The April number of ''Scliool Spec
tator", the organ of the Sauk Centre
high school, is out and a very credi-
table one it is. The issue starts with
an excellent editorial leader on the
subject of combining the practical
with the theoretical education. ,The
magazine then recounts what has
been done in athletics since the pre-
ceding issue and includes an excellent
half tone of the 1913 basket ball team.
There are plenty of ''cute sayings"
and :'grinds" which are rather above
the average for publications of this
class. business Manager Leo Schoen-
hoif says the financial end of the pro-
ject has progressed satisfactorily thus
far and that he thinks the venture
will at least "play even.' The publ
cltion is credit to the school and
merits the hearty and generous sup
port of the public.

MUCH USE
IS TOLD
OF ASBESTOS
The Nevada Properties
Should be Worked

The United States Geological
Survey has recently issued a state
ment concerning the uses and mark
cts for asbestos. As several de-
posits are known to exist in this
State it would seem that it is worth
while looking up and getting onto
the markets. Last year the Ameri-
can concerns imported $4,000 tons
of this material from Canada while
only 4,4O3 tons was mined in Ameri-
ca. There is a steady demand for a
market. The report further states:
Asbestos is the most important
freproofing material known Its
fibrous structure adapts it to wide
RANGE OF applications from woven
/ Ifabrice. such as theater curtains and
articles of clothing, to asbestos
shingles. stucco, plaster, asbestos
wood, and various other forms OF
building material that render struc-
lures thoroughly tireproof. Its light
ness. strength, durability, and in
sulating properties against heat and
electricity give it special advantages
for use in constructing care and cleo
trio motor subways.
The most common uses OF ashes
tos are for asbestos paper, mill
board, pipe covering. and tagging to
inclose heat pipes, furnaces, and To-
comotives i'll order to prevent loss
of heat in transmission AS an non
conductor of heat it may be used
not only in the preparation of fire
proof safes and vaults but also for
cold storage and cooling structures.
Houses made OF asbestos materials
or coated with materials throughout
are not only warmer in winter but
cooler in summer.

Causes Another Row

Federal District Attorney McNab
telegraphed his resignation to Presi-

a request from Attorney General
McReynolds to postpone until next
autumn the white slavery cases
against Drew Caminetti and Maury
Diggs.
Caminetti is the son of the newly
ton and with briggs took two Sac
ramento society girls to Reno on a
lark though both men were married.
The men were arrested and brought
back to California where they are
now under Indictment for violation
OF the Mann white slave act
WASHINGTON June 23-Secre-
tary Wilson of the department of
labor took full responsibility to-
night for the postponment of the
trial in the Diggs-C -Caminetti case. the
basis Of sensational charges tele-
graphed to the president yesterday
by United States Attorney John L.
McNab, of San Francisco with a re-
quest that his resignation be accept
ed at once.
In signed statement, Secretary
Wilson said:
The attorney general postponed
trial in the Diggs- -Caminetti case
solely upon my request. |, therefore
am responsible for the postpone
ment. Mr.. A. Caminetti has but re-
Gently assumed the duties of COM
missioner general of immigration.

He asked me recently for leave of
absence to return to California to
be present at the trial of his SON
[ insisted that he remain here until
he become familiar with the immi-
grafton situation. | therefore sug-
gested the postponement of the
trial. 1t is nothing unusual for the
district attorney of that or any other
district to grant a postponement of
trial in such cases when an i'm
mediate trail would seriously incon-
venlence either party. The request
tor postponement, came from me
purely IN the interest of public pol

The immediate basis for the action
is with reference to the payments
on account of salary of the district
Judge. The law provides that each
county Shall pay its proportion &C
cording to the amount OF the assess

tends that the net proceeds of the
mines should be included in this roll.
