ployed, but also the business men
of the community as local people
would spend their money at home
and have not yet determined upon
a definite procedure. Letters have
been written to the Advisory Board
and to MIR. Hollenbeck in an en-.
deavor to obtain more accurate in
formation.
The Advisory Board has no au-
thority to interpret the laws and
rules laid down by the central au-
thority at Washington, but can
simply give their opinion as to the
effect OF these laws and rules and
! so far have had little experience.
Sixty-three applications have been
filed with the Minnesota Board
and the information required is so
detailed and complicated that only
two of these applications have been
completed. No Federal money has
been paid out as yet, although sew
eral applications have been ap-
proved and bids have been let OH
two projects where the government
is expected to contribute.
The government loans money at
4 per cent, in the Advisory Boards
opinion, will not accept the bonds
of the City payable ION or before"
the affixed maturity dates as they
think it is the intention of the
government to sell the bonds on
the open market to private invest
nj n nR
from the State of Minnesota at
Az per cent and the bonds be
paid at any time, and this privilege.
judging from the past experience
of the City, is of very great value.
The City also called on the State
Board of Investment to obtain in
formation as to borrowing money
from the State and on the State
Board of Health for information as
to various types of disposal plants.
The Imhon type, which is pro-
posed for Sank Centre is used in
most cities of this size and while
the initial cost is little more than
other types, it is much more eco
nomical to operate and is as effic-
lent as any other type of plant. =
The plans of the disposal plant
must be approved by the State
Board of Health and Mr.. Rogers,
Sanitary Engineer of that Board,
was in Sank Centre on Tuesday
looking over proposed sites, all of
which are located along or on the
river fat east of Birch street and
north of the Northern Pacific rail-
way.
Until site has been definitely Sc
lected the plans ana specifications
cannot be completed and the cost
of the plant cannot be very definite
ly estimated.
The sewage system of the Min
nesota Home School for Girls Is
connected with the City system at
the north end of Main street and
the State will be asked to pay its
proper proportion of the cost of
maintenance of the dispo sal plant.
This will save the necessity of the
State and the City maintaining sep
arate plants and will work to the
advantage of both. The State Board
of Control have made similar ar
rangements with the City Of Ro-
chester where State institution is
s located.

SALMON RUN
 ESHAMY BAY
 EXPECTED SOON

Owing to the belated salmon run in the Eshamy Bay, Knights Is- land vicinity, fishermen of that area have applied to the Bureau of Fisheries for a weeks extension of the season there, report fisher men who have just come from that area.
 The fishing season there is to be closed for seiners on August IS unless the extension is granted. It is pointed out that traps, which were to have been closed on Aug ust 5, that they were given an ex- tension of one week owing to the lateness of the run. It was believed that the same application would prevail with regard to the seiners. It was reasonably certain that run would start this coming week, or next week as it was thought that a recent storm in the area would hurry the laggard salmon into the bay. Only scattered groups of sal mon have gone into the area yet.
 Fishermen of the area report that the tides in the Eshamy Bay region make catches of salmon diff ficult at the present as the tides are SO strong they lift the leaded seines to within three feet of the waters surface.
 Three local boats, the Mayflower, the Roy, and the Copper and one gasboat. are in the area and are to fish for the local cannery.

Many of the white officers placed in
charge of colored soldiers are from
southern states. The first man shot by
Alternately, Capt Joseph R. Wesley,
was a native Texan. The lieutenant,
Harvey Matthews, is also Texan. 1t
is an open secret that the relations be-

officers are not pleasant.
For sometime there have been COM
plants among the soldiers here against
the treatment accorded them. They
are not allowed to deport themselves
as soldiers, but more like a regiment
of servants for the white officers The
soldiers are said not to be allowed to
have their wives with them unless the
wives will agree to be domestics in the
homes of the officers. Various re-
strictions which the soldiers detest are
placed upon the wives.

The Ministerial Al
lance Elects New
Officers

The Inter- Denominational Minister
ial Alliance of this City is reported to
have had one Of the best meetings last
Tuesday in the history of the organiza-
ton. Quite few new faces were pre-
sent Th1 new pastors together with
the Presiding Elders have already be-
come members of the Alliance.
Last Tuesday was election day. II
has been the custom of the Alliance for
the past six years to allow officers to
serve two years provided they were
able to render satisfactory service. The
Alliance was organized in 1926, with
Rev. Roy L. Young as promoter and
organizer. When he came to the City
there was no Ministerial Alliance oper-
ated by the Ministers of Meridian, but
he Immediately began an effort to or
ganize, and he was successful in doing
So. Being the promoter and organizer,
he was elected as its first president.
Some of those who were responsible
for successful organization were Revs.
T. Hutchins, M. J. Sherard, r. N. Jones,
H. B. Leach and E. F. Young. After
Rev. Young had served two years as
President the Rev. B. w. Coates, Pas
tor of Union Baptist Church was cleo
ted President. He served two succ-
dssful years. The Rev. M. T. j. Ho-
ward. pastor of St. Paul M. E. Church
was then elected and his term ends
next Tuesday.

believe that if a minister becomes in
volved in matters not becoming in his
own church or matters over which
satisfaction can not be reached, that he
should remain in that church until
these differences are ironed out. And
then if he desires to leave, leave hon
prably then there is a probability and
possibility CT being honorably accepted.
Wrong running from one place to an
other does not make right. We hope
that church leaders of all denomina-
tons will lock well before accepting
men who have been or who seem to be
under fire in their own churches. We
