GOVERNOR SEEKS TO
BE RID OF A PLUM
Favors Having Supreme Court
Justices Appoint the State
Librarian

The spectacle of the governor asking
the legislature to give the people a
chance to take one of his appointive
of1ces from him and give the appoint
ment TO the supreme court is new in
Minnesota. A bill introduced yester-
day in the house by A ]. Rockne and
in the senate by r. B. Brewer provides
for constitutional amendment, sub
mitting to the vote of the people the
proposition to take from the list Of
offices appointed by the governor that
of state librarian. The bills were in
troduced by the consent of Gov. john
son and he is in hearty sympathy with
their purpose.
Should the constitutional amendment
carry, legislation will be had to make
the state librarian appointive by the
supreme court. Gov. Johnson said yes
terday:
"The bills have my support. When
consulted with the supreme court rel
ative to the appointment as state Ii
brarian of John E. King, the incumbent,
l suggested to the members of the
court that the appointing power should
be vested in that body. They are in
charge Of the law library and it is prop
erly an adjunct of the supreme court.
One Of the justices is curator of the
library and the assistant cannot be re-
moved without the approval of the
court. If a law is enacted giving to
the supreme court the appointment of
the librarian he will not be removable
except for cause and the librarian will
not be changed with every turn of the
wheel Of political parties"
In the house a bill introduced by
consent of the governor would divest
the board of control Of jurisdiction of
the state institutions at Faribault. A
bill by Senator Buck is pending in the
senate. 1t follows as a sequence to
the success in the legislature of the
Perley bill.
The Buck bill was recommended to
pass by the senate in committee Of the
whole. Senator John Schultz of Mar
shall, moved that it be indefinitely
postponed, but his motion was sup
ported by few of the senators. 1t is
expected that the house will not take
kindly to the bill when 1t comes up for
passage in that body.

HENNEPIN OUTNUMBERS
RAMSEY'S CONFEREES
Minneapolis Has Twice as Many Members
as This County

The fact that Hennepin county has four
of the twelve conferees appointed by the
senate and house to endeavor to agree to
the senate amendments to the revised
code has attracted considerable attention
in the legislature. Three of the six house
members on the committee are residents
of Minneapolis, while st. Paul, with it's
large business interests, has but two.
Senator Hiler H. Horton and Representa-.
tive James r. Hickey are the sole repre-
sentatives of st. Paul on the committee
of twelve. Ramsey county has just half
the representation on the committee given
Hennepin.
Lieut. Gov. Jones, presiding officer of
the senate, yesterday announced the SEN
ate'S confereeS on the revised code i'm

cation from the house that that body had

winters, slept on balsam boughs, with

Mrs. Durant was prevented by i'll
ness from enjoying the dual anniver-
sary. She is quite sick at the Mer-
chants hotel, where, with her husband,
she has spent the winter.

Citizens Are Showing Interest in tho
Coming Musical Event

The preliminary organization work
for the great sangerfest to be held in
this city next year is progressing rap
idly and the executive officers of the
local committee report that they are
meeting with an interest upon every
hand that shows st. Paul people to
be awakening to the magnitude Of the
proposition which lies before them.
Some time ago letters were address,
ed to the various societies of the city
and to number of business firms ask
ing that two persons from their respec-
tive memberships be recommended for
service upon the subcommittee. The
ready responses which have greeted
these letters has been a source of great
encouragement to those who are con-
neeted with the primary organization
of the affair. Everything is working
out smoothly towards what promises
to be the greatest sangerfest ever held
in the northwest.
