WHAT IS A LOBBYIST?

The Minnesota legislature seems anx-
ious to preserve the undisturbed usetof
the house and senate chambers and cor
ridors to itself, and has adopted rules
to shut out lobbyists. And it is stated
that the rules are designed to shut out
the lobbyists for the people as we'll as
those of special interests.
And this brings. up the question
"What is lobbyist?" Is it man
working for the passage of bills in some
special interest or is it man working
in the interests of the people" or both?
A lobbyist, in the accepted sense of
the term, is person who frequents the
lobbies of a legislature, seeking favor
able or unfavorable action upon some
special measure or set of measures
This would include as we'll the "peo-
pies" representative as the representa-
tive of the railroads or the elevators
or any other corporations. - .
If resident of the state believes that
a bill to change the present prohibition
law or tax law or any other law should
not be passed, he comes post haste to
the capitol, if his interest is deep
enough, and irnportunes his friends IN
the legislature to defeat the obnoxious
measure He thereupon becomes a
lobbyist ~" a rs -, --,&
If state officer or department official
desires to see certain law passed or
defeated, he enters the arena and uses
his influence to the end he believes to
be wise. He thereupon becomes a lob
byist. e.,
IF a statesman believes certain pro-.
posed legislation is in the interest of the
people, and mingles with the members
of the legislature, impressing his views
upon the members and seeking to- get
votes for it, he thereupon becomes a
lobbyist. ~ e.:
So it appears that the term "lobby-.
ist" is an elastic one, and spreads its
shadows over the righteous. and un-
righteous, the just and the unjust. Ex-
cept as they may be physically in the
way, we do not see but. all of them
have the right to remain on earth. = Lee
gitinnate lobbying is all right-lobbying
BY argument and reason and presenta-
ton of fact 1t is sillegitimate lobbying
accompanied by Interior influences
that is obnoxious and bad. - ~. /
It would appear, though, that most
Of us, at certain times, have been Sob
byists.". ! K = j ~, =, =. -" 4 :

IA good many Of the druggists Of the
state have given up their permits and
voluntarily retired from the business Of

of the law. A good many have been

$ator Macarthur will present to the leg
islature = bill repeating the drug permit
law altogether and putting the dispens-
ing Of liquors into the hands Of ply
sicians. The only argument that has
been advanced in behalf Of drug permits
Ito sell liquors has been that there is fire.,
quent1y a need OF liquor for medicinal
purposes and that there must be some
source from which 1t can properly be
obtained II is well known that in many
parts Of the state the enforcement of the
drug permit law has been farce. Drug
gists ii some cases have sought to make
money out Of the sale Of liquor and in
other cases they have been prevailed

There is similarity in the measures
that are being advocated in all of the
northwestern states. Montana's legis-
laturesshas bills before. it establishing
the direct primary. system, for the abol-
ition Of railroad passes and the franking
privilege, and similar proposed legis-
lation.e A good many Of the north
western. states have the direct: primary
system in operation, and anti-pass laws
are not uncommon. The public men
who advocate anti-pass legislation are
pretty we'll in accord in the anti-pass
matter: There is no question but the
railroads would be we'll pleased if all
OF the states supplemented the federal
legislation with laws prohibiting the is
suarlce Of passes within the states. 1

The complaint was apparently Tram.

grounds or theories of recovery:

err and that he kept and harbored

as to permit its escape from the en-
closure and to inflict the injury com
planned OF. Second, that the animal
was trespassing at the time Of the
injury; hence its owner Is liable for

the animal to thus escape. The trial
court submitted the issues to the
jury on the first two theories only.

THE IMMIGRATION CAMPAIGN

any backward steps in the campaign q
immigration for settlers. The othei
northwestern states are alive to the i'm
portance of immigration work, to coun,
teract the result of the substantial cam
paign that has been made in western
Canada. North Dakota has been in a
measure holding its own in this immi-
grafton campaign, for the reason that
"a fund has been provided with which
to work and good work has been done
with it. The Minneapolis Journal in
dicates what other states think of-this
question in the following paragraphs

ONTO COLLEG E

With the passing of the commence ment season the question naturally rises in the minds of many young people as to just what is to be "commenced, ' whether 8 course of higher education or work for a likelihood. With @ large number of young people who have this year completed the work offered by the schools Ill which they have been schol- ars the question is not so much whether or not they shall continue their educa- tion so as to fit themselves for something better than that for which they are at present qualified, it is rather one of how their parents can afford to send them to college.
 It is one of the pleasant and encourag- ing things about education in this coun- try to-day that an increasing number of young people are each year working their way" through colleges. They know that they want a college educa- and the advantages it offers and are de- tsrmined to secure it even if there are obstacles Tn the way.
 In our own state, Yale College has pridsd itself for many years upon offer ing many chances to the young man who intends to obtain funds at the same time with his education. There are several other institutions which have the same policy and it Is becoming more generally accepted every year that the young man or woman who is willing to put up with inconveniences and to work hard at whatever presents itself in order to ab- tain higher education is by no means 8 loser thereby for he obtains along with his theoretical education an experience in making his own way in the world which adds an inestimable value of his education and gives him decided hand ioap oyer those of his classmates who have passed through college at greater ease.
