STATE EMPLOYS

INCREASE OF 60 PER CENT IN
THE PAST TEN YEARS is
THE RECORD SET
SURPRISES in blue BOOK
BIENNIAL PUBLICATION CON-
TAINS INFORMATION ON
SUBJECT OF JOBS.

st. Paul, July 5.-Ever read the
''blue book"-a publication issued
biennially by the secretary of state ?
"A silly question to ask, I know, for
even if $4,000 of the dear peoples
money is spent in its publication it
is a safe bet that of the 100000 or
more persons in. Minnesota only a
fraction know that the state INDUCES
in such luxury, much less have read
it. Well, there is such a publication,
and if you took the trouble to get a
copy you would find this astounding
information. In ten years the humber
of department employees of the state
government has increased more than
60 per cent" This is not the exact
language used, in fact the state blue
is evidently not intended to convey
such information, but it is there just
the same and the increasing burden
the taxpayers in the shape of SALARY
grabbers" grows as one peruses it's
pages and makes comparison with
previous biennial issues. Just ten
years ago the seat of government was
shifted to the magnificent marble pile
on Capitol Hill. The hundred or more
persons who vacated the stuffy inter-
Tor of the old brick building further
down the street for the handsome Of
fees and halls of the new, marveled
at its vastness and the city press used
up columns in praising its builders
and describing it's beauties and it's en-
during utilities. Silence reigned in
the offices and corridors of the old
capitol and there was much discus
sion as to it's disposition. Sell it was
the popular cry. The other day Gus
todian Corliss took a census of the
state capitol and this is what he found
A total of 375 persons employed in
the new structure, offices crowded,
vault space inadequate and depart
ment heads clamoring for more room;
in the old capitol every office taken
and the tenants complaining about
crowded conditions. Nor was this all.
In an office building down town he
found almost an entire floor occupied
by the state highway commission and
in another building in Minneapolis,
two floors are occupied by employees
of the state railway and warehouse
commission. He did not carry his in
vestigations any farther. He was
astounded, too.
= As things run nowadays ten years
is a brief period in the history of a
state. Governments progress so fast
that the thing of yesterday is today
but a memory, and government ma
chinery that week ago was regarded
as the last word is scrapped without
the bat of an eye. All this, to-
gether with the natural increase in
state development, in a measure ex-
plains some of the heavy additions to
the state departments and the crea-
ton of some new ones, but it hardly
explains what the latest blue book
describes as an army of employees.

MAKING FINE RECORD

The Sank Lake COOPERATIVE
Creamery is making a splendid show
ing under the management of Butter
maker l.. M. Jacobs. In the last state
scoring contest Mr.. Jacobs secured
mark of 94A points, the highest the
creamery has any record of for long
time at least. For May the patrons of
the creamery were paid % and 80 cts,
per pound for their butter-fat. The
product from the local creamery is
selling for higher price on the New
York market each week at present
than heretofore. With this showing
it would seem that the farmers in the
territory tributary to Sank Centre
would give the creamery their undi-
vided support. The larger the output
the smaller the proportionate manu-
featuring cost, which would mean still
larger returns to the patrons.

reached. This forms the bulge.
Always keep the middle high and
firmly tramped. Do not tramp the
outer layer at all. If possible, have
loads pitched from different sides of
the stack to obtain more even tramp
ing. From the bulge the stack should
taper slowly to point. This is done
by laying the bundles now with the
short side of the slanting but upper
most, gradually decreasing the diam
eter.
Keep the middle high and well
tramped-so high that the beginner
will fear that the outer layer will fall
off. Sometimes they will, but that is
better than having the rain water
soak in.
At the peak, which should be 20 to

Tire $1,000 BOND
CITY DADS HOLD LIVELY SES-
SION AT CLERKS OFFICE
WEDNESDAY EVENING
HITCHING POSTS A PROBLEM
BIDS ACCEPTED FOR CEMENT
WORK AND NEW BARN AT
THE FAIR GROUNDS

The City Council held very inter-
esting meeting Wednesday evening
with all members present save Aid.
Jameson, who was out of the city.
Mrs. Matte Pangburn made a
statement relative to the Rest Room
before the council settled down for
the evenings work.
The council was greeted by about
20 of the business men from the vi
cinity of Main and Fourth streets who
were there for the purpose of urging
the installation of sufficient hitching
posts to care for the farmers teams.
The Mayor and the Council went on
record in favor of the posts but there
appeared to be little diversity of
opinion as to where they should be To-
Gated. A committee consisting of AL
derman Jenkins, Hillerud and Brown
were appointed to investigate the
matter and report to later meeting
of the Council.
Mayor McGibbon appointed the fol-
lOWIlS do ulCA1OClo VI Vic HAO1oAy
Board for the three year term: James
A. Norris, F. w. Sprague and M. d.
Aygarn.
The report of the Rest Room Com
mittee stated that Mrs. Matte Pang-
burn had resigned as matron of the
room to take effect July 9Th, and that
Mrs. Martha Bean had been appointed
to succeed her.
The Ladies Civic Committee report
ed that the fly traps had all been
placed and that IL quarts of flies had
been caught by the boys up to the
present time.
The bids for material for the new
stock barn to be constructed at the
Fair grounds were opened and were
as follows:
Independent Lumber & Coal Co.,
Co., for lumber only. .$248.40
j. Borgerding & Co., for lumber
only ............... 10000
The Independent Lumber & Coal
Company offered to furnish a three
ply roofing for $1.25 per square and
the Borgerding Co., for $3.50. The
bid of the Independent Compeny be-
ing the lowest, it was accepted. 1t is
expected the barn complete will cost
about $3.50. In size and plan it will
be an exact duplicate of the barn
erected two years ago.
Charles Parks, Anton Nelson, Tel
schow Brothers and ]. Kinsella sub
mitted bids to do certain cement work
on the streets, according to specifca-
tons. The bid of J. Kinsella being the
lowest, was accepted.
The Council voted to retire $1,000
bond held by the First National Bank,
which will reduce the city's bonded in
debtedness to $4,000.
! President O'Gara announced the ap-
pointment of the following standing
committees for the ensuing year:

KAISER Is Still
EVADING issue
DRAFT OF GERMANY'S REPLY
TO PRESIDENT WILSON'S
NOTE GIVEN OUT
PROBABLY MEANS MORE DELAY
WASHINGTON SEES SACRIFICE
OF NATIONS NEUTRALITY
IN ACCEPTING OFFER.

Washington, July Germany has
submitted Informally to the United
States through Ambassador Gerard in
Berlin, tentative draft of its reply to
the note of June which asked for as
surances that American rights on the
high seas would not be further violat-
ed by German submarine commanders.
After careful examination of the
contents of the proposed note, as out
lined by Ambassador Gerard, which
comedies with Berlin press dispatches
of the last few days, high officials are
practically agreed that the United
States cannot, without sacrificing i'm
portant neutral rights, express its ap-
prevail of the German proposals in
their present form,
The draft was shown to Ambassa-
dor Gerard with the idea of eliciting
from him an expression of opinion,
and he promptly asked for instruc-
lions from Washington as to whether
the United States could make conces-
sions. President Wilson has been adj
vised of the situation in several long
messages sent to his summer resi-
dence at Cornish, N. H., and the i'm
preston obtained last night from re-
liable quarters was that the. American
government probably would instruct
it's ambassador within a day or two
to decline to express any view until
the formal reply is delivered to him.
Just what Germany proposed has
not been officially divulged.
Secretary Lansing yesterday took
the position that it would not be pro-
per for him to disclose Germany's
position as informally reported by Mr..
Gerard without authorization from
from the Berlin government. He stat
ed merely that there had been no ex-
change of views or informal negoti-
ations between Germany and the
United States and declined to predict
whether there would be.
From Berlin dispatches and authori-
tative sources here it is learned, how
ever, that the note as drafted by the
German foreign office with Emperor
Williams subsequent approval, would
give assurances that Americans might
travel with safety on high seas on
certain conditions imposed by Ger
many, such as marking of belligerent
vessels carrying Americans, notifca-
ton by the United States to Germany
of the date of the departure and char
acter of such vessels, and an inspec-
ton insuring their noncarriage of
munitions of war.
President Wilson has before him
the views of several cabinet officers,
some of whom. believe that it is es-
sential to have Ambassador Gerard
make clear to the German foreign Of
fee that the United States can make
no concessions from its position as
based on the accepted rules of inter-
national laws and the naval prize
codes. of civilized nations.
Whether the President does or does
not finally decide to have Ambassador
Gerard tell the German government
Informally the views of the United
States on the rough draft submitted,
it was clearly apparent yesterday that
