FOOD SAVING TROUGH.

IL troughs are constructed with but one

but this Is more than lost in the waste OF

ment. It does not appear that the
members were so much concerned as
to the desirability of the measures
under consideration as they were So
licitous about the political effect of
their action.
The whole question of right or
wrong was thrown overheard. The
question before the house was not
whether the measure repeating the
law limiting the amount of convict
labor would have an evil effect upon
free labor, but how will the labor vote
stand on the question?
1t is the privilege of a great ma
jority to practice politics in legisla-
ton. But it is not decent nor honest
nor fair to the people who are not the
beneficiaries of partisan legislation.
AT no time during the present session
have the Republican members felt
constrained in decency to refrain
from debating in public what the ef-
would be on the voters. They have
brutally and BADLY given it out on
numerous occasions that the safety of
the Republican majority in the state
required the passage of the measure
under discussion. On one notable oc-
casion they passed bill which had
no merit at all except that it would
deprive the Democratic governor of
some patronage. In the discussion
yesterday the broad rights of free la
Dor were not considered; no attempt
was made to consider the status of
the cdAvict laborer. How will the
Republican party be affected by this
measure? That was the question.
Will the labor vote stand for it? That
is the way it was put. AS a conclu-
sion it was agreed by the majority
that the party could afford to take a
chance on the labor vote. The bills
were recommended for passage.
1t is plainly up to the representa-
tives Of labor to tell the house what
the position of the labor vote will be,
and we fear it will not be a crafty
ing tale.

TUESDAY, APRIL II, 1905
A BOARD OF SURGICAL SURVEY

We have not yet come to a realizing
Sense of the possibilities of that benefi-
cent institution through whose good
graces we now live, breathe and pay
taXes-the state board of control. The
kings of finance who discovered the
theory of holding companies for allied
corporations are, by comparison with
the gentlemen who are engaged in
broadening the powers of this board,
the veriest trifiers. They know moth
Ing about the game at all-or perhaps
there is some LIMIT to their courage.
Up to date there has been nothing in
vented that at all approaches in it's
comprehensive scope as a holding cor
poration this institution, which now
practically controls the business af-
fairs of Minnesota. 1t has gathered
in everything that could be pried loose
and has laid hands on some things that
are not yet loose-for instance, the legs
and arms of the states charges.
This latest evidence of the disposition
of the board to extend its paternal in
fuence to the corporal parts Of the in
mates of state institutions turned up
yesterday in the form of bill provid-
ing that the legs and arms, fingers toes
and appendices of unfortunates now
housed by the state in the institutions
and who are proud and happy, in pro-
portion to their mental capacity to in
dulge those sensations, to be under the
guardianship Of the board Of control
may be amputated or extirpated at any
time by order of the board The bill
Virtually makes the board the father
and mother, sister, brother, son, wife
Or husband, as the case may be, of any
lady or gentleman requiring surgical
attendance during his or her residence
in the happy homes which now thrive
under the benevolent eye of the board
of control
The passage of the bill is bound to
cause heartburning among those per-
sors who happen to be in possession of
their faculties and are therefore de-
prived of the privilege of living under
the watchful care of the board. If Is
so difficult for the average man or
woman who is self-supporting and free
to decide whether or not an operation
for appendicitis is desirable; there is
such sense Of responsibility bearing
on man when he orders a doctor to
cut off his leg that we fear persons
contemplating surgical operations will
try to avoid the responsibility by
breaking into some of the state insti-
tutions
Let the bill pass, though, for by such
measures We will presently arrive at
some knowledge of the capacity of the
board to expand its possibilities as a
holding corporation of the delegated
rights OF the citizen.

objects to Fees From Candidates at PrI-
mary or Other Elections

To the Editor of The Globe:
At this date l suppose our legislature
is closing its work. 1 have not followed
1t close enough to know if it has even
amended our primary election laws but
l do know that they should be amended
by striking out now and forever any and
all charges for candidates places on either
ticket at any election primary or general
make this sweeping demand as strong
as our language can conceive, because
the money bar raised by the rich and
dominant and arrogant party here has de-
prlVed a host of worthy citizens of eXer-
cisinS their God given, blood bought JEFF
fersonian rights by taxing them Gp with
expenses which should be borne by the
entire cOmmunity-taXes too that
amount to absolute prohibition when n
weak party has no hope of winning. L
have known of one man in a county VOt-
ing his choice alone. Now. can any man
in our free republic dare assert that such
denied that privilege Nor under the con-
stitution dare YOU draw a line between the
candidates of different parties. no matter
how many by saying this party'S candi-
date shall be printed on our official ballot.
but this other candidates name shall not
appear because he or his party has not
paid US the unconstitutional, abOminable
tax which our good and gracious &. o. p.
has decreed as line of caste between us
whom God has intrusted with the rule Of
state and nation, and all those other
pennileSS parties who presume still to
confront us before the people? By the
unerring rule of our constitution and com
mon law, construed by the light of the
very spirit and genius of our hereditary
practices all elections should be absO-
lutely free as to parties and individuals.
Not alone In future, but this legislature
should order even now by statute that all
the money paid in by candidates under
the Australian system, general or pri-
mary. be refunded when possible.
Why do 1 ask it? Because L think the
supreme court of the United States would
so decree if appealed to. Let the legisla-
ture demand that no man may be cam
didate before a primary election for any
office from governor down unless he pre-
sent petition for it signed by at least
% per cent of the number of votes his
party cast at the last general election
of the district; all necessary blanks to
be furnished at public expense and voters
to declare themselves as friendly" to
the candidate; but leave it to the option
of the signer to name his party or not.
BY some such law we could save a lot Of
space on official ballots. and always have
good clean men for public office
