1t is claimed that the railroad com
panies issued five hundred thousand
dollars worth of free passes to the
members of the late Wisconsin legis.
lature. Ii is such action as this that
tends to create in the public mind the
impression that legislatures are cor.
rupt, and that railroad men are ready
to use the funds of their corporations
to buy whatever legislation they de.
sire, whether good or bad. If there
is prejudice against railroads they may
thank their own foolish and short
sighted policy for it.

The difficulties between the legisla-
tive assembly of Norway and the king
is assuming alarming proportions.
Norway has for some years insisted
that she ought to have a consular
service separate from that of Sweden.
as the two countries are governed by
different and sometimes conflicting
laws in their foreign relations. An
act to. put this idea into practical effect
passed the Storthing, but failed to
receive the sanction of the king. Late
cablegrsms are to the effect that the
Storthing retaliated by refusing to
make the usual appropriation for the
kings salary and adjourned. Under
the constitution of Norway bill be-
comes a law without the sanction OF
the crown if passed through three
succeeding Storthings, but as elections
to that body take place only once ii
three years it takes nine years 10 place
a law upon the statute books in thai
manner.

The principal source of revenue of
our state is the license tax upon rail-
roads, now amounting to some 81 ,200,-
900 per annum. That there is great
opportunity to defraud the state out
of a large portion of this revenue,
there is no question, and it is strange
that legislators should object to a
close and going investigation
of the returns made by the companies.
AssemblyRan Hall of Dunn county
made an industrious and painstaking
investigation which developed dis
cTepancies in the returns of the North
western Railway Company indicating
loss TO the state of some 10000.
instead of satisfactorily explaining
the discrepancy the representatives
of the company seem to have ordered
new invoices of free-passes. Result,
the company excused by the Demo
cratic majority of the investigating
committee and Mr.. Hall sat down
upon.
