Commenting on Governor Eoerhart's
MESSAGE the Duluth Daily Herald
says:
There are few recommendations 10
the message that are not entitled TO
considerati by the legislature, but
the document is unfortunate in it
length. Its Is, 900 words make . pretty
stiff proposition for the citizen to take
up as reading matter, and the message
would have much more force, both in
the legislative chambers and through,
out the state generally, II it were con.
densed within at least . third OF tina,
space.
However, there is q whole lot OF
good, sound matter ia the document.
Much of the material is historical or
comparative in character, but it is 90
used as to bolster up the legislative
suggestions made by the executive,
and the lawmakers will find matter
there that will give them something to
think hard about, particularly in the
portions showing the standing Of
Minnesota among the states that are
most active in caring for their natural
resources.
So much has been said about the
natural wealth of the state that there
has been but little realization of the
riches. of other commonwealth.
Governor Eberhart's message points
out that while Minnesota has been
reaping a fine harvest from the de.
posiory under her surface, other states,
with less to start on, have been finding
means to develop what they had to the
greatest benefit of their people, and
that it would be we'll for the legis.
lature to take lessons from some OF
these other states regarding the
making of laws to govern the manage
ment of natural resources. The sug-
gestions are timely and important.
True to his promise, made at the
Brainerd meeting OF Dec: | and 2,
1910, the governor makes strong
demand for reapportionment. and
accompanies it by reminder to the
legisla tors that their attitude on this
question, by far the most important
before the present legislature, will be
watched from eyerp quarter of the
state. "Nothing but purely personal
and selfish reasons" he declares, can
be found for opposing respportion.
ment now, and be cites the declara.
,tions of the state Constitution as .
pledge to the people that justice shall
be done them in the matter of legis.
lative representation.
Regarding state land affairs and
immigration the governors recon-
mendstions are thoroughly sound.

The Governors Message

His suggestion for surveys OF The
geological and meteorological deposit.
md OF the waterways and water power
of the state Is one that should be
adopted and carried to conclusion,
oot only for purposes Of advertising
uinnesota's advantages but for the
more just and advantageous dlstri'
button Of immigrants. In keeping
with the scientific work in other lines
which is urged Is the classification
aud grading Of forest products, tina,
the state may reap the fullest possible
benefit from its remaining fores,
wealth.
T Particularly significant is that par,
Of the message that declares that "the
state has duties 10 the way OF i'm,
provement, drainage, forestry, roads
and general agricultural management,
not only in the interests Of the public
educational institutions, but in justice
TO settlers whose claims are surrounded
by public lands exempt from taxa.
ton" The state, declares the
governor, is the chief land proprietor,
and in view of this attitude there is
hope for those settlers in the northern
counties who have been handicapped
BY the apparent forgetfulness OF the
state that they must have means Of
getting the products Of their land tc
market and that while they are en-
gagged in building for the benefit Of the
whole state, they are entitled to share
whatever adv antsges the state can give
to its citizens. While the message
does not go so far as. to breach the
subject of taxation of state lands for
highway maintenance in sparsely
settled communities, it declares for
public highways through public lands,
q step that would be of inestimable
value to settlers and market com.
munities.
Following the principle laid down
by the late Governor Johnson, the
message OF a workmen's compensation
act, bill covering which is expected
to be introduced in the present session
based on the findings the commission
which Governor Johnson appointed
two years ago to investigate the cues
ton. The value OF such measure
must depend on the nature OF the law
itself, but the. recommendation is one
OF the best made by Governor Eber.
hart In his message.
Another important recommendation
is found in the section dealing with
taxation, where the governor proposes
that the tar on railroad property be
increased TO Whatever extent may be
necessary to make the assessment on
such property in equitable proportion

VILLAGE JOINS IN PIG HUNT
Farmer Offers 1t as Prize, but
Effects Recapture Himself.

Every able bodied man. woman and child
I'm Brookdale y. j., Joined in a pig hunt
yesterday as the guests of John Cole.
cole had been trying for more than an
hour 10 drive the porker into his pen, but
the pig was suspicious-it was so near
Christmas, you know-and just wouldn't
be penned. Thereupon Cole in a burst Of
recklessness said: Whoever catches that
porker can ave i'm, bacon, ham and
knuckles."
The words were no sooner out Of his
mouth than half the population OF Brook
dale began 20 gather at the Cole farm.
Some Of the pig hunters were armed with
ropes. some with butterfly nets and others
with fishing lines armed with sharp hooks
bsited with mits Of pork.
The pig took fright at this pursuing army
and ran all over the farm in his quest for
freedom. II finally reached the top of a
stone pile a half mile from the pen,
and there laid itself down TO rest. Cole,
who was in the forefront of the pig hunt
ers, crept up behind and seized the squealer
by the hind legs. lie retained his hold on
the pig until his son went TO his aid with
a bit OF rope. Then the pig was taken
hack TO the pen. Its ultimate fate is prob
iemAticaI-but turkeys are scarce in Brook
dale this winter.

dren too young for school so also and are
Americanized along with their elders.
The kindergarten method has proved
equally beneficial to mother and child.
Many Of the Italian women have been mar
ried at such an early age that they are
scarcely more than children. All the
games arc new to them, and, blessed with
the sunny temperament of the South. they
are capable OF quite as genuine a delight
as the little ones.
In the evenings a teacher visits the homes

the day Here again "A somewhat similar
method, though necessarily different In de-
tail. is employed. The teacher takes with
her a reproduction OF some famous paint
ings by an Italian master, and the lesson
centres around this. She tells them the
story Of the picture and perhaps little
about the artists life. Her visit is looked
forward To with much eagerness not only
by the family to which she IL going but
also by many of the other inmates OF the
tenement. On these occasions the neigh
bors frequently find excuses To enter the
apartment I'm which she is giving the les
son. and, OF course they are always invited
TO remain. The amount OF English for
