Bismarck. y. D.. March 5.-Failure
Of state officials to file bonds and ia
file their oaths Of office is severely con.
demned by the special committee OF
the house which made its report yes
terday afternoon.
It is pointed out that officials who
fail to quality for their positions by
reason Of omission In the filing OF
bonds and oaths Of office are subject
to custer proceedings. and It Is further
contended that they should be COM
PEELED to toe the mark in this respect.
Many Of the state officers have failed
to respect the law bearing on the sub.
ject.

met Officer.

Washington. MarSh 5.-After ex-
President Taft had signed the bill.
creating the new department of la
Dor with a cabinet officer. it became
known that he was not very much in
favor of the move. In fact. he is Of
the opinion that the government al
ready has enough departments. and
he made this known in no uncertain
terms.
In signing the bill the president left
with congress a memorandum express
Ing the conviction that nine depart
ments arc enough to conduct the gov
ernment He said:
II sign this bill with considerable
hesitation, not because l dissent from
the purpose of congress to create a
department of labor. but because
think that nine departments are
enough for the proper administration
of the government and that / think
the new department must be created
with the reorga nization of all depart
ments. The distribution of bureaus
between the existing departments is
far from being economical or logical
and If there is one thing that is need
ed in the present situation it Is a re-
organization of our government on
business principles and with a view to
economy In the administration of the
regular governmental machinery.
Il forebear. however, to veto this
bill. because my motive in doing so
would be misunderstood. There is no
provision in the bill itself for a
recommendation by the head Of the
new department as to the reorSaniza-
tion of bureaus that may itself lead
to a general reorganization, which Is
SO much to be desired"

the change in form on the grounds of
it's being too much of an advanced
form Of government for cities the size
Of Williston.
