We recall that in 1910 a great many
Morrison county democrats voted for
James Gray, who was for county op-

views on this question, but they dld
agree with his views on other matters,
and also particularly because they OBJ

Henry P. Dunn has been appointed
postmaster at Brainerd and will no
doubt make an excellent postmaster.
James Cullen, who had petition
largely signed by Brainerd citizens,
and James J. Nolan, an employe of
the Brainerd postoffice, were also can
didates. One of Brainerd's leading
democrats says that the national com.
mitteeman told Nolan that if he got
the endorsement Of certain Crow Wing
county democrats, he would receive
his endorsement. Nolan got the en-
dorsements, but Nolan didn't get the

The Minneapolis journal in endors-
ing the one-man idea as means of
efficiency, says that railroads corcen.
trate responsibility in order to get re-
suits. The Journal is unfortunate in
its allusion. There is probably no bet
ter example of inefficiency, and delay
in getting results, than most of the
great railroads represent. Mr.. Bran.
deis proved this beyond question in his
testimony before the committee on in.
terstate commerce Of the United States
senate. The recent revelations of the
New Haven management, and the feel
ing that similar conditions may exist
in other great railroad systems, is ad-
ditional evidence against the Journal q
claim. In theory despotism, provided
the despot were always wise, humane
and just, would be in the minds of
philosophers more satisfactory form
of government than q democracy,
which must necessarily reflect the i'm.
perfections of the mass of people as
well as their virtues. In actual prac-
tice, however, despotism does not work
for the welfare of men, even when the
despot is a Marcus Aurelius. The at.
tempt to create little despots here and
there to solve state and municipal
problems is not only not workable, but
is contrary to the genius Of the Ameri.
can system of government, and needs
9 different atmosphere in which to
flourish. If such despots are needed,
the failure Of government by the
people must be conceded. The state il
not business enterprise in the same
sense as . large wholesale dry goods
or wholesale grocery concern. The
business house is in business for profit,
but the state s business is to promote
the prosperity and happiness Of the
people, and Ito safe~"ard their rights,
and not to make money. The money
gof the people is to be honestly ana
economically used; but the investment

St. Paul is reaping what she has
sown in the union depot matter. Al
ways willing to stand by the railroads,
anxious to do what they wished, the
business and professional men Of St.
Paul now find an attitude Of contempt
confronts them in their desire to push
the union station project. The place
in use is disgrace, and the way the
railroads are treating the ever patient
citizens of st. Paul is likely to bring
about a revolution Of feeling.

According to figures given out by
Fred d.. Sherman, immigration com.
missioner, Minnesota has SOD cream
cries, which in 1912 made 116,051,S1S
pounds Of butter sand paid to it's
patrons in cash $29,O4O,975.43. In 1912
there were seventy-two cheese factor
les, which made ,s42,32S pounds Of
cheese and paid its patrons 1921 ,s0l.-
92. From 1900 to 1910 the dairy in
dustry in the state increased 50 per
cent, while the closest state rival an
creased only 22.2 per cent. Out Of ten
contests of the National Buttermakers
association Minnesota has eight times
been awarded the prize banner in COM
petition with all other states. At the
National Dairy Show in Chicago in
1912 Minnesota received the highest
average score; at the International
Dairy Show in Milwaukee Minnesota
carried away two silver cups.

To bring peace to Mexico and give
its people an opportunity to progress,
placing an end to fratricidal war, is an
achievement in which the president
and his secretary Of state can take
pride more than in the passing Of
tariff and currency bills. The Ameri-
can people probably have very little
more regard for Villa and Carranza
than they have for Huerta, but they
will rejoice in peace achieved with
out disastrous war. This achieve
ment and the labors for peace treaties
with the various nations Of the world
will make this administration memor-
able.

The Minneapolis journal, and the

The zeal with which certain papers,
generally known to be representative
Of corporate influence, are endorsing
the whole plan of the efficiency com.
mission, tends to suspicion. If the
legislature devotes great deal OF
time to this problem, it will have less
time to consider laws relating to taxa
tion, to control of grain exchanges, to
regulations Of railroads, ETC., all Of
which are vital problems. There is
probably scarcely a subject in recent
years before the people upon which SO
much dust is being thrown. Osten.
sibly intended to inform, most of the
so-called information is misleading,
composed of half-truths or entirely
erroneous statement. It.. is to be, pre-
sumed that those now engaged in do
in, the state g work have some knew
ledge of the work. It may perhaps be
cubceded that not all are crooks or IL
competents. Yet if any one of the
state 8 workmen undertakes to ques-
tion the accuracy of the statements
made, or to doubt the infallibility Of
the makers of the statement, he is
branded as an interested party,
and therefore his opinions are Of no
value. The attempt is being made to
create state Of mind or panlcKy
feeling among the people. that the
state is to 20 to the deminition bow
vows unless it adopts "a plan originat-
ing with q man who had been scarce
II three months in the state. The plan
proposed has been considerably chang
ed since its first draft. It was not IN
tended as a reform, SO its author stat.
ed, but as revolution. It's purpose is
good, but successive committees Of the
legislature have had the same purpose
in view. It is not necessary, in order
to lop of few boards, or consolidate
some others, to adopt plan of state
government revolutionary in its nature
and like nothing elsewhere. rs 80 80

Democracy has profted much from his

ability, and during the Governor John

on more than one occasion pleading for
support for Democracy's favorite. His
| speech Of acceptance when named
chairman of the meeting Of the state
central committee was a neat bit Of
work and put him in solid with the
boys. @
One of the jokes Of the campaign is
the belief in some quarters that w. E.

From what can be learned, the Lee

| of Minneapolis and at an hour when it
was impossible to contradict it. Lee,
| for your benefit, is an American, was
born in this country, and his ancestry
is English.
Speaking Of the Rines-Preus recount,
possibly nothing that has taken place
in Republican circles of late has been
as productive of soreness as this par
