law q practical application, says
that the peculiar characteristic OF
agricultural products and farm pro-
duce and the ability TO peculiar
abuses resulting from a sale thereof
on commission, are such as to sug-
gest the practical necessity for dis
8tinctive legislation on the subject
different from what would be exped-
lent or necessary in the case OF other
property sold on commission, and
to Justify the legislature, in it's dis
cretion, in putting those who sell
them on commission in a class by
themselves.
The law required men handling
grain and produce on commission to
take out licenses from the railroad
and warehouse commission, and to
give bond to be fixed by the com
mission according to the amount Of
business the commission house is
doing, and herein lies the security to
farmers in making their consign-
ment.
And just here we desire to re-
mark that the present supreme court
has made more practical and bene-
fetal decision in protecting the
rights OF the people in defining and
prescribing the powers and limits OF
corporations, and in sustaining
needed and serviceable laws like the
one just approved, than by any
previous organizat tion OF that trib-
unal. Sank Rapids Sentinel.

! hope you will give me space for
the folio wing lines in your esteemed
paper.
When a case of universal interest
is promoted or worked for. you may
be sure that there is some little
souls who try with might and main
to tear down what good work
others have built up. This is some
thing that occurs daily, andTappears
not least now in the congressional
campaign even ID our cotnty.
We have a few disappointed . Office
seekers from Stephen who have
banded themselves together to work
against Mr.. Grindeland's nomina-
Uion. giving aid and comfort to the
enemy. This Important! set con
sists OF an ex-sheriff, a man who
failed to get the appointment as
postmaster at Stephen four years
ago, and another gentleman who for
a number Of years has persistentIy
sought to become the political boss
OF Marshall county. These gentle
men have always shown an 8 over
weening desire for, public" office but
have as consistently been unsuccess-
full because the voters OF this county
.haye ever looked upon them with
peculiar disfavOr.
The case simply told is that they
are seeking something for themselves
which they cannot get, they think,
unless they work against Mr.. Grinde-
land and howl for Stevenson as
the man in the lead and the man
we must vote for in order not to
throw our votes away" Steenerson
it is claimed, is exceedingly liberal in
campaign promises, especially in his
own city, where, through these
means, he hopes to "get them into
line" If Steenerson is elected then,
will the slippery -tongued and disap-
pointed postmaster get into promi-
nence by an appointment to fat
office while the uncrownedi boss
hopes to become the proprietor Of
the Marshall County Official Pie
Counter. Now, when these gentle
men, who drive from house to house..
come to you and seek to work
against Grindeland by saying "he
isn't in it, you will do well to re-
member thar they are working more
for themselves than for Steenerson
and that their real aim is ia make
