Richmond oa Bill toalea.
While admitting that hi employes have
sent out letters offering to make certified
copies of the bills which have been passed
by the legislature and have e)een approved.
Henry Richmond, chief clerk of the house,
today stated that tia doea not Intend to
heat tha state out of money which should
rightfully go to It
"I do not want any of this bualnesa In
mine. said Chief Clerk Richmond, "and I
am ready to vacata tna office of tb chief
clerk whenetrar the slate desires to uaa the
room. Tha state fir warden Is to occupy
tha room of tho chief clerk, and X am
ready any time for him to mora Into the
office. I would 11 ko to retain desk room
for one month, but I shall not Insist on
that even though tho house paased a reso
lution granting me that right. I expect to
finish the wort of preparing tho bouse
Journal within one month."
Secretary of State Walt Is custodian of
all bill! paastd by the legislature and he
alone has authority to make a certified
copy of a bill passed. He has the seal of
the state behind him, while the chief clerk
of the house has no seal and no legal au
thority to make certified copies of bills.
The enrolled bill filed In the office of the
secretary of state is the only authorised
copy. Of what value a certificate from the
chief clerk would be in court or elsewhere
Is not clear, yet the employes of the chief
clerk's offlco have sent out letters offer
ing to make "certified" copies of bills. In
this work tho former employes of the
house of representatives cheat the state
out of fees and In so doing are using the
state's offlco room and typewriters and the
stationery furnished by the state and are
signing the name of the chief clerk.
It la customary for the State board to
permit the officers of the house and senate
to use office rooms for a few months after
tho adjournment of the legislature, but this
Is only by sufferance. When the legisla
ture adjourns Its authority ends and the
entire capltol building Is In control of the
Board of Public Lands and Buildings. Thl
board does not Intend to permit the use of
Its office rooms by private cltlsens who de
sire to use state property for private use.
Bill Dech Still Kicking.
fpon complaint of W. H. Dech. better
known In the palmy days of populism as
"Bill," the Burlington railroad has been
severely chlded In a communication from
the railroad commission for not maintain
ing a station service at Wahoo, for the
arrival and departure of night freight
trains. The matter, which was looked Into
by the commissioners has resulted In the
Burlington promising to keep the depot
open for Its patrons until after the de
parture of the trains named In the com
plaint. Dates of several hearings to be held
by the commissioners early next month
were given out today. On May 3. the
commission will review the complaint of
the Albion Alfalfa and Milling company,
against the Union Pacific, relating to the
rates on alfalfa from that city to Uneoln.
The day following the commissioners will
hear the complaint of the John W. Hill
and Noah Morse at Rushvllle, in regard
to station facilities at Clinton, a little
town on tha line of tha Northwestern.
May 6, the complaint of R. P. Drake, re
garding the location of tho Northwestern
depot at Humphrey will be heard at that
place.
Declares Alnraal Sheald Act.
It. C. Pmlth of Minneapolis, a fo-mer
graduate of the state university, who has
not vlalted his alma mater for fourteen
yeara, arrived In tho olty yeserday on a
short business trip. In looking over the
university with which he haa kept In
touch since leaving college, the Minnesota
man asserted that he was much chagrined
to find that the growth of the campus and
buildings of the slate university had not
kept pnee with Its attendance In tha last
few years.
"What the university needs Is an active
alumni orgnniiation that will get behind
the school and shove It forward much the
same aa the I'nherilty of Minnesota haa
been advanced. There, graduates do not
let their activities for their alma mater
cease when they leave. They are con
stantly organised for the purpose of pro
moting the welfare of the achool and have
definite plans by which they accomplish
their object. They see that they got
everything that la coming to them from the
Minnesota legislature. They know before a
session begins Just what they want to do,
and they go after It and stay with It until
they get what they need. In many of the
districts. In fact, they see to It thst the
men who are favorable to the university's
interests are elected
"For Ins lance tr.ey secured appropria
tions amounting to $1,000,000 for the pur
chase of land alone on which to extend
the campus.. The last session they saw to
It that special appropriation bills earning
about fiOn,000 for the use of the university
outside of the regular maintenance appro
priation were passed and approved," as
serted Mr. Smith.
AcrWnMural Cadeta la Cama.
About 3o0 cadets comprising the uni
versity achool of agriculture battalion en
camped this morning at the state farm for
a four-days' experience along practical
military lines. Under the direction of Cap
tain Halsey Yates, commandant of the
state university cadets, the students will
go through a dally routine In military In
struction. 8everal competltiv drills will be
held and silver medals given to the win
ners. Thursday the Workiier Rifles, the
crack company of the farm battalion, will
compete with the Pershlngs, the crack
military organisation of the state uni
versity, In a spell down drill.
Dies In Doctor's Office.
Nels Rasmussen, an old resident of this
city became suddenly III In tho office of a
local physician today and before the as
sistance could reach him suffered several
short convulsions and died. The deceased
had been In good health until yesterday
when he complained of slight pains. This
