nesota was introduced and passed by
the House. 1t is the belief of this
Legislature that a great saving may be
effected in managing the affairs of
the state government by tire consolida-
tion of several of the state depart
ments and bureaus, general read
justment of salaries. the eliminating
of Unnecessary employees. and the in
stallation of more up to. date and
efficient system of accounting in the
several state departments The pas
sage OF the bill establishing this new
Committee appointed by the Speaker
of the House and Lieutenant Governor
will eliminate number of boards and
offices which are now filled by guber-
material appointment, and thus instead
OF building up the governor s machine
would tend to weaken it.
The plan to establish state public
utilities commission in Minnesota and
give it authority over all the public
utilities in the state met with stren-
uous opposition, and was killed yester-
day. Minnesotans prefer to control
their own local gas. water. electric
light. and steel railway systems,
rather than have them controlled by a
body of men appointed bv the COVER
nor and sitting in st. Paul. The
bill provides for three fat political
jobs which can be handed out by the
governor to those he faVors. for he
is given the power to appoint three
commissioners without any restrictions
as to what qualification they are to
have for the Office. The commissioners
are to serve six years and receive
salary OF $1,000. per year each. If
this bill had not been killed it would
have drawn 100000 per year out
of the state treasury for its maintain-
ance.
The hardest fight this session was
had in passing of the workmen's COM
pensation act. This bill is the largest
of the bills introduced. it contains 40
written pages, and something like 90
sections. The workmen's compensa-
tion now approved by two houses
failed to pass in two previous sessions.
The bill passed by vote Of 1O2 for
and 6 against the bill.
We have worked hard this session,
and are all glad that we are nearing
the end of the session. This session
will adjourn on the 23rd of April.
Yours truly.

One of the important bills passed
by Congress during the recent session
is known as the Mclean Weeks law,
which places migratory birds under
Federal protection. While the sever
al states have laws regulating and pro-
hibiting the killing of birds within
their own limits, they have not been
effective because each state has want
ed to secure its full share of edible
birds during the semi-annual migra-
tions.
The United States Department of
Agriculture asserts that it costs many
millions of dollars more annually to
feed our insects than to educate our
children. the estimated loss to farmers,
caused by insects. being approximately
$500. O00.O A scarlet tanager
has been seen to eat thirty five gypsy
moths minute for eighteen minutes
at time and yellow throated war;
bier will consume ten thousand plant
lice day.
The new law has the support of all
who know the conditions of agricul-
ture. and of bird lovers. who under
the leadership of the Audubon Society
will ask the new Congress for an
amendment to Schedule n of the tariff
law, that Will prohibit the importation
of the plumage of wild brids. The
United States imports more of that
plumage than any other country and
the desire of the bird lovers is to
have the duty placed so high as to
be prohibitive. or to have the inn
portation forbidden altogether. 1t is
said that unless something is done the
birds from which this plumage comes
will soon become extinct. American
milliners, with few exceptions, favor
the law. and it is believed that it's
passage will stimulate the manufac-
ture of fancy feathers from certain
domestic fowls. Alice McFeely, Uni

Clean Up Notice.

The time of the year is at hand
when the citizens of the town should
begin the work Of cleaning back yards
and alleys of all Objectionable debris
which has collected during the winter
months.
All rubbish should either be burned
or hauled away to the dumping ground.
A small expenditure in keeping back
yards and alleys in a presentable shape
will in the long run prove profitable,
not only in promoting healthful condi-
tions but in sending up the value of
property itself.
It is therefore desire that everyone
begin work at once.

duties on agricultural products was
political, and that the object was ac-
complished. The farmers were taken
into the protection partnership. and
whether or not they needed the pro-
lection, or were substantially benefited
by it. they could no longer complain
that they were left at the mercy of
the circumstances when the manufac-
turers were favored; and since they
recovered the share of the home mar.
ket they had lost, they did actually
become as sturdy partizans of the p-o-

It is now the purpose of the demo
Gratis, as indicated in the pending Lii,
to break up the partnership between
the farmers and the manufacturers,
and to reduce the duties on the pro.

favored reciprocity in the hope tha

\ 100000 HIGH SCHOOL.
Morris Is Now Lagging Far

The crowded condition of the

come so acute that a new building
must be provided, and to take care of
the present enrolment with far al
lowance for growth, building cost.
ing about $500, 900 will nave to be
erected.
State High School Inspector Geo.
B. Alton was here on Tuesday and
at the evening talked to the board
members and a number of citizens at
the high school building.
Mr. Alton, who was has been high
school inspector for many years. stated
that fifteen years ago he was wont to
hold Morris up as an example of a
city with a we'll equipped and modern
high school, but since then the high
school has outgrown its quarters.
Other towns have had similar ex-
periences, but have provided for new
buildings and now Morris has the most
backward school so far at building and
equipment is concerned of any high
school on this line of railway.
Fifteen years ago. the enrolment
was between 40 and so. but now it
is between lao and $50. Three
times as many pupils are now crowded
into the rooms which only comfort
ably accommodated one-third of the
number fifteen years ago.
The main assembly room will seat
only about half of the pupils enroll
ed today, and yet every available
foot of floor space has been used, and
the aisles have been narrowed to the
point of discomfort.
Mr.. Alton stated that the school
would fill an 18-room building in
FIVE years, and that he would recon-
mend the erection of a 24.room build.
ing, as otherwise, an addition would
have to be erected to the new build
ing in FIVE years. He explained that
what he meant by q "a room build
ing was one which contained in the
basement and the two other floors the
equivalent of "a times the size of an
ordinary school room. Thus he would
apporIion this space as follows -
Assembly room, 8 rooms.
Superintendent s Office, / room.
Laboratory. 2 rooms.
Recitation rooms, 8 rooms.
Domestic science, 2 rooms.
Commercial, 2 rooms.
Manual Training, 2 rooms.
Agriculture, 2 rooms.
Gymnasium. 3 rooms.
Closets, 2 rooms.
Heating and vent. rooms.
At the present time, Morris is
drawing state aid of about So, 1000,

vided, aad an additional agricultural
department added, the revenue from
this outside source could be increased

structors and interest on the $500, O0(
bonds.
The meeting was informal ant
there was considerable discussion, ant
all who were present appeared t.
realize the necessity for the new build
ing and no objection was offered.
motion was carried that the schoo
board be requested to call a specia
election for the purpose of voting
bonds for the new building. and tina
some time before the election, publ
meeting be held at which the situa
tion could be fully explained to tn

LAUD BRYAN AT DINNER
ON BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARY
Hailed as Foremost Exponent
of Ideal Democracy.

LINCOLN, Neb. March 20.-Will-

self lauded as the foremost exponent
of the ideals of Democracy, as the
man who more than any other made
the nomination and election of Wood
row Wilson possible, and as a leading
factor in bringing about what was
termed "a return of the government
of the people, In his reply Mr..
Bryan disclaimed credit for doing
more toward bringing about the
triumph of his party than should be
expected of one who had three times
been honored by receiving the nomi-
nation for the presidency.
Mr. Bryan in his speech did not
commit himself on any national pol
icy which is not well known to the
reading public. He discussed the
causes that have led to Democratic
victory, and in general promised that
President Wilson and all Democrats
would devote themselves the next
four years to bringing the govern
ment closer to the people. AS to
the praise bestowed upon him, he
said he was only one of six million
men who had aided in bringing about
the result.
The banquet last night was in honor
of the fifty third birthday anniVer-
sary of Mr.. Bryan. More than a
thousand men sat at table in the
Lincoln Auditorium.
