Local Author Gets Good Response.

Rev. jobs. Knudsen, who, during re
cent months published book en-
titled, introduction to the Danish
Language" has enjoyed good sale up
to date. Just recently he received
inquiries from Llewellyn Jones, editor
of Willett, Clark & Co. of Chic go, and
from the Albert BONNER Publishing
House in New York.
Mr.. Jones. while not being of Sean
dinavian descent, has worked on the
mastering of several languages and is
interested in Rev. Knudsen's book in
that he has heard it has qualities
which possibly could make it easier
for him to learn the Danish language.
Rev. Knudsen still has copies of his
book on hand and when they are gone
a second publication is prepared to be
rushed to completion.

however, yesterday morning when the

it really is "a below. In fact it was
so cold that there wasn't anybody

reserve and bonding future income
apparently with the intention of put
ting off the day of settlement with
the hope of landing control of the
state administration for 1887.
Financial Condition.
1t is amusing to hear the rather
conflicting reports on the condition
of the states finances. One day, a
picture is painted of the terrible
straits the treasury is in. One re-
port shows that the state is $1S,000,-
900 in the rec. But when the liberals
propose to wipe out the red by pay
as-you-go plan and placing the burden
more equitably upon income and in
heritance taxes, then figures are so
prepared and so reported that the
state is in position to raise 100000
for direct relief and $3.5O0,O00 for old
age pension without increasing the
mill rate and without change in the
tax system. There can be only one
result. Without providing for more
revenue we are only stalling off the
day OF reckoning.
Contributing to Economic Security.
AS the end of the special session
approaches, l am reminded of the
parting thought in the governors mes
sage:
May your efforts lead to your sim
cere conviction at the close of this
session that you have genuinely con-
tributed to the economic security OF
the people of Minnesota"
May the taxpayers and voters, the
aged and the unemployed of Mime
sofa be the Judge and the jury and
may they not forget that another
political campaign will soon be under
way.
