Mr.. f. Mattson, the Minnesota
Elevator and Warehouse weighmas-
ter, appointed by the state board of

him, and while it holds out hope
that the law creating the board and
himself and the law itself, may be
worked over into something useful,

"public" enough to do Il general
business without the "aid" of a
weighmaster. Mr.. Mattson wants
some more "law'' or the question.
