case The District Attorney has not
taken rs into his confidence and we do
not know therefore on just what
grounds he intends to build his case.
But we do know that any suit is liable
to delay indefinitely the building Of the
Court house. We do know that the
court house is needed. And we do
know that this dispute like many an
other can in all probability be adjusted
satisfactorily to all concerned if only
the proper means are taken to go about
it.
Messrs Kinney and Detweiler, we
understand, have offered to make any
reasonable Affiliations in the plans,

gest Tney have guaranteed to put
capable man in charge of the construc-
ton of the edifice and have offered to
let the Board have say il choosing
him. It would certainly seem to the
casual observer M if this were meeting
the Board halfway.
And in this connection we are re-
minded of little bit Of history which
may possibly repeat itself Years ago
when the movement TO change the
county seat from Manitowoc Rapids to
MantowOc city was afoot it was esti
mated that the new building-the
present cOnrt house,-would cost in the
neighborhood OF $40, 000-which it did
And thus do We remember in our for

LA FOLLErTE'S BLUFF

SOME bluffs" are worth playing but
are not played for all they are worth.
Some bluffs" are played for all
they are worth, but are not worth
playing. We rather think that the at
tempt by Governor La Follettes admi
nistration to take upon itself any
credit for the reduction this year in
the state taxes comes decidedly within
the latter category. 1t was played for
all it was worth, but it was q poor
bluff.
The fact Of the matter is that in or.
der that there shall be no need Of taxa
ton this year the La Toilette admin.
stration is going to make the State keep
on paying an interest Of 7 per cent on
an old debt which could be settled up.
This peculiar method Of practising
economy is now being shown up for
just what it il worth. In other words
he bluff" has been called.
According to an act Of Congress ap
proved March 3, 1891 the State Of Wis
consin has recently received from the
Federal government tho sum of $458, 69i
in payment Of civil war claim. This
and other moneys had at the time OF
the civil war been borrowed by the
state from the state trust funds for the
purpose Of raising troops ana communi
nication etc. The rate was 7 per cent
and it is estimated that the Taxpayers
Of Wisconsin have since then been pay
ing annually some $l5S. 900 interest on
the debt, This had amounted in 1896
to the neat little ann of about "a. 200, 00O
considerably more than the amount
borrowed
And now while at time when bust
ness men are getting money at 3 and
pei cent, the state is paying Z
and whi'e the present administration
has the money with which to pay of
the old debt the state must continue to
pay this enormous interest because the
administration wants to show the people
how wise and provident it has been.

The guarantee by the U nited State
Of sovereignty to New Granada was
obviously for the purpose Of keep.
Ing open the route across the
Isthmus. While its authors may have
have had a motive in the desire to draw
furt her attention to our attitude on the
Monroe doctrine, il must be admitted
that the first and principle
object of the provision on sovereignty
was the maintenance Of way. 1t can
hardly with justice be credited
against US that it was we who first
broke faith since the very portion Of
the agreement on which the sovereignty
clause was contingent-namely the
keeping open the canal route-has to
all practical purposes been already VIC
lated by the successor of New Granada,
Columbia. And certainly even had
Columbia not violated her part of the
agreement the mere recognition by the
United States OF an inevitable state of
affairs on the isthmus, can hardly be con-
strued into an attempt to stir up strife.
We fear that any such rather wild
jumping at conclusions will do very
little good either to the cause of estab-
lished precedent or to the democratic
party.
But after all what is the good Of talk
ing The canal ia bound to be built be-
cause it is great world enterprise-far
too great to be set aside by any party
or sectional jealousy and it is bound to
built by the United States because
the United States is by all odds
by her strategic position, by her Monroe
doctrine, by her marvellous engineering
and by her immense re-
sources the logical candidate for the
job. 1t makes very little difference
whether or no there are few TECHNICAL

ously hurt. Medical aid was quickly
summoned, but few moments after the

Whether Mr. Fox was thrown from his
seat, or whet her he bad aiig bted to adjust
some part OF the machine, aud was

the finger bars OF the machine, one pene-
trating the skull back OF the right ear.
There was another bad cut on the back OF
the head.
Death, however, was due to the neck
