OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS THE ERA OF GOOD FEELING Doubtless the return to normalcy will have among its hest effects a quieting of much erratic talk. There is already a no- ticeable slackening of tense nerves and a tendency to believe 4 the better report. E It is announced from Washington that the department of . justice is to subside into the background. This in itself will do much to allay the feverish condition'of the public consciousness. The bolshevik bogy will disappear. The “red revolution” will no longer be discussed as an imminent possibility. The last, low mutterings of the war storm seem about to die away below the horizon. Tt is also encouraging to note that at this moment when conservatism appears the dominant factor, certain employing interests are prompted to make concessions to their employes Wwhich could not be wrung from them during the period of storm and stress. Somewhat more than a year ago the United States Steel corporation successfully withstood a strike in the ranks . of its workers. Recently Judge Elbert H. Gary, chairman of . the board of directors of that company, made the following an- nouncement: “We have today been in consultation with presidents of| subsidiary companies, who compose the special committee here- tofore appointed to consider the 12-hour day question. The members of the committee have not reached a conclusion which is entirely satisfactory to all of them with respect to some of the features involved, and therefore have not made nor are pre- pared to make a report.

The call of an election in which the employes will choose representatives was indicated as the first step in this direction. If a revival of commercial prosperity shall bring with it the establishment of industrial peace, the Harding administration will go down in history as the great era of good feeling. ¥k ; LEGISLATIVE ACTIVITIES flmahsenate committee on agriculture is on record as favor-| tig'a high protective tariff on farm products, and has passed a! memorial to ¢ongress to put a tariff on starch and other potato products as soon #s possible, Without a dissenfing vote, the senate passed the house bill making the South St. Paul Livestock exchange an open market. The house bill to abolish the trading in futures in grain has been. recommended for passage by the senate committee on agriculture. It was placed on general orders, along with the bill to make grain exchanges open markets, and will get early consideration by the senate. An effort is being made by, the socalled “Minnesota tax conference” to secure the resubmission to popular vote of the ‘amendment to the state constitution which was voted down last fall providing for a state income tax. The house committee on taxation has decided to report favorably a bill providing for a division of personal tax pay- ments—one-half on March 1 and one-half on September 1.
