Bill Raises Bounty on Wolves.

Bill Raises Bounty on Wolves.
Monday evening proved
veritable field day of oratory in
the house chamber. A bill rails
ing the bounty on grown wolves
from 81 to SIS. and on cubs from
So to 81, was up for considera-
ton, and a dozen or more repre-
sentatives from Northern Mime
sofa didn't do a thing to the: ene-
mics of the innocent hen, the
gentle deer, the meek sheep and
insisted that the way to deal
with the problem is to raise the
bounty. AS most of the counties
add a bounty to that provided by
the state. it will become a
mighty profitable business for
sharp shooters to hunt wolves in
the Northern woods hereafter.
The bill passed the house by a
big majority and will probably
fare equally well in the senate.
Would Abolish All Boards.
Senator Boyle in the senate
and Representatives Nimocks
and Moen in the house have in
PRODUCED resolutions calling for
Investigations to ascertain
whether it would not be feasible
to abolish most Of the state
boards, bureaus and commissions,
and substitute for each, one Off
cial. This would reduce the
expense to the state by from
fifty to seventy-fve per cent,
and some Legislators believe that
greater efficiency would also re-
suit. The Nimocks-Moen resolu-
ton has already been adopted in
the house and Speaker Nolan
named an excellent committee to
take charge Of the work, with
Rep. Theodore Christensen of
Dawson at the head. He has
been chairman of the appropria-
tons committee of the house for
several terms and is one of the
best posted men in the state on
matters relating to the states
finance and administration.

Doings of the
Legislature
DEBATE IS STILL GOING
ON RURAL CREDITS
House is Mt Sea Over Rural
Credits Bills With no
Action.
BY Martin w. Odland.
Especial Correspondent

st. Paul, Minn.-And still the
committee on markets and mar
keting of the Minnesota house of
representatives is in a stew over
the rural credits question. Feel
ing among some of the rasr1bers
is getting rather intense, and it
will not be at all surprising if
there is an eruption in the near
future.
Reps. N. T. Moen and O. X.
DAZZLE, authors of rural credits
bills providing for only one new
salaried state official to admin
ister the proposed law, put one
over on the proponents of the
Wilkinson bill, Thursday morn
ing, when they announced that
they had adjusted their differ
ences and submitted a new
measure which they asked the
committee to approve and report
to the house as a committee bill.
Rep. w. l. Norton of Minnea-
polls, chief sponsor for the Will
kinson bill and leading tactician
Of the IL authors of that
measure. asked that the new
measure be referred to a sub
committee of S for comparison
with the Wilkinson bill. This
was a move for delay and is not
in harmony with the demands
voiced recently by proponents of
the Wilkinson bill in favor of
promptness in enacting a rural
credits law. There was objection
to this delay, but in the end the
Norton suggestion prevailed
The committee will, as a whole,
take no further action till next
week.
The main line of cleavage be.
tween the Wilkinson and the
Moen-Dahle factions is in the
administration of the proposed
act.
The Wilkinson bill calls for q
new board of three officials. each
drawing a salary of $4,000 per
year and authorized to appoint a
financial secretary and various
other helpers; the new DAZZLE.
Moen bill provides for a Rural
Credits Board. composed of a new
official. called the rural credits
director, the commissioner of
agriculture and the attorney
general. The first named shall
be the active head and manager
of the new department. Appi-
cations for loans shall be made
through the county auditors and
the farms offered as security
shall be appraised by local Of
ficials, who know the value of
lands in the various counties,
although these appraisals must
be finally approved by the Rural
Credits Board. The rural credits
director shall be paid $1,000 per
year and be an expert in the
farm-loan business. The attorney
general and the commissioner OF
agriculture shall receive no addi-
ton to their present salaries.
There is little doubt that sen.
timent for the Dahle- Moen Bill is
growing among the legislators
who realize that the farmers and
other taxpayers of rural Mime.
sofa are death on the creation OF
more salaried boards, bureaus
and commissions.
The senators have, rs yet, de,
voted little or no consideration
to rural credits bills. as they
await the final action Of the
house.

The Chautauqua

The Cadmean Chautauqua System
of Topeka, Kans., filed its engagement
here last Friday, Saturday and Sun
day. The programs for the most part
were good, and we believe that those
who attended would not say that they
did not get their moneys worth. The
program Saturday night was especi-
ally pleasing, as was also those of
Sunday afternoon and evening. The
two lectures by DIR. johnson were said
by many to ,have been as good as they
ever heard.
A contract for the 1924 season has
not been closed as yet Some of our
people want change, some want a
costlier program, with brass band
number and and other heavy attrac-
tions, and so the committee that has
been guaranteeing these attractions,
did not feel that the people of the
town would pay the price that would
have to be charged for tickets. Quite
number pledged themselves to buy
tickets for next season, but not any
thing like enough to take care of the
expense for more than three day
chautauqua.
