BIT IT DOESN'T.
Many Have the Erroneous
Idea that Fat Makes Fat
One Reason of Cod Liver Oil's Popularity
Nevertheless a Decidedly Wrong Im
pression.
Fat taken into the stomach does not niaka
fat. Thousands of physicians have prescribed
cod liver oil for wasting diseases and ali
troubles that show themselves in a decline
ol' weight. Physicians know that the fat or
*rease is not what is necessary to make fat
or tissue. They also know that it is one of
Uie main things that make cod liver oil im
practical in many cases. The fat is too rich
to be digested by a stomach weakened by
disease.
When cod liver oil is given, often the oil
passes from the body in exactly the same
•late in which it is received. The reason doc
tors prescribe cod liver oil is that it contains
certain curative properties. It is to take
advantage of these same curative properties
that they have so often tried to force their
pattents.to take this horrible, greasy, vile
■melllng, nauseating remedy.
There are but few people who have not had
experience in on« way or another with cod
liver oil, and even the thought of its smell is
enowgh to cause a shudder. When we thluk
of these things it is not strange that every
one in our city is sounding the praise of Vi
nol.
Vinol. which Voegell Bros. Drug Co. is han
dling, is the solution of an embarrassing puz
zle that physicians have had to contend with
tor years. -Much has b?en said in the past
few days of this wonderful discovery and yet
it would be impossible to say too much in its
praise.
Vinol, "Wine of Cod Liver Oil, will indeed
prove .itself to be a Godsend of the most pre
cious kind. As we have described it before,
there is no need now of entering into the
subject at length; but just remember that in
Vinol you can procure all the medicinal
properties or curative principles that make
cod liver oil famous, but without the greasy
fat. vlnd contains just the right amount of
the active medicinal properties of the eod'3
liver that is necessary for the cure of such
diseases as cod liver oil has been prescribed
for.
This is a subject that every one should be
come familiar with and we recommend that
you make inquiries of your druggist in re
gard to Vinol, or if you will call on The
Voegeli Bros. Drug Co., who have associated
themselves with the Boston chemists who are
preparing this remedy, they will gladly give
any one all explanations that may be desired
In.regard to this subject.
CLARK AND HIS VICTORY
CHAMPAGNE FLOWED LIKE WATER
All Helena Drank at Millionaire's
Expense—XiK'ht Or&ie in
Celebration.
Special to The Journal.
Helena, Mont., Jan. 17. —The election of
W. A. Clark to the United States senate
was made the occasion at Helena last
night for a celebration probably never
equaled in 'Montana, not even seven years
ago when the town went wild over defeat
ing Anaconda for the capital.
A special train arrived from Butte last
night bringing the Boston and Montana
band and many Butte people. The band
paraded the streets, escorting Clark and
several friends in carriages through dense
crowds, while the air was redolent with
red fire and fireworks and the mountains
rang with bursting bombs.
Clarke made several speeches along the
route, winding up at the Montana club,
where champagne flowed like water. At
the bars of three leading hotels in Helena
and several other saloons drinks were set
out from 8 to midnight at the expense of
the millionaire, and patrons could get any
thing they wanted. Gray haired men and
beardless youths participated in the cele
bration.
Clark has received telegrams of congrat
ulations from United States Senators Ma-
Bon, Jones of Arkansas, Heitfeld, ex-Sen
ator Faulkner. President Mellen of the
Northern Pacific, Sam Hill, and many
others.
KAUFMAN TO THE RESCUE
He Defends the Gront Bill From the
Attacks of ' Ranchmen.
Special to The Journal.
Fargo, N. D., Jan. 17. —Professor E. E.
Kaufman of the state agricultural col
lege, is out in a letter combatting the
opposition to the Grout bill which has
developed among ranchmen in the western
part of the state. The professor is a warm
advocate of the dairy interests and goes
into the matter at considerable length, re
futing the statement, of the ranchmen that
the bill will mean a loss of $2 per head
for them for their cattle. He shows that
at the worst it cannot be over a few cents
—the difference in the price between what
the fat would bring for tallow and the price
it sells for as a component part of but
terine. He states that if there is to be
any favoritism shown, it should be to the
dairymen with their 16,000,000 cattle, rath
er than to the men who raise only 5,000,000
annually for the slaughter houses.

MINNESOTA LEGISLATURE
WHOSE FINE WORK?
State Is Out Two Year's Express
Taxes, 'Tis Said.
THE FIGURES WERE ALTERED
Senator."Sillier Introduces n Joint
'' •'-"""• Resolution i allliiu for an
,". .'■;■/'• Investigation.
Express.companies have escaped a gross
earnings tax - during the past two years,
and there is a desire In many .quarters to
ascertain the Identity of the person or
persons who cameOto, the rescue of; the
express companies and tampered with the
legislative bills.
In the '99 session after a sharp contest,
it was 1 decreed by. both houses that ex
press companies like other interstate pub
lic service concerns should : ray;. a gross
earnings tax of 4& per cent. This was a
compromise, as it was originally proposed
that the tax should be 5 cent.
When the bill reached Governor Lind the
figures "AW had by some occult and still
inexplicable means been transformed into
"5." The bill was signed by the governor
under the j impression- that everything was
regular. But inasmuch as it was an en
tirely different bill from the one passed
by the legislature it was wholly 1 invalidated
and the express companies escaped the
gross earnings " tax. As the . "mistake"
was of great - benefit to the companies it
was generally agreed that it was not whol
ly unintentional. > ■-.;• < ■.. .-_ ■ -~-•-"
The Biennial Investigation.
Senate to-day started investigating the
vestigation of the "express bill" juggling
"express bill" juggling. Senator Miller of
Luverne Introduced a resolution asking for
the appointment of a joint investigating
committee consisting of two members of
the senate and three members of the house.
The committee is to have access to all the
books, papers and records and "Will have the
authority to compel the attendance of any
one desired as a witness. .
It is believed that the house will ap
prove of the plan and will name three
members of the committee in a very few
days.
PASSED TWO BILLS
Senate Get* Down to the Regular
• Grind of the Session.
By passing two bills this morning, the
senate settled down to its regular busi
ness. The first one aside from the usual
expense appropriation, was that of Sena
tor "Johnson providing the public library
boards shall elect secretaries who shall
also look after their moneys. The bill was
given its second and third readings and
passed under suspension. ' An act to help
out lawyers was passed at the request of
Senator Wilson: - It compels the publish
ers to the Minnesota reports to give credit
and references in the Northwestern Re
porter when quoting from its pages. ; •. v^;
At the suggestion of the.judiciary com
mittee William Hodgson of Hastings was
formally elected chief clerk of this com
mittee at $10 per day. 'Its' chairman was
empowered to purchase twenty sets of an
notated statutes. - -: '_,-.:
Senator Grue of Kandiyohi introduced
two insurance bills. One amended a sec
tion relating to town insurance companies,
permitting, them to insure creameries as
well as farm property. - The other, pro-,
vided that members .of mutual companies
were deprived of their rights on failure to
pay premiums or j assessments. The con
tract is to lapse without | notice and the
company may recover the earned premium.
Senator Wilson's bill relating to r log
marks in the second district provides for
the transfer and ■ re-entry of the log
marks, in this district -from the old rec
ords into new books. Log marks are made j
public records. ' . V • r.' -
The Kandiyohi Capitol Lands.
: The fact that Minnesota's capitol was at
bnei time proposed to be "erected in the 1
wilds of Kandiyohi county was again
brought to public • attention by Senator
Grue. He .wants the legislature to pro
vide for the drainage of the state capitol
lands in Kandiyohi, and to lease ;them to
the best advantage. A four-mile ditch in
length, and extending from Lake, Lillian,
Is provided for in his bill. '•■"' ''":.'.,'."■■-.■
Senator Snyder introduced a bill calling
for the creation of a state board of con
trol to manage all the penal reformatories
and charitable institutions of the state.
It is a duplicate of the Torson bill in the
house. .._ '/^ • '- ■ vVc'l-:': '•'-' i ::■•-■ ■' ■"
;. Senator: Thompson wants'; to deprive
I telephone and telegraph companies of their
exclusive privilege of using public high
ways for telephone and telegraph lines. It
frequently becomes * desirable, for \ private
individuals or ; concerns, in .establishing
private telephone lines to make use of the
public | roads, but under the present laws
they are prevented : from doing so. By his
bill private individuals will be. granted the
same rights - and privileges as , telephone

THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUBNAL.
TBIM OFF THE FAT
Hurd's Bill Makes Oil Inspector's
Job Less Desirable.
PUTS IT ON A SALARY BASIS
Fee* of the Department to _ Accrue
' f to the State—More Home •;
Job*.
Included in the bills introduced in ses
sion are to be found many in the interests
of which • the statesmen of two years ago
fought, bled and died. Mr. Hurd of St.
Paul, ,undaunted by the successful oppo
sition in 1889 to the bill of that year plac
ing the office of the state oil inspector
on a salary basis, brought in the measure
this morning. The bill has been modified
in some of its features, but in the main
follows its predecessor. The fees of the
office, or more properly speaking of the
entire department are converted directly
into the general state fund, while there
is a-salary allowance of $2,400 for the chief
inspector. Some appropriation is also
made for the maintenance of the depart
ment.
■The Deming bill, another production of
the morning, grants the taxpayer the
privilege of paying any one year's delin
quency at a time, with the exception of
the earliest year's tax, the year for which
the taxes are sold. As the law now reads
any person entitled to redeem must make
a payment of all delinquences at the samtf
.time. Mr. Deming passed his bill through \
the house last session,. and was only pre*-j
vented from having - final action taken by
the press of business which, marked the i
closing hours of the session. J
The general law requires the surveyor |
of logs and lumber in each district to re- <
port the total number of feet of logs and ;
lumber surveyed in : his ' jurisdiction for
any year. John D. Brady of the Duluth
district this morning presented his • report i
for the year 1900. !

For Popular Discussion.
Senator Fitzpatrick of Winona is quite sure
that, the people of Minnesota are not as well
informed on public matters as they should
be, so he wants the state to establish what
he calls "voting schools" in all election dis
tricts in the state, in order to educate the
people. A bill providing for the establish
ment of such schools was Introduced yester
day as senate file No. 19. It constitutes every
election district in the state an assembly
district and provides that in all cities and
towns the city or town council shall appoint
a suitable person in each of those districts
to arrange for public meetings that shall be
open to every person over 21 years of age
for the discussion of public questions The
committee on education will consider the
merits of the bill.
House Jottings.
The progress made in reclaiming the low
land of northern Minnesota is evident by
the character of the legislation proposed this
session. A bill offered in the house this
morning by Mr. Bean includes an amend
ment to the present law extending to all those
who are assessed for drainage the privilege
of securing a right of way to the main ditch
Mr. Nichols, of Pipestone, believing the
gross earnings tax rated for express compa
nies is not high enough, introduced a bill
increasing it to 6 per cent.
The papers in the contest case of Deering
vs. Schurman were received and filed this
morning.
A report from the committee on legisla
tive expenses provided for the payment of
all temporary employes.
A resolution introduced by Mr. Johnsrud
authorizes the speaker to appoint a custodian
of the capitoi flag at ?3 per diem. This is
a gratuity always voted to some old soldier.

DEMAND FOR IRON
Prospect for Extraordinary Use of
Iron and Steel.
BLAST FURNACE LABOR TROUBLE
Runiors of an Understanding to Pre
vent Destructive Competi
tion in -Steel.
Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 17.—The Iron
Trade Review this week will say:
The prospect of a conflict between blast
furnace operators in the Mahoning and Shen
ango valleys and their employes may become
a factor ot some importance in the situation.
The furnacemen recently decided on a re
duction from |1.90 to Jl.Co. for turn work, and
the employes, at a delegation convention this
week, not only decided to strike in case the
reduction is put in force, but presented a
counter demand for a 10- per cent increase.
The indications are that operations will stop
at all the valley furnaces now in blast, these
including a number of important plants con
nected with steel works. Should such a dead
lock be prolonged the effect would be felt
throughout the central western market.
In the past week there have been consider
able sales of Bessemer iron, prices ranging
from $13.25 to $13.40 at Pittsburg, and when
the deliveries are made in the next two
months stocks in the valleys will be very
materially reduced. However, the large steel
companies will be more and more independent
of merchant supply as the ye*r advance?.
There Is no general buying .movement in
foundry iron as yet, though it is understood
that agricultural and malleable interests have
yet to make considerable purchases. Prices
have been stationary In most markets, with
some tendency to concessions where large
orders are involved. Consumption is heavier
than at any time since early in WOO, but
production is increasing steadily and con
sumers have been counting on lower prices
after ore shipments begin for the new sea
son. The effect of such a strike as that
impending in the two valleys is, of course,
not allowed for in such reckoning.
So far as the prospects for the year can
be judged thus early, there are preparations
in many directions for an extraordinary usa
of iron and steel. Building projects in archi
tects' hands are numerous and in all the
large cities plans are made for the pushing of
murh work that was held up by strikes and
high prices last year. Money to carry out
all such projects is abundant. The rail mills
have brought a fair amount of business since
the year opened, electric lines in the central
west contributing some good orders. In the
Chicago district a 20,000-ton contract for ex
port was booked ia the week.
The announcement that prices on rails
would be ■withdrawn on Jan. 15 may have
hastened some buying, but there is still skep
ticism concerning the reported purpose of the
pool to make as 2 advance Feb. 1. SHHs in
all districts are fully occupied aDd none is
pushing for business. Meantime finished ma
terial markets are rather dull, particularly
in bars, buyers having- so fully provided for
their wants.
The announcement of the Carnegie com
pany's plans for tube mills at Conneaut,
Ohio, while at first received with some in
credulity, is now generally accepted, and in
its wake has come a variety of reports, some
unsettling, while others point to plans for
preventing destructive competition by an ex
tensive application of the community-of-in
terest principle to the steel trade.

BRIDGE AT DDLUTH
Lake Carriers' Association With
draws Its Objection.
FAVORS SEAMEN'S FEDERATION
Thomas W. Kennedy Ia Reappointed
Superintendent of Grain Shov
eling: at Buffalo.
Detroit, Jan. 17.—The Lake Carriers'
association to-day withdrew its objection
to the suspended cable transfer bridge,
which it is proposed to erect at Duluth.
The grain shoveling committee, to which
was referred the handling of the grain
at the elevators at Buffalo for the en
suing year, reappointed Thomas W. Ken
nedy superintendent. This will be con
firmed by the association. The subcommit
tee of four with Captain Edward, Smith
of Buffalo at the head, which took active
charge of the shoveling last year, was
also continued in. offi.ee.
The convention adopted the idea of a
seaman's, federation. Members of this
federation, which will be controlled by
the Lake Carriers' association, will pay
a small portion of their wages into a
beneficiary fund for the sailors. The Lake
Carriers' association will make up any de
f?cit. The Shipmasters' association re
quested that the association take some
action toward compelling shippers to file
a duplicate bill of lading with the cus
toms officer from whom they receive their
clearance papers, with a view of secur
ing more accurate statistics of the ton
nage carried on the lakes. The request
was referred to the committee on aids to
navigation.
A request from a number of flaxseed
shippers that the same bill of lading used
for grain cargoes be used for cargoes of
flaxseed was referred to the executive
committee.
ARTIST FROM THE RANCH
BRIGHT MONTANA GIRL'S SUCCESS
Her Acquaintance With Her New

" '. ""White Mice.'-" '%: "\ \i'; v :
Kmw York Sun Special Servlem :- ■-
New York, Jan. 17.—After seven years of
correspondence, Alfred De Cordova, a ban
ker at 30 Broad street, | living at Sherrys,
taken under his care a ■ western girl
who, he thinks, has the making of an art
ist of first quality.:- She is Miss Georgia
Billings. She comes from a ranch at Creig,
Mont., and at present she is a student at
the ■ art i league, in New York, . where her
tuition is being: paid for by Mr. De Cor
dova. .-. ... .. . i , - ■;•;; .; ■
The story of how the New York banker
and the daughter of a ranchman happened
to hear of each other begins seven years
ago, when the girl was pouring over the
pages of a magazine in her Montana home.
She saw a sketch of Mr. De Cardova in
connection with an article on carrier
pigeons. As she had lotfged for some'of
these birds on the ranch she decided then
and there to make her wish known to the
New Yorker.
She had no money, but she had a collec
tion of white mice which she offered to
trade. Mr. De Cordovan declined the offer
of white mice but sent the pigeons as a
gift. The result was a regular correspon
dence, and once or twice the girl enclosed
pen sketches which Mr. Cordovan thought
showed indications of talent.
Mr. and Mrs. Cordovan then got the
permission of the girl's parents to allow
her to come to New York. Frederick Rem
ington pronounced her sketches wonder*
fully good. Miss Billings was thereupon
placed in the best art school in the city,
and she is astonishing the local art world
with her skill. Miss Billings, besides hav
ing a genius for drawing, has written a
number of sketches and short poe^ms which
have been accepted by the magaaines.

TO TAX THE RED MAN
Issue Reaches the United States
Court at Sioux Falls.
ROBERTS COUNTY,S.D.,CONCERNED
Government Contends That Taxation
and Levy Are Illegal—The
County's Side.
Special to The Journal.
Sioux Falls, S. D., Jan. 17.—Judge Car
land, of the United States court, yesterday
listened to arguments in the case recently
instituted toy W. G. Porter, assistant
United States attorney, against the au
thorities of Roberts county to determine
the legality of state and county authori
ties assessing and taxing inmrovements
upon land allotted to Indians of the Sisse
ton and Wahpeton tribe. The suit was
instituted against James A. Rickert, treas
urer of Roberts county.
The authorities of the county assessed
and taxed the improvements belonging to
Indians, and Id default of payment the
treasurer recently seized and was about to
sell for taxes the property thus levied
upon. The suit wae instituted to prevent
this, and a perpetual injunction restrain
ing the county and state authorities from
assessing and taxing property of Indians
in future was applied for.
In the hearing the United States was
represented by Assistant Attorney Porter,
and A. B. Kittredge appeared and made
the argument in behalf of the authorities
of Roberts county.
The substance of the argument upon
which the government defended its action
was that as •the title to the allotments is
held in trust for the Indians by the gov
ernment for a period of twenty-flve years,
and the property attempted to be taxed
was issued to the Indiana by the govern
ment, the action of the Roberts county
authorities in assessing and taxing it was
illegal, unjuat, without authority of law
and In utter and total violation of the
statutes of the United States.
It was contended by Mr. Kittredge in
behaif of the county authorities that the
property belonged to the Sisseton and
Wahpeton Indians, who have renounced
tribal relations and taken lands in sever
alty and who ha*-e become full citizens of
the state, can be taxed unless immunity
from taxation has been expressly provided
them by some constitution, statute, act or
treaty, and that such immunity had never
been granted these Indians.
It was further contended that the gov
ernment, by issuing to these Indians trust
patents, has given the state authorities
the full right to tax the lands and im
provements thereon, as the holdings in
trust of the title to the allottments for a
period of twenty-flve years is for the sole
purpose of preventing the Indians from
selling the land during that period.
Assistant Attorney Porter contended
that an express provision by statute or
otherwise exempting the property of In
dians from taxation is not necessary, as
the title to the allottments, by being held
in trust by the government, is vested in
the United States during the trust period

of twenty-flve years, and is therefor© not
subject to taxation.
Many other interesting and important
points were touched upon in the argu
ments, and numerous authorities were
cited in support of the contentions of each
side.
The case is of the utmost importance,
for, should the action of the Roberta
county authorities be sustained, a vast
amount of property belonging to Indians—
not only the Sissetons and Wahpetons,
but the Yankton Sioux and other tribes
as well —which has not heretofore been
taxed, would be subject to taxation in fu
ture.
Judge Carland's decision is awaited with
great interest by those concerned.
