The reclamation of the wet
lands by drainage should continue.
"A complete and comprehensive
fire protection organization should
be Installed covering the entire
district from Cook county to the
Red River of the North.
| Common schools should be
maintained, and if frontier COM
munity is not able to support such
a school, then the legislature could
make an appropriation which may
be distributed by the local and
state authorities and within reason
able safeguards.
Our laws should be further
amended authorizing the state
auditor to hold monthly sales of
state lands in all counties where it
would be advantageous to do so.
The building of roads, drainge,
forest fire protection and schools
are undertakings of such magn1-
tude that private enterprises should
not be called upon to undertake
them. The enactment of laws,
along the lines suggested above,
may not entirely satisfy all critics,
but 1 believe they will be valuable
aides to the sale of lands, and the
settlement and Development of
those districts where the state trust
funds lands are largely located. y
He renews his recommendation
that separate state land depart
ment be established.
An interesting table is the re-
port showing the amount each
county has paid the state in taxes
and the amount each county has
received from the state in the form
of apportionment of the general
school funds and special state aid
to high, graded and rural schools.
Seventy seven counties have re-
ceived more from the state than
they have paid in taxes and only
eight-Cook, Hennepin, Itasca,
Koochiching, Lake. Mahnomsn,
Ramsey and St. Louis-have paid
more than they received. The
total sum paid into the treasury
from the counties during the last
fiscal year was $3,106,99 and
the amount paid back was 81 ,962,-
sos. Ramsey paid S329,825 and
received $157, 919; Hennepin paid
$543, 43O and received 1926, 946; |
St. Louis paid $691, $50 and re-
ceived $16O,74O. This does not
:
include railroad taxes, of which the
ore railroad paid about 81, 27o, 900
on St. Louis county business.
The report recommends that
instead of reducing the tax levy on
account of the surplus in the
tresury part of this be used to re-
deem the new capitol certificates
now held by the state trust funds.
This would remove the necessity of
selling any of the bonds held by
the state and furnish plenty of
money to loan to counties, schools
districts and municipalities. - 4,

Increased Price Of Elk Teeth.

During the last five years the value
OF elk teeth has more than trebled,'
said western traveller at the Fred
eric. according to the St Paul Dis
patch In 1904 you could get any num-
Der OF fine specimens in Idaho, Mon.
tana, Washington and bordering states
for $3.50 apiece. Now you will pay
from $3.50 to $40, and they are hard
to get for even that. The Apache,
Sioux, Comanche and Chippewa lndI-
ans used to have dozens of them in
their possession and traded them for
trinkets But the redskin got wise TO
their value. and you can buy them
from regular dealer cheaper now
than from the Indian. The passing
of the elk and the great demand made
by the members Of the Elk lodge for
teeth for emblems have boosted the
price"
The traveller recited an incident OF
an Oklahoman who bought robe COW
cred with elk teeth from a Wichita
Indian for 500 He cut off the teeth

After dinner silent save for the
merest courtesies, Mary Goodwin

when he would return, and would
have waved her a farewell. Now he
did not even glance back at the win

last time he had kissed her. several
months before, her passive indiner'
ence was taken by HIM AS evidence
that the caress was unwelcome? Eu'

Now his wife wondered where and
how he spent his frequent evenings
away from the home where she sat
alone mourning for little grave only
six months old and which was surely
his grief as well as hers, She resent
ed the transientness OF his sorrow.
Could he think a mother could so soon
forget? At first the mutual passion
of loss had bound them more closely
together, But finally. as she resented
his attempts to bring life back to It's
old gladness, they fell apart. She
