MINE BUREAU is ADVISED.
Auditor lverson Calls Attention to
Mineral Possibilities.

st. Paula recommendation thar
the work of the school of mines at
the state university be extended and
a state bureau of mines be organized,
which will aid the state in the care
and management of the minerals on
state lands and furnish information
and analysis of ores found on private
lands, is one of the features of the BIZ
ennial report of State Auditor Iverson.
Mr.. Iverson calls attention to the
figures on ore shipments for 1910, that
of the 42,736,302 tons mined and ship
ped from Michigan, Wisconsin and
Minnesota mines, 30,351, iS2 tons, or II
per cent, were mined and shipped from
Minnesota, and that 60 per cent of all
the iron ore used in the furnaces in
the United States now cotaes from
Minnesota.
The state tax commission May 1 list
ed 1,347, 596,291 tons of iron ore on the
known iron-bearing lands of the state,
and this is being increased each year
by new explorations. The possibilities
of the use of the vast peat beds in the
state are also cited.
Mr.. Iverson, therefore, considers
Minnesota one of the greatest produc-
ers of mineral wealth in the Union,
and he believes the school of mines
might be made Of much practical use
to the people by bringing it in close
contact with mining explorations and
actual mine developments.

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six
months old he broke out on his head
with little bumps They would dry
up and leave scale. Then it would
break out again and it spread all over
his head. All the hair came out and
his head was scaly all over. Then his
face broke out all over in red bumps
and it kept spreading until it was on
his hands and arms. bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time. He
had it about six months when friend
told me about Cuticura. I sent and
got a bottle Of Cuticura Resolvent,
cake of Cuticura Soap and box of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to improve.
He began to take long maps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles of Resolvent, two boxes of
Ointment and three cakes of Soap he
was sound and well, and never had
any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. / don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Soap several times since to use
for cuts and sores and have never
known them to fail to cure what put
them on. I think Cuticura is a great
remedy and would advise any one to
use it. Cuticura Soap is the best that
I have ever used for toilet purposes"

SEED FOR FIRE SUFFERERS.

Legislature to be Asked for Aid for
Northern Minnesota Settlers.
Duluth.-Money will be needed to
purchase seed for the settlers around
Baudette and Spooner and other local
tiles that were fire-swept in that Sec
ton of Minnesota and the state leg
islature will be asked to make an
appropriation to provide for it. I'm
less the state does something of this
kind, the burned out settlers will have
no seed to plant. The people of the
state have contributed money, food
and clothing to put the burned out
farmers in position to take up life
anew, but they are without the means
to make ready to put in the spring
crops. Representative Mattson, of
Roseau county will introduce bill
providing for an appropriation to pur-
| chase the required seed.
81 have confidence that the state
will make an appropriation adequate
for providing seed for the settlers
who were burned out last fall in
northern Minnesota and l would sug-
gest that the work of selecting and
, distributing the seed be given over
to the agricultural department of the
state university" said w. A. Nc
Gonagie, chairman of the Red Cross
Northern Minnesota relief committee.

TRAIN IS HELD UP
LIFE OF ONE NEGRO PORTER is
TAKEN AND ANOTHER Is
SHOT DOWN.
OVERLAND LIMITED ON THE S. P.
One Hundred Passengers Robbed by
Two Masked Men Near
Ogden.-Posse in
Pursuit.

Ogden, Utah.-Southern Pacific
train No. 1, the Overland Limited,
westbound, was held up by two masked
bandits at Reese, nine miles west of
Ogden. One negro porter was shot
and instantly killed and another port
er was MORALLY wounded A passen-
ger was slightly wounded.
One hundred passengers on the train
were relieved of their valuables. The
robbers did not attempt to enter the
express car, but devoted their entire
attention to the Pullmans, where they
made rich haul among the California
bound passengers, holding the train
for more than an hour. The train pro-
ceeded westward. No passenger es-
capped the robbers and the trainmen
also lost their money and jewelry.
The sheriff and police department
were Immediately notified and posses
left the city for the scene of the hold
up in automobiles and on a special
train. Posses from the nearby towns
are working toward Reese.
Two masked men stopped the train
at the little watering station by throw
ing the red light on the signal stand
toward the approaching locomotive.
AS it came to standstill, the bandits
covered the engineer and fireman with
their revolvers and held them until
the conductor ran up to investigate
the delay. He, too, was placed under
guard. One of the robbers left the
trainmen in charge of his companion
and started through the train from
the forward end. He encountered two
porters on his way and when they dis
regarded his commands he shot one
down and wounded the other. A cur
ious passenger also was wounded, it
is said The shots aroused the oc-
cupants of the cars and when the
bandit appeared with an open sack
and a menacing pistol the passengers
were perfectly willing to contribute
to his collection. He went through
the entire train, stopping at every
berth and making a deliberate search.

daughters of Bishop Wayment of the
Mormon church at Warren, the high.
waymen drove toward the city.
This is the second train robbery &C.
curing within 10 miles of Ogden in
the last six months. On June 27, 1910
at midnight, an Oregon Short Line
train was held up and robbed at Five
Points crossing, just north of Ogden
The robbers went through the smok.

mans. In both cases tall and short
built men conducted the hold-ups, in
much the same manner.
A posse of officers heavily armed
have trailed the two bandits to point
four miles beyond the scene of the
holdup. They are believed to be
headed toward this city.
The money loss among the passen
gers was from $4,000 to $4,000. ;

EXPENDITURE OF $1,ioo lLLsGA
Public Examiner Criticises Mainte
nance of State Fair Restaurant.

st. Paul. - An expenditure Of
S1,1o0 by the state fair board fol-
the maintenance of restaurant in the
basement of the administration build.
ing during fair week, at which Off
GERS and their families and other in.
vited guests ate their meals, is crit.
icized in report made to the gov.
ernor by Public Examiner Schaefer.
Mr.. Schaefer says there is no warrant
in law for the payment of the expens.
es of any other than public officials
and this expenditure by the board
which is equivalent to the payment OF
expenses for the people who ate Their.
pended should be refunded.
The report quotes from the minutes
of the board providing an appropria,
ton of $1,1O0 for this purpose, the din.
ing room to be run during fair week
at which officials, including the secre
tary and treasurer of the society, and
| such guests as may be determined on
the judgment of the officers would eat
Another resolution extended the same
privileges to the other members OF
the board, another to E. w. Randall
S. H. Bezoier, E. E. Gray, T. H. Shul
len, Col. A. T. Wright and their wives
and another to Miss Bergman, Mr.
Cook and Miss Cox.
Mr.. Schoefer questions the legality
of the payment of $500 paid by the
state fair board towards the expenses
OF the conservation congress.
The fair board justified this expen.
diture on the ground that the congress,
which brought President Taft and Col.
onel Roosevelt to St. Paul and to the
fair, benefited the fair much more than
the amount of this expenditure. Mr.
Schaefer says that he asked the at.
torney general for an opinion on this
question Dec. 10 and so far no answer
has been received, but he hopes that
his successor will get the opinion and
transmit it to the governor.
The report recommends that the leg
islature provide for the employment
of competent person as a special in
vestigator during the fair week, that
it fix the salaries of the members OF
the board of managers and other off
GERS and provide for their expenses
that it abolish passes or establish limi
tations, and that it provide a coming
ent fund which is not to be exceeded
under penalty,
The report mentions, however, that
all passes were abolished by action OF
the board last winter. This, however
is not binding upon future fair boards
The report gives a detailed state
ment of the receipts and expenditures
during the past year. The books were
found correct and the financial state
ments correspondent to those previous
ly published.
The inventory shows the property Of
the state fair to be worth $1,364,562
OF this $735,525 is for buildings, $316,
$50 for real estate, $189, TIA is for other
permanent improvements, $3O,34S cash
and the balance in personal property

BANK LAW is DECLARED VALID.
Supreme Court Upholds States in De.
mandinq Guaranty.


manding Guaranty.
Washington, D. c. = The bank guar
anty laws of Oklahoma, Nebraska and
Kansas were declared constitutional
by the supreme court of the United
States.
The opinion of the court was an
nounced by Justice Holmes. He said
the main objection to the laws was
that the assessment of banks by the
state to create fund to guarantee
the deposits in other banks took pri-
vate property of one bank for the use
of another without compensation.
Admitting this, Justice Holmes said
that there were more powerful con-
siderations on the other side of the
question.
"In the first place." said Justice
Holmes, 'it is established that an ul-
terror public advantage may justify
a comparatively insignificant taking of
private property for what, in it's i'm
mediate purpose, is private use."
