ALL GAVE GOOD SERVICE
Retiring County Officials Made Most
Excellent Records.

The county officials who went out
Of office with the beginning of the
new year did SO with the best
wishes of all. In their several Of
fees, during their terms Of service,
they gave satisfaction. T. w. Hart
made an exceptionally good county
treasurer. He was always on hand,
accurate and neat with his books,
prompt, and pleasant to deal with.
He never made mistake.
Judge W. f. Hughes leaves the
office of probate in first class shape
after twelve years faithful service.
Few of his decisions have been APP
pealed from, and in nearly every
case where an appeal has been
taken he has been sustained by the
district court. He made one of the
very best judges of probate in the
state.
County Attorney Plymat gave four
years faithful service to the county.
He had a large number Of prOsecu-
! tons during that time, including
some of the first importance, which
agitated the county from one end
to the other. In him the county
officials always had Il careful adj
wiser, He leaves the office with the
respect and good wishes of ALL
| Sheriff Donahue is another official
who takes with him into private
! life the high regard and best wishes
of all. In his four years service
he showed himself to be man of
high minded purposes and spotless
character. There never was a
more good hearted sheriff, and every
one of the unfortunates who had to
be restrained Of their liberty in his
Jail will swear by him. He goes out
with a clear record.
! All regret the retirement of
County Commissioner Schultz He
gave to the duties of his important
office the very best thought and the
most active service that he possibly
could. He was fair, broad minded
and ever alive to the interests OF
the county.
1t is the general hope and expec
tatiCn that the new officials, who
succeed the retiring tried and train
ed public servants. will make good
and at the end of their terms de
serve the praise and commentator
OF the residents and taxpayers of the
county.

ST. Paul. Jan 4.-Moses Il. Clapp,
for the past ten years the junior SEN
ator from Minnesota, was unanimous
~ endorsed by the caucus OF RcpuD-
lican members of the Legislature Tor
another term of six years. The opp0-
sition. which was talking loudly few
days ago and working quietly almost
ND to TIE time Of the caucus, dlsap-
peared entirely when it was called to
order There was not suggestion oi
opposition No other name was pre-
scented. No motion to postpone the
caucus was made or considered.
Postponement was the hope OF the
opposition. But when the members
began arriving from all parts OF the
state. it became apparent that there
was nothing to the opposition. Such
large majority Of the members were
pledged to the reelection of Mr.. Ciapp
and their constituents were so strong
~ for him that they could not consider
any delay. The publicity given to the
quiet opposition during the past few
days had aroused the people in their
districts suffi GENTLY so that they knew
it was the wise thing politically for
them to nominate for senator the man
who was endorsed by the Republican
convention last summer.

WOULD ABOLISH OIL
INSPECTION DEPARTMENT.

In the case of Oil inspection. this de-
partment should be entirely abolished
and its work performed by the dairy
and food department. In the case OF
boiler inspection, this work should be
performed by expert inspectors in the
labor department, who should be
amply compensated for their work
and who should travel throughout the
state in the performance of their du-
ties. deyoting all their time thereto.
The fees collected should be based on
boiler capacity and paid into the state
treasury. With reference to the in
spection of logs and lumber, this
could be performed by inspectors un.
der the forestry commissioner, and the
4eea collected therefor turned over to
the state as in other cases
According to a conservative estf-
mate not less than 100000 now paid
for inspection service in the three de.
partments mentioned should be used
by the state for much better purposes,
and it is safe to say that the same in
spection could be made with oetter
results for less than half of the pres
ent cost. 1t should be distinctly I'm.
derstood that this is not reflection up
on the men in charge of this work
They are uniformly good men and dis.
charge the duties OF their respective
Offices as far as the lew permits. The
inherent defect is in the system itself.

scheme of reorganization definitely be.

has been exceptionally fortunate IN
securing honest and intelligent officers
and the fact that the state has made
such great progress with SO few
charges of Encouragement or graft is
great credit to the men in charge.
hut positively no argument in favor OF
the system and cannot possibly con-
vey any assurance for the future.
Bearing in mind the two essential eie-
ments of successful business admins
tration. fixed responsibility and active
cooperation there are several depart
ments of state that can be cited as
models. The dairy and food, insur-
auce, banking and public examiners
departments are all properly organ
lied with q responsible head in charge
Of each and deputies as well as in
spectors especially skilled in their
work and devoting all of their tine
thereto. In the board OF control and
tax commission every member is espe-
cially skilled in the performance OF
the duties of his Office, devotes all his
time thereto and the business of each
board is organized and transacted
along lines of efficiency and merit. In
all these cases there is no question as
to responsibility and if all the busi-
ness of the state were transacted
along similar lines the results would
unquestionably be far greater.
WOULD CONSOLIDATE
SOME DEPARTMENTS.
Perhaps the only remnant of the
theory that purely political considers
lions are sufficient for reward at pub.
lie expense is the present fee Office
There is no possible defense for the
existence of this Office today. Fees
collected do not belong to the officer,
but to the state, and the state owes
The officer q sufficient compensation
for his work. including necessary ex-
penses, and no more. No state officer
should be dependent for his support
upon the amount of fees collected. III
these fees aggregate a larger amount
than necessary to amply compensate
him for his work and necessary ex-
penses, he is appropriating money that
belongs to the state, and if they are
insufficient for that purpose. he is
rendering services to the state with
out proper compensation. Perhaps no
Offices in this state can illustrate this
more forcibly than those connected
with the oil and boiler inspection, and
surveying of logs and lumber. The in
spection OF Illuminating oils could be
turned over to the dairy and food de-
partment with practically no addi-
tional expense, which would result in
saving the state in fees disbursed for
the inspection OF oil approximately
$4,000 annually, the total amount OF
fees collected during the fiscal year
ending July 81, 1910, being S53,560.60.
The dairy and food inspectors should
test the oil in making their inspection
trips throughout the state. This
would make the inspection more rigid
and effective as the inspectors would
be free from local influence and indie
pendent of the amount of fees collect
ed, all of which should go into the
state treasury With reference to the
boiler inspection the same argument
can be used.

HOW OLD PEOPLE

At an advanced age waste is more

We want to say to every aged per-

delightful cod liver and iron tonic

manner Vinol retards waste and re-
places weakness with strength, Civ

If people in this vicinity only real

TUNIC POPULAR IN World OF fashion

Hats of brocade, satin, silk and tap
estry are yelled with net, gold, silver
or bronze gauze with great success.
Net hats are of one color, still, yelled
by another. Huge bows of brocade,
net or lace are yelled with other trans
parent fabrics that will increase the
glistening effect and double the color
value as trimming.
The plain chiffon guimpe, with or
without high collar, which has been
popular in Paris throughout the win
ter, has gained still greater favor this
spring and is emphatically prominent
for the first time here, 1t was designed
of course, with the aim of detracting
as little as possible from the Dutch or
French neck effects and yet Disgusting

scrutiny under the bright light of day,
and it serves that purpose admirably
but it has it's disadvantages. 1t soils

and insistently than lace or net. I'm
less it fits perfectly its wrinkles are
rather more Objectionable than those
of other guimp materials, and the col
lar stays, of whatever kind they may
be do seem to loom up more agrees
sively under the plain chiffon than
under any other sheer stuff.
The modish figure has a waist en-
larged to decrease the apparent size
Of the hips and to give an approx
mately straight and narrow silhoutte.
While this idea is not carried to an ex-
IRENE in all frocks, as in some of the
strictly first empire or directoire mod
els and in a majority of the models
launched by the sensational Poiret,
the old trim waist has certainly dis
appeared, and a small waist of we'll
defined curves looks oddly out of date.
Sleeves have not been radically
changed since last autumn, though one
finds good many tloppy draped ar
Irangements in chiffon along with the
