night and reported that the people in
his section were unanimous for Clapp.
But the people are not, necessarily, in
this fight, and his district only has one
Republican vote, which is reported to
be for ClaDp. A number Of petitions
from the state were received yester-
day by the Clapp men urging their rep

There are rumors that there will be a
number of absentees from the caucus
tonight, and as these are fomented by
the Lowry organs it looks as though
that might be Lowry move. 1t is
not likely, however, that many will take
the risk Of ostracising themselves from
their party, by absenteeism.
At heart do not think any one ex-
poets a nomination tonight It's a good
bluff to claim a nomination until the
bluff Is called, and perhaps the caucus
will make that call. If the election is
not thrown into the open legislature
without any caucus at all 1t will be be-

The assembly committee on license at
It's meeting yesterday recommended the
revoking Of the license of Joseph Nico-
lin, who conducts what is known as the
German Village" at Seventh and Wash
ington streets.
AT the meeting of the assembly last
evening resolution to this effect waa
introduced, but in order that the pro-
prietor Of the saloon can be heard the
matter was referred to the Committee
on license.
The argument advanced by the COM
ntttee is that the place is disorderly
and is the rendezvous Of characters adj
dicted to vice. Similar recommended
tons against other resorts, 1t is init
mated, will follow.
The applications of e. M. Cameron,

A Hair T God

There is this peculiar thing
about our Hair Vigor: it's a
hair food, not a dye. 1t
doesn't turn your hair sud-
denly black and make it look
dead and lifeless. But gradu-
ally the old color comes back
to your hair, all the rich,
dark color it used to have.
And it stops falling of the hair.
Even if your hair isn't COM
ing out, isn't turning gray,
isn't too short, isn't in the least
unsatisfactory, yet you certainly
want a fine dressing for it.
You can't get anything better
than Ayers Hair Vigor. It
keeps the scalp clean and
healthy, makes the hair grow
rapidly, prevents it from fall
ing out, and does not allow a
single gray hair to appear.

FAVOR NEN LABOR LAWS
RETIRING AND INCOMING LABOR
COMMISSIONERS ARE AGREED
AS TO THEM
O'DONNELL WILL CONCUR
In the Recommendations Made by
His Predecessor, Commissioner
McHaIe, as to Changes
in Laws.

John O'Donnell, the newly appointed
labor commissioner paid a visit to the
capitol yesterday afternoon.
The present incumbents of the office,
as the report for the biennial period will
show, accomplished a great deal of work,
and to have the general scheme carried
on when out of Office number of i'm
portant recommendations were made to
the legislature. Mr.. ODonneI is in IA
vor of all these, and states that he will
do all in his power to finish what has
been so well begun. He believes with
the present holder of the Office that the
child labor law ought to be remodeled.
The whole thing is a thing of patches,
and he hopes the legislature will take
action on the recommendation made to
have it changed.
He also wants the appointment Of a
separate inspector Of mines to be located
constantly at the mines. This, in his
opinion, is necessary because of the re-
markable growth Of the mining industry.
There are almost hundred mines now
in the state.
Another recommendation to the legisla-
ture that he favors is one to have the
law relative to accidents amended. En-
ployers ought to report the cause and
extent Of injuries.

Big SAVING TO STATE.
CLAIMED FOR THE PLAN OF shy
DER AND TORSON.

DER AND TORSON.
State Auditor Dunn, in speaking Of the
duplicate bills introduced in the house
and the senate at the capitol building
relative to a central board of control for
all the state institutions, said yesterday
afternoon that they were not generally
understood In the proper light.
In the first place the board, If establish
ed as provided by the bills, will not
necessarily do away with the board of
corrections and charities. This board will
practically be assimilated or Incorporate
ed by the central board, which naturally
will have wide latitude In the general
supervision of the work.
Mr.. Dunn says that there is mistaken
impression that the central board will
do all the buying for the state institu-
lions. This is a mistake. 1t will mere
ly supervise the buying, leaving the work
of making the estimates to local officials.
Bids will then be called for and home
merchants and manufacturers will have
an equal show with outsiders. One ad-
vantage Of this course, he says, will be
that home merchants who bid and win
out will have a chance to sell in larger
bulk, for staple articles, such as coffee,
sugar, ETC., will be bought In very large
quantities.
The auditor also says that one of the
oldest managers of a state institution In
Minnesota admitted to him and to the
governor some days ago that he knew
the bills, If passed, would save the state
at least 100000 a year.
