fivW?JW{s^/-.v. ttVOR STAPLES FOB GOVERNOR MOVEMENT IS ON TO NOMINATE DAKOTA COUNTY MAN. i"j- Several Party Leaders Consider the Railroad Commissioner a logical Nomination Because of His Promi nent Part in Railroad Legislation, Which Will Be an Important Issue in the Elections Next Tear. A movement has been started in a quiet vr&y which has for its object the nomination of C. F. Staples for govern or. Some "prominent republicans who have been looking the field over have concluded that the railroad and -ware house commissioner would be a logical nomination next year. They are Bound ing sentiment somewhat to see how the suggestion takes. MAY MU SE LICENSE TO COMMISSIOHEN Attorney General E. T. Young has ruled that the railroad and warehouse comcussion may, for cauBe, refuse to grant a license to a commission mer chant. The law has for four years given the commission the right to re voke the license of a commission man fomd to have misused the trust of a cystomer, but there was nothing to pre vent the men whose license was re voked from turning around and taking cut a new license until the 1905 legis lature passed an act amending the old one. This the attorney general holds to be valid, but he finds that before the 1905 law was passed the commis sioners could not refuse to issue a lioense if the proper application and bond were filed. REPEAL NELSON LAW Congressman Steenerson Will Present Bill to That Effect. Congressman Halvor Steenerson of Crookston believes that the Nelson' bankruptcy law has done its service and should now be repealed. He says lie will introduce a bill at the next ses sion of congress to repeal the law. The Jaw served a good purpose, he says, but 4s now taken advantage of by unscru pulous persons to evade paying their honest debts.

InJbehalf of Staples it is urged that government regulation of railroad rates will be the main issue in the ,off year congressional "elections, andt*hat it would be wise to place at the head or the state ticket a man who stands tor the Eoosevelt proposition, an-d has Something to show or it. Minnesota now has one of the strong tt railroad rate laws in the country, and Staples is given a good deal of the credit for the legislation passed last winter. He is generally credited with the authorship of the bill increasing the commissioners' powers, which was introduced by the special committee and is now a law. It gives more power to the state commission than it has ever been proposed to confer on the inter state commerce commission. By next year this law will have been thoroly tested and if it benefits the Bhippers' interests it will be the best card the republicans will have in the next state campaign. By that time the commission' will also have finished its investigation of freight rates and re vised them according to the instruc tions of the legislature. Bailroad rate matters will therefore be at the front, and Staples' friends believe the promi nence of this question will make him the logical candidate. He is coming to be well known as an authority on the rate question. His testimony be fore the senate committee at Washing ton attracted general attention last spring, and he has been called in con sultation by Governor La Follette on the new Wisconsin railroad commission bill. C. F. Staples, like Govertror Johnson, is a native of Minnesota. He was born in Dakota county, which is still his home, and is a practical farmer and dairyman. He served four terms in the legislature, making a record that led to his nomination and election in 1900 as one of the first elective board of railroad a'n'd warehouse commissioners. He was re-elected in 1902 for a four year term, and so comes up next year lor re-election. He is 49 years old. Since going on the railroad commission he has had vary little to do with prac tical politics, and took no hand in the factional fight last year, a point which is also urged iw his favor. Mr. Staples himself has not been con sulted. He is understood to desire a re-election to his present place and so is not likely to make a bid for the gov ernorship, but the Staples boomers say he would have to take the nomination Sf offered.
