This years Roundup program.
omittng as it does an mention OF
Otto Kline the champion trick rider
whose feaS threw past Roundup
crowds into tumultuos applause. cam
not but bring to mind the dangers
which these cowboys and cowgirls
flirt with as they recklessly dash
about the track or mount to the back
OF buckne hroncho.
Kline IS only one who has paid
with his life for his daring horseman-
ship. While entertaining a Madison
Square Garden crowd last spring
with his ability as a cowboy eques-
trian he fell beneath his horse s
hoofs and sustained injuries from
which he died The saddest part OF
Il an was that he left behind a bride
OF only a month.
Kline was one OF the best known
and most popular OF wild west per-
formers. trick rider without a
peer. a good fellow among the other
cowboys and cowgirls, he was yet a
quiet, well conducted gentleman and
no one man who ever came here TO
help entertain the Roundup crowds
was liked better than he.
The New York World tells of his
tragic death in the following words:
Three cowpunchers, TEX" Nc
Leod, "Cy9 Tompton and Buster
Trowe, riders in the Barnum and
Bailey circus walked slowly out OF |
ward IS in Bellevue Hospital last
evening with tears they made no e;-
fort 10 check running down their
cheeks.
Inside the ward they had just left /
the body OF range-riding pal of sew
en- years Otto Kline. called the great
est rider Of horses in this country,
whose skull was crushed beneath his
horses feet in the circus arena In
Madison Square Garden yesterday aft
ernoon.
Kline did not regain consciousness
from the moment Of the accident that
shocked 500 men ana women specta-
tors. until his death in the hospital
three hours later. But the sorrow OF
his old chums cannot measure up TO
the grief that will strike the heart OF
his bride, bride Of only one month.
She telegraphed Kline only yester-
day that her show had closed in Bal
timore and that she was coming on
to New York on Saturday to remain
with her youthful husband. No
word was sent to Mrs. Kline last night
as the friends Of the dead rider were
fearful OF the effect Of the news on
her.

Forecast


This nation draws fresh inspiration
from the life Of Lincoln each year
New phases OF the career of tn
Gmancipator ere constantly cOmine
to light. It takes at least a century
for greatness to be thoroughly i'm
pressed upon p~osterity. Lincoln dice
a martyr to a just cause, but no mar
was more criticized or mallgned thar
he.
Time is %vindicating his position on
the great national issues. BY no one
has common sense been applied tc
the affairs of state so effectively as
ny Lincoln. The common standards
of right and Of wrong guided his acts.
%Salbterfuge was unknown to this
quiet man whose demeanor was al.
ways frank in the extreme.
His life and acts are inexhaustib:e
stores from which the modern states
man a draw valuable precepts. It
is fitting that the legislature and the
state as a whole join in honoring the
memory Of the man who did so much
for his nation and exacted so little
from It in return.

SEVERAL BILLS
we're KILLED
Hjelmstead's Bill Providing for
Board of Censors Was One.

l.. N. TOrson presided over a rather
stormy session of the committee of
the whole house yesterday afternoon.
Some of the bills up for committee
action were bitterly fought and sew
eral were indefinitely postponed.
Among those killed were the moviIs
picture censor board, the cigaret bill
and the bill for the licensing of steam
and gasoline engine operators.
Action was deferred on II. B. 1S9
(Steenson), on account Of the illness
of the author and his inability to he
present. #
, HjeImstad's Bill.
Peder l.. Hjelmstad of Walsh made
a speech in behalf of his bill Oh. B.
1S4), which provides for a state board
of censors for moving pictures pre-
scented in the state and when he was
through talking l.. l.. Twichell moved
that the speech be printed in the
journal. The chair, however, ruled
his motion out of order.
The bill as amended in committee
and brought into the committee Of
the whole fixed the salary of the chief
censor at $1,000 and the assistant cen.
sor at 5000. The majority of the
house committee recommended it's
passage and a minority recommended
it's indefinite postpoaement.
Hjelmstad said that there were no
objectionable features in the bill anu
stated that the board would be self
sustaining. The idea in the bill is to
charge $500 per reel for the inspec,
ton of the pictures by this board OF
censors. The author of the bill also
stated that many indecent and i'm
moral plays were presented in the
moving picture houses Of the state
to his certain knowledge, but Staalc
iliendrickson later stated that Helm
stad had told him a few Gays ago that
he had only been to one moving pic
ture show in the last 10 years:
National Board a Humbuq.
Hjelmstad also argued that the NJ.
tional board of censors is a humbuS.
than which there is no greater, and,
went on to say that this board has
no authority by law and is employed
by the manufacturers of the films.
Regarding the motion of MIR. Hend.

yeterday with but ten negative votes.
Those opposing were Senators Allen,
Bronson, .Gronwo.d, Jacobsen, McGray

and Rowe.
Senator Englund ended the little
fllibuster or his measure by getting
it on third reading through a suspen-
sion of the rules after the ways and
mean committee returned the. meas.
ure to the house without recommen.
dation. A call of the senate was Or
dered but dispensed with when all

Gated.

measure in the senate came on House
BEL ia which puts solicitors for IL
quor in the same class as bootleggers

to "a. The measure was then deferr-
ed n day. -
County seat matters bobbed up
when Senate Bill a19 was up for pas
sage. This bill provides that a major
ity vote is sufficient to move the
county seat.
Senator Gardner of Nelson county
fought to cur an amendment which
would retain all county seats now sit
uated on railroads. This was opposed
by Senator Nelson, of Rolette, who re-
cited how a minority defeated the re.
moval Of the county seat in his coun-
ty under the two-thirds rule which OBJ
tains under the present law. The bill
vas laid over until Senator Mudgett,
lis author, returns.
House Bill 6S was killed a few days

but Senator Wartner failed to get it
before the body yesterday. 1t makes
