PAY HIGHEST MARLET PRICE FOR SAME ALFRED BLOMBERG Jesse Lake - Minnesota f ANY MOMENT | Lower House of Legislature | Sitting Over a Mine, ‘KLEMER EPISODE STILL ALIVE Effect of Bad Feeling Caused by Inci dent Apparent in Action on Gertain Measures. (Special Correspondence.) St. Paal, Aprit 3—The Mianesota house ef represeatmtives is a loaded! | mime. It is likely to blow up at almost) | agy moment. The Klemer episode has been settled, for the time being, but} | the motives which prompted the out: | | break are still ative. Representative | ' Kiemer, the man who precipitated tha | trouble, is not the kimd of a man ta) lead a revolution. He is a mild and, soft speaking individual, but was ap | parently disappointed in his committee aseignmemts. He made the charge ot} packed committees without apparently knowing just what he was doing and wkhowt a proper appreciation of wha. | the charge meam. After he had made} | it he was willing to apologize, but he/ | Was prevensed from doing eo upon the | advice of friends who were glad to see} | the matter stirred up. Lator he did! | apelogize for his anparliamentary lan guege. | ++ + } The dramatic incident of the occa | sion occurred when, after Mr. Klemet' | had made his apology for using unpar-| | Hiamentary language, Speaker Dunn | | from the floor, and after Represeata | tive Fowler of Minueapolis had been ealled to the chair, demanded that | Representative Klemer and Represen | tative W. T. Stone of Hubbard county who had joined in the charges, be ealled to the bar of the house and be: asked to state specifically what com-| | mittees they regarded as packed and with what members they regarded} them as being packed. Previous to; that a resolution of censure had been ; passed on Representative Klemer| which incorporated the language ot | the apology which he had intended to. make. The debate over the proposi-| tion occasioned some hard feeling and } Robert C. Dunn, losing his temper, ap- plied the unpartiamentary term oi: “miserable whiffet" to Representative | Ctinton Robinson of Winona. Mr.| Dunn later said he “humbly apolo- gized” for his unparcliamentary lan-| guage, but Representative Robinson refused to accept It, saying “it's set too tong,” and the laughter which fol- lowed mellowed the tenseness of the! ++ + When haled before the bar of the house neither Representative Klemer nor Representative Stone had atty defi- nite charges to make. Representative Klemer, when questioned by Represen-; tative Spooner did not even know that Mr. Spooner is chairman of the house eommittee en appropriations, the most powerful committee in the body. The two men took refuge in the excuse! that they had not had time in which | to prepare their charges. hepresenta-| tive Klemer and his friends still threaten to make specific ebarges and ' demand an investigation. ret Back of ali the trouble in the house, f fe said, is an effort to split the Re publican party on the issue of insur-| gency with a view of secarimg the; Minnesota delegation for La Follette | in the next national convention aad | against the continuation of President | ‘Pak in office. The Hberhart admia- jetration forces are aligned en the side of Taft. Speaker Durmn has, shown a disposition to be regular. All faetions claim to be progressive, but without an issue the La Follette forces weuld be left in a bad way and | their only bope is tn raising the issue of “reactionaryism”’ in Republican pol- ities. The Demoerats are carefutly | watching the situation and throughout | the session have beer playing an ex-i eeMent game of politics. | | ++ + | Speaker Dunn, since the eruption fm the house, has been a very sick man. The speaker had a touch of ptomaiee poisoning, complicated with threatened typheid, and all in all has, been having a hard time of it. H t+ + ‘Reapportionmeat is stil hanging; five in the senate. Senators Rockne | and Clague were ready to introduce | their new bill, giving Hennepin county one extra senator, St. Louis county one extra senator and distributing the | other four in the Red River valley, | on Thursday. During the week an| effort to secure the passage of a con-| stitutional amendment to the effect | that the number of senators should be Hmited to four from each county | struck a snag and was finally prog- | pessed. The Rockne-Clague bil! is still pending. + + + Strenuovs efforts are being made to defeat the Keefe bill, passed by the | house, providing for the adoption of | what is known as the Oregon plan for the election of United States senators. | It is claimed the bill is designed to’ | make it possible for John Lind to se- | cure election to the senate in place | ef the whole, the Moonan-Duxbury- | Weis bill came up, amending the con- | the authors of the bill contended for it | also incorporated im a bill by Senator | | % per cent gross earnings tax. Rep- | i against it. may be adopted in its place. This bill | ot Nelson. The Marray bill MAY BLOW UP Seiten winter Soe ators according to what is known as the North Dakota plan. The Oregon plan is objected to on the ground that ' it makes it possible for the minority | candidates to take advantage of dis- sensions in the majority party and thus foree his election, even at the hands of a majority party legistature. Sree tee The rules committee of the house is planning retrenchment for the closing days of the session. It will cut off some of the extra employes, names as yet unknown. The saving will prob- ably amount to $100 a day. i ++ + ‘ The report of the committee which has been investigating the state re feem schoo! at Red Wing wifl recom. mend tke abolition of corpora! pusish- ment and possibly the dismissal of Superintendent F. A. Whittier. Reg- ‘esentative L. A. Lydiard of Minneap- olis is insistent that the superintend- emt be dismissed on the ground that, with his well known views on the sys- tem of corpora! punishment, he is not @ fit man for the place. The report may gently insinuate to the board of eontrol that it is up to that body to take some interest in the humana be ings it has im its charge in addition te the more material task of buying sup- plies. Former Senator A. D. Stephens of Crookston, who started the iavesti- gatioa, has won a potable victory. t+ + The senate committee on roads and bridges has made a favorable report on Senator J. M. Hackney’s bill giving sounty commissioners coatrot of all road aad bridge funds in counties whore there are forty er more miles of mecadam or other improved roads. | The house bill authorizing cities of the second, third aad fourth class to levy a 2mill road tax was also recom. ' mended for passage. ++ + The senate committee on finance eut down the appropriation provided for in house file 559, a bill providing | fer state aid for school districts in Proportion to the area of unsold state lands in each district. This bill was introduced by the house committee on appropriations and carried an appro Priation of $100,60@. The senate com- mittee reduced the amouat to $50,000. +t Representative Kerry Conley’s bill regulating the dimensions of lumber was killed by the house after a spirtt- ed skirmish. The bill provided that all lumber, except dressed stuff, should be of the purported dimensions. t+ + Every now and then the senate wakes up on the subject of reappor- tionment. When, in the committee | ‘ stitution so as to limit the number of senators from any one county to four, seriously and the réapportionment bat- tle was renewed. The city senators did not have a great deal to say, most of them preferring to treat the matter as a joke. Senator W. 8. Dwinnell of Hennepin put in an amendment pro- viding that counties of 200,000 should have no senators at all. Friends of the bill realized it was too drastic and tried to amend it, raising the number from four to five, then to six and seven. But with the votes of the city members these provisions were voted down. Finally the debate was stopped by a decision to defer action and to try and get together. One feature of the biH changing the basis of repre- sentation from population to voters appeals to many senators and it is pos- sible that the bill will be amended so as to leave only this feature, which ia | Schaller. This has special application to the iron range country. | ett | Knutson’s bil! declaring for com. | pulsery arbitration was defeated in | the house by a vote of 34 to 78. Rep- resentative Knutson was one of the men who sided with the house organi- mation in the fight over the Kiemer resolution. The Klemer men had their knives out for him and voted solidly against the bill, or almost so. ; ++ + { Another bill, marked for slaughter as a result of the Klemer episode, was the Spooner bill providing for a | resentative Spooner explained that he was entitled to no credit in the mat- ter, as it was a tax commission bill. The mere fact that Representative Spoower was behind it was enough | fer the Klemer supporters. Notwith- { standing that most of them are radi- eals they went after Representative | Spooner’s bill with a warwhoep. ‘Wher the smoke of battle had cleared away it had been defeated by a vote | of 88 to 26. Most of the radicals voted ‘ ++ + i Women’s suffrage was defeated in the senate by a vote of 32 to 30. There were no lengthy discussions. Senator Sageng of Otter Tail, author of the bill, made a speech in its defense. | There were no opposition speeches. | The senators who believe in suffrage | for women are Bedford, Boyle, Ben- | son, Cashman, Cheadle, C. F. Cooke, | Dale, Denegre, Duxbury, Elwell, Fros- | haug, Gunderson, Hanson, Haycraft, | C. D. Johnson, V. L. Johnson, Lende, | Moonan, Nelson, Odell, Olson, Put- nam, Rustad, Sageng, Saugstad, Schal- ler, Sundberg, Thoe and Wilson. Much of the credit for the good show- ing made for the bill is due to Miss | Mary McFadden, a well known Duluth newspaper woman. a we POW WW WU WU UUW EWU he Planet Seeder a Jt { There's a whole lot of satisfaction in selling Implements that will do more than you expect them to do- that will 4 the work so well that you will not only return for mo ~ plements but other things as well 4 That's why we offer you this, the Planet Jr. seeder 4 We know that it will do well) nay more than you can S sibly expect.
