School Officers Not Under Primary

The attorney general s Office on
inquiry has held that it is not
necessary under the law to file
petitions of nomination for Off
GERS of independent school dis
tricts. That while such petitions
may be filed, and the candidates
petitioned for a place on the
ticket, this does not prevent the
voters of the district from voting
for any other individual for school
officer, and that if someone out
side the list of names filed by
petition is selected, he is legally
elected school officer, regardless
of his failure to file a nomination

An Ingenious Device.

Found to be in Use in Minnesota
and Other States for Purpose
Of Fraud in Weighing.
The most ingenious and pernic-

found to be operating to create

sofa and Iowa, has been discover
ed by the Minnesota Railroad
and Warehouse commission,
which has issued a description of
it as warning to farmers, live
stock receivers and shippers,
grain elevators, railroad station
men and others to be on the look
out. 1t is a small piece of steel,
like the blade of pocket knife.
To what general use it has been
put the commission is unable to
say, but the fact that it can be
carried in the vest pocket and
used to increase or decrease the
weight of scale load according
to how it is placed under the
scale beam, prompted the com
mission to lose no time in making
known the fact.
J H. Foster, general superln-
tendent of the Milwaukee road,
while at Ortonville, two months
ago discovered the use of the
shrinker, as it is called. He i'm
mediately notified Judge Ira B.
Mills of the state railroad and
warehouse commission, who
called his associates, Charles f.
Staples and G. E. Elmquist into
conference, and Chas. Watson, a
special agent for the commission
was started through Minnesota,
Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois and
South Dakota on an investigation.
The nature of the device, the
inserting at time of weighing and
the possibility Of Immediately
withdrawing it and slipping it
into a pocket made it extremely
difficult to find instances where
there were other indications, but
Mr.. Watson reported that he had
found it in use in Iowa and that
it is made in small Wisconsin
town.
Chas. G Neale, state commits
sioner of weights and measures,
then made a test of the shrinker.
The effect, he reported, was tc
make a difference of 2 1-2 to per
cent, either way, in use on ordin
ary sacles and 10 per cent diff
ference on the new form of stock
scales.
G. E. Elmquist a member o1
the commission, says that in the
Ortonville case the evidence was
: sufficiently strong to justify
| prosecution, in his opinion, ane
this case will be presented to thu
attorney general for action. Mr.
Elmquist said that at present th'
offence was only misdemeanor
but that he favored law makins
