REICHSTAG REFUSES
TO PROSECUTE PRINCE
Parliamentary Immunity Saves
Grandson of Iron Chancellor on
Speeding Charge.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BERLIN, June 11.-Parliamentary
immunity saved Prince Otto Won Bis
marcl, the Iron Chancellor's grand
son, from being prosecuted for auto
mobile speeding. Neither his princely
title nor his recent appointment to the
diplomatic service availed him before
the stern district attorney, who car
ried his prosecution SO far as to de-
mand that the Reichstag waive young
Bismarck's immunity.
Here, ho~ever, the solidarity of the
German solons asserted itself. The
district attorneys demand was read
out in open meeting amid hilarious up
road. President Loebe, Socialist, did
his German National colleague the
good turn of referring the whole mat
ter to a committee. in which it re.
ceived a first-class burial.

DOGS AID RABIES STUDY.
Scientists Say Vaccination Helps
Fight on Disease,

PARIS, June II characterization
of dogs has done much to stamp out
rabies, it was agreed by scientists
attending a recent rabies congress at,
the Pasteur Institute.
Japan, Italy and the United States,
it was said, had vaccinated several
hundred thousand dogs. The results
have shown that dogs so treated de-
veloped rabies in only a small percent,
age of the cases. This vaccination,
however, is said to give only tenn
porary protection. 1t must be re-
peated every year to be effective.

During Wednesday evenings
meeting much was said about the
need of weed boat. The Com
mission will purchase modern
steel boat next year and it will be
used at the time Of the year when
it will be most effective.
Before the meeting adjourned
the question of the unsightly boat
houses in the City Park were dis
cussed. The unanimous opinion
was that they were a nuisance. All
the houses are on city property and
the Herald predicts that the City
Council will order their removal,
and houses constructed along lines
approved by the Council.

Minnesota Road Work
Goes On Year Round
Skilled, Dependable Men Fill Most
of Jobs in Highway Building
and Maintenance

oho AykdlhSChahCC
Have you noticed that road work
nowadays is almost independent of
harvest and other farm wor Thir-
ty years ago it was all done during
some slack season, usually in
June, when it was convenient for
farmers to work out their road
taxes. Now it goes on the year
around, but it is at the peak in
July and August. Construction
crews take advantage of the dry
weather to put in full time. Main
tenance men are busy keeping the
road in shape for the heavy traf-
fic, as well as cutting weeds, clean
ing and repairing culverts and
bitches and great variety of 9th
er duties.
Also have you noticed the class
of labor employed in modern road
work? Both the men who operate
the various kinds of machines
which make up a grading or paw
ing outfit, as well as the mainten-
ance men employed by the state
or the counties, must have both
experience and intelligence. New
men must be broken in from time
to time, but in nearly all the jobs
they must be men who can go
ahead on their own initiative and
work without constant supervision.
A half century ago hundreds of
thousands of immigrants found
work in railroad construction. But
there are very few places in a
road building crew today where
either "green" labor or convict Ia
Dor can he used to advantage. A
paving crew, for instance, may be
stretched out over two or three
miles. The only trough" labor is
for two or three men handling
cement sacks. Hand finishing of the
slab has been greatly reduced, and
what there is, requires considerable
skill. Likewise in grading or gray
cling operations, nearly all the men
are operating steam shovels, cater
pillars or other tractors, or driv-
ing trucks. Most of the hand labor
must be classed as skilled or semi
skilled labor.
Maintenance patrolmen must be
men who are both dependable and
who know what to, do in a great
variety of situations. They have
no "section boss standing over
them, but only an occasional visit
by the foreman Orb district super
intendent. Special maintenance
jobs, such as reshaping, graveling,
spreading oil or taro snow removal,
bridge repairs, and taking care of
equipment, all require considerable
experience and ability to handle
machinery. q
It is estimated that $4,000 men
are employed in road work in Min
nesota this summer, including con-
tractors crews and state and
county employees, With steam
shovels, trucks and tractors they
move probably as, much material
as 100000 men with teams and
scrapers in the last century, or
accomplish as much as a half mil
lion men with the hand labor meth.

The story on the resorters
tournament at Alexandria in last
weeks issue of the Herald incor-
rectly stated that H. A. Falk had
lost both his first and consolation
matches. The gentleman did lose
his first round match but won in
the consolation event decisively.
Sank Centre, therefore, took one
flight and three consolators.

Comission Will Retain
Control of Sank Lake Level
Continued From Page y

Continued From Page u
The levels stated above meant
but little to the average business
man at the meetings because he
had never investigated; all they
wanted was that the lake level
should be always maintained to the
end that the unsightly weeds in
the lake should be eliminated.
Petitions were finally circulated
for signatures of the citizens ask
ing the Water, Light and Power
Commission TO purchase the dam
and flowage rights at cost not
not to exceed $4,000. These pet
itions were signed by a very large
percentage of the residents of
Sank Centre.
In the early Spring it is under
stood that the Water, Light and
Power Commission designated DR..
H. F. Hennemann to negotiate a
contract with the Milling Co., for
the use of the surplus water. The
contract was drawn by City At
torney Kells. The terms of the
contract could not be adjusted
satisfactorily. Mr.. Parker insisting
on the nine and seven foot privi-
lege, and DR.. Hennemann insisting
that the lake level should never
pass out of the control of the
Commission. The result has been
that the contract has not been
signed.
The lake level has been reduced
to approximately ten feet and there
is much dissatisfaction expressed
on the streets of the city. The
erroneous contention has been
made that the Commission has
signed a contract to permit the
withdrawal of the water to an un-
believably low level, and that the
public had been hoodwinked in the
purchase of the dam.
"wednesday evenings meeting
was called for the purpose of go
ing over the situation with the
business men who had worked with
the Commission in the negotiations
to purchase, and to consider a pc
tition of 20 farmers residing adj
jacent to Sank river southeast of
the city, in which they asked that
the water be held for period of
two weeks starting Aug. II, to
give them an opportunity to har-
vest the hay crop on the low
lands. The petition was unani-
mously granted, of course. The
only stipulation being that the
water will not be shut off until the
later part of the week to give
Mr.. Parker a couple of days to
get his electric motors in shape to
carry the load. The water will be
shut off Saturday evening of this
week and the farmers affected can
govern themselves accordingly.
Frank Perry, president of the
Water, Light and Power Commits
sion presided at Wednesday eve
ning's meeting. He called on the
business men present for a full
and free discussion of the dam
situation.
DR.. J.. A. Dubois urged that
the petition of the farmers be
granted. Relative to the water
level of the lake he felt that the
Water, Light and Power Commits
sion should take enough time to
study the lake situation very care
fully before entering into any
contract with the Milling Co. He
expressed the thought that any
surplus water should be sold to
the Milling Company at a nominal
price.
V. G. Wedge said the lake level
should be kept up if the public
were to get any lasting and direct
benefit in owning the dam and
fiowage rights.
D. B. Caughren argued that
