ton commissioner by the state immi-
grafton board in 1907, when the de-
partment was first organized. He
has held the Office ever since. Born
in Markham, Ont, July 6, 1862, Mr..
Welsh taught school in Canada when
he was a young man and later went
to Boston, Mass. In 1880 he came
west to appraise lands for Boston
land company His eyesight failed
him and after he had consulted spe-
cialists, resigned his position with the
company and went to Morton, MINI.

restaurant of the Minneapolis & St.

the Morton village council for some
years, and was chairman of the Re-
publican central committee Mr..

With the completion of the schedule
with last Saturdays game with the
Creighton university team of Omaha.
the ST. Thomas eleven hung up their
moleskins, packed their cleated shoes.
and put away the padded jerseys af-
ter completing the most successful
season in the history of football at
the Midway school. One of the great
est teams that has ever worn the pur-
pie and gray of the st. Thomas school
has passed into history with right
to be proud of the enviable record
which they have left behind them
Under the superb leadership of Coach
Ryan they have met and defeated some
OF the fastest collegiate teams in he
son with a clear claim to the state
championship. AS in 1910 the only
| team to dispute this claim with the
Saints was the Carleton team, but this
year they have not the clear record C
show as have the Saints. The st
Thomas team has gone through the
entire season without having a defeat
chalked up against them and present
record seldom attained by any team
that of not being scored on for the en-
tire season. The goal line of the st
) Thomas team has not been crossed in
two years and in this time but 81,
points have been scored against them
, these having been secured by the aer.
l ial route. The Carleton team which
, tied with the st. Thomas team for tho
championship of the state last veal
> has not been as successful this yea,
3 as last.
