WILL BRING COURT ACTION
Representative Washburn Opposed to
Seven Senator Bill.

Representative w. d. Washburn, Jr.,
of Minneapolis has announced that If
no one else moves he will bring action
in court to set aside the seven sena.
tor" bill for an amendment to the
state constitution.
Hennepin county members deter.
mined, when the bill passed in such
an alleged irregular way, to contest
it to the end, but they have had no
consultation since the session ad.
journed. Later definite plans for the
legal fight will be made.
THE passage of the so called seven
senator bill, by which Hennepin coun.
ty now and probably Ramsey and St.
Louis counties in the future, are de-
prived of the equal rights of suffrage,
is gross violation OF the constitutions
of the state and of the United States,
which guarantee to every citizen equal
rights and equal protection of the
law" said Mr. Washburn.

Declaring that he was trying to
check the wave of pOpulism that is

former representative from the First

speaking before the Young Mems Re.
publican club at Minneapolis.
He assailed the initiative and ref
erendum, attacked the recall and de-
clared that the Oregon plan for the
election of United States senators just
passed by the Minnesota legislature
was unconstitutional and that it gave
the minority the right Of electing a
United States senator from Minnesota.
He intimated that the legislature was
not all that it should have been and
declared, with apologies to those mein.

the Legislature had passed the Keefe
bill would not give the measure a
great deal of weight with him, if he

GOVERNOR CAN BAR VETERAN
Duluth Judge Finds Preference Law
in Appointments Void.

IN appointments V0io.-
Judge Dibell of the Duluth district
court has declared unconstitutional the
state law which provides that old sol
diers shall be given the preference in
state appointments where they can
qualify for the situation.
The decision was in the suit of AL
bert Woolson against Governor Eber-
hart. MIR. Woolson sought the Office
of deputy boiler inspector. He said
he was an expert on boilers and an
old soldier and claimed that sGov.
ernor Eberhart violated the state law
when he appointed another man to the
place.
This was the second case of this
type to come up this spring, but the
first case was dismissed on a techni-
cality.

SIGNED BY THE GOVERNOR
Oregon Plan Of EIecting Senators Now
the Law in Minnesota.


Governor Eberhart has signed the
Keefe bill for the nomination of United
States senators by direct vote of the
people, making the Oregon plan law
in this state. The bill passed the
house unanimously and there were
but six opposing votes on the final
passage of the measure in the senate.
James A. Tawney has questioned
the constitutionalty of the law, but
the governor says that he can find no
point at which the bill can be serious.
ly attacked along that line. While
he does not consider the bill perfect,
it was passed by large vote by the
Legislature and as he believes in the
principle he could not justify himself
in vetoing it.

LEGISLATIVE SESSION ENDS
Several Important Measures Rushed
Through During the Clos
ing Hours.

After several weeks Of confusion In
which it appeared that the 1911 ses'
sion of the state legislature would have
the poorest record of accomplishment
of any legislature in recent years both
houses finally got down to work and
passed several important measures
which had been pending and the rec
ord, contrary to expectations. Will
show number of important bills
passed.
The four bills that have caused the
most discussion during the session
were the four popular vote bills, name
ly, the popular election of senators, the
statewide primary, the recall and the
initiative and referendum. The SEN
ate passed the Keefe bill for the popu-
lar election OF senators by good sized
vote. The initiative and referendum,
which had passed the house, did not
come to vote in the senate, where it
had come out of committee only a
couple of days ago.
The statewide primary and the re-
call were both senate bills which the
house had amended. The senate on
Monday refused to concur in the
house amendments and conference
committees were appointed on both
bills. The conference committee on
the statewide primary recommended
that the house recede from it's amend
ment putting in the judges and that
the senate accept the house amend
ment including the legislative men,
bers. The house adopted the report
and repassed the bill, sending it over
to the senate. This put both of these
bills up to the senate.
AboIishes Capital Punishment.
Capital punishment will no longer
be practiced in Minnesota, as soon as
the governor can receive and attix his
signature to the bill passed by the SEN
ate. BY a vote of 35 to 10 the Nc
Kenzie bill, which already had passed
the house, was adopted by the upper
branch of the legislature.
The senate also repassed the bill
limiting any county to seven senators,
as amended by the house, and the gov
ernor announced that he would sign it
Hundreds of bills fell by the way
side when the session ended and few
of the bills over which the house and
senate have spent lengthy arguments
and long flibusters during the last
few weeks have become law. But de-
spite that a number of important
measures have gone through, but have
attracted less attention because the
opposition to them was not so pro-
nOunced.
Following are the important bills
passed: One mill tax for good roads;
enlarging highway commission; general
forestry bill; prohibiting sale of malt
drinks: monthly sales of state lands;
limiting any county to seven senators;
peddlers' license; popular election OF
senator's: abolition of capital punish
ment.
Following are some measures that
failed to pass: Reapportionment; ton
mage tax; county option; 5 per cent
gross earnings tax; initiative and refer
endum the recall; statewide primary;
workmen's compensation acts; regu-
lation of telephones; reorganization of
state departments; waterway and
water supply bills; local option for
fourth class cities.

did its duty in cooperating with many
Ioyal and public spirited men who
saw a chance to promote the welfare
of Pendleton and the prosperity OF its
people and strove valiantly to do So
Conspicuous among the leaders In
tie traction movement were DR.. e. j.

THE BRIDES MISTAKE.

They were newly married and on
their honeymoon trip. They stopped
at a sky-scraper hotel. The brlde-
groom felt a little indisposed and the
bride said she would slip out ana 90

turned and tripped blithely up to her
room, trifle awed by the number
of doors that looked all alike. But
she was sure of her own and tapped
gently on the panel
"I'm back honey, let me in," she
whispered.
No answer.
Honey, honey, let me in" sic
called again, rapping louder.
Still no answer.
There was silence for several min
utes-then a mans voice, cold and

side of the door.

You'd be a fool!" said the witness

"No-nol" said counsel with height
