The Senate on Trial
In former sessions of the legis-
lature the senate had been in the
habit of passing the buck" to the
lower branch on many of the con-
troversial measures, aside from
appropriations, which must orig
mate in the house. This session
the liberals in power in the house
are laying bill after bill in the
laps of the senators. If such bills
are good for the people of Mime
sofa as whole, they are given
the proper consideration, but if
they are tainted with any of the
principles of the cooperative
commonwealth" they are knocked
down with little debate. Mime
sofa is still safe: Thanks to the
senate. s... ..
Where are the Administration
Leaders?
Administration forces do not
hesitate to admit that the leader
ship in this session is far below
par even though they are in con-
troll of the house by large mar
gin. 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 administration.
The Inhhv is Cominp
The legislators have had little
or no trouble this session as far as
pickets are concerned. Of course
the lobbyists are with them with
out badges or other marks of
identification. But it won't be for,
long, in that notice has been ser
we'd on them that the peoples
Lobby has sent out a call for ac-
ton. 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 gather in st.
Paul Sunday, April 4, for large
meeting, and will remain over un-
til Monday, when they will drive
on the capitol and present the
peoples demands. The boys be-
hind the movement do not take
kindly to the senate's killing of
the 44-hour week bill for women
in industry. nor its cutting the
seed loan bill from a small figure
of two million to SIS, The
truth of the matter is, that it is
only a blind, for it is generally
known through the corridors that
some of the liberals have been off
the reservation on some of Cover
nor Benson's pet bills and pres
sure is being used to bring them
back into line for the balance of
the session.
April 22 is Dead Line
A ruling from the attorney
general sets the final day of the
present session as April %. This
should worry somebody. Up to
last Saturday i,462 bills had been
introduced in the house and an
average of 80 is coming in each
day. Very little legislation of
importance has been enacted.

Pioneer Tells How
Hector Was Named

J. B. Tweet, pioneer resident of
Franklin, has disclosed how the
village of Hector was named. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Tweet, Hector was
a small trading center and far
mers from the vicinity of what
is now Franklin did their trading
there.
From Franklin to Hector was
a days drive with a yoke of oxen.
Arriving there the Scandinav-
ians would resign themselves to
camp overnight and would say,
"Vel vi kan likesovel hekt or"
Literally translated this means:
"Wel we may as well unhitch."
Eventually the trading post
came to be called the unhitchfng
place. "Hekt Or" and finally was
reduced to Hector"

CAR USED IN
MAD DASH TO
CATCH TEAM

A. A. Sebring, owner of the
Redwood Auto Wrecking COM
pany, employed modern means to
stop an old-fashioned runaway
Thursday afternoon.
A team of horses standing on
the paving outside the place,
which is located across the street
from the Fltger warehouse, was
frightened when a truck drove
toward them. They started down
the street at a fast gallop, drag
ging a wagon behind them.
Sebring jumped into his car
with the teams owner and sped
after the horses. At the hospital
where the automobile caught up
with them, the owner jumped out
and stopped the runaway.
The automobile took a slower
trip back to the wrecking estab-
lishment, as the farmer got out
to pick up groceries and cream
can which had been spilled along
the course.

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 taxpayer.
Nineteen bills were on special
orders when the session il opened
last Friday afternoon and an eff
fort was being made to delay
adding more to the list until such
time as the legislators catch up.
1t is mighty doubtful if 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 control of the
house. Assertions were made
long before the house convened
that there would be no last-min-
ute rush in this session. Judging
from the progress at this late date
there will be a bigger jam than
at any previous session.
q Heavy Lays The Crown
Although less than three months
have elapsed since Governor Ell
mer Benson's inaugural, there are
rumblings of dissatisfaction in his
own and other camps. 1t is gen.
orally known that he falls far
short of the late Governor Olson
as leader, and as for his in
fuence 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
real ,ringmaster and seldom did
his followers fail to respond when
he cracked the whip.

Legislator Refutes
Farm Bureau Charge
Against House Bill

j. j. Leipzig, director of the
Carlton county Farm Bureau, de-
clared in a speech over WTCN
Saturday, "the Farm Bureau is
exerting an unfair and undemo-
cratic power in its present privil-
eyed position with regard to the
county extension work and the
county agents."
For that reason he favors the
Agricultural Extension bill now
before the legislature, and he de-
clares that every farmer in Min
neSota who wanted to see fair
play and equality among all farm
organizations should support the
bill.
Would it be reasonable and
just to allow business corpora
ton, let us say the steel trust, to
have the power of control over
employees of the University, such
as professors or .deans?" MIR.
Leipzig asked. He charged that
the Farm Bureau has just such
power now, over the county
agents who are employees of the
college of agriculture, because the
county extension committees of
seven having charge of the coun-
ty program, must include four
members of the county Farm
Bureau. Moreover, he said, the
bureau has a great influence on
the county agent because it may
give or take from him the funds
which it is permitted by law to
donate to defray expenses of his
office"
Mr.. Leipzig asserted that the
reasons SO far advanced by the
Farm Bureau, in weekly papers
all over the state last week, were
misleading and covered up the
real reasons why the Farm Bur-
eau is fighting the bill.
"In the first place." said Mr..
Leipzig, "the bill would not des-
troy the extension service or the
work of the county agent, but
would improve both, because it
would provide co-ordinated plan
ming and supervision and demo-
cratic control. The planning and
supervision of the state program
would be under the three depart
ments which now have separate
and distinct services which often
overlap and even conflict under
the present system; that is, the
college of agriculture. the depart
ment Of education and the depart
ment of agriculture.
In other states where the ex-
tension service and the Farm
Bureau have been separated the
service has been improved, be-
cause all farmers, regardless of
political or farm organization af-
filiation, have been willing to
work with it and for it. In this
state the Farm Bureau officers
have hurt their cause by actively
entering partisan politics, Mr..
Leipzig said.
The charge that the bill will put
the county agent into politics is
absurd, declared Mr.. Leipzig, be-
cause he is already in the politics
of agricultural factions, one of
which, the Farm Bureau, occupies
a preferred position under the
law. The extension service should
be freed from that influence, he
said. The county agent would
then be the servant of all the far
mers of the county, rather than
that small minority which now, in
most counties, constitute the
Farm Bureau.
Mr.. Leipzig also declared that
one of the main reasons he was
supporting the bill was that it
would help the Farm Bureau it
self. After many years of partici-
patton, in Farm Bureau work, he
had come to the conclusion that
divorce of the Farm Bureau and
the extension service would be to
the advantage and benefit of both.

EZio PIMA Elisabeth Rethberg
was much of lyric beauty and deli
cacy of touch manifested in the
piece. Her command of technique
in fast passages, trills and double
stops performed with ease, con-
spired to make a fascinating per-
formance.
Her manner Of handling the
Hungarian Gypsy piece, "Tzi-
gane," by Ravel, might be termed
as a chamber rendition of work
that, by nature, one would expect
to be delivered with plenty of
dramatic fire and brilliance. This
miniature-toned re ding was
played with beautiful tones and
sure touch, but the emotional vol
ume and abandon characteristic
of such works was subdued.
DR.. Kinder seemed to be in a
particularly good humor as evi-
denced in his treatment Of DukaS'
''The Sorcerer'S Apprentice. From
the isolated gruntS Of the bassoon
to the powerful voicing Of the con-
fusion resulting from the actions
of the apprentice in the story, each
situation was handled with subtle
humor which was most pleasing to
the audience.
The group of short incidental
numbers from Bizet's "L'Arlesi-
enne," furnished gay and popular
ending for the concert, so popular
in fact, that DR.. Kinder repeated
the Tempo di Fandango.
Elisabeth Rethberg, soprano,
and Ezio Pima, basSo, will make
their first joint appearance in
Washington tomorrow night at
$50 o'clock in Constitution Hall.
Their program will include works
by Mozart. Handel, Schubert,
Strauss and others. The joint re-
cital will consist largely of solos,
but two duets will be sung: LA ci
darem la mano," from Don Clio

low" duet from "Mignon"
(ThomaS).
