It re- quires jitney companies to get 1li- censes from the city councils, and these licenses must preseribe the length of the franchises, the streets that may be used, the fare to be charged, the schedule of cars, ete. Jitney companies must give bonds to insure responsibility for accidents. County Option Wins. Speaking of county option, the Du- luth Herald says: In spite of sev- eral confident predictions to the con- trary, county option has passed the Minnesota legislature, and the pros- peets are that it will become a law, in spite of the amendments to the bill made by the house. There is really .only one important factor in the bill, and that is the fact of county option in itself. The house extended the time which liquor men may have to dispose of their stocks, but that -amendment does hot go to the heart of the question. 3 ‘While the county option question was. mare or less of an issue in the campaign which ended with the elec- tion of the present legislature, there ..were -several members who had no deflnite instructions from their dis- r2: triets-as to.how they should vote on the question. This situation leaves some room for reasonable doubt as ta:whether county option is actually idesired by a majority of the voters of the state. - At the same time there <wSeems.no room to doubt that a ma- 2. jority of the legislators—even though it.be.by but a small margin—inter- pret the sentiment in their districts -:5.a8 being favorable to such a law, and At 48 the views of the legislators that odetermine the issue. As to the effect of the-.operation «of the law there still is room for two opinions—or perhaps even more than ~that.. The Herald has never been in c«favor:of the.county option plan, be- :svdleving it an.infringement .on home <.rule. .It can readily be seen how the law would work out in a county where there is a city opposed to the .. abolition of the saloons and where the country districts favor prohibi- tion. If the country districts cast a . -controlling vote, the city would have .-to go dry willy-nilly; and experience has proved that in such case the law _would be. little if anything . more ..than a farce. Or.the city. might vote “‘dry” and the country districts cast a controlling vote on the “wet” side. However, the prospects are that we will have an apportunity to see the law. in active operation in many coun- ties. in Minnesota, and so to study it_at close range. . In. any event, the . legislature is to be congratulated, on getting rid of .a vexing. question so | early in the session.

Tran- —— Notwithstanding the attitude of the-public in not taking the respon- sibility of voting on constitutional amendments they do not- understand, the legislature is being flooded with more amendments.
