the progressive campaign of last year
and candidates who did not come up
to their way of thinking were hauled
over the Goals and their defeat recon-
mended. Handlan and Dindorf were
among this number. There was a re-
traction in the case of one, but ven
geance has burned within him ever
since. hence his activity. That these
bills will get by the two houses is not
likely, but it has to be said that many
favor them.
There will not be state land de-
partment separate from the state au-
ditor's office, as advocated by Govern
or Eberhart The house gave the
Kneeland bill, providing for such. a
department., its quietus. Upstate
members were generally for it.

The probe into the affairs of the
state game and fish commission by the
legislative committee on accounts and
expenditures continues and the things
it has brought to light are by no means
a credit to the state. Characterizing
the administration of the fish and
game department as damnable and
rotten, Representative L. G. Spooner
of Morris advised immediate steps
looking to the impeachment of the
members Of the commission and its
executive agent, Harry Rider. The
committee has the suggestion under
consideration, but it is hardly likely
that such will be done. AS I pointed
out in a previous letter politics is the
whole trouble and as the probe goes
deeper 1t only serves to substantiate
| the charge. II has not been SO much
/ n1aifeasance on the part of the mem
! bers as an effort on the part of few
to use the department for their OWL
uses and pockets.
The senate passed a bill permitting
| liens on gravestones, but the house
could not stand for such sacrilegt
and promptly killed the measure.

Professor Oscar M, Olson, confessed
slayer of Clyde N. Darling, at the Oh

not guilty when arraigned before
Judge G. M. Orr in the Ramsey county
district court.
The prisoner was seemingly as self
assured as ever and looked little the
worse for his six days of confinement
when he appeared in court and en-
tered his plea through his attorney,

Town elections were held through
out the state this week and the tenn
perance and liquor organizations hav-
ing headquarters in Minneapolis and
St. Paul are awaiting with much in
terest the returns on the. question of
wet and dry. Two years ago the dry
forces had trife the best of it,
though in the main neither side had
much to brag about. In order to al
low the state lawmakers to partici-
pate in the elections both branches
adjourned for three days, the longest
period they have been absent from
their work in some weeks.

The present house of representa-
tives is certainly entitled to the med
al as the hardest working body in the
history of the state. When the mem
bers are not in regular session they
are engaged in committee work and
it is not unusual to see every COM
mittee room occupied and many OF
the committees working way into the
night. One day recently these com
mittees turned out grist of bills
that fairly swamped the desk clerks
and the day following there was an
other deluge. AS far as some of the
bills are concerned, however, they
contain little in the way of merit.
+ i !.
Why such deluge of bills, you
probably ask. The question is nat
ural one, but your sitting member is
best qualified to answer it. Yours
truly cannot. Fully two-thirds Of
them are almost duplicates of laws
that are already on the books and 9th
ers are amendments that really dc
nothing. Take the question OF liquor
regulation, for instance. At one meet
ing of the temperance committee las
| week an interested outsider pointed
out four much advertised measures fol
liquor control alrnoat exact duplicates
of laws now on the statute books One
member expressed surprise at thii
duplication and said he never knew
there were such laws on the books
1t may not be generally known, bu
there are laws on the statute books to
day which would put every saloon II
the state out of business II enforced
The same is the case in oil other line
which call for regulation.
