WHAT OTHERS SAY |

Foley Independent: In every organi-
zation where large groups of people
are thrown together it becomes neces-
sary sooner or later to make rules
interfering with the activities of all
because few are almost sure to abuse
the privileges they may have. This
was very noticeable in the army, where
the rules and regulations applied to
every possible activity, even prescribing
what garments should or should not
be worn at certain times. The average
person, accustomed to conducting him
self in a reasonable manner. found
this situation almost intolerable, but it
had to be that way because past ex-
perience had taught those in charge
that few nincompoops would go out
of their way to make nuiSances of
themselves if there was any possible
chance to do so.
The new Civilian Conservation Corps
is no exception, and is getting started
early, according to accounts in news
north. In Ely several of the youths of
north. In Ely several 70 the youths of
the corps were given stiff Jail SEN
fences for disorderly conduct, and a
few of the group so abused public
property there that the city council
closed some of the public buildings
on the nights the boys were to be in
town. 1t is too bad that a minority
of nit-wits in any organization can
make it miserable for everybody, but it
seems to be true

that those representing the people have

constituents to the end that coopera-
ton, hard work and capability will
result in good governmental operation
and efficiency with resultant benefits
to the public.
1t is not always that our govern
mental agents are honest, or capable,
or industrious, and where the rare
combination of those virtues Is to be
found, it is not always that he is
allowed to pursue his duties as he
should by some of his constituents
with that amount of cooperation to
ing their county commissioners steer
our communities through this crisis, it
seems that there are still some among
us in northern st. Louis county, who
feel they can make private capital out
of public strife.
Several times during the past few
months examples of this interference
have cropped out, affecting practically
every one of the Range commissioners
and still more recently, the scene of
action shifted to the Fourth Com
miSSioner's district.
Jacob Pete of Ely has demonstrated
his sterling qualities as commissioner
and in all st. Louis county there has
never been so outstanding a public
minded man in the position which he
holds, notwithstanding the fact that
a few in Duluth could cruelty him for
refusing to give up into the hands of
others, those obligations entrusted into
his hands by the public, namely the
active control and management of
county road affairs.
Pete's roads are among the best in
the county. His policy with regard to
the distribution of relief work has not
merely been limited to his district, but
to the entire county-relief where it
was needed most.
His work of putting the county,
northern Minnesota and particularly
the Arrowhead Country on the map
speaks for itself. Under his guidance
the st. Louis County Club is becoming
a valuable economic organization in
our county. He is keenly alert TO the
possibilities of the recreational business
of our lake country and spends much
of his own time and money to advance
the welfare of that phase of the county.
We hope that the Fourth district
viii not become engrossed in the civil
war of politics in an Office where they
are being well represented by Mr.. Pete

entire county. That district and this
county needs Mr. Pete and more men

Duluth Weekly Herald: The Mime
sofa tax commission has just COM
pleted a survey of the tax reductions
made by the state and all its SUBJ
divisions last year, and while late it
gives an interesting idea of how
governing officials responded when they
first realized last year that taxes had
to be cut.
The school districts of the state
levied s4,679, 993 less than in 1881, the
townships s1,895 ISL less, counties ST.
569, 572, cities and villages 81 500, 689
and the state 81 ,374,86s less, a total tax
reduction for all units of 12,113, 974,
OF an average cut of 1905 per cent.
That twelve million dollars was a
good start, but it will seem smaller
when the figures showing the reduc-
tons that have been made in the
state this year are known. Many
counties and local communities have
been slashing expenses to an extent
they once thought impossible and the
total cut for 1898 will be large.
