OUR representative in congress, Ell. A.
Cooper, who is also chairman of the COM
mittee on Insular Affairs, has declared
himself in favor of a reduction of duties
on products of the Philippines. Mr..
Cooper accompanied Secretary Taft to
the Orient, and mas made study of the
tariff needs of the island. He says the
United States tobacco growers need have
no fear of the Philippine tobacco raisers,
because of the quality Of tobacco grown
in the islands and the limited produc
ton. In Mr.. Cooper's opinion, hemp is
to be the product to which the Filipinos
will turn their attention rather than to
tobacco and sugar. His position, how
ever, will not be pleasing to the sugar
and tobacco producers of this state. Mr.
Richard Wagner, president of the beet
sugar factories at Menomonee Falls and
Chippewa Falls, is out in an interview
in which he takes decided grounds
against the change: Mr.. Wagner evinced
much concern as to the proposed cut in
tariff on sugar grown in the Philippine
Islands. He says the beet sugar manu-
facturers of Wisconsin will find it more
profitable to move their factories to the
Philippines than to attempt to compete
with the cane sugar and cheap labor of
these tropical islands, with Wisconsin
beets The sugar tariff is one of the few
tariffs directly benetiting farmers. Near
ly 10000 Wisconsin farmers are already
interested in beet growing. More new
factories are being sought for by Wis
consin cities The industry will continue
to grow if tariff conditions are not dis
turbed. There are plenty of tropical re-
sources, rubber, for example, which can
be exploited to help out the Philippines,
without endangering any important
American industry. The worlds supply
of sugar is larger, now, than the con
sumption. This country is one that does
not raise enough for it's own use. Wis
consin has, within five years, developed
beet sugar industry which supplies
nearly one-third of the wants of it's own
inhabitants. The tariff on sugar has
made this possible, and Mr.. Wagner
agrees with the beet raisers that it would
be short sighted and unnecessary stab
at our own people to imperil this indus
try for the sake of the Filipinos.

Madisonian: LIZ ever state was cursed
with politics and politicians it is Wiscon
sin. Eleven mouths in each year are
given over to discussing politics. picking
out candidates. fighting over non essen
tials, and the other month arranging for
and attending caucuses and elections.
Much valuable time is consumed by our
legisla turo in remodeling election laws
and making new ones. The result is that
we are kept up ia the air all the time by
a few self-seeking politicians. What will
the harvest be? AS results near frutiop,
the harvest promises more smut and
chaff than kernel. Consistent political
agitation is slow poison to business and
sure death to honest government. 4 Il
If the agitators would let up for few
months and give honest people an OPP
portunity to do a little work for them.
selves, what glorious thing it would be.

Obituary.
AUGUST TRETEEN.

The summons of death came suddenly
to August Treteen Monday morning at
about o'clock while at work in the field
near his home on the Cemetery road
With scarcely any warning he fell, and
passed away before aid could reach him.
Mr.. Treteen was native of Germany
and was about 70 years of age. Heart
disease, trouble of long standing, was
the cause of his demise. Two sons, Her
man and Charles, survive him. Funeral
services were conducted from ST. John s
Lutheran church Wednesday afternoon,
Rev. j. G. Spilman officiating.

The special session of the Legislature
is quietly petering out So far no bill

necessity for calling the law makers to-

place this week

EXPECT A
DEBATE ON
CANAL BILL

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE first jmpor-
tant measure which will receive the at
tention OF tho senate will be the Panama
canal emergency appropriation bin and
its consideration Will begin this week.
Some senator's predict that It will be
come law before the close OF the week.
bu. others have expressed the opinion
that Gnal action will be deferred until
the week following. There will he no
effort TO prevent the passage OF the bin
in some shape, but there viii be some
opposition 10 the proposed restoration OF
the S. 5O0OOo, subtracted by the house
from the amount 10 be appropriated.
Regardless OF the sum the bill will be
utilized as a basis for the general dis
cussion OF the canal question. II is eX-
pected that the debate will deal largely
with the question as 10 whether the canal
shall b. constructed on the sea level.
The general expectation IL that there
will be comparatively little additional
legislation before the Christmas holiday.
Several other measures Will be vigorously
pressed during the session. but with the
exception Of the merchant marine bill the
sponsors OF the bills do not count upon
getting early considerable
Senator Galinger will call up the mer-
chant marine bill at the FIRST opportunity,
and Is hopeful that action viii not be
long deferred.
No one counts upon even getting a re-
port from the committees on the rfslroad
rate bill until some time after the holi-
days. The three measures mentioned are
considered the most important that will
come before the senate during the scs-
sion.
No LACK or BILLS.
The consideration by the senate OF the
joint statehood bill and the bill for the
reduction OF duty on Philippine impOrta-
tlons into the United States will neces-
sarily be postponed until after the holi-
days.
No one now expects any effort TO modify
the tariff unless in the direction OF Sen
ator Lodges bin providing for maxi
mum and minimum rate. The Massa-
chusetts senator regards this proposition
with much favor and Will press IL strenu-
ously II he receives any encouragement
to do so.
Much Of the time during the present
week will be devoted 10 the reorganiza-
tlon Of the committees, and there Is hope
that the announcement OF changes can
be made before Thursday
Senator Mitchells death will be an
nounced by Senator Fulton today. but ~
is not probable that the announcement
will cause an adjournment Of the senate
The appropriations committee. which
perhaps has the heaviest task 20 perform,
will first consider either the legislative
or the District OF Columbia appropria-
ton bill. But the outlook is that neither
OF these measures will receive committee
attention before the holidays.
That there Will be no lack Of legislative
propositions IS indicated by the 1858 bills
which have already been introduced In
the house since the opening OF this ses
sion. Many OF these are known as pri-
vate bills affecting only individual Inter
ests.
II is usual TO fix the holiday adjourn
ment for about Dec. q. 10 allow members
TO reach their homes for Christmas. While
adjournment is fully expected Thursday.
