Thought these days by reason OF the
mention Of his name for the university
presidency, That matter, by the way,
is not much talked about publicly in
Madison, the regents being in a re-
ceptlye attitude, and not little advice
is being given them. 1t is said some
OF the faculty are concluding that
there is safety in the choice of Pro
lessor Birge; that, although he is not
their first choice of all, they differ so
as to whom they would prefer and es-
peclally they so distrust anything like
revolution in method and possibly a
Shift in personnel, that they conclude
the making permanent of the acting
presidency would be the safe policy.
The regents meet in January, though
1t is by no means certain choice will
be made at that time. There is quite
a Bashford movement on now, the
Ohio university president being him
self graduate of Madison and having
many admirers in Wisconsin. He
is big, cultured Methodist, and while
on the order of Bascom in convictions
and forceful personality, he is credited
with more tact and the ability to get
along with people.

Easy Money for Education.

Teachers get better pay in the west

have fine lot Of teachers. In Seattle

from $50 to $40 a month there where
We pay from $50 to $40 here. But

State Textbooks Disappointing.

Speaking of superintendent Harvey,
that gentleman recently returned from
the state Of Washington, where he
saw the state textbook system in oper-
alton, and he does not like it. 1t will be
remembered that frequently in our
own legislature it is proposed that the
state buy and control the books Of
school children. Superintendent Hal
vey says: THE result of the appro-
priatiOn for the purchase is that all
books must be under a certain figure
in cost, and the makers leave out
portions of the matter we get here.
Some Of their: books are made by To-
cal people, and all are unsatisfactory.
OF course, if the best textbooks could
be secured, the system would be bet
ter than ours, where the selection is
left to the district boards. They have
a growing university with 400 stu
dents in Seattle

Green Bay Herring in Peril.

Not only land game will be the sub
ject of legislation in 1902, but the her
ring of Green Bay need looking after
They are a famous fish and it is a
great source of revenue for the entire
Green Bay region, but they are being
taken so ruthlessly that experts say
five years will finish them. Fishing
with nets is now carried on in the fall,
winter and spring. The fish get no
time to propagate and are being
caught in the deepest, as we'll as the
shallOWest waters. A large number Of
big deep water herring, the greatest
prOpagatOrS, are being brought in.
They are being caught almost the en-
tire year, something not known before,
and the number of fishermen is in
creasing. In former years there was
no fishing done through the ice with
nets, but it is now carried on vigor-
Ously every winter. This was the
manner in which the whitefish We're
eXterminated in Green Bay.

Country Trade Valuable.

Probably few communities give
thought to how much they are indebt-
ed to trade from the surrounding coun-
try. It is so in Madison, the market
place, where convenient hitching posts
are provided, being crowded on Satur-
days, and often on other days. These
people drive for distances extending
to ten miles, and some from beyond, to
bring in produce and patronize our
stores. Very little attention, however,
! is paid these thousands of men and
speech, even of business men, one
would think all the local trade is from
those who live in the city. The Stew
ems Point paper recently stationed OBJ
servers at all the roads entering the
city and kept the count of teams for
enc day between 8 and o'clock.
There were eight roads. Pedestrians
and bicyclists were also listed, no
automobile census being necessary.
Of course, when the count commenced
at o'clock a good many teams had
passed in and out of the city; and
when it closed at o'clock in the even
ing many farmers teams were still
ON the streets, their drivers being
mainly patrons of the saloon. Here is
the bridge record: Wisconsin river
bridge-Vehicles crossing from west to
east, $50; vehicles going, ITO. Pedes-
TRANS crossing from west to east, 1876;
pedestrians going, 164. Number OF
people ON vehicles both ways, 666.
Bicycles coming, 81; bicycles going, 81.
To sum up there were 1,102 vehicles
(pot including bicycles) coming and
going during the day. This means a
good many people spent money at the
stores. ORLANDO BURNETT.

Dancing With Joy.

The Republican newspapers and the
gold Democratic papers are shouting and
dancing with JOY oyer the result of the
Ohio Democratic State Convention, which
they declare snubbed, jeered and tram
pied OH Bryan's picture and eliminated
him and Organism" from the Demo
cratic party. Bryan is about as great
terror to the G. 0. p. as Samson was to
the Philistines. When Bryan and the
principles he stands for are eliminated by
the Democratic party, there will not De
enough Of il len to swear by.
There has been a steady effort by the
leaders of the Republican party-the trust
,naguates principally through their news
papers, to weaken and make mere
buffer OF the Democratic party 10 the
Republican party, to Tighten the force of
the blow which is impending by the in.
dustrial masses against organized capital
and soulless greed. The Republican ele-
ment, such as Cleveland, German, David
B. Hill, Whitney and all the corporation
gang which claimed to be leaders in the
Democratic party, has never ceased to
war OIL Bryan aud charge that Bryan and
Organism" were foreign element in
the Democratic party, and that they
should be cast out and the party return to
its original principles. What these
original principles are or were they
fail to define, except by stating some
vague glitlering generali,ies.
For forty years The Democratic party
represented 10 definite policy, other than
opposition to the Republican party meas
ures, until new life was infused into it at
Chicago i'll 1895 and il nominated Bryan.
There has been constant effort since
then by the plntoCrat element, supported
by the Republican party, 10 get control of
the party and lead it back to the Cleve-
land barren deserts, and they believe now
they are about to succeed, IF they do it
will be the lgst of the Democratic party
Such an organization would not poll
enough votes iii 1904 10 be considered as
representing political factor. Like the
Wing party in $3.50 it would go to
pieces.
Bryau's mistake i'll 1900 was i'll uot
taking more advanced position on the
financial question. These are not the
times far returning, like the dog TO his
voulit, to old things and old methods
The Republican party has steadily
advanced toward plutocratic government,
while the Democratic party has, until
1896, doug Little than bay at il as dog at
the moon. If this reorganization scheiaa
succeeds, and it looks that way from pres.
ent appea, ances, it means a funeral for
what is left of the Democratic party.
