CHANGE IN ELECTION LAW.
New Method of Choosing Township Sup
erViSOrS.

At the regular town election mex
March change will be inaugurated
in the method of electing township
supervisors. During their last
session the members OF the Mime.
sofa state legislature altered the
old system greatly and the law they
created went into effect January LIST
Of this year.
As changed the law effects town
ship supervisors and justices of the
peace. Heretofore three superyis-
ors have been elected each spring
for one year, but this has been
changed so that in March, 1904,
three candidates will be chosen for
one, two and three years, and in
the future one supervisor will be
named at each election for three
year term.
The other change provides that
justices of the peace shall only be
elected once every two years, ex-
cept in case where it is necessary
to fill vacancy. The town clerk,
treasurer, assessor, constables and
road overseer will hold for one year
as in the past. Chapter Ga of the
general laws of 1903, as amended,
reads as follows:
There shall be elected in the
year 1904, at the annual town meet
ing in each town, three supervisors
one of whom shall be elected for
three CD years, one for two (2)
years, and one for one Cd year, SO
that one shall go out each year.
The number Of years for which each
is elected shall be indicated on the
ballot, and one shall be designated
and known as chairman. At each
annual town meeting thereafter one
shall be elected for three
years to fill the place of the one
whose term expires at that time.
There shall also be elected at the
town meeting in each town
one town clerk, one treasurer, one
assessor, two justices Of peace, two
constables and one overseer of the
for each road district in
said towns; but Justices OF the peace
shall be elected only once in two
years, except to fill vacancies.

white man would for a minute con-
slider the possibility of making a liV-
ing on such land, and with no tools,
seed or money to buy any, these In
dams are handicapped to the last
point of Encouragement. ~
A. P. Jones has been sent here as
special agent to instruct the In
ed as agriculturists. Many of the In
dams would be only too glad to take
up their line Of work for a subsist-
ence, but while crops are growing
they are starving, and as soon as they
have planted a little corn and pota-
toes they must go away to find work
SO they can subsist. Some are so lazy
and shiftless and of such a roaming
disposition that they will not try to
do anything else laborious.
Some twenty years ago, when they
settled on these lands, about fifty
small houses were erected, for which
the Indians paid out of their annui-
ties. Many Of these houses have
never been occupied to any extent,
and have gone to decay. The Indians
still cling to the old-time wigwam,
which they can carry with them, and
a dozen wigwams may be found to
one house among them today.
Probably the most potent reason for
retrogression among them is their in
ordinate appetite for intoxicants, for
which they will barter anything and
everything. The saloonkeepers con-
tend they have right to sell to
them, as in that sense they are citi-
zens and as much entitled to "life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness
as the white man. In their pursuit
Of happiness, getting drunk is one Of
the prominent essentials, and with
those who drink, the first considera-
ton is to get little money and the
next is to exchange it for ''frewater.''
The more money they get the more
they spend in tntoxicants. Suits have
been pending in the courts a long time
against dealers here for selling to the
Indians, but the courts either refuse
or neglect to consider them, and the
sale goes on. The Indians neglect
their homes and get drunk and sink
deeper into degradation, poverty and
Indebtedness.
1t is strange feature of the case
that when the liquordealer wants to
sell them liquor, they are Citizens y
but when charity is asked for them,
or an appeal is made to send one of
them to the home for predetermined,
they at once become wards Of the
government"
Mr.. Jones, as agent and adviser
has been tireless in his efforts to bet
ter their condition; but, with no es-
tablished system, with no authority to
restrict them in any way, no means
| to help them get started, and with the
saloons after all they earn and keep
| ing them from work, he has hope

WOlNAlV 70 SHOW
WHAT SHE. CAN DO
State Fair Management Giues Her Too Buildings III,
Which to Display Her Observation-Disclosures
Exhibits and Demonstrations Prom
use to Be Beneficial.

There was a time when q woman
was content to visit an annual fair,
and meekly follow husband or father
or friend as might be. and try to look
interested While he examined in an
experienced and critical way what
ever vitality interested him; the cat
tie, the machinery, the fruit, the
grain. But now, fully abreast with
that progress whose aim is achieve
ment and toward whose goal nothing
can stem the tide, woman has ac-
CURED her own interests at these
places, and has been so successful in
the management Of them, that each
year new responsibilities have been
given to her, and in consequence the
part she will play in the forty-ffth
annual state fair Of Minnesota will
far exceed any previous lines.
The fair management has wisely di-
vided the women's work into two
classes. The one force will occupy
the Woman's building and will repre-
sent the accepted idea Of a woman s
work in the industrial sense; the
needlework, the culinary art, etc.
The other class will be represented
Of the state and has been given Insti-
tute hall as it's home during the fair.
No Longer an Experiment.
The participation Of the Federation
Of Wonan's clubs in the annual state
fair has passed the experimental
stage, and the marked success of the
venture assures it's permanency.
One Of the clubwomen has aptly
said:
The study of domestic science is no
longer fad. The home is a fixed in
stitution, where there will always be
cooking, sewing and laundering"
And taking this principle as the
keynote Of their efforts they will Of
fer an interesting program during the
week, of demonstrated talks along
each Of these departments Of the
home science. Their room will be- the
| resting place and meeting place for
women, especially clubwomen, during
tractive as only such women can
make 1t. 3
The ladies' orchestra, ably led by
Miss Nellie Hope of st. Paul, and with
| Martin Luther, Jr, as soloist, will
alternate between the Woman's build
ing and the clubroom in giving pleas
ing concerts.
Some one exclaimed when the Fed
GRAFTON of Women's clubs was asked
to participate i4n the Womer1's work
of the state fair: This Is fair
for the masses and not the classes, :,
but the management feel so far justf-
fed in their venture that the club
women are going into the work this
year with finer quarters and a more
years experience, but not being
daunted by It. -
The aim Of each class is for knowI-
edge. knowledge is the great leveler
Of all distinction. and it will lift the

costing new possibilities to her; and
bring that one, more fortunate thru
advantages grasped and used, down
to the plane Of her, who in the hum
bier walk Of life, is filling her mission
with just as earnest a purpose.
The Improved Hospital.
Many marked improvements have
been made by the management this
year and owe their existence to the
efforts of the women. A signal victory
is the acquiring of the hospital cottage,
which is equipped in the most modern
and scientific way for an emergency
hospital. Last year clearly proved the
need of such a building, for where
there is large cOncourse Of people,
there is always great liability of acct
dents. Last year eighty persons re-
Quired immediate and skilful atten-
| ton, While the means of supplying
1t were meager and wholly inadequate.
Thru the influence of the Women's
Medical club Of Minneapolis the beard
of managers of the fair were induced
to erect the pretty building to be used
for hospital purposes. It's interior
will be divided into two wards-one
for men and one for women, three pri-
vate rooms, the operating room and
the kitchen. Each day two women
physicians will be in attendance with
the assistance of two trained women
nurses.
AS their. services are given gratui-
tously this force will be changed each
day.
| 1t is now the intention Of those In
charge to- give free hospital service,
but any funds being given as grateful
| acknowledgment of the services re-
ceived will be applied to further equip
the hospital.
Will Protect Exhibits.
Another marked Improvement over
last years arrangement will be the
and oil so long a menace to the build
ings: and the: exhibits. Mrs. M. L.
Luther, the superintendent Of the
woman's building, assures exhibitors
| that they need not feel the reluctance
i they formerly felt in sending their ar
ticles to the fair, and may be rea-
sonably sure of their safe return this
year. Many, women had bits of price
less lace and pieces Of embroidery and
have liked the public to see and en-
! joy, but. refrained from running the
/ great risk of their being destroyed =
| The woman's building will be most
4 attractive, with its decorations in the
colonial green and white. The bronze
fountain in the center will be sur
rounded by nine large iron vases
filed with Towering plants by courte-
sy of Mendenhall, florist. In one cor

iently placed to accommodate the

other cooling drinks.
