is just possible that the shrewd chair
man of the senate finance committee
had a merry twinkle in his eye when
he wrote to Chancellor Coffman.
While talking about the University,
let me add that it has become GER
tainty that at the middle of this
month the two branches of the legis-
lature will meet in joint convention
and re-elect the present members Of
the board of regents, in accordance
with the territorial act of 1851, de-
clared to be in force by the state
supreme court An attempt will be
made by some farmer-labor senators
and representatives to change the per-
sonnal of the board, but it will com
mand very little support.
On Thursday the house put in a
full day wrangling about the Ship
|stead-Newton bill, about which l
wrote last week in connection with
the senate's action. About forty per
cent of the representatives favored an
amendment exempting from the pro
visions of the bill strip along the
border, but all except five voted for
the resolution upholding the bill on
its final passage.
Exactly half the session is now
over. The senate has been in session
36 days; the house 80 days, includ-
ing today.

DOINGS OF THE
LEGISLATURE
CONTINUED from Page u

Paul, representing union labor organ
izations, Senator ]. ID. Sullivan of st.
Cloud and L. F. Meese of Minneapo-
lis, speaking for the Associated Ba-
kers of Minnesota. The Rev. B. e.
Bergeson of Minneapolis and the Rev.
John Holland of St Paul backed up
Mr.. Volstead in support of the bill.
A bill to prohibit persons who are
not lawyers from soliciting legal bust
ness for lawyers was introduced sew
eral weeks ago and has stirred up
considerable interest. 1t is generally
interpreted as move on the part of the
railroad and insurance companies, for
be much easier for them to settle
claims against them for small con-
sideratiOn. At public hearing
Thursday, the measure was denounced
by Mr.. McGrath of st. Paul on behalf
of the Railroad Brotherhood and by
held Saturday, when it was both as
sailed and defended. 1t is safe to as
sumo that no anti-ambulance chas-
ing bill will be passed. as the aver
age member of the legislature sees
no need for such legislation
A bill under consideration which
has aroused much interest is one that
proposes the establishment of state
weighing and grading of livestock at
all packing plants and concentration
points in Minnesota outside of South
st. Paul, the terminal market, where
there is state weighing and federal
grading. There have been two hear
ings on the bill, the first several
weeks back, the second Thursday and
Friday afternoon.
Direct buying of livestock at vari-
ious outside points has proved the
severest blow ever dealt the South ST.
Paul market, declared Thomas e.
Good, president of the ST. Paul Union
stockyards.
The controversy in the legislature
over the University took an interesting
turn last week, when Chancellor L. D.
COffman proposed an interim investi-
CATION of the University and Senator
A. j. Rockne wrote him letter in
which he said that no inquiry is
needed, as the institution was inves-
tigated by an interim commission only
few years ago and given clean
bill of health-a commission of which
Governor Christensen, Lieutenant Gov
ernOr Nolan, w. |. Norton and r. w.
Hitchcock were members.
AS the state administration is OPP
posing full allowance of the approp-
ration requests of the University and
as Senator Rockne is in favor of gen.
erous treatment of the institution, it

NAVAL OFFICER WINS
 FIGHT FOR PROPERTY
Supreme Court UphOlds His Title to Porto Rican Land Over Pro-
 tests of Two crnmentS

San Juan, Porto Rico, March 19 .tP)-Lieutenant Commander Virgil Baker, |. $. N., retired, was estab- lisbSd today at Fort San Geronimo after lengthy litigation which ques- toned his 99-year lease of the old Spanish fOrtitication.
 The tract comprises about 14 acres and a frame house erected on the site of the old fort, which was built in 100. The United States government and the Porto Rican government in civil actions contend. ed that Baker by repeated misrepre- sentations to the navy department obtained it's transfer from the army to the navy, on the claim it was UT gently needed by the latter, and then obtained the property for his per sonal use.
 The supreme court sustained the former naval officer. however, and the property has been turned over to him by the commander of the military district of Porto Rico upon order of the war department.
