Roads are abso- lutely necessary for northern Minne- sota’s advance and by use of the El- well law telling results have already been secured. By all means let law remain, unless, as we have before said, it can be improved upon by amendment and further legislation. A proposition carrying much merit and what is in effect the taxation of state lands for local development is proposed in a bill introduced in the senate yesterday morning by Senator P. H. McGarry of Walker. It pro- vides that in counties having more than 5,000 acres of state lands now paying nothing toward local improve- ments, the equivelant of five cents an acre shall be spent in firebreaks for the protection of state timber, the work to be done under the joint di- rection of the state highway com- mission and the forestry bureau, and the fire-brakes to *be practical for road purposes. An appropriation of $112,500 annually is carried. The Immigration Department. Talk of abolishing the state im- migration department on the ground that it is of benefit ‘to land dealers and real estate men only does not sink very deep. During its exist- ance the department has advertised Minnesota in many states and by its efforts hundreds of settlers have been brought to Minnesota, many of whom are now substantial farmers -here. Does the purchase of land in the state and the locating of farmers here bring benefit to land men only? How can those who oppose the im- migration board answer this ques- tion. Every community is benefited by the influx of settlers and its mer- chants and business men in general are the gainers, not merely the land men. Charles T. Kelley, of Menagha, president of the Northern Minnesota Development association, is spending much time at St. Paul and is doing all in his power to oppose the abol- ishing of the department. In speak- ing of the matter, Mr. Kelley said: “I do not believe there is one valid reason why this department should not be supported loyally, and instead of cutting off its appropriation for advertising, I am confident that the state would be many times the gainer should the appropriation be doubled for this purpose. “During the past four years the ad- vertising which has been done in the interest of Minnesota by this depart- ment and other agencies has increas- ed the immigration fourfold over the previous four-year period. During 1914 there were more cars contain- ing immigrant movables consigned to Minnesota points than to Canada and all the western state combined. - “Are those who are opposing the continuance of this department aware that there are several million acres of virgin soil- in - Minnesota waiting the homeseeker;, and ‘'more millions of acres of partly:improved farms where rural ‘delivery routes, rural telephone lines; good - -roads, schools and markets are now avail- able to the settler?” KA AR KK KKK KK * ~ EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS - %/ TR K KKK KKK HKK KK KK A bill has been introduced in the legislature to restore capital punish- ment. ~There are -cases where the death penalty- is justifable, but the state is getting along fairly well without it.—Fergus Falls Journal. —— It'll take something more than the ery, “‘Out- with - the Demoerats” to land-a Republican in the 'White House twe years from the 4th day of ‘this “ocoming March.

Ludomila Alexinsky, of th Red Cross. In the battle of Gurbinnen in Ai gust, while helping to carry @ a wounded man out of the line of fire she was hit by a bullet in the hand. Tmmediately after her recovery she was transferred to the army in G licia where she was present in three battles, during one of which she was under fire for 17 hours. On another occasion a doctor whom she was assisting was killed by a shell, his body being blown against Mlle. Alexinsky with such force that she 'was stunned. After a brief rest she was again returned to the front and helped to succour the numerous gow. Later she went to South Poland and at the storming of Petrokov' she was again -wounded, this'time in the shoulder. Blood-poisoning ensued and she died in great agony. Mile. Alexinsky was the seven- teenth Russian Red Cross * nurse either killed in battle or died of wounds. The twenty-fifth anniversary of his literary career was spent by A. L. Kuprin, one of Russia’s most po- pular authors, in the trenches along the Vistula. It was while a pupil of the Moscow Military school -that Kuprin began his activities as a short-hand writer. His first attempt nearly resulted in his éxpulsion from the school, the director finally con- senting to his continuing his studies only on condition that he relinquish the idea of becoming an author. “It it much harder to be an efficient of- —_— ’ ?Nut Cake Simply Delicious By Mrs. Janet McKenzie Hill, F .qu/ the Boston' Cooking School Magazins In giving this recipe, Mrs. Hill be- lieves it to be one of the best all-around cake recipes it has.been: her good for- tune to make.
