TO HEAD OFF DULUTH
Resolution In the Wisconsin
Legislature Regarding the
Altamonte Canal.
WOULD BE TOO ADVANTAGEOUS
Several Other Important Meas
ures Brought Before Bad
ger Solons.
Milwaukee, Jan. 24. —A special to
The Wisconsin from Madison, Wis., says
Mr. Mills presented a petition in the
senate calling upon congress to suspend
action for the present on the bill of the
Altamonte Power company, for a fran
chise to dam the St. Louis river. It is
intended to head off a scheme that will
give Duluth a decided advantage as a
manufacturing town over Superior.
Senator Timme introduced a bill to
change the law relating to the office of
labor commissioner, so as to do away
with the contingent fund and to allow
the commissioner only his actual ex
pesses.
In the assembly a large number of pe
titions and bills were introduced. A
bill by Mr. Boncel, provides that every
owner of a homestead shall be entitled
an estate of a homestead to the value of
$5,000 in land and buildings which shall
be exempt from seizure. The exemp
tion extends to the famiiy on his death,
or if he deserts them, and it applies to
the proceeds of the sale of a hometead.
NELSON ELECTED.
Minnesota's Governor Receives a Majority
on the First Ballot.
St. Paul, Jan. 24.—Governor Nelson
of Minnesota has been elected United
States senatoi' to succeed Senator Wash
bum, whose term expires March 4. This
result was obtained on first joint ballot.
The vote was as follows:
Nelson 102 Donnelly 13
Washburn 36 Mitchell 4
McCleary 9 Lind 1
Total vote cast on joint ballot 167
After the vote was counted Nelson
was declared elected.
Rejoicing in Chicago.
Chicago, Jan. 24.—There was much
rejoicing on the board of trade when it
was announced that Senator Washbum
of Minnesota, the anti-optionist, had
been defeated for re-election.
WANT CONFEDERATION.
Newfoundland Now Willing to Join Hand*
With Canada.
St. Johns, N. F., Jan. 24.—Confeder
ation is the main topic of conversation
here. The government will send a del
egation to Canada immediately to ne
gotiate terms. The delegation is likely
to consist of Premier Greene. ex-Premier
Whiteway and ex-Colonlul Secretary
Bond. The legislature is expected to
submit the question to a plebescite in
May, when it is almost certain to be
carried. Sir William Whiteway is said
to be striving to obtain the lieutenant
governorship on condition that he advo
cates confederation.
THE HAYWARD DEFENSE.
It Will Evidently Try to Throw the Guilt
on Adry’s Shoulders.
Minneapolis, Jan. 24.—The crowd
present at the opening of the Hayward
trial was not so large. A new batch of
jurors was on hand, and the business of
the day was opened with a statement to
these jurors of the nature of the case.
The plan of defense to be adopted by
Hayward’s lawyers is gradually becom
ing apparent. No one believes that an
attempt will be made to prove Harry
Hayward insane, but instead, the
opinion now prevails that the effort will
be to prove Adry Hayward guilty
of the very crime, with which, in his
confession, he has charged his brother.
The defense, it is believed, will attempt
to show that Blixt is insane, and that
while his confessions are true state
ments of facts as to the way in which
the crime was committed and incited,
the man who engaged him to do this
work was Adry and not Harry Hay
ward. Blixt’s behavior in the jail—now
frantically fearful and again fearlessly
confident, will be used to show that
the man is not well balanced mentally,
and impeach him as a witness.
One more juror was secured. His
name is John Smith and he is a black
smith.
Resubmission Bill In Maine.
Augusta, Me., Jan. 24.—A sensation
was sprung in the house by Mr. Patton
of Bath, who presented a bill embody
ing the resubmission proposition so long
discussed, and by the Prohibitionists so
strenuously objected to. The bill is
very short, simply providing for the sub
mission of the prohibition question to
the people at the next election, to be
voted on by yes and no ballot.
Bondsmen Will Be Sued.
Yankton, S. D , Jan. 24.—The county
commissioners, after a struggle lasting
several weeks, finally disposed of
County Treasurer Max’s deficiency of
$1,219 by instructing 'the state’s attor
ney to sue bondsmen. •
Legislature Condemns Cleveland.
Indianapolis, Jan. 24.—A resolution
passed the lower house of the Indiana
legislature condemning President Cleve
land's foreign policy. The resolution
was adopted by a strict party vote.
Pannell Acquitted.
St. Paul, Jan. 24.—Ed Pannell, the
mail carrier charged with using can
celled stamps, was acquitted by a jury
in the United States court.
Glenwood Will Incorporate.
GlenAood, Wis,, San. 24.—At a
mass meeting of citizens it was decided
to proceed L.- c diately towards the in
corporation of Glenwood as a city.
IT LOOKS WARLIKE.
Mexico Notifies Guatemala That Her De
mand* Must lie Conceded.
City or Mexico, Jan. 24.—After a
very stormy cabinet meeting President
Diaz notified Guatemala, through its
minister, that he would not oonoede one
iota, and that Guatemala would have to
give in to Mexico's demand or suffer the
consequences. Other Central American
representatives here, at a meeting, made
the statement to President Dias that
they understood Mexico was trying to
grasp Central American territory.
President Diaz denied the assertion, and
stated that Mexico would have her
rights and the boundaries should be as
Mexico claims, and that Mexico had all
the territory she needed. It looks as
though the other Central American re
publics
Were Behind Guatemala.
All the government students are
marching in the streets with bands,
shouting “Viva Mexico,” “Viva Diaz”
and “On to Guatemala.” They are now
in front of the palace from 12,000 to 15,-
000 strong, clamoring for war and
pledging their support to President
Diaz. They are mainly composed of
students of the lawj (tanning and medi
cal schools. All the officers that have
not been on active duty have been noti
fied to report for marching orders.
President Diaz made a speech to the
parading students and others, stating
that he would not recede from Mexico’s
just rights. The answer to Mexico’s
final ultimatum is to be received here on
the 24th, but President Diaz has notified
Guatemala that he will not recede from
the original demands and both coun
tries are preparing for war.
THE CHILDREN BARRED.
Decision of Land Officials Regarding Half
Breed Children.
Chamberlain, S. D., Jan. 24.—The
United States land office officials in this
city have just received from the com
missioner of the general land office un
der date of Jan. 14, instructions as to
the status of children of Indian women

tary Sims, are not entitled in their own
right to any tribal property or privileges
whatever except suoh as they may take

She Had Great Hope*.
Norwalk, Conn., Jan. 24.—Rev.
Frank Robbins, pastor of the Norwalk
Baptist church, received a visit from
Harvey I. Brewer and Mrs. Martin
Straw, who asked him to marry them.
Mr. Robbins was surprised as Mrs.
Straw’s husband died but four months

bands and says she will outlive this one.

STATE LEGISLATURE
TWENTY-NINTH BIENNIAL SESSION
Wednesday, Jan. 10.
SENATE —The bill appropriating $20,-
000 to be expended in affording relief to
the sufferers from the Hinckley fire was
passed under a suspension of the rules.
A joint resolution committing Minne
sota’s congressional representatives to op
position to the pooling bill now pending
in the United States senate was intro
duced and temporarily sent to the railroad
committee.
Before the senate adjourned at the ex
piration of its morning session Lieutenant
Governor Clough announced that if it
pleased the members to hold an afternoon
session he should be ready to announce
the regular standing committees. The
offer was not accepted, however, and an
adjournment was had until 10 a. m.
HOUSE—Nineteen bills and a resolu
tion were introduced in the house. The
resolution was by Mr. Feig and provides
for the appointment of an expert account
ant to investigate into the reports and
charges that certain officials who have
been entrusted with the custody of public
funds have received interest thereon from
the institutions and others with whom the
money was deposited.
The rules were suspended and senate
file No. 11, appropriating S2O,QpO for the
relief of fire sufferers was passed. It now
goes to the governor for his signature.
Thursday, Jan. 17.
SENATE—The standing committees of
the senate were announced by President
Clough. The distribution of the chair
manship plums has been awaited with
much anxiety by the members, and when
it occurred a general sense of relief and
gratification was apparent, for, while
everyone did not receive all he desired,
there was a general recognition that the
distribution of favors was as fair as any
thing couli be.
Fifteen bills of more or less importance
were introluced and referred to the ap
propriate committees.
HOUSE —Speaker Van Sant announced
his committees atrthe morning session.
They are generally conceded to be fairly
made up. A number of doorkeepers,
pages and minor employes were also
named.
Ten house files were introduced and re
ferred to committees.
The house then adjourned for the day. t
Mr. Hendricks introduced H. F. No. 44,
which provides for the reduction of tha
legal rate of interest from 8 to 6 per cent,
and the contract rate from 10 to 8 per cent.
Friday, Jan. 18.
HOUSE—The house held a brief session.
The committee on legislative expenses
reported and the policy of strict economy
was strongly endorsed. If the members
can only manage to carry out their good
resolutions to the end, this legislature will
be the least expensive that has met in
Minnesota in many a day.
Representative Henry Feig called up his
sensational resolution on the inquiry into
the condition of the financial institutions
of the state by a committee of five repre
sentatives, and carried the question
through by a unanimous vote despite the
introduction of a substitute resolution
and various objections as to the expense
whicn might be incurred by such an inves
tigation. To clinch the passage of the
resolution Mr. Feig moved to reconsider
and to lay the reconsideration on the
table, and this, too, was voted through by
a large majority.
SENATE.—The senale session was brief
and uneventful. Among the bills intro
duced was one by Senator Masterman
amending the law providing for designa
tion of state depositories. The amend
ment provides that the designation of
state depositories shall be made by a board
of audit, consisting of the governor of
the state, state auditor, secretary of state
and attorney general. When the state
funds are thus deposited the state treas
urer is relieved from liability on his bond
so far as the depository of funds is con
cerned.
Saturday, Jan. 19.
The house held a brief session in the
morning at which a few bills were intro
duced. The senate was not in session.
The house adjourned over to Tuesday
morning.
Monday, Jan. 20.
The senate was in session for an hour
during the afternoon. A few bills of
minor importance were introduced.
Tuesday, Jan. 22.
SENATE—The senate proceedings prior
to voting on United States senator, were
rather tame. Several bills dealing with
matters of general public interest are
known to be prepared and ready for pre
sentation, but they are being withheld un
til the excitement relating to the election
shall have abated sufficiently to enable
them to receive what their authors con
sider their proper share of notice and dis
cussion. Leveral bills of less importance
were introduced.
The vote for United States senator in
the senate was as follows:
Washbum 22 McCleary 1
Nelson 17 Pillsbury 1
Donnelly 5 Comstock 3
McHale 2 Mitchell, Wm.... 1
Dickinson,D. A.. 1 Total 53
HOUSE.—The morning session of the
house was mainly taken up in acting upon
the reports of the committee on legisla
tive expenses and the introduction of bills.
The policy of economy of the Republican
members was maintained and a number
of applicants for positions were turned
down. There were 18 bills introduced
during the session. The most important
among them were: To provide for revi
sion of statutes; to prohibit wrongful
practices and neglect of duty by state offi
cers or employes; to regulate the sale of
patent medicines.
At noon the house ballotted for United
States senator, the vote being as follows:
Washburn 32 Donnelly 7
Nelson 45 McCleary 7
Comstock 11 Tawney, 1
McHale 9 Buckham 1
Total number of votes cast, 113.

Heart Disease 30Yrs!
Short Breath, Palpitation.
Mr. G. W. McKinsey, postmaster of
Kokomo, Ind., and a brave ex-soldier,
says: “I had been severely troubled
with heart disease ever since leaving
the army at the close of the late war.
I was troubled with palpitation and
shortness of breath. I could not
sleep on my left side, and had pain
around my heart. 1 became so ill
that I was much alarmed, and for
tunately my attention was called to
Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure
I decided to try it. The first bottle
made a decided improvement in my
condition, and five bottles have com
pletely cured me.”
G. W. McKINSEY, P. M., Kokomo, Ind
Dr. Miles Heart Cure is sold on a positive
guarantee that the first bottle will benefit.
All druggists sell it at sl, 6 bottles for<Bs, or
