mmm to imm SECRKTAKYSHH* OK TKK SKXATK GOBS TO THE KDiTOii FROJI PRESTON MARTIN TO BE PROVIDED FOR He Will Be Mailo Clerk of the Sen ate Judiciary Committee This Makes tlie Hep .ib.icni- .'nuenses nf Today anil ToaiKhl Practically t'nt nnd I>rleil Affair Tomorrow Will See the Or^juiiint lon. Samuel A. T.angum. cf Preston, will be the next secretary of the senate, ancl James A. Martin, of S_. Cloud, will be secretary of the senate jud.ciu ry committee. 'lhis solution of the fight for the secretaryship of the sen ate was arrived at* at a conference held by ihe frie: ds of Langum and Martin last evening at the Windsor. The action of the Hennepin delega tion Friday in throwing the balance of strength to l.angum retiied W. E. Verity from the contest ar.d practical ly bi ought matters to a climax. Dow ling had already withdrawn, and this left Van Duzee the only other candi date. Under these circumstances, the managers of the l.angum and Martin forces made a count of noses, and the result was the conference held la?t night. The Martin people found that they had to contend with a strong feeling against the Sixth district candidate, on the grounds that the Sixth district already had coi railed the speakership and had candidates for the most de sirable of the senate plums. The ge ography of the situation was all in favor of Langum, and it was found that he had inherited the greater part of Dowling's strength. When all these facts had been dem onstrated, the friends of Langum and Martin met and arranged that Lan- ' ' ' "'-'■■■ ' ■'■■!■. Mlg'jjH.jl ■■ .. .;.«U.I. ~ M. A. LANGtM, Who Has Been Mutually Agreed Upon for Clerk of the Senate. gum should have the secretaryship of the senate, and that Martin should have the secretaryship of the judiciary committee, a position for which he is exceptionally well fitted, as a gradu ate of Ann Arbor and one of the lead ing attorneys at the Steams county bar. In a measure, the outcome is a vic tory for Martin, who came into the fight from the country, heretofore un heard of, and by excellent general ship attained the position of leading candidate, which he held for a week and might have successfully maintain ed, had not the well-intended, but dis astrous, acts of one of his friends brought about a combination of his opponents. "Mai tin's friends might still have put up a- strong fight, even in the face of the present condition," said Alvah Eastman, of St. Cloud, who has been one of the leading Martin supporters, last night. "We might, however, have endangered a sectional fight that would have been unpleasant, and we preferred the compromise. I am sure that Martin will make a very accepta ble secretary of the judiciary com mittee, as he is well fitted by his training for the position." * * * W. H. Anderson, of Mankato, who is a candidate for the position of post master of the house, was at the Wind sor last evening in the interest of his candidacy. Mr. Anderson is one of the hard Republican workers of the south ern part of the state and has the back ing of Representatives Gutterson, Ny quist and Argetsinger. * » * Rev. W. W. Lewis, of the Atlantic Congregational church, is a candidate for chaplain of the senate. * * » The settlement of the Martin-Lan gum fight so simplifies matters in the senate that there is little likelihood of a serious conflict in the caucus to night, in tha: branch of the legislature at least. Fred Van Duzee, the only other candidate for the secretaryship, has declared that he wants nothing, as he was in the contest for the secre taryship only. A. D. Countryman, of Appleton, a constituent of Senator E. T. Young, will no doubt be the first assistant clerk and secretary, and W. D Smith of Blue Earth City, second assistant. ' The engrossing clerkship is not ab solutely settled. The Langum people have all along been favorable to Sen ator Ryder, of Polk, who has a candi date for the place, Prof. A. B. Christy- Ryder was a little tardy in clamber ing on the band wagon, but may save his distance today. Victor Shallen, of Little Falls, is to get the enrolling clerkship. W. P. Dunnington, of Redwood Falls, will be sergeant-at-arms, and Thomas Downs., of Minneapolis, assistant. St. Paul not having anything that far in the senatorial distribution tends to boom the chances of Rev. W. W. Lew is, of the Atlantic Congregational church. Rev. William Wilkinson, of Minneapolis, has been making a can vass for the place, but has been treat ed with some frigidity by the members of his own delegation. Duluth wanted the chaplaincy for Rev. Robert Forbes, of that city, but will probably not op pose Lewis. Henry Burkhardt, of Wabasha, is to be file clerk. * • • In the house no opposition has yet developed to Israel Bergstrom for chief clerk. O. K. Dahle, of Spring Valley, seems to be cinched for the flrst assistant clerkship, and C. Berg huis, of Clara City, has the support of J. F. Jacobson for the second place E F. Beck, of St. Paul, is slated for enrolling clerk, and N. H. Ingersoll, •f Brainerd, for engrossing clerk. J. M. Bayer, of Moorhead, will mak« a fight to wrest from Ed Fanning, of. Stewartvllle, h^s former assistant, the place of Eergeant-at-arms, but Pan ning seems to have the lead. There are four candidates for the place of as sistant. Editor B. A. Nelson, of Hal lock, stards a good show, although Bayer, Strain ar.d Wellman will prob ably combine forces in an effort to de feat him. Strain, however, is handi- j capped by the fact that he has been up several limes and has enjoyed the patronage of the party liberally. * * * The following is a copy of a bill the passage of which will be urged by petftions now being circulated in all parts of the state: A bill providing pension to teachers In rum! schools. Be it enacted by the legislature of the state of Minnesota: Section 1.

A detective was formerly paid a good salary by the keeper of a big hotel in Hot Springs, Ark., to lounge in the lobby and listen to the complaints and criticism of guests. There is always a feeling of friendliness and comrade ship between gue3ts of a hotel, and this detective made it his business to be come acquainted with all the visitors They thought he was a fellow guest The detective would lead the conversa tion to the merits or demerits of the hotel, and if a man complained of the service or his accommodations tho complaint was promptly reported to the landlord. F ? r V. in f._ an J ce ' if a gueat complained that he liked to sleep in the morning and he could not do it because he had a room with an east exposure, so tbat the sun cam^ in and awakened him the detective reported it to the landlord.* In a little while the landlord would say to the guest: "I was thinking this morning about jou in that east room. Do you like to sleep late in the morning?" The guest would say that he did. 'Well," the landlord would say "I was thinking that you did, and in that case the sun must disturb you. I will give- you a better room on the north side of the house." That made the guest a friend of the house for life. A man never forgets him takeS an inter< *t in The detective found but what nar ali U the r .r d ho h hh S f the *, UCSts en^ d ™* o a a r ,£ obble s a^d notions and likes n? «mL 81 k ? 8 ' and the 'landlord acted that th. 1, for,nat,on - £ paid so w *" that the house was full all the time ftte ora_i andlord ' S Salary waTktaS!
