Department As Peaceful
Merchantmen
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch. ]

Washington, July 11.-State de-
partment officials today expressed
the belief, based upon information,
that the Deutchland would be de-
clared a peaceful, unarmed merchant
man and entitled to all the privileges
of the ordinary cargo carrier. The
state>> department, it is officially de-
clared, will not concern itself with
the reported objections of the Cana
dian nickel interests to the exporta-
tion of nickel on the Deutchland.
! The agreements of the American
purchasers of Canadian nickel not to
re-export the metal, Acting Secretary
,, Polk explained, purely private, and
no resort could be had to the state
department to interfere with the
nickel shipments on the German
supersubmarine.

today. The vessel was looked over

ested the Americans more than any

County Board Fixes Upon the
Budget of $150,000
PUTS BAN ON SEEMING
Number of Matters Attended to
Today BY Blue Earth
Commissioners
From Tuesdays Daily.


Acting on suggestion made by
Carlos Avery, state game commission
er, the county board today passed a
resolution prohibiting seining in any
of the lakes of the county for one
year
This resolution, introduced by Com
missioner Compton, reads as follows:
Whereas a number of lakes of this
county containing rough fish have been
recently seined and in some cases it
appeared to result in damage to game
fish in these lakes, therefore, be it re-
solved that pursuant to Chapter 261
of the General Laws of 1915, we pro-
hibit seining in this county for the en-
suing year."
The board adopted the tax levy for
the coming year. The total levy will
be $150,0O0, against $125,00O year
ago. The increase will necessitate the
levy of about IL mills over the mills
levied by the county board last year.
The board adopted the estimate OF
County Auditor Kennedy, except that
the road and bridge fund was raised
from $45,OOO to $4,000. This raised
the total for 1917 from $147,O00 to
$150,0O0.

Two GIRLS BACK
School Board Will Reinstate
Irene Seery and Esther Paxton.
Suspension of Jessie Burnett
May Include Spring Term.

In executive session last night the
city school board voted to reinstate
Irene Seery and Esther Paxton, two
of the suspended girls who lost their
case in the district court Monday. The
members of the board held that they
were less to blame for the trouble than
the other girls. They will be allowed
credit for the terms work, providing
that by private tuiOrage they can
make up enough work to pass exami-
nations later in the month.
AS for Jessie Burnett, the board de-
clined to take any further action. Her
suspension may be extended until the
end of the spring term. However. she
might be allowed to return to school
provided she gets together in a har-
mony stunt with the superintendent.
This is considered unlikely because

some harsh things about H. b Will
son at an earlier school board meet

Trouble Not observation-disclosures.
THE action of the school board last
night in practically reinstating Miss
Esther Paxton and Miss Irene Seery.
is an admission that the high school
girls were right in their contention
that the board had acted arbitrarily"
said E. D. McKeever, the girls attor-
ney today. 1T was like the case of
ing and relieving his conscience by
committing suicide. 1t is stated that
this action was taken upon the rec
ommendatiOn of the superintendent
and principal and in light of all the
evidence pertaining thereto
When did this evidence come to
light? The board, the superintendent
and principal denied that there was
any such evidence last week, and al
though we contended that the evidence
was just what the board decided it
was last night, the honorable court
believed the superintendent and prin-
cipal and decided accordingly.
1t iS rather rough on the judges
who decided this case for this body
to discredit their decision by conclud-
ing in effect, that the evidence was
different from what it was understood
to be by the court. If the evidence
/ last night justified this action in be-
half of Misses Seery and Paxton it
justified it at the time the original
! order was made, and if at the time the
order was made it was not justified
! by the evidence the board acted arbi-
/ trarily as we have commended.
IF the board and professors had
| been honest enough to make this adj
mission before the case closed the de-
cision of the judges might have been
different The grudge still openly
( borne by Wilson against Miss Jessie
/ Burnett, indicates as 1 have frequent
~ stated, that this whole crowd of
girls had to suffer because of a per-
sonal grievance of the professor
against her in which she was perfect
~ innocent.
1T is my personal opinion that this
trouble is no nearer settled than it
was before, because as long as the
/ board upholds the professors in I'M
just, arbitrary and vindictive actions
and themselves act upon insufficient
and biased evidence, the trouble will

BACHELORS, LOOK OUT!
May Be You Had Not Remembered
That This Is Leap Year.

Leap year slipped in without any
attention being paid to it
Leap year is due to the fact that
every year it's really 364A days long.
The one-fourth day is rather awkward
to add on to every year and conse-
quently is saved up until it makes a
day. The custom of hanging the extra
day on the month of February arose
from the habit of the Romans in their
reckoning of the sixth day before the
Kalends of March February 24)
twice it later being added to the end
of the month.
What makes leap year famous, how
ever, is the superstition or belief, as
you will, that it is the year permitting
the feminine proposal. There is no
case on record of a girls proposal be-
ing admitted, although many accusa-
lions have been made

NOT A CENT FOR LULL
Commissioner Porter Has $1,000 Left
in His Public Health Fund.

When the new year came in w. L.
Porter, commissioner of public health,
had available $1,000 more for his
health department than he had last
year. He has never made it just clear
how he intends to spend the money
but he intimated today that it would
not be through the employment of a
physician to handle emergency and
INDECENT cases.
IF 1 have my way about it, he
said, no one physician will look after
the sick who are too poor to pay for
the services of a physician. l want a
fund to handle such cases but l don't
want physician especially for such
matters. Some way will be provided
whereby poor people who really are
sick can get medical treatment by
calling any reliable physician and this
department will pay the bill. I am
not ready to announce the details OF
the plan"
Asked if any of the money would be
used to take care of emergency cases
at the police station, Porter replied
certainly not. I'm not running the
police department. If they want me
to run it, the mayor'll have to resign
first"
