IL GOVERNORS MESSAGE

Extreme though many Of the recommendations made
by Governor Frazier in his message are. they will occa-i
sion no surprise to those who have followed Mr.. Frazier's
career since his first venture into state politics a little
over two years. ago. At that time practically unknown
outside Of his own township. he owed his nomination to
no popular demand and no popular recognition of his
merits, but solely to the endorsement of the managers
Of the Nonpartisan leagues while the public had no
knowledge Of him, it was the general impression that he
would be a man Of some independence OF judgment. IN.
the light Of what has since transpired we must consider
his early forecasts and recommendations with reference
to matters of legislation and state policy to be, exceeding
ly moderate. The state was due for a sudden awaken
ing about the time Of the legislative session Of 1sl7, when
the governor. who had formerly advocated the approach
to state socialism in a gradual and experimental manner.
and through amendments to the state constitution adopt
ed in the usual manner, suddenly came out as the avow-
ed advocate Of economic policies more revolutionary and
political processes more drastic than had ever been pro
posed by the responsible head Of a state government in
our history. ~
The governors attitude now, as indicated in his
There is a little difference in phraseolosy, and some mat
tiers which were not then contemplated are treated in
the present message. But the recommendations made
fshow the governor at this time to be in entire accord with
the socialistic program such as is advocated in the north
west by Townley, Mills, Peterson. ct al. and elsewhere in
this country by Berger and his followers, to say nothing
of the activities of the socialistic group abroad.
While not specifically urged in words, there is inn
piled in the message the recommendation that the legis-
lature ratify the seven proposed constitutional amend
ments which were submitted last fall, two of which re-
ceived a majority Of all the votes cast at the election,
as provided by law, the others failing of this by several
hundred votes. each. Without the valuation of these
amendments some Of the more important of the present
recommendations could not be carried out, unless the
powers that be- have some other method, as yet unan-
nounced, of evading the constitution. without this the
proposed industrial commission would be without power,
for it could not proceed to the sale of bonds with which
to raise funds for the promotion of the state-owned en-.
terprises which are urged.
For the present the recommendations for some OF
the more important changes in educational and other
boards may be accepted as proposed methods whereby
the control of all these boards and the important duties
to be performed by them may rest securely in the hands
of the league committee in St. Paul, from which poin,
the state of North Dakota is now governed.
