MILLION SENT TO TEACHERS.
Governor SlatOn Had Checks Mailed
Out Saturday. Pensions Next.

Out Saturday. PENSIONS Next.
Checks were sent out Saturday
from the state treasury department
disbursing $1,2OO,OOO to teachers of
the state, due in 1913. This repre-
sents all due on last year except
about 100000, and this cannot be
paid until certain counties send in
their reports on which payment of
school funds is predicated.
There has been some question as
to whether the governor would pay
teachers or pensioners first, but he
held that the teachers held a past
due obligation on 1918, while the
pensioners pay is not yet due. 1t is
hoped to have sufficient funds in the
treasury by the last of February to
pay the pensioners, the appropriation
for this purpose being $1,070,OOO
for this year.

DON'T LET CONSTIPATION
RUIN YOUR HEALTH
IL Deadens the Brain and Weakens
the Body. Nature Needs Real and
Harmless Aid to Overcome 1t.

Nature does her best to fight con-
situation and it's evil effects. She
fights to the last atom of her
strength, but usually she has to have
assistance.
To avoid the sluggist brain and
weakened body, the sick headache,
coated tongue and biliousness. it is
unwise to use unpleasant calomel,
medicine so strong that it leaves
most peop'e 'all knocked out. Don't
take chances with your health.
A great number Of people nave
learned that DodsOn's Liver Tone
(50c.) makes one brighter, healthier
and happier in a perfectly easy and
natural way, with no pain or grippe
and no bad after effects.

an absolutely safe, pleasant tasting
vegetable liquid and a wonderful l1V-
err stimulant which takes the place
of calomel, but be sure you get Dod-

CRITICISE CENTRAL RAILWAY
Interstate Commerce Commission Re-
ports After Investigation of the
Wreck Near Clayton.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Responsi-
bility for the Central of Georgia rail
way wreck near Clayton, Ala, last
November, which resulted in the
death of nine passengers and the in
jury of $50 persons, was placed on
bad track conditions and speed in
consistent with safety" by a report
made to the interstate commerce
commission today by H. w. Belnap,
chief inspector of safety appliances.
The track in the vicinity Of the
accident" says he, was in deplor-
able condition. With the kind of
track existing in the vicinity Of this
derailment it is doubtful If trains
could be run with safety even at the
comparatively low speed allowed by
the schedule. The maximum speed
permitted, as shown by the minimum
time between stations, certainly is
not safe" He said that there is
nothing to prevent an engineman
from running sixty or more miles
an hour over portions of the road,
provided only that he does not eX-
coed the minimum allowed between
stations.
During the sixteen days before
the accident" Mr.. Belnap says, the
section foreman had found IA broken
rails, 3 of which he had patched
and left in the track" He adds that
it was evident these rails had out
lived their usefulness" He blames
the road for its method of repairing
rail breaks, declaring that these
numerous breaks indicate that mate
rial is not furnished for making re-
pairs in a proper manner. When
rails of this character are used on
rotten ties without ballast and with
an inadequate force of men to patrol
the track and perform necessary
work, accidents of this character may
be expected to occur.

of his injuries. Ever since the fall,
which happened at the residence of
the senator's cousin, Mayor Henry
A. Tarver, of Albany, Mr.. Bacon has
been up and about. Though he has
complained of a pain or ache in his
left side at occasional intervals he
did not suspect that his rib was bro
ken until yesterday when he visited
physician in Washington. The
physician located the fracture in

break was bandaged.

to the open where the tired brain is

the enjoyment of invigorating outdoor
life are of Unreasonable value to the
state in the matter Of public health.
The latest government report an

can exist that potent influence re-

PENNINGTON "DRYs" WIN OUT
Temperance Men Win Contest and
Three Saloons Close as a
Result.

Farmington.-The Pennington cleo
ton contest involving the granting of
liquor licenses has been decided in
favor of the "drys" by Judge John
son. On March 10 the village voted
upon the license question, and the
election board found that 154 voters
voted against license and 152 for IL
cense. On one ballot all the printed
words had been scratched out and
two ballots were folded together, both
being for license, thus making the to-
tai number of ballots in the box 300.
The election board could not agree
upon the disposition of the ballots
and therefore reported the matter un-
decided, and the village council al
lowed the saloons to run. Thereupon
the "drys" instituted an election con-
test. Judge Johnson decided that
the two ballots which had been fold
ed together had been voted by the
same person and that neither could
be counted, and also held that the
scratched ballot could not be counted,
and that the "wets" had failed to re-
ceive a majority of the lawful votes
cast at the election, and that conse-
quently the town was dry" The
three saloons of the town have been
closed.

Conservation Necessity.
Minnesota early learned the neces-
sity for the conservation of this price,
less boon and the intelligent legisla-
ton and wise administration Of a sys-
tenn Of game laws in years gone by
has restrained the slaughter that has
depleted in many sections Of the coun-
try, most valuable asset. Is not
the passing of the buffalo familiar
story to us all? Are we going to al
low shortsighted legislation to deprive
US Of the means to carry on the fun
damental work of wild game and fish
conservation? The license fees are
paid by the sportsmen with the idea
and the general supposition that the
funds thus derived are utilized for the
protection and propagation Of game
and fish and presaging for many years
to come the fine fishing and hunting
grounds that are now SO numerous and
valuable This is not true of Mime
sofa at the present time as an act Of
the legislature deprived the state de-
partment of these revenues and has
resulted in seriously Gripping the
cause of conservation by a measure
and insufficient appropriation in its
stead.
1t is fortunate that the state has
capable and efficient business men at
the head of the state department who
are enthusiastic sportsmen them
selves and in full sympathy with the
spirit of game and fish conservation,
and who have given their untiring
and unselfish efforts to furnishing of
every means to secure the increase
and perpetuation Of the wild life Of
our state. These men have served
without pay and their enthusiasm, in
cooperation with the fine spirit Of the
many gun clubs in the state, Is Gre
ating a tremendous public sentiment
that will soon make the game hog"
and the poacher as extinct as the dodo.
Game Laws Improving.
1t is true that our game laws leave
much to be desired, but these are
gradually being improved, as expert
ence teaches wisdom and new condi-
tons arise. But the enforcement of
the laws we have is a prime neces-
sity and it Is of the utmost impor-
lance that individuals and organiza-
lions exert themselves to insure their
more effective enforcement by prevent
ing any unwise act of legislation that
may tend to curtail the efficiency of
the state department and unite in

Ell. RAAB OUT FOR GOVERNOR
Entrance of Another Into Republican
Field May Complicate Situa-
ton Somewhat.

Duluth.-Second choice votes ma
decide who is to be the Republican
nominee for Governor because of the
unexpected filing of Elwood L. Raab
of this city, for that position. With
but two candidates Eber-
hart and William E. Lee-in the field
there would be no second choice
space provided on the primary ba,
lot, but with three in the race, this
is made necessary, and if the contes,
is close this vote may determine the
result.
Mr. Raab was born at Stewartville,
Olmstead county, in 1860 and moved
to Duluth in 1874. He has been a
surveyor and mining engineer, he
says for thirty years and was one of
the first to discover iron ore in the
range country. He was associated
with the Merritts at one time, he as
serts, and aided them in locating val
liable mineral deposits.
