THE AUDITORS LOBBY.

Some of the county auditors
throughout the State met in St. Paul
last week, and after days session,
decided to again attempt to have the
legislature extend the term of coun-
ty auditors from two to four years.
These officials go so far as to ask
the legislature to not only pass a
bill making the terms of county
auditors four years, but also ask the
legislature to extend their present
terms of two years, for which they
were elected by the people, to the
-. a!
term of four years.
The proposition of these officials
has its greatest wrong in the last
clause. The people elected them
for two years, and yet they attempt
to override the direct vote of the
people by asking the senator's and

WANTS MERRIAM FORGIVEN.

Saturdays Minneapolis Journal
editorially urges Senator Cushman
X. Davis to relent in his opposition
to Ex-Gov. VIM. r. Merriam, so
that the latter may be given a gov
eminent position. It urges that Mr..
Merriam selection will be a per-
sonal one of the President, an honor
to Minnesota, and that if it is the
superintendent of the census, the
appointment will be credit to the
place. The Journal has forgotten
the celebrated purchase deal of Mr..
Merriam, whereby A. R. McGill
was defeated for denomination for
governor nomination which he
had every right to ask for and ex-.

That is a good proposition Of the
representative and senator from
this district, seeking to increase the
appropriation of the rural school
encouragement fund from $40, 900 to
$4,000 annually, whereby each
rural school district, in return for
complying,;. with certain advanced
requirements, is to receive $50 State
aid. The'sappropriation will help
many rural schools all over the
State, and with our present county
superintendent, we are fully con-
vinced that assgood proportion Of the
increased appropriation will come
to Redwood county as reward of
merit for advanced schools.

asylum, if St. Paul and Minneapolis
are to increase their "grafts'' for
the capitol and the university, and
if the drainage and other PROPOSE
tons are to be included in the ON
nibus appropriation bill, the COM
bine that carries the bills through
will give Gov. Lind chance for a
veto and political thunder, and we
believe that there are enough indie
pendent Republicans in the legisla-
ture to see that the omnibus bill
does not pass over the executive We
to. All of these propositions will
necessarily carry enough members
to make successful combine, but
when these combine senators and
representative return to their peo-
pie for an approval of their acts
they are likely to meet with just
rebuke.

pect to secure. It has forgotten
Merriam deal of six years ago
when Cushman X. Davis, the party s
express nominee for United States
senator, came within one vote Of
being defeated by the secret in
trigues of VIM R. Merriam. It
seems to forget that w. R. Merriam
has done more than any one man to
disrupt the Republican organization
of Minnesota, for with Merriam
rule, there entered new rule into
State politics-that of "boodle'
rule, and the termination of that
rule at the last Republican State
convention led to the defeat of the
Republican candidate for governor.
And the Journal, with it's purity of
mind and conscience, asks Senator
Davis to condone these offenses, and
make w. R. Merriam a striking fig
ure again in Minnesota politics.

A gentleman named StOckwell,
purporting to represent a Minneapo-
lis district in the senate, has been
breezing more or less about that
body since it's organization on Jan.
Sd last. He has been in previous
legislatures, and with each session,
the whirring wheels seem tol
multiply in the large vacancy in his
upper story. So.terrific has become
this whirring, and so numerous have
become the wheels, that his Popu-
list and Democratic colleagues of
the senate have appointed COM
mittee to bring about removal of
the nuisance. Just what this COM
mittee proposes to substitute for the
machinery is question, but it will
be an awful shame to leave vacant
SO much of the upper story of this
peculiar Minneapolis production.

representatives in the legislature,
to set aside the will of the people,
as expressed at the ballot box, and
make them a present of two more
years of Office.
But why make the terms of county
auditors any longer than that of any
other official? If county auditor
makes an efficient public servant he
has but to go before the people for a
second term of two years, and in al
most every case will he find an en-
dorsement. Too many times is this
tenure made TO extend over period
of six and eight years, even longer,
by considerate people, who like to
leave well enough alone.
If the county auditor is to have a
four years tenure, why not give it
to the sheriff, the treasurer, the
probate Judge, register of deeds,
county attorney, superintendent of
schools and all the other officials
elected by the people and thus make
an election of county officers occur
only once in four years. We don't
believe that the people of Minnesota
would favor such sweeping clause
ON the other hand, they would
probably oppose it, and hence they
will be opposed to four years
term for the auditors. A law max
ing the clerks of court elected every
two years would be looked upon
with more general favor than this
proposition of the auditors, who will
have a lobby at work attempting to
defeat the express will OF the people.
Mr.. Larson of this county will be
one of the strongest opponents of
the four years term, on the floor of
the house, and we believe that Sen
ator Somerville entertains like
views, and is likely to be as per-
sistent in opposing the measure in
the Senate as is Mr.. Larson in the

ONE WORD MORE.

The GAZETTE desires to say one
word to it's brother publishers, who
secure their patent insides from
the Northwestern Newspaper Union,
which concern claims that it has a
grip on these papers, so far as Sc
curing their orders for law supple
ments is concerned.
The Union charged them the
same outrageous rates as it did
other publishers two years ago.
This year, they would never have
received a so per cent. discount
from this concern had it not been
for the action of the Minnesota Ed
itors and Publishers Association
and the St. Paul Dispatch, which,
foreseeing that the Union was about
to make another steal, have jointly
entered into an arrangement to save
Minnesota publishers many dollars.
The duty of these publishers is
plain. They should order from the
Publishers Association committee,
even if they have to cancel orders
already filed. If the Union propos-
es to force them by reason OF
their being backward in paying
for patents, we advise them to pay
up and get their patents some
where else. When they suggest
this, the Union will be glad to can
eel their order just to hold their
patent inside business.
Get together, boys.
