A FARMERS
INSTITUTE
And Good roads Convention will
be Held in Warren on
March 29th.

Last year marshall County had a
very live Good Roads Association
that did a great deal to stimulate
interest in this important matter.
The association still exists and
though the work has languished
somewhat, it is proposed now to take
it up agian with renewed vigor. It
is with that object in view that a
good Roads Convention and Farm
ers Institute will be held in this city
on Friday, March 29th. Other
topices of interest to farmers besides
good roads, will be taken up and
discussed by practical men. Prof.
Robertson, of the CrooksJon School of
Agriculture, has promised to be pre-
sent. Full program will be published
in next weeks Sheaf. In the mean
time every farmer in Marshall and
counties should so arrange
his affairs that he can come to War
rem on said day to take in the big
convention.

MONEY FOR
GOOD ROADS
Marshall County Gets $l2oo out
of the State Apportion.
ment. ..:

The state highway commission last
week announced it's apportionment
to. the counties of the state of the
S54, 900 provided by the state legisla-
lure for state roads in Minnesota.
The good roads cause has been
turthered to that extent. Marshall
County receives $1,000 by the decision
OF the commission, four other coun-
ties receiving the same amount, and
only seven counties receiving larger
sum not exceeding $1,000. Most of the
counties received amounts VARYING
from $500 to $1,000. The law provides
that on or before the first Monday in
December this year, the county audi
tor OF each county shall certify to the
highway commission that state
road has been designated, and that
twice the amount appropriated by
the state has been expended by that
county for such state road. The
various counties can then draw on
the state treasury for the amount
which has just been apportioned by
the commission.
Gustave Scholle, chairman of the
highway commission, makes the fol-
lowing announcement in connection
with the decision of the board
1.-The commission has been COM
PEELED under the constitution of the
state to give to each county at least
$500 whether they have designed a
state road or not, and in all cases
where the county board has even
failed to designate them we have
given the minimum amount. If, in
the future they will designate such
state road and put up double the
amount that the state apportions,
they can draw on the state treasury
for the amount. In those cases
where the county boards have. desig-
mated: state roads we have apportion-
ed the money on the basis outlined
in the act passed by the legislature
in 1905. We have taken into con-
sideration the extent of the undevel-
oped country and the difficulty of
building roads. Therefore, we have
given the northern counties more
than the southern tier of counties
because the act specified that con-
sideration. The commission spent
a whole month on this apportion-
ment and we do not feel entirely
satitied that justice has been done
to all the counties. But the COM
mission has been as hampered by the
law, as it is at present that it is at
present that it could do nothing
else.'

PARl9 HAS LIGHT AGAIN,
Electricians Strike Ended, But PubIic
Sees Future Danger.

Paris, March 1.-THE city resumed
it's normal aspect Sunday night ALL
the electric plants are working.
The public is alarmed at the ease
with which few hundred workmen,
at the instigation of the Confederation:
of Labor, are able to throw the popu-
lation into confusion, and the newspa-
pers print editorials demanding legis-,
lation which will prevent workmen en-
gagged in supplying a public necessity
from striking. 1t is pointed out that:
the electricians, now that they know
their power, may not rest content with
present conditions. It is significant
fact that the strike committee is still
holding meetings..

Not Punishable For Iroquois Fire
Ordinance Being Defective.

Danville, ILL.,, March 11.-Will ].
Davis was freed Saturday Of all legal
guilt for the Iroquois theater fire in
Chicago that cost 500 lives on Decem-
Der 80, 1908.
Judge Kimbrough, while declaring
that Davis might be morally guilty, de-
cided that he was not legally guilty,
because the Chicago building ordi-
nances were defective.
The jury, 80 instructed, promptly re-
turned verdict of not guilty, and the
sheriff was directed to set Davis free.
This deois1pn of the court makes it
practically impossible to indict Davis
again.
