Morris tribune., 1913-04-04

The senate this week is wrestling
with three big measures-the Dunn
good roads bill, the workmen's com.
pensation act and the Nolan public
utilities bill. Two of these have
passed the house, but since leaving
that body they have been materially
amended and conference committees
will be necessary in the case of each.
The three represent practically the
last of the big legislation attempted
this session.
Morris tribune., 1913-04-04

The house committee on appropria.
tons and the senate finance commit
tee have agreed that the payment of
salaries through the medium of fees
must go. This hits George Author,
the governors new private secretary,
and I, A. CasweIl, clerk of the SUI
preme court. Neither will fight the
change. It is proposed to give each
a straight salary of either $4,000 or
$4,000 year. The latter figure will
more likely prevail Both Offices have
been estimated to be worth all the
way from $4,000 to $4,000 a year
each, but the former figure is nearer
the truth

Minnesota's $4,000 ''jag" cure
farm and hospital will be continued
for a while longer. Declaring that
the new institution was a palace in
appointments and the forty or more
patients confined in the institution
were costing the state more than they
were worth, DR.. Stone of Park Rapids
tried to have the buildings turned in
to a hospital for the cure of tubercu-
losis, but failed. He.was voted down
two to one The house has since in
creased the tax on saloon licenses
for it's maintenance from to per
cent. The big end of the cost of the
institution is borne by the large cities
and the increase in the tax is not
relished by them.
Morris tribune., 1913-04-04

Senator Thomas eastman of Steele
county, author of the distance tariff
bill, which is now law, is talked of
as a possible candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for governor two
years hence. The amount of good
advertising he received as a result of
the passage of the bin, it is claimed,
would make him formidable oppo
nent for the other side
Morris tribune., 1913-04-04

With the new legislative and SEN
atorial reapportionment act now a
law there is little chance of any cor
rections until after the next census.
Not satisfied with some of the
changes made, Seventh and Eighth
district members induced the house
to pass two bills amending the act,
but the senate has refused to accept
them on constitutional grounds. They
contend that changes are clearly out
of order at this time.
Morris tribune., 1913-04-04

The senate is expected to make
some decided changes in the house
inspection bill Under the terms of
the measure state inspection is ex-
tended to restaurants and eating
houses of every description and kind
cure. Representative Minnette of
Stearns county and other country
members tried hard to wipe out some
of the regulatiye features as they ap-
ply to rural hostelries and eating
houses but we're unsuccessful. The
bill passed the house by a bare ma
jority.

lousy low price, but his name is not
given in the report covering the in
vestigation which has been filed with
the house. Keller claimed to be in
terested only as an attorney for those
favored, but he admitted that his pay
depended on the catch of fish made
from week to week. AS they tell it
here Kellers friends worked like
trojans to keep his narae out of the
report. A st. Paul member of the
house committee drafted it and he
helped out the mayors friends by
simply referring to the mayor as a
certain st. Paul attorney.

One of the big things to come is
congressional reapportionment. The
senate is making the draft, which will
give the state one more congressional
district and the political ambitions
of a dozen or more are tied up in
what will happen. The new district
will be whitfield out of a part of Hen
nepin county, with 1santi, Anoka,
Sherburne and Washington counties

HE CUT HER THROAT.
Convict Murdered Woman While
Out on Parole.

Indianapolis, Oct. 16.-A convict in
the state reformatory at Jeffersonville
has confessed that he murdered Flor
ence Brown, the Dallas, Texas, stem
ographer who was found in an office
there with her throat cut on last July
IS according to D. c. Peyton super
intendent of the reformatory here. The
official refuses to make public the
name of the prisoner, but declared that
it had been definitely established that
the man, who was a paroled prisoner,
was in Dallas the day of the crime. An
investigat ton now is being made be-
cause it is believed other persons were
implicated in the crime.
The man who confessed, according to
Supt Peyton, had been sentenced for
murder in Indiana and paroled. He
went to Texas, where he told the Off
Gals that after being intoxicated for
several weeks, he went into the real
estate office where Miss Brown was
employed to rob the place. The stem
ographer threatened to scream and he
cut her throat with his pocket knife,
the convict. said.
Leaving Dallas, the convict returned
to Indianapolis, where he was arrested
and returned to the reformatory for
violating his parole. After a few
weeks he called for Superintendent
Peyton and made his confession.

LUMBER RATE HEARING
1t Begins Before a Special Exam

! Kansas City, Oct. 16.-Hearing on
/ the complaint of the Ingham Lumber
| company of this city against an in
! crease in freight rates on lumber from
! Arkansas Oklahoma, Louisiana, Tex
as and Missouri points to points in
Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan
and Illinois were opened here today
by c. r. Marshall, special examiner
for the interstate commerce commits
sion. a dozen other lumber COM
panies are interested in the complaint
brought in the name of the Ingham
company.
|. The complaint is directed at the
Kansas City Southern, the ST. Louis &
San Francisco, the Missouri Pacific
and the Chicago, Rock Island & Pa
cific companies These lines on March
IT last issued a new tariff increasing
lumber rates from a half to cents
a hundred pounds above the old rate.
The new tariff never has been applied
because the lumber companies OBJ
tanned an order from the interstate
commerce commission suspending it
until a hearing could be given the
shippers.
A typical instance mentioned in the
complaint is an increase in the rate
on lumber from Meyers, Ok, to Lib
erty, Mo-, from Is cents to p cents.
What are known as the banana rate
cases will be heard here by Mr.. Mar
shall beginning next Monday.
An investigation of rates on tropi-
cal fruits held in Topeka last Deem
Der by the interstate commerce COM
mission disclosed a rate of so cents a
hundred on bananas from New Or
leans to Topeka and II cents from
New Orleans to Lincoln and Beatrice,
Neb.,' Mr.. Marshall said today.
1.-The commission found the rate to
Topeka unjustly discriminatory as
compared with the Il cent rate and
ordered the carriers to cease the dis
elimination. The railroads attempted
to comply by increasing the rate to
Beatrice and Lincoln to 80 cents a
hundred. These proposed increases
were suspended by the interstate COM
merce commission and the Topeka
cases with complaints from Wichita
jobbers were reopened.'
