Vernon County Clear at the TOP


The experimental station at the state

exhaustive bulletin, No Ga, the findings
on the beet sugar experiments Last
spring 1896 samples of seed were sent
out fiom the station to all parts of the
state for the purpose of ascertaining
which locality and what variety of soil
was bsst adapted for Wisconsin beat
culture. Many thousands of sample
beets were sent to the station to be
aralyzed. In this test Vernon county is
we nigh ut the top There were thirty
six sub stations established in the state,
one at our county asylum, and of all
these the samples sent from there gave
the best test of sugar. The average
per cent of sugar attained at these sub
stations is 13 40; at our asylum, IL %
twenty three samples of beets were sent
from Vernon county, most of them
yielding a good average. K l.. Hotlen
of Jefferson, sent sample which tested
l9 " per cent sugar and 81 per cent
of purity. Thus it will be seen that

Where Judge Ryan Failed.

Judge Bardeen is man of more
learning than most lawyers. He be-
longs to this class rather than to the
advocates. The latter don't always
make the best judges. A veteran law
yer was speaking of this: THE most
brilliant trio of men of the Wisconsin
court in my time have been Paine
Ryan and Orton-all brilliant advo-
cates-but to my thinking they have
been the least safe as judges. / mean
comparing them with great judges. OF
course, Ryans opinions are models of
English, bit contrary to the opinion of
enthusiasts laymen, later courts have
had to undo a good deal of the great
Ryans work. Taylor was poor advo~
cate, on the other hand, and he used
poor English, though lots of 1t, for his
opinions are very long. But to my
thinking, his judgment in matters of
the law is most infallible.
$50 too. Cole was a safe Judge. Jus
tice Ryan used to complain that Cole
would not share in the discussions of
the judges, He would vote to affirm or
to reverse, and that was about all he
had to say. Judge Cole used to answer
Ryan something after this fashion:
When 1 was early on the bench / found
Paine and Dixon there. They were born
advocates. In our debates on the issues
before US they talked much, and being
men of strong convictions and vigorous
imaginations, as all advocates must be,
the tendency was for them to take
sides. ] could see into the workings
of their giant intellects that the support
of their contention was to them uncon-
sciously the chief end, while the under
lying principle of law was apt to be
twisted to suit their thinking, II they
were on the sound side of the question.
as they usually were, all was we'll.
| Judge Bardeen does not belong 70 the
school of advocates. Another strong
| trait he has is a capacity for hard
work; and there Is a tremendous daily
task for these FIVE men, the ultimate
court of appeal.
| Was SiIver's Candidate for Governor.
| Mr.. Silverthorn. who led the Demo-
cratic forces against Scofleld, may be
appointed circuit judge. and by the time
this reaches my readers he probably
will be. He is a big. moon-faced man,
with lots of dignity. iovable fellow Of
CO. He is one of the very ablest lawyers
in northern Wisconsin, but politics and
unfortunate investment in gold mines
out west and iron mines up north have
made him eligible for the $4,000 salary
that Bardeen's former position carries.
It win be a graceful thing on Govern
or Seofield's part TO appoint the man he
has beaten. and it may be wise to do so.
The election by the people is but tive
! months off and the judicial district H.
Democratic. If Silverthorn Is not APP
pointed the Democrats say they VIII
run him IA april; and II would be try
ing TO have the governors appo.ntee
defeated then. On the other hand, the
friends of Bump Of Wausau say that
Republican should be chosen. Tho

Then came Bardeen's turn. He was a
vigorous lad in every way and his CON-
panions told him so. They reminded
him not only of his ability-it was pre-
dicted on graduation that he would be-
come judge-but they told him he was
vain and egotistic. They warned hin,
against letting these traits get the bet
ter of him and spoil an otherwise beau
getting madden and madden. The I'M

Judges are against anything that looks
like politics in judicial elections, though
Clementson's friends always maintained
that the politics of the thing lay in
making no contest. Moreover, IL is said
now that Clementson was run by
those who wanted to strengthen them
selves. not by himself. He is a good
man and will be on the bench later.
Judge Bardeen was brought to Dare

father was farmer and the boy went
to the famous Albion academy "Cul-
ly" Adams, the dairy and food COM
missioner, was a pupil there, too, and
when he wrote his congratulations he
said:
Dear Charlie: You are lust the man
for the place. I noticed our judicial
cast of mind when you used to pour
pals of cold water on the heads of
sleeping Norwegian boys at Albion"
Bardeen clerked in hardware stores
out in Colorado cities, but he wanted
to be lawyer, so he came back to
Wisconsin and graduated in 1875 al the
law school, getting at his profession in
earnest rather tardily-when he was 26
years old. In seventeen years he was

AJudge Who Enjoys Life.

He is now 4S years old He rides the
bicycle, plays billiards, enjoys a good
cigar, is remarkable shot with a gun,
and people love to drop in his office for
chat. He plays a very strong game of
whist; in fact, he is said to excel in
whatever he puts his hand to. He is
affiliated with the Unitarian church. If
he has any weaknesses it is his temper,
but he deserves great credit for con-
trolling 1t and is said to be less vigor-
gus in his use of language when angry
than he was when young and passion
ate. Judge Bardeen is credited with a
genuine sense of fairness, He has
been known to cite cases in court which
were dead against his own side in his
desire to get at the real truth. He is
not polished as some men are, but his
fitness for the bench was shown by
the heartiness of the concentrations of
the bar, and presumably of the SUI
preme bench judges. Ex.Chief Justice
Lyons remark that he had been watch
ing Rardeen for years and was struck
by the accuracy of his reasoning had
great weight.
Judge Bardeen has two children, one
daughter of Is down in an Illinois
seminary; and a son of about Is. The
latter is deaf, and has been taught to
speak in one Of the day schools for the
deaf which the state authorized by law
soue ten years ago. Judge Bardeen
was active in securing the passage of
this law. together with John c. Spence
of Milwaukee. 1t saves unfortunate
children from being sent off to the state
institution by authorizing local schools
where a number of deaf or mute chill
dren can be grouped in any community.
The boy is very bright and, with others,
exhibited his powers at the state capt.
tai couple of years ago. When Bell,
the telephone man, was before the leg
is'ature in the interest of deaf and
dumb children. Judge Bardeen's
mother lives at Viroqua, where a mar
ried sister, Mrs. Yale, also lives. He
has three brothers living in Wausau.
He has been at the head OF the Royal
Arch Masons in the state, taking great
interest in their great brotherhood.
