"A MONUMENT TO MINNESOTA

"A MONUMENT 10 lfINNESOl4.
The State capitol commission Will
soon be called upon to select plans and
material for the new capitol. There
is a feeling prevalent that both should
be products of Minnesota and it is to
be hoped that the commissioners are
near enough to the people to recognize
this. The people of the State must
pay for this building and this demand
for the use Of Minnesota material is
not unjust. If the State was a private
corporation possessing all the building
materials Minnesota possesses it would
be looked upon as the greatest folly
and considered a grave business mis-
take to purchase elsewhere. The
building will be paid for by taxes
assessed against the property of the
residents. Those who secure the con-
tracts for material if they are Mime
sofa mon will of course increase their
assessable property and pay a larger
amount Of this tax than they otherwise
would. Besides this the money ex-
pended would remain in circulation
among the people who will be assessed
to pay for the building.
Minnesota's forests are able to sup
ply both hard and soft woods, her
quarries all qualities and colors of
stone, her claybeds all kinds of brick,
and she has competent men to carry
on the construction. To repeat the
made by those who had charge
of the building at the university a few
years ago would be unWise for this
commission and an outrage on the peo-
pie who must foot the bills.
Let the new capitol be monument
to the resources Of the North Star
State and the skill Of Minnesota work

NO argument which will hold water
has been advanced against the location
OF the insane hospital at Anoka. The
location OF the hospital there places
the institution within easy reach of
Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth, a
fact which should have great weight
with the commissioners. The site is
offered low enough, too, unless the
State has become bankrupted under
its double salary system and is an OBJ

IMID-CONTIN.ENI' EXPOSITION

Since the visit Of the newspaper fra
ternity to the Atlanta Cotton EXPOSE
tion there has been considerable talk
going the rounds of the press and
much interest being aroused regarding
the feasibility of holding a Northwest
ern Exposition in Minnesota. The
idea is to have an exhibition of the
leading products of the northwestern
States and the bordering divisions of
the Dominion of Canada. The pro-
ducts of this section are numerous and
important. Minnesota with her lum-
ber, iron, -four and farm products
alone can,make a very creditable dis
play and if the other sections of the
northwest fall into line as they should
and as they seem willing to, an expo
sitiOn could be made which would at
tract more attention to the resources
OF the northwest than could be done
by any other method Expositions
have become one of the most impor-
tant features of our educational sys-
tenn. One might read descriptions of
the products and Industries of a section
for years and be less informed of the
resources of that portion of the coun-
try than one who spent a week exam
lining the articles and the methods Of
manufacturing and producing them.
AS educational institutions these ex-
positions have received Endorsement
and financial support from the govern
ment and there is no reason why Min
nesota should not secure aid from the
government should she decide to un-
dertake the project.
There must not be undue haste in
this matter either, if the exposition is
to represent the northwest in the
broadest sense. An exhibition half
prepared would, be worse that none
and besides the legislatures Of the
States participating will not meet unn- unn
til year from next January Every
thing done before this time would be
unofficial and must be done by those
engaged in the enterprise on their in
dividual responsibility or backed by
the people by means Of notes as was
done in Minnesota before the Colum-
bian Exposition.
There are some cranks who are op-
posed to the idea because they see in
it only an advertisement and benefits
for the cities Of ST. Paul and Mime
apolis Such individuals are short
sighted. Anything that will attract
attention to one part of the northwest
will benefit the whole northwest. The
A golden opportunities offered will bring
immigration and immigration means
development. Of course the iobbers
OF the large cities will reap harvest
from the sale of merchandise but the
farmer will find that the market fol
4 his products will be better and his
1 marketable supplies will be consumed
nearer home. There is no one who
will not be benefited more or less and
all should work to aid in carrying out
! the scheme. 0
