Put Work Where it Belongs.
AS new departments have been ad-
ded and old ones rearranged, many
unnecessary burdens of detail work
have been placed on the governors
office, causing confusion and accom-
plishing no good purpose. AS an illus
tration Of this condition, during the
past two years the governor has put
in Approximately twenty days time
in signing military vouchers alone
and papers of one kind and another
in connection Herewith requiring his
approval. when it was physical i'm
possibility to devote sufficient time
to inquire into the expenditures in
volved. Auditing should be done in
the auditors office, and our whole
system should be simplified by divid-
ing up the detail work among the
offices to which It belongs. Very little
il any good can come from requiring
the governors signature to SO many
unimportant papers concerning which
he can not possibly taae the time

Blue Sky Law

The Nineteenth general assembly
passed during the last hours of the
session what is known as "Blue Sky
Law In the haste attending the close
of the session it was overlooked that
this bill contained provisions in con-
flict with other important measures,
such as the Utilities bill and the In
surance code enacted by the same as
semhly. 1t was therefore necessary
to veto the BILL ! simply hope that
effective legislation covering this sub
ject will be enacted not only to safe
guard the public interests in the or
ganization Of corporations but to make
our securities sold abroad safe and
attraction. An amendment to this
effect might be added to our present
utilities law.

Fixing Date of Adjournment.

When the people voted the con-
stitutional amendment removing the
ninety day limit to sessions of the
general assembly, they undoubtedly in.
tended that the work of the legis.
lature should be completed, however
long it might take, before the houl
of final adjournment should be fix
ed. The old system resulted in de.
laying work until toward the close ot
the session when, in the rush which
necessarily followed many meritor.
ious measures were lost or passed il
such form as to make them worse
than useless.
The new provision intends the tn,
general assembly shall push its worl
from the beginning and take al
necessary time to complete it in the
best form. In the interest of goot
Legislation and to the benefit of the
Legislators themselves, hope that al
important matters shall be disposed
of before the hour of the fina
adjournment is fixed.

ing every one concerned will use
his best endeavor to prevent the allot

the first and second classes are sure
of their money. The other classes are
on the doubtful line, and often it is no,
known for months of perhaps veal
after the bills become effective
whether the appropriation will be
available or not. In consequence there
cannot be that planning or continuity
of work necessary to prodpce the best
results.

ZEPPELIN CREW RESCUED.
Fourteen Members of German Dirigi- bIe's Crew to Be Intcrncd By Dutch.

London, Feb. 1S.-FOurteen mem bers of the crew of the Zeppelin diri- gible which was destroyed by an eX- plosion yesterday on Tance Island, were rescued and will be interned by the Danish authorities, says a de- spatch from Copenhagen to Reuters Telegram company. The Zeppelin was cruising over the island with an other dirigible when it caught. fire and was compelled to descend, land ing before the explosion took place.
 The destroyed Zeppelin was L-3, one of the largest in commission. She was completed in 1914 and was $50 feet long, had a diameter of 61 feet and displaced 32 tons. She was supplied with four motors with a total horse power of 720, and had a speed of 40 knots. Commander Prinz says the situation when the fire broke out was most critical, there being dangersthat the bombs on board the airship would explode before she could be brought to the ground.

products are Of the best, as also are
our beef. pork, poultry, eggs, milk,
cream and butter and other products
all of the very first quality. Until
the world gets tired Of good whole
some victuals Minnesota products will
continue to be in prime demand.
Down east, down south and way out
west they can and do produce some
things in perfection. but here we raise
9 great many IN equal perfection. For
instance, we enjoy Delaware peaches,
but we like them better with our Min
