MORE DUNKARD5 ARRIVE.
Two Additional Parties Arrive I'm st
Paul WestbOund.

Max Bass arrived in the city yesterday from
the South with another colony Of 80 Dunk
ards in tow. The detachment is destined
to Cando and to Devils Lake, n. D., where
the settlers will join the contingents which
went up last week. The Dunkards left last
evening on a Great Northern train.
The Northern Pacific also handled another
colony which came up from Kansas City via
the Chicago Great Western. The Northern
Pacific contingent numbered 40 Mennonites
There will be another movement of Dunkards
two weeks hence. The reason these people
leave their former homes in Western Kansas
and settle along the Great Northern and other
roads Is because Of the dry climate where
they have been living and the remoteness
from markets, with consequent low prices Oh
corn, cattle, hogs and other products. Here
they find perfect climate, rain and sunshine
alternating. good soil and close proximity tt
the markets.

Edison suggests lines of discovery
in the application Of electricity, and,
too busy himself to run them out,
leaves it for others to work the field.
Two or three years ago he discovered
that wires were not needed to convey
Geographic messages and demonstrate
ed it by telegraphing from moving
trains. Tesla experimental along the
same line, but a young Italian, Man
conf, has specialized the discovery and
carried it to a remarkable extent. Re
Gently he sent a message without US
ing wire from one postoffice in London
to another two miles away, and later
he sent a message five miles and
through, over or around a mountain.
The present limit Of his instruments
is twenty miles, but he is sure he can
conquer any distance with them when
he has perfected them. Before the
scheme for the naturalization of tele-
graphs Is carried into effect it might be
we'll to await the outcome of Manconi's
experiments. Should they prove what
he expects. we may see the Western
Union lobbying congress to buy its
lines and Bell telephone stock tum-
bling rapidly downward from its pres
ent altitude.

ROOM FOR ECONOMY.

Eleven thousand six hundred and
eighty dollars was the amount expend-
ed in the support of the labor bureau
of the state last year as given in the
state auditors report, and we heartily
concur in the report Of the investigat-
ing committee that this sum is decid-
edly too much to accomplish the pur-
poses Of the bureau as set forth in its
creative act. That act, which is chap
ter of the General Laws Of 1893, ere
ates the bureau with certain quite
clearly defined duties. 1t is to see to the
enforcement Of all acts relating to the
employment of children, minors and
women, for the protection and preser-
walton of the health, life and limbs Of
employees in factories or railways and
for the protection of working classes.
It's officers are also required to collect,
assert, arrange and present" to the
legislature Statistical details relating
to all departments of labor in the
state; to the subjects of cooperation,
strikes or other labor difficulties; to
trades unions and other labor organ
izatiOns and their effect upon labor
| and capital, and to other matters re-
| lating to the commercial industrial.
| social, educational, moral and sanitary
conditions of the laboring classes"
To do this work a commissioner is
authorized, with an assistant and a
factory inspector who shall constitute
the bureau. The commissioner is re-
quired to appoint two deputies and two
assistant factory inspectors, one OF
whom shall act as inspector of rail-
ways. He is authorized to employ
such other assistants at not to exceed
81 a day, exclusive of travelling ex-
penses, as may be necessary, at a cost
not exceeding So, 900 year. The COM
missioner shall be paid $1,000 a year,
his assistant 81, 500, the factory inspec-
tor $1,000, the two deputies and the
two assistant factory inspectors 81 ,OOI
each, with a sum not exceeding s., 600
for necessary travelling and incidental
expenses of the bureau.
The act thus makes provision for
seven salaried persons and authorizes
the commissioner to appoint still other:
if necessary. 1t provides stated salaries
amounting to $4,000 a year. and gives
$4,000 more for additional assistance
engaged by the day, while another
$4,000 is provided for necessary tray
cling and incidental expenses" al
though the annual appropriation is
limited to 81, 200. OF this all was spent
in 1896 except $500; a violation of prece-
dents in the other branches of this very
much bureaucrated state, where al
appropriations are serupulously spent
Admitting that it is desirable to have
gathered annual statistics relating t
labor, and admitting that facto
ry laws will not be enforced
by those most interested ii
their enforcement, it still remains
true that the provisions of this &C
as to the number of officers and EN-
! ployes are on a scale not justified b.
the duties to be legitimately performed
1t is encouraging that a committee ha
found one place where the knife ca
be applied to expenses, because it in
duces hope that it or other commit
tees may find similar needless expense
in our bureaucratic state.
