t, cachery of greater or less number
Of constituents Politics may seem
sin. pie to one who believes it to be the
mere registering of each others opin-
ion, and that each and every vote is Il

ii is a confused clash Of schemes.
among those who have hundred diff
felent interests. pulling Of thou

This motley crowd is established in

mike our laws" and keep intact the
''ir Stitutions' Of our country. Once
there, they are the prey of every cor.
poration, every millionaire with 4
'rested right to protect, every mid.
die class man who wants a privilege,
every scheme with a job in sight.
Bills, bills, bills. are being heaped
up and running over and threaten to
sw3nnp the legislature; bills on every
conceivable subject and they pass
them without hardly a thought. Why,
during the one afternoon [ was there
forty-two bills passed the senate.
IF laws would make us happy and good,
here in Minnesota. 1t really seemed
impossible for them to go straight for
ward and do a decent piece of business.
They do not repeal a law and make
the statute book as clean as before it
was passed. They qualify, and amend,
and regulate and elaborate, and the
statutes go on piling up, contradicting
each other, becoming more compl-
Gated and confused until no man living
understands them and anything can be
proven by them as it can by the Bible.
And how it does cost to keep up our
constitutions '-whatever they might
DC. I as an American of two hundred
years standing do not know-and peo-
p!. believe we must have them. Old
laws and institutions are the things
which make it necessary that the huge.
complex, expensive governmental ma
chine should be ever grinding out
laws.
