BIENNIAL SESSIONS.

Though the Madison people made
effort to defeat the bien-
NAL session scheme joint resolution
proposing an amendment to the con-
stitution providing for biennial ses-
sions passed the legislature Of 1880 by
a large majority. The amendment
proposed will involve change of
sections four, five, eleven and twenty
one of article four of the constitution.
Section four now provides for the
election of assemblymen every year
and must be so changed as to provide
for their election biennially; section
five requires the election of senators
for terms of two years aud must be so
changed as to make their terms four
years in length: section eleven now
provides that the legislature shall
meet in regular session once in each
year, and must be changed to provide
that it shall meet in regular session
once in two years; the proposed change
in section twenty-one increases the
pay of members from $3.50 to $500 for
each regular session and shuts off all
plumber in the way of perquisites.
The assembly reluctantly consented to
the proposition to cut off all perqu-
isites, and the Senate is entitled to the
credit of so amending the resolution
as to do away with the need of legis-
lative ''plunder boxes" The resolu.
ton as introduced was much improy-
Ell before its anal passage and now ap.
pears to be in acceptable shape. Let
il be distinctly understood. however,
that this resolution must run the
gauntlet OF another legislative session

The above figures do not include the
tax levied to meet interest on State
Indebtedness nor the annual tax levy
for the State University.
OF what are known as extraordinary
expenditures that were met under the
Republican administration of 1892
are SAG, 488 to pay off Democratic
deficiency and Ss6l. los for the Revised
Statutes, together making $207, 593.
which deducted from the total for 1873
last above given would reduce it to
1888, 098, u sum over seventy-siX thous-
and dollars less than the io,ceSt lery as
above given during the four years of
Democratic management. 1t is proper
for us to direct especial attention to
the fact that after the Democratic de-
ficiency had been wholly wiped out
Secretary Warner did not have to in
crease the levy made by the legisla-
ture as provided by Section l01l of
the Revised Statutes. 1t should also
be borne in mind that on the Both day
of September, 1874, there was cash
balance III the general fund of 1928.
53l, the product of the tax levy OF
1873 under Washburp administration.
In 1874. under the Democratic admin
istration, tax of 1914, 745 was levied
to be expended in 1875, and notwith-
standing this large levy the balance
in the general fund September Both,
1875, was reduced from the handsome
balance of the year before to the pal
try sum of ST. ,S46. SO with deficiency
to be made np in the tax levy Of that
wear of $l7l.783! And all this while
our Reform % friends were running
Governor Taylor for reelection on the
claim that his administration was bus
lily engaged in saving the dear people
of Wisconsin $500 a day. We have
thus shown that a fair comparison or
the tax levies of the past six years
leaves much to the credit of the Re-
publican party the tax levies of 1882
for ordinary current expenses under
Republican rule being much less than
those of lS74-7 uHder Democratic con-
troll.
We now come to the tax levy by the
legislature of 1880 of $453, 900 which
the Democrat affirms includes no ex-
traordinary expenses, and then pro-
ceeds to sound an alarm, warning tax
payers of the ravages of the Republi-
can party. The Democrat practices
the same deception III its statement
relating to the levy of $4,000 for
1880 that it did in it's statement re-
garding the tax of former years. 1t
states that this 1858, 900 includes no
extraordin uy expenses when the fact
is that fully one-hdT Of it-226, 500
is for purposes other than current ex-
penses, leaving the tax levied for this
purpose in 1880 more than one hun
bred thousand dollars less than the ex-
tremely(!) low tax levied under Dem
ocratic rule in 1874.
The fact of the business is, if the
Chairman of the Democratic State
Central Committee desires to go before
the people in the approaching cam
paign with the question Of eXtrava-
CANT tax levies for current expenses
of the State government, the Republi-
can party will be pleased to meet HIM
upon that issue AS it cannot fail to be
benefited by thorough discussion of
this subject.

TREvToN, MARCH lS.

The announcement on Sunday last
that Mrs. Dexter Owen had committed
suicide by hanging herself i'll the gar
ret of her new residence, came upon
this entire community like thunder
clap from a clear MONDAY sky. 1t
was so unlocked for, so sudden, that
one could hardly credit his own senses
until the tale had been twice told.
Mrs. Owen vas born at Waukesha.
Wis, April, l848. She united with the
Methodist church of that place at the
age of twelve years, and was married
to Dexter, Owens, of Trenton. March
1875. She leaves il ehild-a boy about
three years old. A year or two prev
ious to her marriage she fell upon the
ice striking her head 50 violently that
since ,hen she has been subject to at
tacks of temporary insanity. It was
during one of these attacks that she,
while no one was in the house but her
little boy, went to the garnet and there
committed the deed that has made
her home indeed house of mourning.
1t has been said that in the midst of
life we are in death, and it seems to
be eminently so in the case of the
subject of this notice. Surrounded
with every comfort that a moderate
affluence can give: her every want
anticipated, and supplied by an indul-
gent husband, and in the very bloom
of life the fell destroyer comes. that
insiduous instrument, insanity, caused
her own hands to do the work of de-
struction. Why it is that sorrows
great shallow overcasts where happi-
ness has gathered the most appliance.
we may not know but SO it is, and OH
only consolation is found in tie faith
that a kind Providence orders all
things for the best. The bereayed
mother and husband whose hearts are
borne down by tile deepest sorrow
will grieve. A strange stiffness may
haunt their respective homes for a
time but winter is driven away by re-
turning spring. 50 that stiffness will
vanish, and their sorrow will lessen:
and indeed why noti Do any know
that the lost one is not much better
off where she has gone than she could
y, sibly be in this woridl No. II
la -iortality is not 4 myth and religion
POSSESS Il substantial basis then ous
sorlowing for the dead is justified
only because we surtain loss even by
temporary absence.

before it can be submitted to the peo-
pie for their approval, and all who are
in favor of biennial sessions should
see to it that the nominees of their
party for legislative offices are unmis-
takably committed to the proposition
that this proposed amendment shall
be submitted to the people for ratifi-
cation or rejection as they may choose
to decide. A candidate need not nee
essarily he committed in favor of the

to require of him pledge to favor its
submission to the people. We believe
that majority of the people of Wis
