CONVENTION PLAN LOST
House Committee on Elections Votes
Indefinite Postponement.

st. Paul-An attempt to put the
state back On the old convention sys-
TEN of selecting candidates for state
offices was frustrated by the house
committee on elections. The commit
tee voted indefinite postponement for
the bill introduced by Representative
John H. Stevens of Minneapolis to re-
turn the state to the convention sys-
tenn.
While the bill did not apply to all
political officers in the state, it did
apply to the chief officers who are
elected by the people. Opponents saw
in the bill an attempt to drive an en-
tering wedge into the present state
political system, which might abolish
all primaries in the future.
The committee also decided to kill
the preferential voting bill introduced
by Representatives Cain, Stockwell,
Swenson, Moen and Teigen. The bill
was designed to give all political fac
tons in the state in equitable repre-
sentation in representative bodies.
The committee, however, felt that
such system would be too cumber-
some and voted to kill it.
The resolution, memorializing con-
gress to amend the present constitu-
ton to the effect that all future
amendments be submitted to the peo-
pie for direct vote was recommend
ed for passage by the house elections
committee. It. was introduced by Rep
resentative C.. A. Peterson.

INQUIRY OF ELECTION FRAUD
Senate Orders Investigation of Viola
tions of Corrupt Practice Act.

st. Paul-Republican leaders of the
Minnesota state senate recommended
for passage the resolution introduced
by Senator James A. Carley, providing
for a senate investigation of charges
of violations of the corrupt practices
act during the last campaign.
However before recommending the
resolution for passage, the leaders
struck out of the resolution provisions
for Investigating political party lead
ers, which action, If confirmed by the
senate, would limit the investigation
to state offices and state officials,
whom the resolution charges with
using taxpayers money and state en-
ployes for partisan political purposes.
In addition to striking out the part
of the resolution having to do with a
probe of party committees and lead
ers, the rules committee eliminated
from the resolution, before recon-
mending it for passage, the provision
naming seven senators, headed by
Carley, to make the investigation. In
place of these senators, the rules com
mittee inserted in the resolution a
clause to the effect that the investigat-
ing committee of seven should be ap-
pointed by Lieutenant Governor-Co.-
Inns, presiding officer of the senate.

ASK BANK DEPARTMENT AID
House Proposals Would Increase Fees
for State Examination.

ST. Paul-Two bills to bolster up the
state department of banking so that
it can give more efficient service were
introduced in the House of Represen-
tatives by the committee on banking.
One bill increases the fees which will
be charged state banks for examina,
ton of their accounts, the added re-
venue to be used for increased sal.
aries to present employees and the
hiring of additional examiners. The
increases in salaries are provided in
the second committee bill
One of the principal criticisms set
forth by bankers of the state, who ar"
gued against passage of a state bank
guaranty act, was the limitations on
the state superintendent of banks de-
partment in examining books of banks.
These two committee bills, it is be-
lieved, would remove much of the cri
ticism.

st. Paul-Lieutenant Governor Col.
Inns announced the committee of seven
senators who will investigate activities
Oh state political parties and state en-
ployes IN the recent election as pro.
Vided in the Carley resolution adopted
by the Senate.
The committee consists of: Sena.
tors c. H. Mackenzie, Gaylord, chair
man; A. ]. Furlow, Rochester; ]. A.
Carley, Plainview; Herman Schme-
chel, Fairfax; c. Rosenmeier, Little
Falls; A. j. Rockne, Zumbrota; H. L.
NORM, Duluth.
The committee is representatives of
seven divisions of the Senate. The
Craftsmanship given to Senator Mac
Kenzie places an Independent at the
head of the committee. Mr.. MacKen.
zie is new member. Senator Furlow,
although he had the Endorsement Of
the Farmer-Labor party, in. his cam.
paign, has not followed that party in
its activities in the Senate, and is
classed as an independent.
The strictly Farmer-Labor members
of the committee are Senators Schme'
chel and NORM. Senator Carley is a
progressive and avowedly opposed to-
the administration. He and Senator
Schmechel were on the committee
named by Senator Carley in the orig
inal resolution to carry on the linves-
tigation. Lieutenant Governor Collins
placed Senator Schmechel on the in.
vestigation committee since Senator
Schmechel was principally unopposed
in his campaign and would not be pre-.
JUDGED.

PROPOSED LEGISLATION.

Minnesota will not be permitted to
engage in development of state owned
waterpower without lengthy delibera-
ton on the part of the senate public
domain committee. They laid over
the bill proposing a constitutional
amendment to this effect, claiming
that it will require public hearings
and much consideration before they
report it out either with or without
recommendations
That the quail and crow cannot be
.lassed as songbirds, is the decision Of
the house committee on game and fish,
after consideration of bill to ex-
empt the former bird from the game
class by including it with the song
birds. More than one member argued
that the crow might just as reasonab-
ly be classified as a songster, and it
was decided to leave the quail on the
game list.
Roads leading to meandered lakes
and public waters will be established
opened and improved under provisions
of Representative c. E. Hulbert's bill,
passed out by the house game and fish
committee. 1t is aimed against pri-
vate clubs which lease or purchase all
lands surrounding these waters, bar
ring the public from access thereto.
The house has got into a jam on
bills earlier this session than hereto
fore. There are $50 bills on house
general orders waiting for action by
the committee of the whole before
they are placed on the calendar for
passage. AS the house committee Of
the whole does not meet every legis-
lative day, not more than rs bills go
through the committee of the whole
each week. At this rate bills now at
the bottom of general orders have
scant chance Of passing before the
session expires, unless made special
orders.
An additional Judge is provided for
the ninth judicial district, under terms
of a bill recommended for passage by
the senate judiciary committee. An
amendment requires this judge to hold
court at least 80 days each year in the
Eighth and 80 days each year in the
18th judicial districts. Although addi-
tional judges have been appointed in
other Districts, none has been provid-
cd in the past years In the ninth dis
.rict, including Nicollet, Brown, Red
wood. Lincoln and Lyon counties. The
wcrk has been SO greatly increased in
.his district
