That the Republican party in Min- nesota is progressive is again indicat- ed by its position and achievements on the vital question of conservation. Our platform specifically commits the -party to the conservation of resources “along the lines suggested by Theo- dore Roosevelt and begun by him dur- ing his admijnistration.” Minnesota is At the RIGHT time recognized by all the states in the Union as first and most progressive as Of the RIGHT kind well as most practical in the line ‘of 3 achievements. - The continuation of Always gives our Custom- {| us conservation work is the most ers the RIGHT quality important problem now confronting the people of the state, for it includes not only the conservation of natural but also of human resouarces. It in- cludes such preservation of our re- sources for the future as will not in- terfere with the p1oper use thereof for the present. It fcllows necessarily that any theory of conservation which does not provide for the present ag well as the future does not cover the entire field and connot possibly bring Call us up RIGHT now Your order-will be deliv- ered all RIGHT Our Phone is 52 the: best results.

The beneficial results of this gathering are matters of recent history in the in- creased appreciation by the people of the “state: of its vast resources and in the widely spread attention these advantages have attracted throughout the entire country. Following this | state meeting as a natural sequence came the holding in St. Paul of the Second National Conservation con- gress, which marked an epoch in the prozress of this nation-wide move: ment. N Reapportianment. 'The Republican party is pledged to a new apportionment of the legislative districts in accordance with the con- stitution. - The plank is as follows: “Believing that each and every sec- tion of the state should be fairly rep- resented in the law-making bodies, as is provided in Section 2, Article 4, the constitution, we pledge the Re- publican party to the passage of an apportionment law by the next legis- lature based on population, as shown by the United States census for 1910, to take effect on or before Jan. 1, 1912, that will give to each county the GOVERNOR EBERHART. representation it is justly entitled to in both branches of the state legis- lature.” A clean, unambiguous statement and pledge. Listen to: the Democratic plank: “We are unequivocally in favor of a reapportionment “of representation in the state legislature with a view of making the composition of that body a _true reflection - of-the distribution of " pépilation.”” " In other words the Democratic party 18 unequivocally in favor of a very equivocal declaration touching reap- portionment. Its meaning, whatever it may be, is lost in the phraseology of studied concealment. The ambigu: ity in the Democratic platform is ex: plained by the attitude of the Demo- cratic members of the state senate. At the last session, Senator Clague, as chairman of the committee on reap- portionment, on March 26, 1909, intro- duced S. F. 714, for a new apportion- | ment. On a roll call every Democratic senator present, eighteen, voted against reapportionment. Had they voted in favor of the bill, it would have passed and the state would now have a fair legislative apportionment. 8hall exert every effort to guard-the I find no fault with these senators for voting their convictions on this or any bill, but the fact is that they were op- posed to the bill and presumably had something to do with the framing of the Democratic platform. My oppo- nent intimates that the failure of re- apportionment at the last session is chargeable to the Republicans. The record- shows ‘the contrary to be true Primary: Law. ‘Under the present primary law many abuses are permitted: I quote from the Republican state platform: “It has become notorious that the great expense attendant upon primary election practically precludes men of moderate means from becoming can- didates for important offices, and it has beccwe a common thing for vot- ers to vote for and help to secure the nomination ‘of men- of opposite politi- cal faith, for whom they do not intend to vote at the election, and we de clare that legislation is imperatively needed that will reduce the expense of conducting a primary campaign and to prevent voters from alding in the nomination of candidates that ‘they are seeking to defeat.” I am strongly in favor of amending the primary system of nomination in accordance with the platform, and also ‘heartily favor the election of United States senators by popular vote. The Problem of Transportation. One of the most important prob- lems before the people of the state is that of transportation. The Demo- cratic platform is absolutely silent on that vital question. On the other hand the Republican party has placed itselt on record with reference to the regulation and control of railway,:tel- egraph and telephone companies 'in. the: clearest and strongest terms. I quote from the platform: *We assert the right of national and state regulation and control over all transportation companies, whether of the: people, commodities or messages; declare that all such companies are entitled to charge rates that will yield a fair profit on actual investment, meeting all actual expenses, including liberal wages for all employes, provide tor deterioration, lay by a reasonable sinking fund ‘and no more, and that the nation and state, each within its respective jurisdiction, should see that ‘such rates ate maintained and that no discrimination is allowed to be prac: ticed beétween findividudls and locali- stand without reservation and tarough the .legal department of the state I interests of the people in all the 8o called Minnesota rate cases now pend- ing before the courts.
