WOULD ABOLISH THE SENATE
Either That or the Recall Says Vic.
tor Berger, Socialist.


Chicago, January 9.-Either TO pin
a recall tag to the togas of United
States senators or to totally abolish
the american house of lords" are
the alternatives OF plan soon to be
laid before the nation by Victor L.
Berger, the socialist congressman,
who will sit in the next house as
the first of his political faith to en-
joy that honor.
While Berger refuses personally to
discuss his plans on the ground of
ethics" his socialist assistants here
tonight declared one of his slogans
will be the abolition of the senate,
as the "bulwark of legislative favor
and protection simultaneously with
the adjustment of the British house
of lords as the chief agent of the
wealthy classes of England
Berger's personal belief, his asso-
ciates say, is like the 1ndian-"the
only good one is the dead one" The
plan the socialist congressman has
in preparation is to either provide
for the election of senators by popu.
lar vote with power of recall and
referendum for instructions as to
how they shall vote on public meas
ures, or the total abolition of the
senate as a menace at all times to
the welfare of the common people"

GREAT WATER PRODUCER
Mccarthy Well Sends Forth Plenty
Of Adams Pure Ale.

From Mondays Daily.
The Mccarthy well has reached a
depth of LOIS feet, or 100 feet be.
low the deepest Hubbard mill well.
The flow is increasing rapidly, and
now amounts to about 500 gallons a
minute, which is greater even than
the flow of the Broad street well
which has been considered the city's
best we'll and a 'crackerjack.' The
drilling will be continued for while
longer, or as long as the flow of
water increases. A fine, gritty red
dish sand such as composes soft
red sandstone is being brought up
by the drill. 1t is believed that a
courser sand will soon be struck,
which will add good deal to the
flow of water.
The city officials are greatly pleas
ed with the results secured by sink
ing the Mccarthy we'll deeper.
The Hubbard well that was sunk
915 feet deep has been losing flow,
it is thought, and was to be meas
ured this afternoon. If it has lost
on account of the city well going
lower, it is to be lowered as deep
as the city well.

WiNONA WILL NOT JOIN
Gate City Passes Up Opportunity to
sNr Assist in Appeal.

City Attorney Richard A. Randall
is in receipt of communication from
City Attorney John w. Schmidt of
Mankato asking this city to join with
Mankato in the appeal to the SUI
preme court for the reargument of
it water damage case, says The Re-
publican and Herald. The supreme
court recently decided that Mankato
is responsible for injury to the
health of it's citizens through the fur
nishing of impure water The two
cases grew out of the typhoid cpl
demic two years ago.
The petition for reargument holds
that the court was in error in sew
eral places, and the attorneys ask
for a reargument upon the whole
question of whether cities are re-
sponsible 70 rdamages resulting from
the torts of officers.
The petition recites that in the
absence of statute holding the
cities responsible, the question is of
too much importance to be decided
on the argument presented in the
original cases.
Mr.. Randall states that the COM
munication of the Mankato city at
torney has been given consideration
and that this city will not join with
MankatO in the appeal.

NOT A BIDDER FOR PLANT
No One Put in Proposal to Buy the
Packing House.

Packing House.
From Tuesdays Daily.
If anybody wants to pick up
packing house cheap the opportunity
offers. All should not speak at
once. When the Macbeth e. Card
ner packing plant was offered for
sale at public auction this forenoon
no one spoke. Not bid was Of
fered, and Trustee Nyquist was un-
able to get it off Of his hands. So,
if anybody wants to buy packing
house plant cheap, he can be ac-
commodated.
The auction sale began at ten
o'clock this forenoon and continued
until noon, and was resumed this
afternoon. During the forenoon some
horses, stock and machinery were
sold. Some other things were Of
fered, but no bids were received. A
number of people gathered to wit
ness the sale, but all were not bid
ders.
c. j. Laurisch, one of the attor-
neys for the trustee, conducted the
sale
