Legislature
Starts Work
Very Slowly
Farmer-Labor Majority Are
Asking Guidance of Veter-
an Conservatives

BY Representative r. w. Hitchcock
The second week of the forty
eighth Minnesota legislature was
marked by a lively dumping of bills
into the legislative hopper. The
bills were largely an index of the
times, bills to excuse and forgive
and forget, a perfect avalanche of
proposals for pairing down or post
poning tax payments and otherwise
offering of bills, also, were numer-
Gus proposals to carry out various
recommendation of Governor Oh
sons inaugural message as well as
variety of other proposals for ex-
periments in social legislation.
If half of the proposals for tax
postponements and attachments be-
come laws, the thin trickle of tax
moneys into the state treasury will
become still thinner, and if a 1.-THE
of the ambitious schemes for exper-
iments in social legislation become
part of the Laws of 1888" the
100000 deficit in the state reve-
nue. fund may triple or quadruple
itself.

spelling to "rectangle."

Liberals Weak and Liberals Strong

Liberals Weak and Liberals Strong
There is a riff in the ranks of
the farmer-labor party in the SEN
ate and the conservative rule is
stronger than two years ago. The
minority in the senate, weaker than
in 1881, has been literally recog-
nized with chairmanships and COM
mittee places. In the house the
victorious farmer-labor group, flush
ed with power, ride rough shod over
the conservative opposition. Con-
servation in control of the house
in many sessions have given chair
manships and patronage to the op-
position. It's different now; not a
craftsmanship, not a single item of
patronage do the conservatives get.
Partizan packing of house COM
mittees has never been more fla
grant than this year. On the appro-
priations committee "a Of the 81
members are of the farmer-labor
majority; on banks and banking 10

on public highways % out of 33; on

a theater in Shakespeare's day on a
smaller scale, of course. Max has
labored for three weeks to COM
plete this building. He. stated that

Slow to Start


It takes the legislature two weeks
to get ready. The third week it
gropes around for something to
chew on. It will not be until next
week that the burst of speed, organ
lied the first day; the house COM
pleted it's organization last week
with the naming of committees and
adoption of rules. The money COM
mittees of the senate and house be-
gan last week their heavy and per-
picking task apportioning funds on
which to run the state and at the
same time keeping appropriations
to the minimum. Bills began to
pour in last week and the stream
is running strong. Committees
this week are hard at work on
them.
