Ballinger had done what it would have been more graceful for him to do, many months ago, namely, to re- sign from the cabinet. Mr. Ballinger may be a brainy man and possibly, under favorable condi- tions, would have been a valuable public servant. The chargesbrought against him by Gifford Pinchet, the proof of which was sufficient to con- vince the majority of persons, rend- ered further public: service by Secre- tary Ballinger undesirable. If he remained in office so that his “vin- dication” might be complete, he has an exaggerated idea of his own im- portance as compared to the welfare of his party and President Taft, who appointed him to the cabinet posi- tion. If Mr. Ballinger had been a big and broad minded man it seems to us he would have resigned long ago to save President Taft the embarrassment which the presence of Mr. Ballinger in the cabinet has meant for the chief executive. Looking at the matter in as chari~ table a light as possible, about the best that can be said of Richard Achilles is “good riddance.” Let us hope that the passing of Mr. Ballinger means an end of the fa- mous Ballinger-Pinchot controversy and that the welfare of ‘the govern- ment will be best served by his re- tirement, and that his successor will place the department of the interior once again upon a firm foundation. The decision of President Taft to name Walter L. Fisher, the Chicago traction expert, and vice president of the National Conservation Associa- tion, was a daring and altogether commendable act. Mr. Fisher is recognized as an ardent advocate of real conservation and his appoint- ment by President Taft seems to in- dicate that the president has a deep- er admiration for the policies and conduct of Gifford Pinchot than his persistent friendship for Ballinger has indicated. Altogether, the passing of Balling- er and the coming of Fisher is pleas- ant to contemplate and is one of the incidents going to show that Taft at last has struck his gait and after| floundering about for two years, he has concluded that it may be as well for him to be president in fact as well as in name. ; DOWNING THE WHITE PLAGUE. There can be scarcely any doubt but that Senator Sunberg’s bill, which proposes to give the state health of- ficers the names and other data of persons suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis, will be enacted into law by the present legislature: Senator Sunberg’s idea is that to properly combat the insidiously ac- | officers with ‘that information which information of ita progress s essen- tial: g The bill also confers on health of- ficials the power to report to county boards persons who are aftlicted with tuberculosis and are consideredito be a menace to their familles and to othiers. After a thorough' examina- ‘tion the fact’ that such a person is ‘within the.grip. of the disease, he can be compelled to go to a sanatorium and kept there at county expense. Another provision of the Sunberg measure is that no school teacher having consumption ‘shall” teach un- less she hag a certificate from a rep- utable physieian stating there is-no danger of communicating the disease. The same certificates..shall be re- quired from children homes consumption is known to exist. Senator Sunberg explains that it is his purpose to not only put up strong barriers against a spread of the disease.but to equip the ‘health in whose will place them in a proper position to combat cases already contracted: No one is so much interested 'in this: measure as the self-sacrificing persons who have devoted their ener- g;les in an effort to blot out the tuber- ular eurse. They realize that, at best, slow progress will be made, and that telling results only can be ac- complished by direct specific cases. ‘While some of the provisions .of the Sunberg bill might indicate a hardship to victims of the disease, it must be remembered that the pro- posed action of the state would be taken in the interests of the larger number and that, although to be torn away from home might seem un- Jjust, the life of the patient himself often demands just such action. Senator Sunberg’s untiring efforts in behalf of the people contain no more important move that his tuber- culosis measure. attention to QOO OOOVOOOOOOO® © WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY ¢ COOOOOOOCOOO0000 O News!

Equal to the Occasion. International Falls Press: C. W. Stanton opened the lar term of district last Tuesday at Bemidji. There are 10 criminal cases to go before the grand jury and 69 civil cases to be heard, 39 of which were carried over from last term. .This is quite a grist to grind, but the judge is equal to it.” Because the people were confident of this is the reason for the judge's elec- tion in a Republican district last November.—Duluth News Tribune. “Judge regu- court A Much Needed Law. A bill has been introduced in the senate that should pass by a unani- mous vote. It is the Willard bill and does away with the technicalli- ties in criminal cases, so that they will be tried on the facts and the omission of a dot over an “i” or the cross on a “t” will not be an excuse for an appeal. It will insure speedy trial, and thus save time and ex- pense. Justice is insured and techni- cality relegated to innocuous desue- tude. A law of that kind should have been enacted years ago.—Roch- ester Post and Record. What They Represent. It has-been computed that the sen- ators who voted against reapportion- ment in the test vote represent but one third of the population and one- third of the assessed valuation and amount of taxes paid.
