Ii readers have given the election
notice of the county clerk attention,
they will find that the electors of the
state will be called upon to vote for
or against six amendments to the
state constitution at the next election.
The first is to increase the number of
Judges of the supreme court from five
to seven. Second, is to restrict the
time of any municipality in borrow
ing money. changing from fifty to
twenty years. Third, to give the leg
islature the power to pass general
banking law. Fourth, providing for
the election of state superintendent
at the spring elections, and increas-
ing the term of office to four years.
Fifth, enabling counties which have
an incorporated city of over 100000
inhabitants, the right to establish a
separate system of county govern
menG This amendment is wholly NJ
the interest of Milwaukee, Sixth, to
prohibit the issuing of passes to all
public officials or those holding office
under the government. The most
important of these amendments Is
that in relation to railroad passes. II
all are adopted except the first it will
be we'll for the public.

The Office of District Attorney is the best
paid Office in the county. The incumbent has
man to assist him. ana gets $50 month";
Dodgeville Chronicle.
The writer Of the above probably
concluded that the district attorney
" has nothing to do" because for the
present term of the circuit court
there are only two criminal cases on
the calendar. In fact, the calendar
cases represent but IA very small part
of the district attorneys services
The calendar for one term of the cir
cult being exceptionally Light in
criminal cases is no evidence that
the office of district attorney is a
sinecure, and such representation is
unfair.

shifty politicians, unless 1t be the
corporations who furnish the money
for their campaign? These corpora
ton politicians have generally con-
troled the action Of their parties.
That they could not control the re-
nomination Of Gov. la Toilette is
evident. That they did control the
nominStion OF Mayor Rose in the
democratic convention is evident.
That these great corporations and
their politicians in both parties have
entered into conspiracy against the
neople and the cause of the popular
rights Is as clear as the noon-day
sun.
What then should the people do?
Stand by the men who have stood
by them! That's plain old-fashoned
sense. Use the ballot as you would
any good tool in your own defense.
Vote not so much as republicans and
democrats, but rather as men who
know friends from enemies. Stand by
the great central proposition, in state
legislation, that corporate property
must pay its taxes just as squarely
as individual property. stand by
the men in the national congress
who bave been proved to be faithful
defenders of the interests OF Ameri-
can agriculture and American labor.
Let every man do this and it will
not need great sums of money to run
campaigns. We will not need then
to mortgage the great parties to rich
corporations, and so turn the control
Of politics and government into their
selfish hands. 1t is time every farm
er and householder looked into this
thing. 1t is time he saw whether he
was being played with for his own
hurt by corporation-serving polit-
clans. 1t Is time that he saw that
his liberty, both political and COM
mercial, must cost some effort on his
part to preserve it. 1t is time that
he saw that politics means more
than blind partisanship.

SPEAKER HENDERSON of Iowa has
astonished the country by withdraw
ing from the contest in his district
on account, as he alleges, Of differ
ences between himself and republic
can leaders on tariff revision. Mrt
Henderson believes that the remov-'
al of duties will let in foreign trusts
instead of curing the trust evil. He
desires that Congress be given pow
er to control home trusts and that
the tariff remain as a barrier to for
eign trusts. This is President Roose-
velt's pet theory and is the only
thing that would reach the coal and
oil trusts and others which are not
protected by tariff in any manner.
