ernor Van SAINT has appointed Mr..
James A. Martin Of st. Cloud to
succeed him. Mr.. Lee took this
step because he found it impossi-
BILE to look after his own business
and the business of the state. He
is president of three banks and
interested in other enterprises
which demand his attention. He
will make his home at Long
Prairie, where he has lived for a
number of years.
Mr.. Lee was appointed men,
Der of the Board of Control April
l, 1901, for term of four years.
Previous to that time he had taken
an active part in the management
of state institutions and had been
a member of the Board of Mana
gers of several of them.
Mr.. Martin, who will succeed
Mr.. Lee, has been executive clerk
in the governors Office and was
chairman of the republican state
executive committee during the
recent campaign. He will become
member of the Board November
%, when Mr.. Lees resignation
takes effect.
Mr.. Lees letter to Governor
Van SAINT is, in full, as follows:
July %, 1902.-Hon. S. R.
Van SAINT, Governor of Minnesota,
st. Paul, Mimi: I hereby tender
my resignation Of the Office of
member of Board of Control of
state institutions, to take effect at
the end of the present fiscal year.
II wish to take this opportunity
to thank you for the very kind
and courteous treatment [ have
received at your hands during my
connection with your administra-
ton, and to express my apprecia-
tion of the high grounds you have
taken in considering questions
affecting state institutions. The
policy you outlined when I &C
cepted this Office, that these insti-
tutions should be kept out Of pol
itics and be managed upon bust
ness principles, has been rigidly
adhered to by the Board of Con-
troll, with your cooperation and
approval. I believe this policy is
approved by the taxpayers of the
state and will be appreciated by
the localities where the several
institutions are located when the
benefits of such management are
fully understood.
"The management of state insti-
tutions by local boards had neces-
sarily built up conditions that
would be somewhat disturbed by
the change to a central board.
There has been a great deal to
learn and an endless amount of
detail in introducing and adjust
ing the new system of doing bust
ness required by the Board of
Control act, and whatever success
the Board has met with in this
work is due to the support you
have given it, coupled with the
loyal and intelligent cooperation
Of the heads of the several state
institutions. I feel that the sys-
tenn is now we'll established and
the work going on with the insti-
tutions over which the Board of
Control has full control in a very
satisfactory manner.
II leave the work with many
regrets, but shall remember with
satisfaction the part I have been
privileged to take in establishing
in this state a practical and bust
nesslike system of managing its
public institutions, which I feel
will become permanent. My pri-
vate business will not admit of
my remaining on the Board of
Control longer than the date above
named"

gbimmie lfiuIIisan's Pipe Dream.

Ye talk about yer millionaires
From Vanderbilt ter Lee!
Why pal-dere wasn't one of 'em
Could hold light ter me,
Fer was de acknowledged king,
An dwelt in marble halls;
drove me horseless carriages,
An gave gran fetes an balls.
couldn't estimate me wealth,
Me jewels wuZ of de best,
De New York Central railroad wuz
De least ting possessed;
An when strolled along de street
De guys would stop an stare,
An say, "Dat's Chimmie Mulligan,
De lti-billionaire."
also wuz de fashion king
A front? Well should smile!
Why, if I'd gone widout me clothes,
Dey'd said it was de style;
Dey voted me de best dressed guy
In all United States,
An used me fer der model, when
Dey made de fashion plates.
De girls wud talk about me shape,
An call neither IDEAL"
An den dey'd stick me wild hatpins,
Ter see if wuz real;
Dey smothered me wild kisses, too,
No matter where I'd be;
An said wuz "too sweet ter live,"
So-thOught of KILN me.
What's dat? Ye tink I'm kiddin' We,
An dat its all joke!
Nav, pal-it's on de square wild me,
OATS right hopes ter choke!
But now We see, I'm on de hog,
An on it good an right,
Fer lost every ting I had,
While on drunk one night.
Ye see, one night bunch of us,
Goes out upon a spree;
De Vanderbilts an Goulds wuz dere,
Wild Russell Sage an me;
We must "a had million drinks,
Or somewheres dere about;
had ter hold me head up, pal.
Fer fear I'd spill 'em out.
Atlast we goes out on de street,
A-feelin' mighty fine;
An dere we sees some odder guy,
A-staggerin' down de line.
1t wuz me friend Carnegie, an
A-singin' wild all his might
"Dere's Coin to be Hot Time in
Dis Good Old Town Tonight"
tell We he looked on de bum,
Fer both his lamps wuZ black;
His sky-piece wuz all busted, an,
His tie wuz on his back.
Come on says he, ''let's get drink, -
"Sure ting we WILL" says I,
Fer wuz spittin' cotton balls,
wuz so awful dry.
Den down de line we goes again,
A-laffin' at Russell Sage,
A-tryin' ter sing dat chestnut bout
"A Bird in Gilded Cage"
A mummy in de dime musee,
Who heard him singin', said,
"If OATS usual noise on earth,
I'm dog-gone glad I'm dead"
An den we hits dat swell cafe
Dey calls Delmonico's;
Dey brought de drinks in by de barrel
We drank ON troo a hose.
A bunch of walters stood around,
Ter turn de faucets on,
An roll de empty barrels away,
When all de booze was gone.
Den got paralyzed fer fair,
An made a foolish bet;
An if hadn't done it, pal,
I'd been rich guy yet;
But got talkin' troo me hat,
An actin like Ounce,
An bet de gang dat could drink
A barrel of booze at once.
Dey LATED at me, but took de bet,
DE stakes were up,-an'I
Resolved to drink dat barrel of booze.
An win dat bet or die.
Hooked around, saw me hose,
An grabbed it by de spout;
But as raised 1t to me lips
ME.DOG-GONE-PIP
Yes, pal, I'd been a-dreamin', but
1t often makes me weep
Ter think of all de booze I'd had,
If had stayed asleep.
One minute was rich an great,
De next one was broke;
But after dis wants to know
De kind of dope smoke.

Barney Williams died rep. AZ nls
home three miles north of the Agency.
The last sad rites were performed by
the Catholic fathers and he was laid to
rest in Siletz cemetery Sunday. He was
sober, industrious citizen, was sick
only five days, and his death has caused
general sorrow on the reservation. A
very large number of sympathizers
were in attendance.
Mcdonald & Hall Bros. have ordered
carload of feed and seed wheat and
oats. We hope more land will be culti-
waited this coming season than for sew
eral years. We are urging our people
to use their money to buy stock, build
fences, raise grain and make general
Improvements instead of gambling it
away or spending it for intoxicating
liquors.
One might prognosticate from the
conglomerated heterogeneous mass OF
portentous clouds gradually ascending
above the undulating line of the ever
green forests silhouetted against the sky
in the west, also from the ambulosity of
the atmospherical bodies, the colorical
manifestations in the surrounding ether
and southerly winds that rain was in
evitable.
We stepped into the schoolroom last
Saturday evening on the occasion of the
