"Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter is and accept it as a law of nature." —John Stuart Mill.
SATURDAY, JUNE 29, 1918.
IS IT FAIR?
We are sending millions of our young men, the hope of our nation, abroad to fight for democracy. Means while evidences are plentiful of a transmutation of our government, with a decided trend toward socialism. Is it fair to these young men who are about to shed their blood that democracy may live that we repudiate that democracy in their absence? Are they to return to a form of government for which they did not offer the supreme sacrifice, which they fail to recognize, and which they could not approve? If they are, then it may be that the peace which they helped to force on autocracy in Europe may have to be supplemented by a peace similarly imposed here.
BILLY THE BUNCO BOY
When on May 19 Billy Sunday closed a ten weeks' campaign for souls in the big tabernacle in Chicago, the final record was: Number of trail hitters, 49,165; expenses of the campaign, $135,000; number of co-operating churches, 424. The results of the campaign in additions to Chicago churches, it is estimated by the various pastors, will not exceed 1,000. One of the pastors said that nine-tenths were already church members and the other tenth yielded no results. Bill cannot succeed because he misrepresents Christ by drawing the color line in places where he ought to take a stand for right. As a bunco boy Billy is a bouncer.
EXCLUDED FROM SANITORIUM.
Colored people have been excluded from the Wisconsin State Tuberculosis Sanitarium. The superintendent, Dr. R. L. Williams, gave as a reason for excluding colored people that they have an offensive body odor which made their treatment with white patients inadvisable. The N. A. A. C. P. has protested to Governor Phillip of Wisconsin and directed the governor's attention to the fact that colored people are citizens and taxpayers of Wisconsin and are equally entitled to the benefits of public institutions provided by public funds. The Association insists that Dr. Williams' objections are

puerile and absolutely without warrant. The personal offensiveness such as alleged by Dr. Williams is a purely individual matter and not one of race.
ASS IN ELEPHANT SKIN
This is no time for partisan politics, declare the administration propagandists, but the Democratic national committee is out with a long statement showing the development of the American dye industry, the indirect purport of which is that the industry was built up without a protective tariff. As a matter of fact, the war has served as a greater protection to American industry than the highest tariff law ever enacted. Republicans believe that discussion of the past, present and future of American industry is timely, and the more the Democratic national committee has to say on the subject the better we shall like it. But we would also like to have the pretense of non-partisanship in administration circles abandoned.
DESPICABLE I. W. W.
At the trial of Private, Frank Wormkee, alias Frank Woods, one of 112 I. W. W.'s being tried in Chicago, it developed that he was requested to teach sabotage in the Army. Two forms of this sabotage were placing a substance in food to cause illness and the cutting up of clothing. Another form of sabotage which was practised by the organization was to put spikes in logs, concealed in the bark, to wreck mill machinery, and creating fires in the Montana lumber district was still another. Any one of these tricks is despicable enough in time of peace. In time of war it is rank treason and should be punished as such.
GLUTTING A FREE MARKET.
It is rather painful to note, in view of the insistent demands of the U. S. Food Administration that we eat more old potatoes, that our imports of potatoes for the calendar year 1917 increased 130 per cent over the calendar year 1913, nine months of which was under Republican protective tariff law, which carried a duty of 25 cents a bushel on potatoes, while, under the present law they are free. With our home market glutted with spuds, Canada and Bermuda still found it profitable to sell in our markets, under free trade, below the prices required to compensate our farmers for their efforts.
Now that Taft and Roosevelt have had a half hour of intimate conversation, who can say that some day we may not see President Wilson and Senator Chamberlain talking together once more?
There is little doubt that if the hat room boys in the city hotels were sent out on the farms to shear sheep, they would get all the wool the sheep would give up. The suggestion of the New York Sun is a good one.
ON THE RIGHTS OF MAN.
Influential colored men in various parts of the country have signed a strong memorial to the President, Cabinet, Congress and the Governors of the states. We quote a portion of it.
We are one group of American people than whom there is more none loyal, which is marked out for discrimination, humiliation and abuse. In the great patriotic and humanitarian movements, in public carriers, in Federal service the treatment accorded us is humiliating, dehumanizing and reprehensible in the extreme. This persistent and unreasonable practice is but a thrust at the colored man's self respect, the object being not merely to separate races, but to impress us with the idea of supposed natural inferior. Such demoralizing discrimination is not only a violation of fundamental rights of citizens

of the United States, but the persistent segregation of any element of our country's population into a separate and distinct group on the sole basis of color is creating a condition under which this nation can not long endure.
When we reflect upon their brutalities and indignities, we remember they are due to the fact that in all almost every Southern state we have systematically by law or chicanery been deprived of the right that very manhood suffrage which genuine democracy would guarantee to every citizen in the Republic. The propaganda of filching from colored Americans the ballot is but a supreme effort to reenslave us and to force our assent thereto. To this policy the colored man does not, can not and will not agree. Of it our intolerance is cumulative. Against it, we shall exert our righteous efforts until not only every eligible man, but every eligible colored woman shall be welding the ballot proudly in defense of our homes.
We are appealing to you neither as vassals or inferiors. Bull Run and Appattox tort fixed our status in this nation. We are free men. We are sovereign American citizens—free men who purchased our freedom with our own blood on every battle field from Bunker Hill to Carrilaz, full rights and immunities such as are freely granted to others but systematically refused to us.
IS THE LINE DRAWN YET?
The head of the American Red Cross is out in a denial of a part of the charges of discriminations by Red Cross against colored soldiers. He says that colored soldiers are served exactly the same as white soldiers, but there has never been much doubt about that.
Miss Martha M. White of Jacksonville, Fla., was the only colored delegate present at the meeting of the Council of National Defense at Washington.
She made a talk at the meeting. Bringing up the matter of a recognition of colored nurses, she received the positive assurance that the Red Cross had made no provision for use of colored nurses either in this country or in France, and that none would be made.
Will the Red Cross head kindly explain?
COLORED TROPOPS ALWAYS FIRST
Governor Whitman of New York was not to blame because he aided in the dedication of a fincrow branch of that travesty on Christianity, the Y. M. C. A.—he was invited by the segregationists who are engaged in the nefarious work of belittling Christ.
The governor, however, called attention to the fact that the New York colored regiment was the first to carry the stars and stripes to the firing line in France.
That is not strange. It was a colored man—a mulatto, Crispus Attucks, whose blood was first spilled in the Revolutionary war. In the battle of Lake Erie in the war of 1812, Commodore Perry's colored marines were first in the fight.
The Slaveholder's Rebellion the colored troops were not first because they were not allowed to enlist, but when they did get in, 200,000 were finally enlisted, and got to the front in a hurry.
At San Juan hill in Cubs in 1888 colored troops were at the forefront and at Carrizal in Mexico in 1915 they were among the first to die for their country.
In every American war, the "colored troops have fought nobly."
AMERICANS—THAT'S ALL

It isn't so much the amount of money you save as it is getting into the habit of saving a definite amount regularly. The best way to learn to save is not only to promise yourself that you will do it regularly but promise one else, your wife, your parent, your husband, or your teacher, that you will not let a first of the month or first of the week go by without saving.
The Habit of Thrift Will Help Win The War
The United States Government needs money to equip our armies and to fight for democracy. Your Government—the richest in the world—is willing to pay interest for your money now. Uncle Sam offers you $5.00 War Savings Stamps for $1.33 in exchange for a bundle of保险 each month thereafter.
A Thrift Card is furnished to the purchase of $25 cents Thrift Stamps. When all the spaces have been filled, Thrift Card may be exchanged for $5.00 War Savings Stamps at any post office or bank. You should save a certain amount regularly. Outline your program. Start at once by going to your post office and getting your first War Savings Stamp or Thrift Card. And stick to it. As you treasure your right to live, you should do not miss a single day on which you have determined a save.

aliens, although they are more than ninety-nine per cent of American birth; and there is a growing ten deny among the colored people to regard themselves as aliens. This is being encouraged by a class of leaders who call themselves "Negroes" and yell about "Negro Kultur" although they have not more than half and often less than one-eighth of Negro blood. Such men ought to stop the "Negro" propaganda and be Americans and demand justice because they are Americans and not by the false assertion that they are "Negroes."
They should not have any rights as "Negroes" but every right of an American citizen should be and will be accorded them, if they fight for their rights as American citizens by right of birth.
SOUTH LYNCHES THEM.
Henry Johnson, a colored soldier, of Albany, New York, has been cited and decorated by the French military authorities for what the French general of division terms "a magnificent example of courage and energy." With him was Needham Roberts, another colored man. "Both men fought bravely," says Pershing in his official report of the exploit.
On the same day that the cables from France brought the news of Johnson's and Robert's heroism, the wires from Valdesta, Georgia, brought the story of the lynching of a colored woman, Mary Turner by name, because she had attempted to resist the lynching of her husband.
This coincidence has moved the New York World to inquire: "With tens of thousands of American colored men fighting for civilization in France under the American flag, how much longer are the American people to tolerate lynching of colored men and women?
The answer is easy. Lynchings of colored people will be tolerated in the South—where they occur almost exclusively—so long as the political

party to which the New York World adheres is permitted to deprive colored citizens of their right to vote and thus, through the exercise of their civil rights, to protect their rights to property and to life.
NO SECTIONALISM?
A bill to provide pensions at a minimum of $25 a month for veterans of the Civil War passed" the House of Representatives by the impressive vote of 241 to 46.
Yet this is not the most impressive thing in the incident. The forty-six representatives who cast the negative votes were all Democrats and all but one of them came from the solid South or its immediate enviro. To them should be added two others, one from Tennessee and one from Texas, who answered "present" when their names were called.
The sole negative vote cast by a Northerner was provided by Mr. Gordon of Ohio, whose motives may best be determined by his constituents, who will have opportunity to pass upon the question next November. The other forty-five members who opposed the bill are probably beyond reach of any political or other chastisement. They hall from states where the loyal soldiers of the Civil War are held in execution; and the only method of dealing effectively with them is by placing their party in the minority in Congress. They constitute a majority of their party and when the Democrats are in power they dominate their party colleagues; and it is only on rare occasions that they can be overridden. This happened to be one of those occasions.
DEMOCRATS BROUGHT THEM IN.
"This department is too patriotic to use these pencils," wrote Inspector C. O. Myers to W. D. Fulton, Ohio's Secretary of State, on receiving a consignment of pencils marked
"Made in Germany." It was a fine aide on the Democratic officials of Ohio, whose party stands for free trade. They are "too patriotic" to use pencils "Made in Germany," but in 1913 their party was no unpatriotic as to make a bid for German competition in lead pencils, against those "Made in America," by reducing the tariff duty to a ridiculous rate, thereby enabling Germany to stock our market so full that our importers are carrying those stocks four years later. Do you Democrats and free traders now see the point? If the war lasts long enough perhaps you will learn something in regard to this matter. No amount of argument has ever been able to convince you.
The West Virginia Executive State Council of Defense, has placed a ban on the exhibition of "The Birth of a Nation" and all similar plays in that state during the period of the war. The action of the state council came as a sequel to the passage of a resolution by the McDowell County Auxiliary Council of Defense protecting against the showing of "The Birth of a Nation." The McDowell County Council, composed of colored citizens of that county and one of the units of the State Auxiliary Advisory Council, set forth that the attraction is one "calculated to arouse hatred and prejudice between the white and colored people of the state, and likely to hinder and retard the proper cooperation between the races in promoting the greatest efficiency in war work of all kinds."
It would be well for the colored citizens in every state to petition the State Council of Defense to put a ban on the infamous film. There is not much difference in actual effect between an American needlessly consuming materials needed by the Nation and a German sinking such materials at sea.

The National Food Administration is doing its utmost in every way possible to educate the people up to the fact that there is not enough food stuffs to supply our needs without the practice of rigid economy by everyone, especially the housewives. The forecast of available supply indicates grave danger of serious shortage, unless conservation is vigorously and nationally practiced. The slogan is: "In the Name of Liberty—SAVE FOOD".
There are a few honest and sincere colored men who use the term "nego" in describing themselves, but the majority who use the term are jimcrowists pure and simple. The time has come to eliminate such words as German, Negro, Irishman, Lithuanian, etc. People in the United States ought to be satisfied to be known as Americans. That one word is big enough to include all persons born in this country.
The Boston Guardian asks: Is Spin-garn playing double? Well, it certainly looks that way from this neck o' the woods. He is a Jew but has sought for himself all rights and privileges of American citizenship, while at the same time proposing and advising segregation and separation and segregation for colored Americans. Is there one who dares to deny it?
That was good advice Cardinal Gibbons gave to 5,000 Catholic soldiers at Camp Meade, Md. Among other things he said:
"First, last, and always, be as a band of brothers. No matter what state or nation you come from, no matter what race or religion, be as a band of brothers to defend your country against her enemies.
The estimated revenue of the government for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1918, is $4,095,698,000 over receipts of 1917. This speaks well for the loyalty of the people of this country.

General Pershing Denies Rumor in U. S. That Colored Men Get Most Dangerous Posts.
Washington. - Formal denial of reports circulated in this country that colored soldiers with the expeditionary force were placed in more dangerous positions in white troops has been called by General Pershing. Pershing's Cablegram.
The general's cablegram, which was in reply to one of inquiry sent by Secretary Baker, said: "The bravery invented by German agents, that colored soldiers in France are always placed in most dangerous positions and sacrificed to save white soldiers, and that when bounded they are left on the ground for the general attention, etc., are absolutely false.
"The following are the losses as reported up to June 18 in the four colony infanties: Three hundred and sixty-ninth infantry, died of wounds; 3; died of disease; 8; severely wounded; 2; 370th infantry, died of wounds; none; died of disease; 3; severely wounded; 371st infantry, died of wounds; none; died of disease; 8; severely wounded; none; 372d infantry, died of wounds; none; died of disease; 3; severely wounded, none.
Are Highly Efficient
"A tour of inspection just completed among the colored troops by officers of the training section of these headquarters show the comparatively high defense and efficiency among these troops.
"Colored troops in trenches have been particularly fortunate, as one regiment was there a month before any losses were suffered. This was the result of heretofore on the western front.
"The exploits of two colored infantrymen some weeks ago in repelling a much larger German patrol, killing several German and winning Color troops by their infantry has aroused a fine spirit of emulation throughout the colored troops, all of whom are looking forward to more active service.
"They have been assessed by colored troops is that they are not given more dangerous work to do.
"I cannot commend too highly the spirit shown among the colored com-
panies, who exhibit fine capacity for duty under the aggressions for the most dangerous work."

Boston Transcript Commits Treasures in Preferring Rulin of France Rather Than Mixture of Blood of Colored Races Fighting
(Boston Transcript.)
However, Tommy Akkins may to a considerable extent be inclined to settle in France. So, very likely, would be the whole body of the Portuguese who are fighting there, and the Italians, who are fighting there, and the laborers may stay, and so may the black soldiers from Senegambia and other African French colonies. Unfortunately the incorporation of most French populations into the future French population will be more than counterbalanced by the disadvantage of the mixture. France amalgamates all racial elements that enter her gates. Her best hope for an demographic future rests on such a strong base of of or sturdish Spanish and moral bases as would result in a normal increase of the native population, and a steady immigration of enterprising young people from French or Ligurian nationalities of the French nation should be Africanized or Asiaticized as the result of the war the country's eventual defeat, that source would be greater than that resulting from the destruction of her cities and the ravage of her fields.
IS THIS DEMOCRACY?

Editor Daily News:
We have in our household a young woman who is both our friend and our domestic assistant. Her ancestors happened to live in Africa through many centuries of southern sun and snow, is black, but she is a more interesting being than at least 75 per cent of the people who would, I suppose, designate themselves our "social equals," whatever that may mean.

I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than Race Prejudice; none at all. I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world.

On a recent evening she and we sat down at a table in a pharmacy and gave an order for three ice creams. Behind the counter two impudent people to whom nature had accorded authority under the understanding of Christianity—shook their heads in "superior" refusal. Of course the believer in real democracy or the brotherhood of man knows that the only inferior people are those who have to adopt snobbery and those who have no interest. And one does not expect snobbery to be able to interpret democracy. The incident has it, seems to us, a deep significance at this time when we are warring for democracy. Some are asking the brothers of our no cry in asking the brothers of our no cry in giving their lives for the democracy which these pseudo democrats interpret as synonymous with discrimination. That delight such incidents must give to German spacers! MARGARET HATFIELD CHASE, STUART CHASE.
UNCLE SAM NEEDS MORE CLERKS
Although the civilian workers in the national capital have increased from 30,000 to nearly 80,000 in the first year of the war, the government still needs more civil service commission announces that there is an urgent call for applicants for the positions of stenographer, typewriter, bookkeeper-typewriter, accountant, accounting and statistical clerk, statistician, clerk qualified in accounting, clerk qualified in business administration, index and catalogue clerk, scheduler, blue print clerk and assistant to business manager. These positions are open to both men and women. Representatives of the civil service commission all cities are prepared to furnish definite information and application blanks.
According to the civil service commission, the full extent to which the specialized clerk is needed is perhaps not generally understood, and it is in the best interest of the government to be of real service to the government at this time. Eighteen thousand stenographers and typists are at work constantly in the government offices at Washington, D. N., where a correspondence and records made necessary by observations on a scale such as the world has never known before.
NOISE IS NOT PATRIOTISM.
This year of all others is the time for a safe and sane Fourth of July celebration. Independence Day with the nation as war should be a thorny issue. The old-dime riot of noise, death and destruction, which was supposed to show patriotism, would be very much out of place under present conditions. The country needs the powder, and the nation to protect the life and limb which were wounded in the observance, and the millions of property which regularly went up in smoke and flame. Let next Thursday be safe and sane.
Hates the Term "Negro."
"I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. One only ten of one per cent of the colored people in America can trace their roots to Africa, and there is no more right than all colored people Negros than to call all Turkish or Armenian."—Ex-Arsentian United States Attorney General Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass.
SHOULD BE NO COLOR CASTE
The New York World, one of the greatest daily newspapers in the country, says in a recent issue: "If there is any ground for the complaint of Colored trained nurses that they are unjustly discriminated against them, the Cross, it should be removed at once. The man's fight as well as a white man's and the Red Cross should be the first of all bodies to recognize the fact."

Wednesday, June the 12th, at 4:30 p.m. A half hour before time for the ceremony a specially selected program of nuptial music was played until the bridal march from Lohengrin announced the approach of the bride and groom. Miss Bell wore an exquisite creation of ivory. Venetian chiffon fashioned, which was the gift of her god-parents. The round length skirt was made with a charmingly draped apron of princess lace, about which, on either side, fell soft panniers of the satin. Within the surplice folds of the bodice rested a white velvet corsage. The satin of the bodice was draped over a bodice of princess lace. The court-train, which hung from the ceiling, was made of narrow lace and seed pearls, the largest motif fashioned around the curve of the train, showing the delicate turns of the lyre, fell under the veil of tulle fashioned into a cap, with a wreath of real orange blossoms.
The bridal bouquet was a shower of lilies of the valley and roses. Tall, stately, strikingly beautiful and graceful, the bride presented a wonderful picture as she approached the altar on the arm of Dr. J. A. Lattimore. The groom approached the altar, accompanied by a friend of long standing of both his and the bride, Dr. J. S. Aegle, of Mt. Pleasant, Tenn., who served as best man. The ceremony performed by Dr. J. Watham, Episcopal rector. Miss Georgia Lattimore served as maid of honor, and little Lucille Jordan presented a very pretty picture as flower girl.
Mrs. King is one of the leading pianists of the Twin-cities. She is a native of St. Paul and has proven herself the equal, if not the superior, of any of the leading artists of the age. For fourteen years, she was the student with Bessie Parnell, Weston, who has recently coached Rudolph-Ganz, the eminent Smith composer and artist. Dr. King is a popular dentist of Knoxville, who is well known in Louisville, and is of a type which matches well with the charming personality of the bride. He is in the service of the British government, of which he is a subject. Mrs. King is an accomplished linguist, who has taken an active part in church and club work, and she will make a charming addition to Knoxville society as well as a useful young matron in the community. Following the ceremony, there was an informal reception at the Jordan home.
The going-away gown of the bride was of taupe fallle silk and white satin, with which she wore a becoming war-bride hat of white crepe trimmed with bands of tulle, over which was draped a handsome georgette vell of taupe. Taupe glace boots and gloves completed the charming traveling costume. She wore violets.
While in Louisville the bride was chaperoned by Mrs. W. H. Perry, who is well known in St. Paul, Minn., having visited Mrs. W. T. Francis, prominent social leader and club worker.
The bridal couple left Louisville for Knoxville, where they will be at home at 511 East Clifton avenue.
Miss Bell carried with her from St. Paul many handsome presents, an evidence of the high esteem in which she is held by her many friends.

The Masonic sermon at Bethesda Baptist church last Sunday afternoon was very largely attended, Pioneer and Perfect Ashlar lodges from St. Paul being present in a body. The usular ritualistic services were conducted by the members of the Order. Rev. D. E. Beasley, the pastor preached a splendid sermon.
Recent information from Mr. Charles Earl Duncan, of the Radio Corps, Camp Dix, N. J., states that he has been promoted to the rank of Corporal and assigned to Brigade Commanders. He joined Bethesda Baptist Church before he left the city and claims to be the leader of obligations. He is in good health and has taken out a $10,000 government insurance policy as he expects shortly to be sent "over there."

ATTORNEY TURNER WINS
W. M. Wells a former porter on the Great Northern Railway was awarded a verdict of $300 by a jury in Judge Haupt's Court one day last week. Wells claimed damage for false imprisonment having been taken from his train at White Fish, Mont., and held and caused to miss his train. The Chief Counsel for the Great Northern Railway took personal charge of the case on behalf of his road. Mr. Wells was ably represented by Atuly Hammond Turner who secured the case with costs. This verdict will tend to reinforce sideration of the porters and waiters of railroad corporations by the conductors in charge of the trains. Attorney Turner was commended highly by the attaches of Judge Haupt's Court in which he conducted the case.
HOLLOW RINK DRILL GROUNDS
Few persons could have made a contribution to the forwarding of the work of the Home Guard more beneficial, or highly appreciated that the privilege granted by Kranz Bros. for the indefinite use of the Hollow Rink, corner Kent and St. Anthony for drill ground. Next to granting the use of the grounds was the patriotic and democratic spirit in which it was granted. Immediately after the officers of Co. "B" made the request, one of the Kranz Bros. called for Capt. O. C. Hall, at the court house, with his car, drove several miles to secure the key and turned the place over for refreshment. True to the spirit always displayed by Co. B, the courtesy of Kranz Bros. has been extended to Capt. Wigginton for Co. A, also to the Red Cross for refreshment privileges. Tuesday night, both companies drill. Every drill night should be a society event. Addmission free.

That's a long way off but they expect to take the biggest crowd ever.
They will have a ticket selling contest for a prize of a magnificent diamond ring that will be placed on exhibition at Gittelson's jewelry store, 398 Wabasha street on next Monday. Go and see the beauty and see if it is not some prize to work for.
The committee is comprised as follows. C. E. Jones, chairman; Thomas Lewis, vice chairman; G. L. Lee, recording secretary; J. Louis Ervin, financial secretary; J. W. Milton, R. B. Beard, S. M. Lewis, Billie Williams, J. T. Clairbourne.
Persons desiring to enter the contest for the diamond ring should call to see J. Louis Ervin, 309 Court Block.

The Nation is being put to a supreme test. It requires the best of every man and woman in America. Efficient citizens are made by efficient homes. It is a patriotic duty, therefore, at this time, to keep the home and the home life up to the highest point of efficiency.
No home can do its best without a piano. You need it for the education of the children. You need it for the family life, to keep up good cheer, to make home really home. You need it that you may sing the nation's songs, thereby to keep burning the fires of patriotism. Can you imagine a patriotic people without the inspiration of patriotic music? Be sure to have music in your home, for your family's sake and for the sake of your country. We sell standard pianos on terms of from $5 to $10 a month. We rent pianos for $3.50 a month.

TRI-STATE- TELEPHONE.
Field work on the state telephone valuation was begun this week in Ramsey County, when a crew headed by Mr. Chas. H. Christilaw, of Glenwood, as chief, started to make a detailed inventory of all the property in the Tri-State Telephone & Telegram Company devoted to the long distance toll service. The task of appraising the value of the toll lines in Minnesota was imposed by the State Railroad and Warehouse Commission by the last legislature, and the Commission entrusted the actual work to Mr. D. F. Jurgensen, its Chief Engineer. He has about 10,000 miles of toll pole lines extending to every corner of the state to enter upon his reports, and as these must include a record of the condition of every unit entering telephone construction, and that to the minutest detail, the task is an exacting job. If a sufficient number of capable telephone men will be available this season, it is expected that the outside work will be finished this year.
The notes now being taken will not only give the Commission a complete record of the telephone property in the state, but the data will also form a basis in determining the reasonableness of the long distance telephone or telephone prevailing in Minnesota, which have been subject to some criticism.
The inventorying of the toll line properties of the Northwestern Telephone Exchange Company will be done a little later in the year.
