CANDIDATE FOR REELECTION
Judge Ira B. Mills, Veteran Railroad
and Warehouse Commissioner
Should be Retained.

Ira B. Mills, member of the state
railroad and warehouse commission,
Saturday announced his candidacy for
the Republican nomination as commits
sioner. He was appointed to the COM
mission by Governor Nelson and has
been member ever since except for
one year, 1900.
Mr.. Mills gave out statement in
which he asked for the support of the
voters on his ''record as a commits
sioner and the knowledge acquired by
study of the subjects constantly COM
ing before the commission"
''The duties of the commission have
steadily increased since l became COM
missioner" Mr.. Mills said. "Origin-
ally confined to the regulation of the
railroads and grain interests, there
has been added from time to time jur-
isdiction over express companies,
weights and measures, commission
merchants of grain and agricultural
products, and the last legislature
placed storage warehousemen and tel
ephone companies under the commits
sion.
81 have drawn many of the laws
under which the commission acts and
have made a constant study of the
subject of public service regulation.
knowledge of the subjects with which
the commission has to deal is neces-
sary to the proper discharge of the
public duties.
During the last four years the COM
mission has passed upon $500 COM
plants, involving the different sub
jects under its jurisdiction. Nothing

of any great Importance is disposed of
without discussion by all members of
the commission, and nearly all of the
adjustments of these questions have
been entirely satisfactory to complain
ants and the general public.
"The commission secured, after pro-
tracted litigation, the establishment of
the legislative and commissioners
freight and passenger rates, and since
the decision of the United Sttaes Su-
preme court holding those rates not
confscatory, the commission has Sc
cured refunds from the different car
riers to the shippers of $3,0O0,OO0.
"The commission, with other west
ern state commissions appeared on be-
half of western states before the In
terstate Commerce commission to OPP
pose the advance asked by the carriers
in western freight rates, aided by ap-
preparations by several state legisaat-
ures, of which Minnesota contributed
$4,000. Such thorough examination
was made of the carriers books and
evidence so convincing was presented
that the Interstate Commerce Gem
mission refused any advance on grain,
grain products, live stock, etc. 1t is
estimated that this action saved the
western shippers at least $10,OOO,OOO
per year"

CHANGE IN ROAD is URGED

The Grey Eagle Gazette in its last
issue says:
"a petition is being circulated in
Birchdale township asking for a
change in the road and railroad eros
sing between Sections 81 and %. The
proposed change would effect the
crossing known as the Melrose eros
sing between the Albers and Ahrens
farms, by building new crossing to
the east Of the hill on the road to the
south of Leonard Ritter's farm. The
present crossing has been a very I'M
desirable one for travellers as it is
almost impossible to see approaching
trains from either direction. 1t is I'M
derstood that the railway would favor
the change, having in mind the addi-
tional safety and the removal of the
possibility of injuries or accidents to
those using this road, as it is the prin-
cipal road leading to Sank Centre and
Melrose."

eral theme of all the pastors and all
had prepared especially powerful and
forceful sermons. Choirs and Sunday
schools had arranged special musical
programs in most churches and inter-
iors were increased in their beauty
by great masses and quantities Of
potted and cut plants and flowers.
In the afternoon came the time-hon-
ored Easter parade" and display of
new gowns and bonnets. Mere man
was bewildered and dazzled by the
riot of colors and extreme fashions
presented for his approval. If he dis
approved he was wise not to say so.
However, no city of its size in the
country could present as many pretty
and handsomely styled women as
Sank Centre did last Sunday.
1t was also the first really pleasant
day Of spring for motoring and ma
chimes were out in large numbers,
many making the run to Melrose and
other neighboring cities.
