THOSE who are sincerely anxious for the betterment of politics cannot fail to be discour- aged over the anomolous position occupied by the courts of this state. For several months past the supreme court of the state has been made a center of politi- cal interest by reason of the fact that one of the judges of the court was a candidate for governor, while at the same time exercis- ing his high judicial functions. Now comes the state bar associa- tion and resolves that nomina- tions for judicial positions shall be made under the old polifica] system rather than by a direct vote of the people. We. cannot believe shat these things are ap- proved of by the people of the “state. Courts of justice should be removed as far from political influences as possible and we must all regret that baclkward steps have been taken. The fault .18 a particularly grevious one be- canse committed by those who should be foremost in removing our courts and our judges from all political dependence. 7 e AN EXAMPLE. THE success of the ladies of Bemidji in establishing a_public library should be and isa strik- ing example of what Bemidji or any town is able to accomplish by united and persistent effort. Several ‘months ago Bemidji had no public library whatever. Tomght, a library ' containing a ___collection of nearly.1000-valuable books mstalled in pleasant quar- ters easily accessable to the peo- ple of the city will be opened to the public. This is the direct result of the organization of a -~ Woman’s Club in November of last year. An'auxillary branch of ‘the club was immediately or- ganized for the purpose of es- tablishing a public library and by earnest and persitent effoit the-desired result has—been ob- tained in a very short time. The ‘Woman’s Club has scored a great success and is in a position to render other services of great worth to the city. Opportunities of this kind are thick about Bemidji. What woman has done man Ray not be able to equal but he ought to come pretty near to it. Here’s hoping. ALBERT BERG is againa can- didate for representative from " Roseau county. Mr. Berg like - all strong men has a plenty of enemies and he will have to fight hard for the nomination. But if Roseau county wants a man at St. Paul who has influence in the councils of the state it will make haste to insure both his it ‘does its Collins thunder.
