provide for the adjustment of the
fire marshaPs, the oil inspection and
the hotel inspectors departments and
regiment of janitors and petty Off
GERS in charge of the state board OF
control. 1t also provides a budget
system for all appropriations and the
merging of state inspectors of all
kinds under one head. The latter
was killed, but later resurrected at
the request of Representative Gordon
and returned to the calendar. The
feature of the whole thing was the
heavy majority given all the Gordon

for an official budget, will ever get by
the senate is doubtful.

County division, so much desired
by residents of the Iron Range out
side of the city of Duluth and by the
southern half of Otter Tail county,
met its Waterloo when the house, by
an overwhelming vote, turned down
the bills providing for it. While coun-
ty division is dead, however, it's
memory is by no means stale and as
a result much trouble faces those who
started the movement-the represent
tatives from the Range towns. The
trouble is a bill offered by Represen-
tative Harrison of Hennepin county,
which in effect limits tax levies for
municipal purposes to $25 per capita
On the Range the levy varies from S.
to 500 per capita and as a result
there is said to be wild line of
spending by the city and town Off
Gals for civic improvements. Moth
4ng is too costly for them to purchase
or erect. Their schools are magnifi-
cent structures and their other public
buildings are the equal of those of
any city of 100000 or more population
in the United States. All have a
way of light" and there is costly
paving without limit. The burden of
all this falls on the mine owners prin-
cipally and the airing given the whole
thing looks very much as if the limit
on expenditures as proposed would
prevail. The bill is before both
houses and each has approved it
through their committee on towns and
counties.
There is little possibility of any
further liquor legislation of impor-
lance this year. The house tied a
large can to the Larimore-Dawis reso-
luton proposing statewide prohibit
ton through a constitutional amend
nent and its defeat is accepted as
ending for the next two years any
further attempts at drying up Min
nesota. The senate committee on
temperance at the same time report
ed out a similar bill for indefinite
postponement. Senator Gandrud, it's
author, protested, but he is more than
likely to meet defeat. Both houses
seem tired of the whole temperance
question and feel that they have
done their full duty in this line in the
passage of the county option bill.

the answer may be that the man may
