Would Compromise Be Wise? The institution of the state boar¢ of control was a great forward step in the system of state government That the board has vindicated its in- stitution, that it has proved its valuc and in every material sense has made good, is proving the most formidable obstacle to the inauguration of the efficiency and economy system, whict abolishes the board as a matter of principle, says the St. Paul Dispatch In the consideration of the new system, the theories of which arc sound to the core, the opposing in fluence of the board of control is pow erful and widespreading. This op- position is stronger and much more worthy than that which comes from the army of place holders who merely are fighting for their jobs, and justly is held as a menace to the adoption of the efficiency plan. Those who are foremost in advocacy and support of the new plan are un- willing to make in it any change which would seem to involve a sacri- fice of principle. It may come to & point, eventually, where they will be called upon to decide whether they will abandon any part of the plar or witness the defeat of the whole structure; whether it is the part of wisdom to conduct a losing fight for the plan in its entirety or to accept a half loaf for the purpose of the entering wedge of a modern system of state administration. ~ The suggestion has been made that a compromise that will install part of the new plan is better than a total loss at this time. It is a serious question and cannot be answered without mature consideration. The time will come when the affairs of Minnesota will be administered under improved and modernized methods and the problem is whether such a compromise would hasten or retard that time. The subject is, by all odds, the most important with whict the legislature has to deal.

Well, a part of it has been for many years, but it is gradually lifting itself out of that class by its bootstraps.. What with - opposition from the more populous sections, the prejudice against the iron and tim- ber sections and the untrue reports of soil, products, climate, ete., it has been-a hard task, but northern Min- nesota is “coming out of it,” and taking its proper place on the map. —Grand Rapids Independent. g ‘The passage of the Marschalk clear- ing bill'would put northern Minnesota a long way forward in the next few years. It would likely work out so that each. settler who comes in under the. law -will . bid .in and do his own clearing, in which case the money paid- him would be practically a loan at -low interest and. easy terms, to maintain him while’ he is doing the work. As.clearing is nearly all la- bor. the money spent would remain in the country and the land that is now idle.would: produce a good crop each year.—Warroad Pioneer. —— “We shall not have to wait for a general election before prosperity re- turns, and the only danger is that the: prosperity may become so great before November, 1916, that it may be.the. means of keeping the Demo- - cratic.party in power,” says the Walt Street--Journal.

P. White, president of the Northern National bank of Bemdji, | Minn. Mr. White, with other leading busi- ness men of this ecity, is continuing the agitation for one-cent letter pos- tage which was started several years ago, and which is being carried on in a very aggressive manner under the auspices of the National One Cent Letter Postage association, which has its headquarters at Cleveland. The organization, which has repre- sentatives in all the cities and towns throughout the United States is work- ing aggressively toward the securing of a lower rate on first class mail mat- ter, which includes all letters. “Business conditions, which are improving throughout the entire United States, would be further help- ed by a lowering of the present rate on first class mail matter,” declared Mr. White yesterday, while talk- ing in connection with the campaign for the lower postage rate. This campaign is being loyaliy supported by many business men in this city. “I have been astonished at some of the revelations which have been made in connection with the way the various classifications of mail are be- ing handled at Washington and the fact that business men generally are being unjustly taxed for the carrying of mail matter. At the present time the United States government is mak- ing a profit of over $70,000,000 per vear on first class mail matter, and at the same time it is losing more than that amount on second class mail. The postoffice statistics show that the letter mail neéts the govern- ment more than eighty cents per pound, or more than $1,600 a ton, while magazine mail is carried at the rate of one cent per pound or only $20 per ton. This is rank diserim- ination and poor business policy. ““Users of letter mail pay twice as much for the cost of the service as the government pays, and the maga- zine publishers at the same time are paying one-eighth the cost of the service, for it has been demonstrated on good authority that magazine pub- lishers’ mail, on which the mailing rate is one cent per pound really costs the government over eight cents a pound to deliver at its destination. “The United States postoffice de- partment is the biggest individual business enterprise in the world, and it-should follow im-the footsteps of ‘other big corporations in working out efficient business methods. No large manufacturing or mercantile estab- lishment would permit one depart- ment to pay double the cost of ser- vice and at the same time allow an- other department to pay one-eighth the cost of service. “This is primarily the reason that the campaign for one-cent letter post- age is being conducted throughout the United States.

No effort, how- ever, was made to analyze the general receipts and expenditures with a view to showing the real conditions as to first_and .second class mail and the amounts chargd, or the actual. cost to the government for. transporting it. “I wish to draw the attention of local business men to the diligent ef- forts which are .being put forth by the National One Cent Letter Post- age association to secure. this. much needed reform.. Only by co-opera- tion, through such an organization as this can such a reform be obtained, for the magazine publishers of this country are banded together to fight any effort which would mean the suppression of the immense subsidy now granted them each year. We feel that there is but one result that can come from the present campaign and that is the inauguration of a one-cent rate for all letter mail, and it will come just as soon as the business mea of this country'join heartily in de- manding it.” > KK KKK KKK KKK KKK i TENSTRIKE * AHK KK KK KKK KKK XY Mrs. J.
