cLAusEn QUITS.

Since printing the inside pages of
the TRIBUNE, the news has arrived
that Chief Inspector of Grain A. C.
Clausen has concluded that 'sdiscre-
ton was the better part of valor,"
and has resigned. The result was of
course to be traced directly to the firm
attitude of Gov. Lind. It has never
been contended, as far as known to
the WILLMAR TRIBUNE, that Clausen
was incompetent, ignorant or a poor
Judge of wheat, but the cloud that
hung over the state grain department
was entirely due to the suspicion that
the powerful wheat and elevator rings
have exercised an undue influence with
the same, resulting in loss to the farm
ers and producers in an inverse ratio.
An honest mistake may be overlooked,
but the clever manipulation of an ex-
pert which results in loss to the farm
ers cannot be excused. If nothing
else was to be found against Mr.. Clau-
sen except that he has been in the po-
sition for long term of years and
evidently on the most cordial terms of
cooperation with the elevator COM
bines, that would constitute sufficient
grounds for change in the Office.
Now, if Gov. Lind will disregard
this action of the part of Clausen and
proceed just as he had expected to do
had the late chief inspector remained
in the office, he will earn himself the
gratitude of the farmers and shippers
OF the state, and again demonstrate
that ne is indeed the peoples COVER
nor. Becker voted to retain Clausen,
and by that act he has proven that he
is in sympathy with Clausen's work.
If there are lawful grounds upon
which the Governor can remove Gen,
Becker, he should not hesitate to do
so. The appointment of a man who
is in touch with the people to take
Gen. Becker's place, would be the
crowning act of Gov. Lind's admin
istratiOn.

Olson at the courthouse last Friday
afternoon. County Attorney Frye and
Attorney F. P. OlneY had charge of
the prosecution and Samuel Porter
was the attorney for the defense. AT
ter hearing the evidence and pleas
Justice Olson decided that inasmuch
as the women had been fined once for
the offense, he could not impose any
fine upon them. Mr.. Enge was fined
$1,000 and costs, which amounted to
$3.50. The second case against the
same parties did not come up for trial.

DID NOT WAIT TO BE- BOUNCED.
ciausen Weakened and Concluded to
Resign From His Position.

Last Monday morning Chief Grain
Inspector Clsusen handed his resigna-
tion to the railroad and warehouse
commission. In his letter of resigna-
ton he gives his reason for resigning,
as follows: ".,
''The work of this office is extreme
ly arduous and exacting, even under
the most favorable circumstances.
Without the cordial support of the
states executive I am satisfied that it
cannot be successfully administered.
His attitude during the three or four
days before, however, was such that
it becomes apparent that his resigna-
tion was merely made to save both
Becker and himself from being re-
moved. When shown Mr.. Clausen's
letter of resignation, Gov. Lind said:
"Mr. Clausen's action in resigning
may have been surprise to the com
mission, but it was not to me. I ex-
pected that it would be forthcoming.
[ have had no communication with
him since last March, but I reasoned,
and, as it proved, correctly, that a
man of his recognized ability and ex-
perience in handling grain could not
afford to continue in a position where
he was not wanted. While he has
been severely criticised, the fact re-
mains that he is regarded as one of
the ablest, if not the ablest, wheat men
in the United States to-day The posi-
tion that he has occupied is, as he
says, difficult one. No one holding
it can escape criticism. I do not ex-
pect that his successor will be able to.
The chief inspector has to answer, not
only for his own mistakes, if he makes
any, but for the errors of a large
force of subordinates, and, worst of
all, he is made the scapegoat of the
local buyers.
1t is the easiest thing in the world
for them to throw the blame on the in
spection department. when the farmers
are dissatisfied with the local grading
am hopeful, however, that with the
establishment of the board of appeal
and careful supervision of the local
buyers, the farmers will have little
cause to complain hereafter.
II might add in this connection that
the statement which appeared in the
Dispatch to the effect that I have said
that General Becker promised to vote
for Mr.. Reishus is, as might have been
expected, false. Mr.. Reishus came
to St. Paul at my request some three
weeks ago. After comforting with him
| gave him letter OF introduction to
General Becker, in which I stated
that should be glad to recommend
him to the commission for the position
OF chief inspector if the selection met
his approval. That is all that has
passed between General Becker and
myself with regard to NJ. Reishus.'
