PUBLIC UTILITIES IN MINNESOTA

Gov. A. o. Eberhart, OF Minnesota,
who was in Washington for a few
hours, Is a firm believer in the control
of public utilities by the state. He
said:
One Of the purposes OF my trip east
is to study the public service commits
sion work in the eastern states, for it
Is my intention to call an extra ses-
sion of the state legislature of Mime
sofa to have a bill passed giving the
appointive power to the governor for a
commission of three to have full charge
Of public utilities. l am doing this not
necessarily to appear as wishing to d.
rect affairs, but having the appointive
power any errors or misapplied use Of
the power given the commission or
failure to fulfill the duties outlined for
it, will come directly back to the gov
ernor. l feel that placing the respon-
sibility in that manner upon the execu-
tive will insure the best results to the
people. We have at present a railway
and warehouse commission, and a bill
which was introduced in the last legis-
lature for the purpose of ~embodying
the duties 1 suggested in a message
passed the house but was killed in the
senate. 1t is my ideaa that telephones,
electric lights and some other public
utilities can be handled better by a
state commission, inasmuch as it oc.
cupies the place in a state that the
interstate commerce commission does
in the nation. That is, the cities can
not through their various enterprises
water stock or create such extensions
as will not benefit adjoining comuuni-
ties. Such a body will do away with
the cost OF city commissions and assist
materially in the upbuilding OF conpect-
ing lines throughout the state, con-
trolled to prevent excessive capitalize
ton, and to insure a uniformity Of con-
nections and rates in the state"

We are republicans and owe no
allegiance to any man. We are not
Taft men. We are not La Toilette
men. We are neither standpat nor
bull moose.
That is, they are lust republicans"
who are required at the present time.
These Leoti republicans are mem
bers OF a party which has been identi-
fed with the prosperity and progress
OF the nation for the past half century.
They have found the principles of that
party sufficient for them and for the
perpetuation of representative institu-
tons and the happiness and we'll being
of the nation.
Loyal to their party, believing in it
as the best available instrument
through which the continued progress
of the country may be assured, they
are Of the belief that their party is su-
perior to any man or set of men in it;
that it represents the hopes and be-
liefs of millions of Americans rather
than the ambitions and power lust Of
any man OIL coterie, and, in that spirit
Of loyalty and that belief, they support
the party and its declared principles.
1t is that spirit which will reanimate
the republican party-which is already
terminating it. The republican party
has today, as it always has had, an ex-
allied mission, and M temporary check
can serve to destroy it nor to obscure
its aims. 1t represents the aspirations
of the best in the nation, u~nalterable
opposition to theories ~subversive of our
republican form, of government, same
progress and firm opposition to the
vagaries of the u%nthinking, the lawless
and the revolutionary.
II has no place for the demagogue,
the half baked socialist or anarchist
or the supreme self seeker. The men
who believe in its principles and it's
mission will maintain the party in
healthy and benefcially active condi-
ton when the present crew of workers
are forgotten. As Just republicans"
they are an enduring force in the ma.
tion.-Chicago Inter-Ocean.
