The legislature of Delaware has ad,
iourned and failed to elect a United
States senator for either the long or the
short term Delaware has had but one
member in the senate since 1895, as a
result of the deadlock in the legisla-
ture and now will not be represented
at all. But this is far better than tc
be disgraced by giving Gas Ad
dicks a seat. 1t is to be regretted that
the regular Republicans and Democrats
could not have reached some agree
ment by which they could have elected
both senators as such a combination
would have had the power. A Demo
crat like former Senator Salisbury
would have been preferable to the stu
alton as it now is, or to Addicks. Be
sides it would have meant a signal de-
feat of Addick's schemes. The Della
ware result is another strong argument
in favor of the election of senators by
direct vote of the people.

THE SENATE'S BAD MOVE.

The state senate has passed the oil
inspector salary bill but amended it so
that it will not take effect until Janu-
airy, 1908. The proposal of Senator
Miller that it go into effect April 30th
next, ought to have been adopted, but
the senate would not agree to this by
a vote of 80 to "a. The fact is the SEN
ate wanted to kill the bill, but public
sentiment is such that they hardly
dared do this in the face of the fact
that new senate is to be elected at
the next general election. But this
amendment was tackled on in hopes
that the house will not agree to it and
SO let the bill die in conference The
amendment is disgrace to the BILL
and ought never to have been adopted.
The Argument put forth by some of
the opponents of the measure, that
they never heard of a move reducing
an officers salary in the middle of his
term had no application to the meas
ure in question at all, as the oil in
spector is not working on salary but
is paid in fees. This bill simply
changes his compensation to salary
most liberal one at that, for services
obliged to be rendered. Several hun
dred dollars would be entirely ade-
quate. AS we have said the hope of
the senators who oppose the measure
is, that it will not be agreed to by the
house. But in this the house ought to
fool them. If nothing better can be
obtained then the bill, unsatisfactory
as it is should be passed and become
law. The question should not be
passed over to another legislature,
even though it is not what is wanted
at the present time

THE PRIMARY ELECTION LAW.

There is great danger that the pri-
mary election law will not be extended
over the state The demand for it is
almost universal in the press of the
state and among the people, but there
are a class of politicians who are
against it, and who have been pulling
every string possible to secure the de-
feat of the measure in the legislature.
There has been feeling on the part OF
the public that as the demand there
for was so strong, that the measure
would be passed without question and
people have rested content under that
feeling. But if the general public
wishes the law, it is time to arouse it
self from the quiet attitude it has as
sumed and make known it's desires to
the legislature in unmistakable terms
Since the Australian ballot system
was adopted there has been no such
unanimity on the part of the public for
any measure as there is for this, and
neither has there been such an i'm
portant measure put before the people
in connection with our election sys-
tenn as this.
The objection that is put forth
against this measure is that it is an
experiment, and ought to be tried
longer in Minneapolis before it is
spread over the state. The real objec-
tion to the measure is that It's adop-
tion would deprive many ward heller
and self constituted leader of the priv
ilege of running things to suit them
selves and fixing up delegates for con-
ventions in the interest of this one or
that one, and transfer the power to the
people direct where it properly be-
longs. The objection is put forth in a
very plausible manner, and it is said
that it is likely to win in the legisla-
ture. unless there is an uprising on
the part of the people to an extent that
can not be.mistaken by their represen-
atives at st. Paul The best expert
ment that can be given the law is to
spread it out over the state so that
the people can try it for themselves.
Then after thorough trial if it does not
meet expectations it can be changed,
modified or repealed. 1t is only through
such trial that the people will be
satisfied. Everywhere they object to
the control of the primaries by few
and demand that they be given the
chance to choose for themselves those
whom they desire to vote on election
day. Agitation to secure this should
go forward at once. 1t would be a
good thing if every person who favors
the extending of the direct primary
system would write a personal note. to
that effect to their representatives. and
senator, requesting that they vote for
such measure and then watch the
legislative proceedings and see whether
or not they do.

Several days ago it was reported
that the differences which had existed
between the reapportionment COM
mittee and two or three members who
were dissatisfied over the arrangement
of the second district and the cutting
off several counties along the northern
border of the present district, AMI at
taching them to the new seventh. By
the terms of this arrangement it was
said that Redwood county was to be
put back into the second district, and
Waseca set back into the first But it
when the matter came up in the house
Friday morning the proposed amend
ment was lost on tie vote, the bill as
framed by the subcommittee, and
agreed to by the whole committee, go
ing through. The districts according
to the bill passed by the house, are
the same as shown in the map pub
| lished in the Free Press at the time
the bill was agreed TO by the COM
mittee. Under its provisions the Sec
ond district will be comprised of the
following twelve counties: Blue
Earth, Brown, Cottonwood, Faribault,
Jackson, Martin, Murray, Mobiles,
Pipestone, Rock, Waseca and W&ton-
wan. This bill was taken up in the
senate Friday afternoon and after the
adoption of an amendment setting
Redwood county back into the second
district, and Waseca back into the
first, the bill was passed. The move
to divide Hennepin county and place
the east portion in the Duluth district
was defeated. 1t is thought the house
will recede from its position and &C
cept the senate amendment.

The Democrats ever have their faces
turned toward the past In commenting
upon the appropriations of the con-
gress just adjourned, they contrast
them with those of the oath congress
before the war with Spain. They ig-
more entirely the change in the condi-
tions of the country since, which has
caused natural increase in expendi,
lures. We do not presume that the
congress just adjourned was much il
any worse than any of its predecessors
in passing appropriations that were
not OF meritorious nature. The fact
that the river and harbor bill with its
many jobs was killed ought to be
greatly in favor of the late congress.

AMONG STATE EXCHANGES.

If the board of control bill passes
the LIE Sueur News wonders if the
three appointees will be made from
st. Paul.
Frank Day gives it out as his solemn
belief that if Rosing gets control of
the Globe the subscription lists of
several twin city dailies will go
glimmering.
The Owatonna Journal thinks the
action of the state legislature, if it
should cut short its session twenty days
will be remembered to its credit, as
it will not only result in considerable
saving in legislative expenses, but it
will prevent numbering the statute
book with ineffective laws.
There is much cant in many of the
panegyrics of young men, remarks
the Rock County Herald, and it may
we'll be doubted that the present age
offers them greater or less opportunity
than other periods have offered or that
they have greater part in the world s
work, but it is undeniable that young
men in sharing the improved condi.
tions of life and the chances of ad,
vancement which are open to all quail
fed people are better situated thar
ever before.
The unconstitutionality cry that il
regularly brought against certain i'm
portant measures I'D for legislation dis
gusts the Litchfield Review, and it re-
marks that it is becoming quite g
bore, and that the public is beginning
to inquire by what right Legislative
body has to deal with that argument,
when it was designated that another
department, the judicial, should decide
that question. When the constitu
tionality or the unconstitutionality Of
a proposed act is a much mooted ques-
ton as it was in the case of the gross
earnings bill two years ago, it is better
the measure being one demanded by
the people, for the Legislature to vote,
aye and to leave the decision to the
courts.
The Little Falls Transcript believes
when it is necessary to revise the
tariff, as it is occasionally, the people
will trust it to the Republican party,
and thinks the many suggestions now
made by leading Republicans show
that the party does not consider any
schedule az sacred. The party does be-
lieve in fair protection to American
laboringmen, and will not be excited
into jeopardizing the workingmen or
or capitalists interested in any great
industry.
The Alexandria Post-News does not
see wherein the proposed board of con
troll will be any more expensive SO fal
as its own cost is concerned than are
the present multiplicity of boards the
members of which, though they serve
| without salary are so many and Sc
widely scattered that the expense O
meetings and other incidentals amount
to enough to practically support a cen
trail board which could devote all of it,
time to the care of the state institu
lions. There can be no question, i
says. but that the three men would
soon be experts in the details of thu
management, needs and economical
running of such institutions, while tn,
present boards cannot in years ge
more than superficial knowledge ant
must trust to the local force.

Age.

mas. Johnson Passes Away at a Ripe
Age.
Chas. johnson died at his home, 422
North Second street, Sunday morn
ing, aged seventyfour years. His
death was due to old age and
was FASTENED by an attack of the
grip. His wife, one son and six daugh-
ters survive him, the son and daugh-
tiers being Chas S. johnson and Mrs
Danielson of Winthrop, Mrs. Seppman
and Mrs. Anderson of Judson, Mrs.
Jones of Lake Crystal, and Misses
Minnie and Annie Johnson of this
city. Mrs Danielson is ill and Miss
Annie johnson is with her at Win
throp. Neither will be able to attend
the funeral, but the others will be
present.
Mr.. johnson was one of the substan-
tial farmers of Judson for many years,
but spent some of his time during his
latter years at his residence in this
city. He was popular with all who
knew him and raised an estimable
family. He more than rounded out
the allotted time of man, and his life
was an industrious one, filed with
labor but crowned with success.
The funeral will occur from the
Methodist church at one clock We'd
nesday afternoon, and the remains
will be inferred at Minneopa cemetery.
Mrs. Frank winners lost her six
months old child Sunday night, at her
home at the corner of Sixth and Main
streets. The funeral occurred at
two o'clock Tuesday afternoon from
