comparatively unimportant breaches
OF discipline, and in very many in
stances there does not appear to
have been any temperate or judicial
infiiction of punishment"
The Committee also found that tie
record of punishments was grossly in
correct, that it did not show all the
punishments inflicted and that in
many cases punishments were inflict-
ed by subordinates that were not re-
ported to the Superintendent.
All Of the members of the Commit
tee concurred in the report to this
extent.
The majority of the Committee al
so recommended the discharge of the
superintendent, the Assistant Super
intendent and the two Family Man
ayers who were directly in charge of
the Institution.
Senator Rockne, who represents the
city in which the institution is locat-
ed, filed a minority report striking out
that portion of the report discharging
those who are in charge of the school.
This minority report was adopted in
both Houses by good majority.
Could legislative inconsistency so
further?
The legislature unanimously declar-
ed that conditions at Red Wing were
most reprehensible but that the par
ties in charge and responsible for
these conditions were most respect
able.
1t is not strange that after taking
such action that the House passed a
bill 104 to IA, that it's members might
be recalled as soon as they had TAX
en- their oath of office?
A Resurrection.
The eastman distance tariff bill
after being killed in the Senate was
resurrected in the House on Thursday
last and was passed by one majority.
This result was due entirely to the
efforts of Speaker Dunn. He called
Representative Mckenzie to the chair
and taking his seat directed the fight
in favor of the measure from the
floor
I Without entering into discussion Of
the merits of this measure it is safe
to assert that had it not been for the
support of the Speaker it would have
made sorry showing in the House
and he is entitled to credit, and all the
censure if such action is censurable.
His speech on the subject was the
oratorical event of the session, rather
noted for oratorical efforts, and his
frey eloquence carried everything be-
fore it.
The Colonel.
Theodore Roosevelt, who as "Billy''
Nolan in his pat speech of introduc-
tion stated stepped down from the
position of First Citizen of the Repub-
lie that he might step up into the DO
sition of First Citizen of the World
has lost little of his old time popular
ity in st. Paul and Minnesota, if the
enthusiasm with which he was greet
ed when he paid brief visit to the
capital city last Friday be criterion.
Thousands of people gathered to
greet him at the depot hours before
the arrival of the train. The streets
from the station to the Saint Paul Ho-
tel were black with people who had
waited long and patiently for his ap.
pearance and when he finally came in
sight the crowds barred their heads
and shouted themselves hoarse.
1t was little less than mob that
surrounded the Capitol building and
fairly fought for an opportunity to
hear him speak.
One old Grand Army man was seen
vending his way to the capitol about
nine o'clock in the morning. He car
ried dinner pail in his hand He took
up a position in the front seat of one
of the House galleries and remained
there till nearly nine o'clock which
was about the time the Colonel began
| his speech. At noon and again at six
o'clock the old "vet" opened his din
ner pail and quietly helped himself to
J lunch. Devouring his sandwiches and
drinking his cold coffee with great ap-
parent relish. He certainly earned
the right to hear the Colonel and he
did hear him.
There may be some way of keeping
on old civil war veteran from getting
what he wants but none has been dis
covered uD to date
