At the entrance to the cemetery is the
grave of Major General George Crook
of whom General Sherman said, HE
was the greatest Indian fighter and
manager the army of the United States
ever had" Crooks grave is covered
with Il huge granite bowlder bearing
this simple inscription:
GEORGE CROOK,
Major General l.. S. Army.

General Meigs, Abraham Lincoln's
QuartcrmaSter general, who founded
Arlington cemetery, rests in the ground
which he assisted in defeating to its
noble purpose. With him are Generals
Baxter, Bcrdan, Burdettc, Ricketts,,
Rousseau, Watkins and Doubleday;
General Gresham, who was Cleveland'S
secretary of state; General John Glib
bon, who helped turn back Pickett's
charge at Gettysburg, and host of
others not less memorable.
Many and magnificent as are the in
dividual and regimental monuments in
Arlington, perhaps the most striking
feature of the cemetery is the vast lev
ell plateau given over to private sol
diers. Here seemingly endless rows of
headstones uniform i'll shape and style
stretch as far as the eye can see. Near
the Lee mansion is the famous tomb of
the unknown dead, where over 1000
bodies brought unidentified from the
great battlefelds of the civil war are
buried in wide, deep grave.
Officers of the regular army and navy
are more and more coming to feel that
after death they would like their bodies
to rest in the sacred soil of Arlington
For long time after the war the
eleven full regiments and something
over buried there, after Quartermaster
General MeigS made cemetery out
of Robert L. Lees park, held the
ground without enforcement.
Arlington was beautiful then 1t was
always beautiful. But for some rea-
son it was not until recently that the
regular army and navy officers turned
lOngingly to 1t as they died. Perhaps
it was the burial of Lieutenant General
Sheridan, commanding the army, and
Admiral Porter, ranking officer of the
navy, on the crest of the billowy green
hill running down from the noble man
sion which drew their subordinates to
this charming spot. Certain it is that
they are going there so rapidly that
before long the cemetery will have to
be enlarged.

number of communications regarding

said farmers throughout the state are
being considerably annoyed by city
people who take their guns and dogs
out into the fields Sundays. An at
tempt has been made to resurrect an
cid law that prohibits hunting on Sun
day. but the attorney general has rem

GOOD BUILDING WANTED.

From present indications Wiscon-
sin will in the near future be the
possessor of one of the finest state
capitOls in the United States. The
building commission has decided on
plans made by New York architect
which call for an appropriation OF
5000, 600 for the completion of the
building take the place Of the old
ramshackle affair which has done
duty for many years as a state
house and which was recently
partially destroyed by fire.
While it has not been decisively
settled that this large amount of
money shall be expended upon a
new building it is probable that it
will be. To this there should be no
objection. The state of Wisconsin
and it's citizens are in a prosperous
condition and can we'll afford state
house that will be a source Of pride.
A building of this character will not
be erected by the state very often
and while about it one Of the best
and most substantial should be Sc
lected. To such plan there will
be very little opposition.

Washington, Feb. Z. = Following
weeks of hearings and consideration
by the committee on interstate and
foreign commerce, as we'll as urgent
recommendations of the president on
the subject. the house of representa-
tiyes has begun debating the proposed
legislation looking to the regulation of
railway freight rates. This action was
taken only after determined opposition
by the Democrats, led by Williams of
mississippi, the minority leader to the
adoption of a rule which would shut
out opportunity to amend the bill. Two
ublcans-Southwic and Vreeland
of New 1ork-vOted against the rule
and one DemOcrat-Gaines of Tennes
see-voted for it. Otherwise party lines
were tightly drawn.
"Oh, Pshaw!" Says Gaines of Tennessee.
The rule which was adopted was
characterized by GroSyenor as fair to
the minority, because the Democrats
in caucus had determined to vote for
t-leir bill as an amendment to the Re
publican bill at the proper time He
said that six months from now they
would ''be swearing that this was their
measure GroSvenOr in answer to

is in keeping with the character of the
position he Gainesl occupies" Gaines
sought to explain that he did not in
tend to be offensive but Grosvenor
would not be interrupted.
Williams Denounces the Rule.
In den0uncing the rule Williams Ge-
clared that the object of the Demo
cratic caucus had been accomplished
That object. he said, was to let the
president of the United States and the
minority men of the majority party
know that there would be no mere
partisan and fractional opposition to Il

from amending your own bill with our

Williams then offered to surrender
every moment of debate if the rule
were SO amended as TO permit the vote
on three amendments. He even of
feled to give up the vote on the mi
nority substitute if the privilege he
asked was accorded DalZell. however
refused the proposition. The three
amendments Williams demanded We're.

to substitute a rate for the one de-
