No Salary Increase.

Indications of the senate's overbur-
dening wealth have been brought to the
service in that bodys summary disposal
of the resolution adopted in the assem-
bly, which provided plan for an in
crease in the solon's salary from $500 to
$1,000. 1t was proposed to hold a con-
stitutional convention, and there raise
the salary Senator Hatten declared, in
speaking against the plan, that the work
of a state legislator was done for honor
and not for the pecuniary end. Sena-
tor Stevens, in gentle tones, then re-
marked that all were not millionaires,
and urged the resolution be adopted.
Evidently the senate believed that if the
members weren't millionaires, they
were right next door, for it jumped on
the document with both feet and buried
it under vote of 81 to g. Those voting
against the move were: Senators
Beach, Bird Burns, Frear, Hatten, Hud-
nall, Kreutzer Martin, McGillivray,
Morris, Munson, North, Rogers, Roehr,
Sanborn, Smith, Stondall, Stout, White
head, Wright and Wylie. Senators
Froemming, Johnson, Noble, Randolph.
Rummel, Stevens, Wilcox, Wipperman
and Wolff voted for the bill.

BILL TO GOVERNOR
RATE MEASURE UNANIMOUSLY
PASSED BY ASSEMBLY.
CERTAIN TO BECOME A LAW
Nothing But La Follette's Signature
Is Lacking to Put Enactment
Into Operation-Other Leg
islatiye News.

CIV. w. Garrison, Staff Correspondent)
Madison, Wis, June 5.-Again the as
sembly has been asked to pass upon rail
road rate commission bill, and with the
same good-naturedness with which it
met the previous advance, the lower
branch, by unanimous vote, concurred
in the substitute measure which the SEN
ate passed some time ago. Numerous
amendments were offered, but nearly
all were rejected. One addition which
proposed elective instead of appointive
commission, was severely deposed. Sew
eral amendments were added which
strengthened the clauses to which they
applied, but none made any material
change in the bill. The action of the as
sembly clinches the governors victory
in the senate, and the Wisconsin rate
law is now almost fact. The measure
has gone back to the senate and the
slight amendments attached by the
lower branch have been concurred in.
The measure is in the hands of the gov
ernor, nothing but his signature now
lacking to make the bill a statute.

RAILROAD RATE LEGISLATION
Tt Is Unconstitutional and Unneces-
sary to Contiscate the Property
of the Railways.

Testifying before the Senate Com
mittee at Washington, Interstate Com
merce Commission Prouty said in dis
cussing the proposition to give to that
Commission the power to regulate rail-
way rates:
Il think the railways should make
their own rates. / think they should
be allowed to develop their own bush
ness. have never advocated any law,
and I am not now in favor of any
law, which would put the rate making
power into the hands of any COM
mission or any court. While it may be
necessary to do that some time, while
that is done in some states at the pres
ent time, while it is done in some coun-
tries, / am opposed to it. The
railway rate is property. 1t is all the
property that the railway has got. The
rest of its property is not good for
anything unless it can charge = rate.
Now 1t has always seemed to me that
when rate was fixed, if that rate was
an unreasonable rate, it deprives the
railroad company of it's property pro
tanto. 1t is not necessary that you
should conflscate the property of
railroad; it is not necessary that you
should say that it shall not earn three
per cent. or four per cent. When
you put in a rate that is inherently
unreasonable, you have deprived that
company of it's rights, of its property.
and the Circuit Court of the United
States has jurisdiction under the four
teenth amendment to restrain that.
I have looked at these cases
great many times. and can only
come to the conclusion that railroad
company is entitled to charge a fair
and reasonable rate, and if any order
OF a commission, If any statute of a
state legislature, takes away that rate,
the fourteenth amendment protects the
railway company"

Advance Capitol Solution.

Another step toward the solution of
the capitol problem was taken when the
senate, by decisive vote, passed the
committee measure which was reported
recently by the committee on capitol
and grounds. The measure merely pro-
vides for beginning on the big piece of
construction, and it is expected that leg
islatures following will contribute
their share to the work. The bill pro-
vides preliminary Expenditures aggre-
eating $658,000 for new capitol build
ing. OF the amount S450,000 is provided
for in appropriations, the unexpended
balance of the 100000 authorized for
capitol repairs two years ago is applied,
and $4,000 of money set aside as an in
surance fund by the state is also de-
voted. Before the session agreement
was reached between the members of the
committee on capitol and grounds and
the claims committee whereby conflict
was avoided over some of the amend
ments proposed. 1t was agreed to amend
the bill providing for new competition
and to return the plans of Cass Gilbert.

Dam Bill Unconstitutional.

Attorney General Sturdevant has rem
dered an opinion holding that the bill
to empower the Eau Claire Dells I'M
provement company to raise the dam at
Eau Claire from Is to 80 feet would be
invalid if it should become a law. The
bill was referred to the attorney general
by the senate committee on judiciary
for an opinion as to it's constitutionality
should it be passed. The fight over the
proposition to raise the Eau Claire dam
has been one of the sharpest and bitter
est of those during the entire session.
Numerous hearings have been had be-
fore committees on the different bills
covering the subject, and scores OF lead
ing citizens of Eau Claire have appeared
in favor of or against the measures.
