HOLD A JOINT MEETING Favor a Junket But There Is Strong Objection to Appropriations for Expenses. St. Paul, Minn., Feb. 4, 1909.— (Special to Pioneer.)—A joint meet- ing of the state normal committee of the house and the senate convened this afternoon at 3 o'clock for the purpose or considering the proposi- tion to send a junket committee to visit the different towns which are aspirants for the location of the proposed sixth normal school. It is the intention of the movers members taken from the house com- committee who wiil make the trip. The supporters of the Hind’s general bill want to get the entire member- ship of both committees to make the trip if it is eventually taken. There is a well defined sentiment in favor of not allowing an appropriation to pay the exvenses of this committee, and it is more than likely that if the committee decides on going up north that they will not be allowed their expenses by the legislature. As it now stands, it looks as though the committee would make the trip, and they have been offered their expenses by the supporters of Cass Lake. —A. G. Rutledge. Inspected Poor System. Messrs. Cloe and Anderson, two of the board of county commissioners of Kitson county, spent yesterday afterncon in this city inspecting the former county system o} caring for the poor. Kitson county is considering the proposition of purchasing a poor farm and these two members have been inspecting the different systems of taking care of the poor in several different counties.

St. Paul, Feb. 4.—(Special to Pioneer.)—County option was most effectually killed in the house this morning, when the house, by vote of seventy-three to forty-four, voted to indefinitely postpone the bill for county option in Minnesota. Ata meeting of the temperance committee held Tuesday night the committee, by a vote of ten to five, decided to report in favor of killing the bill, In the house today the majority report to indefinitely postpone the bill was accompanied by a minority report recommending the passage of the bill. The amendment rec- ommending the passage of the bill was defeated by a decisive vote, after which the original motion to indefinitely postpone prevailed, and county option is dead in the legis- lature for this season. A. G. Rutledge. Tom Shevlin Married. A special telegram from Louis- ville,Ky.,to the Minneapolis Tribune tells of the marriage of Tom Shev- lin, Jr., to Miss Sherley, as tfollows: “Louisville, Feb. 2.—(Special.)— The wedding of Miss Elizabeth Brannin Sherley and Thomas Shev- lin of Minneapolis, solemnized yes- terday afternoon at 2 o’clock ih the rectory of the bishop’s chapel of St. Mary Magdalene’s church, was simple and quiet. There were but two witnesses, Mrs. brannin Sher- ley, mother of the bride, and Mrs. Dennis Shanahan, Mrs, Sherley’s sister. The ceremony was performed by Father William Gausphol. The | bride wore a traveling coat suit. “Mr. and Mrs. Shevlin left last night for Chicago where they will remain for several days before going on to Minneapolis to be the guests of Mr. Shevlin’s family, ~ They are expected to return to Louisville in March to pay a short visit to Mrs. -Sherley before gning to housekeep- ing in Minneapolis.” Weekley Sleigh Rides. The Bemidji Lodge of Rebekahs held a regular meeting last evening at which the following five candi- dates were initiated: Magis Phil- lippi, Mrs. Frank Wagner, Mrs. Charles Schreeder, Miss Florence Weekly and Miss Carrie Hiyden. The local lodges of Rebekahs and Odd Fellows have planned weekly sleigh rides for the balance of the winter which. will be held every Thursday eyening. Tonight they will ride out to Cassler’s farm, a few miles southwest of this city and next week a trip will be made to Buena Vista, seventeen miles north of Bemidji Billiard Tournament. Interest is steadily growing in the Bemidji Billiard Tournament and the outcome of the games each even- ing are being eagerly watched by the local manipulators of the cue. " A. L. Wyler and J. F. Boss played Tuesday night, the former being handicapped 100 to 85. Mr. Boss won by a score of 85 to 93. Mr, Wyler and W. J.

G. club to attend this affair, | Miller where they. held a very profif » able meeting, the chief feature of which was to make final arrange- ments for the sale which they are planning to hold in connection with a good supper on Tuesday, Feb. 16, in the City Hall.

Probable That They Will Cost Sixty Thousand Dollars Each—All Dairy Cattle Must Be Tested. St. Paul, Feb. 3.—Five new agr{cul» tural schools will be recommended by the senate committee on agriculture and horticulture, in a committee bill providing for schools to be located at Dodge Center, Windom, Foley, Mar- shall and Hutchinson. It is probable that the schools will cost $60,000 each. There are already three agricultural schools in the state, and it is the in- tention of the committee ultimately to establish one in each congressional district in order to secure federal aid for the schools. After an extended hearing on Sen- ator J. W. Wright’s bill requiring the tuberculin testing of all dairy cattle in the state the senate committee on dairy products agrecd to recommend the Dhill to pass with an amendment as'to the time the measure is to take effect. Under the present law, cattle of the state may be tested and are required {to be in the larger and some of f.!le smaller cities. C.J. Swanson of Frid- ley, chairman of a committee to look into the tuberculin test, brought in a I report several days ago signed by him- | self alone, intimating that the tuber- culin test failed to reveal tuberculosis as claimed. It was shown by reports at the hear- ing that the unsuspected cattle which Senator Swanson caused to be placed in a lot of condemned animals were condemned for emaciation and not | tuberculosis, as was intimated in his report to the legislature. { Interfere With the Test. Statements were made by several of the veterinarians that the poorer class of farmers often interfere with. the efficiency of the test by injecting their cattle before a visit of a veterinarian. A mnormal school in the northern part of the state is in sight. The senate committee decided to recom- mend that a school be established. If ihe house agrees, a committee will be appointed, composed of four senators land five representatives, to determine which of six towns shall have the school: Bemidji, Thief River Falls, Park Rapids, Cass Lake, Wadena and ‘Warren. The house is deadlocked on the general bill and the Cass Lake lo- cation. Professor J. A. Hay of Thief River Falls, Professor A. P. Ritchie and E. E. McDonald of Bemidji spoke for the general bill. They showed that a ter- ritory as large as the combined area of New Jersey, Connecticutt, Massa- chusetts, Rhode Island and Delaware, with 200,000 people, 36,000 school children and 2,000 teachers is without normal school facilities. Only 4 per cent of the teachers have any normal school training as opposed to 60 per cent of the whole state. The sale of green pears, bananas, hay and apples and all other vegeta- bles and fruit by the pound instead of measure is contemplated in a bill by J. W. Pauly of Minneapolis introduced in the senate. The judiciary committee will recom- mend Senator Sullivan’s bill for a legislative reference bureau to pass. This will be in charge of the attor- ney general. % To Investigate Prices Paid for Wheat. Representative N. J. Holmberg of Renville introduced and had passed a resolution for a committee to investi- ‘wheat. buyers pay 5 to 10 cents less for this wheat than for blue stem and grind it into flour which sells for the same price as other flour. T. J. Brady of St. Paul introduced a resolution to have the governor and staff, seven representatives and five senators go to Washington for the in- auguration of Taft. The house joked \with the resolution a while and then buried it in the rules committee. A bill requiring judges of the su- preme, district and municipal courts to report to the legislature any errors or incongruities in the laws of the state was the most radical among the bills introduced in the house. An- drew Anderson of Lakeland was the author. 5 Carl Wallace of Minneapolis offered a bill appropriating $500,000 for a site and Dbuilding for the library and mu- seum of the state historical soclety. Other bills were one by C. J. Swend- sen of St. James for the appointment of a dairy inspector in cities of 10,000 or less; one by the same author re- quiring an annual inspection of the books of officers of cities of the fourth class, the examination to be made by the public examiner when requested and paid for by the county; a bill by Henry Rines of Moro providing for the separate assessment of surface rights, rights to minerals and coal and oil rights when there is separate own- ership, and 2 bill by J. J. Opsahl of Beniidji, which provides that petitions for the change of county seats shall be sent to the secretary of state in-| stead of the “board, - gate the prices paid for velvet chaf |. His resolution said that the |. BEST TREATMENT FOR CROUP SUDDEN, SEVERE ATTACKS ARE OF FREQUENT 0C- - CURRENCE. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy a Certain Cure---Has Never Been Known to Fail. If yourchild has ever had croup, youneed no description of the symptoms, bt to the inexperienced, the peculiar ringing congh is often unnoticed until the disease is well un- der way. A child may go to bed at night in his usual health, except perhaps a cold, only to awaken a few hours later with a well de- veloped attack of croup and the remainder of the night is spent by the anxious parents in trying to relieve his suffering, which is usually more or less experimental. It is usually difficult to secure the services of a physician in the middle of the night, and he should never be depended upon as the case must be treated at once. A bottle of Cham- berlain’s Congh Remedy in the house will save anxiety, expense and perhaps the life of the child. When this medicine is given at the first indication of croup, the attack may be avoided, and even after the croupy cough has appeared, it will prevent the at- tack. We have never known it to fail to effect a cure in any case of croup, and it is, we believe, in more general use in the United States for that disease than any other remedy.
