing together of the parts. the crates arriving knocked down" Three distributing companies will handle the carlot shipments, thus insuring enough competition to get at least fair prices this season. Melons from the Mesa fields will reach all parts of the east, the coast. Canada and throughout all the northern states where there are people to buy them The Mesa. melon always commands better prices than melons grown in California, New Mexico. Texas or Florida. and are favorite with the dealers everywhere.
