after January goth, 1920, whether
or not national prohibition went into
effect. One half of one per cent will
be the maximum allowed after that
time.
Bankers Don't Like It.
A bill that won't bring any parti-
cular Joy to northern bankers passed
the house last week. 1t provides that
when you go to a bank to borrow
money the most that can be smeared
on you in the way Of interest shall
be eight per cent.
An apileptic farm of four hundred
acres Is to be started on state land
in Northern Minnesota according to
a bill that is likely to pass, and as
it is quite a plum, Beltrami won't be
looking the other way when 1t Is be-
ing passed out.
There is a public hearing on Sena-
tor Nord's land bill tonight, and 1t
will come up for final action in the
senate this week. Senator Bessette's
bill allowing counties to clear land
for settlers met death by the suicide
route this week, its author withdraw
ing it when Mr.. Nord succeeded In
lacking on an amendment that no
land could be cleared in such way
without a vote Of the people.
Noonan Good Guesser.
Three different tonnage tax bills,
which brought forth three different
fights among the authors and three
cheers from the mine owners have
been introduced. Two Of them were
assassinated today, and owing to
squabbles among the authors 1t is
not likely that tonnage tax bill will
pass this year. When we predicted
this very thing a month ago we were
accused of knowing as much about
politics as a chap who studied 1t In
a correspondence course with all the
mail carriers on strike, but 1t
begins to look as II we can't guess
wrong all the time.
A bill to allow county boards to
bond for roads by an unanimous vote
without going to vote Of the tax
payers passed the house last week
but it is running into snags in the
senate. 1t was launched so as to &C
celerate work on the proposed Bah
cock system by counties wishing to
take advantage Of the provision
which allowed them to improve roads
on the route, and for which the state
would later refund the money.

will be explained in detail In our
next letter.
The wolves will have no cause for
Joy If Dan DuLury's bill providing a
wolf bounty fund for the next two
years. becomes a law, and it will.
Likewise murders In Minnesota
won't be tossing up their hats If a
bill introduced yesterday Is chochet-
ted into a law. 1t provides that in
stead Of becoming members Of the
Saltwater colony they will have a
piece Of rope wrapped around their
necks and tied into a loyer's knot.
Many members are in favor Of the
death penalty and the bill may pass.
Only five weeks remain before the
lawmakers will go home to earn a
living and unless they get hustle
on many bills will not even be acted
upon. The art Of talking has become
proficient art with many Of the
lads down here, and as 4 result much
time is wasted. For instance on Fri
day the house gossiped all day as to
what constituted beer. The drys con-
tended that you could accumulate a
glorious bun, jagload' or whatever
you wish to call it on two per cent,
while the vets were equally certain
that while you could get drowned
with 1t you couldn't get drunk with
1t. The result was that the whole
day was taken up by members who
didn't know anything about the sub
ject explaining 1t to other members
who also didn't know anything about
1t. There never was any question
about the drys carrying their point,
and when evening ratified along 1t
was decided that even two per cent
would be a dear departed amber"
