Efforts at Merger Fail.

1t appears that all efforts to merge the
two clubs are therefore at an end. 1t is
expected. however, that members of the
old club who have dogs will show them
and take an active part in the show this
spring.
Howe Totten said after the meeting

an effort to have a dog show in WASH

Eberhart Permits Elevator Interests to Dictate
Appointments to State Board of Grain Appeals

transit. All were in the interest of
the grower and shipper. Samples of
a machine invented by the Duluth
board for determining the test weight
on grain have been ordered by the
Grain Standardization bureaus at Chi
cago and Washington. This machine
eliminates all possibility for manipu
lating either for or against the grain.
The actual weight is determined with
out doubt.
AS has been said, and which fact
has never been disputed, Gov. John
sons appointees, six in number, were
appointed solely because of their ia
miliarity with the grain business eth
er as growers or small buyers. Two
have gone out of Office by reason of
expiration of the terms for which
they were appointed. 1t is because
their successors are representative of
other interests that the growers and
shippers are so inf1amed against the
appointing power. For example, at
Duluth, c. j. Bryant was named to
succeed T. B. McManus, of Crookston.
Bryant was assistant deputy state in
spector at Duluth for the five years
Immediately preceding his appoint
ment and as such officer passed upon
and reinspected at least ninety per
cent of all the grain before it was
appealed during that time. In other
words, Gov Johnson's board of ap-
peals raised to higher grade at least
Is per cent of all the grain inspected
by Mr.. Bryant.
When it is charged without contra
diction that the Duluth grain inter-
ests dictated Bryan's appointment the
reason for that action is obvious.
A. G. Chambers, former member
Of the Minneapolis Chamber of Com
merce, was appointed to succeed S. P.
Thorson, of Winthrop, on the Mime
apolis board His sympathies are with
whom? The farmer who succeeds
in getting crop of wheat in dry
year can answer this question.
Not only are the appointees unsat-

The grain growers of the state are
up in arms over appointments by Gov.
Eberhart to the board of grain ap-
peals. This, is the board that is sup
posed to stand between the interest
of the grain growers and shippers and
the avarice of grain buyers. 1t is, as
it's name indicates, a. board of men
who serve in judicial capacity when
exception is taken to the grades given
any shipment of wheat by the inspec-
tors of the grain and warehouse COM
mission. The farmers were respons-
ible for the creation of these boards
there is one at Minneapolis and an
other at Duluth-and Gov. Johnson's
policy was to name to these two
boards men truly representative of the
growers and who attempted to place
the state grain inspection on a scien-
tifc basis. The board named by Gov.
Johnson was the first and only board
to make any recommendations to the
grain and warehouse commission for
improvements in the inspection OF
grain Among the recommendations
was one for the establishment of a
laboratory in connection with the in
spection department., where milling
and baking tests could be made, thus
educating the inspectors as to the
milling value of the grain and enabling
them to draw the line properly be-
tween the respective grades. They
also recommended very important i'm
provements in the methods of inspect
ing grain out of store into cargoes,
which seemed to have been carried
on in a very unsatisfactory manner,
in that q number of streams had been
run into the boat while the inspectors
were considering the grade. The
boards recommendation was that
average samples be taken and that the
same be graded and locked before
being loaded on the boats. This was
simply the method used on in
coming grain. They also safe
guarded grain for export; to prevent
mixing and tampering with while in

amendment to our constitution. it
would forever stop the trafficking in
legislation: There would be no object
in defeating just and fair law in
the legislature, for the people would
enact it themselves, if their represen.
tatives refused to perform their duty.
Nor would it be worth while to log
roll an unjust or vicious law through
the legislature, for the people could
repudiate it and set it aside.
PrudentIy Silent.
On these vital questions Gov. Eber-
hart is prudently silent. His political
friends would surely resent it if he
should indicate the least disposition
to favor such thorough-going reforms.
But he doesn't hesitate to express his
misgivings about our primary law
But l venture to predict that any leg
islature elected in this state, particu-
larly when the people are as much
awake on political questions as they
are in this campaign, will not take any
chances by modifying our primary
law to any great extent. Our pri-
mary law has been disastrous to the
political bosses and ward heeIers.
Their occupation is almost gone, but
the people, on the whole, are pretty
we'll satisfied with it and are not
half SO worried about the expense it
entails as is the governor.
I would not feel that I had done
this occasion justice without discuss
ing the most important question agi-
tating the public mind more fully. l

self make any county wet or dry. 1t
simply means that the legislature
shall pass law authorizing the peo-
pie Of the county to determine by
vote for themselves whether saloons
shall be allowed in the county or not.
For the life of me cannot see any,
thing startling in this proposition.
The startling thing to my mind is
that it is not the law today. AS
people we profess to believe in local
self-government. Is it not part of self
government to have the power to reg
ulate the saloon question? The liquor

do this? No. Early in January, with
out giving notice, the governor ap-
pointed A. G. Chambers, of Minneapolis,
to the Minneapolis Board, and Charles
Bryant, of Duluth, to the Duluth Board.
BY whom were these men recommend
ed? By the Grain Trusts. Mr.. Bry-
ant has been in the Inspection Depart
ment for years. He is said to be one
of those who is anxious to combine the
Inspection Department with the Board
of Appeals. There are but three firms
doing the greater part of the export
business at Duluth. All commission
companies are dominated by them. 1t
was they who recommended the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Bryant Mr.. Cham
bers is said to be defunct member of
the Minneapolis Chamber of Com
MERGE, and was recommended for ap-
pointment by some of the old line
elevator companies. We need not ask
whom these men are going to serve,
for according to Holy Writ, The ass
knows his masters crib whereat he
can eat
Seven or eight of the old line ele-
vator companies at Minneapolis have,
for years, been trying to have a sys-
TEN of dockage placed on oats and
barley. Thus far they have been un-
successful. Mr.. Chambers was evil
IDENTIFY pledged to such a procedure.
These companies want to buy oats
and barley according to dockage sys-
TEN at Minneapolis and Duluth and
ship the same to Milwaukee and Chi
cago where there is no dockage. Such
a system as that is but little less than
highway robbery. Yet that is evident
ly the purpose of these concerns in
their endeavors to control the Board
of Appeals. Efforts should be made
to have the governor cancel those ap-
pointments. They were made behind
closed doors seven months before the
Offices would be vacated. We cannot
see on what principle of law or mo-
rality such appointments can be main
tanned"

Where Jim Gray Stands.

When the nominee of the Demo
cratic party declined to accept the
nomination, the state central commit
tee felt in duty bound to select a can
didate who held the same views on
stood for the same policies generally
as the nominee. They selected James
Gray, morally and intellectually the
peer Of any man in the state. A
graduate of our state university, with
the experience of having successfully
administered the greatest city in the
state, he is spIendidIy equipped for
the discharge of the duty Of the high
office for which he has been named.
Above all, he has the courage of his
convictions and owes allegiance to no
power on earth, except his own sense
Of justice and the obligation Of pat
riotic man to his country, and its
laws. We know where he stands, and
right here, is to my mind, the most
marked difference between the two
candidates. It's the difference be-
tween the progressive and the stand
patter. The progressive states his
convictions on public questions freely,
for he has nothing to conceal. The
standpatter hesitates for fear that the
people might not agree with him.
One trusts the good judgment of the
people, the other trusts the Judgment
Of those who would circumvent the
people.
The same difference between the
two men is further evidenced by their
respective attitudes on other ques-
tons. Mr.. GRAY believes in the right
of the people to initiate and pass
necessary laws by popular vote, if
their representatives refuse to give
heed to their right and reasonable de-
mands. He believes in their right to
challenge a law passed by the legis-
lature which is deemed unjust, and
to require. that it be submitted to
popular vote before it shall become
effective. These rights the people
have already obtained in Oregon, in
Maine and in many other of the pro-
gressive states. If the people of this
state were given these rights by an

isfactory to the grain growers, but
un-American. Eight months before
the vacancies we're to occur Gov. Eber-
hart listened to his advisors at Du-
luth and Minneapolis, and forestal1ing
any actions by the farmers and ship
pers, he announced the appointment
of Bryant and Chambers.
1t was a star-chamber method that
was employed and entirely un-Ameri-
can. The governor, the servant of the
whole people, was working for class
and that class one that is abundantly
able to care for itself without assist
ance from the governor on that day
that he decided to name Bryant and
Chambers.
Not only are the shippers of Mime
sofa affected by the personnel of these
boards, but North Dakota farmers are
equally interested that a fair board be
named.
The Equity Farm News, published
at Minot On. D., but largely circu-
lated in Minnesota, in it's June issue,
says of the governors action in nam
ing Bryant and Chambers, and makes
a strong case against the appointing
power:
ION an average of $4,000 to 10000
cases are appealed from the Inspec-
ton Department each year. From 25
to 30 per cent of the inspection deci-
sions have been raised. The Board
is above all the representative of the
country shipper. Governor Johnson
considered it such and appointed rep
resentation from the country as near
ly as he could. S. p. Thorson, of Min
neapolis Board is farmer of sixteen
years experience. T. B. McManus, of
the Duluth Board, is also farmer.
Their terms expire on August I. 1t
would have been natural for the gov
ernor to have asked country shippers
to recommend persons for appoint
ment to those places, and to wait a
reasonable time for such recommends
tions to be made. Did the governor
