Samuel G. Iverson, state auditor, has paid out $4,117.50 this year on wolf bounties. The counties pay the bounties, and are then reimbursed by the state. The state pays $7.50 for a full-grown wolf and $3 for a cub. This fall 531 wolves and forty-five cubs have been killed in the state. A large number of bounties have been paid by Auditor George. Estimates presented to congress at Washington yesterday put the cost of conducting the government during the fiscal year 1916, which begins on July 1, next, at $1,090,775,134. This sum is $3,392,962 less than the con- gressional appropriations for the cur- rent fiscal year ending next June 30 and $17,960,643 less than the esti- mates for the current year. With such a boosting trio as Charles T. Kelley, Frank 8. Lycan and George C. McCarthy, elected as officers, the loss of W. R. Macker as secretary of the Northern Minn sota Development association, will not be as keenly felt as was first be- lieved. It looks as though the or- ganization has a banner year ahead and its plans, should it be possible to carry them out, will bring great benefit to this section. Robert C. Dunn, of Princeton, state senator-elect from the Fift; fifth district, and well known in Min- nesota political life for a generation, expects during the coming session to take a leading part in obtaining leg islation to protest the state’s inter- ests in ore deposits founds in beds of navigable streams and meandered lakes. Recently the Minnesota su- preme court sustained the enactment of 1909 asserting the state's title tc such ore bodies. This law provided that the proceeds from the sale of iron from these lake and river beds shall go to the state good roads fund and Mr. Dunn naturally is much in- terested in this feature, being the author of the new road law, known as the “Dunn act.” He is for good roads, first, last and all the time. LEEE R R EREEEEEEEE] * EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS * KRR KKK KKK KK The quiet and effectual way in which Spain is keeping out indi- cates that bull fights aren’t so aw- fully inhumane, after all.—Owa- tonna Tribune. — The legislature should move cau- tiously in the matter of any changes in the Dunn road law. ‘Possibly a minor amendment here and there might improve it, but the law has not as yet had a chance to properly demonstrate its strong points, which will come if the law is left unhamp- ered by radical changes.—Madison Independent-Press. i Many newspapers are advocating the repeal of the non-partisan feat- ure of the primary election law. We never could see any reason why coun- ty officers should be elected upon a partisan basis, but we think that to include the legislature in the non- partisan class is a mistake. Parties represent the issues that arise from time to time, and when the people have settled a certain issue by elect- ing the party to power which rep- resents their views upon the question it is essential that such party has a legislature of the same political faith to carry out the mandate of the peo- ple.—Mora Times. AMERICANS - SAVE ' BELGIANS People of Liege Doff Hats and Cheer Relief Autos. Rotterdam, Holland, Dec. 8.—" Amer- fcan food has saved us from starva- tion,” declared a Belgian committee wan, when distributing supplies from relief shipments in Liege province. “All our grain was exhausted, be- cause all of it was requisitioned for use in the German army.” =~ “The Americans have saved us from starvation,” was heard on every hand, and all Americans seen in Liege were hailed as benefactors. ‘Whenever an American automobile carrying an American flag is seen in the streets of Liege the people take off their ihats and- cheer ‘for the country that saved them. PRESIDENT OPPOSED- T0 DEFENSE INQUIRY ‘Washington, Dec. .—President Wilson announced that he is opposed to Representative Gardner’s plan for investigating the preparedness of the United States for national defense, because he thinks it is an unwise way of handling “a question which might create unfavorable internation- al impressions.” - Representative Gardner called on the president at the latter's request to discuss his resolution for an in- vestigating commission. After Mr. Gardner’s call the following state- ment was given out at the White House: “The president told Representative Gardner that he is opposed to the method of inauiry proposed by Mr. Gardner, because he thinks it is an unwise way of handling a question which might create very unfavorable international impressions. He said to Mr. Gardner that he is entirely in favor of the fullest inquiry by the committees of congress and that there are no facts in the possession of the executive departments- which -are- not at the disposal of those committees.” THOUSANDS SEEK SHELTER New York’s Homeless Driven From Streets by Storm. New York, Dec. 8.—Driven from the streets and parks by a light fall of snow, followed by an icy rain, thou- sands of homeless men applied to the municipal lodging houses and scores of shelters maintained by charitable organizations for food and places to sleep. The municipal lodging house cared for 1,669 men and having no more room threw open one of the municipal piers, where nearly a thousand more were given shelter for the night. ERER TURKS REPORT REPULSE OF BRITISH. Constantinople, Dec. 8.—De- feat of a British landing force and an advance to within less than twenty miles of Batum is claimed in an official state- ment. A British landing force be- tween the Tigris and Suvaya, which attempted to take the- Turkish position, was repulsed with heavy loss, the statement stated. Leo Frank Loses Again. Washington, Dec. 8.—The supreme court refused to issue a writ to re- view Leo M. Frank's conviction for the murder of M v Phagan, an At lanta factory giri.
