‘ The convention delegates had a.
shock the other day. ‘l‘t came from

11-15 declared himself unequhocslly
in favor of the “short ballot" in state
elections and demanded that the con-
vantion grant the popular demand for;
sumo ballot. it would mean the '
sweeping sway of a great number of
independent and irresponsible state
departments and the grouping of all
”state activities under the governor's
Root authority. It is really the feder-
etil'csblnct system. The people fwould“
relect." €116 governor, dad. he ”would

choose ten secretaries, responsible to

or the president's cabinet.

The people, declared Mr. Root, are
weary of the quibbles ‘and technicali-
; tiesoi'pblltlctans. “They have abund-
ant. cause for complaint. They are
tired of the present systempfgovern—
‘nlenh'and it is a wonder they could
have existed so long under it, with
its mushroom growth of offices, agen-

The matter ls of interest to every
state in the Union. Nearly everywhere
. the tendency has been toward a
“mushroom growth of Offices, agen-
cies and departments.”
