MANY GOVERNMENTS

New York Evening Post. How de-
voted we are to self-government is
shown by the number OF governments
under which we choose to live This
city, like all our large centers, is
mixture of city and county govern
ment. Massachusetts must preserve
the county of Suffolk, even if the COM
missioners from that county are the
members of the Boston city council.
Philadelphia, with perfect" charter
which she is making one more deter
mined effort to repeal, is co-extensive
with the county of Philadelphia, but
must elect few county officials. Chi
cago astonishes herself now and then
by counting up the number of bodies
within her limits empowered to levy
taxes. There are several score OF
them. Now SO uncongested city as
indianapolis discovers that she has ten
local governments. In addition to the
city government, is, of course, the
county government. Then there are
four townships within the city limits,
and each of them has government.
The school city" is separate from the
"civil city" Finally there are SAM
tary commission, park board, and
department of health and charities.
Even small towns usually have more
than one government. The argument
for single government is so strong
that one would think that unification
of local government would come about
normally.

Pioneer Press California has long
been celebrated for It's excellent road
ways but California Is by no means
satisfied with what she has. On July
4 Californians will vote at special
election, which has been called by the
governor to authorize the expendi-
ture Of the huge some Of $4,000, 600
for the completion of the highway sys-
tenn of that state That CalifOrnians
will approve the measure is regarded
as certain. They are so intent upon 1t
that they do not propose to wait for
the regular election, but ask special
election in order that the work may be
begun at the earliest possible moment.
One of the most interesting places
of post-bellum reconstruction is the
mounting public concern In the mat
ter of good roads. During the next
five or six years a sum running high
into the hundreds of millions of dol
lars will be spent in the United States
for paved highways. Pennsylvania is
spending $5OO0O,OOO, Illinois $780,
100000 and here is Minnesota, if the
amendment passed by the last session
of the legislature is approved by the
people, we shall spend in .he neigh
borhood of 100000 on great
network of paved roadways 5000
miles in length. We could not afford
to do less. AS compared with the
roads of California, Florida, Illinois
and Pennsylvania ours are very poor,
no state needs relief more sorely
tan ours.

ONE OF .THE PEOPLE" SPEAKS

j. f. jacobson, the rugged old
fighter of Lac qui Parle county, has
come out in favor of a Republican
state convention in 1920.
By no stretch of the Imagination
can jacobson be called one of the "bos-
ses," if any man in the state may tru-
| " be designated by thar much abused
term of being one of the "the people"
| it is certainly j. F. jacobson. His es-
pousal of primary reform has COM
state and is most heartening to those
who have been making discouraging
fight for the establishment of re-
preventative government. He is not a
candidate for office nor primarily in
terested in anyone's candidacy.
Says Mr.. jacobson in letter to the
Minneapolis Journal
"There will be republican conven-
ton in Minnesota in 1920" wrote Mr..
Jacobson, ito nominate candidates for
full state and congressional ticket
and great many counties will have
republican county conventions to nom
mate Legislative candidates pledged to
primary reform all along the line.
II predict a full delegation from
every county in the state. 1t will be
no eliminating convention. It will be
a convention to draft candidates if
necessary The eliminating conven-
ton in Minneapolis was a different
affair. 1t had one purpose in view,
to get rid of the man who had devised
a scheme to perpetuate himself in
office indefinitely. This was accom-
plished, and could have been accom-
plished in no other way at that time.
It demonstrated that organization
though imperfect as that organization
was, could accomplish results, and I
feel confident we will never get rid of
the present impossible and dangerous
primary system without organization.
/ believe there is yet enough vitality
left in the republicans of Minnesota
20 get back to the fundamental system
of our government, that majorities
shall rule.
"A state and legislative ticket nom
mated on this platform can and will
be elected, and much needed primary
election reform accomplished Nor

PLAIN CUSSIN'

Did you ever get 90 talking to a
Y.M.C.A. girl, or Red Cross girl, or
some other girl over here who under
stands your language as we'll as you
do, and suddenly you'd stop and gasp
like dying trout and turn red and
go away from that place without a
word of explanation?
Of course, you have. We all have.
We realized that, in classic parlance.
we'd pulled a bone.
Then we'd generally go back 20 our
billet and try to forget all about it by
reading or playing Garfield with our
selves for our months pay And when
ever we saw that girl again, we'd cross
the street and be hugely interested in
watching the watering cart get filled.
Probably the A. E. F. is, altogether
as clean minded bunch of soldiers as
ever helped win world war. But these
words and phrases which we consi-
der as purely decorative and don't
mean thing thereby-have a habit
of crawling into the seams of our con-
versation, even as the festive cootie
crawls into the seams of the shirts.
And some folks don't understand that
they're just ornaments.
And have you ever thought how
much worse its going TO be when you
get home and 60 to see your girl, and,
entirely without your volition there
pops out stream OF sky-blue Lam
guage O-o-oh, Lord!
But we believe remedy can be eff
fected. Take 80 minutes off every day
between now and the time you go
home and see how full you can pack
it with words that aren't cusses. And
for every cuss dock yourself one prune
at mess Then you can 60 home with
out a muzzle.
Because there isn't any real reason
why cussin' plain or fancy should
be necessary.
Not single, damn one.-Stars and
Stripes.

Good roads, Of course, means the
attraction to Minnesota or profitable
tourists traveI-but they mean far
more than this. Last September ut
Cleveland test was made with sew
eral tWo-ton trucks on paved and un-
paved roads. Each truck, fully load
ed travelled 100 miles on 8.49 gallons
Of gasoline over the paved road. The
cost for the gasoline at Is cents a
gallon. was $2.12. Over the plain
dirt road these trucks travelled SIM
liar distance on 17.30 gallons each, the
cost for the gasoline being $4.33, or an
increase of more than 100 per cent.
Every time you drive on dirt road,
YOU use twice as much gasoline as
when you travel on a paved surface.
At this rate, i. would not take several
million automobiles long to save the
entire sum to be spent on hard-surfac-
ing American roads. And these fl
cures, of course, take no account of the
tire economy Obtained on hard-surfac-
ed roads. The average tire will pro-
badly duplicate the economy effected
IN the matter of gasoline. The far
mer who is interested in moving his
produce to market speedily and cheap
" is first to realize the desirability of
extending city pavement into country
district. 1t means money in his peck
et-and under the Minnesota system,
the cost is to be paid by the motor cars.

GOV. HAS FIRST PHOENIX TO
 GLOBE AIR FLIGHT TICKET

Phoenix, Ariz., Jan. Ex-Governor Campbell holds the first aerial tran- sportation passenger ticket to be is- sued in this state. It was rendered him by the Apache Aerial Transpor- tation company which contemplates the establishment of the first aerial stage line between this city and Globe The occasion of the presen- tation was the ground breaking cere- monies for the big landing station near East Lake Park.
 Commissioner Belts of the Corpor- ation Commission is running the gov ernor a close race for high honors, as he has been selected by President West Hill of the Apache company as the first passenger of trial flight from New Jersey to Phoenix of the 4O-passenger machine which will be used in the PhoeniX-G Globe service.
 Our company will be financed in- side of thirty days" declared Hill to- day, 'and our aerial stage service will be in operation before the first of May.

SERVICE WILL MAKE FIVE YEAR
 GRAZING PERMITS
Amendment to Grazing Regulations by the Secretary of Agriculture.

Albuquerque, N. M., Jan. 27 In order to make plans for the granting of five-year grazing permits on the National Forests of New Mexico and Arizona Assistant District Foresters Chapman and Kerr have returned to Albuquerque after consulting all the Forest Supervisors of the two states. The meetings were held at Phoenix, Williams and = Holbrook, Arizona; Santa Fe and Socorro, New Mexico; and Fl Paso, Texas.
 The authority for granting five-year permits on the national Forests is based upon recent amendmen9 mad , in the grazing regulations by the Sec retary of Agriculture. It is planned to issue this class of permits on all the Arizona and New Mexico Forests The only exception to this rule being parts of Forests where the range is overgrazed, or where it is necessary to mae reductions in the number of stock now occupying the range as a means of stopping damage to repro duction
 Yn working out the five-year permit plan, the plan was also adopted for granting annual permits on parts of Forests on which it was not deemed advisable to issue five-year permits and where permittees are not in a position to qualify for such permits. It will be left optional with stockmen who can qualify for five-year permits as to whether they desire five-year permit or wish to continue grazing under annual permit.
 As a means of increasing meat pro- duction during the period of the war. l the Forest Service allowed consider able increases in the number of stock on some of the Forests in New Mex ico and Arizona, which, according to grazing specialists, has resulted in overstocking some of the ranges. It is planned as rapidly as possible to return the Forest ranges to the ex- cellent condition they were in prior to the recent drouth and at the time to make some reductions in stock in order to do this, according to Forest l OSINlCS OlHCldlS, lHC e1lhOuht Oi reductions that must be made will de- pend largely upon the manner in which the stockmen handle the range It is~-believed that with improved methods of handling stock and the construction of some range improve ments, the Forests may be able to carry practically all of the stock now being grazed
 In handling the Forest grazing prob lems which may come up from time to time, it is planned to cooperate with the stock associations of New Mexico and Arizona. Twenty-Five oi these associations have been recogniz
 ed by the Forest Service, and theil advice is sought in the management
 of grazing. -...-
