Our Legislative spendthrifts now pro-

Of peace, the regiments of the state pre-
sent the appearance to a great extent

in cases of trouble and emergency they

lures. The expense incurred IN sup
porting them is comparatively small;
no larger in fact than is warranted by
the needs of the state. They are to a
great degree self supporting, and the
little appropriation for militia purposes
is no more than would easily be
saved to the state through the
existence Of two or three well equipped
regiments in times of trouble. If the
legislature is really seeking for some.
thing onswhich to make reform inroads,
I it should turn upon itself. The ex-
pense to the state Of running that body
for three months is far in excess of that
shouldered upon it by the militia, and
the good results are even less in pro-
portion to the outlay. The trouble with
our Legislators is that they are endeavor.

l. l.
view Of the interest question when it
says that the only proper interest bill is
the one that fixes - low legal rate of in
terest to cover cases where no rate is
specified in the contract, but al
lows perfect freedom between borrower
and loaner under the usual conditions.
It is the only sensible bill, because,
when on the statute books,it is the only
one that will work. Laws do not al
ways operate in the way we would have
them, and an interest enactment least
of all. The rate of interest, like the
value of all commodities, depends upon
the supply and demand. Capitol seeks
investment wherever it obtains the best
returns. If law is enacted in Mime.
sofa which forbids the loaning of mon
ey at the same rate granted by other
states, it can be expected that capital
will not be slow in seeking the more
profitable fields. It will remain in Min
nesota just as long as it can get a fair
return on the investment and no longer.
Force the rate of interest down and in
Just the same ratio it has been made
more difficult to borrow money at all.
In no way has the capitalist been Sc.
riously injured or set back, but the bor-
rover is placed at q disadvantage ow-
ing to the CONSEQUENT scarcity of mon
ey. For the latter class is all this pro-
posed usury legislation .intended, but
so plain is it's absurdity that it seems
strange that any, but demagogues,
! should come forward in the name Of
the people with measures, so detrimen-
| tai to their interests. It is claimed, Of
course, that money is so plenty and 50
/ foods the market in this state, that
even, if the interest rate were reduced,
any amount of money could be found
waiting for investment at the rate fixed
] BY statute. If such were really the
case, isn't it reasonable to presume that
/ the rate would be forced down of itselfp
Competition between money loaners
would serve the intention of the law,
and would have the desired effect of
reducing interest, where a legislative
enactment would fail signally. If al
lowed to come into the state unbur-
dened with such restrictions as are i'm
lplied in the majority Of the bills now
before the senate, capital would, with
4 the development Of business, soon be
seeking borrowers within our state in
sufficient quantities to reduce the usury
rate to what it is in the eastern states,
but with an iron-ribbed law, compelling
money owners to loan for less than the
money will bring elsewhere, capital
i will naturally avoid US and our borrow
| ers viii be placed under the necessity
OF seeking loans under difficulties in
I stead Of having the loans seek them.

away with that body altogether.
Like other great men, Speaker Reed
will probably never have the pleasure
Of enjoying material reward for his val
liable services in behalf of unobstructed
and business-like legislation. Faithful
to the last, his only reward for the pre-
sent is a seat in a congress over which
there will rule a Democratic majority.
Standing on the minority side of the
house, he will for the next two years be
forced to behold his former opponents
reaping the benefits Of his own wise *"''
ihgs; he will be goaded by the mistaken
views of the people, as expressed in
the recent election, regarding his
course in the previous congress; and he
will be compelled to regret, to use his
own language. that slime and distance
are necessary to ripe jugdment.' But
whether or not the wisdom of Mr..
Reeds position is sufficiently recognized
during his career to permit him once
more to wrap the dignity of the speaker
ship shout him, certain it is that public
opinion will steadily change in his favor.
Time will remove what there is of poll
teal or partisan nature in the criticism
of his acts, and he will be judged more
for what he did and less from the con-
nection in which he assumed his mis-.
called czar-like behavior, Due con-
sheraton will be given to the obstruc-
ton that he had to contend with, and his
unswervings boldness, instead of being
looked upon as autoccatic, will appear
in the light of patriotic performance of
duty. Such will be Tom Reeds re.
| ward. It will be another instance of
the eventual triumph of right over mis-
representation.

That there is everything to be gained
and nothing to be lost in electing United
States senators in the same manner as
we do our congressman is fully verified
by the puerile action Of the Illinois leg
islature. Under the present method
there is double the expense to the people,
many times the opportunities for using
Doodle and not half the chance OF select
ing good men. The Review is for q
change in the the method of election,
and, when it considers the conduct of
our house of lords in the last session of
congress, is almost in favor Of doing
away with that body altogether:

While the Sleepy Eye Herald agrees
with the Review that Col. Bobleter
would make as good a candidate for
governor as any that could be elected, it
claims that he couldn't obtain the nom.
ination because he hasn't gothic stuff: :"
Now, it was to refute just such charges
as that of the Herald, that the Review
mentioned the name of Mr.. Bobleter or
any other man of his standing and char
acter as fit one for the head place on
the ticket. Once, yes twice, q man has
been nominated for governor who pos
sessed a nice portion of this world s
goods, but the Republican party has
had no reason to feel ashamed Of it's
choice. He was elected both times,
and during his term of Office has made
an excellent executive. This, however,
does not in any way alter the sentiment
heretofore expressed by the Review.
Charges will be made by the opposition
whenever there is possible room fol
them, and, like that Of the Herald. they
will be unjust and unfair. The only
way to prevent them is to remove the
cause. The nomination of man who
is above this manner of criticism will dc
it, and such is our confidence in the Re-
publican party of the state, that, in spite
of the Herald's assertions, we have nc
fears that the lie will be given to al
these untoward charges by the selection
of a man who will have nothing but hi:
