New Caucus Law.

There is a new caucus law on lie
statute books. It applies TO the
county Of Milwaukee and cities ii the
first and second classes. Other cities,
towns and villages may adopt the
law by majority vote if they see tit.
The law provides for al the details
of nominating candidates and dele
gates at primaries. II Institutes an
additional gathering Of voters called
preliminary meeting at which any
number Of names may be proposed
for candidates. These names are
then printed on official ballots, and at
the caucus voters check of such
names as they desire to vote for just
as is done at regular elections. A
hasty examination Of the bill which
is long, obscure and faulty in gram
NAUTICAL construction does not reveal
features that would be hSely to suit
the people OF this county.
If we would adopt the custom Of
keeping poll list at caucuses and
would hold the polls open for half a
day so that every voter could have
the opportunity to express his wishes
in a secret ballot, present caucus and
convention methods would do very
we'll in counties like Grant. OF course
conditions in the large cities are
different and there a law such as this
one may be OF value.

Cheers For "BHlg" Mason.

Milwaukee telegraph :-Senator
BILLY" Mason Of Illinois may not
have won much applause in the Unit
ed States Senate because of his fear
less speech in favor of preventing the
minority Of that body from checking
proper and prompt dispatch OF bush
ness, but he certainly won the APP
pause of the nation. The people
have long wondered why so distin-
guished legislative body as the SEN
ate OF the United States should permit
itself to allow important business to
drag along to an almost unlimited
length Of time when there IS demand
for prompt action just to crafty the
whims, the prejudices, and the mean
nesses of the minority. We hope
that Senator Billy Mason will keep
his pledge to bring the subject up un-
til the reform is brought about We
also hope that he win be seconded by
speeches by men who are as capable
Of making such speeches as himself
Wisconsin has a senator in Col John
c. Spooner who could CRAFTY nine
out Of ten OF the people OF the state
by making speech along the lines
laid down by Billy Mason. The
whole country is waiting for action
on the tariff question and the senate
Is allowing that question to drag
along week after week and probably
will allow it to draw along month
after month Does the Senate realize
that millions upon millions of men,
deeply interested in the issue. are
anxious for prompt action on that bill.
and that prompt action means much
to them and the country So much
has been said about hard times that il
seems out Of place to say anything
more, hut the United States Senate
ought to know that there is no hope
whatever Of return to good times
until that body acts on the tariff ques-
tions and the President has signed
the bin.

RELIGION In TurkeIl.

Religion enters so largely into
Turkish national life that it naturally
comes in for a great deal of the his
torian's attention. The greatest land
owner of the empire is the established
religion, but even here the character
istic neglect and incompetence is to
be found, as the following passage
from The Sultan and his Subjects"
by Richard Davey, shows:
The ecclesiastical property in land
ed estate Of the Turkish empire is so
large that it might easily be reckoned
at considerably over a third Of the en-
tire country; but by ar the larger
portion of it is out of cultivation, and
there is scarcely mosque to be found
in proper state Of repair Sancia
Sophia. which is as rich as St. Peters,
is not properly cared for; its courts
are weed grown and its clergy who
should be very wealthy, are very
badly off, in many cases dependent
on visitors for backsheesh. The sim
pie ruth is that its wealth is very
badly administered, its lands ill-culti-
waited, and its house property inlet,
because in many instances It's admin
istrators have not mad the sense to
keep it in a proper state Of repair.
Millions Of acres Of forest land, suilici-
ent to supply Europe with the finest
timber, belong to the mosques; but
this. instead Of benefitine anyone, Is a
standing danger because the woods
are constantly being set on fire by
charcoal burners and bandlll. If a
man dies and leaves no immediate IS
sue. the mosque nearest to his place
81 decease takes possession Of his
property, even to the detriment Of
his grandchildren who. if they wish
70 keep the said property have to pay
the mosque something like 80 per
cent interest for the privilege. Then
again the whole population. Moham-
medan and Christian alike. have to
pay i tithe. a goodly proportion OF
which goes into the pocket CT the
provincial governor and other officers
before it reaches the treasury at Con-
stantinople. -Evening Wisconsin.
