From the Grant County witness,

The last Legislature was not band
of political tricksters who, the Cover
nor's followers would make the public
believe, stood in the Governors way
and refused to pass his pet measures.
It was composed OF many clear headed
brainy men who prided themselves
upon looking after the public's inter
ests as if they were their own. The
most of them have enviable reputa-
lions for honesty and conscientiousness,
and are as much entitled to have
their opinions respected as have the
Governor or his followers. Had the
same consideration been paid to those
who differed With the Governor, as he
insisted should be shown him, the Re-
publican party would not be in the I'M
pleasant situation it now is. It cannot
be said that all of his reforms were
urged by the people at large, nor is
there reason or justice in insisting
that his views, and his alone, are the
only correct ones.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY %, 1902.

MosT OF THE La Toilette newspa-
pers that have commented upon the
affidavits of H. E. Rothe and u. W.
Goldsmith. have utterly ignored the
affidavit of Mr.. Roethe, basing their
remarks altogether upon the alleged
interview which he is reputed to have
had with the representatives OF nall
breed newspaper. For the ln1orma-
nation of those who are not informed
on this matter we desire to say tnae'
the interview is utterly repudlated py
Mr.. Roethe. who says that 1t is
wholesale misrepresentation OF him.
Colonel Starkey and Pension Agent Coe,
Roethe SAYS he stands by his affidavit,
and Colonel Starkey adds that he has
no fault to find with that document
TO, it contains absolutely nothing which
in any wise reflects upon him or the
Wisconsin Republican League, The
affidavit merely states that Roethe re-
ceived money in payment of subscrlp'
lions to his newspaper, and Colonel
Starkey points to the fact that he,
long time ago, announced publlcally
that he was subscribing and paying
for newspapers friendly to the League,
and circulating them among doubtful
voters, the names of which he was col
lecting and sending to the publishers
of papers who had indicated their
stalwartism.

SOusa with the additional dignity OF
royal favor and royal decorations; with
the prestige OF British success that sur
passes the triumphs of any other visit
ing conductor and with the knowledge
that his music is in the flood tide of pop
ularity at home and abroad is back
again on his aatiye heath, engaged upon
another concert tour with his great
band, just IA though playing before
crowned heads was an ordinary incident
in his career.
The admirers Of the March King
and there is no living American who
can number more of them, will agree
that his success is well merited
and will Doubtless thrOng his
concerts to testify in the most sub
stantial manner to their admiration for
his abilities and their qualification in
his European recognition.
John Philip Sousa and the S0usa Band
are such distinctively American institu-
lions that they have come to be accepted
rather as a matter Of course without
adequate acknowledgment of their man
fold merits. The American musician
must cross the water to have received
such tribute as the following from the
pen of the critic of the conservative ST
James Gazette:
eve may say at one that such play
ing by a band consisting of woodwind
and brass alone has without doubt,
never been heard in this country before
Mr.. S0usa is evidently a musician of
rare refinement and instinct,:with an ap-
probation for and gift of rhythm which
fairly amounts to genius. Much of the
music performed was of the Iightest
description, yet we cannot pay Mr.. Sou
sa higher compliment than to say that
ones purely critical musical faculty
was entirely carried away by the extra
ordinary entrain and yerye Of interpre-
tatlons. There was on the part Of the
players an absolutely spontaneous re-
spouse to the conductors slightest move
ment or gesture, while the auditors
themselves seemed to be influenced in
no less degree from an emotional
points OF view. Watertown, Monday

At noon on Thursday December -

#,
190D Marconi sat waiting. telephone
receiver at his ear, in the old barracks
on Signal Hill. To him it must have
been a moment of painful stress Ar
ranged on the table before him, all its
parts within easy reach, was the delicate
receiving instrument, the supreme pro-
duct of years Of the inventors life, now
to be submitted to decisive test A
wire ran out through the window to a
pole, thence upward to the kite which
could be seen swaying high overhead.
1t was a bluff, raw day; at the base of
the cliff, 300 feet below, Numbered cold
sea; Oceanward through the mist rose
dimly the outlines Of Cape Spear, the
easternmost reach Of the North Ameri-
can continent. Beyond that rolled the
unbr0ken ocean, nearly 1000 miles to
the coast Of the British Isles. Across the
harbor the city of St. Johns lay on its
hillside wrapped in fog; n one had
taken enough interest in the expert
ments to come up here through the snow
0 Signal Hill. Even the ubiqui tous re-
porter was absent, but the faith of the
inventor in his creation was mistaken.
81 believed from the first" he told me,
that [ wonld be successful in getting
signals across the Atlantic.
Only two persons were in the room,
Mr.. Marconi and Mr.. Kemp Everything
had been done that could be done. The
receiving apparatus was of unusual SEN
Sitiveness, so that it could catch even
the faintest evidence of the signals. A
telephone receiver, which is no part of
the ordinary instrument, had been sup
piled, so that the slightest clicking of the
dots might be conveyed to the inventor s
ear. For nearly half an hour not sound
broke the silence of the room; then
suddenly Mr.. Kemp heard the sharp
click Of the Taper as it struck against
the coherer this, of course, was not the
signal, yet it was an indication that
something was coming. The inventors
face showed NJ evidence of excitement.
Presently he said, See if you can hear
anything, Mr. Kemp"
MI. Kemp took the receiver, and a mo-
ment later, family, and yet distinctly
and Enthusiastically, came the three little
clicks-the dots Of the letter S, tapped
out an instant before in England At
ten minutes past one more signal came,
and both Mr.. MarcOni and Mr.. Kemp
assured themselves again and again that
there could be no mistake. During this
time the kite gyrdted so wildly in the
air that the receiving wire was not
maintained at the same height, as it
should have been; but again, at twenty
minutes after two, other repetiti0ns Of
the signal were received.
Thus the problem was solved. One of
the great wonders Of science had been
wrought. On the following afternoon.
Friday, he succeeded in getting other
repetitions of the signal from England;
but on Saturday, though he made an
effort, he was unable to hear anything.
The signals were Of course, sent con-
tinOusly, but the inventor was unable to
obtain continuous results, owing, as he
explains, to the fluctuations of the
height of the kite as it was blown about
by the wind, and to the extreme delicacy
OF his instruments, which required con-
slant adjustments during the expert
mentS.
