STATE FINANCES.
Generally They Are in a Very
Satisfactory Condition.

1t is estimated that the excess of receipts
over disbursements for the years 1928
will approximate S700.000. This sum will
be available for purposes of enlarging and
improving state institutions, and for other
necessary objects. The various boards and
commissions have suggested expenditures
that, if made, would involve an outlay of
about 81. 100000. 1t will be impossible,
under existing circumstances, in my judg-
We are forbidden by law to create any
further bonded debt. and it would
be extremely u nwise to increase the
tax levy at the time. The times are not pro-
pitious for any additional burden in the way
of direct taxes. venture to suggest for your
consideration the desirability of combining all
appropriations for building purposes or ex-
traordlnary expenses to the sum above
noted-S7O0, 900. Attached to this paper is
a full statement of the revenues to be de-

KENYON'S REPORT.
A Department Which Is Being
Overloaded With Work,

The report of the public examiner gives in
detail the result of the work accomplished
in his department. Under the provisions of
an act passed by the last legislature a large
amount of work has been entailed upon the
bank examiner in connection with the build
ing and loan associations. / doubt very
much the desirability of placing the various
loan and building societies under state man.
agement, unless the laws under which they
are organized and regulated are uniform
and more strict. 1t is an impOsSibility
for state officers to properly look
after in ;titutions formed upon a business
basis SO insecure and be officially RESPONSE
Many of the associations guarantee profits
that are not obtainable if ordinary business
methods are pursued. and proper care exer
ciSed i'll the way OF prudent investments and
economy in management. Building So
cieties, founded upon right principles and
conducted upon safe and prudent basis,
have proved remunerative investments. and
in many instances have been of advan-
tage to the community, but institutions
organized for the purpose of providing
large salaries for officers and directors,
and conducted upon plans utterly for
eign to well-known commercial rules, result
in final disaster and loss to unsuspecting
stockholders. If the state is to assume the
guardianship of institutions of this kind let
the law be so amended as to give the fullest
opportunity to protect the public by means
of ordinary safeguards. The work entailed
upon this department is increasing so rap
idly that some means must be devised to de-
fray the expense of further clerical help In
order 70 meet this additional sum it would
be well to collect of every bank, trust COM
pany or building and loan association. fee
commensurate with the capital invested. to
be paid into the state treasury. Quite an
amount would thus be obtained to defray
the expense Of maintaining the Office OF the
examiner.

az. In the decrease of mechanical re-
stIGint."
There Should be a separate industrial
building, and the occupation of the patient
should be adapted. so far as practicable, to
his previous life and habits.
SiXth-Although it is not practicable az
this time to make separate provision for the
class known to the medical fraternity as the
criminal insane it is. in my judgment, deslr-
able that it should be done whenever neces--
sary appropriation may be properly asked
for. 1t is manifestly wrong 10 compel insane
people of ordinary refinement and of re-
spectability to associate with insane
murderers, criminals and disreputable
characters. How offensive to the mildly
and harmless insahe-to the mothers,
wives and sisters-in their lucid intervals,
must be this enforced association. Experi-
ence has shown that insanity simply inten-
sites criminal propensities, and it is a tact
that the non-criminal insane do not combine
for any purpose, while the criminal insane
are constantly scheming and attempting es-
cape, thus necessitating greater precautions
and larger number Of attendants.
| would recommend that creator super
visory powers be vested in the lunacy com
mission, and that it be charged with further
responsibility in the commitment and dis
charge of patients. Some of the provisions
of law in force in the state of New York,
covering this whole matter, and which in
operation is giving eminent satisfaction, is
well worthy your consideration.

ABOUT THE INSANE.
How the Management of the Hos.
pitfalls Can Be Improved.

A most careful and painstaking inquiry
into matters pertaining to hospitals for the
insane in this and other states has convinced
me that we may make radical improvements
in methods of construction and manage
ment All that should be done cannot be
accomplished at once, but beginning may
be made upon some well considered
plan that would eventually place our
state in this particular, abreast with the
times and cause her institutions of this
character to be recognized as embodying the
best results of modern thought. In dealing
with this subject we should not forget that
the outcome affects the only class within our
borders unable to make demand and enter
a protest and that for this reason our obi
cations TO them are of the most sacred char
acter. Nor should we fail to remember that
these helpless wards of the state are the
fathers, mothers, sisters and brothers OF our
friends and neighbors.
l offer for your consideration the follow
ing suggestions, all important in any plan
that has for its object the elevation of the
standard of excellence of our hospitals for
the insane, and some of which, i'll my judg-
ment, may and should receive your imme-
date and careful attention.
First-The corps OF physicians should be so
increased as to provide one for each 100 pa
tlents. The practice of placing 900 to loo
patients under the care of, say, four ply
sicians amounts practically, to herding of
the insane, and as it is contemplated on the
part of the state to cure as well as care for
the inmates, one of the purposes for which
the asylums are provided is in large meas
ure frustrated.
Second-No physician should receive an
appointment at an asylum until he has sue
cessfully passed a thorough examination be-
fore the lunacy commission, to test his
knowledge of mental and nervous diseases
and his general fitness for the position.
Third-A training school for attendants
should be established, and course of lect-
ures and practical instruction in the care of
the insane provided. Before attendants are
accepted permanently as employees of an
asylum they should be required to graduate
from such training school. There should be
one attendant, at least, for every ten pa
tents, and d graded system of promotion, all
examinations being competitive.
Fourth-All the asylums should be fur
nished with amortuary room. fully equipped.
Fifth-It is no longer matter for doubt
that in the large majority of cases improved
mental condition results from giving employ
ment to the insane. Upon this subject an
eminent authority SAYS: THE real value Of
occupation as q remedial agent in the treat
ment of insanity has not been appreciated
until a comparatively recent date. In trac-
ing the influence of occupation we are COM
PEELED to note its four-fold effect
az. In the Improvement of the general
health and mental vigor of the patient.
(2) In arresting tendencies to dementia
81. In the reduction of violence and dis
urbances ii the refractory wards.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

Wheat markets were higher yesterday
morning. but they had much of that narrow
scalping character so conspicuous for some
time past. The Bradstreet report of a de-
crease of $50, 900 bu in supplies east of the
Rocky mountains tended TO stiffen the mar
kets The probabilities are that if a mistake
of 2l5, 900 bu in that report had been
eliminated the decrease would have been
that much greater. Still, the market had
hardly gone beyond a professional style of
trading since the holidays, and may not for
a few weeks yet, or until there is more
development of the Situation in the

form, and as elevator companies are buying
no more than current shipments, they had no
lines of wheat to sell. Trade was steady and
deals easy to make, but the situation showed
no snap. New York cleared %, 900 bu wheat

SANS SALARY.
The Oil Inspection Law Requires
Immediate Attention.

At the last session of the legislature the
law concerning the inspection of illuminat-
ing oils was amended, whereby the fee sys
TEN was abolished, and the position of in.
spector of oils made Salarled office, all
emoluments arising from inspection being
covered monthly into the state treasury. No.
appropriation having been made to pay his
salary, the inspector deducted the amount
due him under the provisions Of the law
each month, from the fees collected.
the district court of Hennepin county
by company dealing in illuminat-
ing oils against the deputy oil
inspector in that county. it was decided that
the term package as used in the statute
might refer to a receptacle for oil of any
size and that the vendor of Oil was not COM
PEELED to submit to inspection by the barrel
unless he SO elected. The practical effect OF
the decision was such as to render it lmpos-
sible to procure an inspector to serve who
would be willing to accept the legal COM
pensation for inspecting package" con-
tanning 100 or more barrels at the rate of ~
cents. that being the maximum sum al
lowed by the statute. AS a result. and if
taken, Illuminating oils would have
been sold broadcast over the state without
inspection, endangering, possibly, human
life and property. After consultation with
the attorney general and the representatives
of the large dealers i'll illuminating oils an
arrangement was made whereby the compa-
MES dealing in and distributing oil agreed to
pay the salaries of three inspectors until such
time as the law could be amended to meet
the case involved. This undoubtedly was
the best plan that could be devised to meet
the emergency. / respectfully urge upon you
the necessity of prompt legislation in connec-
ton with this matter. Illuminating oil is
very generally in use throughout the state,
and provision should be at once made to
avoid any calamity that might occur from
neglect TO rigidly inspect the same. 1t might
be we'll to consider the advisapility of return
ing to the free system, reducing the amount
per barrel to ten (10) cents, in accordance
with the law in neighboring states. The
public will be better served, and the per-
quisites, after deducting the sum necessary
to provide deputies to strictly enforce the
law, would not aggregate an exces-
sive amount, in the view of the labor
performed. From such information
as have at hand the number of barrels that
are likely to be subject to inspection will not
exceed $4,000 per annum in the cities of st.
Paul and Minneapolis. There would, per-
haps. be $4,000 to 10000 barrels to be in
spected in other parts of the state, 10 be
handled by local inspectors. After deducting
necessary expenses of rigorous inspection in
the two cities, it would leave between So. 900
and ST. 900 as a salary to the chief inspector.
Should it be deemed advisable to continue to
pay salary to the inspector the amount
should be provided for in the general appro-
priation bill.

FUND THE DEBT.
An Opportunity Whereby the State
Can Save Money.

In July next the state may avail itself of
the privilege. if it SO elects, of paying and re-
firing the 4Ia per cent Minnesota railroad
adjustment bonds. The amount outstanding
at this time is So 965, 900. OF this sum all are
held by the various trust fudds of the state,
save S1,6S6.OO Of this latter amount a
certain portion may be absorbed by the cash
available in the internal improvement fund,
leaving about $500, 900 of bonds, which
may be allowed to run at the present rate of
4l2 per cent, or funded into
bond bearing a lower interest charge.
l., would suggest that a funding
bill be prepared permitting the proper Of
fcers to take up the bonds when the option
may be availed of, in case any saving can be
effected for the state. Should the condition
of the money market warrant, think bond
bearing rate as low as 3l2 per cent per an
mum could be sold at par. 1t would be well,
also, to submit a constitutional amendment
at the next general election, authorizing the
trustees of the internal land improvement
fund to exchange the land contracts in that
fund. amounting to- say, $500, 600, for the
adjustment bonds held in other trusts and
to provide that when SO exchanged an equal
number of bonds be Cancelled, thus extin-
gushing that amount of our state debt.

EDUCATION.
Weighty Words Upon the Needs
OF the Public Schools,

Our whole educational system is SO excel
lent. and rests upon SO secure foundation,
that hardly deem it necessary to enlarge
upon it particularly. The excellent character
OF the work being done in the university, the
normal schools, and in the high schools, is so
generally known and appreciated as to re-
quire but little comment other than words of
highest praise. Some changes are needed in
the direction of the management of the high
schools of the state as well as some addi-
tional appropriation to meet the natural
growth incident 10 a rapidly increasing pop
ulation. 1t would be we'll to enlarge the
present high school board, consisting of
three members, to five, the two additional to
be selected, one by the normal school board.
The employment of special secretary. who
would devote his time to the inspection OF
the high and graded schools, seems to me de-
sirable.
Quite a number of graded schools might
rank as high schools If the appropriation
was increased $4,000 per year. and thus a
very desirable result would follow moderate
additional expenditure. The sum OF $400 is
allowed each high school under certain con-
ditions and at this time the appropriation
only provides for sixty. At least twenty-five
additional schools should receive the aid of
800, as by this assistance they would grow
into excellent institutions and raise the
standard of education in the counties where
they are situated

GONE TO THE WALL.
A New York Failure Pzsnctuated
by EanbezZlement.

NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-It is reported that M.
l.. Morris, dealers in cloakings at SO Lispen-
ard street, has disappeared, owing his cred
itors a large amount. He professed to have
q capital of $4,000. He also represented
that his father was very wealthy, and gained
good credit in the trade. A large creditor
saws that their efforts to find Mr.. Morris had
been unsuccessful, but it is believed that
Morris was still i'll the city. Morris had re-
moved everything from his place of bust
ness, leaving nothing of value. The creditor
further said that the liabilities might be any
where from $50, 600 to $4,000, but thought
the first amount was nearer right.
