County option debate shows party lines and tensions
St Paul notes a heated debate on county option with Henry Riges of Mora leading opponents and Mr Burnquist delivering the clearest proponent argument. The defeat by vote to 50 is recorded amid warnings that temperance politics will shape future party platforms and legislative aims. A tonnage tax bill also surfaces, with supporters citing ore state taxes and opposition wary of disrupting district redistributions and roads funding.
