en- route to Salem where the legisla-
ture will soon convene. One Of
Brooke's purposes in stopping off in
Pendleton was to have a conference
with Representatives Mann and Pc
terson over the speakership fight
which is waxing warm and is as yet
far from decided.
Although mentioned prominently as
a receptive candidate for the office of
speaker of the house, Brooke declar-
ed this morning he had withdrawn
from the race in order to better east
ern Oregons chances of victory in the
contest. When asked for his predic-
ton as to the ultimate result of the
fight, Mr.. Brooke stated he did not
care to go on record. "It is mixed
up affair." he said, "and it is hard
to say just what the outcome will be.
However, I think eastern Oregon's
chances of landing the speakership
are good. Mckinney of Baker and
Rusk of Union are the two leading
candidates this side of the Cascades
with the chances a little in favor of
the former, l think. Eaton of Lane
looked like sure winner for awhile
but his chances are growing DINNER.
Reynolds of Marion and Thompson of
klamath are also strong bidders for
the honor, all of which makes it very
difficult to make predictions"
When asked regarding the race for
president of the senate, he stated that
in his opinion Ben Selling of Portland
would never WELD the gavel Further
than that he did not care to be quot

In company with Mr. Brooke on his
trip to Salem are George E. Davis

Sanford Dodge as Shylock portrays
the moods and characteristics of

An analysis Of the House organ
ization will convince any reasoning
citizen that the Klemer-Stone
charges are true. Twelve re-
dictionary members were so placed
on the important committees that
they control legislation. The dozen
men who have been intrusted by
Speaker H. H. Dunn with this pow
er are: L. D. Brown. Little Falls;
C. A. Congdon, Duluth, Robert c..
Dunn. Princeton; G. r. Fowler.

E. Stone, St. Paul: w. H. Westcott.
West St. Paul; Harrison White
Luverne, Leonard Virtue. Blooming
Prairie; Albert Pfaender, New Ulm.
The committee of which these
dozen men have absolute control
are three: Taxes and tax laws.
where they have 10 Of the II
places; rules, where they have every
one of the five places, and general
Legislation, where they have nine of
II.
On appropriations they have nine
of 81, and temperance five of Is,
so that of the rs places on these five
most important comittees, one.
tenth of the membership Of the
house has 80 places. or more than
half of the whole committee
strength.
On these same five committees,

of any one Of these committees.

BRIEFS

Representative Converse has Sc
cured a fish hatchery for his people.
The story of his success will be told
later.
The net results of the session in
fundamentally democratic reforms
will be very small. The reactionary
organization is directly responsible.
DR.. w. I. Stone introduced a
resolution charging specifically that
the special interests controlled the
House organization and demanding
an investigation. There has been
and will be no inquiry of that
character.
The business of the House was
never before so badly congested at
this stage of the session. Under
the Cannonistic conditions which
prevail a reactionary minority of
one-third can now delay progressive
measures to their death.
The House passed one bill provid-
ing for the popular election of
United States Senator's: The
Senate passed another bill on the
same subject. The Senate passed
one recall bill; the House another
This lack of team work is moi

the reactionaries. after being de-
feated. clambered aboard the band

Greene. Hoffman, Lydiard, H. Nell

with the progressives.
Do you comprehend what all this
means? The fate of the primary
election bill depended absolutely
and alone upon the men in the
chair. 1t should not require very
many more expensive lessons in
politics like the present session to
convince people of the paramount

UNIVERSITY MAKING RECORD.

All over the world the name Of
the University of Minnesota is
known because of the discovery of
the wonderful new chemical, Bene
toll, in it's laboratories. One of
the many marvellous uses Of this
chemical is to instantly stop pains in
burns and scelds and in most cases
to prevent blistering. Kept handy
in the kitchen it would save many
a long drawn out case of suffering
from accidents because there is no
known product that will half as
quickly cure burns. scalds. cuts.
bruises, or poison Infection. Bene-
toll has been often tested against
old style remedies on two wounds
on the same person. and heals in
less than half the time taken by
them. Carlson Bros. Willmar.

hand he was author of the hotel
license bill and entrusted with the
responsibility of passing it through
the House.
l shall next present group of
progessives. naming only two, N.
j. Holmberg of Renville and Henry
Rines of Mora. Between forty and
fifty others might be included in
the list Of those who have carried
on the almost hopeless fight for
fundamental reforms. But Messrs.
Rines and Holmberg acted the
stellar parts on this occasion.
Let us assume that this happened
before the session started that
morning. Mr.. Holmberg sought
the speaker pro tenn and informed
him that the progressives were
determined to unlock the death
grasp of the elections committee
upon the throat of the primary bill
and bring the measure before the
House where it would be acted
upon out in the open. Still assum-
ing. the speaker pro tenn sought to
discourage this insurgency by in
forming the exponent Of progress
that the chair would hold that it
took a two.thirds vote to recall a
bill from a committee and make a
special order. Of course MIR. Holm
berg was sorry and to emphasize
his grief. probably threatened to
connect the incident with the
Klemer-Stone charges of special
interest control of the organiza-
tion. Whereupon, and this is more
than mere assumption, the speaker
pro TENS voice became lower and
more oily, and he made this pro-
position to the progressive leader !:
If you and few of your fol-
lowers will vote for my hotel bill.
I'm let the primary bill be advanced
this way-when we reach motions
and resolutions" in the order Of
business, / will find an excuse to
vacate the chair and will call upon
any one you name to preside. While
l am out you can make special
order of the bill. Mr.. Holmberq
accepted in considerably less than
a second and Mr.. Rines, another
dependable progressive was selected
to preside during the brief but
epochical period during which Mr.
Lennon was summoned from the
chamber.
| The rest of the story is simple ant
comparatively uuimportant. Mr.
Lennon vacated the chair, accord
ing to contract. Mr.. Rines wa
called upon to preside. Next Mr.
Holmberg moved that the primar,
bill be recalled from the elections
committee and made a SPECIAL order
for April 18th. A reactionary rails
ed the point of order that it woule
require eighty votes to carry thu
motion. Acting Speaker Rine'
ruled that a majority could d,
whatever they pleased with : TIL
bill. That settled the question ant

sort of measure. Minneapolis has a
liquor license zone. Two large
notes.-the Dykeman and the Radi-
sson, are outside this zone. A
bill was introduced to make an
exception of these two hotels and
permit them to dispose of intoxi-
cants. The people of Minneapolis
were and are violently opposed to
the granting of this special pri-
vilege. which amounts to an extern
sion of their patrol limits. Hence
it can readily be seen that this
particular bill must have had sub
stantial impetus personal and other
wise, to make it move under such
conditions.

play. Speaker H. H. Dunn was

Lennon is reactinary and ex-

that a majority have not the power

time. This speaker pro tenn is op-
