Schaefer had shown himself SO capable

women, the commission form of city

gubernatorial nomination may go to

BIG TIMBER CUT.

From figures furnished by the
Northern Pine Manufacturers assoc
iation and individual hardwood deal
ers the timber cut in Minnesota for
the year 1912 will be 2,OO0,OOO,OOO
feet. This includes all of the soft
and hard woods and the wood that is
small enough to manufacture into
lath. The saving season is on in
force, most of the logs having been
shipped to the big mills.
Lumber company crews have been
pulling logs off sandbars all summer.
In many places, especially about Cass
Lake, there have been many millions
of feet of timber that have GILL
poked" on the sandbars and banks
for several years. This timber is be-
ing salvaged as fast as it is possible
to operate. The lumber thus Sc
cured, it is believed, will materially
augment the cut.

is manifested in the notification exer-

place at the White House tomorrow

able, Mr.. Taft will receive the mott
fcation committee on the rear por-
tico of the executive mansion, which
overlooks the ellipse and down past
the Washington monument toward
the Potomac. He will speak from
the portico, with the committeeman
grouped below him on the lawn. At

STATE IS PROSPEROUS,

The state fiscal year closes today.
Standing and special appropriations
provided by the 1911 legislature, ag-
gregating s7,662,9O0, become avail
able tomorrow. In this is included
$4,000 for the contingent funds of
the various state offices.
The road and bridge fund has
1927, 900 ready for use, and a little
more is still to come from counties
which have not reported their tax
settlements. There is in the state
treasury S1,51S,2OO in the general
revenue fund for use of schools.
Ramsey, St. Louis and Hennepin
counties came to the rescue of the
state in the closing days of the ifs
cal year and made advance pay
ments on their June tax settlements
so that the general revenue fund
will not show an overdraft of $780,
600 as had been anticipated. St..
Louis county sent in $4,000; Ram
sey county 100000 and Hennepin
county 100000. AS 100000 is to
be transferred from the University
support fund to the general revenue
fund, the latter will appear with a
balance at the beginning of the new
year.
w. J. Smith, state treasurer, today
sent out $10S,000 to country banks
to be retained until the school ap-
portionment in October.

that his friends will begin mapping

St. Paul, July 3l.--On account
Of the great scarcity of harvest hands
in the northwest and the threatened
shortage Of help in gathering the
immense crop which is now practi-
cally assured, railways may be asked
Of the state free employment agen-
cies which Minnesota conducts, will
try to show the roads that they can
better afford to take men to the
fields without price than they can
to have the harvest go ungarnered.
The railway laws of Minnesota may,
however, prevent free rides.
J. H. Wilson of the St. Paul state
free employment bureau, is quoted
as saying that $4,000 men are needed
to gather the crops of the North
west and Canada. Men are being
sent from as far east as Buffalo, N. Y,
through the St. Paul Office to harvest
fields. -.--..-. --l.- s-..~-. O.. ... .-.
1t is expected that the lack of
men will be felt more keenly in three
weeks, although calls are now comm g
for men from many sources. In some
places they are paid as high as $3.50
q
generally are taking a keen inter-
est in the effort to get men, because
they know that the farmer must have
help at this time in order to realize
the splendid prospects which have
excited the imagination of every
resident of the Northwest this sum-
mer. The railways are reporting
shortages of men for their own work
in the west. A large amount of
railway construction is being under
taken north and west of St. Paul and
the men who usually can be found
in this part of the country are now
at work somewhere.
LabOrers are needed at once in
South Dakota, 1900 being the num-
Der needed around Watertown alone.
A hundred and twenty-five men,
hired by the St. Paul road yester-
day for section work on the double
tracking of the main line in West
ern Minnesota, left Minneapolis last
night for Montevideo. Only three of
the passengers were on the train
when it pulled out into Montevideo
before noon today.

On the st. Paul between Minneapo-
lis and the South dakota line Sat-

st. Louis, Mo-, July 31.-The
Southern hotel, for many years one
of the best known hotselries in the
country, closes it's doors tonight. The
closing of the hotel is said to be due
to the disinclination of the proprie-
tors to renew their lease and the fail
ure of the owners of the property to
find another lessee. The future of
the hotel is in doubt, but it is gen.
orally believed that it will be re-
opened.
