MINNESOTA RELIEF.
STATE BOARD TELLS WHAT HAS
AND WHAT SHOULD BE DONE.

About 500 Worthy Families Must BE Pro-
Their Farms With Means to Provide FoH
Themselves Public Address by the Min
nesota Relief Board.
ST.. PAUL, Sept 10.-The state reliet
board, appointed by Governor Nelson
to look after destitute people in the fire
district at Hinckley and vicinity, has
published q statement telling what has
been done, and what should be done in
the future for the poor people. The ad-
dress says:
The work of searching for and bury
ing the dead has now been practically
completed The devastated district has
been thoroughly explored by trained
woodsmen and possibly all the dead
have been found and buried
Hundreds of People To Provide For.
Twelve hundred people from Hinck-
ley, Sandstone and other parts found
refuge at Duluth, where their immedl-
ate wants have been most generously
met by the citizens. About 500 people
have been cared for at Pine City, and
large number at Rush City, Mora and
Princeton.
Hundreds of people have been left
destitute. To re-establish these people
as far as possible in their old homes,
and, when not practicable, to locate
them elsewhere under such conditions
as will enable them to support them
selves, will be the endeayor of the Min.
nesota state commission.
What Is Most Needed.
The fire sufferers may be classified
as follows:
First-Single men who need only an
outfit of clothing and perhaps little
money to enable them to look for work.
Second-Small farmers, most of whom
have bought 40 to 120 acres of land on
contract, on which they have paid a
small amount. Most of these people
want to go back on the land. There are
probably $50 of these farmers.
Villagers of Hinckley and
Sandstone. Some Of these people want
to return at once; others may have to
seek new homes if the industries at
those places are not resumed.
Fourth-Widows with small children
who ought to locate in the smaller
towns of the state.
They Are All worthy People.
The sufferers by this fire are an
excellent class of people. Their re-
quests are moderate, but the commits
sion finds that very large amount of
money, building material and supplies
will be needed. Contributions of baled
hay, oats, barley and especially winter
rye, are needed to provide seed and
food for stock.
While contributions of material are
acceptable, the commission would re-
mind the people of the state that money
is the most portable and useful contri-
button possible. A large proportion of
the people are farmers. They must be
fitted out with houses, farming imple-
ments and supplies until they can raise
crop, and this will require large
amount of money.
Where to Send Cash OR Supplies.
Cash contributions should be sent
direct to Kenneth Clark, treasurer, ST.
Paul. Those having supplies will notify
him and he will send instructions as to
shipment. The commission has desig-
mated it's secretary, Mr.. Fl. FL. Hart, to
represent them in a general execution
of the work. Communications not re-
iating to contributions should be ad-
dressed to Fl. H. Hart, Pine City. The
commission will have representatives at
Hinckley, Pine City and Duluth.
