ployed by the league net in commits

ganization idea one member of the
legislature told Of the appearance in
his county of an individual calling
himself the head of the Free Speech
league. With little trouble, according
to my informant, he organized a
branch OF the league with member
ship Of $50 and collected an initiation

consisted in standing the entire crowd
up and reading to them the ritual of
the organization, to which each swore
allegiance.
The bill permitting boxing in the
three large cities of the state is in
the balance and no one would be sur
prised If the measure allowing box
ing exhibitions Is stricken from the
statute books. Its repeal was pro-
posed in bill offered by Senator Ole
A. Sageng of Otter Tail county, and
judging from the comment INDUCED in
it will have a number of supporters.
The one trouble with the present box
ing law is that 1t has been cornered
for the benefit of a few. Even the
fight fans have been disguised with
the methods employed in putting over
an "airtight," and if permitted to vote
on the question would undoubtedly
help in putting the act out of bust

If the two houses will give their
approval the voters at the next gen.
eral election will be permitted to pass
on a constitutional amendment great
ly reducing the size of the legisla-
ture. Representative NJ w. Odland
of Otter Tail county wants the legis-
lature reduced and has offered a bill
cutting the house down to eighty
members and the senate to forty. At
present the house consists of 1870 men,
bers and the senate of sixty-seven.
It is generally agreed that the house
is entirely too large for good work.
Some months ago gossip was rife
to the effect that Justice Oscar Hal
lam Of the supreme court would retire
the first of the year, but it now looks
as if he would serve out his term.
His reported retirement had to do
with the formation of new St. Paul
law firm, which, however, has been
organized without Justice Hallam's
name attached. It is said by some
that Justice Hallam will figure in a
different official role two years hence.
1t may be either as a candidate for
governor or United States senator.
