Minnesota takes much interest in

| believe, the only state in tho Union ex-
tending aid to it, prisoners. 1t was
the first state to establish . hospital
for crippled children. There are, to-
day, more than 1900 dependents in the
public school at 0watonna. In the in
situations for the deaf. the blind and

was. during last year, an attendance
of nearly 1900 ana in the five state
hospitals and asylums for the insane
there was q population Of more than
$500. With the increase In tho num-

come an increase In tho number Of lts
unfortunates and therefore. IL tho pres
ent standard is to be maintained, new
buildings for the inmates will from
time to time be needed and larger ap-
become necessary unless the members
Of this body can agree upon some plan
whereby those, who are relatives of
the inmates and are able to contribute
10 their support, can be made to do 80
through legislative enactment. You
