ed the home of August Smuda Of the
West side.
The house was occupied by two
families, those Of August Smuda and

were the only occupants of the house
at the time Of the fire, Mr.. and Mrs.
Smuda being at St. Cloud and Mr..
Skiba being in the northern part of
the state, where he is employed. 1t
is thought that the fire was caused by
a defective chimney, as Mrs. Skiba had
started a fire in the stove, to heat some
food and retired. Upon returning for
the food she discovered smoke issuing
from the chimney and Immediately
took the children from the premises,
and returned to save some Of the house

600 feet of hose to reach the fire.
The house was insured for 5000, fur
niture $500. The Skiba furniture was
insured for 5000.
Fire brands fell on the Lincoln

WHEELOCK WONDERS IF
THERE IS TIME TO EAT
Berth on Busy Board of Control Would
Prove Acidulous Plum
for Less Active Man

Before Ralph W. Wheelock took MS
seat on the State Board of Control he
inquired just what were the duties Of
a board member and the work expect
ed of him. He is now wondering how
the members get time to eat. Some
men would call membership on the
board not a political plum, but a
lemon.
The board has financial and general
supervision of the five insane hospi-
tails, the state prison, reformatory,
school for girls, school for the feeble
minded, state sanatorium, hospital for
crippled children, and the Willmar
flag farm.' In addition it has fnan-
cial supervision Of the schools for the
blind and deaf at Faribault and the
state public school at Owatonna.
This would seem to be enough for
any three men but it is only starter.
The board also acts as board of
parole and pardon for the state train
ing school; has charge Of the inspec-
ton of jails and hospitals throughout
the state, and looks after the deporta-
ton Of insane and criminals. More
over, it inspects all state institutions
under it's control once a month.
Here are some other things it does:
Buys fuel for state institutions; in
sures all buildings and boilers; lets
contracts for public buildings; plans
the buildings; supervises paroled in
sane; determines residence of paupers;
buys supplies for all institutions under
its charges; licenses children's and
orphans homes; supervises expendi-
lures of the State Conference of Chari-
ties and Corrections; purchases land
for state institutions.
The institutions under the board g
charge are engaged in a variety Of in
dustries. Among other things they op
crate a stone quarry and manufacture
granite, crush stone for highway pur-
poses, make clothing for state institu-
tions, Irvine for the farmers and also
farm machinery.
Outside Of these things the board
has little to do.

CONG. c. A. LINOBfRG'
ALTHOUGH IN PROGRESSIVE eau
GUS, DECLARES HIMSELF INDIE.
PENDENT

Washington, April 5.-Representa-
tive Charles A. Lindbergh Of the sixth
Minnesota district, declared today
that his participation in the progress
i've caucus yesterday did not make
him a member Of that party.
81 am an independent said Mr..
:.;rdbergh, "and I told my progress
I've friends that l would hold myself
All Independent before I participated
in their conference. I have joined
nth them and have accepted a place
GU their committee on a legislative
program because I believe that they
are the people who will advocate Tue
KIND Of legislation that I desire to
SOC enacted. And even as it is, an
not bound to indorse everything that
the progressiyes do in conference Or
rule. l have seen the glaring evils Of
caucus rule in the republican party
during my service in the house, and
will not be bound by the will Of any
set of men, '.-=- =,
TO Run as Independent
Mr.. Lindbergh was asked as to his
course of action if he should decide to
run for congress again next year, in
view Of the fact that he is acting
with the progressives, and is going
to vote for Murdoch for speaker.
81 shall run as an independent, -
declared the congressman. = ~ fled as
a republican last year, but at the
same time I declared my independ-
ence. l sent $4,000 letters to my con-
constituents in the last congress, tell
ing them that 1 was an Independent
and would act Independently if elect
ed.'
Minnesotans in Washington ~, are
greatly interested in this matter, and
have been specializing whether it
would be possible for Mr.. Lindbergh
to run again as republican,2in view
Of the fact that. before his filing for
the congressional nomination can be
accepted, he must make affidavit that
ne is member of the party. They
say that his declaration that he will
run as an independent next year
clears things up and leaves him free
to make the race for congress again
without being hindered by party
shackles,, even though they are ncs
very strong. During his entire serv-
ice in congress Mr.. Lindbergh has
been opposed to the republican organi-
zation, although he has been listed
with the republicans, along with 9TH
er men in that party who had decided
progressive leanings.
Offered Committee Place
Minority Leader Mann, it is under
stood, was prepared to recognize the
sixth district congressman as repub-
lican, and, according to Mr.. Lindberzh
himself, offered him a place on the
committee on banking and currency,
to which he has aspired for some
time.
"That offer makes no difference to
me- said Lindbergh, "I am an indie
pendent and shall act as an independ-
ent, no matter where may be placed. -
There is a question now, however,
whether MI. Mann will give Mr.. Lind
bergh place among the republicans
on any of the committees. He may
let the democrats assign the Mime.
sotan to committee places as pro-
gressive, along with the other mem
bers who participated in yesterdays
conferonca
