HOUSE PASSES TWO- FIFTHS JURY BILL Will Now Go to Senate For Consid- eration—Silencers Prohibited on NEW CLASSIFICATION PROPOSED L. C. Spooner Introduces Measure Containing Tax Ideas Outlined in His Recent Campaign. INITIATIVE: AND- REFERENDUM House Committee on Eleotions Wants it as' Amendment No. 1 on Next State Ballot. By United Press. St. Pl‘ul, Minn., Jan. 24.—Since Friday is generally regarded as the end of the week’s session. by legisla- tors, it 18 not probable that today will be productive in.the matter of new legialation. The révival of the “seven senator” agitation in the Senate; the adoption of a resolution by Sen. S. D. Works, Mankato, to investigate the fees. of the state architect; the sefting of next Thursday as.the time for passing on Sen. J. P. Boyle’s anti-tubercu- loals bill,and the introduction of a dozen measures of local or minor im- ‘portance, constituted practically all of the business transacted.in the sen- ate Thursday. . In the house, the passage of two bills, one providing that a five-sixths Jury verdict is sufficient in civil cases, and the other prohibiting the use of “sllencers” on fire-arms, constituted the only actual results accomplished. The ibglance of the session, was taken up w}(\h the introduction of bills, New: Classification Bill. Of the bills introduced dn the lhouse, probably the most important ne is L. C. Spooner, Morris, who pro- poses a reclassification of real and personal property. This was one of the measures he advocated during his gubernatorial campaign last fall. Seven classes of real estate and personal property are prescribed by the bill, as follows: 1. Minerals in the ground to be assessed at 50 per cent of the true valuation. . 2. Unplatted real estate, used for agricultural purposes, including tim- ber lands, at. 33 1-2 per cent. 3. Real estate and dwellings, con- stituting the homestead of ‘the own- er. 26 per cent. 4. Al other real estate at 50 per cent. 6. Household: furniture at 20 per cent. 6. Merchandise stocks at 25 per cent. Mr. Spooner is also the author of a bill which carries an appropriation of $50,000 for a survey from Lake Su- perior to St.- Paul, the purpose of which is to investigate the feasabil- ity of a canal between these points. The seven senator proposition came up by means of a joint resolution of- fered by Senators Moonan, Duxbury, Weiss, Putnam, Marden and Hay- craft. It directed the. reapportion- ment committee. to incorporate a clause in any proposed reapportion- ment bill to limit the number of sen- ators in any one county to seven. It was laid on the table for one day, on notice of debate being given by Sen. Victor Johnson, Center City, chairman of the reapportionment committee. It is not likely that it will amount to any more than stirring up the same issue which was before the vot- ers last fall, in the guise of a pro- posed constitutional amendment, which failed of ratification, although it was carried in all but four coun- ties. ~ o Initiative and Referendum : Initiative and referendum will be Amendment No. 1 on the ballot at the election a year from next autumn, it the house committee on elections has its way. The judiciary committee would like to have this coveted posi- tion taken by the amendment provid- ing for an increase to seven in the justices of the supreme court. This amendment will be reported today. The subcommittee on initiative and referendum has completed its bill, and {8 expected to present it to the whole elections committee today. It follows, in part, the Ohio planm, taving the split initiative. Three per cent of the voters may petition the legislature ops & law, the text ©f which shall be set forth in the pe- MINISTER OF WAR IS ASSASSINATED Nazim Pasha, Former Commander of The Turkish Army, Killed Dur- 5 ing Demonstration.

The articles provide that the annual meeting shall be held in December of each year in Bemidjl. Bemidji was selected as the]. place for the annual meetings at the conterence - held in Crookston last|. December. By the articles of incor- poration, Bemidji is assured of "at least one meeting a year.

Whether this means war to the fin- ish with the “Young Turks” in the saddle or merely is another exhibi- tion of the resources of Turkish di- plomacy none can say. The allies’ delegates received the news whwu expressions of anger. Some declared that the Constantinople coup was prearranged and that Shefket Pasha did not participate in the grand council because he knew he would succeed Kiamil Pasha. -~ <] Yesterday a vast crowd at Constan- 4 | willing to help Beltrami county. 5 “ ngx.l;o;%{sloe;‘fn?fi?;, D BN R Mr. Gerge-ius salistenthe &id of| (Copyrignts e shot dead during the demonstrations ors this week at the rooms of % |the hgovernor..
