Governor JOHNSON has always been
opposed to the drainage Of state
lands and is today. He is forced by
political emergency to assume that
he now favors drainage, but prior to
his election as governor he spoke and
wrote against drainage in Southern
Minnesota. He ignored the fact that
the drainage work is not carried on
at the expense Of the general tax
payer. He ignored the fact that the
lands thus reclaimed are brought in
to tho market at high price and
that more settlers are invited to come
to Minnesota to till them, he ignored
the fact that one half of the profits
from the sale of these lands goes to
the common school fund and the
other half to the charitable institu-
tons of the state. 1t is only his
illimitable cheek which causes him
now to claim to be friend of drain
age. In fact he has not proven him
self friend of any important public
interest while he has been governor
He was violently hostile TO the pas
sage of the board of control bill while
a member of the Legislature and pub
liclv boosted that it did not have as
strong an opponent inthe legislature
as himself, He cited to prove this
State Auditor Dunn, who was a
warm supporter of the measure and
Senator Snyder who fatbered the bill
and he called upon them to testify
that he was its consistent and persis-
tent opponent. Every tax payer in
the state, regardless of his politics
knows that the esta blishment of the
Board OF Control which regulates the
vast expenditures required to support
our public institutions is one of the
best measures ever placed upon the
statute books of Minnesota and Gov
ernor Johnson's opposition to this
measure is simply in accord with his
record, privately and publicly of op-
posing every measure which is of
especial interest to the people of the
state.

The two gubernatorial candi-
dates, Mr. Cole and Mr. johnson,
hold decidedly opposite views con-
corning the needs of additional rail-
road legislation. Mr.. Cole thinks
that existing railroad laws ought to
be supplemented with other. laws,
providing for a Jail sentence for
granting rebates to shippers and
authorizing the railroad: commits
sion to investigate and ascertain
the cost of the railroads, 80 as to
be able to make rates based upon
the money actually invested,
while Gov. johnson insists the
present laws are efficient and suffi-
Gent. These two views have
provoked considerable discussion on
both sides, with the ''prepondsr-
ance Of evidence" lined up against
the democratic contention. But
now comes Ex-Gov. John Lind and,
with all his prestige, ability and ell
oquence, backs up tho governors
attitude IN a long column commun-
ication to the Minneapolis Journal,
in which he attempts to prove that
our railroad laws are good enough
and would not be constitutional
should the legislature amend the
same in accordance with Mr.. Coles
suggestion.
1t is the old story, unconstitution-
ality. 1t is used against all propos-
ed reforms when public sentiment
get too strong in favor of them ::and
a sort Of q bulwark from behind
which corporation attorneys defend
their untenable positions. II the
constitution stands in the way Of
doing justice to the public why not
amend it,
Mr.. Lind himself admits the dis
strict and supreme courts have the
right to stay any rate order which
the railroad commissioners might
issue, until the question is decided
in court, and he knows. only too we'll
that such stay can be drawn out
indefinitely to the detriment Of the
point at issue. And this is exactly
what Mr.. Cole desires to see cor
rected. Our laws are good in a gen.
eral way, but lack considerable to
make them effective in detail.
When q farmer ships q car load OF
cattle Or what and is charged exhor-
thereshould be q prompt
at hand. The present laws
contemplates this, but is lame in
that it permits long 2drswn 9out
ind. expensive delays This should
be changed in a way fair and
equitable to all concerned. st

According to all advices that have

on their way there, Senior Queseda,
the Cuban Minister, will remain at

Some papers have expressed sur
prise that this settlement has been
brought about without including
the annexation of Cuba t0 Il Q

intention of this government. Our

amendment was perfectly clear and
while there was no secret about the

terday, to escape prosecution which
threatened to terminate in the peniten-

head of the defunct real estate firm of
F. ID. Callan & Co. On top of revela-
tions of extensive dealings, apparently
of fraudulent character. it was predict
ed by lawyers that the succeeding
weeks will be productive of multitudin-
Gus claims against Callan's estate
from small investord scattered over
various sections of the country.
Callan shot and killed himself while
he was in his bedroom in the early
morning. Previously he had been re-
suscitated by DR.. I. f. Kerlin after an
attempt TO kill himself by inhaling es-
Gaping gas. He had been suffering
from a broken leg for several weeks.
A coroners' jury returned a verdict OF
suicide while temporarily insane.

They were brought 10 meet exactly
