IRON DID NOT EXPLODE
Mrs. BoImgren Explains That Explosion
F%t Was Not Possible.


The J.ourna Is statement in Thurs
days, issue in regard: to. the explosion of
the gasolene iron in the home OF Mrs.
Bolmgren.. 17O1 Madison street NE. was
entirely a mistake, as the following state
ment by Mrs. .Bolmgren will show. N,
The fact IS there was no explosion at
all, just simply burning gasolene which
melted the safety plug that is intended
to make an explosion impossible. The
iron was one furnished by T h U r.
nal as a premium, and all our claims
that the iron will not explode have been
fully demonstrated by this accident which
was entirely due to the failure Of Mrs.
Bolmgren to notice and stop the small
leak of 'gasolene.
People having these irons will please
remember that what we have told them
ABOUT the iron is true and uneasiness. is
entirely unnecessary: Mrs Bolmgre1, { Who
I had the accident is now using the iron
[ and is thoroly satisfied. Her stat ement
is as follows: 49, III 1S .E'fA@ 3A.isA3

had started to gen4fste the iron to light, when
it caught sssak ofqgaselene, causing the
safety plug to burn out, which prevented the pos

NEW SALARY BILL
ON SAFE FOOTING
ARMORY BOND DECISION AT
FECTS CTTL SALARIES.
Both Acts Were Under Suspicion Of
Being Special Legislation - Mayor
and Aldermen Rejoice to Learn that
the Supreme Court Has Declared
One Legal. ....,.,,

Mayor James G. Haynes and TWEEN
ty-four aldermen are supposed to be
greatly pleased over the decision of
the. supreme court in the armory
bond case because the decision tends
to establish the attitude Of the SUI
preme court toward a class of. legis-
latiye acts which are constantly I'M
der suspicion. 4. Among these is the
act increasing the salaries Of the
mayor and aldermen, the former from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year and. the latter
from $500 to $500 a year. Both the
armory bond and the salary acts have
been declared by certain lawyers to
be unconstitutional In that they came
under the general head of special
legislation, which is strictly prohibited
by the state constitution.
It was generally admitted during
the discussions of both bills IN the
legislature that they were intended to
apply only to Minneapolis and the
bills were so Worded that other mu-
inequalities could not be affected un-
til they came In the Minneapolis class
as to population. Both measures are
undoubtedly special in effect, but
their form is. general
It has been conceded that sf the
armo bond act was sustained Sssthe
supreme court, the salary 1ncreA"e
measure would also pass muster, a.
the law makes a Substantial distinc-
ton" between the cities Of the state.
In view of the recent decision It may
be now taken for granted that, there
will be no attempt made to drag the
salary measure into, the supreme
court, nor to call the city officials to
task, for, recognizing the act as the
law. :,... :
. It is Interesting to note in this con
nection that there are but two alder
men left Of the five who declined to
accept the additional stipend voted
them by the legislature and by the
council. The quintet consisted OF
