SATURDAY SESSIONS J..

SATURDAY SESSIONS.
A SESSION of the legislature
was held last Saturday. 1t was
one of the first in years. Ira
Bradford, of Eau Claire county,
took a fall out Oh the legislature
by declaring that the members
had been sent to Madison to look
after public business, and that it
was their duty to put that ahead
of their private affairs, and to
remain in Madison and look after
the public affairs And after
that there we're none to vote
against remaining in SESSION.
In the balmy old days of rail
road passes everyone quit Madi-
son Friday afternoon, and if
there was session Monday
night it was thought that the
members were working hard.
But now there are no passes,
and when the member goes to
Madison from the northern part
of the state he expects to spend
the entire winter there. He can
not very we'll get home, but in
stead of that hangs around Madi-
son about one-hatf of his time
waiting for the members from
near by the Capitol toget around
to transact public business.
Two Or three days are usually
lost every week, and during that
time the great lot of clerks and
officials appointed for the session
are drawing full pay. It is an
injustice that the members of the
legislature from the southern
part of the state should insist on
the vacations every week, to al
low them to return home. The
sessions could be shortened by
at least twenty days if the mem.
bers would 60 to Madison to at
tend to their public duties and
leave business affairs at home in
good hands. They simply
should do what they are elected
and paid for.
WE NOTICE by the St. Paul
Pioneer Press that the venerable
lumber king, Frederick Weyer-
hauser has very unruly COW.
The brute broke out Of the Sum
nit Avenue stable one day last
week, and run the part of the
city in the vicinity of the Seven
Corners to suit herself. A
crowd of men, lot of policemen
and Mr.. Weyerhausen tried to
subdue the animal, and finally a
ring was placed through her
nose, with which to hold her.
This was torn out, aud after a
long time the COW was cOrraled
in the stable. A veterinary sur
geon was called in and stated
that the COW was liable to have
and wanted tshoU. Mr..
said he couldn't
stand for that, as the cow was
only excited, and to prove that
she was a gentle beast he en-
tere the stall extending a gentle
pat Of the hand. and coaxing
$50 boss. T" The "boss" made a
rip at her owner with her horns
putting him out Of business for
a short time, but his loyalty to
the COW remained unWaivering,
and at last accounts she was
still alive and the cherished pet
of the Weyerhauser stables.
That Mr.. Weyerhauser has big
heart and was willing to spend
his time which is worth many
dollars a minute in protecting
the unfortunate brute, is shown
by the loyalty he showed to
the COW.

ly by the clergy of the country,
against the admission Of Reed
Smoot, one Of the Mormon
Apostles, as Senator from Utah,
a position to which he has been
elected by the legislature of his
state. There is no more reason
according toour way Of thinking,
why Smoot should be excluded on
account of his religion, than
there would be in applying the
the same prohibition upon a
Methodist, q Catholic, Congrega-
tiOnaliSt, or q member of any
other denomination. SmoOt is
not a polygamist, and according
to all accounts is an entirely
worthy representative of his
state. The state would perhaps
have obtained better results from
a Sentaor who would not go to
Washington SO hampered by pre-
JUDGES that surroundhim and his
church, but that is the lookout
of Utah. He has been elected and
should serve the people in the
capacity to which he has been
chosen

The President has taken a
positive stand IN regard to anti
trust Legislation and has in
formed the leaders of both
houses of Congress that unless
adequate trust legislation is
enacted at the present session
he will call the fifty eighth Con-
gress in special session for the
consideration of that subject i'm
mediately after the fourth of
March. The firm stand taken
by the President has produced a
marked effect on members of
Congress and especially is this
true of the Senate. Several
members of the upper house,
who earlier in the session conf
IDENTIFY said that there would be
no antitrust Legislation by this
Congress, have experienced a
change of belief and have within
the past few days stated that
they regard some anti trust
measure as probable.

THE report published and sent
out from Hayward that the COM
mittee of Investigation of county
officers accounts had found the re-
firing treasurer, John Erickson,
over two thousand dollars short,
is disproved by the official report
and proceedings of the county
board published in the last issue
of the Hayward Republican,
wherein it is conclusively shown
that Mr.. Erickson's accounts
were all right in every respect.
The outgoing treasurer has
many friends in Washburn and
throughout northern Wisconsin
who could not believe the pub
lished statements, but then the
publication of such stretches of
seems to be quite in
line with the policy of some of
the Haywardites. Mr.. Erickson
has been appointed grand secre-
tary of the [. S. w. A. and is de-
voting his entire time to the new
work.

concert The -mouthed bass drum,

the band, and 1t is needless to say that

the soldiers music won the victory, the

Captain Bossieux was asked about the
circumstances later, and said that the sol

have selected an inopportune time at
