Ringdal. representing the Populists
and the Seventh district, becomes rail-
road commissioner. He is tolerably
we'll known in legislative circles, where
he achieved the reputation of being a
conscientious and honest public serv-
ant. Responsibility in his case will
tend to conservatism, and his sense
of justice and fair play will do the
rest
For dairy commissioner another
we'll known Populist. Maj. Bowler, has
been selected to carry out the recon-
mendations of the governor affecting
the dairy interests. There is no reason
why these should not now be fully con-
served.
McHaie, of Minneapolis, is a Demo-
crat and a man of recognized worth
in labor circles. Since Nash, of st.
Paul, was for geographical reasons,
out of the question, no better selection
could have beer made than that of
the Hennepin county man. 1t will, we
predict, give complete satisfaction to
the labor organizations of the state.
Another Democrat, Gen. Pope was

But without descending into the de-
tails of the discussion. we wish the at
tention of the new woman might be
called to the fact that her attitude in
the matter Is shockingly Illogical.
Since she maintains that she is every
bit as free and untrammeled as her
brother. and would not for a moment
think that she had the right to dictate
to him in such matters. she should
not infer by discussing the subject.
that he has right to prescribe pro-
prieties of dress to her.
To the representative men of New
York we would say that If they could
only persuade themselves that an
ankle displayed beneath a short skirt
is no worse than an ankle plus six
inches of stocking. peering forth from
a medley of bedrabbled petticoats.
they would discover a sudden but
marked decrease in their doctors bills.
as we'll as their dressmakers' bills.
Furthermore the added neatness and
wholesomeness about the feminine
garments would more than compensate
for the violence done to masculine
sensibilities.

Lind and Legislation.

Gov. Lind delivered his first message to a
Joint session of the state legislature Wednes

sentative and statesmanlike document AS

ument and should be read by every citizen

The legislature Is in session, Gov. Lind

friends in positions dipped his pen in the
state house ink well, and Is ready to veto.
For the first time in the history of the state
we have governor without a political party

jump into the king row on the senator ques-
ton. Well, wait and see.-Le Sueur News.
In the light of recent events a big feather
would be added to Gov. Lind's cap if he
would order an investigation of our state
insane asylum, such as would astonish even
the Oldest Inhabitants. 1t is suggested here
that if any such investigation be ordered
it be conducted strictly non partisan lines.

John Lnds inaugural address is peculiar
ly interesting one. being the first from a
Democratic governor for two score years.
The governor deals with all the questions in
an earnest manner.-Austin Herald.
The message of Coy. Lind was looked for
ward to with much interest, partly because
it was the first for many years other than
from Republican governor. It 1s not the
radical document that was expected by many,
who thought that the governor would tell
of many things in the state sadly needing
correction and suggest means of reform. On
the other hand, it is conservative from start
to finish and discusses matters in clear
and interesting fashion.-Winona Independent.
The legislature started in with Swing
that indicates some very bad legislation may
be expected from the jobbery SO freely in
obliged in. Trades were made that settled
the speakership three weeks before the legis-
lature met. and the other positions, from
pages up to chief officer. were traded in a
manner that would shame a ward politician.
The Republican party cannot stand this
wholesale jobbery. and it is time to call a
halt.-Taylor's Falls Journal.
John Lind is now governor of Minnesota.
The Free Press opposed Mr.. Lind for gov
ernor because the fusion ideas he represented
were not III accord with the political princi-
pies that it believes in. But that is neither
here nor there. Mr.. Lind is now governor
by the will of the people. and the Free Press
wishes him a most successful and prosperous
admiristr alton, and hopes that during the
two years he occupies the executive chair
the interests Of the state will be ma
terially advanced.-Mankato Free Press.

An Election OdditY.

Mr.. PingIee, of Michigan, and Mr..
Burrows, also of the Wolverine state,
have been Republicans, who, in their
little nest, did not agree. Gov. Pingree
made no secret of the fact that, when
he sharpened up his political knife, he
had Mr.. Burrows clearly in mind, and
the senator, on his part, did not try
to conceal the fact that he regarded
the scalp of the potato patch states
man as particularly tempting The issue
in Michigan at the last general election
was the Pingree-B Burrows controversy
From Battle Creek to the Shanty ISL
ands the fight was fiercely waged Mr..
Pingree was elected governor by an
overwhelming majority, and now a
legislature elected at the same time
and by the same people has, by the
caucus of its dominant party, unani-
mously selected Mr.. Burrows for an
other siX-year term in the senate.
There is evidently a moral of some
sort in this election oddly. The Re-
publicans of Michigan did not want
both Mr.. Pingree and Mr.. Burrows
The two presented political ideas so
conflicting that they could not be rec
onciled, even in the popular mind.
Mr.. Pingree's election was a rout for
the Burrows forces. Mr. Burrows Sc
lection is pointed rebuke to the Pin
gree faction. Either the people did
not express their will when they
named a governor, or the peoples
servants played them false when Mr..
Burrows was sent back to the senate.
The result in Michigan is not a con-
elusive argument in favor of the cleo
ton of senators by the people, per-
haps, for there remains the other al
tentative suggested, but the outcome
does show, as a matter of fact, that
under the present system, the people
may be given their will in one direction
and foiled in another Where the
rules of any game from ten pins to
politics are well adjusted, there cannot
be decided victory for both sides
and at the same time a draw. That is
precisely what has occurred in Michi-
gan. A revision of the rules is evidently
in order

Future of Our Autocrats.

The people of the United States have
never had more than a few eX-presi-
dents on their hands at any time. yet
the problem of their disposition has
caused almost endless discussion. 1t
seems never to have occurred to i'm
perialistic statesmen that in sowing q
crop of captains general. naval gov
errors and the like they are preparing
n harvest for which no granary has
been provided. If one or two express
idents were a bother. what Of q mixed
lot of dictators home from governing
in foreign climes? In Europe they
have a place for such dignitaries
When their term Of service is at an
end. A few extra letters are attached
to their names. and they are given
few more crosses and a place at court.
Even then it is hard to keep them
from mixing in affairs Of state IN
the United States there will be nothing
for them to do but look pretty. IL
they clutter up courts where there is
special provision for them. what will
be the future Of military governors of
the United States? The problem is
logical development of expansion. and
tlement this little detail might as we'll
be included. The Indian territory offers
the only solution that is apparent. In
dams will stand a lot of governing,
and they like gold lace The five
tribes could be divided into bands Of
convenient size. and, when captain
general or a naval governor Is de-
posed in the interests of party politics
to make way for some one equally de-
serving. he could be assigned to g a
township in the territory and allowed
to play the vice regal game to his
hearts content. A few palaces and
detachments Of the garde du corps
would improve the looks Of the Indian
country. and the system would keep
the ex-autocrats out of mischief. 1t
is plain that after an officer has been
the prodical king of Guam. lloilo or
Santiago he cannot be expected to
come back and be happy and sat1sned
without a few natives to boss. The
Indians offer the only feasible solu-
ton. 1t will be a little hard on the
painted braves. but they need civil
ling. and practice gained IN the
Orient may prove valuable.

fropriety VS.. Short Skirts.

Some of the New York papers are
devoting a good deal of space these
days to communications from both
men and women relative to the pro-
priety-or lack of it-of the short or
rainy day skirt. We can pardon the
men for giving vent to their perturb-
ed feelings through the newspapers.
but we cannot understand how any
woman who is new enough and indie
pendent enough to don a short skirt on
rainy day can find it compatible
with her new-won prerogatives even to
discuss the subject of her wearing ap-
parel with the lately vanquished lord
of creation.
