| under consideration. Mr.. Hill was
easily the favorite and to those who
have never heard the empire builder
his talk was decidedly interesting.
The burden of the argument was that
if the Northwest is to prosper the
railroads must be permitted to charge
more for freight and passengers
The probable passage of the bill is
not good betting proposition.

| Though the house committee re-
ported for indefinite postponement a
! bill calculated to increase the taxes
to be paid by the big telephone COM

ern, the house insisted on adopting
the minority report. In the senate
| foes of the Minnette state telephone
control bill have been endeavoring
for week to put it out of business,
but so far they have been unsuccess-
full. They have, however, succeed
ed in pretty near stripping the bill of
its teeth. One of it's motors was
provision calling for physical connec-

That there are features in connec-
ton with the state university that
many throughout the state do not
like, and that they would welcome an
investigation Of some of its workings
is evident, but the chances are de-
cidedly remote of the same being car
ried out. Friends of the university
headed off an attempt at a special in
vestigation of the institution, confin-
ing the work to the regular commit
tee. 1t is TO report in twenty days,
period of time decidedly too short for
such an immense task.

Governor Hammond is not certain
whether or not he will run again, but
if he does he intends to make his
campaign on the activity of job hold
ers. This is in the event that the
economy and efficiency bill is killed.
He so declared before the meeting
of the St. Paul Office men and en-
phasized his remarks by saying that
he had the names of all who were
opposing the adoption of the bill and
that they would hear from him in
due time. This is the whip which
the opponents of the bill say his ex-
cellency is using to force its passage

Though adopted at the last election
the senate killed the Holmberg bill
providing for the carrying into effect
of the forestry amendment to the
constitution known as No. 9. The
bill provided for an appropriation of
$4,000 to make a soil survey under
the amendment. The two houses have
had it in for the forestry department
ever since the session opened. A
number of the members have openly
charged that the department is not
what it should be and have sug-
gested its adjustment. They also
charged it with political activity. The
Twin City papers have been active in
support of the department, but
strange to relate the forest country,
from where support should come, has
shared, in a measure, the views of the
opposition. 1t is almost certain that
the biennial appropriation of several
hundred thousand dollars asked for by
the department will be badly slashed. |
