AS matter Of fact, the Social
Security Board had already wired
Kenneth Haycraft, director of old
age assistance, that no additional
information was required.
The Social Security Board had
previously indicated that it would
refuse to approve the Minnesota
old age assistance plan unless as
surance were given that additional
funds for state administration
would be made available. The state
board of control consulted with the
legislative interim committee on
social security and asked them to
make some assurance to the Social
Security Board in Washington that
additional funds would be avail
able in January, 1897. This assur-
ance was given and the way was
paved for federal approval The
trip of the conservative legislators
to Washington would seem to have
been entirely unnecessary.
Most truck and bus operators
realize the necessity for load res
trictions on certain highways dur
ing the spring breakup but there
are always a few who must be ar
rested by the highway patrol for
not playing fair with the public in
this matter.

Bruno Hauptmann
Died In Electric Chair
All Last Minute Efforts OF De-
Tense Attorneys To Save
Client Failed

Bruno Richard Hauptmann was
executed Friday night for the Lind
bergh baby MURDER crime he re-
fused to the end to admit
He was pronounced dead at TAI
p. m. after three shocks in the
electric chair in the gloomy, stone
prison where he so long had been
kept alive through a series of ex-
traordinary and startling develop
ments.
Hauptmann, the man who would
not talk during long hours of po-
lice grilling and during the 13
months he occupied cell half a
dozen PAGES from the electric chair,
went to the execution chamber
without word passing his lips.
Thus vanished forever the oft-ex-
pressed but little-entertained hope
that he would confess that he
climbed the rickety ladder, took the
child and exchanged it's sleeping
garments for $4,000 ransom.
The three score witnesses, who
crowded the little room at state
prison where New Jersey puts it's
condemned to death, sat tense,
wondering whether the stoical
Bronx carpenter would at last
break.
Colonel Mark 0. Kimberling,
dark and soldierly warden, told the
witnesses a few minutes before
they marched silently through the
prison yard to the little red brick
death house that "if Hauptmann
talks, will handle it."
But Hauptmann did not say a
word. Not even murmur passed
his lips.
AS two guards led him into the
chamber at 8:41, he was ashen
white. His shaver head accentuat-
ed his almost CHASTITY appearance.
His white face matched his white
cotton shirt.
Once he looked at the witnesses
Something resembling a sheer come
over his face.

Of the most popular varieties for
bedding purposes. OF very bright
scarlet crimson, it blooms all sum-
mer long. 1t is one of the hardest
OF what are called the hybrid teas.
Roses delight in open, airy situ-
atoms, all types are partial to clay
loan, but succeed in any ordinary
soil that has been enriched with
well rotted barnyard manure. The
soil should be well spaded to a
depth of twelve to fifteen inches.
Give the roots plenty of room when
planting, pouring in half pail of
water when doing so. Shake the
plant lightly, so that soil may fall
in evenly about roots to avoid cav
tiles. Firm well around the plant
that it may be solid. Be sure that
the buds or CRAFTS, where the lower
branches begin, are at least two
inches below the soil. 1t is very
good practice to cut back the plant
six to eight inches when planting.
Bush roses are generally set about
liz feet apart, while climbing vari-
cites are set to 6 feet apart when
several plants are set out. More
notes on roses next week.

Observation-Disclosures

He slumped into the chair. Three
guards fastened the straps about
his arms and body, and the elect
rode on his right leg.
Robert Elliott, the official execu-
toner, adjusted the headpiece and
the mask.
At 8:43, Elliott spun the rheostat
wheel that sent 1000 volts of cur
rent through Hauptmann's body.
Hauptmann stiffened, his arms be-
came tense. The muscles on his
bare right leg bulged.
Slowly, Elliott reduced the volt
age to 300 volts.
At S:44, a second shock of 1000
volts went through Hauptmann's
body. 1t did not stiffen this time.
There was no muscular reaction,
and again the voltage was reduced.
At 8:45, Elliott applied a third
shock, held it a minute and then
cut off the current.
DIR. Howard Weisler, the prison
physician, stepped forward, held
the stethoscope a minute to Haupt-
mann's chest and stepped back.
The prison physician turned to
Colonel Kimberling, who had stood
with head bowed for six minutes,
having attended the electrocution,
but not having seen 1t. He looked
up for the first time.
This man is dead" the doctor
said.

Political Dope
FARNIER-LABOR
By A I Harris

An action of far-reaching signi-
ficance in the history of American
liberalism was taken when the
state Farmer-Labor convention
went on record favoring calling of
a conference to take up the matter
of forming a national Farmer-La-
Dor party.
1t is known that millions of lib
erals throughout the nation look to
the movement in Minnesota for
leadership in the struggle against
economic despotism. A national
third party in 1896, which could
elect progressive bloc both in the
House and Senate with political al
legiance to neither of the old par
ties, would unquestionably have a
wholesome effect on the course of
legislation during the next four
years.
Liberals are not in complete
agreement on the wisdom of plaC-
ing national presidential ticket in
the field for 1886, some contend
ing that it may defeat Roosevelt
and place in power a reactionary,
fascist regime. Roosevelt's course
in the next few months may be a
determining factor. That a third
party, advocating fundamental
changes in our decrepit economic
system, and boldly declaring
against war and fascism, will enter
the American political arena, seems
certain.
The state railroad and warehouse
commission has issued an order
providing for telephone rate re-
auctions for residents of the st.
Paul area amounting to from 10 to
30 per cent, terminating proceed
ings dating back to February, 1882.
Attorney General Person, back
ing up the decision, said that he is
prepared to go to court and re-
quire the Tri-State Telephone and
Telegraph company to post a bond
covering any excessive fees col
lected before the rate cuts ordered
by the commission have been ap-
proved by the courts.
Pointing out the necessity for
rate reduction in Minneapolis, the
attorney general wrote the COM
mission as follows: "A preliminary
survey made in 1929 indicates that
existing telephone rates in Mime
apolis are excessive. Your decision
in the st. Paul rate case will re-
suit in a saving to the people Of st.
Paul of 100000 per year. A CORES
ponding reduction of rates in Min
neapolis would effect a saving of
at least $750,0O0 to the telephone
patrons of that city"
The Division of Women and
Children of the Minnesota Indus
trial Commission collected S944.64
in unpaid minimum wages for min
ors during the month of March.
Wage discrepancies have increased
since the invalidation of the MIRA.
In another of its efforts to dis
credit the administration, one of
the Twin City dailies gave credit
for the final approval Of the Min
nesota old age assistance law to
two conservative state representa-
tives who went to Washington to
confer with members of the Social
Security Board.

PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICAN
BY r.. w. Hitchcock

ny ". w. t1ltcncOcK
The effort of the farmer-iabor
party to clothe it's revolutionary
platform with an air of reasonable
ness and responsibility recalls the
climax of an incident that took
place in Minnesota many years ago
A. d. Stephens, for many years a
financial power in the Red River
Valley, former state senator and
once candidate for governor, tells
the story on himself in the pioneer
days of the Valley.
Dramatis Personae: Joe Jarvis,
a first class fighting man; Gunder
Krostue, a lustry Viking; A. D.
Stephens, a Fishers Landing Store
keeper; E. st. Julien Cox, a slightly
soiled lawyer.
The time: Ox-cart and steamboat
days of the Red River Valley.
The place: County of Polk in the
State of Minnesota.
Act L
Night time at Fishers Landing,
thriving head of navigation in the
Red Lake River. A crash of break
ing glass and the yelping of dog
shattered the night air of the
peaceful village. Storekeeper A. D.
Stephens, who lived above the store
was awakened by the uproar. Hast
lily pulling on his trousers and slip
ping pistol in his nightshirt, he
ran downstairs and into the street.
He found his front window broken
and inside a familiar braided rope.
1t was the rope with which Joe
Jarvis, famous with his fists, teth-
cred his dog. Stephens recalled the
yelping, and it was plain to him
that Joe Jarvis, FOSTERING along
the street, had thrown his dog
through the window. The dog had
escaped but had left the tell-tale
rope behind. Naturally incensed,
Stephens hotfooted it to the village
saloon. There he found Joe Jarvis
and accused him of the damage.
Jarvis, nothing loathe for a fight,
backed Stephens into corner,
whereupon Stephens drew his pis-
toll. At this moment, Gunder Krost-
lie, a clerk in the Stephens store,
appeared on the scene and promptly
sailed into Joe Jarvis. It was bat
tie royal. Joe Jarvis, renowned
throughout the Valley for his
strength and fistic skill, had never
been licked. The two had fought
before, to a draw. But this time
the young Norske was too much
for the older man. Gunder Krostue
gave the first class fighting man a
thorough licking.
A court room at Crookston, ten
miles from Fishers Landing. The
modification of that licking had
sunk deep in Joe Jarvis soul. He
had sued his conqueror, Gunder
Krostue, and he had joined Store
keeper Stephens in the suit. Steph-
ems had egged the young Norseman
on, Jarvis declared in his complaint.
E. st. Julien Cox was attorney for
Joe Jarvis. Cox had been a judge
in Southern Minnesota and was one
of two judges, in all the history of
Minnesota, to be impeached and
removed by the state senate. He
was an eloquent speaker, much
given to resounding periods and
impassioned oratory. He wept over
Joe Jarvis. Poor Joe Jarvis, al
ready past the meridian of life, and

his declining years shortened by
this treacherous assault" He pic
tured the young Norske giant, "a
fierce son of the fierce Vikings OF
old" wreaking his Northman's
fury upon poor Joe Jarvis" Final
ly he got around to the egger-on,
Storekeeper Stephens. "And this
man Stephens" he shouted, lately
come among us and wearing the
air of responsibility; it shall be
with him, as it was with the yelled
prophet of Khorassan, when the
silver veil is torn from his face,
there will be exposed the visage
of dirty dog!"
AS it was with The yelled prophet
Khorassan, so it is with the yelled
farmer-labor platform of 1886,
lately come among us wearing the
air of responsibility; when the veil
of cant and hypocrisy is torn from
its face we behold the visage of the
dirty dog of 1884.
The farmer-labor state conven-
ton almost forgot about the far
mer end of the party. At the elev-
enth hour it luckily remembered
and put farmer on it's handpicked
ticket.
There is one dirt farmer who has
rendered loyal and effective SER
vice to the farmer-labor party. Him
the party is treating rather shah
billy. Perhaps the men and women
Of the farmer-labor party who are
really devoted to the principles for
which it was originally formed will
pay him tribute at the primar-
les in June when they find the
name of Magnus Johnson on the
ballot as a candidate for the far
mer-labor nomination for governor
Of Minnesota. Perhaps they will,
perhaps not.
It's not that which matters so
much, but it is seamy, shabby and
sordid that party, sitting in the
seat of power, can do nothing bet
ter for one of it's members, whom
the people of Minnesota have hon.
ored by making him a United
States senator, than to give him a
job as weighmaster at the South
st. Paul stockyards.

ton:
Farmer-LabOr Administration
The Farmer-Labor administra-
ton of the last five years has been
a government of grossly selfish
partisanship. It has preached re-
form but has practiced government
for personal profit. We demand
change and a return to good gov
eminent and the soundly progress
sive policies which prevailed under
nearly seventy years of Republican
rule in Minnesota.
Economy
We call attention to the fact
that states surrounding Minnesota
or near neighbors to it, have reg
ularly balanced their budgets
throughout the depression, and
that they are today in better con-
dition to promote recovery than
Minnesota, which for five years
has been spending itself into year

THE GARDEN

BY Ferdinand Wiener

The rose is often spoken of as
the queen of the garden. Both
sacred and profane writer's have
mentioned the rose in their litera-
ture. So much has been written
in the praise of this plant by
ancient writer's who were so
occupied with singing it's virtues
that it is not definitely known
when and where man first began
its culture. But we do know that
is was a long time back, in fact, it
seems, that man has been culti-
waiting the rose ever since he did
any gardening at all.
Of course the original roses were
all of the single type, until after
continuous cultivation, double-flow-
ering forms were found. Pliny
the ancient writer, speaks of a
hundred-leaved rose.
Roses are found growing wild
on all continents of the world, ex-
cept Australia. There are also roses
to be found in Greenland and Ice,
land. There are approximately one
hundred species throughout the
world. Our modern roses had their
origin in the crossing of various
species, the hybrids of these in turn
were of course, crossed again. To-
day, there are rosarians who spend
their lives in the endeaver of pro-
ducing better roses.
The best and most dependable
roses for the North are of course,
the Rugosa roses. The double
forms have blood of the hybrid per-
petual roses in them, the Rugosa
as it grows in the original state is
a single Towering rose, which was
brought into the United States
from Japan in 1855 by Commodore
Perry.
Ire Rugosa is the hardest rose
known. 1t will grow anywhere
in the north without protection. 1t
belongs to the bush type of roses,
which are not pruned as severely
as other types, in fact, they are
pruned but little.
Many of the Rugosa varities will
bloom more or less all summer.
Some good varities are: Hansa, Sir
Thomas Upton, c. F. Meyer, F. j.
Grootendorst, Belle Poitevine, Ame-
liza Gravereaux. The single Rugosa
is often used for informal hedges.
1t blooms throughout the summer,
altho like all other roses, the most
flowers are secured in June.
The hybrid perpetuals are quite
hardy in the north, especially so,
if given some protection. They are
not quite as thorny as the Rugosas.
Most of these also belong to the
bush type, but may be pruned more
intensively than the Rugosas. In
fact, one may cut them within eight
Inches to the ground, and they will
spring up, forming strong plants
with fine, large flowers. There are
a number in this class that are de-
pendable in the north. Paul Ney-
ron, very large rose-pink variety,
is one of the writer's favorites.
Frau Karl Druschki is a white var
iety, one Of the very best roses in
this color. Very large blossoms.
It does not bloom all summer long
as does Paul Neyron, but there will
be occasional blooms. Magma
Charta is an old favorite with very
large bright rosy red flowers
General Jack is another rose OF
great popularity, having been the
standard red for seventy years.
Another rose that we see occa.
sionally that is very hardy and de
pendable is the Persian Yellow
The flowers are small, double, anG
of a golden yellow in color.
