day each house voted upon the sena-

eloquent tributes to the sturdy

Democrats as we'll as Republicans.
Every member OF the legislature,

Nelson, in obedience to the mandate

Several public utilities bills have
made their appearance. The one that
will probably meet with most favor
was introduced in the Senate by A.
j. Rockne of Zumbrota and i'm the
House by Messrs. Holmberg of Rem
vile, Minette of Sank Centre and
Schwartz of LIE Sueur. 1t extends
the power of the state railroad and
warehouse commission to cover tele-
phone companies and municipal pub
lie service corporations. And here is
where the rub comes. The cities of
the state, especially those of the
fourth class having home rule char
tiers. are extremely jealous of their
rights, which they believe to be en-
aangered by placing their public COR
porations under control of the state
and warehouse commission, a
in which many of them
have but little confidence.

parade in the greater part Of the coun-
try. In the middle west and Rocky
mountain country the weather viii be
not only fair, but warmer. according
to the weather bureau.
There are some dismal spots in the
prediction, however, While the ravag-
ing storm Of the past few days has
gone out Of the country, it is an
nounced that another seems to be
forming on the Pacific coast and may
mar Easter Sunday there.
Easter bonnets, buds and blooms,

More than a million miles OF travel is
the record claimed by w. B. Jerome,
general western agent for the New York
Central lines who was in Salt Lake
City Friday and Saturday OF the past
week on his return from a trip to the
coast. Few who heard Mr.. Jerome make
the statement were willing to believe 1t
at first, but when he had outlined his
work and the ground that he was re-
qulred to cover each year the claim
seemed more reasonable
Since he has been working In his pres
ent capacity Mr.. Jerome has been traV-
cling nearly $4,000 miles every year, at
which rate 1t would require twenty years
10 cover 1000, 900 miles. But Mr.. jerome
started travelling In 1878 and has been
going ever since then. He was travelling
passenger agent for years until he was
promoted to his present position. Now
he has jurisdiction over all of the Offices
of the New York Central lines north,

ada
Twice each year the western agent
passes through Salt Lake City. He goes
thence to San Francisco, Portland and
the northwest, and then south TO New
Orleans and Texas points and again as
far west as Los Angeles, Then he goes
north TO Canadian points and to the
larger cities of the middle west. He is
never in his home office three weeks at
time and with his wife, practically
lives on Pullman cars,
While here Mr. Jerome was at homo In
the Hotel Utah. which he declared was
