up to the inhabitants there to

Must Vaccinate.

The Minnesota State Board of
Health propose to keep up busi-
ness next winter if it should be
found necessary even to burn all
the lumber camps in northern
Minnesota, according to The fol-
lowing, taken from the Duluth
News Tribune: "School children
and teachers must be vaccinated
before they can return to school
at the close of the summer vaca-
tion. In addition al! lumberlnen,
mining superintendent and EN-
ployes of labor generally are or
|dered to have their men inocn-
lated. This was decided upon at
a meeting of the state board Of
health at ST. Paul Friday even
ing. They decided that that
neither teachers nor pupils could
return to school unless they can
produce a certificate that they
have been successfully yaccinated
since the year 1896, or, in lien Of
this, they must produce q certifi-
cate from some reputable phys
ician showing that they are i'm
lmune to- vaccination. School
boards in all parts of the state,
and officers Of boards Of health
have been notified to this effect,
and the state board is determined
that the rule shall be rigidly en-
forced. The order was made in
view of the fact chat smallpox is
technically epidemic throughout

zion is to be made an essential

tematically as the one central board, and
further argued that these separate man
agements could not reach the same high
results which one board could.
Curtis H. Petit, of Minneapolis, for
thirty years a member of the board for
the state training school, spoke against
the bill. He believed it would be DER
mental to the inmates of his institution
and work an injury in many ways to 9TH
ers as we'll.
The bill, which was introduced in the
senate by Senator Snyder is in direct
line with what Gov. Lind, in his final adj
dress to the legislature recommended in
the following terms, he being the original
advocate of such measure:
II am convinced that there should be
board of control for the management
of all these institutions. Such a board,
composed of experienced business men,
non-partisan in its character, the mem
bers receiving adequate compensation
for their services, and devoting all their
time and energies to the discharge of
their duties, would be vast improve
ment over the separate board plan, and
would result in a large saving to the
state annually, and this, too, without
in any way leSSening the efficiency of the
service to the inmates. The board would
be free from local and political inf1u-
enceS, and all purchases would be made
at wholesale and after receiving com
petitive bids"
Gov Van SAINT also favored the same
policy in his inaugural address. Politi-
cal lines have not apparently been drawn
on the present bill Its author is a Re
publican, but many of. ne most loyal
supporters it has in both houses are of
the opposite faith.
The bill, of which previous publication
has been made in the G l b e, provides
for board of control for all the state
institutions, appointed by the governor,
political observances being entirely ig-
nored in such appointments and in the
further carrying on of the work

PROVE A BOOMERANG.
Charges Against Fusion Members of
Soldiers Home Board

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Feb. S.-(Spec.aL)
A. l.. Van Osdel, president of the board
of commissioners of the State Soldiers
home at Hot Springs, emphatically denies
statements made in special, dispatches TO
Republican newspapers from Pierre to
the effect that zone result of the reorgan-
ization of the board of commissioners of
the soldiers home will probably be the
abolition of the presidents room at the
home. The dispatches went on to state
that Gov. Herried is not the man his
friends take him to be If he will tolerate
anything of that sort, and that he under
stands that the aceommoda tons at the
home are not so lavish that a room can
be reserved for the use of the president
or any other member of the board.
In his reply to this structure on the
fusion majority. on the board. Mr.. Van
Odsel, among other things, says:
81 want to inform the public that I
never occupied the so-called presidents
room at the Soldiers home. I was in
formed that this room was fitted up by
a former commandant for the accommo-
dalton of former presidents of the board
of commissiOners-all of whom were Re-
pubhc5ns. When elected president I-1e-
clined to occupy that reserved room dur
ing the sessions at the home and ordered
the sign taken from the door. The pres
dents room at the South Dakota Sol
sdiers' home is a thing of the past 1t
has long since been abolished
Thus the charges of the Republicans in
this connection have proved boomerang
to themselves.

ter opposition to the sheep men who he

section Of the state, and who could be

is no question that the incorporation of
the unorganized counties into those al

The bill introduced for bringing state
and mutual insurance companies under
control of the state insurance department
Is receiving considerable criticism. 1t is
alleged that an analysis of the bill shows
that part of its provisions are to throw
obstacles in the way of the organiza ton
OF new mutual companies, and to also
hamper outside companies in coming into
the state. AS these features are being
brought to the front, it is not likely that
the bill will become a law until it IS
pretty we'll riddled with amendments, to
allow all other companies the same priv
ileges as are granted to thO-e already
operating under the laws of the state.
There is no question as to the need of
a measure to bring the mutuals under
the control of the state insurance depart
mont, but there is no need of hedging
III the old companies with privileges not
granted to others.
