IMPORTANT RULING MADE
BY U. 5. la LAND OFFICE
All Citizenship Papers Must Be Taken
Out in County Where Applicant
Resides.

Since the change in the law in
1906 as to the manner of persons
declaring their intention to become
citizens of the United States and to
become citizens, the idea has been
that such declaration of intention to
become full citizens might be in any
part of the judicial district in which
the applicants resided. Recently
the Department of Commerce and
Labor, having control of all matters
in relation to citizenship, has ruled
that declaration to become a citizen
must be made in the county wherein
the applicant resides, and all pro.
ceedings taken to become citizens O
the United States must be made in
the county in which the applicant is
an actual resident.
It appears that all papers taken
out, whether declaration of intention
or final papers, in counties other
than those in which the applicant
resided, are void.

GAME WARDENS' MEETING
WAS HIGHLY INTERESTING
Wardens of State at St. Paul. Went Record as Favor
ing universal License" Law, Protection of Fish
in Great Lakes, Etc.

The meeting of the game war
dens of the state, which was held
at St. Paul Tuesday, was a very
successful one, in every respect.
Some thirty-seven wardens were
present, and the members of the
state game and Fish Commission
were on hand, to see to it that the
boys" were properly cared for.
The papers which were read by
the differe mt wardens were product
i've of much that was good, and
all were of surprising excellence,
and brought out some discussion
that showed plainly that the class
of men who are now enforcing the
provisions of the state game and
fish laws are possessed of more
than the average executive ability.
In fact, the meeting was one of
the most harmonious, good-natured
gatherings it has been the fortune
of the writer to attend.
Strong resolutions were adopted
at the meeting, as follows:
Resolved, by the game wardens
of the State of Minnesota, in Conven-
ton assembled
First, That the rapid depletions
of the commercial fishing in our
Great Lakes calls for vigorous
measures from every citizen of this
state as to their protection; that
while the federal government has
propagated the fish and planted
them, the states interested have not
appreciated the responsibility placed
upon them, and have utterly failed
to protect such fish, by allowing
them to be caught in the spawning
season and before they mature. Be
it further
Resolved, That we believe that
federal control is the only salvation
of this problem, as we'll as the prob
lem of saving our migratory birds on

: thanks to Executive Agent Avery

thought in calling this meeting and
bringing together the different war
dens so that they could compare
notes and discuss various matters of
interest to all; and we believe that

call on our senate and house mem

money for the propagation of our
food and game fishes, believing, as
we do, that for every dollar ap-
propriated by the State of Mime

to the citizens.

.BELTRAMI COUNTY GETS
$4,000 FOR HIGHWAYS
$72,650 Divided According to Amount
of Work to Be Done
on Roads.
To All Brothers:


highway commission yesterday ap-
portioned $72,65O to the various
counties of the state to assist in the
construction of roads during 1908.
The money will be expended on
designated state roads, the counties
agreeing to expend twice the amount
allowed by the highway commission
in each case. This money will be
spent on roads built according to
specifications approved by the COM
mission and designed to insure good,
permanent roads.
In most cases, the counties will
receive the amount asked for in re-
spouse to letter recently sent to
the equity auditors requesting infor-
nation as to the amount the coun-
tics into1ld to opcuu on otdIe roads
this year. In some case, however,
the amount asked for had to be re-
duced owing to the constitutional
requirement that all counties must
be included in the apportionment
and fixing a minimum of one-half of
1 per cent of the entire fund for
each county. This makes the mini
mum allowance this year $3.50,
which was made to all counties from
which no requests for share of the
fund had been received. The con-
stitutional amendment which will be
voted on this fall eliminates this re-
striction, so that if the amendment
is adopted the fund can be used to
better advantage, because then all
of it will be distributed among the
counties which are prepared to make
use of it. Under the present sys-
stem, the minimum apportionment
made in any year remains to the
credit of the county indefinitely and
cannot be used for any other pur-
pose.
The highest amount which the
commission was able to appor-
ton to any county was $1,000, own
ing to the limited amount available
for distribution by the commission.
This fund is in addition to the reg
ular road and bridge appropriation
passed by the legislature, amount
ing to $4,000, which was appor-
toned to the several counties by
the legislature and over which the
highway commission has no control.
The reports of the amount counties
expect to expend on road work
this year shows that large amount
of this work will be done, St. Louis
county reporting an expected ex-
penditure of $115,OOO, Hennipin
county $4,000 and Ramsey county
$4,000, while some of the other
counties also reported large amounts.
The amounts apportioned to the
several counties is given below,
those not mentioned receiving the
minimum allowance of $3.50.

AMONG THE DOCTORS.

The secular press has announced
from time to time, and it is the
unwritten law that religious creeds
and dogmas shall be confined to
church and UNCONVENTIONAL publ
cations. This fact is almost as we'll
known as the very existence of the
newspaper, and yet there are some
eminent gentlemen ald ladies who
will persist in spite of all this to
venture upon the generosity of a
newspaper publisher with religious
opinions. Bible students have cal
culated the age of the world to be
5000 years. Scientists claim hun
dreds of thousands, but 5000 is
enough to show that the world is
full of religious doctrines and that
none has ever yet prevailed to that
extent that others must acknowl-
edge its divine right. Even those
which thrsyed with an alliance of
State have never demonstrated
their aIl-pervading influence and
power, and why is it the little

ALL ARENDEMoCRATs.

1t will be recalled at once that
they are all Democrats. Not the
same kind, yet under the broad
banner of Democracy. Cleveland
has never been denounced from the
White House for any misdeed as
a malefactor, undesirable citizen
or other culprit. In fact, there has
never been great interchange of
views between the present execu-
tive and his predecessor.
Andrew Carnegie is on the 'most
favored nation" footing in t b g
White House. While here recently
he urged the President to the pres
idency of the Carnegie National
Institute when he left the White
House, and told him he could have
all the money he wanted to extend
its scope of influence, but the Pres
ident declined at the time.
James j. Hill is a recent convert
to the inner sanctuary.
