STATE CAPITOL COMMENT SI. Paul Letter Written for The Willmar Tribune Readers by Tom Lawson. I This ia the first of a series of letters to b« written during the next few months to cover the period of the legislative session,by a very competent political writer.—Ed.J St. Paul, Dec. 23—It is satisfac tory to know that the attorney gen eral promises to be attorney general after the first of the year. Confus ion would have been prevented if he had thought of it sooner. The inci dent which stiffened Mr. Smith's backbone, however, is one the res ponsibility for which lies rather at the door of the executive office than at that of the legal department. It appears that in Pennington county two candidates were tied in the elec tion for county commissioner. In such cases the law provides that they shall cast lots to see who is to hold down the job. They didn't know this in Pennington county, it appears, and in the absence of Mr. Smith ap pear to have been but little better in formed of the provisions of the law in the attorney general's office. At all events that is what they say in the governor's office, from which without any hesitation a proclama tion was issued calling for a new election to decide the question which the law says should have been de cided by lot. SOMEBODY BLUNDERED. The election thus ordered was held and it cost the taxpayers some $500 or more and resulted in the election of a socialist. By this time some one had discovered that the election should not have been held at all, and put the matter up to the attor ney general himself, who gave it as his opinion that the election was null and void, and that lots would have to be drawn as provided by law not withstanding the election. When this came out, the executive office to clear its skirts said a different decision had been made by one of the attor ney general's assistants. Hence Mr. Smith's pronouncement that he him self is going to be attorney general after this, and that his subordinates will not be permitted to speak for the state's legal department without first consulting him. GO AS YOU PLEASE METHODS. It is characteristic of the methods of the executive office that the pro clamation referred to above which bore the governor's signature was issued in his absence, and that he actually knew nothing about it until after the election had been held. It is his practice, it appears, when he goes off on a jaunt to leave all kinds of documents signed in blank, tne forms to be filled in'later by clerks, who sometimes get things right, but quite as often, I am told, get them wrong. That was the way in the case of one Alexander who was taken to Chicago and put in jail and relieved of his money on a trumped up charge and later released without even ap pearing in court. It was the case al so when commissions were first made out for Judge Catlin and Judge Bunn horn Governor Eberhart had recent ly appointed to the bench. The gov ernor has only authority to appoint them until the next general election As their commissions were made out the governor assumed to appoint them until the end of the full term The blunder was fortunately discov ered in time in the secretary of state's office to prevent illegal ap pointments being issued. A THIRD DISTRICT CANDIDATE. The republican delegation to the house from the Third congressional district got on the band wagon the other day by endorsing Rines for speaker. They were doubtless the more ready to do this as they had a candidate for sergeant at arms whom they could hardly hope to place with out the assistance of Mr. Rines' friends in Mr. Premo of West St. Paul. The municipality of West St. Paul, though only separated from the city of St Paul by the width of a street, is in Dakota county. What Mr. Premo's claims are do not clear ly appear, although the fact that he has the backing of the majority of the St. Paul members may not be without significance. Like the ma jority of the Third district delega tion, their natural alignment is not with the Progressives. GATHERING IN THE PLUMS. It is* reported here that W. A. Ver ity of Wadena is slated for the posi tion of first assistant secretary of the senate, which it is claimed he will be able to secure through the good offices of the senators of Hennepin county, and thereby hangs a tale not without its interest. Mr. Verity used to be quite prominent in politics in this state, and took an active part in the Dunn-Collins campaign. Be fore the convention he was an active lieutenant of the late Joel P. Heat wole in managing the Dunn end. Whether later he followed Mr. Heat wole's example in giving Dunn the worst of it I do not now recall. At all events shortly after its disastrous ending Mr. Verity went to Oklahoma and stayed there until its boom had the bottom knocked out of it. Then he came back to Minnesota, bought a paper at Wadena, and proceeded to make it as lively for the Progressives as he knew how, and he did know considerable about the business. His paper became the organ of the stal- wart's and was one of the few in the state which stood staunchly by Taft, Eberhart and the interests and pol icies they represented. DR. STONE IS PEEVED. In the 53rd legislative district in which Mr. Verity resides there was a particularly bitter contest. Dr. Stone, a prominent progressive mem ber of the house was a candidate for re-election, and no stone was left un turned by the reactionaries to defeat him. His most active opponents were Verity and Len Rice, the form er administration member, and the doctor says that they did not stop their fight against him when he was nominated, but later would have de feated him with a Democrat if they could. It is alleged also that no pol itical practice was too sharp for Verity and Rice to resort to, though, of course due allowance must be made for what one says while still suffering from the bruises sustained in & heated campaign. TO- FIGHT VERITY'S ELECTION. Notwithstanding the machinations of his enemies, however, Dr. Stone won out, and won out handsomely. It may be imagined how he feels about it when he learns that the man whom he regards as his bitterest pol itical enemy is after all to share with him the rewards of a victory he did everything he could to prevent. He naturally feels that he will be wound ed in the house of his friends if a senate which professes to be pro gressive gives the very best place at its disposal to so pronounced a reactionary as Verity. He proposes to see about it, and although it may be very likely that the machine may be able to put Verity over, I am mis taken about the doctor's resources if they will not find that they will have plenty of things to interest them while they are doing it. AGAINST LOCAL ASSESSORS. The tax commission strongly re commends in a report recently issued the abolition of the present system of assessment by township and lo cal assessor and the substitution for it of a system of assessment by county assessors. The argument which has considerable force is that more capable and disinterested as sessors can thus be secured. The commission also favors assessing property at fifty per cent of its real value. It appears that as things are at present the assessment may be fifty per cent in one county, thirty in another and twenty in another, an abuse which up to this time the com mission has not been able altogether to prevent, though probably the in equalities are not quite as great as before the commission was estab lished. UNFAIR CRITICISM. While the commission has no doubt been able to affect some reforms in the system of taxation in vogue in this state its work has been greatly retarded by the failure of the legisla ture to cooperate with it and to en act necessary legislation to enable it to carry out any definite program. At the same time the commission is blamed for not doing the effective work that was expected of it and promised for it when it was created. That work is compared to the Min nesota commission's discredit with what has been done by the Wisconsin commission in the way of equalizing the burdens of taxation. A more careful and impartial investigation of the matter would show however, that the effectiveness of the Wiscon sin commission is largely due to the fact that the. legislature of our sis ter state has been guided by its re commendations, and placed at its disposal the machinery with which it has been able to do the effective work it has accomplished. THE COMMISSION UNPOPULAR. However that does not alter the fact that the Minnesota tax commis sion is not popular. It is blamed not only for not introducing reforms which can only be effected through legislative action, but it is blamed for the increase of taxation which in this state has been the necessary and inevitable result of legislative and executive extravagance. The com mission, though entirely innocent in this matter, will have reason to con sider itself fortunate if it survives the approaching session. That a bill will be introduced looking to its abolition and to the substitution for it of the old board of state equaliza tion there is,little doubt, and such a measure will receive strong support. AN EDUCATION COMMISSION. Tired as the people of the state are and have every reason to be of ex pensive commissions, there is every probability that several more will be proposed at the approaching session. In the first place the governor has suggested something of the sort in his campaign speeches. He would have a land commission and an ag ricultural commission and a public utilities commission to begin with. Now comes the education office with a proposition that an education com mission be established, apparently to do the work expected of the office of public instruction. The superinten dent further proposes that the com mission shall outline a legislative program for adoption at some future time. Moreover he would defer any attempt to improve the education system until two years hence when it would have the advantage of the commission's suggestions. Many people think there are some things that would stand improving now. If the strangle hold of the book trust could be loosened the taxpayers would not complain even if that was not recommended by a commission.
