Do the People Cut no Figure? The governor has given out a state- ment to the effect that he does not " intend to call an extra session of the legislature. We never expected he would call it; the big interests don’t want it, and the people cut no fig- ure.—Holt Northern Light. What the Senator Needs. Apropos of the letter written by State Senator B. N. Anderson to the Bemidji Pioneer, will the Pioneer im- mediately forward to the senator a copy of the best speller and the first book in grammar, charging same to The Times. Are there any more?— Cass Lake Times. Thinks It Sounds Strange. The next meeting of the Northern Minnesota Development association meets in St. Cloud December 8th and 9th and a good program is being ar- ranged. It is said that Governor Eb- erhart has advised the committee he cannot be present. Strange, isn’t it?—LaPorte News. May Burn His Ears. - Governor Eberhart will certainly find himself in a hot atmosphere if he does happen to turn up at the St. Cloud meeting of the Northern Min- nesota Development association. We opine that the heat of that conven- tion will be sufficient to cause the governor’s ears to burn, even though he be hundreds of miles away from it.—Middle River Pioneer. Never So Much Flagellation. Never in the history of the state has any governor received so much flagellation at the hands of the press as Governor Eberhart is receiving at present. Unless all signs fail he will not be in the running at the next re- publican state convention. That is, unless the big interests absolutely control the convention, as they have in some former instances.—Middle River Pioneer. “Postpone It” Suggestion. Governor Eberhart will not attend the Northern Minnesota Development association meeting in St. Cloud on Dec. 8. Instead, he will leave on Nov. 27, on the governor’s special, with the chief executives of ten oth- er states, making a tour of the east. All of which graphically portrays the governor’s interest in development of Minnesota. It seems almost practical to postpone the St. Cloud meeting un- til he returns from the eastern tour, giving him a chance to attend.— Thief River Falls Times. Reapportionment Held First. A full delegation will attend the Development meeting in St. Cloud, Dec. 8th from Roseau county. . This| meeting is going to be important. The Development association has a well defined program of activities which it follows out in the interest of the people. The good work must go on, roads must be built, settlers must be brought in and’ conditions made inviting for them. But above all the association gtands for a just|’ state " worth ' $350,000,000 which lul legislative reapportionment,: * and Sees the Beast in the Jungle. The objection some folks are put- ting up against having the extra ses- sion considered at the Development account of it smacking of politics” have certainly gone a long ways to enemy. 1In'the face of conditions ni one could be blamed if it was made the biggest political gathering ever witnessed in the state.—Pine River Sentinel. This From the “Pledge” City. that he believes that there will be no object in calling an extra session of the present legislature for the pur- pose of raising the railroad tax. The governor should not have been so hasty in declaring his allegiance. to the northern part of the state, if there was a doubt in his mind, Be- sides it is the people of the state that he is serving, or should be serving, they are clamoring for an extra ses- sion. ~ Governor Eberhart evidently has a-mistaken idea-of who he is rep- resenting.—Brainerd Journal. Doubts the Governor’s Wisdom. Governor Eberhart has stated to the public that he would not call an did not “believe in holding an extra session of the legislature because an increase in railroad taxes will not help the people and because the leg- islature wouldn’t provide reappor- tionment.” According to this state- ment it seems as though the gover- nor thinks the members of the legis- lature would cause the railroad rates all over the state is in favor of an extra session and they undoubtedly know the views of their erpresenta- Thinks He is in Predicament. Governor Eberhart now gives it out cold that the report which is be- ing circulated by northern Minnesota newspapers in regard to what he said at the Brainerd convention last year, is mostly a myth, and claims he used the words, “If reapportionment is slighted he might call an extra ses-~ sion.” Let the governor get out of. the predicament if he can. If he can clear up this little difficulty he will indeed be a Magnus Apollo. Let him quit quibbling about myths and come directly to the words he used at the Brainerd convention, because if he Minnesotans, who saw and heard him at the time, will and are still giving him credit for using the words as or- iginally published throughout the north.—Gonvick Banner. Yearns to See Him Do It. A square deal is all that the peo- ple are asking of Governor Eberhart, and it will be a rank injustice to them if he refuses to listen to their requests for fair representation and fair taxation of the railroads. He has an opportunity to benefit thou- sands upon thousands of Minnesota residents—to do something big and worth” while—and we hope he does it;, regardless of any inducements the special interests have to affer. He has one grand chance to show that he is big enough to be governor: of Minnesota. Call an extra session, Eberhart, and show the people that you are not a creature of the inter- ests. Do simple justice to the people who trusted you to such an extent as to place you in the high office which you occupy.—Baudette Re- gion. Promise or No Promise. The' general demand for an extra session of the legislature has spread all over Northern Minnesota and over vast tracts of the central and south- ern part of the state. But the Gover- nor refuses to call it. He bases his refusal on, that he did not promise to call an extra session at the Brain- erd meeting. i It is true that he did not promise it edfinitely. He said that if the leg- islature should fail to pass reappor- tionment, that he might find himself compelled to call an extra session. But that is or ought to be a minor point.. The question itself is of vast- er importance than a mere political promise. It behooves the Governor of Minnesota to act with dignity and consideration, and how he can jus- tify his neglect to listen to the peo- ple’s voice when that voice calls for simple. justice, is more than we can see.—Bagley Clearwater Crystal. Shame! Governor- Eberhart is reported-as saying in St. Paul. Wednesday" that: he does not believe in holding an ex- tra session of the legislature, because (1) an increase in railroad taxes will not help. the people and because (2) the legislature wouldn’t provide re- apportionment if ‘it were summoned together. 3 The Herald~ challenges both - of those statements, and it believes that every citizen in -the state who is more. interested in the welfare of the state ‘and its people than he is in the security of the arrogant spec- ial ‘interests that rule this state also will-challenge them. ¥ There fs railroad property in'tHis there is no intertion on the part ofj meeting at St. Cloud next month “on bring up something in an attempt to} 0 stave off a growing dislike for ‘the manner in which the common peo-| 0 | ple are being “milked” by a commor and there is not a question but what| extra session of the legislature as he | fails to do so, hundreds of northeérn | lying only half as much taxi ht to pay. . 3 Does the goverror wish to stand on the proposition that it will be of no benefit to the people of this state, to ‘the owners of farm lands, homes, fac- tories, banks-and business enterprise 0 are paying more than. ‘their re of taxes because the railroad re paying less than_their share, to [increase railroad taxes, so that the lroads shall assume their fair share of the burden? iy Does’ the governor: wish -to-stand ‘on the proposition that it will be of 10 benefit to the people who are pay- inig a 3-cent passenger fare while ev- state around pays less; to make a fight against the arrogance.of the iTallroads in raising their freight and passenger rates without waiting for the final decision in the rate cases? | ~Does the governor wish to go be- fore the people at the next election the friends of that measure to allow any othet igsues to overshadow it at this time.—G.

His Future. Little Wimpleton had worked his courage up to boiling point. And-he told the old, old story to the fair one of his heart. To his delight the maid reciprocated his affections. There was only one stumbling block, the .girl’s-| prim, proper and precise mamma, of whom little Wimpleton stood in great awe, “I love you,” said the maiden, “but you must ask mamma.” So little Wimpleton did. “Abhem! Mrs. Doddles,” he said, flushing like a beet. “I have come to inquire—I -have come to ask—er— ahem!—er—what would you say to me as a son-in-law?” “Why, Mr. Wimpleton,” said the lady, “I really don’t know.
