HAUGDALH RESIGNS.
The Butter Expert Leaves the State En-
plOy.

Sam. Haugdahl, the greatest but
ter maker the world has ever pro-
duced, and about the only man who
could hold State Office on merit
and not on politics, has resigned
his Office as State inspector OF cream
cries. Sam was appointed to the
Office by Gov. Lind because of his
true ability. He did not ask for
the Office. The Office came to him.
When VanSant was elected, he let
Sam out, but when the storm of in
dlgnation overlook him, he prompt
ly appointed Haugdahl to his former
position, which he has since held.
Buttermakers say he has filled
his Office with the greatest credit
doing his duty fearlessly, and doing
more than any other man in the
State to build up the standard of
buttermaking in Minnesota cream
cries. But the State pays wages on
the basis of a politician S worth and
the best they could do in this Office
was 500 per month. Surveyors of
logs and oil inspectors got steen
thousand dollars year for drawing
their breath but the man who could
beat the world at Paris was paid a
measly salary. He has received
dozens of tempting offers from
creamery supply houses, al offer
ing far greater compensation than
the State could pay. These were
all rejected. But there is limit,
and last week the Fox River Butter
Co., Of Aurora, H.. offered him
position at salary greater than
the State pays it's dairy commission
er and Sam. did the natural thing:
he accepted and resigned his posi-
ton with the State With the new
company he will have charge of all
their business in Minnesota and
the two Dakotas, and we are pleased
to state will continue to reside aud
make his headq quarters in St. Peter.
