What Other Editors Say.

WHITEWATER REGISTER: = 1t took
Kansas fifteen years to recover from the
diss strous plight into which the state
was plunged by bad leadersnip;a selfish
Inscriptions, masterful man pushed
ahead and was olindly followed by an
obsequious host consisting Of about ore
per cent of theorists ninety percent of
weaklings and the balance O. Adulla
mites. Let US hope that it will not
take Wisconsin third as long to make
recovery.
WAUPUN POsT:-The most impor-
tant feature of the session of the legis-
lature recently closed. aside from its
unusual length, is that it increased the
expenses Of the state about 5000, 900 a
Year, by providing for many new com
missions and adding to the number OF
Office hoders in various departments.
Of course the friends of the admins
tration viii say that they have raised
the license fees of the electric street
railways, and telephone companies,
which will bring in an increased reve-
nue. to the state, and also ad valOrem
taxation of railroads will also bring in
so much money that the increase in eX,
penses will not be noticed. But the
people who patronize these semi pub
lie corporations will have to pay the
expenses of government in the future
as in the past, if not by direct trx,
tuen indirectly through the medium Of
patronizing corporations which pay it
direct, 1t all comes out of the peo-
pie. no matter how you figure it.
WAUKESHA POsT:-The day of the
income tax will surely come. There
seems now to be no other process by
which anything like square deal can
be secured Oh the tax question. By
all means let us have thoroughly
good income tax law, and then let the
pl ison doors open &c the dishonest fell
lows who try to evade their duty oil
paying it.

PRESIDENT Roosevelt has given tc
Hon. Elihu Root of New York, the
portfolio as secretary of state in his

SECRETARY Taft is about to visit the

for two or three months. The object

revenue system in the island, the re

constabulary; the construction of l 800
miles Of railroad, provided for by act
Of congress last winter. The islands
came to US partly by conquest and
partly by surchase. they are 5000 miles
or more from the nearest seaport in
this country, inhabited by a race or
several races OF people who are not in

avoid becoming involved and the
natives would give us great trouble
and the outcome be disastrous to this

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent

The selection of a successor to John
Hay, the late Secretary of State. con-
stitutes the subject of greatest interest
and widest speculation in the national
capital these days and many names are
mentioned and the various qualities of
possible selections, good and bad, are
widely discussed. although it is appre-
ciated that only from Oyster Bay can
come definite news on the subject, II
is universally appreciated that the we'll
fare of the nation and the future of
President RoOsevelt's ministration
depend largely on the selection of a
capable successor to the deceased
statesman and diplomat, and the keen
est anxiety is lett lest the President
make a mistake in his selection, a
selection severely limited because of
the wholly inadequate salaries the
United States pays it's cabinet officers,
a salary so small that every member of
the cabinet is compelled to spend from
$4,000 to $25, 900 year more than he
receives. OF the Secretary of State,
who is compelled to do considerable
official entertaining, this is especially
true. 1t is generally estimated that
Mr.. Hay, although by no means extrav.
agant, incurred yearly Expense of $40,
900 a year, sometimes more, while his
salary was only 5000.
Popular Judgment has it that Elihu
Root, Ex-Secretary of War, will except
the portfolio of State and the fact that
he did except the Presidents invitation
to attend the funeral of Mr. Hay as the
official representative of the State
Department, seems to give color to the
impression. Of all the men mentioned
for the position Mr.. Root is perhaps as
capable as the most efficient, but there
is some reason for fearing that he will

One Of the surprising things of this
age, and one that should be discontin-
ued, is the abuse of men in public life
aud when they pass on give them the
praise. they were entitled to while in
the flesh. The lives of many noble,
true men have been embittered by
cruel SANDER and defamation, who suf-
fered untold mental agony by reason
of unmeritied censure and calumnity.
The reader can readily call to mind
many such instances in recent years.
The democratic party is no longer a
factor in the national politics OF the
state or nation because Of it's poverty
of broad ness and progressiveness. 1t
has lost the confidence and support of
the young men who are living in the
pulseing present. and not in the politi-
cal grave yards of the past. For years,
it has stood for nothing definite nor
positive losing opportunity after oppor-
tunity to take advantage of the mis-
takes of the dominant party, because
the leaders could not agree upon line
of action. There are many noble men
in the party who were it possible,
would discard it's moss grown princi-
Piles and adopt those which would be
in harmony with the spirit of the age
in which we are now living and acting.

ATTORNEY WOOTEN'S
SENTENCE REDUCED
The Change Made Because He
Gave Valuable Inforna-
ton to the State.

John w. Wooten, the attorney who
WIS mixed up in the Rothschild-Fed-
sral Bank scardals and was sentenced
TO nine years and Ave months at Sing
Sing last July. after being convicted OF
the larceny OF 5000 which Rothschild
had given him to pay the premium on
a bond furnished by a Cleveland surety
company, had his sentence changed
from the term originally imposed to
an indeterminate one OF not less than
three years nor more than six years
and ten months bv Justice Davy In
the Criminal Branch OF the Supreme
Court to-day.
The change was made at the request
Of Assistant District-Attorney Rand,
who told the Court that Wooten had
been OF great service TO the State In
supplying 1t with information on which
to base the various prosecutions which
have grown out OF the Federal Bank
scandal and the looting OF the Welssel
estate.

Mr.. Rand Informed the Court to-day
that Wooten had given his evidence
voluntarily and had had no promise OF
cIemency, Under the circumstances,
however, he said. he felt as though he
was entitled 10 some consideration.

a thing has ever been done In a Grim

under the section Of the code which
