The Democrat Is In receipt OF a
pamphlet entitled The Exemption OF
Credits, by Nils +. Haugen OF
the Wisconsin Tax Commission, de-
livered before the assembly committee
on assessment and collection Of
taxes While we thank whoever was
kind enough TO send us the pamphlet,
we hold that the argument presented
by Mr.. Haugen In favor Of the taxing
of credits Is utterly wrong. The
credit exemption bill, recommended
by Judge ellison and Mr.. Curtis OF
the state tax commission, and passed
the senate, but defeated In the
assembly by the influence OF the
administration was simple and just
measure. All credits ought to be
exempt from taxation just rs govern
ment bonds are exempt, and, as we
believe, congress has exempted the
bonds OF the city of Manila. This
view Is what Governor La Toilette In
his first inaugural message terms the
academicn side OF the question.
a very great trouble with law makers
both In state and nation is they pay
too little attention to academic views
in matters OF taxation. II our rep
resentatives in senate and assembly
at Madison and In the senate and
house OF representative at Washing
ton would apply themselves to the
study OF the academic side OF matters
Of taxation, and then net according
to the light OF their understanding,
we could have less bunglng and
burdensome tax laws In the state and
less trust breeding tariff laws In the
nation The conclusions which come
from scientific research and u good
understanding OF economies are too
aften set aside for views which are
based upon transformation and bias
cd by self interests. Let law makers
generally pay more respect to
academic views In matters OF lcgis-
lation and the public welfare will be
greatly promoted.

~ W aSNottSths
The Wisconsin Geological and Nat
nral History Survey has just issued
It's tenth bulletin, consisting OF n
report on Highway Construction In
Wisconsin, by L. II. Buckley, former
ly u member OF the survey, but now
state geologist OF Missouri This
report Is volume OF $40 pages,
illustrated with 100 plates, including
26 maps OF Wisconsin cities. The
object OF this report Is to show the
present condition OF highways In the
cities and towns OF Wisconsin and to
give information regarding proper
methods Of road construction. The
book first discusses the classification
highways and the agents which des-
troy payements, and then takes up
the materials used In improving high
ways and the methods OF constructing
pavements. A separate chapter Is
given to the subject OF drainage. The
pavements In use In Wisconsin cities
are taken mp more In detail, The
counties arc arranged alphabetically
and brief sketch IL given OF the
general geological structure and the
available road materials for each
county. The street improvements In

ments 10 them, Sketch maps are
given, showing the amount and
nature OF the pavements In the
various cities. The report then gives
an account OF tests OF resistance to
wear aud the cemen,ing qualities OF
stone from Wisconsin used rs road

as to the kind OF pavement which
should be constructed under various
conditions.
This report is written for the
benefit OF that large part OF the
public which is interested In intelli-
gent road construction rather than
for the professional engineer. l.
will, therefore, be OF OF great interest
TO many citizens OF the state. The
Survey will send the report on the
receipt OF so cents TO cover the cost OF

PRESS OPINIONS.

Fond du Lac Reporter, Dem: The
contrast between the attitude of
Grover Cleveland and that of w. j..
Bryan upon matters pertaining to
politics and to the Democratic party
In particular is marked, and the com
parison Is not favorable to Mr..
Bryan. While he is travelling about
the country reviling Mr.. Cleveland
and doing his uttermost to prevent a
reconciliation OF the two wings OF the
Democratic party, Mr.. Cleveland Is
remaining quietly ut home, and what
ever his thoughts Of Mr.. Bryan may
be, he Is keeping them to himself.
He probably believes Mr.. Bryan's
ideas to be wrong now as he ever did,
but has the good sense to see that the
Democratic party cannot win while
divided against Itself, and refuses to
enter into the name-calllng contest
with the man from Nebraska. MIR.
Bryan Is making no friends by his
attack on Mr.. Cleveland, while Mr..
Cleveland Is making friends by his
silence.

THURSDAY, JULY 30, 1903.

Democrats are generally getting
together and will present united
front for tariff tax reduction In the
campaign OF 1904. A very, very few
democratic editors are Offering bitter
and unreasonable objections TO the
recruiting OF the party ranks; and 1t Is
noticeable that all OF these objections
are reprinted by republican editors,
who never declared In favor OF the
gold standard unlil the battle OF the
standards had been fought and won.
