Two years ago the number was 1,174 for the same time. John McGrath of Barnesville intro- duced a bill giving wives, children and other dependents the right to sue saloonkeepers and their sureties for any damage they may suffer, either to their person, property or by loss of support caused by their husbands or supporters being drunk.

The maximum interest is 2 per cent per month, The state auditor is allowed to sell state land to the state board of con- trol for state institutions, under a bill by H. P. Webb of Sandsone.

To take the place of. the Cashman distance tariff bill, which the senate killed the other day, a bill was intro- duced yesterday permitting the rail- road commission to issue orders for preferential rates on coal and lum- ber and other articles which enter the manufacture of products. This will, in a measure, accomplish the same result as was sought in the Cashman bill. Senator Thorpe introduced a Dill cutting the governor’s salary from $7,000 to $5,000. The legislature last session raised the governor's salary to $7,000. Senators with gubernato- rial ambitions voted for the bill, not knowing that the constitution barred any member of the legislature voting for a salary raise in any state office from holding such office until one year after the expiration of his term as a legislator.

Olson of Douglas county and William Foreman of Wabasha county their ex- | penses in the contests they started to get into the legislature, the house yes- terday put its disapproval on the long- continued practice of paying the bills of candidates who start contests when they are defeated by a close vote. The bills of the winners in the contests were chopped down consid- erably. ‘ The bill providing for a seventh judge in Ramsey county was defeat- ed. The naturopathic examiners’ bill | was killed by a vote of 83 to 24.

The bill will go into effect as soon as it is, signed by the governor. The bill does not absolute- ly prohibit giving trading stamps, but requires stamps to have their value printed on their face, and makes un- lawful the present method of compell- ing the women to lick a whole book full of stamps before they can get any presents, a The house yesterday failed to pass the so-called Leavett bill.

The bill carries an appropriation of $50,000 for the next two years, enough for ten schools each year, The passage of this meas- ure commits the senate to a county scheme of agricultural education.

In the House. The bill increasing the permanent tax levy of the state so as to give the state university half a mill of the tax instead of .23 of a mill, as at pres- ent, was passed by the house yester- day by a vote of 63 to 37. All the negative votes without exception came from country members.

The house yesterday reconsidered the vote on the bill passed Thursday raising the university tax from .23 to -50 mill. Representative Stuart, in speaking for the motion, said that it had been called to his attention that many of the members had voted for the bili under a misapprehension. They were not aware that if the Dal- zell taxation bill should fail of pas- sage in the senate the board of equal- | ization would assess property at its full value and it would give the uni- versity $1,000,000 with the half-mil) levy.

Do you know what is wrong when paint peels, or cracks, or otherwise necessitates ._premature re-painting? Well, sometimes it hasn’t been properly applied—the surface being damp or there being too much turpen- tine or too much drier. But, nine times out of ten, the trouble is caused by adulterated white lead. To avoid all such trouble, houseowner should know in a general ‘way, when a surface is in proper con- dition to receive paint, what kind of primer and finishing coats different surfaces require, and how to avoid adulteration in materials. A complete painting guide, includ- ing a book of color schemes, specifi- cations for all kinds of painting wor' and an instrument for detecting adul- terations in painting materials, with directions for using it, can be had free by writing National Lead Com- pany, 1902 Trinity Bldg., New York, and asking for Houseowner’s Paint- ing Outfit No. 49. This company, the largest makers of pure white lead, invite tests, by means of the blowpipe (included in | outfit), or in any other way, of the purity of the white lead sold under their famous “Dutch Boy Painter” trademark.
