Try To Revive Suffrage Bill

st. Paul, April 10.-Attempts to
resurrect the suffrage issue IN the Min
nesota legislature have failed.
Senator D. P. O'Neill and 13 9th
ers tried to bring the constitutional
suffrage amendment bill back to life
by voting to Overturn the report of
the election committee whereby the
measure had been killed. There were
~ who decided to let the measure
rest in it's grave.
The efforts of Senator O'Neill and
his small number of followers were
directed mainly to putting some of the
heretofore ardent supporters of suf-
frage into the open. Senator Olaf
Lende, chairman of the elections COM
mlttee, frankly stated that the bill
had been killed because the drys did
not want to submit the suffrage
amendment at the same time that pro-
hihition is submitted to the people.
The outcome of the resurrection at
tempts were a foregone conclusion
long before the fight was started. A
group of women, comprising members
responsible for the attempts, how.
ever.
Senator Ward of Martin county.
aroused many of the senators when
he insisted that the vote would show
who was hypocritical on the suffrage
question. Incidentally, Senator Ward
had voted against constitutional suf-
frage two years ago and was criti-
clzed for his change of heart
Several military bills were intro
duced in both houses. One to pre-
vent interference with enlistments,
another to prohibit aliens from hav-
ing firearms or explosives in their
possession were introduced by Senator
George H. Sullivan and Representa-.
tive Albert F. Pratt.

Only One Farmer Favoes Measure.

Only One Farmer Favoee Measure.
St. Paul, April 9.-The Minnesota
Senate on April 18th killed the Eff
cheney and Economy Commissions
bill to create department of grain
inspection separate from the Mime.
sofa Railroad and Warehouse Com
mission by the one-sided vote of 46
to 16. The opposition to this measure
was led by Senators Ole o. Sageng,
Ottertail County; N. J. Holmberg.
Renville County; c. w. Gillian, Cot
tonwood County; D. P. O'Neill, Pen
nington County, and F. H. Peterson,
Clay County, all of them farmers or
representing purely agricultural com.
munities
Senator O'Neill made a striking
comparison between the farcical grain
inspection of the days when the de-
partment was under the control of the
governor, and the efficient inspection
of the present day, which is the result
of years of development, unhampered
by political interference" said Charles
3. Elmquist, Railroad and Warehouse
Commissioner. 1T is noteworthy in
this connection to recall that only one
farmer in the entire state senate voted
in favor of this measure, which with
out any question would have increased
greatly the annual expenses of the
grain department and unquestionably
have impaired it's efficiency, which is
recognized over the entire country"
