Frank Lamly, briber, former banker

that day been shipped home to his

Lamly got what was coming to him."

WISCONSIN citizens have reason to fee

WISCONSIN citizens have reason to feel
some little satisfaction because of the
showing made by the state as the result
of the railroad freight rate controversy
that has been in progress since last win
ter. The facts disclosed by the census
reports concerning Wisconsin industries
many of which would have remained
buried in the body of the reports had it
not been for the controversy are in
every way creditable to the state. Briefly
stated, the facts so far developed are as
follows: The average price Of staple
farm products is higher in Wisconsin
than in Iowa, the state with which most
comparisons are made The average
earnings per acre of farm lands are high
er in Wisconsin than in Iowa, while the
average psoduction per acre is approx
mately the same. Iowa is great agri
cultural state with population exceed
ing that of Wisconsin by 162,811. It
has 58,827 more farms than Wisconsin,
and it's farms are larger on the average
6.8 acres. And yet the production of
butter and cheese in the two states is
approximately the same value. Iowa
in 1899 made 80, 469,9O3 pounds of butter
more than Wisconsin, while the total
cheese production of this state exceeded
that of Iowa 74,735,233. The assertion
that railroad freight rate discrimination
has been made against Wisconsin pro-
ducers and that they have operated to
the disadvantage of Wisconsin enter
prises, when compared with those of
neighboring states having political rail
road commissions is not borne out by
these facts.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

"THIs is the second embezzlement OF
these trust funds" said one of the best
lawyers of the state few days since in
speaking of the misappIication of the
money loaned during the war to the gen
eral government, nearly half million of
which was recently returned to the state
He continued: "The first embezzlement
had the color of justification as a war
necessity; but this one not only has no
justification whatever, but the reason for
it's Misrepresentation, namely, to give a
false appearance of economy to a pre-
tended reform administration, thereby
decieving the public, adds to its crimi-
nality." This is plain talk, but the sit
uation warrants Whitewater Regis

THE secret of the absorption of the SUI
gar beet factories is exposed by Wash
ington correspondent to be as follows:
The sugar trust has purchased these
factories for the double purpose of oper-
ating them at profit whenever condi-
tions warrant, and of closing them down
when there appears to be more money in
shipping refined cane-sugar into the beet
sugar region. True to the basic principle
of all great trusts, the sugar mbination
is in position to make money whether
the tariff goes up or down.

Labeled the Girls.

A good joke was played on the girls
recently by the young men of a certain
town. The boys had been rather remiss
in their attentions, and the girls de-
cided to show their independence. Con.
sequently five of them hired box at
the theater and made very charming
theater party.
The play was "Wanted, Husband "
and the girls sat serene through it ali,
never dreaming that the enemy had
fastened one of the posters, Wanted, a
Husband" round the box so that the
audience might read.

The agitation begun by the rural free
delivery carriers for an increase in their
compensation is likely to meet a very
general approval The rural carrier is
not one of the class of government en-
ployes Of whose value the public has any
doubts. He does not quit his job
at or 5 in the afternoon, celebrate every
legal holiday and have vacation of from
two weeks to month every year at full
pay. He has to report for duty every
day in the week and cover his route rain
or shine, whether the thermometer
stands at 100 in the shade or at 40 below
or whether the roads are made almost
impossible by floods or are buried in
snowdrifts. He has to be punctual, en-
ergetic, intelligent, honest, and in every
respect reliable. He is, in short, like the
city carrier, a high type of government
employe and deservedly popular with the
patrons of his route. But in spite of the
requirement of intelligence, honesty and
reliability demanded by the service and
obtained in practically every case, he is
granted only $500 year by the govern
ment. This compensation, if it all went
into the rural carriers pocket, would not
be unattractive to many. But as a mat
ter of fact he only gets a small part of
this sum. For out of it he is expected
to pay for his horse, wagon, harness and
other outfit, and to keep them in repair
and ready for service at all times. Ac-
cording to statements made at the Sep
TENDER convention of the national asso
citation OF the rural carriers. the average
cost of equipment is from $500 to $500.
The result is that at the end of the year
the rural carrier finds that the actual
compensation for his work is only $500
or $500 year. But in many cases even
this small margin is cut down and in
some cases disappears. The death of a
horse. the wrecking of a wagon, any
number of possible mlschances have to
be met. 1t has, in fact, not been uncom-
mon for rural carrier to find himself
actually out of pocket at the end of the
year. The result is that there has been
a large number of designations. And
there would have been more if the rural
carriers had not been hopeful of getting
their request for an additional 5000 a
wear.

ALL signs point to another period of
financial stringency. The large money
markets are tightening up and the large
industrial concerns are adopting plans
for retrenching expenses. Farmers
products are moving more slowly and at
lower prices. Laborers will be the next
to feel the effect. Now is good time to
begin practicing economy. 1t is too late
when the crisis is on. Get ready for the
hard times as judicious farmer gets

HURRY UP MODEL ROAD.
County Court and Others Interested in
Finishing 1T Rapidly.

People financially interested in the
building of the model road on the
West Side are making an effort to rush
the work to completion. President
Harner of the county court, and Mr..
Sturgiss were over there this afternoon
investigating the matter.
The government men are not SO
much interested in how quickly the
road is built as how we'll. They have
been taking their time, and making it
in truth, a model road The people
who are putting up the money are
anxious to have it finished.
The method of work has been to
grade part of the road and then put
on the stone finishing each piece as
they went The teams used in grad
ing were laid off while the stone was
put on. The plan now is to grade one
piece while the other is being macamiz-
ed, thus pushing all the work forward
at once.
