Yellow Fever Germ.

Tho theory that mosquitoes convey
the disease known as yellow fever"
is many years old. but 1t was not un.
til the year 1895 that 1t was proven
to be true. During that year Major
Ronald Ross. working In India along
tho lines of Sir Patrick Manson's the.
ory. demonstrated that mosquitoes Of
the genus called anopheles clarifer
conveyed the disease. In 1898 ex.
periments In Cuba and other parts Of
the world established a similar con.
clusion. It Is in consequence Of this
discovery that the dread disease 10

REPORT SHOWS
NOTHING WRONG
Investigation Of the Charges
Against State Treasurer
Has This Result.
PLACE OF RESIDENCE
IS ONLY CRITICISM
Spends Much Time at Capt.
tai and Supervises All
Work, However.
(By H, n. raul.on.,

Bismarck. N. H., March 3.-The
complete report of the committee
which made an investigation into
Charges that were laid against state
treasurer Gunder Olson in resolutions
adopted by the house fails to show
anything radically wrong with the
conduct of that department of state
government. The only criticism di-
rected at Mr.. Olson is based on the
fact that he does not make his home.
in Bismarck. although he spends much
work in the Office.
Following is the committees report
III full:
To the House of Representatives of
the Thirteenth Legislative Assembly
OF the State of North Dakota:
Your committee appointed to in.
vestigate the office of state treasurer
cd by the house and found wv the
house journal of the thirty fifth dav
on page IL. beg leave to submit the
following report:
Your committee has inquired into
the charge that the state treasurer.
Gunder Olson, does not reside in Bis
!narck and also examined records as
to any Irregularities which might en-.
list.
Regarding the question of residence,
We find from IL statement made to us
by Mr.. Olson hat he spends consid.
cradle time III Bismarck, that he at
tends practically all the meetings Of
the various boards of which he is eX.
ofticio a member and that he attends
to the work of the office in a general
supervisory way.
His family. however. does not re-
side in Bismarck owing to family rea-
sens n the sickness of his mother.
We are of the opinion that he does
not reside in Bismarck t o the letter
and intent of the law as set forth in
section 4. chapter ZIG. session laws
Of 1909.
This law provides for an increase
in salary for certain state officials. In
the case Of state treasurer the salary
is increased from $1,000 to $4,000 d
year and the law specifically states
that he shall reside at the capital II
the state.

IN THE OTHER HAND

" American voters have for years
been surfeited by tales Of the low
wages Of their competitors. this being
the basis of the chief argument for a
high protective tariff But on the other
hand there is the undOubted fact that
the wages of the civilized countries
are steadily becoming equalized. and if
The Italians. for instance. do not re
ceiNe equal pay to Americans, it j
largely due to the fact that their nation
has a tremendously heavy army eX-
pense, and the taxes must be added
to the wages to determine the relative
cost Of producing commodities.
Then, too, if there is discrepancy in
wages between two countries. this VII
largely be corrected by giving both
access TO the markets, and that without
detriment to the country having ,hc
higher scale of wages
But the most hopeful sign Of the
times is the great effort being put forth
by all nations to educate their farmers
IN scientific agriculture In the last
two years this valley has been visited
