There is a decidedly warm race on
for Harry Riders job as executive
agent of the state game and fish com.
mission. Rider has to go-that has
been agreed upon-but who TO give
the position to is the question. The
retiring member of the board is, Fred
Meyers of Biwabic and he wants to be
returned. If such is done the powers
that be will make it conditional that
a new executive agent be named.
President Bradley of the board, who
is much interested in game protec.
ton, would accept the job, and then
again Carlos Avery of Hutchinson
would like to have it, Mr. Avery was
executive agent under the late Gov.
ernor Johnson. The commission met
last week to organize for the year,

resentative Spooner of Morris has OF.
fered bill providing for joint com
mittee to consider it and other like
measures. AS far as the house and
senate is concerned there is hardly a
man who is not for economy and eff
cheney in state affairs, but it is the
brand that troubles most of them.
A lot of the boys are asking to be
shown. In the senate Bob Dunn is
due to fight the particular brand pro.
