Oshkosh, Wis, Dec. 17.-[Speciall i
County Superintendent Peterson has
published new list of charges against
President Adams and the Wisconsin
university. He reaffirms his previous
charges of extravaganza and aristocrat
and gives figures to show that the av-
erage expenses of fees charged to stu
dents is from $50 to $50 instead of $40
as claimed by Regent Challoner.
He also says that with the great list
of high-priced professors and instructors
most of the recitations are heard by
fellows" whose pay is only $500 per
year. The charge is also made that
President Adams did not devote over
an hour a day to the university itself,
but spends his time writing books and
editing encyclopedias. The only known
case of his kindly interest for the
boys" was when he called them together
to get up enthusiasm for the football
game with Minnesota.

NEW LINE TIC CHICAGO.
Combination of the 800 Line,' and
the Wisconsin s. Michigan
PronoSad

Marinette, Wis. Dec. 2O.-[SpeciaL]-
A gentleman of this city is in receipt of
:, letter from a prominent attorney of
Sault Ste. Marie concerning a great
project the Canadian Pacific railroad has
on foot. The attorney wished to OBJ
tain any information that could be Civ
en- him in regard to the scheme which,
he said, he understood was nearing COM
pletion. In fact, the letter states that
the Canadian Pacific railway has already
begun operations on a branch road that
will pass through Marinette county.
The project is to connect the 500
with Chicago by a continuous road con-
trOlled by one corporation. The Cana
dian Pacific practically owns the 800"
road and in connection with it could
make quick and direct union with the
great Western metropolis. The 500
attorney intimated that the enterprise
was not only formulated but that the
work had already begun. ''As the road
will surely pass through Marinette, per-
maps you could give me some valuable
Snformation in regard to it," he writes.
The plan is not new one. but tM
TENOR of the lawyers note induces the
citizens to believe that there is something
back of his assertions. The Canadian
Pacific road. since it controls the $780,"
could easily buy the Wisconsin & Michi-
gan line and in this way get it's direct
connections with Chicago. This looks
very plausible and it would not surprise
the railway world if the great Canadian
eoad should make a move of this sort.
