THERE comes up from all parts Of the
state plain indications of WEAKNESS over
the noisy discussions which are agitat-
ing the dominant party. Every one is
weary of the gospel of discomfort and
discord and hatred which has been
preached the past three years. Down in
their hearts there are few people who
believe that everybody but themselves
or their family or their coterie of friends
is a scoundrel and fit subject for prison
walls or the galloWs. We are not race
of Bedouins; we do not believe in hav-
ing every mans hand turned against
every other mans; we have no liking for
the new doctrine that our beautiful
Wisconsin is a hotbed of all evil growths,
the home and abiding place of all posi-
BILE business and political corruption; we
do not like to have our chief executive
leave his office and tour the states, ad-
vertising his commonwealth as deserv-
ing the detestation Of all good people
everywhere, as a veritable Botany Bay Of
rogues, leper colony to be Stunned
with horror by everyone seeking a home
We are tired of all this; is it not time to
look for and work for a change, for a re-
turn in spirit and effort to the days Of
peace and frierdliness and unity?---

JUST as consistently and decently the
Dane Co. Fair Association might have
extended an invitation to Mr.. Bryan, or
Mr. Debs or Mr.. Neal Brown, or Mr..
Mayor Rose, with the wide-open privi-
lege of ventilating their particular ideas
of things political. When an agricult-
ural society so prostitutes itself to pea
nut politics as to convert its annual ex-
hibition into factional rally, aided and
abetted by political committee, the
hour for that agricultural society to hang
out the red flag and 60 out of business
has struck. Gov. La Toilette is seeking
every opportunity to exploit his particu-
lar heresies, to denounce the railroads,
to assail the business interests of the
state, to insult the members of the legis-
lature, to traduce every newspaper that
antagonizes him and to array honest
labor against honest capital. That he
should be assisted and encouraged in
these mischievous assaults by an organ
ization, mostly farmers, Haunting the
name of an agricultural Society,"" is, to
put it decently, almighty surprising. For
one The Hub files it's protest against
such despicable thimble-rigging. -

The GAINESVILLE Traction Co. Allows the
Franchises at Edgerton and James
willie to Expire.
The GAINESVILLE Traction company Off
cially announced Thursday that it would
not build the proposed 100000 line
from GAINESVILLE to Madison, owing to the
clause in the franchise which made its
life thirty five years instead of fifty years
The company is backed by a Cleveland
syndicate.
1--WE would rather take our chances
said one of the officials of the line, sin
cooperation with the GAINESVILLE men
who wanted Il franchise at the same
time we received ours, than to have to
try and finance the new road on thirty
fve-year basis. II the GAINESVILLE men
can get better terms than we have been
offered it would be better for all con-
cerned to let them get their franchise
and then we can do something toward
the cooperation of the companies"
The Gazette IN speaking of the project
says:
'The franchise will be allowed to 60
by default" said Attorney T. S. Nolan.
He further stated that II. II. Clough
never gave his assent to the thirty-five
year clause out, on the contrary, wrote
a letter 10 the council before the fran
chise was passed upon, stating that the
time should be fifty years, no matter to
whom it was granted.
The decision was reached after care
full consideration of the cost of con-
struction in material and labor, which is
exceedingly high at this time, and the
poor market for securities. II. r. New
comb, president of the Citizens Savings
4 Trust Co., of Cleveland, in letter to
H. H. Clough, dated September 2 ad-
vised the acceptance of the franchise
without the alterations asked for.
While it is his opinion that no good
business men will undertake separate
proposition from GAINESVILLE to Madison
at this time, because they cannot do sc
without mourning serious loss, yet in
event the road is built, he is also certain
that the present line will reap practical
ly the same benefit as if built by itself
except the advantage of the present
property of supplying power to the whole
system.
He states emphatically in conclusion
that the company is not and never ha:
been Spectator in franchises and doe.
not care to procure them unless it is ex
pecting to use them AS soon as it is prac
.tical to do 50.

IT DOESN'T matter whether Senator
Whitehead was permitted to answer Gov.
La Follette's attack upon the integrity
of the members of the last Legislature at
the Evansville fair or not; the incident
has served to call attention of the public
to an administration scheme of mixing
pumpkins and politics that is becoming
quite distasteful to the common people
on an off year. The newspaper notoriety
given the matter has accomplished about
all the Senator could have wished for.

In REPLY to question raised by the
board of review of the city of Edgerton
the state tax commission has rendered
an opinion holding that under its inter
probation of the new law providing for
the taxation of railroad property on an
ad valorem basis the real estate upon
which is located warehouses owned by
private parties, and being within the
right of ways of railroads, is not taxed
like the property of individuals, but as
part of the physical property of such
railroads
