The Senate On Trial
In former sessions of the legisla-
ture the senate has been in the ha-
bit of passing the buck" to the
lower branch on many Of the con-
troversial measures, aside from ap.
preparations, which must originate
in the house. This session the liber-
ais in power in the house are lay
ing bill after bill in the laps of the
senators. II such bills are good for
the people Of Minnesota as
whole, they are given the proper
consideration, but If they are faint
ed with any Of the principles Of the
cooperative commonwealth" they
are knocked down with little de-
bate. Minnesota Is still safe.
Thanks to the senate.
Where Are The Administration
Leaders7
Administration forces do not hes
ftate to admit that the leadership
in this session is far below par
even though they are in control of
the house by a large margin.
Speaker Harold Barker is filling
the bill in fine shape, but he is not
getting the leadership from the
floor that is necessary to put over
the measures advocated by the adj
ministration.
Irish Have Their Day
The rush Of legislative matters
In both houses was halted on St
Patrick's Day in order to allow the
sprinkling Of Irish in both bodies
to have their day. The senate
claims eight tried and true follow.
ers Of st. Pat and the house has
about fifteen sons Of the Emerald
Isle. Judge Mark Nolan, former
representative from the range
country, was present to uphold his
nationality at the house session.
The Judge was a popular legislator
and his leadership could be used
to mighty good advantage in the
lower branch at this particular
session.
The Lobby Is Coming
The legislators have had little or
no trouble this session as far as
picketS are concerned. or course
the lobbyists are with them with
out badges or other marks Of iden-
tification. But it won't be for long,
in that notice has been served on
them that the Peoples Lobby" has
sent out a call for action. John
Bosch Is chairman Of the executive
committee, and that naturally calls
for a rallying OF the forces that
travel down his alley. According to
the call the Bosch forces will ga
Their in st. Paul on Sunday, April
4th, for a large meeting, and will
remain over until Monday, when
they will drive on the capitol and
present the peoples demands. The
boys behind the movement do net
take kindly to the senate's killing
of the 44-hour week bill for wom-

HIGHWAY n
UP FOR DISCUSSION
Meeting To Urge Improvement Or
This Road To Be Held At
Wadena March 81

Through the efforts of the local
Community Club, cities along High
way n, are making a concerted
effort to have this popular cross
country highway improved. Run
ming from New Orleans to Inter
national Falls 1t has become a main
thoroughfare. Special attention is
being directed to the stretch OF
road south OF Sank Centre to Bel
grade, and also a stretch in the
vicinity Of Window.
A good roads meeting called TO,
the discussion of improvements on
Highway II will be held in Wadena
Wednesday, March 31st. The pro
gram will open at 1:30 p. m, in the
Wadena Memorial Auditorium

this city, as members Of the Com

en- In industry, nor It's cutting the
Seed Loan bdll from q small figure
Of 2 million to $75,OO0.0O The truth
Of the mater II, that 1t Is only a
blind, for It Is generally known
through the corridors that some Of
the aiberals have been off the res
ervafion on some Of Governor
Benson's pet bills and pressure Is
being used TO bring them back into
line for the balance Of the session.
April END Is Dead Line
A ruling from the attorney gen.
eral sets the final day OF the pre-
sent session as April 22nd. This
should worry somebody. Up to last
Saturday .1,462 bills had been intro
duced dn the house and an average
Of 80 is coming in each day. Very
little legislation Of Importance has
been enacted. True there Is the
seed loan and the emergency relief
bills, but they only add to the tax
burden and do nothing for that
much talked Of relief to the tax
payer.
Nineteen bills were on special or
ders when the session opened last
Friday afternoon and an effort was
being made to delay adding more
to the list until such time as the
legislators catch up. It Is mighty
doubtful IL the house will ever
reach general orders again during
this session. But why worry, there's
that special session in the offing.
The present set-up does not speak
so well for the liberal group in con-
troll of the house. Assertions were
made long before the house con.
vened that there would be no last
minute rush in this session. Judg-
ing from the progress at this late
date there will be a bigger jam
than at any previous session.
Heavy Lays The Crown
Although less than three months
have elapsed since Governor Elmer
Benson's inaugural, there are
rumblings OF dissatisfaction in his
own and other camps. It Is gen.
orally known that he falls far
short Of the late Governor Olson
as leader, and as for his in
fluence with the liberal members
Of the house Of representatives,
the votes OF the past ten days are
proof that he can't keep the boys
In line. Governor Olson was a real
ringmaster and seldom did his fol-
lowers fail to respond when he
cracked the whip.

commissioner, or one Of his repre-
sentatives.
1t is imperative that every good
roads organization in communities
along Highway II, as well as repre-
sentatives Of these communities be
present. For 1t is fact that as long
as these bad spots exist on High
way n, 1t can be expected that
tourists will be routed over other
Highways.

persons, any of whom might be con-

maintenance of an action of this kind.
The first category includes any or all
attorneys who happen to have at the
present time or at any time during
Mr.. Blacks incumbency case pending

The second group would be any duly

seeing that the letter as we'll as the

bench of the land of a man who is
plainly ineligible by the words of the
Constitution itself to become a Su-

Black was elected would have expired.
The third group or party is the Sen

employment At the same time the
administration would have In the
Treasury q smaller amount Of re-
turns from taxation to take care OF
unemployment.
More Borrowing!
II, next year, there is increase Of
unemployment, and at the same time
smaller returns from taxation, then
the probable recourse Is more borrow
ing by the Government. More borrow
ing by the Government would be
universally regarded as q new step
toward imitation, for Government bor-
rowing is the principal cause OF
imitation. The predicters OF imitation
may be justified yet.
In this whole field are MANY
unknown factors and some new factors.
Some Of the new factors are the most
unknown Of all. One large new fac
tor is Government management of
money, credit and related conditions.
The Government management is not
complete as yet, but it goes far. Man.
agement by government is manage
ment by men-in our case largely
management by one man, President
Roosevelt. What Mr.. Roosevelt, in his
wisdom, might do, no one can tell.
We cannot tell what he might do
either in his wisdom or in his un-
wisdom. When We have management
by men, planned economy" so called,
we must take the unwisdom OF men
along with their wisdom. That Mr..
Roosevelt can make mistakes, even
mistakes against his own political
interest, is rather conspicuously illus
trated just now by his appointment
OF Mr.. Black to be a justice OF the
Supreme Court.
In the field Of money and credit,
a possible future step which would
work against imitation, and toward
wholesomeness, would be to increase
the quantity Of money coming into
the Treasury from taxation. To do
this would mean to raise existing rates
as lar as is practicable, and also to
levy new income taxes on persons
not now required to pay them.
Whether this would be done by the
administration in the coming session
OF Congress. with a congressional elec-
ton just ahead, is for any one to
surmise.
