The senate by a vote of 46 to IL
passed the bill increasing the state
board of control to four members
with the provision that one of these
members should be woman. In the
event of a tie the governor is to have
a vote. There is some question con-
corning the wisdom of passing such a
bill. Having an even number of men,
bers on this board and giving the
governor a chance to cast the deciding
vote on questions is liable to put the
control of the board partially in the
hands of politicians. Why not in
crease the membership of the board to
five or let some one of the three men
step down to make place for the
woman who is to be appointed? Gov
ernor Preus would undoubtedly be fair
in the use of his deciding vote but
there are other governors to follow
and, with all due respect to some of our
former chief state executives, we
think that some of them would not
have been above playing politics in
such matters.

Harvey's Weekly: The question Of
giving preference to veterans Of the
great war in the civil service is raised,
as it has formerly been raised over
the veterans of former wars, with
many-not all-of the soldiers plead
ing in the affirmative and the civil
service officials and reform association
largely arrayed in the modified mega
tive. Nobody should begrudgc giving
veterans the preference in appoint
ment to office when they are fully
as competent as any other candidates.
But it would not be found policy to
give an incompetent veteran a place
in preference to competent civilian.
It would be better to give him pen
sion outright instead. The proper
plan would be to credit veterans with
a certain number of points, or a GER
tain percentage, in competitive exami-
nation. on account Of their war ser
vice, such credit being proportional
to the length and character of such
service, and then to give them prefer
ence in appointment over all other who
had not higher rating. More than
that, we think, self-respectiAg soldiers
would not ask. More than that it
would not be for the public interest
to accord.

COOPERATIVE ENTERPRISES.

Last November a bitter campaign
was waged in this state. The nom
partisans advocated state owned termi-
nal elevators, warehouses, creameries
and cold storage plants. j. A. O.
Preus led the republican party in the
fight against this plan of state owner
ship, which he and his followers con-
sidercd socialistic. Mr.. Preus urged
the farmers to establish elevators and
warehouses and market their produce
through cooperative organizations.
The Union accorded Mr.. Preus en-
thusiastic support on this platform
and today we stand in exactly the
same position on this question as we
did lase November. At that time it
seemed as though the management of
mills and packing plants might prove
too big proposition for a co-opera-
tive organization and VIC are of that
,, opinion today. However there is no
apparent reason why the farmers
cannot successfully handle such CO.
Operative enterprises as the grain
market and potato exchange.
The farmers in the vicinity of
, Princeton are considering the advisa-
bility of establishing local, branch of
the Minnesota potato exchange.
Princeton is one of the largest primary
potato markets in the country and if
there is anything to this talk about
cooperative marketing organizations
it ought to be possible to successfully
operate potato exchange here.
Not all the farmers believe in the
cooperative marketing enterprises
and the private buyers would, OF
course, continue to do big business
even if an exchange were established
The Princeton Cooperative creamery
docs a good business and there are
also two or three private buyers on
the market.
