Practically every state which lin .r "a
cent years has established public
utilities, commission has followed the
Wisconsin plan and provided for an
appointive commission. Minnesota
formerly had an appointive railroad
and warehouse commission. When
Governor Lind was elected, the Repub-
lican legislature did not want him to
appoint the members OF this com
mission, and for that reason made
the commission elective. The Repub-
lican leaders in the legislature, who
succeeded In securing the passage Of
this law, acted not ia th4 interest sot
better service, but purely for apoltti-
cal expediency, in the hope that the
commission would select employees Of
the Republican faith only and thus
strengthen the forces Of the Repub-
ltcan organization. True, finnesota
has been fortunate in the election Of
good men on the railroad and ware
house commission, but that fact does
not right the wrong nor Justify its
ohtinuance. Under the ap SpcinfiiYSis
