OUR NEW STATE OFFICE BUILDING
By F. W.

Have seen the nice new state office building that rapidly being built in St. Paul? Have you ever considered what we need this state office building for? This new office building is needed to have more tn make more taxes. tn give more jobs to more bureaus, so we will need another state office building to house more bureaus to give more jobs to cause more taxes to build a third state office building to house more bureaus to give more jobs to make more taxes.
