"PEOPLE SHOULD MARRY
i FOR LOVE" SAYS. JUDGE
Finehout, Bachelor Jurist, Tells What
Is Necessary to Make Marriage
Success.

r. Judge Finehout yesterday delivered a
little lecture on the duties of husbands
and wives. The audience was COM
posed Of Peter Boneska and his help
meet, Rose, who were brought into
court for an adjudication of their family
troubles.
Mrs. Boneska complained that al
though Peter earned $40 per month by
working for 1.-THE street railway COM
pany, she had been unable to get any
Of it for the support of the family. The
husband, said the wife, was a miser,
and the court was asked to compel him
to provide for the maintenance Of the
domestic establishment on Eva street.
The only funds available for meeting
the bills of the grocer and landlord
were the earnings of the older children.
The court gavefPeter some good adj
vice, which had its effect on the thrifty
husband. He agreed that If the judge
would forbear to punish him he would
pay his wife $40 per month for the sup
port of the children and herself, but he
said he would not live with her any
longer. He declared her temper was
more than he could stand.
Before the unhappy couple left the
courtroom the judge advised them to
see that their children married for love
alone. "There are too many loveless
marriages in the world" said the bach
elor jurist.

cow DOCTORS FALL OUT
OVER DISEASED STOCK
Conflicting State and City Au-
thorities.

Experts from the Minneapolis board
of health examined the herds of num-
Der of dairymen at Mounds View.
Ramsey county, and nearly 100 head
were condemned as having tuber-
culosis.
This was something of blow to the
dairymen, as the majority of them sell
milk in Minneapolis, and cannot Sc
cure license unless their herds have
been inspected and pronounced healthy
by the health department of that city.
The dairymen isolated the cattle con-
demned from their herds, but employ
ed another veterinarian to examine
them. The report was to the effect that
they were free from disease. An ap-
peal was made to DR.. Bracken, secre-
tary of the state board of health, and
he stands by the report of the veteri-
marian employed by the dairymen, and
will not accept the report of the Min
neapolis health department employee.
The Mounds View officials have serv-
ed notice on the dairymen that if any
of the cattle condemned by the Mime
apolis health department expert are
killed they will pay nothing. The law
provides that where cattle are killed
for sanitary reasons the state is to pay
one-third of the appraised value, the
township another, and the owner must
stand one-third the loss. The local
board Of health of Mounds View takes
the ground that the wholesale condem-
nation of cattle by the Minneapolis
veterinarian was spite work because
the dairymen went into court to con-
test the right of the Minneapolis health
department to make the dairymen of
neighboring counties pay for the en-
ployment of a veterinarian to examine
their herds.
In the meantime the Minneapolis
health department refuses to issue
licenses to the dairymen until they
have killed the condemned animals,
and at the same time causes their
arrest for selling milk without a Ii
cenSe.

RECORD is HIS BOND.
M. r. Kahn Has Proved His Fitness
for Duties of County Auditor.


for Duties of County Auditor.
One of the most interesting struggles
of the coming local campaign will be
the battle between the parties for the
election of the county auditor.
The issue is fairly Joined. The Dem
ocrats present Michael f. Kain; the
Republicans, Edward G. Krahmer, for
the most important trust in the gift
of the taxpayers. The question is not
that of partisan control of the office.
The real question before the people is
that of personal fitness for the duties
of an office, which means more to the
taxpayers Of st. Paul and Ramsey
county than any other department OF
the county government.
Mr. Krahmer, the Republican can
didate, is an estimable gentleman, who
has not demonstrated his ability sue
cessfully to conduct a public Office OF
the magnitude and Importance of the
auditors office. Mr.. Kahn has proved
that he is the man for the place. Prov
ed it beyond question and beyond
cavil. ss
Mr.. Kahn was three times elected to
the auditors Office, and in his hrst
year established the record which ne
sustained during his, entire s1encum- :
bency, and which no other auditor has
sustained. Mr.. Kahn ran the office
himself, and is known as the auditor
who was auditor in person. Not a
breath of scandal attached to his ad-
ministration, and when the incumbent
next succeeding him was removed from
office, 1t was Mr.. Kahn who was select
ed by unanimous choice to again take
charge of the office and the taxpayers
interests.
The men who pay !. the heaviest
taxes, and the poor men who pay taxes
on their little homes know and alike
respect the auditor who was auditor.
| The commercial interests trust him
and fully appreciate the character of
the service he gave the county. They
appreciate the courteous treatment
| they received during his incumbency,
as do the humblest citizens who had
any business with the office during
Mr.. Kain's administration, and they
will be with him when the polls are
| opened in November.
