Northern Minnesota has a friend at court in J. A. O. Preus, state au- ditor, and at the opening of the ‘“‘de- velopment conference” of the North- ern Minnesota Development associa- tion held at Coleraine he pledged his undivided support to the cause of this section and predicted closer com- petition regarding immigration from Europe after the war. The auditor recalled that Northern Minnesota asks but two things from the state—development and immigra- tion. With -emphasis he reminded those in attendance at.the booster conference that proper methods of development must be adopted by the counties of this section and also by the state before immigration can be of such value as to yield lasting benefits. “Of the 51,749,120 acres in the state of Minnesota, only 27,675,823 are under the plow, according to the report of the state immigration com- missioner,” said Mr. Preus. “It must be clear to any one that lands sold, that have been thus improved, would go into the hands of active settlers and not into the hands of speculators. Again, the from the productions of thousands upon theusands of acres of land will mean millions of dollars in the out- put of the people of the state of Min- nesota. “With the end of the war we may look for the end of great immigration from Europe. The countries there will need their own men and prob- ably will prevent them, as nearly as possible, from emigrating. Minne- sota will be more in competition with the balance of North America than heretofore. The state lands of Min- nesota should be sold and the pro- ceeds therefrom turned into our school fund, which, in turn, will re- duce the taxes of the people of the entire state. “It should be the object of the state to sell its lands to actual settlers. You people in Northern Minnesota are entitled to this consideration from the state. But in order to get people to purchase these lands who are actual settlers—good roads, drainage and assistance in prepar- ing some of the land for cultivation must also be provided for. Indeed, these have been so slow in coming and the taxes have been so high that a great many of the people of this section of the state have themselves been clamoring for the sale of our school and swamp lands at the earli- est possible time, regardless of wheth- re they go to settlers or not in order that the taxes on these lands may be paid to the county and thus help defray the public expenses of the community. For this reason it is imperative that roads, schools, drain- age and assistance in clearing cut- over lands be afforded at the earliest possible time. The state lands should not pass into the hands of specula- tors lest added burdens if the way of purchaes price be heaped upon those who actually desire to settle " in this state.” Mr. Preus discussed the work done by the reclamation board and gave figures showing how very expensive, under present methods, it is to clear Northern Minnesota lands. He also dwelt on the construction of county and judicial ditches, and = discussed the revolving fund amendment-which provides substantially for state aid for prospective settlers. ‘‘Minne- sota,” he said, “does not want mere- ly drainage and good roads, which must bring taxes, but she wants- it made possible for settlers to make a living on the lands which they come to occupy. “As commissioner of. lands under the Constitution of this state, I 'as unpleasant as his-staying. returns pledge you my undivided support and' I shall be delighted to assist any such organization and to give what little political experience and knowledge of organization, in political campaigns, that I may have, to this movement and to set aside all my party interests to the advancement of this great non-partisan cause.” ERKKKERKXK KKK KKK ¥ EDITORIAL EXPLOSIONS * KRR H KKK HK KK KKK KX Boss Lynch of St. Paul, in a talk last night at Minneapolis, gave it out that President Wilson for the Democrats and Theodore Roosevelt for the Republicans, would be the candidates for president next year, with Wilson the winner. That’s the frame-up and result that would please Mr. Lynch, but this is a large country and there are a good many people interested who will not con- sult the gentleman from St. Paul.— Stillwatér Gazette A plan is on foot to hold county option elections simultaneously in Ramsey, Hennepin and .St. Louis counties some date during the early fall. The three largest cities of the state, Minneapolis, St. Paul and Du- luth, are situated in these counties and the optionists figure that by holding the elections on the same day and thus dividing the fighting forces of the wets, they will be able to win out in all contests. From a distance, however, it looks like a pretty big job to dry up Ramsey and St. Louis counties, while in Henne- pin the drys claim to have more than a fighting chance.—East Grand Forks Record.

He has chosen to make his leaving He de- serts the president at a moment of grave international complication. He deliberately does all that lies in his power to create a prejudice against the note to be sent to Germany.

Instead, and here is the injury that he can do by creating a semblance of divided coun- sels in the cabinet, where he stands alone, he gives aid and comfort to the opponents in Germany and here of the firm assertion of the rights of Americans upon the seas.—New York Sun.

Inasmuch as' all of these pictures have a direct bearing upon the text matter which they accompany, it is plain’ to be seen that the Bible is one that will be used in preference to all others, for it makes plain many ob- seure passages in the great universal language of art which all can easily interpret! Another feature in this illustrated Bible is the self-pronouncing text.
