A great many newspapers and in
dividuals within the"dry' territory
labor under the delusion that congress
when it meets will grant speedy re-
lief from the recent closing order-or
rather from the order served upon the
railroads and which prohibits the ship
ping of intoxicants into so called
Indian country. Such people are
doomed to disappointment. 1t is no
doubt within the power of congress to
abrogate the indian treaties but the
sentiment among the members of con-
gress must be practically unanimous,
since it would be possible for single
member to kill that kind of legisla-
ton. Instead of being opposed by
one or a few, however, it is entirely
likely that practically every member
of congress from the southern states
would oppose legislation looking to
the establishment of the liquor
traffic in restricted territory. Those
are the brutal facts and we may as
we'll face the situation just as it is

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1910.

Good roads will be one Of the big
subjects of legislation at the coming
session. The constitutional amend
ment allowing the state to pay one
half of the cost of a road instead of
one-third has been passed, and this
not only means that the people favor
ed this change. but that they desire
to see the cause of good roads advanc-
ed generally. Bob Dunn will be a
member of the coming Legislature and
will 90 there especially to advance
the cause of good roads, and will
have the courage to urge the radical
changes which will be necessary to
really do some good.

1t is now announced that the
troublesome Indian treaties which
exclude Intoxicating liquors from
practically the whole of Minnesota
are to be put up to the courts, test
case being brought under each treaty.
and the trial expedited in order that
an early decision may be obtained.
1t is surprising that the liquor dealers
who are so much interested in these
treaties have not had ruling from
the courts long before this, unless
they feared that the courts would up
hold the treaties. This county is in
cluded in the prohibited district under
one of the treaties, and the law
should either be enforced. or declared
null by the courts, or ab@ogated by
congress. Since the Indians have all
left here. the reasonable thing to do
is for congress to leave the matter en-
tirely with the people here. We be-
lieve in home rule in these matters,
congress should abrogate the treaty
and the state Legislature should give
US the right to vote upon the ques-
tion, either as city or a county or
both.
Morris tribune., 1910-12-02

Several of our exchanges are advo-
eating a change in the method of elect
ing the county superintendent of
schools of excluding the Independent
districts over which the county super
intendent has no control and in whose
election, therefore the independent
districts should have no voice. The
change is a. reasonable one, and yet a
still better change would be to create
a county board of education who
should select the county superintend-
ent from efficient school men any
where. as city superintendent are
selected.

All the plans regarding Minnesota
having ten congressman can now be
quietly laid aside for future re-
ference. Speculations as to an in
crease in the congressional represent
alton were based on possible popu-
Iation of two and quarter millions
but the official figures given out this
week make the population only g.
OTIS, 7O8. The states growth has
been very largely confined to the
large cities and the northern part of
the state. In fact, twenty eight
counties in the southern and western
part of the state, OF which Stevens is
one, show a loss in population in the
last ten years. due to farmers
leaving for the cheaper lands in the
West and in Canada.
