NEEDED LEGISLATION.

The next Minnesota legislature
will have a great deal of work to
accomplish along the line of temper
ance reform in this state. When
the code was enacted by the last
session several glazing anti-temper-
ance provisions crept in by stealth,
the most important of which was the
section providing that in order to
punish a liquor dealer for selling
liquor to a minor the parents of the
minor must first have notified the
liquor dealer. 1t ought to take the
legislature about two weeks from
the date when it is called to order
to correct this glaring evil.
The bill to permit local option by
counties will be introduced shortly
after the legislature convenes.
There is general demand for this
bill all oyer Minnesota and the cleo
ton of several prohibition members
to the legislature means that both
the 1907 senate and house, before
they adjourn sine die, must pass a
bill giving the people of each county
the right to vote on the question as
to whether liquor shall, or shall not,
be sold within the border of the
county. 1t may be advisable to in
sist upon a 55 or 60 per cent. vote in
order to carry county option, but a
bill along these lines must pass.

hearing liquor dealers say that thew

CONGRATULATIONS.

As one of the consistent Republi-
can newspapers of the state THE
GAZETTE extends its congratulations
to Gov. johnson on his reelection to
the highest position within the gift
of the people of the state.
Gov. Johnson's victory was a per-
sonal victory. Thousands of Repub-
licanS all over Minnesota, believing
that the governor had made good, :"
and believing in his personal quail
fications as a mixer" with the
people, deserted the head of their
ticket, voted for the governor, and
then returned to the party of their
allegiance to vote for the balance of
the ticket.
His majority is larger than has
ever been accorded a candidate for
governor in the state. He secured
that majority in fight in which he
was absolutely the sole fighter on
his side, while on the other hand
was arrayed all of the strong men
of the Republican party. All of the
large daily newspapers, with the
exception of one at Duluth, and one
each in St. Paul and Minneapolis,
were against him, and yet so strong
" had he worked himself into the
confidence of the people that he
