IT is undoubtedly true that the
country quite generally would have
been glad to see Governor Roosevelt
take up the work of the War Depart
ment. 1t was also rumored that the
position might have been at his dis
posal If he had been inclined to con-
slider it. But although Colonel Roos-
evelt is more ideally fitted for the
position in the existing emergency
than any other man, it is not strange
that he was dislnclined to lay down
the governorship OF the greatest state
in the union to enter the cabinet at a
time when his hands were full of the
duties OF his present Office, and when
on the other hand, he could hardly
hope to be able to handle the military
situation with 4. free rein.

ART IN THE COUNTY JAIL.
a Prisoner Who Applies a New
Method to Painting.


There is a genius in Sheriff Wagener's
custody, at the county Jail, In the per-
son OF julius H. Williams, an artist, who
claims to have patented a novel method
OF making and reproducing pictures Dur.
ing his confinement at the Jail Williams
has made several pictures which show
the merit Of his work. Williams served
term at the Wisconsin state peniten-
tiary for cOunterfeiting, after which he
was brought to the Ramsey county Jail
to await the January term Of the federal
court at Duluth, where he will be prose-
cuted by the government. AS Williams
has already served a sentence under the
Wisconsin state law, he hopes the gov
eminent will not be too severe on him
II he Is discharged he will at once COM
mence making pictures by his new proc
ess, which he thinks will bring large re-
turns.
Before turning his artistic talent to-
ward making limitations of Uncle Sans
money Williams lived with his family at
West Superior. Times were hard and
money scarce, and he does not deny hav-
ing turned for a short time from the
straight and narrow path While at
Waupun Williams conceived the idea Of
making pictures by the new method.
Materials were furnished him by the
prison officials. and he reproduced a
number sef scenes in his spare hours.
These pictures were sold to- friends and
& those about the prison, and Williams sent
/ the money to his family. During the last
year of his sentence a new warden took
charge at WaupC1 and refused to allow
Williams to continue his work. -
When he arrived at the Ramsey county
Jail Williams interested Deputy Sheriff
Bonn in his method Of picture-making
and was furnished with materials from
which he produced an enlarged copy of
a scene of President Lincoln's birthplace
for which an admirere offered $50. VIII
liams made the picture for Deputy Sheriff
Bonn and would not sell it, The method
used by Williams consists in painting
part Of the picture on a canvas back
ground, while the more prominent part
Is painted on the, glass. covering. In this
way an excellent perspective is produced,
adding much to the realism of the pie
ture. In the reproduction of Iincoln's
home, the mountains stand out In the
distance unusually we'll defined, while the
house and a little church, produced on
the glass covering, seem to nestle at the
foot Of the hills, with the Intervening
distance almost perceptible in actual
space. Williams expects to finish several
other pictures before leaving the jail.

board in the consideration Of matters in
which legal questions are involved.
Several Of the members Of the school
board say that 1t Is not worth while to
talk Of building two new school buildings
for $4,000, and that nearly all of this
sum would be required for one modern
building. If a building IS to be erected it
will be located near the boundary be-
tween the Seventh and Eighth wards.
Inspector McNair says that the erection
of two new buildings would mean an in
crease in the teaching staff as well as
other employees, and the fund will hardly
pay the salaries of those now employed.
Jailer Jake Stadtfield, Of the Ducas
street police station, has commenced his
work with the census figures again. The
hgures, according to Jake's deductions,
show that the Germans have more votes
than offices by several hundred, and
something should be done to increase the
proportion of German-American Office
holders. This Stadtf1eld figures can best
be done by renominating and re-electing
the present mayor, and he is working for
that end. Some of the politicians who
are opposed to Kiefer find fault because
Jake spends his time In eectioneering
and draws pay from the city for work
Capt. Getchell, who IS in, charge Of the
Ducas street station, explains that Jake
is night jailer, and in the day time is q
free citizen, so far as his police duties
are concerned.
And now 1t Is reported that, because
he voted against the motion to abolish
the building inspectors department, Pres
ident Pottgieser, of the board of public
works, Is to be deposed from office March
1 and Commissioner Ames elected to pre-
side over the board rneetinrs
one by one the employees Of the city en-
gfneer's department who are pronounced
Keferites are being dropped from the
rolls. W. c. Mattocks, for years en-
ployed In the department as rodman. was
notified yesterday that his services would
no longer be required. The letting out
OF Mattocks' the city engineer says, was
due to there being a let-up in the field
work and there would be no one aD-
pointed In his place, at least at the pres
ent time.
In case County Auditor Johnson should
refuse to audit the pay roll Of the ooun-
~ attorneys office and the matter should
be taken itno the courts, there wilr he a
chance for Assistant County Attorney
Aoliman to draw about 800 back pay.
The decision of the supreme court In
the RIFT case was that laws limiting their
operation to counties having from LOO. 900
TO lSo,O00 population was special Iesisla-
ton, as 1t applied only to Ramsey coun-
~. The law allowing the county commits
sioners to fix the salaries of the assistant
and clerk in the office is Identical as to
the classification of population as that of
the assessor act. If it is Illegal then Mr.
Aoliman goes back to the act previous
to 1887 and gets an increase over the
