JONES' CHANCE TO
BE 4 ROOSEVELT r
RegieaU of the Circumstances and COw0iti0t,S
Which tile Neay Mayor of Minneapolis WTU
Meet Exceptionally Good ORporfu-
nifty for Him TO Be Mayor:

David P. Zones has been elected mayor
of Minneapolis. Mr.. Jones is a con-
scientious man and it will be his de-
sire to do all he~can in. the two years
Are there many things he can do that
his predecessors have forgotten or
neglected? Looking at the cold letter
Of the law he is cramped by the same
bonds as the other mayors. He is prac-
ticalIv chief of police. He is member
of the school, park and library boards.
He will assist in making the next tax
levy and he will have the naming OF
city physician and a superintendent OF
the workhouse It is not much when
one considers that all our local politics
somehow circulate about the choice OF
a mayor. One would believe from the
fuss that is made in the campaign that
we were choosing czar rather than a
good natured gentleman who will make
few, appointments and hurl addresses
of welcome at all cOmers.
But whatever the law there is always
q personal element in the conduct OF
+ an office that makes for good or ill.
Mayor j ones has an oppOrtunityto make
his vigorous, clean and wholesome per-
sonality felt in the coming regime. That
counts for something. The personal
factor in an executive counts for a
great deal. Take for example the
tutional lawyers have occupied the
White House and during their incum-
bency the power of congress fOurlshed
and grew, particularly that of the SEN
ate. But when man who does things
gets into the presidency different at
mosphere Immediately pervades the
capital. Mr.. Roosevelt g administra-
tion has already been characterized by
executive acts which have made his
name heard around the world. He has
put his hand on problems and solved
many, while others he has put in the
way Of solution. The Panama canal
the merger, the rate question, the for
eign policy, these. and many other
things have been taken hold of with
vigor from the executive side and the
country has approved of the president
as much for the courage with which he
has attacked grievances as for the actu-
al results he has obtained.
How is it with the mayor Of Mime.
apolis7 Truth to tell, it is very differ
ent. He does not lead the council, which
corresponds to. the congress. He does
not formulate legislation. He does not
control nor guide the municipal "ship
of state.' He is a member Of the crew,
but he is not captain, helmsman nor
even chief cook.
Of course there are one or two faults
in a an 1b anaogX between the ma
the mayor does not have the patronage
at his disposal that the president has
Patronage does a great deal to make
congressman respect the wishes and
fear the displeasure Of the president
Nor has the mayor the social position
of the president. The White House is
not only a great political office, but it
is a great social center. Everybody
who can get in goes to see the presi
dent. Nobody goes to see the mayor
