world war; 1t will be remembered
rhat ut the last session Of the Minne-
sofa legislature a state bonus law was
formed authorizing the sale OF state
bonds to the amount Of paying each re-
turned soldier an addition $15 for each
month Of war service Difficulties in
the sale Of these bonds have, however.
considerably delayed the payment OF
the bonuses, but 4 few weeks ago new
proposition was laid before the various
state banks whereby the latter were
permitted to pay these bonus claims by
purchasing the state bonds. Mr.. Holm
applied for this right away with the
result that our boys have now received
their full remuneration. .- .-'-.
