Both: Houses - Of the Legislature
have been literally swamped by the
load Of bills that have been pouring
in. The special committees have done
good work, that is, they have been in
dustrious but neither branch, Of the
house in committee work as whole
have been, able to handle the vast vol
ume of business or to properly con-
slider, the great number of bills on al
most every conceivable subject hat
have-been presented There are more
than $50 bills on general orders in
the house, and nearly one-half Of that
number in the Senate and the number
is growing daily. In order to get con-
sideration important measures must
be made special orders by fixing a
day for action on them. This can on
ly be done by two-thirds vote.

a Drastic Dry Law

There is disposition in both Hou-
SEES to enact laws that will clean up
booze business entirely if rigidly en-
forced. Senator Gandrud is leading
the fight in the Senate and Putnam Of
Ottertai1 in the House. If the bills
that have been proposed materialize
into laws, without amendment, the
path of the '.'bootlegger" or moon
sinner" in Minnesota will be a thorny
one indeed. Officers will be authoriz-
ed to seize forbidden beverages wher-
ever found and the automobiles that
transport the .contraband wet goods
will be confscated. A companion bill
requiring all favoring extracts con-
tanning alcohol to be handled solely
by druggists is also pending but has
little show of favorable action, u
Next week the street car bill will
be disposed Of in the House and the
Tonnage Tax and the Highway bill
will get final consideration in the Sen
ate. -. ,

Too, Many Lawyers

There are too many lawyers in the
Senate, there being no les than 26t of
the 81 members, while the farmers
have only II, and some of these gen.
orally vote with "big business" Some
OF these attorneys admittedly repre-,
sent the large corporations of the
Twin Cities, but most of the country
lawyers, except Mr.. Naplin, usually
vote with their city brethren on the
most important measures. Good pro.
gressive farmers should be chosen for
the seats occupied by the two Sulli-
vans, Benson, Hall, Hopp, Gjerset
Baldwin, Peterson and some others ]

OF being the first of the original thir-,
teen states, in that it was the first.

That the land comprised in the

the figures represented about $500
per square mile for the entire state?
=, That Lord Baltimore contracted to
pay for what is now Maryland two In

the precious metals mined, and that
no gold or silver being produced, he
actually obtained the territory for the
arrows? -
That to New Hampshire falls the.
honor of having cast the decisive vote:
which definitely formed the United
States?
That Verrazano, an Italian naviga'
tor, sailed into New York bay in 1924,
IS years before Henry Hudson, to
whom popular credit for the discovery
is given?> That Manhattan Island,
which is now new York City, was
purchased from the Indians for $24
worth of beads and ribbons?
That the settlement of Georgia ORR
ginally was conceived as buffer
against the Invasion Of Spanish and
Indians into South Carolina?
That Lord Baltimore ruled over the
colony of Maryland to all intents and
purposes an independent sovereign;
that the rule extended to >Ais son and
that this hereditary monarchy contin-
ued in force for nearly $50 years, I'M
til the Declaration Of Independence
brought it to all end?
That no one can say positively which
of the two states North Dakota ana

Union first; because the rivalry Tor
the honor between the two being SO
great, the papers purposely were
shuffled both before and after the
presidents SIGNATURE so that neither

These and many other interesting
facts concerning the states and ter

light concisely, entertainingly and in
the smallest possible space in SER
les of short-featured articles entitled
'sThe Story of Our States" which are
now appearing in the Willmar Tri-

This feature is prepared by one
who uses the name, Jonathan Brace.
We will not say that it is his real
name. We do say that he is dis

has made both hobby and a serious
study of American history. The enig-
ma of his identity becomes 1ncfeas-
ingly interesting from the number OF
odd, yet perfectly authentic facts
which he has dug up in this series.
In nearly all cases the article con
tains some new historical fact or one
not heretofore generally known. The
feature will attract school children
students and general readers of all
kinds.
In each case the coat of arms of the
state is shown. This will be particu
