WHAT NAME FOR TOWNSHIP

The new townsite to be laid out on the old Jaeger homestead, in Inn perial county, opposite Yuma, is not yet named A question has arisen as to what it shall be called. It is probable the town will be known as Randolph, in honor of Epes Randolph; but the names of Pasquale and Jaeger are also proposed. Pasquale was the name of an Indian chieftan, head of the Yuma tribe, who died in 1887. lac ger was the name of the man who homesteaded the land to be occupied by the townsite.

NELSON SURPRISED EN-.
Knute Nelson lived 66 years nd S

Knute Nelson lived 66 years nd sat in the
senate for II years before he revealed himself
to his countrymen The sturdy Scandinavian
has chung to public life continuously that
knowing ones had supposed him eel rather
than the porcupine he acts. Since 1868,
when he was member of the Wisconsin legis-
lature, his fellow citizens might almost have
held their breath during his intervals pri-
vate citizen so short they He moved
from Wisconsin to Minnesota in 1871 and was
prosecuting attorney of his county by 1872.
Thence it was but series of offices, each high
er than the last, till he stepped from the gov
ernorship to his present place. So far as the
world knew he was quiet, we'll disciplined
senator all these years, hence the surprise now
that he is veritable ripsaw Of insurgency. In
calling out by name senators who are unit to
vote on tariff schedul because of their private
interests he shows himself as unrelenting a
fighter as his colleague and former fellow citi-
zen of Wisconsin, Senator La Follette.-Ne-

THE PATH OF THE AMENDMENT.

An amendment to the federal constitution
has long road to travel It seems conceded
that the congress will give the necessary two
thirds majority to the Taft income tax amend
ment drafted by Senator Nelson. 1t is brief,
merely providing: Congress shall have power
to levy and collect direct taxes on incomes from
whatever sources derived without apportioning
the among the several states"
AS this is an administration measure it
should poll the full Republican vote in each
house. The Democrats may we'll support it, as
income taxation is historically Democratic, but
they may play politics by contending that this
resolution is only intended to delay the passage
of the Bailey -Cummins bill
This latter course is not probable. The in
surgent senators have already decided that the
are not. The one can go on it's way to approval
or rejection by the states, while the other, if
passed, would be on its way through the courts.
The greater difficulty would come in the
states. The legislatures of three-fourths of
these, which would be thirty-five, must vote
approval, and already the plan of attack is ap-
parent. It is by an appeal to self1shness and
states rights.
It is the same appeal that has been used
against federal inheritance tax, that this form
of revenue should be left exclusively to the
states, about one-third of them now havingt this
tax in some form. That the federal tax would
not supercede a similar state tax will not be
held sufficient.
tits only proposed to levy two per cent
federal rate; this supermposed upon any state
rate would be far from oppressive. This same
argument, too, would operate against the pas
sage of the Bailey Cummin law
But in spite of these obstacles, an income
tax is near-future necessity, as also will be
an inheritance tax from revenue needs. The
quicker both questions are threshed out in
their legal and political aspects the better.

The Paynesville Press has an idea Ct its
own as to how the money devoted toroad build
ing should be used. Here it is:-"Let all the
work be done as it is now done-under the su-
pervison Of the county or township authorizes.
Then have a state officer whose duty it shall be
to approve the road work in every part OF
given territory before any state, county or
township money be paid for the work. This
plan would permit of no divided responsibility
and would give the state the coveted super
vision" Not so bad.

SATURDAY. JUNE 10, 1909.


A Pennsylvania railroad company setting
out this spring more than a million of young
trees. The railroad companies are beginning
to realize the necessity for scientific and sys-
tematic forestry and the utilizing of portion
of the railroad right of way for the growing of
trees is sure to come. The time when trees
were planted only for ornament has now gone
by, and the time is rapidly approaching when
trees will be raised on all waste land and even
in front yards for their commercial value.

Some years ago Stephen Marsh, of Fairfield,
New Jersey, deeply grieved because his
aunt merely bequeathed him her family Bible,
although, the old lady had always told him he
was to be her principal legatee. Recently,
packing up to go West, he was debating in his
mind whether or not to take the family Bible
with him. In his indecision he CHANGED to open
the Bible and found in it nearly $4,000 in cash.
Between each pair of pages was one or more
pairs of bills from denomination of ten dollars
down to the "Shinplasters" of time. He
started for Colorado taking his legacy with him.
Family Bibles over in New Jersey will prob
ably be more often read in future.

Since the constitutionality of the road and
bridge bill has been attacked the ground
that the state cannot engage in works of inter
nal improvement, and wide breach has been
opened between the cities and the country, it is
stated that the validity of the appropriation for
capitol approaches will also be attacked. Pos
sibly the latter are unconstitutional, and if so,
they should be annuled. We do not admire
the bad feeling that had been stirred up in con-
nection with these various expenditures of
state money, but if the illegal expenditures
to be weeded out, some good will be done. The
sooner, also, that the Legislature has done with
expenditures that are questionable that they
have to be log-rolled thru, the better it will be
for the character of the work of that body.

There is some talk of forming party
in this state, and if ever there was a time when
the situation seemed to justify the formation
of new party, that time is now A party is
supposed to be number of persons associated
together because they think the same on some
important questions of public policy, but as
matter of fact the members of neither of the two
present parties have any definite views on pre-
sent day questions of Importance. Within this
state, both political organizations which wrong
ly bear the name of political parties are hope
lessly divided within their own ranks on such
questions as the tonnage tax, county option, or
corporation control. The present alignment of
the parties serves only to hinder the express
sion of the majority opinion and hinder reform
It is high time that either new party was
formed which would take definite and
consistent stand these questions, or else
that the old parties should take the opposite
sides of the pending questions, snd give the
voter a real opportunity to express his convic-
tions with his vote.

The St. Paul Dispatch has made much of
the announcement that under the new manage
ment the Dispatch and the Pioneer Press will
be run as independent newspapers, and is in
clined to sharply resent the sharp criticisms
which have been passed on the "ndependent"
newspaper by the country press, and considers
the country press hide-bound partizan or
gans. AS a matter of fact, the successful coun-
try newspapers of Minnesota have long since
discarded the partizan collar, and their partizan
service consists in hardly anything more dang
erous than the free publication of party con-
vention calls. The so-called "independent"
newspaper, however, who have touted their in
dependence, have been for the most part for
sale to the highest bidder and the very name of
independent newspaper has been brought into
some disrepute. If the Dispatch will run a
real independent newspaper with opinions and
convictions dictated only by what it may judge
to be the best public policy, and with it's columns
open to everyone, and it's service uncolor-
ed, it will soon find that it will stand highest in
the esteem of the country press. You have your
chance, Mr.. Dispatch, and now we will wait and
let you "show u.s.

The committee appointed by Governor
Hughes to investigate Wall street and the New
York exchanges has made it's report While
many minor reforms are suggested, and while
the evils of speculation are frankly discussed,
yet the committee finds it impossible to re-
commend any way to stop stock gambling
without abolishing the exchange itself. The
exchanges exist for the legitimate buying and
selling of stocks and produce, Legitimate trans
actions being made either for cash mar
gin, but by far the greater part of the trans
actions pure gambling, which are identical
in form with the legitimate transactions. The
committee suggests that a minimum margin
of 20 per cent instead of ten per cent would
assist in doing away with speculative trad
ing.
